Chapter Seventy-Seven: Seize the Opportunity
"That's a good idea, please that friend of yours, I hope he can really help me build these things."
Mu Ran did not hesitate to hand over all the drawings to Gu Tasu.
When it was over, she also asked: "By the way, Dr. Gu, I don't know if you know clearly, where do we have a good porcelain kiln here, I want to customize a few sets of tableware that I have figured out by myself, so I want to find a good porcelain kiln to help me fire it." You see, these are the graphics of a few sets of cutlery that I have in mind, how do you look at it, can you burn it out? ”
Mu Ran turned around and rummaged through a box to find a few sets of tableware graphics she had drawn a few days ago, handed them to Gu Liusu, and asked for his opinion.
As soon as Gu Tassel looked at these sets of tableware, he immediately liked it.
"Mrs. Mu, are these, these porcelains all you came up with? It's just not like it's for eating, it's like an ornament for decoration, it's so beautiful, it's so beautiful. ”
Mu Dyeing designed several sets of tableware, there are patterns are very simple, but they are extremely elegant, that is a set of maple leaf wind pattern, a set of wave rolling pattern, a set of lotus pattern after rain.
There are also intricate patterns of tableware, there are smart goldfish swimming at the bottom of the plate, there are lotus flowers blooming on the plate, and there are beautiful and delicate festive patterns of children celebrating the spring, which is really shocking.
Looking at it, he thought of something else.
"Mrs. Mu, I would like to ask, in addition to porcelain about these tableware, do you also design other porcelain? For example, vases, teapots, porcelain and so on. ”
"What's the use of asking this?" Mu Ran instinctively thought that this was the case, and Gu Tassel did not deny it, and nodded. "That's right, I'm really useful, it's used as a gift for my mother's birthday, my mother has no other hobbies, she likes all kinds of porcelain, so as a son, if I see special porcelain outside, I will always find a way to buy it back and give it to my mother."
He Gu Tassel is just the concubine of the Gu family, as a concubine in the family, his status is very low, and he has been living in the shadow of his mother-in-law, and his life is not easy.
Since he was able to make money, he also wanted to leave that house with his mother and sister.
But her mother is inseparable from her father, even if this father has always owed her, she is willing to stay by his side.
As for her sister, her mother considered her lifelong events and wanted to find her a good family affair with the Gu family's family, so she naturally didn't want her sister to follow him out.
Only he Gu Tassel, his mother knew that he was living too hard, so she supported him to get out of the Gu family and let him go outside to break into the sky, instead of being trapped in the Gu family and fighting with them day and night.
She wants him to be safe and take care of everything in the family, she doesn't want her son to fight and take it.
But the unwillingness in Gu Tassel's bones made him unable to let go and abandon the Gu family.
He felt that he was also a child of the Gu family, so why couldn't he Gu Tassel.
Why is it because of the difference between his concubines that he will live forever by his concubines.
Why, that straw bale brother, who has achieved nothing and can only walk the dog and tease the cat every day, can become the head of the family as soon as he is born, which is not fair.
So over the years, although he has traveled and wandered outside, he has never given up returning to the Gu family's house for a moment, and he has never given up the position of the head of the family.
In his opinion, he was much better than his big straw bale brother.
If his eldest brother becomes the next generation of Gu family members in the future, then the Gu family will definitely fall and be squeezed out of the six major families.
And he Gu Tassel is different, although he doesn't dare to guarantee that he can carry forward the Gu family, but to keep the Gu family's ancestral business, he Gu Tassel thinks that he can still guarantee it.
Therefore, once there is any opportunity for him to seize, he Gu Tassel will not give up.
And the amazing talent that Mu Dye is showing at the moment is exactly what he needs Gu Tassel, so he has to seize the opportunity.
At this moment, Gu Tassel looked at the drawings in his hand, and he knew that his opportunity had come.
The Gu family has always been famous for the porcelain of the Shanggong court, and it is also made from this, everyone in the Gu family knows all kinds of porcelain since childhood, even if it is a three-year-old child, he can name five or six kinds of porcelain when he opens his mouth.
However, with the passage of time, the Gu family has recently begun to decline, and the porcelain provided by the Gu family every year is extremely conservative, and it is similar in style and color.
On the contrary, the Xue family, the hostile force of the Gu family, has become more and more catching up with their Gu family in recent years.
They don't know where to dig up the porcelain, in recent years, they have specially designed various porcelain graphics for the Xue family, and won a good reputation for the Xue family in various porcelain exhibitions.
