In fact, not to mention Zheng Yingcai, even the people on Lijiazhuang's side were shocked by their own works.

As early as the evening three days ago, when Nangong Zhu handed over the sample to Li Hao, he discussed the matter of the entries with him.

The scale of this competition is unprecedented, and all the potters are riveting their strength, racking their brains to make the best works.

A single round of porcelain can't open the distance with the public at all, so Nangong Zhu suggested making a big thing out, which has more visual impact.

But Li Hao didn't agree, just asked him to make two palm-sized wine glasses.

Nangong Zhu didn't understand what Li Hao was planning at first, but now the reaction on the scene has proved that his choice is right.

Wrapped in deafening cheers, Li Hao smiled happily in his heart.

The Zheng family's craftsmanship is indeed clever, and the porcelain made is also lifelike and exquisite. But it's a pity that Zheng Yingcai chose the direction from the beginning.

The imperial court held a porcelain competition, and the ultimate goal was to select the best company and replace the cups and dishes in the palace. Therefore, no matter how good the porcelain is, the final judges will only score the cups and bowls.

The unicorn broken box is quite ornamental, and the unicorn full of power and beauty is also very beautiful. But because the unicorn is so good, it has attracted all the attention, and the real entry, the porcelain bowl painted with the map of mountains and rivers, is a little overshadowed.

The Zheng family's move is undoubtedly putting the cart before the horse, and it does not end up in a meaningful way.

On the contrary, Li Hao's approach is very smart, he will play a foil role in the phoenix made of transparent glass, the phoenix is not painted and dyed, so that even if the production is exquisite, everyone's eyes will be on the two charming cups for the first time.

Li Hao once read a sentence, how to draw the purest white? That is to blacken the paper, leaving a little bit of white. The whiteness in the darkness is more pure.

The phoenix cry is a perfect interpretation of this sentence.

Secondly, the unicorn broken box and the Jiangshan Sheji bowl are both ceramic casting, which are integrated, even if they are beautiful, everyone can't pay attention to the bowl for the first time.

And Li Hao took a trick, combining glass and ceramics with contrasting colors and visions, and supporting the ceramic cup with the purity of the phoenix.

These two cups are the same as Nangong Zhu's trial work for Li Hao, which is a perfect combination of ceramic and glass.

Therefore, in the difference between ceramics and glass, there is an indescribable harmonious texture.

It happens to fit the mystery of Tai Chi, there is yin in yang, and yang in yin.

The whole piece is flawless and full of shock.

Li Hao was very proud, turned his head in the direction of the Zheng family, bowed his fists, and said silently: "Concession"

The meaning of ridicule is self-evident, compared to Zheng Yingcai's provocative gaze just now, it is simply a naked slap in the face.

Zheng Yingcai was born noble, he is the dragon and phoenix among people, how could he have suffered such humiliation, he couldn't help but stand up, and the calm hypocrisy on his face was gone. If it weren't for the attendants around him to stop him in time, I'm afraid he would have to run to the stage and fight with Li Hao.

Li Hao ignored it and turned around and returned to his rest area. smiled in his heart: "I finally saw your true face!" ”

As expected, neither the judges nor the audience accidentally handed over the highest score to Li Jiazhuang and to the Nangong brothers and sisters.

In this battle, Li Hao won a complete victory.

won perfectly, but Li Hao was not carried away by the victory, at the final award ceremony, Li Hao pulled the Nangong brothers and sisters to the stage together, and said the cooperation between the Nangong family and Li Jiazhuang in front of everyone.

And said that Li Jiazhuang only provided materials and venues, and this pottery work was made by the Nangong brothers and sisters

At this moment, the Nangong family of pottery, which had been silent for decades, became famous again, and the scenery was unparalleled for a while, as if it had overshadowed the Zheng family.

Wrapped in cheers, the Nangong brothers and sisters burst into tears with excitement, the highest honor pursued by countless ancestors in the family for a hundred years was finally completed by their brothers and sisters.

At this moment, in addition to excitement in their hearts, they are only full of gratitude. They thanked Li Hao for his generosity and his support, if there was no Li Hao's assistance, how could they defeat clans like the Zheng family with the strength of the brothers and sisters.

They have made up their minds that from now on, they will fight for Li Jiazhuang and Li Hao for the rest of their lives. Use the skills in their hands to help Li Jiazhuang become famous all over the world.

Some people are happy and some are worried, the Nangong brothers and sisters were praised, and Zheng Yingcai fell into great anger.

The dignified Zheng family, the pottery giant of the honorary Tang Dynasty, was actually given to the fledgling Li Jiazhuang, which is simply a great shame.

Zheng Yingcai could already guess how hot the family's anger would be.

"Young Master, what should we do now?" Zheng Yingcai's henchman scholar asked with fear written on his face.

I have to say that Zheng Yingcai's city government is much deeper than Cui Qinghe and Wang Qingyuan, even if he is in anger, he has not completely lost his mind, he gritted his teeth and forcibly suppressed his anger.

"There's nothing to do with us here, stabilize the house first and then follow up!"

"Yes!"

Under the leadership of Zheng Yingcai, the Zheng family left the competition venue and returned to their mansion.

That night, Li Shimin also saw the magical work of Phoenix Crying, and for a while, the dragon's heart was happy, and the Nangong brothers and sisters were specially awarded to enter the palace to face the saint.

Looking back at the past few pottery competitions, no one has ever enjoyed such treatment, and the reputation of the Nangong brothers and sisters has become even louder.

But in fact, Li Shimin has the world in mind, how can he be so extravagant because of two beautiful cups? He just saw some doorways from this work and wanted to communicate with Li Hao.

The imperial banquet was luxurious, and the ministers of civil and military affairs flattered the Nangong brothers and sisters, and at this moment they had become the focus, but no one noticed that Li Shimin and Li Hao had disappeared from the banquet at some point.

In the Imperial Garden.

The two of them lay on rocking chairs, drinking and enjoying the scenery, and there was no noise of a banquet here, but they were extra comfortable.

"Lao Li, you are in such a hurry to call me out, not just to drink a bar? If you have anything to ask, just say, do you still see me like this? ”

Li Shimin smiled: "At first, I heard Lao Cheng say that you were going to participate in the pottery competition, and I thought you had found some new way to make money. But when you see the phoenix crying, you find that your purpose is not like this. Tell me what exactly you want to do. ”

As Li Shimin said, although the phoenix is gorgeous and beautiful, the finishing touch is still the pottery cup, and the phoenix cast by glass has become a foil. This is contrary to Li Hao's idea of using glass to open up new trade routes.

And think about it again, if Li Hao is just to make money, then there are many ways, why bother to do so many things, and finally become the background board of the Nangong brothers and sisters?

"I haven't seen you for a few days, Lao Li, you're a lot smarter! As you said, I didn't want to make money with glass at all. Again, although this thing is good-looking, no matter how beautiful and fresh it is, isn't it still an ordinary wine glass and an ordinary dish? ”

"Besides, the process of glass making is not perfect nowadays, and it is quite cumbersome to make, and it is difficult to mass produce. It's so hard to make money with it! ”

"And what are you bothering to figure out?"

Li Hao put his hands behind his head: "If I say that I can use it for the army, do you believe it?" ”
