Chapter 1552: Gla.s.s Cup

Translator: Lonelytree

As soon as Lin Yuelan announced the start of the wine tasting, twenty beautiful women walked out. They were all dressed in the same clothes and had the same hair accessories. They once again stunned everyone.

However, what was even more shocking was the transparent wine gla.s.ses on the womens trays.

Oh my G.o.d! Is this a wine gla.s.s? Many people exclaimed. But why is this wine cup transparent? Its even more transparent than window paper! Wow, are these silica cups from overseas?

But if the overseas silica cup is sold here, it will be sold at a sky-high price.

Looking at these cups, they are crystal clear and beautiful. One of them should be priceless, not to mention that there were hundreds of them. No matter rich the princess of Guguo was, buying so many silica cups at once must have cost a lot, right? Someone asked doubtfully.

No, havent you noticed that these silica cups are more transparent than those overseas? Someone immediately asked in puzzlement.

Thats right!

Yuwen Longyan and the others were shocked by the appearance of these transparent cups.

The royal family did have silica cups, which were given to the Longyan

Country by those overseas businessmen. Of course, the tributes were the best.

But even so, the offerings were far inferior to the gla.s.s cups that appeared here,

Also, there were a lot of silica cups here.

Yuwen Longyan asked in surprise, Girl, where did you get so many silica cups?

Lin Yuelan took out two cups from a waiters tray. One was for the emperor, and the other was for the crown prince. Then, she took one for herself. After that, the waiter walked to each of the distinguished guests. It was obvious that they wanted them to take a cup each.

Everyone carefully took out their cups.

These cups were goblets, so there was no need to teach them how to hold them.

Then, Lin Yuelan explained, Your Majesty, this is not a normal silica cup. Its a gla.s.s cup.

Everyone p.r.i.c.ked up their ears to listen to Lin Yuelans explanation about the cup.

Yuwen Longyan was confused. Gla.s.s?

But what was gla.s.s?

Of course, this was the question in everyones heart.

Lin Yuelan didnt know which industry the gla.s.s production would be allocated to at first. Would it be the furniture industry or the housing construction industry?

However, considering various reasons, Lin Yuelan started a separate gla.s.s industry.

After all, this item was more valuable than furniture and houses.

If she placed it directly under her name, those who wanted to get their hands on the gla.s.s would have to think carefully.

Since the gla.s.s had been manufactured, it was already a feature of the housing construction company to install gla.s.s windows in the rooms. This formed an open cooperation with the housing construction company.

In addition to the woodworking workshop, there were also several independent workshops. One was for furniture, one was for farming tools, and one was for commercial tools, such as various commercial cabinets.

However, after the gla.s.s was produced, Lin Yuelan planned to set up another gla.s.s workshop.

The purpose was clear. Of course, it was to sell gla.s.s furniture, such as gla.s.s cups, gla.s.s cabinets, and gla.s.s coffee tables. This way, Lin Yuelan would have an open cooperation with the woodworking workshop.

Lin Yuelan smiled and said, This gla.s.s is a new material that I recently developed. It is colourless, odourless, transparent, and translucent. At that time, I had a flash of inspiration and immediately thought, would it be better to make this thing into a goblet and use it to drink red wine? In the end, it turned out to be true!

Yuwen Longyan asked curiously, Hey, girl, how did you come up with gla.s.s?

Lin Yuelan said in embarra.s.sment, You know, I built a big house in Taoyuan Village, but it doesnt feel bright enough. After coming to the capital, I saw the gla.s.s cups sold by overseas merchants and was instantly inspired. I bought a gla.s.s bead at a high price, and after studying it, 1 invented this gla.s.s!

After hearing Lin Yuelans words, the people who were listening to her instantly felt that it was really infuriating to compare themselves to her.

Although the overseas merchants sold silica at a high price, most of the people present were not short of money. They would at least buy one or two pieces of silica and keep them at home.

They only considered keeping it at home, but none of them wanted to study it.

After all, this thing was too expensive.. If the thing was damaged and something was not developed, wouldnt the gains not make up for the losses?
