Section 364 A Blank Paper Leaves Nanling (1)

In the summer of the first year of Yanhe, Zhang Yue took Zhao Rouniang back to the manor in Changshui Township, Nanling, and temporarily stayed away from the disturbances of Chang'an.

Today's Chang'an City is about to become a powder keg.

With the servant Gongsun Jingsheng was imprisoned, and was officially announced by the ruling Jinwu: curse the monarch's father with witch Gu privately, and be rebellious!

When Prime Minister Sun He heard this, he immediately wrote a letter to apologize, and at the same time asked for his resignation.

The Son of Heaven issued an edict to comfort him, saying: Prime Minister Zuo has ruled the world for ten years, and now the servant is rebellious, but how can the prime minister be innocent?

It looks like it's warm.

But in fact, everyone knows that it is a sharpening knife.

The Gongsun family's feudal state, Geyi County, is said to have been blockaded by cavalry.

Inside and outside Chang'an, all relatives of the Gongsun family have been monitored and restricted from entering.

Since the first emperor, the Gongsun family, which has been entrenched in the Han court, has been in the twilight of the western mountains and may pounce at any time.

Zhang Yue left at this juncture, in fact, he also wanted to stay out of the matter.

As soon as the Gongsun family fell, a prime minister, a servant and dozens of key positions of two thousand stones and thousands of stones were vacated.

I don't know how many people will salivate with a hara.

It's okay for the prime minister.

Not many people will die and want to grab a position.

But this is too servant, but it is the top fat difference and beauty difference!

As soon as the Gongsun family fell, the positions and interests they occupied were all vacant.

Whoever grabs it, gets rich!

What's even better is that because Gongsun He's father and son have made the Taifu Yamen into a mess.

Therefore, as long as you grab the position of the servant, even if it is a pig, you can make political achievements in an instant.

The reason is simple.

Ma Zheng, the servant, is already rotten and can't be rotten anymore.

The one who took over didn't even need to make any changes, just because he killed the parasites that were parasitic on the Han family's servant Yamen at once.

They can also be reborn and make many achievements.

Therefore, up and down the government and the opposition, countless smart people are gearing up and doing all kinds of PY transactions behind their backs.

Zhang Yue didn't want to get involved in this troubled water, so after playing 'Please Fu Tizi Hou Guoshu' with Fan Mingyou, he hurriedly took Zhao Rouniang away.

Let a group of ministers who are carrying large bags and small bags, with all kinds of beautiful jewelry, and want to trade with him, pounce.

But in his heart, Zhang Yue knew that the position of this servant would fall into whose hands - in addition to his good brother, who else would be Shangguan Ji, who else was in the service?

You must know that Shangguan Ji was originally born in Ma Zheng - before Xinggui, he was a stable official who raised horses for the Son of Heaven.

It just corresponds to the work of the servant.

Qualifications are enough!

He served as a servant for four or five years, and his acquaintances and connections were enough to push him to the position of a servant.

Don't look at history, Shangguan Ji and Huo Guangshi were incompatible later.

But now, the two of them are good friends!

The relationship is very iron!

At the same time, in the past two months, Shangguan Ji has taken the opportunity of winning the favor of the king alone, but he has swiped a wave of goodwill in front of the Son of Heaven.

It can be said that the right time, place and people have both.

As long as there are no accidents, the position of the servant will definitely fall into his hands.

Zhang Yue has no opinion on this.

Although Shangguan Ji is a sycophant, his professional ability is also good!

In history, after the witch curse, he served as a servant and contributed to the re-establishment of the Han cavalry troops!

Then Huo Guang unloaded the mill and killed the donkey......

Therefore, it is most suitable for Shangguan Ji to serve as a servant.

As soon as he went home and asked his sister-in-law to say goodbye, Zhang Yue came to the manor, in front of the big stove that had been cooking some time ago.

By this time, the fire had been extinguished for two days.

The bamboo tubes in the cauldron were also boiled, and the bamboo fibers were no longer tight.

Zhang Yue asked people to find a few large wooden barrels, and then poured out the bamboo tubes in the cauldron, because before Zhang Yue left, he had already instructed Tian He and others to add firewood ash, lime and other substances to the cauldron after three days of steaming, so when these bamboo tubes were poured out, they immediately emitted an unpleasant smell.

So much so that the workers of the manor need to cover their noses with strips of cloth in order to pour out these stinky bamboo tubes one by one and put them in clean water to clean.

When the cleaning was completed, Zhang Yue ordered someone to find a few large wooden barrels and pour all the bamboo tubes into it.

Then people use stone hammers and iron hammers to hammer and pound in wooden barrels until all the bamboo tubes are pounded into a slurry similar to dough.

This job takes time.

Therefore, Zhang Yue ignored it after he was instructed to go down, and took Tian He and others to the foot of a mountain in the manor.

Here, according to Zhang Yue's instructions and drawings, three simple Longmen kilns have been built.

This kind of gantry kiln has simple technology.

All you need to do is dig a rectangular cave like a cellar in the middle of the mountain, and then fill the kiln with firewood or coal.

Zhang Yue inspected it and was very satisfied.

Technically speaking, these three Longmen kilns are about the same as the Longmen kilns in the middle of the Eastern Han Dynasty.

The length has reached more than 17 meters, the width is about two meters, Zhang Yue looked at the cave and was very satisfied, the height of the cave is almost two meters, enough for people to walk through it.

Its inclination is also okay, because it is built on the mountain, so its inclination is similar to that of the mountain, about 245 degrees.

Now, everything is ready, only the east wind is owed.

This east wind is the recipe for porcelain!

In fact, primitive porcelain appeared as early as the Shang and Zhou dynasties.

However, due to kiln temperature and materials, as well as firing technology, the development has not been delayed.

The main problem is that there is too much alkaline soil in the porcelain clay raw materials of the Shang and Zhou dynasties, so once the temperature in the kiln exceeds 1,100 degrees, it will melt.

Porcelain, on the other hand, requires a kiln temperature of at least 1,200 degrees Celsius to form.

Fortunately, Zhang Yue traced countless historical materials.

Therefore, although he did not participate in the production and manufacture of porcelain, he did not understand porcelain technology, and there was little content about porcelain firing in the historical materials and materials traced back.

But......

The names and titles of porcelain recorded in the history books let him know how to mix the raw materials.

During the Song and Ming dynasties, porcelain was also called magnetic.

This shows that china clay should be similar to magnetic clay.

In some news reports, the content about Jingdezhen told him that the porcelain clay contained a lot of kaolin.

These two pieces of information let Zhang Yue know what to do.

The rest of the matter is nothing more than to find the magnetic soil and kaolin, and then constantly experiment with their ratios.

It's nothing more than taking your time.

Zhang Yue has time!

After inspecting the cave, Zhang Yue instructed Li Miao and others to find magnetic soil and kaolin according to his instructions, mix them in proportion after transporting them back, and then send them to the kiln for firing.

Anyway, it always works!

After watching the dragon kiln, Zhang Yue returned to the papermaking site.

At this time, the bamboo tubes in the wooden barrels have been smashed and turned into pastry-like objects similar to dough.

At this point, only the last two most critical steps remain!
