Lu Zhixing was stunned for a moment, and Uncle Ghost couldn't help but look at Tang Yi.

"Mr. Lu, don't you want to take on an apprentice?" Seeing this, Tang Yi put down his chopsticks and diǎn a cigarette.

"I don't want to." Lu Zhixing replied very simply, paused, and added, "People who can learn this craft are too difficult to find." ”

"Dǐng-level qualifications are hard to find." Tang Yi said, "However, as long as the qualifications are superior, you can teach them if you want to." ”

At this time, Uncle Ghost interjected, "Yes, Mr. Lu, you just dialed me for a while back then, and I can be regarded as a character in the porcelain capital!" ”

"You are wrong, it is not difficult to find people with this kind of qualifications, as long as you have a normal IQ, artistic sensibility, and a diǎn skill. Like you said, if I want to teach, I can teach it. Lu Zhixing took another sip of wine, "What I said is too difficult, it is too difficult for people with good character to find and examine." ”

Only then did Tang Yi understand that what Lu Zhixing said meant this.

can endure hardship, can endure loneliness, and can dǐng resist temptation. Otherwise, this craft will be a success, and the antique shop will be mixed, as long as you want to make money with a black heart, the banknotes may roll in like flowing water. In this way, the higher the level, the greater the posteriority.

Tang Yi laughed, "Don't hide it from Mr. Lu, I really have this idea, and I also found such a person." ”

"Tell me about it." Lu Zhixing responded.

"I have the skill of making purple clay pots, but because of my grandfather's deathbed entrustment, I have not relied on this to make money. Holding a monk hat pot worth tens of millions of Gu Jingzhou in his hand, he was willing to work as a waiter in a teahouse. You say, can such a young man do it? ”

"How old?"

"Twenty years old."

"Twenty years old? Where did Gu Jingzhou's pot come from? ”

"This is what Gu Jingzhou once gave to his grandfather, and his grandfather once got Gu Jingzhou's finger diǎn, and his purple sand craft was taught by his grandfather."

"What's his grandfather's name?"

"Sui Donglin."

"Is that him?" Lu Zhixing put down his wine glass.

"What, you know?"

"I don't know." Lu Zhixing said leisurely, "This Sui Donglin is ●∵dǐng●∵diǎn●∵小●∵ said, .≥.o↑s_(); A very talented person, not to mention the purple sand skills, in terms of porcelain manufacturing, he seems to have a natural instinct, and he is particularly accurate in shrinkage and weight. ”

The weight is easy to understand. If you don't make porcelain, the weight is wrong, then it definitely won't work. Expert hand identification, sometimes pick it up and try it, you don't need to look at it to know the authenticity. It's a matter of the amount of raw materials used.

Regarding this shrinkage, it is because the size of a piece of porcelain, the size of the embryo and the size of the finished product after firing, it is not the same, and it will produce shrinkage, and the finished product is one diǎn smaller than the embryo. If you want to imitate a piece of porcelain at a height of 20 centimeters, then the embryo has to be made more than 20 centimeters.

But how much is appropriate? This is a bit more complicated, porcelain clay, temperature, glaze, etc. have to be considered holistically in order to be accurate.

"This person came to the porcelain capital more than forty years ago." Lu Zhixing continued: "At that time, he was still a young man in his thirties, and of course, I was even younger. He found out about my master out of nowhere, and he came to the porcelain capital just to come to the door to apprentice. ”

"My master disagrees, but this person is very tenacious, and he says that it is difficult to hear diǎn'er. In the end, my master was entangled, so he took out a blue and white vase from the Republic of China, and said that you make one as it is, and I will take a look. ”

After making it, Lu Zhixing's master, Lu Huosheng, asked Lu Zhixing to weigh and measure the height first, and it turned out to be the same!

Lu Huosheng was really taken aback, and said, "Xiao Sui, who have you learned from before?" ”

Sui Donglin said, "I learned to make purple clay pots before. I don't have a master in making porcelain, so I read books and pondered by myself, plus I worked with the potters in the kiln factory. ”

Lu Huosheng heard it, "Then you make a purple clay pot and I'll take a look." ”

As a result, Sui Donglin brought raw materials and tools, and made a purple clay pot in front of Lu Huosheng.

When Lu Huosheng saw it, he was taken aback again, and said, "Xiao Sui, your purple sand skills have completely entered the first-class ranks, who is your master?" You crossed the door to apprentice, does your master agree? ”

As a result, Sui Donglin said, "I do purple sand, and I don't have a formal master." ”

Lu Huosheng shook his head again and again, "Xiao Sui, you don't even have the most basic integrity, please go back." ”

Sui Donglin was anxious, "I really don't have a formal master, but Mr. Gu Jingzhou has instructed me, but I am not a beginner disciple!" ”

Lu Huosheng heard it, "No wonder! Since Mr. Gu has instructed you, why don't you take you as an apprentice? ”

He didn't say that. I guess, maybe it's because I have a background in doing purple sand before, and he feels that there are all kinds of inconveniences in teaching halfway! Sui Donglin said.

Lu Huosheng smiled, "I'm afraid it's not the reason." Do you want to know what the reason is? ”

Sui Donglin looked at Lu Huosheng puzzled: "Please give me advice!" ”

"Because you're too famous! You learned Zisha and found Mr. Gu; I learned to make porcelain, and I came to me in every possible way. In this line of work, fame should only be a by-product, something that comes naturally. If it's just for the sake of fame, your heart will be heavy, and the future will be endless! "Lu Huosheng spoke earnestly.

The so-called authorities are fascinated, and the bystanders are clear, Sui Donglin seems to have suddenly realized.

In the end, Lu Huosheng did not accept him as an apprentice, but like Gu Jingzhou, Diǎn gave him some tips for making porcelain. Before Sui Donglin left the porcelain capital, Lu Huosheng told him that he should visit Mr. Gu Jingzhou again to see what else he had built.

Later, Sui Donglin sent a letter to Lu Huosheng, and he did go to visit Mr. Gu Jingzhou again, and Mr. Gu gave him a purple sand monk's hat pot, but he didn't directly say anything about it. And Sui Donglin also realized that this is using this pot to remind him: heavy cultivation, light fame and fortune!

Since then, Sui Donglin has not only concentrated on making purple sand, but also left no name, becoming a master figure hidden in the folk. And not only did they look down on their reputation, but they also looked down on their money, and most of their income was done for good deeds.

"No wonder!" Tang Yi said, "He asked Xiao Gu not to rush into the purple sand industry, and to sharpen it for another three years!" ”

Lu Zhixing's eyes suddenly became a little complicated, "This Xiao Gu you said, let him come and see me when you have time!" ”

"Mr. Lu, did you agree?" Tang Yi is happy.

"Who said I said yes? See you first. You are now the majority shareholder of the kiln factory, do I dare to refute your face? Lu Zhixing said expressionlessly.

Of course, this is a joke, Lu Zhixing was moved because of all kinds of coincidences, and after listening to Tang Yi's affirmation of Xiao Gu's quality, he was moved.

"Hahahaha." Tang Yi smiled, "Mr. Lu, I still haven't said one more thing, this matter is definitely what you are most interested in!" ”
