Du Zhi very much hopes that Mo Xian can also become a smart person, this kid is too stubborn, opening his mouth and closing his mouth is how Bai Gong is, he refuses to be accommodating at all, he is obviously a one-eyed child, but he doesn't understand the philosophy of life with one eye open and one eye closed, he is a stubborn cow, no wonder he will be gouged out by Mu Zhongtu with one eye.

It's not to contradict Bai Dong, it's just that Du Zhi is more pragmatic, in his opinion, everything should have a gradual and perfect process, Brother Bai is the leader, and naturally he has to put forward stricter requirements, but you are an executor, you should understand the truth that it is not enough, it is just a porcelain kiln, I don't know what it is for, as for being so harsh? The bricks used in the kiln are the finest hollow green bricks, and the bricks used to bond the bricks are also the white clay and glutinous rice juice produced locally in Lantian, which is glutinous rice, a pound will be sold for hundreds of good things, in Lao Qin, even the king does not dare to eat it every day, and it is an elixir to warm the stomach and get wet in the pharmacy, so why are you so bad?

Mo said that Du Zhi was the best at living, and even Qin Yue looked at it and shook his head; The relationship between the dog leftover and the ink line is the best, and when he sees Mu Zhuobei, he wants to call his sister-in-law, but now he doesn't bother to pay attention to him when he sees the ink line with a serious face, this is all the Bai family's money!

Mo Xian sat at a stone table and drank tea leisurely, and from his angle, he saw a hillside with just the right slope. It is faintly visible that four or five rectangular pools have been built on the slope, and they are arranged in a stepped pattern along the mountain. Near the foot of the hill is a three-acre masonry building. From a distance, it looks like a huge, oval-shaped egg. There is a courtyard in front of you, and when you walk through it, you will find a kiln room that is directly connected to the kiln entrance, and there is a place for people to rest in the room, and there is also a wooden warehouse for stacking firewood on rainy days, so you can walk directly into the kiln entrance.

Looking at the stick-shaped cylinder standing high above the porcelain kiln, the ink line felt a little excited, this was the highest airway he had ever seen; Ever since the public loser invented this thing, everyone in the world has used it. But even the princes' dining room only has a nine-foot airway, but the airway above the porcelain kiln is two zhang high, or the public loser under the guidance of Bai Dong, with a cloud ladder modified into a kind of 'work frame', can be built, I don't know how much energy and money was spent. But it was such a difficult thing to achieve, but it was forcibly dismantled twice by his order, not to mention Du Zhi, now even the people of the public loser are jumping to their feet in a hurry, and a few direct children even pointed at his nose and asked if he was taking the opportunity to take revenge for being expelled by the public loser! In the face of this skepticism. The ink line just smiled and said nothing, you scolded yours. I'll tear mine down.

"Ink line, this girl has already checked, this time the porcelain kiln is strong, and hitting the brick joint with a copper chisel only leaves a white mark, it should be able to pass the test, right?"

Out of nowhere, the flea jumped in front of the ink line and said to him with a grin.

It has to be said that Qin Yue people have a set, and after this medical ancestor was slightly guided by Bai Dong, he soon became a psychological expert in this era; In order to treat fleas, he has supplemented with medicinal stones, created a healthy environment and atmosphere, talked with her many times, and encouraged her to participate in labor and learn fleas Nowadays, it is rare to boast of 'my peerless face', Baijiazhuang's strong family affection, all kinds of novel food, rich and diversified life and learning, as well as the simple and lovely hum, and the grass that happily tells her stories every day have become the force to change her.

The flea who has gradually returned to normal psychology is now one of the most active characters in Baijiazhuang, and people who have come into contact with her will praise this beautiful woman for her cuteness, true temperament, strong martial arts, and more bold than men when drinking

Some people say that crazy people are the happiest, and this is farting! The happiest person is the one who is healed. Fleas now have inexhaustible strength all over their bodies, when the Bai family trading company established the Ranger Guard, no one wanted to trouble her, it was she who took the initiative to jump out of the gang to defeat several ranger leaders in a row, and successfully played the Bai family's 'big stick';

"Let's try the burn!"

As soon as the ink line was ordered, the craftsmen of the Bai family and the people of the public loser were about to frown and move the wood again. In addition to the rangers of the Bai family trading company who came to Lantian this time, there were also ten sons of the public and twenty craftsmen of the Bai family; The former will only be responsible for making some tools that will be needed in the future, while the latter is a kiln technician that Bai Dong is going to train vigorously. However, these children of the Bai family still don't know what the 'porcelain kiln' is going to be used for, only the ink line is fully aware, so they are even more grateful to Bai Dong for his kindness.

Porcelain burning is a technical work, even Bai Dong only knows a rough idea, even with his guidance, the ink line and these Bai craftsmen want to grow up, I am afraid that they will have to experience countless failures, so this kind of technique is the easiest to monopolize secrecy, and it is also the least easy to monopolize secrecy, because it relies on people, it is a craft, and it cannot be protected by law.

