Chapter Seventy-Three: The Ancient Kiln of the Shen Family
Shen Meng looked around and said, "I know there's a twenty-four-hour restaurant not far away, go there." ”
After finishing speaking, he took the lead and walked forward, and Sun Hancheng followed from behind.
Soon after, the two came to a 24-hour restaurant not far away, the store was not very large, and most of the people who ate here were some brothers and sisters who ran taxis at night, and they ordered some food and then the two sat down to eat.
Shen Meng obviously didn't have any interest in eating, and watched Sun Hancheng eat for a while and said, "It's almost, hurry up and tell me what you're going to do." ”
Sun Hancheng swallowed the food in his mouth and said to Shen Meng, "You are looking for that Song Dynasty maritime map, do you have any clues?"
Shen Meng hesitated a little after hearing this: "I can only find someone to inquire about clues, as long as I find the seller, I will buy it as soon as possible, so as not to cause trouble." ”
Sun Hancheng smiled slightly after hearing this and said, "So, you just don't have any clues, do you need my help." ”
Shen Meng looked at him with wide eyes and said, "So you mean this, if you want to help me find someone, of course I am very happy, but tell me about your conditions." ”
Shen Meng found that she had fallen in love with doing business with Sun Hancheng, because she found that every time she made a deal with Sun Hancheng, she took advantage of herself, and every time Sun Hancheng was just a request, but these requirements had not been fulfilled, and several of them were still owed.
Sun Hancheng ate a little more, then laughed at a loss, and said, "My request is very simple, I want to use your kiln." ”
Shen Meng was stunned after hearing this, and said with a hint of panic in his eyes: "What do you want to do with our family's kiln?"
Sun Hancheng said solemnly: "What can the kiln do, of course, it is to fire porcelain." ”
The Shen family is now one of the largest families in Nanjiang, you must know that not everyone can open a private museum, although most of the collections are now donated by the public, but at the beginning of the landscape museum, it was really the Shen family's private collection.
Without some family strength, who can get so many antique cultural relics of genuine value, even if it occupies an unfamiliar area, the scale of the Nanjiang Museum is not something that a family can build.
In fact, the Shen family has been doing the work of firing porcelain since the Qing Dynasty, and the original porcelain firing after the founding of the People's Republic of China has been greatly impacted, most of them have become state-owned, most of the private kilns have been destroyed, and those that have not been destroyed are not profitable, and many old craft firing processes have been lost at that time.
Although the ancestors of the Shen family were porcelain makers for several generations, and because of the depression at that time, they almost couldn't do it, and in the end, it was Shen Meng's grandfather who found business opportunities with flexible thinking.
At that time, the policy was slightly liberalized, not so strict, seeing that the national leaders liked to use white porcelain cups with lids, Shen Meng's grandfather took several juniors of the Shen family to open a kiln to fire this kind of white porcelain teacup, because the production process is good, so it quickly became popular in various places.
At that time, not only in Nanjiang, but also in several surrounding provinces and cities used the Shen family's porcelain cups, and even exported to Yanjing and other places.
The Shen family earned the first pot of gold at that time, and also had a relationship with some people on the **. But after this business became popular, many kilns began to follow suit, and the price of white porcelain teacups became lower and lower, and the kiln could not make much money.
Shen Meng's grandfather was not a conformist person, and when he saw that the kiln was no longer profitable, he immediately began to change careers and go to the sea to do business.
Not to mention, this time the old man gambled on it again, and caught up with the reform and opening up, and the Shen family's enterprises became more and more smooth, until they finally became one of the largest enterprises in Nanjiang.
At that time, the place where the kiln was fired was the backyard of Shen Meng's old house, and with the development of the city, the original desolate and remote kiln mouth was already in the urban area at this time.
The surrounding area is already high-rise buildings, but the Shen family has already bought the land and built the Shen family compound around it, and the protection of the Shen family has preserved the old kiln that brought good luck to the Shen family.
Many people have forgotten that the Shen family started with a kiln, so as soon as Sun Hancheng mentioned this matter today, Shen Meng was immediately surprised.
"Our kiln hasn't been used for a long time, and it's impossible to use it anymore. Shen Meng said resolutely.
Sun Hancheng had already finished eating at this time, wiped his hands and said, "Don't be in a hurry to refuse me, think about it, since the kiln is used to burn porcelain, what is the use of being abandoned all the time." ”
Shen Meng still shook his head and said: "No, my kiln has not been used for decades, let's not let you use it, it's hard to say whether you can use it now." ”
Sun Hancheng said confidently: "You can rest assured that you can definitely use it, if you can't use the big kiln, you can definitely use the small one, didn't your Shen family use that small kiln to burn some handicrafts the year before last." ”
Shen Meng looked at Sun Hancheng with a surprised expression and asked, "How do you know so clearly about our family's affairs." ”
Sun Hancheng said with a smile: "Don't forget what I do, there is nothing I don't know about something related to porcelain." ”
"I can't do anything about this, so I'll have to wait until I go back and ask my father. ”
"Of course you can, but quickly, because the later the time comes, the harder it will be to find the maritime map. ”
Shen Meng stood up and said, "I'll give you an answer soon." ”
After she finished speaking, she didn't go far before she suddenly turned around and asked Sun Hancheng, "Do you want to use our family's kiln to make a prize?"
