Chapter 146: Self-reliance

ps: It's the middle of the month, everyone is starting to exert their strength, the top five can't be saved, and the top six are in jeopardy. Everyone is pitiful and pitiful, begging for monthly ticket support, please, please!!!!!

As we all know, even if many trace elements are added to the glaze, they are certainly not visible to the naked eye, and only when a chemical reaction occurs at high temperature will it transform into a variety of colors.

But now, in this vat of glaze slurry, there is a bright red substance, which makes Zhu Shen and others think about it.

"Is this a new glaze?" Zhu Shen inquired: "Can you tell us, and let us have a long experience?" ”

"Can't ......" Qi Xiang shook his head directly: "Keep it secret!" ”

Zhu Shen was speechless for a moment, and he couldn't ask again.

Qi Xiang smiled and said, "Next, the glazing steps will require your help." ”

"It's easy." Zhu Shen turned around and beckoned, "You guys, let's get started." ”

"Zhu Shao......" A young man came over and asked, "I don't know what method you want to use to glaze your friend?" ”

"Huh?" Zhu Shen was stunned, and then looked at Qi Xiang: "What about you, how do you want to glaze?" ”

Qi Xiang groaned and hesitated: "This is thin porcelain, it should be more stable by spraying glaze, right?" ”

Ceramic glazing is also a technique. Generally speaking, there are mainly seven methods such as dipping glaze, swinging glaze, pouring glaze, brushing glaze, sprinkling glaze, wheel glaze, etc., according to the different shapes and thicknesses of the body, the corresponding technology is adopted.

Qi Xiang's spraying glaze refers to the use of a spray gun or sprayer to atomize the glaze slurry to the surface of the body, which is more suitable for thin tire objects, so that more glaze can be sprayed to achieve a satisfactory effect.

"Then spray the glaze."

Zhu Shen also agreed with Qi Xiang's proposal, and immediately ordered: "Have you heard it, prepare for it...... Spray glaze! ”

"Okay!"

Whatever the boss says is what it is, and a group of employees naturally have no opinion. In an instant, a man got busy, took a spray and glazed it, and then put it on a thin plain porcelain vessel. Spray carefully.

The glaze is like a mist, and when sprayed gently, it is like a veil shroud.

Several employees are also considered veterans, and the glaze is covered with utensils. It's just a thin layer, no more, no less, just right, very even. It looks like an extra point is really thicker. If you subtract one point, you will be thinner.

After Qi Xiang looked at it carefully, he was naturally very satisfied.

"Don't worry." Zhu Shen said in a low voice: "These few of them were all dug by me from the big kiln factory with a high salary, and they are skilled and will not make mistakes." ”

"Hmm." Qi Xiang smiled: "Anyway, the technology is better than ours, so that's fine." ”

"It's better than you, not counting me." Zhu Shen raised his head arrogantly: "My craftsmanship is not inferior to any of them." ”

"Huh!" Qi Xiang smiled and did not comment.

"You don't believe it......" Zhu Shen snorted, directly picked up a sprayer and said, "Then let you open your eyes." ”

Between words. Zhu Shen filled the sprayer with glaze slurry, then picked up a plain porcelain plate and pressed it again and sprayed it. In an instant, a puff of glazed mist was like smoke, directly covering the surface of the cage.

As soon as the glaze mist seeped, there was immediately a layer of mist on the surface of the plate, and then slowly penetrated and adhered to form a very thin and uniform colloidal object. This shows that the glazing is successful, and it also proves that Zhu Shen's technology is really not bad......

Zhu Shen squinted, and his eyes showed a little smugness. Seems to be saying. See, that's what I'm capable of.

"What are you doing?"

Suddenly, someone asked next to him, and his voice was a bit stern.

"Ahh Feng Gong! ”

A young man looked back and hurriedly said, "We're glazing." ”

"What glaze?"

Feng Gong strode over, looked at the jar, was stunned, and frowned: "What mess did you add to the glaze?" ”

"This ......," the young man was stunned. A little panicked: "Feng Gong, it's not us ......"

"It's not you, it's me?" Feng Gong was a little displeased, and directly reached out into the glaze, used his fingers to color a little red liquid, rubbed it first, and then approached the end of his nose to sniff lightly.

"Cinnabar?"

Feng Gong thought for a while, and then became angry, and became even more indignant: "What's the matter with you, was your head kicked by a donkey, and you actually mixed cinnabar water into the glaze, it's ridiculous." ”

"That's cinnabar?" Zhu Shen was stunned, and exclaimed: "Qi Xiang, what are you doing, actually mixing cinnabar?" ”

"What happened to Cinnabar?" Qi Xiang said calmly: "Cinnabar is also a kind of mineral, can't it be used as a glaze?" ”

"Uh......" Zhu Shen hesitated, "However, no one has ever done this." ”

"How do you know that no one has ever done that?" Qi Xiang smiled: "Besides, it's because no one has done it that there is value in research and experimentation." ”

"Really?" Zhu Shen expressed doubts, but his belief was a little shaken, and he seemed to be convinced.

"You guys, don't stop yet."

At the same time, I heard Feng Gong angrily scolded: "Such a good porcelain fetus, you can't bear to spoil it?" If you hear it, stop me, and no one is allowed to move. ”

"Master Feng ......"

Several employees were stunned for a moment, looked at Feng Gong, and then at Zhu Shen and Qi Xiang, and felt very embarrassed.

