My system is not decent

Garlic bottles, named for their mouth-like garlic, began in the late Warring States period and were popular in the Qin and Han Dynasties. They are made of copper and ceramics.

The official kilns mainly fired celadon. During the Daguan period, the glaze colors of moonlight, pink green and big green were the most popular.

The carcass of official porcelain is relatively thick, the sky blue glaze is slightly pink, and the glaze surface has large grains.

This is due to the effect of the different expansion coefficients of the tire and glaze after being heated.

Porcelain feet are unglazed, iron-black after firing, and the mouth is thinly glazed, showing a slight fetal bone, which is commonly referred to as "purple iron feet".

This is a typical feature of official kiln porcelain in the Northern Song Dynasty.

Northern Song Dynasty official kiln porcelain is rarely handed down from generation to generation, and it is very rare and valuable because of these characteristics.

But now, Chen Wenzhe has been able to control these characteristics at will.

It can be said that he can make whatever kind of porcelain he wants now.

After finishing these three pieces of pure official kiln porcelain, the official kiln porcelain can be finished this time.

But if it is produced in large quantities, I don’t know whether it can be supplied and whether the quality can be guaranteed. The main purpose of going to the field to check is to solve these problems.

If you want to get these high-quality purple gold soil, of course you can't just spend money to get it.

These high-quality porcelain clays were all preserved in the 80s and [-]s.

These types of soil are all exposed on the surface, so they are easy to find and mine.

Bujing puts the soil into baskets and puts it on a special trailer, which is pulled to the ground by people.

This is the convenience of modern people, everything can be bought with money.

No matter which method is used to obtain porcelain clay, it is not easy.

Just like now, the Jun kiln porcelain clay here is already better than when he used it.

And the quality of each soil is also different.

But among his various processes of making porcelain, there are people who do it more professionally.

So some of his subordinates will receive warm hospitality no matter where they go.

It is not as good as the high-quality purple gold soil we see now, which is the product obtained in this way.

There are also those dug downward with a certain slope, which is called step well.

After systematically imitating the official kilns, Chen Wenzhe had a deeper understanding of the five famous kilns in the Song Dynasty.

Generally speaking, the ceiling above the earth well must be fixed and supported to avoid landslides.

At that time there were very few cars and tractors, and in Shenhou Street, where Jun porcelain was made, manual rack carts were generally used to transport soil or coal to porcelain factories.

Processing is the first process in the production of Jun ceramics, and raw materials are the first to bear the brunt.

Chen Wenzhe was still very interested in the clay that his subordinates were using now, because he found that these people were even more professional than him.

As the saying goes, "If you don't enter the tiger's den, how can you find tiger cubs", so when looking at the soil, you have to go down to the earth well to see it yourself.

"Huh? This is purple gold soil? Where did you find it? This is made of Jun kiln porcelain?"

Generally, high-quality porcelain clay is tens of meters deep underground, and it is necessary to dig a mine to dig the soil, commonly known as an earthen well.

At the beginning, earth wells were excavated manually, and later some mines were mined with detonators and explosives.

Some soil wells are dug straight down and then dug to one side, which are called straight wells.

If it is successfully available after the test, people can send more.

Soil is the most widely used raw material in Jun ceramics, and it is mainly used to prepare casting mud and grouting materials.

It seems that this is also normal, otherwise he would not know how to make any porcelain, and he could finish it smoothly.

However, as long as he made a request, there are countless people helping Chen Wenzhe to complete it.

Later, when the mine was electrified, a climbing device was used, a small mine cart was filled with soil, pulled by a wire rope, and the soil was pulled out of the pit with a push of the switch, which saved a lot of effort.

This is like the saying "a clever woman can't cook without rice".

Without raw materials, mud and glaze cannot be processed.

And this is very difficult to do in ancient times.

It is composed of personnel from the supply department, technical department, laboratory, processing workshop and other relevant departments of the factory, and jointly went to the soil mine for inspection.

It seems that these people under him have opened up all the joints of the entire ceramic production line.

Generally, some professional master craftsmen go to the mountains to look for ore and soil, and bring back some for experimentation.

There are specialties in the art industry. For example, Chen Wenzhe is good at integrating superior resources to make better porcelain.

For example, if you are looking for native people, they usually mine soil in mountainous areas.

The soil well also needs to have an air distribution tube, that is, a place that is ventilated with the mine, so as to prevent the thin underground air from suffocating people.

Regarding the soil search, the masters once summed up a rule, that is, "soft soil is produced on sunny slopes, and hard soil is produced on shady slopes".

The buyers under him are often invited by the soil collectors to go out to see the soil.

For example, yellow gangue is dark yellow in appearance, some are mixed with gray, and contain more iron.

And he remembered that one production is one production, and the time is too short, no matter how capable his subordinates are, they will not be able to find more suitable raw materials in a short time.

Only in this way can we know how thick the soil is, what the storage capacity is, and how many years it is estimated to be used, so as to ensure the long-term stability of product quality.

The general soil materials are all obtained by Jun ceramic manufacturers, who go up the mountain to find them themselves, or send them to the factory by diggers.

When fetching soil from a straight well, first fill a basket or basket with soil in the well, tie the basket tightly with a rope, and twist the soil up with a pulley above.

And as his skills improved, the skills of all the craftsmen in One Thought Hall were also improving.

Just like soil selection, this is a very professional industry everywhere.

This is also something that can’t be helped, it takes time to do anything.

And as time goes on, this degree of completion will become higher and higher.

Generally, the people who dig the soil first send some samples, and after the firing test, they think it is valuable and usable, and the factory will send someone to look at it.

Drilling earth wells is dangerous, so it is very important to ensure safety.

Without a strong logistics, this is simply impossible.

Chen Wenzhe is becoming more and more professional now, and he knows more and more about the industry, because he is willing to spend money.

And the soil he sees now, some of which are of the highest quality, have been aged for 40 to [-] years.

Soil mainly depends on its quality and storage capacity. Generally, the quality of soil samples sent is very good.

Now the entire ceramics industry knows that Chen Wenzhe is the big money maker.

Just like the higher-quality purple gold soil he saw now, it is definitely not something that can be obtained simply by digging up the mountain.

For example, Jun kiln porcelain clay needs to be found on Daliu Mountain, where there are yellow gangue soil and purple gold soil at the foot of the mountain.

There is a donkey in front of the carriage, which saves a lot of manpower.

The soil sent by Shenhou mainly includes Huoshipo soil, Dongpo soil, Huaishuwan soil, Luowang soil, and Xisi soil.

On the other side of Mo Street, the soil was sent to Shenhou, and it was all carried by horses on the back of animals.

At that time, the three major factories in Shenhou not only produced Jun porcelain and colored glaze porcelain, but also produced a large number of other ceramic varieties.

For example, the State-owned Porcelain Factory produces fine pottery, Junci No. [-] Factory produces stoneware, and Junci No. [-] Factory produces glazed tiles.