Sun Hancheng laughed after hearing this and said: "You are also a cultural person, what is it called, I am imitating the ancients to burn a batch of exquisite handicrafts, you really think that I can reach the level of a fake by burning casually." ”
Shen Meng thought carefully for a while and said, "Forgive you for not having such a skill, and the identification of newly fired things will be very simple, so I also remind you that if you want to deal with the Heavenly Habitat, it is best to put away your little caution." ”
After finishing speaking, Shen Meng turned around and walked towards the door in the distance.
"Don't forget to check out. Sun Hancheng shouted at her from his seat.
Shen Meng turned around and glanced at him again, and said fiercely: "Forget it about killing you." ”
After Shen Meng left, Sun Hancheng just closed his eyes in his seat and stayed for a while, and then turned around and left together.
Back in Nanjiang Normal University's dormitory, it was already more than four o'clock in the morning, the room was empty, Xu Wen should go to Huang Xinrui next to her.
Although he didn't see Xu Wen, he didn't worry at all, because Shen Meng had promised to take care of Xu Wen, and it should be very safe to take care of Xu Wen with the Shen family.
Although the power of the Heavenly Habitat is very large, the Shen family in Nanjiang still has a very great influence, which is why he was not intercepted when he came back in Shen Meng's car tonight, knowing that he couldn't stop it, why bother himself.
Shen Meng would actually help him take care of Xu Wen, this was really a big favor for him, if Shen Meng was implicated, then it would be really difficult for him to let go of his hands and feet and fight against Heaven and Earth, but now it doesn't matter.
Early the next morning, Sun Hancheng changed into clean clothes and walked on the campus of Nanjiang Normal University, now Sun Hancheng is definitely a celebrity in Nanjiang Normal University, whether it is the influential teaching video or the appointment with students, it has made him famous in the school.
There are still a lot of applicants on the post on the Nanjiang Normal University forum, and it is said that those people are discussing how to deal with Sun Hancheng next time.
Sun Hancheng didn't care, just wandering around the school, and from time to time, people he knew greeted him from afar, and Sun Hancheng nodded in response.
Some of the more daring students even had the audacity to come up and talk to him and ask him what he would talk about in the next lesson.
Sun Hancheng could only politely tell them that he hadn't thought clearly about what to say, which made those students smile bitterly.
After going around the school for a long time, Sun Hancheng seemed to think of something, picked up his mobile phone and dialed a person's number.
After the phone rang twice, it was finally connected, and Qian Yizun's flattering laughter came: "Master Sun, you have something to find me, let me explain to you that I really didn't mean not to answer your phone just now, it was too noisy around and I really didn't hear it." ”
Sun Hanchengcai didn't bother to entangle him and said: "I invited you to dinner at noon, I don't know if you appreciate your face." ”
"Oh, Master Sun, look at what you said, what do you invite me to dinner, I invite you, how about we get drunk at noon, I know the manager over there, I will immediately book a more elegant private room, I invite you to reminisce about the past." ”
Sun Hancheng knew that this old farmer was such a style, some people wanted to ask the old farmer to do something, and the old farmer would not give him a good face, but for himself, it was another style, and the flattery made him upset, but he was no longer surprised.
At this time, it was almost noon, and Sun Hancheng took a taxi and headed towards the Drunken Immortal Tower.
Zuixian Lou can be regarded as a relatively high-grade hotel in Nanjiang, the hotel is also quite distinctive, it is a single-family nine-storey building, the antique flavor that is decorated is decorated, in addition to the first floor is the hall, and then from top to bottom is Lu, Sichuan, Guangdong, Suzhou, Fujian, Zhejiang, Hunan, Hui eight major cuisines each occupy a layer.
The chefs of each cuisine are the chefs who have won awards in the cooking competition or are family heirlooms, and the taste is outstanding and there are many innovations, so the reputation of this drunken fairy building has become more and more famous over time.
When Sun Hancheng arrived at the door, the old farmer was already at the door to greet him, and he was even a little more respectful than the waiter who was the most proud of the drunken immortal building and the meticulous service.
"Master Sun, you're here, what do you think we're going to eat today?"
Sun Hancheng said casually: "Find a high place to see the scenery." ”
The old farmer smiled slightly and said, "Then let's go up to the eighth floor, where the taste of the dishes I have been there is indeed authentic." ”
