"It's the hall, and everything you see here can be negotiated upstairs for big prices."

Xiaoqiu introduced the model of the grocery store to Lu Chengyang, who came to Jincheng for the first time.

The bored Lu Changfeng followed closely behind Brother Ah to add.

"I was bored when I first came here the other day, and there are probably hundreds of them."

Lu Chengyang glanced at Changfeng and did not speak, but continued to follow Xiaoqiu to the grocery store.

The entire grocery store is lined up, three on the left and three on the right, three on the second floor, and two reception rooms on the third floor in addition to the colorful glazed roof.

"It's the twenty-ninth of the new year, and there are no merchants staying in the grocery store. They will carefully consider the value for money of each item, and then choose whether to wholesale and how much. And we also have a large number of merchants attached to the grocery store, these people are generally the merchants in the west of Yongzhou, they used to rely on their feet to go to business, a year to earn a sum of money, or loss or earn, a life and death, if there is an accident on the road, a lifetime can not turn over. Such examples abound in Yongzhou. But Tianshui and Hanzhong are relatively better, they have easier roads to walk, and there are relatively more opportunities. Therefore, different people are treated differently in grocery stores, and relatively speaking, the guilds in western Yongzhou will be more stable and down-to-earth, because they regard goods as their lives. The wool thread and glass in our grocery store are now mostly merchants in the western part of Yongzhou, and Mrs. said that these two things can play their due role when they are handed over. ”

Following Xiaoqiu's introduction, the three of them went up to the second floor.

"You can't see it here now, it's the shopkeeper who is responsible for the reception and negotiation of prices on weekdays, one person at a time."

"This is the colorful glazed roof on the third floor, the sun is just right today, and the two sons can rest here. There are all kinds of colored glass in this room, colorless, solid color, and multicolored, as well as various thicknesses and strengths, so you can get your hands on it. ”

Lu Chengyang put his hand on the solid colored glass, "Is this the glass that Sister sent someone to install in my study?" ”

He turned around and asked Xiaoqiu on the side.

Xiaoqiu smiled, "Yes, Madame said that you almost grow in the study every day, and your eyes are going to be broken, so the first batch of glass was baked and sent to you." It's the most transparent kind. ”

"Out of the oven? Is this fired? ”

Xiaoqiu smiled, "The two sons have time, let's go to the glass workshop." ”

Lu Changfeng turned his head at Brother Lu Chengyang, "Last time I said I wanted to go to the glass workshop, Sister didn't let me, but now that you're here, Sister will allow me to follow you to take a look, hey, who made me small, I just don't be trusted by Sister A." ”

Lu Chengyang didn't seem to hear it, and said to Xiaoqiu, "Then let's go to the glass workshop." ”

Xiaoqiu smiled and took the lead downstairs, footsteps sounded on the wooden stairs, and Lu Chengyang glanced at Changfeng beside him, "Are you not trusted by Sister A just because you are young?" ”

Lu Changfeng covered his chest, "Brother don't be too sharp with me, I'm your own brother, you love me more, don't treat me as one of your classmates." ”

Lu Changfeng, as the youngest in the family, is the most clingy, sometimes he goes to his school with his brother, and sees his brother's classmates in the tongue battle group, and he hits the nail on the head, and the people who are scared almost vomit blood, but he is very leadership in their college, and other students see Brother more and more respectful, almost more prestigious than the gentleman in their college, which makes Lu Changfeng wonder if Brother A's classmates have a tendency to be abused.

"Look at the road."

Lu Chengyang faintly came.

Lu Changfeng knew that Brother had let him go, so he hurriedly followed Xiaoqiu out honestly.

The legendary glaze workshop is actually close to the back door of Huofu, which is unexpected.

"It was originally in Huohou's back house, but later the scale expanded and there were more people, so for convenience, the young master bought this house side by side. Now from the front, there is only Huo House, but the street behind is basically inhabited by Huo Fu craftsmen. ”

When I came to the glaze workshop, the shotgun here has been replaced, and it has long been much more magnificent than the short stove in Huohou's back house, not only the blast furnace is lined up, but also a variety of small stoves are used to make all kinds of glazed utensils.

"This is Master Lin, the oldest glaze master in the glaze workshop, and most of the exquisite colorful glazed utensils we see come from his hands. Master Lin, tomorrow is the New Year, don't you go home today to clean up? ”

Xiaoqiu greeted Master Lin familiarly, and it was not difficult to see that their relationship was still quite close.

Master Lin looks like a relatively taciturn face, the furrows on his face are very deep, because he is often by the fire, his skin is shiny and dark bronzed, he concentrates on making the utensils in his hands, and asks questions and answers to Xiaoqiu casually on his mouth.

"Go back and sit, the women in the family have packed up, now with the children to make dumplings, I will come out to the stove to breathe, since I came, and simply start a furnace to make a few out, the province of the New Year, our glass reserves are insufficient, let you come over to urge the goods."

Master Lin said casually, his eyes were still staring at the red-hot glass blocks in the furnace.

Xiaoqiu smiled faintly, "Our glass is in short supply, and the merchants are urging it tightly, and I can't come over to urge one or two." ”

Lu Chengyang and Lu Changfeng watched by the fire, watching Master Lin twist a red lump into shape, and then slowly cool it down and slowly become colorful and transparent.

Master Lin blew a few breaths, turned the long rod in his hand a few times, and a beautiful shoulder bottle appeared in Master Lin's hand.

"Mr. Lin is ingenious, his craftsmanship is outstanding, and he is a true master!"

Lu Chengyang saw that the master was lifting his weight lightly, and praised him, and the sentence "sir" made Master Lin rarely turn his head and look at the visitor, "Childe doesn't have to boast, we craftsmen can't deserve the word "sir". ”

Lu Chengyang smiled, "The gentleman in the school is just a pile of words, which is the same as your glass skills, practice makes perfect, of course you can afford it." ”

A smile appeared on Master Lin's face, which was as deep as a woodcut, and a small head rod went down, and the formed glazed ware fell off the long pole.

"This is today's idle practice, it's very simple, but the shape of the instrument is quite regular, and today I have a fate, so I will give it to my son."

Seeing that Master Lin handed Lu Chengyang the glass ware that had just come out of the pot and was still a little hot, Lu Changfeng and Xiaoqiu were surprised. Lu Chengyang took it with both hands, "This glass ware is very exquisite, the student smiled and accepted it, and let someone take the article I wrote later, it is a return gift, and you don't have to refuse." ”

"Hmm."

Master Lin hummed faintly, took out a ball of glass and began to make utensils.

Xiaoqiu took the two of them to visit elsewhere.

"Brother is really loved by everyone."

Lu Changfeng said sourly.

Lu Chengyang slapped Changfeng's shoulder, looking light, but the brothers have been beating and exercising since they were children, and they still have some strength in their hands.

Lu Changfeng rubbed his shoulders and didn't dare to talk to Brother anymore.

After visiting the glaze workshop, I just returned to the front hall from the backyard of Huofu.

Xiaoqiu went to report to his wife, Changfeng followed Brother back to the study, and saw Brother solemnly placing the glazed ware on the Bogu shelf next to the desk, and took out the Four Books and Five Classics that he marked daily and wrapped them.

"Xi Yan, go and send these books to the Liuli Workshop to Master Lin."
