"This thing is worth 1,000,000 strings?" Li Yun was a little confused.
"It should be about the same. I have a glass cup at home that is much smaller than this. It is not as bright, but it is still worth ten thousand gold.”Empress Zhangsun said.
"Would someone really spend so much money to buy a toy?”Li Yun continued to ask.
"Ordinary people definitely can't do it, but those great clans are different.”Second Emperor Li replied," This kind of treasure that can be passed down for generations, even if it was a little more expensive, they would still buy it even if they exchanged it for land and treasures.”
"It's a pity that no one is selling it at all. Those with this treasure are all extraordinary and won't take it out easily.”
After hearing what he said, Li Yun was speechless!
So valuable?
If he had known earlier, he wouldn't have bothered with the perfume soap!
Why not just sell the glass!
The cost was low, and the production volume was high!
This was the disadvantage of not being able to get information!
In this era, even the national treasury was not rich. Li Yun really could not imagine that those aristocratic families still had the mood to spend such a huge amount of money to buy a toy!
The reason why he didn't do this business at that time was that he was worried that this thing would be too eye-catching and would be targeted by others if it were to spread.
If he had known that it was so profitable, he would have taken the risk!
"Old Li, don't tell me you also collect these things?”
Li Yun asked after a moment of regret.
Second Emperor Li was stunned for a moment. Why did he suddenly say this?
"I naturally like such a rare item. If there is one, there is no harm in collecting some.”
"Then I have to give you a reminder.”Li Yun shook his head and said," This thing is really worthless!”
If he remembered correctly, in another ten years, when the trade on the Silk Road reached its peak, many glassware would flow into the Great Tang every year.
At that time, due to the large stock, the value of the glass would definitely be greatly reduced!
If he really spent a huge amount of money to buy this item, he would have nowhere to cry!
Moreover, this thing was different from natural gemstones. It could be artificially made.
It would only depreciate, not appreciate, let alone become a family heirloom!
"This thing is not a treasure at all!”Li Yun continued," This is man-made!”
"Although the current Great Tang does not have this technology, in the distant West, this kind of thing has already become a very common object that even the common people can possess.”
"How is this possible?" Second Emperor Li shook his head and said," This kind of gemstone is more translucent than jade, but it has never been excavated, let alone created by humans.”
Li Yun sighed when he heard this. It was really difficult to communicate with the ancients!
Old Li's brain was still relatively active, but it was difficult for him to break away from the shackles of his inherent ideas.
"Forget it, you won't believe me no matter what I say. Follow me!”
After saying that, he brought Emperor Li Er and the others to the backyard.
Li Yun swept the floor with a broom and opened a wooden door.
They walked down the stairs and came to a spacious cellar.
He took out a lighter and lit the oil lamp.
Second Emperor Li and the others felt as if they had been struck by lightning!
They were stunned by the scene in front of them!
In this cellar, there were many wooden shelves on the walls, and on the wooden shelves were all kinds of glassware.
At a glance, there were hundreds and thousands of them!!
Second Emperor Li and Empress Zhangsun looked at each other and felt their mouths go dry!
Even though he was the ruler of a country, he was inevitably moved when he saw such a huge amount of wealth!
According to his previous estimation of the value of the glass, this house added up to at least five years of tax revenue from the national treasury!
Thinking of this, Second Emperor Li could not help but swallow his saliva.
"These things were purely made by me out of boredom. In the past, they were directly piled in the courtyard. If it weren't for the fact that there were too many of them in the way, they wouldn't have been moved here.”Li Yun stepped forward and said.
Second Emperor Li was still in a daze.
"Old Li, take a look at this."
Seeing that he didn't say anything, Li Yun took a glass object from the shelf and handed it to him.
With the help of the dim oil lamp, Second Emperor Li studied the item in his hand.
The more he looked at her, the more familiar she looked.
After a while.
"Why is this exactly the same as the Morning Drum on the Sky Bearing Gate?”
Second Emperor Li suddenly said in surprise.
The one in his hand was a miniature version of the morning drum used by Chang 'an to tell time!
Even the number of nails on it was exactly the same!
This item was Li Yun's proudest work.
Before he transmigrated, he had been to the old site of Chang 'an's Gate of Heaven Influence.
There was also a morning drum from the Tang Dynasty that was said to have been moved from a museum.
Li Yun fell in love with it at first sight. It was simple, desolate, and grand. It had a historical charm, so he had a very deep impression.
After he transmigrated, he spent a lot of effort to make this morning drum out of glass.
Just the sand alone was used up to a hundred catties!
It took more than two months!
It couldn't be helped. There weren't many entertainment programs in ancient times.
If he didn't find something to do, Li Yun was really afraid that he would die of boredom!
"Do you believe me now?" Li Yun patted Second Emperor Li's shoulder and said," Do you think a natural object can look exactly like the morning drum of the Sky Bearing Gate?”
"This thing, I really made it!”
After hearing this, Second Emperor Li and Empress Zhangsun felt their scalps go numb!
He looked at Li Yun with a rare expression. He lost his composure!
