42. Unlock a new skill: Pottery
Bite!
"Congratulations to the host for exceeding 1 million video views and getting a lucky draw chance!"
Hey?
Xia Jie raised his eyebrows.
I didn't expect that not only could you draw a lottery if the popularity of the broadcast increased, but also if the number of video views reached a certain number.
Tsk, did the videos I uploaded have so many playbacks?
It seems that there are quite a few people who like life in mountain villages.
Xia Jie couldn't help but secretly rejoice.
"Then what are you waiting for, let's go in the lottery!"
Didi ......
The three-color wheel spun fast.
Blue!
Come blue!
Come on, let me see what blue is!
Xia Jie's eyes widened, and he secretly muttered in his heart.
Nine times out of ten, things in the world are unsatisfactory!
No, the slowed point of light continued to jump over the blue and then stopped on the red grid.
Congratulations to the host for obtaining a traditional Chinese handicraft skill: pottery!
Effect: Be able to master the traditional techniques such as blank molding, clay board molding, clay molding, clay strip plate building, kneading molding, plain color painting, etc., and produce a variety of exquisite ceramic utensils and furnishings.
There was no need for any preparation, and it was as if a skylight had suddenly opened in my mind.
From the atmosphere of the Shang and Zhou dynasties to the verisimilitude of the Qin and Han dynasties, from the grace of the Tang Dynasty to the beauty of the Song Dynasty, from the vigor of the Yuan Dynasty to the Seiko of the Ming Dynasty, and the exquisite ...... of the Qing Dynasty Porcelain from different dynasties, different characteristics, and different representatives have been presented in my mind.
Is this to keep yourself on the road of craftsmanship?
But this skill is very good, so that you don't have to buy pots and pans at home in the future, you can do it yourself.
Xia Jie felt his hands itch.
Now that you've unlocked a new skill, if you don't use it, it's not a brocade night!
But this skill is not as good as root carving, as long as there are materials, you can do it!
With the knowledge he mastered, Xia Jie found that the manufacture of traditional ceramics requires not only materials and tools, but also a kiln.
This one......
Seeing that Xia Jie suddenly fell silent, Song Xiaodong next to him asked with great concern.
"Brother Jie, what's wrong, did you get internal injuries from a wild boar?
"Phew, you kid was injured by a wild boar, what am I thinking?"
Xia Jie rolled his eyes and said angrily.
"Xiaojie, what's the matter, if you don't say it, let grandpa help you with the staff!"
Xia Changjiang looked at Xia Jie and asked.
"That's right, Brother Jie, if there is anything you say, let's help you find a way together!"
Song Xiaodong also echoed.
"Oh, that's right, I want to make some porcelain myself, but I don't know where there is a kiln!"
Xia Jie said calmly at the moment.
"Brother Jie, didn't you go to college, how can you still burn porcelain?"
Song Xiaodong asked with a look of surprise on his face.
"Why, if you don't take me to like this, buy your own books and come back to study!"
"Brother, no wonder you can be admitted to university, you love to learn, I can't learn it in my life!"
Song Xiaodong, who had a headache when he mentioned reading, said obediently.
"This kiln is ......"
The old man picked up the cigarette gun, lit the fire, took a deep breath, and said slowly.
"There used to be a brick factory in our village, and there was a kiln there, but then the business was bad and it went out of business, and it has been abandoned, and I don't know if the kiln inside has been demolished. ”
"Yes, yes, Brother Jie, there must be there, I didn't tear it down, I went there to catch crickets last year!"
Song Xiaodong said in hindsight.
"Okay, then I'll check it out tomorrow, if it works. ”
Xia Jie nodded and said with a smile.
After all, the kiln used to fire porcelain does not need the kiln at home to roast jade sweet potatoes, it has a certain technical content, and it cannot be built in three or two days.
If there is a ready-made one, it will be much more convenient.
"Xiaojie, you go to find the old village chief tomorrow, since you want to use it, you must say hello to the village. ”
Xia Changjiang followed and admonished.
Since the grandson wants to do something, then he, as a grandfather, naturally has to fully support it.
"Well, I know, grandpa, then I'll go back first, you should rest early, yesterday Dad called and told you to pay more attention to your body!"
Xia Jie slightly changed the role of the caller, and the old man listened with a smile on his face.
"Hehe, I know, I know, you guys slow down on the way back!"
"Brother Jie, I'll send you. ”
Song Xiaobao, who was completely overwhelmed by Xia Jie's one-punch superhuman demeanor, followed behind flatteringly.
"That's it, what to send, you kid should go back early, don't wander around. ”
Xia Jie waved his hand.
"Brother, our village is so big, what's going on!"
Song Xiaodong pouted.
To be honest, he's always wanted to go to the big city.
Especially at night, the neon flashes, the figures are swaying, eating, drinking, and having fun, compared to the mountain village that is basically dark after nine o'clock, it is much more exciting!
It's a pity that my father insisted on inheriting the family business by himself, becoming a grower in a mountain village, and not wasting the money he earned, saying that he would save to buy a house and beg for a daughter-in-law!
Alas, that's life.
If you can't change it, just bear it silently!
......
When he got home, Xia Jie was going to call Manager Ma to talk about the souvenirs, but after looking at the time, it was almost nine o'clock.
"Forget it, it's too late, let's fight again tomorrow!"
After washing, Xia Jie was ready to rest early.
Face the wind!
The phone rang suddenly!
Pick it up and look at it, hey, this person really can't help but chatter.
Originally, I thought it was too late and didn't call, but I didn't expect Ma Dakang to call.
"Hey, Manager Ma, hello!"
"Mr. Xia, I didn't disturb your rest. ”
The voice of Ma Dakang on the opposite side was full of festive energy.
"Oh, no, no, there is one more thing I want to tell you!"
Xia Jie said with a smile.
"Haha, I also have good news for you, you can tell it first!"
Ma Kang said happily.
"Oh, that's right, the souvenir you mentioned last time, my grandfather learned about the market. ”
"If you want to choose mahogany, Jin Sinan, the cost is not cheap, even if you use mahogany......"
Without waiting for Xia Jie to finish speaking, Ma Dakang immediately said: "This is easy to say, make 10,000 mahogany, do you think it's okay?
Well, since you're so impatient, I'm going to be in a difficult position.
"Okay, that's it, what about ......the cost?"
Xia Jie asked again.
If you make it, you don't want it, not to make the old man happy in vain, but to discount the cost!
"The cost is good, let's sign a commissioned creation agreement, our company will make half of the deposit first, and when it is done, pay the final payment, what do you think?"
Ma Dakang said very cheerfully.
"Well, that's the best!"
Xia Jie said with satisfaction.
"Manager Ma, what good news are you going to tell me!"
"Haha, that's right, your grandfather and the video you posted, now the oil pipeline network in foreign countries is on fire! Your grandfather's is almost five million, and yours is almost one million. ”
"Oh, so tall?"
Xia Jie couldn't help but be very surprised.
"We contacted a reporter from CCTV here and wanted to do an interview with your grandfather, I don't know if it's convenient?"
Ma Dakang followed.
The grandfather and grandson have now given a big face to the pumpkin video, so they naturally have to publicize it well.
"Uh, interview, then I'll ask grandpa when I go back, and I'll answer you tomorrow?"
"Okay, then I'll wait for your news!"
hung up the phone, thinking that the old man had worked in a mountain village all his life, and now he could become popular overseas, and he could also be interviewed by CCTV reporters, Xia Jie couldn't help but curl the corners of his mouth.
This life is really full of surprises!
