Chapter XXXI: Original Pottery

Old man Liu was very quiet, and when he saw that Chen Weizheng was fine at home during this time, he encouraged Grandma Liu and the second elder of the Chen family to go out for a trip. The weather is good in September, it is more suitable to go to most scenic spots, return before October 1, avoid Golden Week, and the travel price is economical. After his incorruptible tongue, the four of them decided to join the old people's group and go out for 20 days, and chose Pingnan Fengtian to fly and travel to the whole northeast. Take a look at the Sanjiang Plain, the famous Great Northern Wilderness, Changbai Mountain Tianchi and Fengtian Forbidden City, and Liaonan Beach. You can also go to Goryeo, go to Mt. Kumgang, Sangganryeong, Panmunjom, and see these legendary places. It is said that the national economy has improved greatly, and the people can eat in a big pot without farming, and they will hold rallies and parades every day, which is quite fun.

Chen Weizheng donated four card machines to conduct an hour-long training for four old people, and the four old people can basically master the use of card machines, and the best one is Grandma Chen, this kind of thing really has to be talented.

Four tourist cups, four pairs of toad glasses, four sets of tourist clothes and hats, four pairs of tourist leather shoes, four tourist walking sticks, four multi-functional backpack travel bags, plus four ultra-long standby mobile phones, according to the four old sayings, that is, the shotgun for the gun.

When it was time to set off, the old man was fully armed and the family went to see him off. Looking at the equipment on the four old men, the members of the same regiment all inquired where they bought it, and learned that it was prepared by the Sun Tzu Gang, and they all praised them for their good lives. Looking at their conspicuous appearance, Chen Xiaomei couldn't cry or laugh.

Chen Weizheng's courtyard has never been as quiet as it has been in the past few days since the fire entered the fire. Chen Weizheng decided to use this time to count the arms in the space and see what was going on.

Entering the space, looking at the whole layer of packing boxes, I began to regret whether it was really necessary for me to get so many arms back, and opened a packing box casually, which contained a standard pistol, a lot of English, translated as: Police Colt standard equipment caliber: 9mm; Overall length: 182mm; Weight: 735g; Capacity: 6 rounds; The gun was produced in 1969 and had a simple retro-style design. Fires powerful Magnum bullets. A pistol in a box with 100 rounds of ammunition and a holster. After getting this box, Chen Weizheng didn't want to open the second box anymore, and his mind was to find a place to test the gun.

Walk up to the screen and ask the screen, "Can I get a shooting range in space?" ”

Screen display: "Yes"

"How?"

"It's troublesome." For the first time, the screen indicates difficulty.

"You say, no matter how hard it is, I'm going to do it." There are so many guns and ammunition, if they can't be solved in space, there will be no shooting range outside for Chen Weizheng to shoot.

"You go find a primitive clay pot." The requirements for the screen do have a certain degree of difficulty.

What is the connection between the clay pot and the shooting range, Chen Weizheng can't think of it even if he wants to break his head.

What is a clay pot? With the help of Baidu Dashen, the conclusion is as follows: a clay pot is a basin-shaped vessel made of clay (clay). It is generally divided into two categories: pots for containers and potted pots.

Potted pots are mainly used in landscaping, landscaping, private gardens, community greening, and home furnishings to plant various plants.

Container basins are mainly used in the household to hold grain and loose items, and are also found to hold drinking water. With the spread of containers made of various new materials, it is now rare.

Chen Weizheng shouted: It is indeed rare! With stainless steel, aluminum alloy, no matter how bad it is, foreign porcelain is used, who still has a clay pot at home? There are also a lot of pottery pots, pickled cabbage, soaked in medicinal wine, but there is no clay pot. Chen Weizheng knows that pottery is the oldest utensil in the world, and it should not be difficult to make, and it is great to make it yourself.

Read on: Pottery pot making requires kilns, pottery makers, and related raw materials. Kilns now have gas kilns, electric kilns, track kilns, etc., and China traditionally uses dragon kilns to fire, gathering the aura of heaven and earth, giving pottery a unique spirit and charm, and highlighting the profound cultural heritage.

