please make me king

Chapter 1070 The kiln farm

Chapter 1070
After Zhang Shun recommended "One Ear" to Song Qijiao, the magistrate of Yaozhou, as an official, Song Qijiao wanted to resign.

He couldn't help giving a salute and said: "I have filial piety in my body, so I can't accept that I can't accompany you. Please don't blame the king of Qin."

Although Song Qijiao was taken away by the rebels, he still needs plain clothes to work and cannot attend the auspicious ceremony, so he will not be able to attend the reception banquet for Zhang Shun later.

"Song Zhizhou, don't worry, let them participate in the banquet first, I have something to ask you." Zhang Shun couldn't help pulling him to the side room and said.

"Yaozhou's status is extraordinary. I don't know what are the difficulties and specialties of this place?" Zhang Shunxin said: I came here to solve problems and investigate people's sentiments. If there is nothing, then I can't waste time here.

Song Qijiao also said that Zhang Shun disliked his impoliteness and asked for a gift on an excuse. He could not help thinking for a moment and said, "Twenty miles to the north from here, there is a place called Huangbao Town. Since the Tang Dynasty, it has specialized in producing porcelain and has a long-standing reputation. : Yaozhou kiln."

"If King Qin is interested, I will accompany you for a walk tomorrow!"

"Yaozhou kiln?" Zhang Shun was taken aback when he heard the words, he didn't expect that Shaanxi still has a place to produce kilns.

"Porcelain produced in Yaozhou is said to have been one of the six largest kilns in the world. Although Jingde porcelain is famous all over the world, the Yaozhou kiln is still alive, and everyone in Shaanxi is happy to use it!" I also heard it quite a bit, so I couldn't help but interjected to explain.

"Success, then you will accompany me for a walk tomorrow!" It seems that the scale is not small, Zhang Shun thought, anyway, he just happened to go north to Yan'an, so why not take a look along the way.

There was nothing to say all night, and Song Qijiao led a thin horse to join Zhang Shun and the others in the early morning of the next day.

Zhang Shun frowned when he saw this, and said to Wang Jinyi, "I'll pick out a spare horse for him later, and let 'One Ear' follow along."

"There are many mountains around here, and there are thieves infesting. When he comes back, there is really an eventuality. Wouldn't he lose his life in vain?"

Immediately after everyone had breakfast, they rushed all the way north.

For a group of cavalry, twenty miles arrived in just one or two hours.

This Huangbao town is located in the loess plateau area where the alluvial and flood plains of the Weihe River transitioned from the rocky mountainous areas in the north of Guanzhong.

The Qishui River runs through it, forming the topographic pattern of the east and west plateaus and the central river.

Due to the long-term water cutting, the complete plateau surface was cut into broken and inclined platform, exposing large areas of loess.

"Soil erosion!" Zhang Shun frowned, and a word popped out of his mind.

However, survival is still the top priority in this world, so Zhang Shun had no choice but to hold back his thoughts and approached Huangbao Town with everyone.

As soon as he arrived near Huangbao Town, Zhang Shun saw kilns, large and small, lined up on both sides of the road.

When everyone came to the front, some of them were grinding raw materials with stone mortars and discs outside, and some were drawing embryos with the help of apprentices pulling wheels.

Others are glazing embryos in cave dwellings.

Outside the cave, there are hundreds of pieces of porcelain, large and small, of various colors, including lamps, bowls, bottles, cups, pots, plates, and daily utensils.

Zhang Shun picked up a plate and asked, "Master, how do you sell this?"

Seeing Zhang Shun's question, the master craftsman who was pulling the embryo quickly put down the buddy in his hand, wiped his hands on the scarf and said, "Your honor is joking, if you want it, just take it!"

Just kidding, seeing that this person is well dressed, and there are many people carrying knives and guns, how dare you ask for a price for something worth a few pennies?

"His Royal Highness, these are worthless!" Seeing this, Song Qijiao couldn't help laughing, "You just follow me, there is an old kiln here, I guarantee you will be satisfied!"