In this way, compared to Gujia porcelain, which has been conservative and has not made a breakthrough, more and more merchants have begun to waver, and many merchants have not set their orders this year, which shows that they have begun to favor the Xue family.
Therefore, if the Gu family does not have any particularly creative porcelain this year, maybe the palace will not want to purchase the Gu family's porcelain, so it will be a fatal blow to the Gu family.
Thinking of these, Gu Liusu had great expectations for whether Mu Dye could come up with creative porcelain.
As for Mu Dye, although he didn't know what Gu Tassel wanted to do with other porcelain graphics, but looking at his nervous appearance, it was obvious that this was very important to him, maybe a child was looking forward to it in order to win his mother's joy.
In this way, she is not easy to refuse anything, and in addition, she thinks that since Gu Tassel is for filial piety, it is better to use the theme of mother-son love to design a set of porcelain for him.
"Well, I don't have any paints or anything like that, I'm afraid that if you want to design the porcelain graphics you want, you'll need to use paints to color."
"Otherwise, it would be easy to be unclear in terms of color expression just by drawing with charcoal stick figures. So, when I go to town tomorrow to buy some paints, and then I'll give you a set of porcelain, what do you think? ”
She already has a picture in her head, but she doesn't want to draw it now, after all, a lot of things she thinks about have already made a few of them a little suspicious, so it's better to be a low-key person, or delay painting for a few days.
When Gu Tassel heard that Mu Dye said that he could paint, he suddenly became ecstatic and said: "Thank you, Mrs. Mu, Gu is very grateful to Mrs. Mu here, if my mother likes this gift, then Gu will definitely thank Mrs. again." ”
"If you just give this gift to your mother to show your filial piety, then thank you, there is no need, but if you use my blueprints to do business in the future, you can remember to give me dividends when you earn money."
"Of course, it also includes the house design drawings I gave you earlier, as long as you use them for business, then you have to count on my share."
It can be given as a gift, but if it is used for commercial purposes, she, the designer, will also have to make money.
When Gu Tassel heard Mu Ran say this, the guilt he felt before because he concealed Mu Ran suddenly alleviated a lot.
At this moment, I saw him respond with a smile: "That's natural, if you use Madame's creativity to make money, Gu someone will definitely give dividends to Madame at that time, and he will never break his word." ”
Gu Liusu thought that he would soon be able to get the porcelain design drawings he wanted, so at this moment he was holding the tableware drawings that Mu Dye asked him to give, and the whole person was very happy.
At night, he didn't even sleep, and went straight out to find his friend who liked to delve into all kinds of strange and strange things.
Nangong Chuli, who was passing by, looked at Gu Liusu holding a lot of paper, and when he went out with a happy face, he seemed to think of something, and rushed to Mu Ran in front of him with an arrow step.
"Dyeing, you're not interesting enough, since we're all friends, why don't you just help Gu Tassel's kid design things, and you don't want to design something for my buddy."
"You haven't even seen what drawings Gu Tassel is holding, and you haven't asked me what it is, so you dare to come to me indiscriminately to complain, isn't it too much for you to say that?"
Mu Ran glared at him angrily, and his eyes fell on the stove with lotus seeds and eight treasure soup simmering in front of him.
As soon as Nangong Chuli smelled the fragrance, he forgot about the previous incident and only cared about the food now.
"Dye, what are you simmering, it smells like lotus seed soup, but there is more fragrance that I haven't smelled, what kind of soup is this?"
"It's just an ordinary lotus seed eight-treasure soup, but I added some homemade seasonings to make it taste better, and you'll know when you taste it."
"Really? If you say that, it won't taste bad, hurry up, get me a bowl and taste it, I'm almost finished digesting it now, and I'm trying to eat something to fill my stomach. Your lotus seed eight-treasure soup is just right, just ready to eat. Nangong Chuli stared at the casserole on the stove with a pair of peach blossom eyes, and he was anxious, and he wanted to reach out and open the lid of the casserole to take a look, but he was slapped on the palm of his hand by Mu Ranran.
Smack-
"What are you anxious about, Nangong Chuli, and no one is robbing you, this casserole is big, how can this pot of lotus seed eight treasure soup be boiled out enough for one person and one bowl, your share is indispensable, don't worry." Hurry up and wash your hands, and by the way, let the three children clean up too, don't just run over and eat without washing your hands, remember? ”
"Oh, that's okay, I'll take the three children to clear their hands, you remember to scoop out the lotus seed eight-treasure soup and cool it, so as not to be too hot for the three children to eat."
It was rare for Nangong Chuli to be so careful, and Mu Ran smiled at the moment.
"Got it, I'll scoop it out for you to cool off, you go wash your hands."