Chen Weizheng lamented: It's so difficult, how did those primitive people think of making pottery! Those ancients in Hemudu are estimated to have crossed a clan.

Continue to see: This kind of pot is produced in Yixing, so it is also called Yixing pot, and now there are many similar products in other provinces and cities. The appearance of this basin is beautiful and elegant, suitable for living room and living room furnishings, but unfortunately it is not very good to breathe and seep water, which is its fly in the ointment.

It's good to have a place of origin, and there is a place of origin to have a product, which is big and expensive.

Ask the screen: "There are many levels of pottery, and there are more impurities in it, what is the standard you need?" ”

The screen was silent for a while, and a circular board with a radius of 50 cm protruded from about 10 centimeters below the screen, and it should be appropriate to put a keyboard on top of it to match the screen. Screen display: As long as it can be placed on this table for three minutes without breaking, it is qualified.

That's easy to do, get a lot of them back, try them one by one, and there will always be one pass.

Call Chen Weigang and ask him where there is a flower and bird antique ceramics market in Qingshan.

Chen Weizheng knows that there will be tea sets in the flower and bird market, and there should be Yixing pottery. I really don't have any, let's find a few basins with water!

There is a very small ornamental market in Gyeongsan, and if you want to be good, you have to go to Guyi. Chen Weigang asked Chen Weizheng to go to the county seat at noon, and after lunch, he accompanied him to visit the ornamental market. Chen Weizheng readily agreed.

This is the second time I have come to Chen Weigang's home in the county seat.

It was the Blue Lotus who opened the door, and when he saw the Blue Lotus, Chen Weizheng was startled, "Wow, you are a Transformer!" ”

Blue Lotus punched over, and Chen Weizheng dodged away.

The blue lotus is pregnant, with a huge belly, and her face is shiny and freckled. The hair is short and the tip of the nose is large. It's very different from when I got married, and it's not an exaggeration to say that it's a Transformer.

"Wei Zheng seems to have grown taller?" Blue Lotus said, "Don't be kidding, sister-in-law, I'm twenty-four, and I'm still long!" Chen Weizheng said. In fact, he knew that he had not only grown taller this year, but also grown taller, his height had grown from 1.72 meters to 1.76 meters, and his weight had grown from a small man of 120 pounds to a big man of more than 150 pounds.

Chen Weigang was laughing on the side, I guess he thought so, but he didn't dare to say it, and someone finally helped him say it today.

A girl walked over and threw Chen Weizheng a pair of slippers, and at first glance, it was Ruan Lei.

"It's still Dr. Ruan who looks eye-catching." Chen Weizheng said from the bottom of his heart, and everyone in the room laughed.

"I don't think so." Ruan Lei said: "I think Sister Lotus is the best-looking." ”

"Then you're used to it." Chen Weigang said on the side: "What you see in the unit every day is this type, and when you see other normal ones, you feel that it is abnormal. ”

"Oh! It's not normal for me to be like this! "Blue Lotus is gone.

"Normal, normal, quite normal." Chen Weigang raised his hand in surrender.

"How long will it take to get back to normal?" Chen Weizheng asked. Everyone paused for a moment, and Ruan Lei was the first to react and replied, "There are still two months." ”

"Boy or girl?" Chen Weizheng asked again.

The three in the family, you look at me, I look at you, I think you dare to ask this kind of thing, it is a crime to identify the surname. Those present here are either leading comrades or professionals, and the worst of all are industry cadres. Unexpectedly, it was a farmer who asked the question.

"Boy." In the end, Chen Weigang admitted.

Who is not qualified to do an appraisal when pregnant this year, he is a cadre of the Health Bureau, and his friend is a doctor in the maternity and infant hospital, if he does not know the condition of the fetus, it is a lie.

"Even if it's my daughter, I'll want it too." Blue Lotus emphasizes the supplement.

