Qing represents mysterious, wonderful, holy, and noble, and is an expression of admiration, love, dignity, and elegance. It is also the main color of nature, the color of green mountains and green pines, a symbol of vitality, and a respect and love for life.

People advocate green is full of vitality, spring rippling meaning, is the natural wealth, healthy Changchun, life is good intentions.

Looking up at the blue sky, overlooking the green mountains, and touching the green leaves, cyan is everywhere, which is pleasing to the eye and relaxed. The grass by the green river is long and old.

No matter when and where, that touch of blue or turquoise rendering always brings boundless imagination, like a green carpet paved with young leaves and buds, which makes people stop and taste, make people feel relaxed and happy, linger, and there is infinite poetry and painting between the simplicity.

Liao Tian saw that Su Yuan was satisfied, secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a smile: "One side of the water and soil raises one side of the people, our Longquan people are outstanding people, and the Fengyang Mountain at the source of the Oujiang River is Lin Hai." The elevation of Huangmaojian is 1929 meters, the peaks and peaks are continuous for 800 miles, the east is connected to Lishui and Cangshan Mountain, and the south is connected to Wuyi Xiumu. ”

"The tall trees are verdant and beautiful, the bamboo sea mother-in-law is colorful, the mountain spring is murmuring, the water is surging, the pheasant and are cuckooing, and the orchid and herbs are fragrant, and it is the source of the world's famous kiln in ancient times. ”

Lao Feng continued: "There are also rich porcelain clay, lush vegetation, and pleasant climate, laying the foundation for the long-term vigorous development of Longquan kiln in history, so celadon is a special water quality, blank, climate, material, glaze and various factors determine the noble and elegant quality." ”

Su Yuan laughed, patted Liao Tian on the shoulder and said, "Do a good job, as long as you can burn out high-quality products, send them directly to the island country, and let the little devil know what it means to be immeasurable!"

Lao Feng and Liao Tian glanced at each other, unable to suppress their excitement, and it was absolutely unashamed to be said by others. But Su Yuan is different, a dragon yuan slashed the so-called famous knife of the little devil in the world, swept thousands of armies, and killed all directions.

Sujia sword shop has blossomed everywhere, not only the national chain, but also the island countries and even Europe have begun to layout, really let the traditional crafts go abroad, winning the respect and pursuit of collectors all over the world.

Money is no longer the decisive factor for the two of them, if they can really reproduce the exquisite celadon and shock overseas, wouldn't it be a great thing for centuries to come?

Su Yuan left the workshop, and handed over the rest to Liao Tian to glaze, and agreed to open the kiln for the first time in three days, looking forward to the effect of the first batch of works.

Three days later, when he came to the kiln again, Lao Feng was ready, and he found four or five strong guys, with a clear division of labor, each performing his own duties, busy but not chaotic.

I couldn't help but sigh: "Now the old man, when I was young, I worked seven or eight hours a day, and I carried fifty or sixty tons of sagger in the kiln and lifted them back and forth. ”

"In the summer, the kiln is often forty or fifty degrees hot, shirtless, and water can be squeezed out of shorts. I can lift a sagger of 180 pounds at a time, which is no worse than that of a weightlifter!"

took Su Yuan to the mouth of the kiln and introduced: "The volume of the steamed bread kiln is 150 cubic meters, there is only one firewood mouth, the total length of the kiln is six meters, and it has to be burned from the front to the back, so it is easy to produce high local temperatures, and even some saggers will not be able to withstand the height collapse and block part of the fire road." ”

"In this case, we can only clear the fire, burn shallowly, and rely on the sending force of the furnace to exchange cold and hot air evenly, and reduce the temperature difference between the front and back. If the local temperature is too high, the fire will be dazzling and emit a silver light, which will test the eyesight of the pile master. ”

"Master, get ready to worship the Wind and Fire Immortal Master. ”

An apprentice ran next to him, Lao Feng nodded, and took Su Yuan to the main gate of the kiln, everyone stood in front, neatly and neatly, with tributes on the table, and a tablet in the middle.

"This is a ritual that must be performed before firing the kiln, to worship the Wind and Fire Immortal. ”

According to legend, the only pile master who left a name in history, in the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty, Jingdezhen Imperial Kiln Factory wanted to burn a batch of blue and white dragon jars, because the firing difficulty was very large, and it could not be burned for a long time. ”

Tong Bin, the master of the pile, jumped into the kiln in desperation, used his bones as a salary, and died in the fire. A few days later, when the kiln was opened, the big dragon cylinder was successfully fired. Later, the imperial court built the Youtao Ling Temple on the east side of the imperial kiln factory, which was the ancestral hall for Tong Bin, and enshrined Tong Bin as the wind and fire immortal. ”

"Let's go!"

After the worship was completed, Lao Feng looked at everyone and said loudly: "Sagger bowl!"

The apprentices moved the plain tires out of the car, sprinkled the old chaff ash on the bottom of the sagger, added a mat cake on it, and coated it with kaolin on one side of the porcelain, so that on the one hand, it can ensure that the porcelain is maintained in a horizontal state during the firing process, and on the other hand, the porcelain is not easy to stick to the bottom after leaving the kiln.

Glaze without ash is not done!

Glaze ash, also known as two ash, is a kind of fern mixed with limestone and other minerals, after extrusion and other steps, and then simmered and fired.

"Good!"

I only heard a loud sound in the wooden shed, full of power, this sound is a signal to command the potters to add firewood, the potters are busy like worker ants, putting the pile of pine firewood into the kiln mouth.

Lao Feng slowly sat on a wooden chair, calm as a mountain, domineering and exposed. Su Yuan nodded secretly, this is the momentum and majesty that an old stake should have.

Looking at the busy figures everywhere, it seems like being on the set of a movie. Lao Feng is the chief director, who is fully responsible, and when he gives an order, he begins to prepare.

Load the blank first, depending on the size of the blank tire to choose the sagger that meets the specifications, when loading should be clean and stable, without any tilt and shaking, hold it by hand or use a fine cloth strip to put the blank into the sagger.

The sagger containing the green body is transported to the kiln hall, and the kiln worker lays out the sagger according to the requirements of the porcelain glaze refractory and the porcelain standard with the arrangement order of stacking vertically, and the whole kiln sagger should be arranged in separate lines, which is stable and not oblique, and there must be a gap for the circulation of fireworks in the middle.

The firewood of the kiln is mainly used to cut the pine tree into firewood, because the pine wood has a lot of oil, the flame is long, and it is durable to burn. Firewood pickers carry firewood from the wharf and through the streets and alleys to the kiln.

"Ignition!"

Lao Feng stood up, took the torch from his apprentice, slowly came to the kiln, took a deep breath, and shouted, "Open the kiln!"

Everyone shouted together, and the sound was earth-shattering and full of momentum. Even Su Yuan couldn't help but be infected and became excited.

Lighting the kiln fire, Lao Feng and Su Yuan sat down to chat, now they don't have to engage in manual labor, they go to the fire to watch the fire every once in a while, and from time to time to observe the chimney outside the kiln shed, so as to judge the smoke exhaust ability.

Porcelain tiles are placed in different positions in the kiln, and the insiders call them Zhaozi, hook out the red-hot Zhaozi with a hook, and put it into cold water to cool, which is to reduce the error of judging the temperature, and then observe the kiln mouth after cooling.

A few hours later, Lao Feng came to the fire viewing port and spat directly into the kiln, and at high temperatures, according to the degree of burning and evaporation of the saliva spit into the kiln, he assisted in judging the temperature.

The firelight reflected the old man's face red, and after 40 years of experience, spitting was already a trivial thing for him.