Seeing this, Qi Xiang immediately frowned, and couldn't help but glance at Zhu Shen, and pouted to let him solve the problem.

"Feng Gong!"

Zhu Shen scratched his head and said, "This is my friend's ......."

"Zhu Shao!"

Feng Gong turned his head suddenly, with a bit of a hawkish look at the wolf, hating iron and not steel, and not being angry: "Since you have been fishing for three days and drying nets for two days, you can forget about being lazy and slack." But if you look at you now, you have forgotten even the most basic qualities of a potter, which makes me sad and disappointed. ”

"Feng Gong, I don't." Zhu Shen hurriedly defended.

"And said no." Feng Gong glared and said, "Then tell me, what's going on?" Plain porcelain is not made by himself, but bought by others. And these glazes, messy, inexplicable, what kind of system? ”

"I've always warned you that pottery burning is a very serious matter, and you must not have fun."

Feng Gong said solemnly: "I don't require you to be strict, but at least you should have a serious attitude." ”

"I have." Zhu Shen felt quite aggrieved.

"You have? How I can't see. Feng Gong sneered and sighed: "Zhu Shao, when you looked at the thatched house, I think you are indeed sincere. I really wanted to learn pottery, so I agreed to be your advisor. ”

"But depending on the situation, you shouldn't need me."

Feng Gong's eyes were full of disappointment, and then he turned around neatly and said, "Zhu Shao." Good bye. I'll mail my resignation letter to your ......"

Zhu Shen was stunned, reacted instantly, and hurriedly chased out: "Feng Gong, Feng Gong." There's something to discuss, don't go, let's talk about it again......"

The sudden change also made Qi Xiang and the others stunned and at a loss.

After a long bang, a young man came back to his senses, threw down the spray gun casually, and ran out quickly. Other people also woke up from a dream and understood that this may be related to their future jobs, so how could they have the heart to spray glaze. They chased after them.

"Hey, hey, hey......"

Qi Xiang stretched out his hand and couldn't stop it, only a group of people left.

"Rub, is this a pit on me?"

Qi Xiang was speechless for a moment, and looking around at the messy scene, he was also a little angry. What are you doing, thousands of pieces of porcelain, only a third of the glaze has been sprayed, and the rest has not moved. Let him do it himself?

"Come by yourself, come by yourself......"

Qi Xiang was angry, reached out and picked up a spray gun, and wanted to spray glaze mist on a plain porcelain plate, but hesitated. In the end, it still didn't spray.

"Spray, but also pay attention to skills, this is not easy to get."

Qi Xiang looked left and right, and suddenly his eyes lit up, and he immediately put down the spray gun and picked up a brush on the shelf next to him.

"Spray glaze doesn't work. You can apply glaze. ”

Qi Xiang liked the shape, picked up the brush and dipped it in the glaze, and then carefully brushed it on the plain porcelain surface. This is called glazing, also known as brushing glaze.

Generally speaking, the power of brushing glaze is relatively slow, so it is only suitable for coloring glaze, such as filling color, bucket color and other processes. However, for novices like Qi Xiang, brushing the glaze is undoubtedly relatively simple, as long as the strength is well controlled, there is generally no problem.

For a period of time, Qi Xiang has been playing with the brush, so he can't be more familiar with the performance of the brush. Brush up the glaze, very relaxed and comfortable, a few clicks, a plain porcelain finished.

One, two, three......

Qi Xiang was concentrated, completely forgetful, and his efficiency was getting higher and higher, just as he was getting better, he couldn't help but hear someone shouting: "What are you doing!" ”

Qi Xiang's pen trembled, and he almost didn't crush the thin plain tire on his hand. He calmed down, looked back, and saw a group of people standing behind him, it was Zhu Shen and Feng Gong, as well as four or five employees.

Looking at their appearance, it seems that they have reconciled?

Qi Xiang speculated in his heart, but his face was not good-looking, and he pouted: "You are all gone, and no one is left, what can I do, of course it is self-reliance." ”

"Ahem!"

When Zhu Shen and the others heard this, their expressions were more or less embarrassed.

"You guys, what are you doing?"

Zhu Shen reacted the fastest, and immediately shouted in turn: "Don't hurry up and go to work." ”

"Yes yes yes ......"

Several employees looked at each other and smiled bitterly, so they had to silently carry the black pot, pick up the spray gun to work, and continue to work. And I don't know why, they work harder and are more passionate.

At the right time, Zhu Shen turned his head and said, "Qi Xiang, Feng Gong has promised to help you take care of the fire, you don't need to hire another person, you come and thank him." ”

"Oh?" Qi Xiang frowned: "Really? ”

"Of course it's true." Zhu Shen smiled: "Actually, Feng Gong is also a warm-hearted person, but it's just ...... Merely...... I'm worried that I'm going astray and that's why I'm so angry. Once I explained it, it was fine. ”

"Really?"

Regardless of whether this is true or not, anyway, when Zhu Shen said this, Qi Xiang also had to give face, and said politely: "Then thank Feng Gong for helping." ”

Feng Gong didn't pay attention to him at all, only took two steps forward, and scolded lightly: "A few of you, you haven't eaten today, your hands are soft, you don't have any strength at all, and the mist glaze is not ......applied evenly at all."

Seeing this situation, Zhu Shen looked at Qi Xiang very embarrassed, and said in a low voice: "People who have the ability are always a little bad-tempered, you have to bear with me!" (To be continued.) )
