Chapter 142: Reasonable
Because he was in a hurry to give the calligraphy works to his grandfather, Lin Zhengqi waited for the handwriting to dry, then said goodbye and left in a hurry.
Meng Zitao chatted with Lu Yiqing for a while, and received a call from Xiao Likai, saying that he was already in the lobby of the hotel.
Meng Zitao asked him to rest for a while before going to Zhao Zhi's house, but Xiao Likai said no, he had already slept enough on the way, and said that now an experiment was in a critical period, and he was in a hurry to go back.
went downstairs, Meng Zitao saw Xiao Likai and his son-in-law Lu Junyi, seeing that Lu Junyi looked tired, it was estimated that he had a lot of driving time along the way, so he opened a room for him to rest.
Everyone went to eat first, and then Lu Yiqing drove, and Meng Zitao and Xiao Likai sat in the back to exchange things about the Porcelain Research Institute.
This car is a business car borrowed from Shu Ze's friend, and the middle of the cab and the back seat can be pulled up, and the voice is quieter, so that the people in front can't hear it.
"Master Xiao, the research you just talked about is it imitating the Yaochang Tianmu Lamp of the kiln?"
"Yes, if we can succeed this time, we will be able to achieve a ninety-five similarity, and if we use some means to burn the porcelain, I believe that it can achieve a ninety-nine degree of realism. Xiao Likai looked a little excited when he said the end.
Meng Zitao was also quite happy, after all, the ancient porcelain that opened the door to the generation cannot be 100% the same, and the similarity of ninety percent is already the limit, and I believe that few people can recognize it.
"So, our plan is about to succeed?" Meng Zitao asked happily.
Xiao Likai laughed, and then waved his hand again: "I can't say that now, as the old saying goes, those who travel a hundred miles are half ninety, as long as they haven't succeeded, they can't be too proud." ”
Meng Zitao said with a smile: "You are right, but this matter can only trouble you, I will wave your flag and cheer for you next to you." ”
Xiao Likai smiled: "You have invested so much money, I am always embarrassed that I have not produced anything, anyway, in a word, you just wait for my good news." ”
"Good!"
Meng Zitao then asked about other things: "By the way, how is Qi Lezi doing with you?"
Xiao Likai said: "He is very studious, and he is also very diligent, according to him, he has become familiar with some dealers, and if he is given some time, he should be able to make a name for himself in the circle." ”
Meng Zitao nodded, in fact, when he was in Sanyan, Qi Lezi said that he wanted to help him do things, he thought about the use of Qi Lezi, and finally felt that it was a better choice to be a broker on Qi Lezi's terms, of course, if it was an ordinary broker, he could find anyone, what he wanted Qi Lezi to do was to get in touch with some foreign businessmen to sell Xiao Likai's high-quality imitation porcelain.
Of course, whether it can be sold or not depends on the ability of the leper.
After the past few months, judging from the feedback from all sides, Qi Lezi is doing quite well now, and he is working hard enough, as for the reason, it is simple, because Pan Laowu's daughter was adopted by him.
After chatting with Xiao Likai for a while, Meng Zitao asked him to rest for a while, and woke him up when he got to the place.
Zhao Zhi now lives in a village in a small town under the jurisdiction of Shancheng, and also opened a kiln factory, usually producing some civilian porcelain, but according to investigators, he is also studying ancient porcelain technology, and Ming and Qing dynasty porcelain is very realistic.
In addition, there were no accidents or difficulties in Zhao Zhijia, if those high-imitation porcelain were indeed sold by him, it can only be said that his personality has changed.
got out of the car at the entrance of the village, Meng Zitao met the case-handling personnel sent by the department, because he didn't want to startle the snake, only one person was sent from the department, named Ling Yi.
Just as he was about to let Ling Yi get into the car, Meng Zitao saw a villager walking towards him, and when the villager walked in, he handed over a cigarette and said with a smile: "Big brother, I want to ask you about something." ”
"What's the matter. "The villagers took the cigarette and smelled it, and when they saw that it was a good cigarette, they were in a good mood.
"Is there a kiln factory in your village?" asked Meng Zitao.
"Yes, are you here to order porcelain?" the villager nodded.
"Yes, I've heard that the porcelain in this kiln is doing well. ”
"That's right, the porcelain made by Director Zhao is of very good quality, like bowls, plates, etc., our village people buy them from him. ”
"Did other bosses come to him to buy more?"
