Chapter 158: Successful Firing
Su Chen came to the kiln, this time in order to do a good job in the secrecy of the new secret recipe of Qingbai porcelain, only recruited a few loyal and reliable craftsmen, these people have been with the Bai family for ten or twenty years, and it is also because of the help of the Bai family to become a family, after giving birth to children, the family is also the tenant of the Bai family, long-term workers.
In addition to owning many shops, restaurants, and workshops, a giant family like the Bai family also purchased a lot of land outside the city, which was a combination of big businessmen and large landlords, and there were many private tribes and tenants.
There are hundreds of servants, menzi, short-term workers, long-term workers, courtyard servants, stewards, and sect leaders employed by Guangbai Mansion. Similarly, this is different from the Bai family's workshop, and it is not difficult to find a few loyal and reliable people to come out.
Steward Zheng, Master Cui, and Master Tian of the white kiln listened quietly to Su Chen's explanation, including the skills of mud matching, molding, glaze matching, and burning, and how they differed from celadon and white porcelain.
These people have been immersed in the firing of porcelain for nearly 20 years, and they are experienced and experienced.
Bai Susu, Peng Jingqing, and Bai Shouzhi stood behind and listened, looking at Su Chen's shirt as a scholar, and talking endlessly about the details of porcelain burning and precautions, but they all had an alternative feeling.
Shi Nong Industry and Commerce, scholars should look down on this kind of craftsman skills and businessmen for profit, but Su Chen is constantly subverting their worldly impression of normal scholars.
Su Chen made a final speech summary: "Okay, the process skills and steps of Qingbai porcelain are these, you can prepare porcelain clay, start firing to find the feeling, theory and practice." ”
These people were a little impatient, and after hearing the words at this time, they immediately started to enter the preparatory steps of firing blue and white porcelain.
"Good work." Bai Suying stepped forward and said softly to Su Chen.
"For you, I don't feel hard at all!" Su Chen subconsciously said a word, and then said seriously: "I have already said the secret recipe, don't forget the deposit of five thousand yuan, go back and help me send it to Su Zhai!" ”
Bai Susu listened to the first half of the sentence, and was originally a little moved, but was suddenly broken up by the second half of Su Chen's sentence.
However, Su Chen didn't have such an awareness, he didn't have to talk about his feelings, but he couldn't leave the deposit unmentioned, it was five thousand yuan, a huge amount of money!
Regardless of ancient or modern, if a man does not have a certain amount of money and property, how can he be worthy of a relationship? Even if it is discussed, how can there be a good ending?
Peng Jingqing stepped forward and snorted: "You, talking and talking, why did you start talking about money so cheesy again!" ”
"I'm just a layman!" Su Chen shrugged indifferently, in front of this pair of girlfriends, he didn't pretend to be tall, nor did he pretend to be talented, he was a partner, a good friend, there was no need to disguise himself.
Bai Susu smiled faintly and said: "That's fine, this is very Su Chen, frank and sincere!" ”
Peng Jingqing pursed her lips, but she didn't refute it, such a Su Chen really made her feel that they could get along with each other naturally, which had something to do with his character.
Su Chen sighed in his heart, being cultured is different, Peng Nuxia directly said cheesy, look at Miss Bai, the words are elegant, and "vulgar" has become frank and sincere.
"Yes, the third uncle is optimistic about you!" Bai Shouzhi stepped forward with a smile, he had a good impression of this young man, he used to think that he was messing around here, but he couldn't imagine that he would really fire a new porcelain, it was too shocking, and he reached out and patted Su Chen's shoulder.
Su Chen suddenly bared his teeth, feeling more powerful than Peng Jingqing's hand, his whole shoulder collapsed, and he couldn't care about the other party's self-proclaimed third uncle, and said with a bitter face: "Thank you third uncle for your appreciation!" ”
"It's not appreciation, it's your kid who has real skills." Bai Shou Zhiren is tall and tall, at least one meter eighty-five or more, his big hand is on Su Chen's shoulder, and he wants to pat it a few more times, but Su Chen took the opportunity to dodge, took three steps back, and saluted with both hands: "When the third uncle praises him like this, Su Chen thank you!" ”
Bai Shouzhi laughed and said: "Haha, how humble and polite you kid is, it's very good!" ”
Peng Jingqing and Bai Susu glanced at each other, both of them saw through Su Chen's careful thoughts, and couldn't help but show a hint of teasing smile.
Su Chen didn't dangle in front of Bai Shouzhi at the moment, but participated in the firing of Qingbai porcelain, because the ventilation and dust removal at the kiln mouth were not good, so it was hot and choking inside, Su Chen asked the second daughter and the third uncle to wait outside.
Cui Craftsman and Tian Craftsman are all veterans of porcelain burning, with rich experience and skillful techniques, coupled with Su Chen's guidance, an hour and a half later, the first furnace was successfully fired, regardless of glaze or porcelain, modeling, it is better than Su Chen's porcelain vase, and it already has the level of selling goods.
However, it is still in the level of ordinary porcelain, and has not yet reached the delicate degree of fine white porcelain, so it needs several craftsmen to further study and work the details of firing.
This night passed, three furnaces were fired successively, and Su Chen was sleepy after the third furnace was glazed, and went up to the attic to make up for sleep and rest, and the calcination behind did not continue to participate.
When he woke up, it was already noon, and the sunlight was shining through the oiled paper on the window lattice, which was very bright.
After Su Chen made up for sleep, he felt much more comfortable, sat up, and found a beautiful figure sitting at the table outside the screen, through the silk embroidery of the screen, he vaguely saw that it was Bai Susu's shadow.
Now that Su Chen is familiar with Bai Susu and Peng Jingqing, he can basically use the general body outline, walking voice, and body fragrance...... You'll be able to tell who it is.
"Susu, what are you looking at?" Su Chen bypassed the screen, walked out of the bedroom, and greeted Bai Susu in the outer xuan.
After Bai Susu heard the sound, he turned around and smiled, as if he was happy.
But the smile in her eyes this time, the appearance of Alluring City, and the innocent smile are extremely lethal, at least, Su Chen has never seen Bai Susu's smile before.
The eyes are smiling and charming, and the six palaces have no color!
Su Chen's mind came to mind Bai Juyi's famous sentence describing Yang Guifei in "Song of Long Hatred".
"Brother Chen, you sit!" Bai Susu smiled like a flower, and her voice was extremely gentle.
"Who is Brother Chen?" Su Chen's brain was a little short-circuited, and he subconsciously felt that he might still be in a dream.
He reached out and slapped his face, and it snapped twice, crisp and real, convinced that he was not dreaming.
Bai Susu looked at his stunned expression, but still couldn't help but smile and said, "Brother Chen, are you sleeping in a daze......
I'm confused by you! Su Chen muttered in his heart, and then glanced at the table with a lot of blue and white glazed porcelain on display, and asked, "These are newly refined blue and white porcelain?" ”
Bai Susu smiled and said: "Yes, after a few furnaces of firing, the craftsmen and the craftsmen have finally improved the level of craftsmanship, infinitely close to fine porcelain, and with this unique glaze like jade, they can finally resolve the crisis of the Bai family, Brother Chen, thank you." ”
