Chapter 256: Porcelain
But this almost means that the transformation of the Su family's business has failed, which not only symbolizes that most of the investment in the past half a year has been lost, but also that it will fall into a bottomless darkness again in the future, and it is likely that it will no longer be able to find a new way forward.
Su Wanmiao didn't agree for the time being, but just said to take a look first, and maybe she also had some expectations for what Du Bai said at the beginning.
It's just that the speed of production in this kiln factory is to work one day and rest one day, and many rumors about the kiln factory may soon be closed began to spread, which made people's hearts disheartened, coupled with the reduction of wages, many people left in a short period of time, and only some loyal old people are still persisting in the kiln factory.
But no one knows when such a day will be the end.
Until one day, Du Bai suddenly proposed that he wanted to take over this kiln factory and wanted to make some attempts.
Su Wanmiao naturally agreed, in her opinion, anyway, things have come to this point, so it doesn't hurt to hand it over to him. No matter how bad it is, it can't get any worse.
Also today, Du Bai came to the door of the kiln factory again, and it was still the Lu steward who came to greet him, and he was also the old man who had stayed here for the longest time, but now he looked even more sad, and his hair was much whiter, obviously worried about the kiln here.
"Uncle......"
Steward Lu bowed slightly and saluted, after all, now that I look at this uncle, who thought he was just an idler, is now his top boss.
"It's been a hard time." Du Bai patted him lightly on the shoulder, his eyes swept around, and he saw that this place was indeed much more deserted, even more serious than the previous haunted for a while, at a glance, he could see that many houses were empty, as if the floors and things had been removed.
It is said that it is a kiln factory, but in fact there are very few porcelain, which can already show that this kiln factory has no future.
His gaze finally fell on the door of the storeroom that he had instructed not to be approached, and walked slowly over. Although Steward Lu wondered what this uncle was going to do, he still followed, just as he wanted to inspect it.
In his heart, it was basically the same as what the outside world thought: this kiln factory was almost dead, and now it was just because of Su Wanmiao's hesitation and he was hanging for a breath, maybe tomorrow, or maybe the day after tomorrow, and it could completely fall at any time. At this time, it is useless to come no matter who comes. My uncle is a torch, and I can only praise it with a shy face, and I can only praise it for burning well.
So, whatever he does, he just needs to serve well.
Of course, Du Bai didn't know what the other party thought, he just returned to the door of the house, dusted off the dust and cobwebs on it with his fingers, and slowly tore off the seal that seemed to be slightly pitted after being bitten by insects, feeling a little satisfied, it seems that these people did not disobey their orders.
"The top priority of the kiln factory is to urgently need a batch of fine porcelain to obtain profits, and it is also to start the signboard of Sujia porcelain here."
Du Bai said so softly, while reaching out and pressing on the dusty door for a long time, with a slight force, with a "squeak", the door slowly opened.
"As long as we have this signboard, which symbolizes high quality and sophistication, I believe that we will soon be able to slowly break the current predicament and ......revitalize this kiln factory."
Steward Lu, who was following him, was a little confused, and looked at his back a little strangely.
He naturally knew that what this uncle said was indeed right, and if he really did that, he did have hope for life.
However, the most critical and fatal point is that there is no porcelain that Sujia Kiln Factory can get hold of! Unless you really spend a lot of money to ask for the help of those porcelain masters, but where will the money come from to pay the dilapidated kilns today? Without the help of porcelain masters, there would naturally be no high-quality porcelain to sell, and there would be no money......
It's an endless loop. Unless the uncle gets a large sum of silver from the young lady by virtue of his identity......
However, the investment in the early stage has already been lost, and now it is completely impossible to expect the young lady to invest money in this bottomless pit. No matter how big my uncle's face is, it is impossible for this silver to be thrown out like running water like hundreds or thousands of taels at every turn......
He felt that maybe his uncle was too simple and naïve, and he couldn't help but want to remind: "Uncle, but we can't make very delicate porcelain at the moment......"
"You don't need to worry." He suddenly heard his uncle in front of him chuckle, and then turned slightly sideways to show him the scene in the room, "I have been prepared for this for a long time!" ”
"What?" Before Steward Lu could figure out what his uncle meant, the next moment he was shocked by what he saw in front of him, and he almost wondered if his eyes were wrong!
Chinaware!
It's all porcelain!
And it's all fine porcelain!
He stiffened his mouth wide open, and stared dumbfounded at the room full of porcelain, both on the shelves and on the floor, piled up so full that he could not count them at a glance, but there were thousands to say the least!
"This ...... This...... These! ”
He carefully picked up the seemingly random porcelain on the ground and looked at it in his hand, just by looking at it, he could see that its delicate material was extraordinary, whether it was the heat or the clay, it was just right!
The color pattern on it is even more exquisite, even though it seems to have been stained with dust for a long time, but it can still be seen that every stroke on it seems to symbolize the superb skill of the maker.
To be precise, this is not at all what a small kiln factory like theirs can make!
He stammered in surprise, looked up at his uncle in front of him, and saw that the other party was facing away, leaned over and took a few bowl-shaped porcelains in his hand and looked at them twice, and said casually: "How about these porcelain?" ”
"Good! Very good! ”
Steward Lu immediately patted his chest and replied.
Although these porcelains are not as good as the official kilns that I treasured at that time, they are also first-class good things.
Not to mention that this stuff now fills an entire room!
"Then you will arrange for these porcelains to be sold, and we will preliminarily launch the signboard of our Su family porcelain." Du Bai put the porcelain aside, turned around and walked out, and said in a deep voice while concentrating slightly, "But you need to be careful not to sell them all at once." Batch by batch, little by little, while stocks last daily. While arousing the appetite of those guests, we should also leave an impression on them, our Sujia porcelain is not the ordinary porcelain of those bad streets, it is a real boutique! ”
"Yes." Steward Lu carefully wrote down his instructions one by one, and was even more surprised that his uncle, who was supposed to be a scholar, would know so much about these business matters......