"Yes, but he is only a small factory, and the small boss orders a lot, and the big boss basically doesn't. It's strange to say, he has good skills, why don't he expand the factory, there are still people who can't get along with money these days!" The villager shook his head, feeling a little puzzled.
Meng Zitao thanked the villagers and said in his heart, if Zhao Zhi was secretly selling high imitation porcelain, why should he sell ordinary porcelain for civilian use?
The car stopped at the gate of the kiln factory, and looking at it from a distance, the kiln factory in front of me should be a dragon kiln in the traditional sense. The kiln is in the shape of a long strip, built according to the hillside, from the bottom to the top, like a dragon like a snake, hence the name. The dragon kiln adopts natural ventilation mode, using miscellaneous firewood, pine branches and other plants as fuel, and the flames in the kiln flow parallel to the bottom of the kiln. In addition, this kind of kiln is built on the hillside, the flame pumping force is large, the temperature rises quickly, the temperature rises quickly, and the cooling is also fast.
Meng Zitao looked at the door of the kiln factory, and there was another car at the door, and I don't know if it was from the kiln factory or the guest.
The group walked to the door of the kiln factory, Meng Zitao told the doorman that there was business to discuss, the doorman was not too enthusiastic, pointed inside, and asked Meng Zitao to find Zhao Zhi's son Zhao Ou.
The group went to find Zhao Ou according to the path pointed out by the doorman, during which they saw that some workers were working together in the division of labor, selecting soil, refining mud, drawing blanks, drying, glazing, etc., and the skills were very skilled.
Meng Zitao and Xiao Likai both stopped from time to time to take a look, after all, it is impossible for the Porcelain Research Institute to only research without output, and when it is on the right track, it will definitely have to be produced, and now these are all experiences.
After a while, they came to the outside of a grandfather's office, and Meng Zitao suddenly heard a familiar voice, and his heart moved, and he immediately walked into the office.
There were three people sitting in the office, a young man in his thirties, and two older people.
When the young man saw Meng Zitao, he was slightly stunned, and a look of panic flashed in his eyes, and then he calmed down, frowned and said, "Who are you looking for?"
Meng Zitao looked at one of the old men with a smile on his face and said, "It turned out to be the shopkeeper Xi, what a blessing!"
The owner of the familiar voice that Meng Zitao heard earlier was Xi Zhengzhen, speaking of which, he hadn't shown his face in front of his peers in Lingshi for a long time, and everyone didn't know his current situation.
Now that he sees Xi Zhengzhen here, Meng Zitao finally knows what kind of fame he is doing, and it is not surprising that those high imitation porcelains are passed down through his hands!
In addition, with the relationship between Xi Zhengzhen and Jiang Siyuan, it can also explain how the high melamine technology researched by Jiang Siyuan's subordinates was spread.
"Who the hell are you?" Zhao Ou asked again, his tone a little stern.
Meng Zitao smiled and said, "Zhao Ou, you should know what we are here for, right?"
Zhao Ou was flustered and reprimanded: "You are really inexplicable, we don't welcome you here, hurry up and leave me!"
Meng Zitao laughed: "Is your performance like this considered a weak heart?"
"Excuse me, what are you talking about?" an old man next to him looked a little puzzled.
Meng Zitao looked at his expression, it really didn't look like acting, a thought flashed in his heart, and said: "Old Zhao, I think you should ask your son a good question, and ask him what he did to hide from you?"
Zhao Zhi frowned slightly, and then his face showed a little gloomy, and he said to his son: "Zhao Ou, you tell me honestly, have you forgotten everything I said to Java?"
"Dad, don't listen to his nonsense!" Zhao Ou hurriedly quibbled.
"Say it quickly!" Zhao Zhi scolded.
Zhao Ou's face also changed: "Dad, do you believe me, or do you believe in an outsider!"
Zhao Ou's performance made Zhao Zhi disappointed and angry, pointing at Zhao Ou and scolding: "You bastard, I have always told you, don't touch those things, the money is inexhaustible, even if you make ordinary civilian porcelain, it is enough for us to live for the rest of our lives, can't your heart not be greedy?"
Zhao Ou was expressionless: "Dad, I don't have any big reason with you, just say a word, not everyone wants to stay in this poor ravine!"