Bai Dong asked for secrecy from the beginning of the kiln, in fact, it was just to be one step ahead of the world, in addition to the public losers, there are also organizations such as the Mo family that are famous for their skilled craftsmen, and there are masters like Guiguzi, once the secret of the porcelain kiln is leaked too early, it is likely that someone with a heart will take the lead.

He is just a lawyer from later generations, not a master of Jingdezhen, he can only lead this world from the strategic and tactical level, but at the battle level, he can only let his 'soldiers' be one step faster;

Even in Jingdezhen in later generations, pine wood was still used to make the best porcelain, and some people tried to burn porcelain with coal, but what was burned was garbage; Therefore, Bai Dong specially explained that the best pine firewood must be used when testing the kiln.

This time, the Bai family brought countless grains, except for some temporarily lent to the Lantian military, most of which was used to help the victims; Those who lack labor in the families of the victims can receive it free of charge, and those who have labor in the family are not given in vain, but at present they are exchanging pine firewood for grain, and ten catties of firewood are one catty of grain. Lantian domain is connected to Qinling, as long as you have the strength, it is not a problem to beat firewood, and the firewood here is not valuable, I heard that the Bai family is willing to exchange one pound of grain for ten catties of pine firewood, Lantian people are moved to cry, I have long heard of Bai Zuogen's name, the Bai family is here, we are fatal, good people

Now in the courtyard in front of the kiln, in the wooden warehouse of the kiln house, there are mountains of pine firewood everywhere, which were originally worthless things, but in the eyes of Du Zhi and Gou Yuzi, this is a pile of grain; Hearing that the ink line was going to be burned again, the two looked at each other and were a little nervous. God knows if he can pass this madman's inspection this time, God willing, it's all money!

According to the method given by Bai Dong, the ink line instructed everyone to pile the firewood into the kiln, and when the firewood was sufficient, he ordered the kiln to be sealed, because it was not really porcelain, and only one fire port was left to look at the fire, and there was no need to leave even the mouth for adding firewood. In autumn, the firewood is dry and pine-oiled, and a torch is thrown into it, and a flame rises in the kiln in a short time, and the boiling heat wave rushes out of the fire, and the first person can sweat on the spot; The flea loves beauty the most, frowning and quickly flashing away, but the ink line is not retreating, staring at the flame in the kiln, while stretching out his palm, feeling the temperature of the flame.

"In order to burn porcelain that is better than Chudi crystal pottery, in addition to having a good kiln, there must also be dolomite and kaolin from Lantian, but these are not the key, the key is that the 'fire watcher' must be able to accurately perceive the heat in the kiln. There is no master who can teach this ability, you have to rely on your own countless explorations and perceptions, you can see more fire, sweat a lot, and naturally have experience. You're bound to fail, maybe a hundred, a thousand, and succeed the next time! Mo line, I have no other requirements for you, you are a person who is praised by Mr. Gongyi as 'born with a keen perception and a delicate heart', I want you to become the best fire watcher! Think about it, there will be countless wonderful porcelain from your hands in the future, such as Dr. Qing, princes and monarchs of various countries, and even Zhou Tianzi, they will be overjoyed and even glorious because of the porcelain you fired! You must work hard, but don't let me down! ”

Thinking back to Bai Dong's words, Mo Xian unconsciously straightened his chest, his eyes became more determined, he took a bowl of salt water from his wife's hand and drank it, and took a step closer to the fire. Sweating like rain, his eyes didn't even blink, and the scorching waves of fire hit his body, but he was like a spring breeze.

After more than an hour, the fire in the kiln gradually went out, and the whole body of the ink line was wet with sweat, but he refused to take a break, and began to touch all the way along the kiln wall, from the hot hand at the beginning, to the warm later, he was familiar with every wall brick, just like he was familiar with his wife's body.

Suddenly stopped, Moline looked at the wall in front of him with great annoyance. There are a few bricks with slight cracks, because a few brick joints are not evenly smeared, slightly wider than the brick joints elsewhere by half a minute, and the glutinous white soil filled in the brick joints is not smooth enough, with slight bulges or depressions.

"It's not up to standard, and it's been demolished and rebuilt as a whole!"

The ink line surface sinks like water.

"Are you crazy? This is already the third time! ”

If the ink line is crazy, he doesn't know if he is crazy, Du Zhi is really going crazy, he wants to rush over and strangle this guy.

"Brother Mo, it's just that there are some small problems with one wall, isn't it okay to rebuild this piece, is it necessary to demolish and rebuild it as a whole? Can you discuss" Gou Yuzi's eyes were also on fire, and he was more distressed than Du Zhi.

"There's nothing to discuss, I said, it's going to be demolished and rebuilt as a whole! You can fly to the letter to pass the book to Bai Gong, if Bai Gong says that it doesn't have to be like this, I have nothing to say. ”

"You, you're a stubborn cow!" (To be continued......)