"Get the dentist ready." Chen Weizheng said that everyone has not come to their senses, and having a child seems to have nothing to do with the dentist. Seeing that they didn't understand, Chen Weizheng continued: "The eighteenth master will laugh so hard that his teeth will burst when he arrives. ”

Everyone remembered the eighteenth master's mouth with only a few front teeth, and they all smiled. Chen Weigang came to say: "It's good to collapse, replace the full dentures." It appears that there is flesh on the face. ”

After eating, everyone went to the flower and bird market together.

Getting out of the car, Blue Lotus said: "I'm walking slowly, walk slowly with our husband, Lei Lei, you go with Wei Zheng." Holding Chen Weigang in one hand, holding a towel in the other, and wiping sweat without a handful, this pregnant woman's anger is great. The main thing is to give Chen Weizheng and Ruan Lei a chance to get in touch.

Ruan Lei asked, "What do you want to buy?" ”

"Pottery."

"Naughty?" Ruan Lei didn't understand.

"It's the pottery of ceramics, the utensils of utensils," Chen Weizheng explained.

"What do you want that thing for?" I really can't remember what that thing is for, Ruan Lei probably hasn't used pottery.

"Furnishings. It looks quaint. Chen Weizheng said.

walked into a shop selling Yixing pottery, looked at those delicate small tea sets, and asked the boss if there was a clay pot that could hold seven or eight catties of water, and the boss almost didn't blow them out.

There are flower pots that are sold, but unfortunately there is a water outlet under the flower pots, which cannot be used to hold things.

There are clay pots, bowls, and even bone jars. There are just no clay pots.

Ruan Lei thought for a while and said that in Huaqiao Town, there is a pottery factory that has been closed for several years, and the old factory is still there, so it should be possible to find some garbage from the past. didn't ask Chen Weizheng's consent, so he took out his mobile phone and made a call to Blue Lotus, and pulled Chen Weizheng to drive away.

Overseas Chinese town is not far, more than 20 kilometers away from Qingshan County, between Qingshan and Guyi, there was no village or town here, in the seventies of the last century, Vietnam excluded Chinese, a large number of overseas Chinese returned to China, and were concentrated here, and set up a self-reliant overseas Chinese farm, because it is located in the middle of Qingshan and Guyi, the first-class highway of Qingshan and Guyi passes through the town, the geographical advantage is obvious, and over time it has formed a small market town.

Ruan Lei was very familiar with this place, and commanded Chen Weizheng to go from Qingshan to Huaqiao Town, and then from Huaqiao Town to a dilapidated factory. Under the ruined walls, there are indeed many clay pots piled up indiscriminately.

An old lady sat by the door of the old factory, and Ruan Lei greeted her affectionately, in a strange language that Chen Weizheng could not understand. The old lady also said something to Ruan Lei affectionately. After a while, Ruan Lei said: "Grandma said, you can take whichever you like, these are things that no one wants"

I chose it for a long time, there were many broken ones, barely complete, only three, put them in the trunk of the car, thank you grandma, and left.

On the return car, Ruan Lei asked Chen Weizheng: "Where have you been in the past six months, I have been to Chen Village twice, and I have also gone to your house, but I have not seen you." ”

"When did you go?"

"One Qingming, one June six."

Qingming in space, June 6 in the United States. But I couldn't tell her this, so I had to smile and say, "I studied business with a classmate's father in Nancheng and was not at home." ”

"It's the boss of the League of Nations! I heard that you are unwilling to be the general manager of the Honghe Province of the League of Nations, so it is true that the League of Nations withdrew its investment in Honghe? "Women, they all have the potential to gossip.

"There's no such thing." Chen Weizheng denied and explained: "If this project does have potential, will the League of Nations Group give up because of my own reasons? General manager, just change one. ”

"That's true." Ruan Lei agreed.

After a while, Ruan Lei said again: "Your home is very good, like a small landlord's manor." ”

"Do you like it?" Chen Weizheng asked.

"I don't like it."

Chen Weizheng heard this kind of answer for the first time, and looked at her with wide eyes.
