Chapter 407: Surprises (Part I)

As the sun set, Zhu Daolin left the temporary shooting range with two guards who were addicted to guns, and soon came to the horse farm across the mountain to meet with the stables and veterinarians who had increased to 120 people.

Accompanied by two chief and deputy directors and the head of the veterinarian, Zhu Daolin witnessed the wonderful mating of a majestic Andalusian steed with spotted fur and a maroon Indian mare.

During the viewing, Zhu Daolin quietly approached Shi Jinyuan, the fifty-six-year-old short and thin chief, and asked him what he thought of the booklet on artificial insemination to speed up the reproduction of animals in Tianshu Pavilion.

Shi Jinyuan, who had spent twenty-five years in the imperial horse prison in the capital and thirteen years in the Fengyang Imperial Village, replied disdainfully:

"Actually, this thing is not new, Beizhili Miyun Racecourse did it thirty years ago, but it was later reported, and was sentenced to three thousand miles by the Miyun County Government for disturbing the Gangchang, obscene and violent crimes, and the two veterinarians and their families died in the middle of the road before they went to Yunnan, and no one dared to do this again."

"At that time, there was a lot of trouble, and even Lord Wanli, who had never been in the court, was alarmed, and immediately issued a strict order and no further discussions, so it was slowly forgotten."

"Our family was framed by colleagues and sent to Fengyang Huangzhuang to raise cattle and pigs for those years, and when I was idle, I quietly took breeding pigs, cattle and local goats to try to get it for two years, and the cattle were made a few times, and the pigs also figured it out, but the goats couldn't get it, and it was not safe to use urine bubbles and casings to transmit sperm, which was probably caused by the so-called bacterial infection mentioned in the booklet."

"Go back and wait for the Longtan Glass Factory to make the large glass tube on the booklet, and our family will definitely open the general's eyes."

Zhu Daolin was shocked and lamented after hearing this, and even forgot to watch the horses mate, and finally hurried to the dog farm at the foot of the mountain to the west to see the fifty German shepherds and Caucasian dogs that Sayid had bought from Damascus.

After discussing with Shi Jinyuan and the two honest veterinarians for a while, Zhu Daolin asked Shi Jinyuan to pick two docile from a dozen short-haired shepherd dogs tomorrow. Sent to the house to be accompanied by Ye Liangchen and Uncle Gu's two little male dogs, he took Mulan's mother and son, who were so excited that they were reluctant to leave, to return home, and warmly entertained Sa Yide, who was about to return to Quanzhou, and his uncle Wu Jingxian, who was invited by the guards into the city.

Wu Jingxian actually arrived an hour ago, and when he entered the door, he soaked in with his old friend Ye Liangchen, who had just come back, and chatted non-stop, Zhu Daolin arrived home and the two hadn't talked enough, waiting for Zhu Daolin to wash up and change clothes. Immediately took a group of wives and concubines to greet his old man.

Wu Jingxian happily called Ye Liangchen and walked to the restaurant in the middle courtyard together, praising Zhu Daolin for leading the army north to do a good job as he walked, which was completely a model of loyalty and patriotism, and the emperor was so happy that he specially issued a special order to praise him as a recommended person.

Zhu Daolin and a group of wives and concubines surrounded Wu Jingxian and came to the restaurant to sit down, Zhao Xunting and Sayide's master and servant also arrived from the Nanshan experimental porcelain kiln, Xiaoying, Xu Fu and others immediately retreated after saluting the guests.

The servants then served a specially prepared beef hot pot, and then placed exquisite imperial enamel porcelain tableware, and poured wine for the guests with exquisite multicolored flange porcelain pots. It made Sa'id and Hassan's eyes glow green, and they couldn't stop swallowing.

After three rounds of drinking, Zhu Daolin stood up, raised his wine glass to toast Zhao Xunting, who had worked hard, and asked casually: "How are the preparations for the relocation of the porcelain kiln?" ”

"The day before yesterday, the fire was turned off and the kiln was stopped, and three days later, 1,200 craftsmen were collectively relocated. Bring your baggage and move in. ”

"The houses of the porcelain kiln field and the six experimental porcelain kilns were all changed in accordance with the general's orders, and they were given to the parents and villagers in Nanshan Village free of charge three days later."

Zhao Xunting's answer was very detailed. clinked glasses with Zhu Daolin lightly and drank them all, and then let out a rather enjoyable panting.

Zhu Daolin turned to Sa Yide, who was still playing with the enamel color wine glass, and asked with a smile: "Mr. Sa, is there any gain from the afternoon visit?" ”

Sayid put down the small porcelain cup and smiled apologetically: "The harvest is huge!" I've been wondering, in addition to being specially customized for a few of the wealthiest tribal chiefs. The porcelain fired by the Nanshan porcelain kiln can completely replace the ordinary porcelain of the Tianshu Pavilion......"

"The only downside is that there seems to be a lack of colors and styles, but I know that the large-scale Longtan porcelain factory will soon be able to produce more porcelain colors, and Hassan and I have no doubt about this."

"That's good, so I'm relieved."

Zhu Daolin happily toasted the master and servant of Sayide.

Wu Jingxian already knew everything about Zhu Daolin's secret firing of porcelain. All the skilled craftsmen were forcibly relocated from Jingdezhen by him, just as Zhu Daolin complimented him, the first credit belonged to him, so Wu Jingxian was quite proud, and when Zhu Daolin put down the wine glass, he asked with concern: "What name do you plan to give to the porcelain that is about to be produced?" ”

Zhu Daolin, who had already had a belly case, replied truthfully: "It's called Longtan porcelain, and the bottom of each export porcelain will be marked with three words: four-clawed cloud dragon and Longtan porcelain." ”

"Good! Courageous! Ye Liangchen praised loudly.

Wu Jingxian nodded with satisfaction: "The word Longtan is indeed courageous, the four-clawed cloud dragon is consistent with your title, and the porcelain factory is your personal industry, it is not a violation, it is completely okay!" ”

"Can it be produced in two months?"

Zhao Xunting saw Zhu Daolin looking at him, and hurriedly put down his chopsticks and replied: "In the first month, we should warm the kiln and sacrifice to the gods, and prepare the blank according to the strict standard process......

"With the help of three small steam engines, we can save most of the preparation time, but the obsolescence of the blank will take at least 20 days, and it is estimated that it will take the second month to try production, and slowly find out the quality of each porcelain kiln and the heat required!"

"Most of the first three batches of fired porcelain have to be broken regardless of whether they are good or bad, and they are sent to the cement factory to be ground into special cement, and the fourth batch is the real output, which is estimated to take about 70 days."

Everyone was very surprised, and it was difficult to understand why the first three batches of porcelain had to be broken regardless of whether they were good or bad, even if they were sacrificed to heaven and earth, the god of fire, and the god of kiln, they would not need to break the three batches!

Zhu Daolin explained: "This is what I requested, the first three batches are not all broken, there will always be a few best pieces left as a memorial, and the rest must be broken after careful inspection and summary, after all, the quality of porcelain is not very stable in the early stage of the new kiln mouth put into use." ”

"There is also a reason that after the porcelain crushing is the best cement raw material, the cement fired again according to the ratio is very useful, for this reason I specially instructed Longtan Cement Factory No. 2 to build a small cement kiln, in the future, all unqualified porcelain in the porcelain factory will be broken and sent over to make special cement, which can not only deal with the continuous occurrence of waste materials will not occupy space, but also waste utilization, which can be described as the best of both worlds."
