Chapter 358: Did She Feel Our Prosperity Here?
With this relationship, and Chonghua has already gotten the answers he wants to know, and at the same time, he also learned what kind of thing the play is from Shijing's mouth.
It's a heritage, it's a... The great art that can be listed with music and dance, Yu Zai and Prince Changqin compiled a simple script, and included the opera in the "Eight Winds", and Chonghua learned about the so-called eight winds, that is, poetry, songs, music and dance, and drama.....
In addition to the Eight Winds, the pottery craft of the Central Plains is listed as "Heavenly Craft" and described separately, and it is listed in the same volume as the Eight Winds, and Shijing also specifically mentioned that Xiang and Xiongtao have both said that the eldest brother of Xiang is a person who is very good at making pottery.
And elephant, now between the mountains and the sea, is the first person to try to interpret the "play".
Although this proposal was put forward by Yu Zai, the title of "pictogram" and the original title of shadow puppet play have become a symbol of the elephant, and when he heard this, Chonghua's heart was very unbelievable and very gratifying.
"My brother is terrible. ”
After a trip to the south, thousands of miles of mountains and rivers were exhausted, but I didn't expect to look back suddenly, and his name had begun to be praised in the world.
When he left, he was still so stubborn and unbearable, will this far-away traveler be favored by heaven and earth in the end?
"I didn't expect that I also left a name in the south, relying on the praise of Xiongtao and my younger brother, I am really ashamed, looking at the humanities, in order to turn into the world, what virtues and talents do I have, can be so included in the Jane!"
"Woo Zai.... At the end of the year before last, I learned his name, the plough of the Central Plains, and I went to imitate his plow, I learned a lot from him, but I didn't expect him to teach my younger brother...."
"I'd love to see him if I could. ”
Chonghua said words of thanks, and couldn't help but be a little in a trance, he had been listening to the story for a long time, and as time went on, the more he looked at the pictures at that time, the more he felt extremely emotional.
By the time he had only made a simple plow, he had already invented something more complex, and he had created it all in a situation of poverty and whiteness, which he was far from being able to match.
But there is competition to be motivated, Chonghua is even more grateful to Yu Zai, although he has never met, but this "peer" has been spurring himself forward.
At the same time, he also felt a little ashamed, being praised from afar, but Chonghua himself felt that his craftsmanship was probably not worthy of being included in such a big thing as Jianmu, and Xiongtao and Xiang inevitably boasted him a little too much.
What is our eldest brother, this is the potter who has to worship the Kongsang clan, this is the first young merchant in Shouqiu, this is one of the pinnacles of craft pottery, that pottery can be cowhide....
I'm not, I don't, shut up!
Listening to Shijing's words, Chonghua's face was a little unbearable.
I'm really not that cowhide, if I had that cowhide, I would have been... Can't you be humble!
Blowing all over the sky, and what kind of reflective and transparent pottery, saying that I can also fire it, brother! I have to be measured in my dreams! How can there be such a thing, brother!
I haven't burned it!
"I really don't know how to burn any transparent pottery, how can there be such pottery!"
In the face of Shijing's inquiry, Chonghua almost couldn't bear it, because at that time, Yijun boasted that he knew better than Ah Hong, and Yu Pan said that maybe Xiang's eldest brother could also burn this kind of thing, and in order to save face, he directly said that his eldest brother could burn anything.
Because this cowhide was blown too big, and Xiongtao also estimated that he responded, saying that Chonghua might really be able to burn, so he thought that Emperor Shun had changed his career to become a chemist.
"No, I won't... Please don't ask again. ”
As the saying goes, people will talk a lot when they are idle, why did you go to the south, didn't you go to learn technology, and you were so idle every day!
The elephant blows on the ground, and the big brother flies in the sky... Fly and fly, sooner or later you will break your leg.
