Volume 2 Fengyun Hui Qingzhou Chapter 4 Haiwen Qilu, Volume 13

"Elder Yu, Young Master Qin, two seniors. ”

"Now that we're ready, it's time to start the kiln. ”

The young man finished speaking, his eyes swept over the surrounding figures, and his face was calm and calm.

"This time the kiln is opened, all matters are decided by this son, everyone must do their best to help, and do not slack off. ”

Elder Yu faced the many craftsmen in front of him and once again exhorted.

"Rest assured, Elder, we will not fail in our mission. ”

The artisans echoed in unison, all full of confidence.

"Open the kiln, light the fire!"

At the sound of an order, two figures next to the main kiln slowly pushed open the door of the cave, and there was a flickering fire in it.

"The last time I saw it fired in a kiln, I don't know how many years ago. ”

The burly man smiled heartily at the tall man, his expression full of aftertaste.

"When did the third brother learn to miss the old like this?"

But when he saw the tall man with his hands behind him, his tone was quite playful.

"You kid, you're here to make fun of me again!"

The burly man feigned anger and kicked the man in the back of his buttocks, but he dodged it.

"The gentleman doesn't move his mouth, third brother, you're far from it. ”

The two of them talked and laughed, walked in front of everyone, and walked to the front of the cave in the blink of an eye.

Several furnaces are neatly arranged, and the walls are symmetrically distributed with large and small caves, and a huge molten pool in the center gradually heats up, and the heat wave hits people.

"What's the temperature in the cave?"

"The yellow and white flame has the right temperature and can be used as raw materials. ”

When the young man heard this, he bowed his head slightly in response, and secretly called for the wordless book spirit in his heart.

"Little doll, what should I do next?"

"Mix and grind the required raw materials according to the ratio on the letterhead, stir well, and put them in a furnace for smelting. ”

"After the furnace fire turns to green and white, the original solution is taken out, extracted and filtered, and cooled and condensed. ”

"And then?"

"What's the hurry?"

A chuckle slowly spat out from the wordless book in his arms.

"To fire this thing, the most important thing is to be in a hurry. ”

"The timing is right, and the master will tell you what to do. ”

"Yes, you're the uncle today, you have the final say!"

The young man smiled and shook his head, telling the craftsman beside him all that the wordless Shuling had said.

As soon as these words came out, several craftsmen did not move immediately, but looked at a bloated figure not far away, as if implying an inquiry.

"Whatever Jiang Gongzi says, you will do. ”

"Today, the two elders and I are just supervising from the middle, and the specific process is indeed under the sole responsibility of Jiang Gongzi. ”

Seeing that Elder Yu was solemn and explained repeatedly, the craftsman already knew in his heart and hurriedly did so.

"Feldspar, dolomite, turquoise ......"

"Galena, Sky Fire Mine, Snow Rock Crystal ......"

"Seven up, eight down, fifteen times each. ”

"Sift out the impurities and coarse ore, mix them in proportion to the letterhead, and grind them to a fine powder. ”

The boy followed the detailed steps taught by the wordless calligrapher, and informed the many craftsmen word by word.

Before the words fell, I saw a touch of surprise on everyone's faces, as if they felt particularly novel.

"Inquiry, what is this road?"

The burly man had never dealt with any of these things, so he naturally had no idea the details.

"It's very weird, and it's not an ordinary kiln method. ”

I saw the tall man frowning slightly, as if he was quite puzzled by what the young man said, and he was deeply puzzled.

"Stinky boy, don't make a mistake here!"

The gray mouse clenched his fists and couldn't help but pinch a cold sweat for the young man.

Although Qin Yun had always believed in the young man, he couldn't help but feel a little uneasy at the moment.

As for the many craftsmen, they had different expressions on their faces, but they were all forced by what Elder Yu had just said, and they still didn't stop moving in their hands.

Now it seems that only Elder Yu is still calm and indifferent, although he didn't say a word, his expression was calm.

"Childe, the raw materials have been ground properly according to the proportion, what should be the next step?"

If you want to do a good job, you must specialize in your work.

In a matter of moments, three or five skilled craftsmen had ground the raw materials and loaded them onto the kiln trays.

"How's the fire?"

"The faint yellowish-white flame is higher than the normal temperature of entering the kiln. ”

"Wait. ”

"This ......"

When everyone heard this, they immediately looked at each other.

From the beginning of the preparation of materials to the preparation now, every move of the young man seems to be unreasonable, but it implies some clever craftsmanship in the process of firing the kiln, which is really unpredictable.

"Obey Childe's orders and continue to heat up. ”

Seeing that many craftsmen were hesitant, they heard Elder Yu slowly spit out a voice, and his eyes were full of interest.

"Yes!"

The firelight shines brightly, and the face is flushed.

Dry firewood and flames collided with each other, and coal burning stones were thrown in one after another.

The temperature in the cave rose sharply, and many craftsmen were bare-chested and sweating like rain.

The young man's eyes were fixed on the flickering fire under the kiln, and his heart secretly communicated with the wordless book spirit from time to time.

"Brother Jiang, who has always been a master of art and bold, why is he so flustered today?"

A childish sound suddenly came from the wordless book, and there was a hint of ridicule.

"You doll, what do you know?"

