Chapter 1477: Think About It YourselfEditor: Henyee Translations
This time, Yi Zilan personally brought the paper over.
The Emperor looked suspicious. He opened the paper and looked at it. After reading for a moment, he was even more confused. "This is..."𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝙬𝙚𝓫𝒏𝓸𝓿𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝓶
Yi Zilan said, "Your Majesty, what’s written on this paper is the formula for making this magnifying glass."
"What did you say?" The Emperor raised his head in surprise and looked at his cousin, who had lowered his voice to speak in front of him.
He asked excitedly, "Really? Can we make this magnifying glass ourselves? Quick, tell me in detail."
"Of course." Yi Zilan cupped his hands and said slowly, "Mrs. Shao said that she accidentally created this magnifying glass. Because she didn’t take it seriously when she made it back then, she only made this one. When she realized that this magnifying glass had such a magical effect, she wanted to make it again, but she never succeeded again. She didn’t know what went wrong. However, Mrs. Shao wrote all the materials she used on this paper. She said that if we want to make a magnifying glass, we can try following the steps on this paper..."
The Emperor pondered as he listened. In other words, the exact process and materials of this magnifying glass were not very certain.
"Therefore, what’s written on this paper is just a general method. As for how to operate it, do we need to work hard ourselves?"
Yi Zilan nodded. "That’s what Mrs. Shao said."
In fact, Gu Yundong really did not know how to make magnifying glasses. When she was an intern in her previous life, she had followed her team to visit declining old craftsmen.
Back then, that person had told her that glasses from ancient times were magnifying glasses and convex lenses.
He had done it in front of Gu Yundong once, so Gu Yundong had an impression of the process and the materials, but she had never personally done it.
To put it bluntly, she could only talk about it on paper.
Later, the craftsman had given the magnifying glass to Gu Yundong. In order to match the ancient craftsmanship, the frame was inlaid with a turtle shell. It was the one in front of the Emperor.
After the apocalypse, Gu Yundong had put everything in her room into her interspace, including the magnifying glass.
Now, she wrote down everything she had seen back then and handed it to Yi Zilan. Of course, it was a memory from many years ago after all. There might be some omissions or additions.
However, Gu Yundong believed that with the emperor’s capable craftsmen and people, as long as she gave them an idea, they would be able to create a future. With more research, they would definitely be able to create a magnifying glass. Furthermore, they might even be able to make glasses.
Gu Yundong was full of confidence in them.
Indeed, even if the materials were not very certain, it would still be a huge surprise to the emperor.
He tightened his grip on the paper and sighed with a smile. "This Gu Yundong always brings me good luck. She’s a talent. No, she and her husband. They’re both my benefactors."
This time, Yi Zilan was very sure that he had heard the Emperor call out Gu Yundong’s name. He was also very sure that when he mentioned her, he was talking about Mrs. Shao.
And from what the Emperor said, he seemed to be quite familiar with Gu Yundong?
What else did Gu Yundong bring?
Yi Zilan could not help but ask softly, "Your Majesty, do you know Shao Qingyuan’s wife? Do you know her name?"
The emperor folded the paper and carefully placed it in the box containing the magnifying glass.
After closing it, he raised his eyes and glanced at Yi Zilan.