But Chonghua also knows that this is a change in the elephant, but it is a little extreme, from the original seems to be the king of children, in fact, some people have low self-esteem, and begin to transform into self-confidence, which is a good phenomenon, with self-confidence, with goals, and cultivating sentiments, the state of life and people's personalities will undergo earth-shaking changes.
Chonghua is sincerely happy about this, but it would be better if he didn't blow himself into the sky....
But the transparent pottery, Shi Jing was a little disappointed: "It turns out that you haven't made pottery for a long time, but it is transparent pottery, and when it was made out, what Wu said was something called 'colored glass'." ”
As soon as he said this, Chonghua was stunned.
What the hell, is this really there?
There are not many good things in the south, but every one of them has never been seen in the Central Plains.
Chonghua took Shijing to visit the market in the land of Taotang, and Shijing also saw it, from the Kongsang clan, and marked the famous "eggshell pottery" that was fired after Chonghua's improvement.
"Ah, it's Chonghua! Haha, I haven't seen you for a long time, I didn't expect you to come to Taotang... Yo, you're still the ruler of the Rank Sect! You can take care of me more!"
The big man who sold pottery was a member of the Kongsang clan, Chonghua also knew him, and greeted him cordially, and when he worked by the river in the past, he had a good friendship.
On the other hand, looking at these pottery, Shi Jing almost spat out the fragrance, because this pottery is indeed exquisite compared to the pottery in the south!
Of course, the price is also prohibitive, Chonghua reminded her in a timely manner, this is a kind of handicraft, the actual value is not high, fired out, not the average person will buy back, most of them are placed here, to do a publicity, to tell others, how superb their pottery craftsmanship is.
Of course, in addition to pottery, there are many more huge, carved and polished rough stone tools.
In the market, animal skin carpets are spread, and there are vendors holding copper knives in their hands, carefully carving bone tools.
At the same time, those who sell ploughs, those who sell tea grass, and those who sell ores, fruits, chickens and ducks.... There was everything in the market, the cattle were low, they were gnawing on the grass in the hands of the sellers, there were bargainers, and after the catastrophe of the great floods, the people who should have done business gradually returned.
"This is not the most prosperous time, because of the flood, the merchants in various places have left, and the opening of the market is also an order not long ago, because the emperor said that the people should resume their lives as soon as possible, open the market, everyone barter, or exchange money for shell money, after all, they can take what they need. ”
Shi Jing saw that some fruit was sold, and among the pottery of the seller, there was some familiar smell.
"Huh, is it vinegar?"
Shi Jing was a little surprised, and the seller was also confused: "What do you say, this is the juice of mountain peaches and plums, some people like to drink, do you want to buy it, the accent is wrong, you are not from Tao Tang, right?"
"I couldn't afford to eat meat, and I didn't have much food, so I took the chaff and mixed it with the juice and mixed it with the corn. It can make the taste not light, and it is very good to eat. ”
Shi Jing said: "Ah, I heard Wu talk about this thing, this is the predecessor of vinegar!"
"Our tribe has something even better, it's vinegar!"
The seller scratched his head, Chonghua was also a little confused, Shi Jing smiled: "Tao Tang is really prosperous, even if it has just suffered a disaster, it has recovered so quickly, we are very poor there, but because there are few people, and because of the farming method promoted by Wu, it has been a bumper harvest in the past few years, and with food, Wu has produced these things, in our rural cooperatives in the south, a kind of black water that is more sour than this fruit juice is called vinegar." ”
"So, this thing is not as good as ours there!"
————
"Emperor, Chonghua is taking her to Taotang's market, and she is halfway around today. ”
In the land of Tao Tang, Emperor Fangxun listened to the report of "eyeliner".
"Did she feel the prosperity of our place?"
Eyeliner responded: "Yes! But there is another thing, she said that the kind of sour juice you like to drink is not as good as the south, and there is a better one there, called vinegar! Now the seller is angry and no longer sells the peach stall you often visit in disguise!"