"Brother, I call this cautious, and I can't make any mistakes. ”

Although the young man was slightly uneasy in his heart, he naturally couldn't lose his momentum.

"Oh, really?"

"That's natural, my brother never lies. ”

"Well, the master will reluctantly believe you once. ”

The wordless scholar surprisingly did not argue with the boy, but agreed with it.

"Childe, the furnace fire is now yellow and white, faintly pale cyan, is it in the furnace?"

A thin craftsman kept wiping the sweat from his forehead, and turned to the young man and asked in a loud voice.

"Into the furnace. ”

The sound is neither high nor low, but it is clear enough to be heard.

The tray mold is put into the furnace, and the raw materials are slowly delivered to the depths of the flame.

From time to time, there is a loud sound of sand and gravel tumbling and colliding, intermittent, big and small.

"Childe, how long will it take?"

"Continue to heat up, turn all the fire to white, and then take out the ingredients. ”

"What?"

When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but burst out in surprise.

Porcelain is refined in a fire kiln, or other large and small objects, and the furnace fire can be slightly pale to determine the object.

Now it is only the first process of raw material smelting, and the teenager has to wait until the furnace fire turns white, which is really unbelievable and unheard of.

"Childe, at such a high temperature, I'm afraid that before the raw materials are turned into liquids, they will have dispersed into mist and steamed. ”

A craftsman beside the furnace seemed to be unable to bear the boy's previous achievements, hesitated again and again, and finally mustered up the courage to give a warning.

But instead of showing the slightest panic, the corners of the young man's mouth were slightly raised, and his smile grew.

"Dare to ask this eldest brother, do you know why Fang Cai mixed a little snow rock spar into it?"

"Childe, after working in the cave for so many years, this little common sense is still quite clear. ”

The craftsman smiled at the boy and spoke eloquently.

"Snow crystal, also known as zeolite, is put into a little when the mineral is smelted, which can not only prevent the liquid from boiling, but also improve the purity of condensation, which is really a good product. ”

The craftsman said nothing, but when he saw the young man bowing slightly, he seemed to agree.

"This big brother is right, but there is a little bias. ”

"No way!"

"The little one used to be the one who was in charge of the furnace firing process. ”

"How snow crystal should be refined, the source of the ingredients, and the price geometry, the small heart is the clearest. ”

Craftsmen in this line of work are not afraid of hardship, regardless of gains and losses, lest their craftsmanship be spurned.

Now what the young man said seems to be ordinary, but in fact, he has faintly touched the dignity of a senior craftsman.

"Since Jiang Gongzi said this, I don't know how much he knows about the usefulness of this snow crystal?"

Seeing that Elder Yu frowned slightly, he slowly spit out a voice at the young man.

There is no contempt in the slightest, and if there is an offense in the words, I hope to bear more. ”

The young man only cared about opening his mouth one by one according to the message conveyed by the wordless book spirit, but he did not notice the tone of voice.

"I also happened to see in an ancient book that in addition to the above two effects, snow crystal is supplemented by dolomite and turquoise, which can be blended in a specific proportion to reduce the temperature of raw materials into vapor. ”

"What?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone, including Elder Yu, was shocked again.

"Snow Rock Crystal still has such an effect?"

"The younger generation doesn't dare to hide it, it's true. ”

Just when everyone in the kiln was half-convinced, a cold voice was heard slowly.

He was right that snow crystal can lower the boiling point, as is indeed recorded in ancient book fragments. ”

Looking in the direction from which the voice came, I saw a tall middle-aged man with a solemn face, and there was an implicit look in his eyes.

"Jiang Gongzi, I don't know which ancient book you saw this method from?"

The young man was stunned when he heard this, and he didn't know how to answer.

"The Wonders of the Sea, Vol. 13. ”

At this moment, he heard a childish sound floating out of the wordless book in his arms, which slowly came into the young man's ears.

"What?"

"Strange Stories of the Sea, Ancient Fragments!"

The tall man's expression suddenly changed sharply, and the eyes that looked at the young man were meaningful.

"But there is still a lone book?"

"I was fortunate enough to see it that day, but now I don't know where I am. ”

The boy smiled and shook his head, answering one by one according to the instructions of the wordless scholar.

"It's a pity, it's a pity!"

The tall man suddenly stomped on the ground again, looking lonely, and his words were extremely regretful.

"But also, if everyone could easily see the true face of such a rare thing, wouldn't it lose its original meaning. ”

"Inquiry, what are you muttering here?"

Seeing the man's appearance like this, the burly man couldn't help but be puzzled, and hurriedly interrupted it.

"Third brother, if you can get this fragment, in the business world of the Great Zhou, the Qin family will not be able to monopolize seven points. ”

"Is that true?"

The burly man knew that the man in front of him was cold by nature, and even the closest people around him had never made jokes easily, let alone made up these false news out of nothing.

"I heard my father mention it once earlier. ”

According to legend, it records many rare treasures in the world, and marks the places where they are located one by one. ”

"In addition, there are still many exquisite crafts that have been lost for a long time, and any one of them can be called earth-shattering heirlooms. ”

Without waiting for the tall man to answer, he saw Qin Yun's eyes look shocked, and he couldn't help but spit out a voice.