Seeing so many people, Zhang Shun couldn't say anything, so Zhang Shun winked and asked Wang Jinyi to send some people around, and then he followed Song Qijiao.

"This Yaozhou kiln is most famous in Huangbao Town, known as the 'Ten Mile Kiln'. In recent years, the nearby Chenlu Town, Lidi, Yuhua Village, and Shangdian Village have also had their own strengths, stretching for dozens of miles."

"This Yaozhou kiln was most famous for its celadon before, but today it is most famous for its black porcelain on a white ground."

"His Royal Highness Qin Wang, be careful, we are here!" Song Qijiao, the prefect of Yaozhou, explained while trying to help Zhang Shun approach a cave dwelling.

"No need!" Zhang Shun is young and strong, and he has some kung fu, so how can he help him?
He followed the uneven road and jumped to the entrance of a cave dwelling after a few jumps.

There are many cave dwellings in Shaanxi, but they are mainly distributed in northern Shaanxi.

In the plains like Sanyuan County, although there are special cave dwellings such as underground kilns, they are not the mainstream after all.

And near Huangbao Town, there are already cave dwellings all over these loess terraces.

Not long after, an old man opened the cave door and gave everyone a strange look.

"Master, has the furnace been turned on today?" Song Qijiao couldn't help asking.

The old man shook his head when he heard the words and said: "It won't open for half a year, and it will take half a year to open. Now it's only been five months and eight days since the last time, so don't worry!"

Yo, this is a master!

Zhang Shun couldn't help squinting his eyes, and said with emotion in his heart: It's amazing to understand hunger marketing in this year!
"Stop talking nonsense, this time a distinguished guest came, take out all your excellent treasures, and I will take whichever he likes!" Song Qijiao couldn't help being rich and arrogant.

"If it sells well, you don't need to open in the second half of the year!"

"Okay!" Hearing this, the old man hurriedly opened the door and welcomed everyone in, made a pot of good tea, and respected everyone.

After a while, he took out seven or eight pieces of porcelain and asked Zhang Shun to appreciate them.

Zhang Shun grabbed a blue bowl and looked at it for a long time. It seemed to be the tableware purchased online in the previous life, but he couldn't see any way.

"Celadon-glazed peony bowl!" The old man flaunted quickly, "Look at the color, look at the pattern, standard Yaozhou celadon."

"This is a technology hundreds of years ago, and now no one can make it except my family!"

"Antique?" Zhang Shun was taken aback.

"Cough cough cough..." Suddenly Song Qijiao, Hong Niangzi and others were almost choked to death by Zhang Shun on the spot.

"What antiques!" Hong Niangzi couldn't help crying and laughing, "Yaozhou celadon in the Song Dynasty was famous all over the world, but it was mostly lost due to war."

"The old man's skills are incredible, and what he sells is what others don't have!"

"How much?" Zhang Shun frowned, he didn't believe that the older he was, the more popular he was.

According to his idea, natural selection, survival of the fittest.

Since most of the Yaozhou celadon does not exist in the world, it is obviously a technology that has been eliminated, so why is it so rare?
"One...one tael of silver, you won't be able to bargain!" The old man was taken aback, and he couldn't help stretching out his finger.

How many?The ones outside are only worth a few pennies, and you have doubled it hundreds of times all of a sudden, so you take me for a fool?
"Don't, don't, it's nothing unusual, and it doesn't look good!" Zhang Shun didn't bother to talk to him, and found an excuse not to.

The old man took out seven or eight pieces in a row, but Zhang Shun didn't notice any of them.

The old man couldn't help being anxious, grabbed the lid of the teapot, lifted the teapot that was pouring tea just now, and said, "Then why don't you take a look at this one?"

"Huh?" Zhang Shun couldn't help being taken aback, and subconsciously asked, "Is the lid of the pot stuck?"

"Celadon Backflow Pot!" The old man couldn't help laughing, "This pot has no cover, and water is poured from the bottom without flowing out, so it's called a Backflow Pot!"

"My dear guest, if you want this set, you need three taels of silver!"
