Chapter 169: Harvest
Xu Jing's efficiency was still very fast, and in less than a month, he invited a generation of craftsmen from Jingdezhen who made a living by firing porcelain.
Most of those technical things are hereditary, and the master-apprentice inheritance system will be somewhat retained, and after a long time, some key skills will be lost.
So, it is the ordinary hereditary talent that makes a memory carry forward.
Of course, nothing is absolute.
In all dynasties, there is a difference between the official kiln and the private kiln, the porcelain of the official kiln is exquisite, exclusively for the royal use, and the value is several times higher than that of the private kiln.
Naturally, the craftsmen of the official kiln should not leave casually, and the only place where people can be found is the private kiln.
However, it does not necessarily mean that no one can burn good porcelain in the private kiln.
In fact, if I can't find such a person, Xie Zhi will have to ask Emperor Hongzhi for help to assign one.
The most important thing in the firing of porcelain is the ratio of materials and the outline of the edge.
As long as there are capable people who can be responsible for these, the rest of the specific process of firing will be done by labor in the cloud.
"The things ordered by the county have been done in the next, and the Sun family is famous in Jingdezhen, and the ancestors don't know when they are porcelain craftsmen, and they have skills that are not passed down."
It doesn't matter how famous it is, what Xie Zhi needs is real talent and real learning.
Xie Zhi glanced at this young man who was not good-looking, and said with a smile: "Sun Jiang has worked hard all the way, now he lives in Yazhong, and tomorrow he will go to the land where there is clay to take a look, if this soil can really produce porcelain, he will start working immediately." ”
Sun Jiacai didn't answer, and asked: "As long as you can agree to the villain's thing, the rest is easy to say." ”
If you want to answer something, that is also what Xu Jing promised, where do you know.
Xie Zhi looked up and turned to Xu Jing.
Xu Jing was a little unconfident, and said: "Zhixian, I promised Sun Jiang thirty taels of silver per month..."
Thirty taels? This is higher than his three-rank general's salary!
Xie Zhi was a little surprised, and the Sun family immediately got up and said, "If you don't agree, forget it, the villain will come for nothing." ”
This temper is quite big.
Xie Zhi shouted and said, "Wait..."
Before he could speak, the Sun family turned his head and said, "Do you still want to detain the villain?" ”
Did he say that?
Xie Zhi didn't care about Sun Jiacai's rhetorical question, smiled, and said: "If the porcelain you produce can satisfy the county, thirty taels will be thirty taels, and the county will respond..."
If you can really produce high-quality porcelain, the profit you earn is far more than 30 taels.
Xie Zhicai promised, and Xu Jing said again: "Zhixian, I also promised Sun Jiang in the next place..."
Xu Jing has been in business for so long, so he doesn't know how to bargain?
How can this be said by others, it is what it is.
In front of Sun Jiacai, Xie Zhi tried his best not to care about it, and asked, "What else is going on?" ”
Xu Jing said slowly: "If Craftsman Sun stays in the clouds, he still has to take his wife and children over to the high hall, and the county has prepared a place for his wife and children to settle down, and he will be fed every day..."
It is easy to say a lot about feeding him alone, as long as it is not for his whole family.
As for bringing his wife and children to the high hall, this is also what Xie Zhi is happy to see.
In this way, it can be regarded as allowing the Sun family to settle down in the clouds, and there are no special circumstances, and they will never leave the clouds suddenly.
Xie Zhi nodded, and said happily: "This is no problem, Sun Jiang will first see if the clay can produce porcelain, if it can, the county will send someone to pick up people, if not, the county will bear Sun Jiang's travel expenses." ”
When Xu Jing went to find Sun Jiacai, he brought clay.
For a craftsman who is familiar with this aspect, it is only a matter of glance that it can be done.
Xie Zhi let the Sun family take a look at it again, just to be sure.
After sending He Liang and the Sun family to confirm that the clay there could really be fired into fine porcelain, they sent some of the displaced people to start construction.
Start construction as soon as possible, and only then can there be white flowers and silver to enter the door as soon as possible.
With the start of the pottery workshop, it can be regarded as finally finding something to do for the homeless.
......
After the pottery workshop started, Xie Zhi set up an oil mill again.
This year's harvest is good, Xie Zhi thinks about squeezing those peanuts into oil before selling.
The reprocessing and sale of products is often several grades higher than their own raw materials.
