Xiao Zhang sighed, and secretly said that what Su Yuli described before was indeed true......

Green tea has a very strong flavor......

He Xiyu stretched out one of his fingers and gently hooked it at Xiao Zhang......

"Come with me!"

Xiao Zhang's heart is refusal......

Then with He Xiyu, he slowly walked towards the factory.

As Xiao Zhang entered the factory, the working environment of Liu Chengfeng's small Tang Sancai firing factory also entered Xiao Zhang's eyes.

The masters at the front are washing the metal ore......

"These are the metal ores of Tang Sancai's special glaze......" He Xiyu pointed and said.

Xiao Zhang nodded.

"These are kaolin, the mud required for firing Tang Sancai has particularly high requirements for kaolin, and it needs to be refined many times, in order to refine the mud carefully, because the temperature of plain firing is higher than the temperature of glaze firing, so the requirements for mud are very high......"

Xiao Zhang continued to visit......

"This is where the mud goes into the mold!" He Xiyu said.

This is also the place that Xiao Zhang needs to visit the most.

There are basically two methods of Tang Sancai molding.

The first is similar to Ru porcelain, that is, the wheel system, that is, the mud is drawn on the wheel, and the firing is generally round Tang Sancai utensils.

For example, some plates, some round jars of Tang Sancai works.

And the second method, which is used by more people, is stenciling!

This firing method is a commonly used method for the public, because the Tang Sancai fired is dominated by changeable figures and animals.

There are also two production methods for molding, and the first one is a solid mud with moderate hardness and softness.

This second type is a diluted slurry that can be subsequently solidified......

The second type belongs to pouring the abrasive to make it form......

The first is to put the mud in the mold to make it form......

No matter what kind of thing, it is inseparable from the most critical and important point!

If it is to fire plates, cups, and jars, this kind of Tang Sancai does not need so much trouble, directly according to Xiao Zhang's method of firing Ru porcelain blanks on weekdays, and directly get on the wheel, in terms of this kind of round utensils, Xiao Zhang has few opponents.

However, the most famous of these three Tang Dynasty is the porcelain of those figures and animals......

This makes Xiao Zhang want to participate in the project of Tang Sancai in this competition, and he needs to prepare the raw materials of the mud, the raw materials of the glaze, and the gypsum materials needed to make the mold in advance!

And these things are all things that Xiao Zhang does not have.

And making these things is a waste of time and effort.

Seeing that the competition was imminent, Xiao Zhang didn't have time to get this mold in advance.

And this mold is the most unfoolable thing.

Because this mold is the step that best reflects the fineness of Tang Sancai.

Xiao Zhang looked at Liu Chengfeng's mold here......

Xiao Zhang was not satisfied......

The molds here are a little out of class......

In the eyes of Xiao Zhang, a master-level Tang Sancai theory master and a master-level Tang Sancai firing technique, these molds cannot be used by themselves.

Xiao Zhang had to use the mold he had made himself, so that he could participate in the competition with peace of mind......

In fact, these processes are all in Xiao Zhang's mind, and they are more refined.

Xiao Zhang just wants to merge through the on-site viewing and the process in his mind!

This ensures that nothing goes wrong.

"The mud made of this mold must be kneaded evenly, and the softness and hardness must be reasonable!" He Xiyu said on the side.

Looking at Xiao Zhang's gaze, He Xiyu continued: "The pores in this mud must be kneaded out, and the air must be discharged! The softness and hardness of this mud must be mastered, if it is too soft, the mud will be too sticky, and the impression will not be easy to print...... If the mud is too hard, it will cause a lot of cracks in the future, so the softness and hardness of the mud must be mastered. He Xiyu pointed to a large piece of mud on the ground and said.

Xiao Zhang nodded and said, "I understand, this is the mud needed to burn Tang Sancai's carcass, I want to go and see the place where the mold is made now!"

He Xiyu was stunned......

There are ready-made molds all over the place, why do you have to make molds?

"We don't have a fixed place to make molds, because they can be reused, and they are not very damaged, unless they are worn to a greater extent, they will be replaced, or new molds can be made, all here. He Xiyu pointed to a row of boxy white gypsum blocks with black lines on the ground.

Xiao Zhang looked at it carefully.

"You see this row is all molds used to pour mud, and this row is suitable for the kind of mud that is moderately soft and hard, no matter what kind of mold we have here. He Xiyu said with a smile. ”

"But I just want to see where the molds are made...... Xiao continued.

"You ......" He Xiyu is really strange......

"Let's go......"

He Xiyu took Xiao Zhang towards another workshop.

There was no one in the workshop.

But there are many bags of gypsum powder and some clay on the ground.

"That's the raw material for making the mold, and there's no one here...... What are you going to do, do you want to try it yourself?" He Xiyu smiled.

This is a place that He Xiyu has never touched......

"I'll take you to see the mouth of the vegetarian kiln in a while, and now there happens to be a kiln being fired, and then we'll go to dinner......" He Xiyu said to Xiao Zhang.

Thinking of Xiao Zhang, he shook his head.

Then Xiao Zhangyi directly reached out and took the mud of the large piece of clay placed on the table in his hand.

"Xiao Zhang, what are you going to do?" He Xiyu was stunned, how could this still be started?

Xiao Zhang sighed, it was really not that he wanted to get started, but he really couldn't help it......

A large number of Tang Sancai's firing skills in this mind are presented in my mind!

Xiao Zhang simply lingered......

Especially now that Xiao Zhang is still very lacking in this own mold......

Now looking at this Liu Chengfeng, there are ready-made raw materials here.

How could Xiao Zhang still be able to bear it?

Picking up a piece of clay with his hand, Xiao Zhang directly began to press it.

He Xiyu was surprised, what was he going to do?

This is Tang Sancai's realm!

It's not the realm of your Ru porcelain?

You have to stretch out your hand to have a degree!

Don't slap yourself in the face......

And what are you doing here? Make your own mold?

I've said I'm full of molds here, if you really want to practice, just get that mold!

Do you have to make your own molds?

The key question is whether you will?

This interlacing is like a mountain......

This Ru porcelain and Tang Sancai are separated by 108,000 miles......

This is not the last time you distinguished the authenticity of a pendant, solving a fried kiln can prove that you can play Tang Sancai!

Hey, Xiao Zhang, did you hear what I was saying?

Why are you still pinching the villain?

The mold of this Tang Sancai character maid is very demanding!

Can you?

Do you think you're playing house?