After Xie Zhi's order, under He Liang's single-handedness, the oil mill rose in half a month.
Not to mention, this oil mill really has a decent appearance.
In just a few days, the first barrel of oil was squeezed.
Although the technology of oil extraction has existed for a long time, it is still those dignitaries who can really afford to eat, and it is good for ordinary people to be able to fill their stomachs.
Looking at this golden oil, Xie Zhi felt that he was already hungry.
"Tell me to go down, slaughter a sheep, and celebrate it, by the way, since I came to Yunzhong, the king of Yunzhong has been of great help to me, and I haven't thanked them yet, so take this opportunity to call him too."
After instructing He Liang, Xie Zhi called the cook sent by Zhu Chengpaladium.
At the beginning, Xie Zhi thought that when the county government was on the right track, he would return Zhu Chengpalladium's people, but he didn't expect that he was getting more and more accustomed to that cooking skill, and he didn't change people.
Of course, Xie Zhi also saw that Zhu Chengpalladium was not a person with any ambitions, so he left the cook he sent.
Since the matter of the Ma family was resolved, Zhu Chengpalladium has always taken the initiative to contact Xie Zhi.
Even after the news that Zhu Houzhao was in the clouds spread, he didn't come to visit Zhu Houzhao.
After seeing Xie Zhi saluting, the cook asked, "What are the instructions for the county to find the villain?" ”
Xie Zhi pointed to the peanut oil on the table and said, "How?" ”
The cook shook the clay pot, sniffed it again, and said, "Very pure." ”
This cook has been working in the county king's mansion all year round, and he has always used this type of oil, since he said it was good, it should be no worse.
"Have you ever eaten this fried millet with this?"
In later generations, Xie Zhi had heard that northerners would cook millet and fry it as a staple food, which was also a necessary product for weddings and funerals in the north.
Xie Zhi bought it online, but I feel that its taste should not be as delicious as freshly made.
After all, he hadn't eaten the crispy skin he had introduced.
The cook didn't think deeply about it, and replied: "What the magistrate said is oil cake, right?" ”
In later generations, it seems to be called this way.
Xie Zhi nodded desperately and replied, "Yes, it should be, will you do it?" ”
The cook responded lightly and said, "Yes." ”
Xie Zhi was excited, and said: "Then do this, the county has ordered the sheep to be slaughtered, and what else to do, you can consider it yourself." ”
The cooking skills of the chef sent by Zhu Chengpalladium are really superb, and the table of meals has completely achieved the desired effect.
Wang Shouren and the others are completely accustomed to Zhu Houzhao's identity, even if Zhu Houzhao is there, they are not awkward.
It was Zhu Chengpalladium who had been cautious and didn't dare to make too many moves.
Although he also retains royal blood, he is completely inferior to a prince like Zhu Houzhao.
Zhu Houzhao didn't pay attention to Zhu Chengpalladium's discomfort, he ate it quite deliciously.
After eating, Zhu Chengpalladium didn't stay long, and hurriedly said goodbye.
"Xie Wu, the balm in this palace has been configured, and Gu Dayong has been sent to Jingshi, and this palace will go to Yunzhongwei in the afternoon."
Zhu Houzhao was able to stay in the county government for so long to configure the balm, completely because he was driven by silver.
Otherwise, how could he give up Yun Zhongwei's training and do those boring things.
However, as long as Zhu Houzhao doesn't do anything out of line, he will do whatever he likes.
Xie Zhi waved his hand and said, "Your Highness can decide for yourself." ”
For the sake of it, he only received 10,000 taels of silver from that guy, and it was still necessary to remind him, and said: "Your Highness's daughter's body, in Yunzhongwei also be careful, now that His Highness's identity has been exposed, you have to pay attention to the image." ”
Zhu Houzhao's guy was like a sparrow who was about to escape from the cage, how could he have the patience to listen, waved his hand and said: "This palace knows, this palace is gone..."
Zhu Houzhao was about to leave on the front foot, and Xie Zhi had to order Zhang Yong in the back.
"Your Highness's affairs will be more concerned with Father-in-law Zhang."
There is no need to thank Zhizhi for orders, Zhang Yong has to pay attention.
It's good to hug Zhu Houzhao's thighs tightly, but if Zhu Houzhao makes a mistake now, he will definitely be the first to be unlucky.
Zhang Yong nodded and replied, "Yes, we understand." ”
