Farmer's little lucky wife has magic

Chapter 554 554. Porcelain Competition (45)

It was already midnight.

Seeing that he had killed the enemy and had a trusted brother by his side, Third Master Lu let himself pass out.

Tang Jinghong put away his sword, helped Third Master Lu up, and then said to the surviving brothers of Third Master Lu, "Everyone come with me, and go to the General's Mansion to recuperate."

"Thank you General Tang."

……

morning.

The Chu family got up early to wash and dress up, and after breakfast, they went to meet Li Zhenzong and the others and came to Xilin Garden together.

Xilinyuan is the place where the annual porcelain competition is held. At this time, many people who are interested in porcelain have come here, coming in and out, and it is very lively.

Outside the gate, both sides of the street are full of small stalls selling breakfast, with constant hawking and prosperity.

Chu Xuyuan sniffed, "I would have come here for breakfast if I knew it earlier, it smells so good."

Chu Xuyao ​​deeply agreed, "The porcelain competition will be held for two days, so we can come back tomorrow."

Chu Xuyuan looked back at Chu Xuyao, "How do you know that it will be held for two days? Sixth Sister didn't say so."

"If she doesn't say anything, you can ask." Chu Xuyao ​​felt that his seventh brother was too weak, and when he heard about the porcelain competition, he asked the whole competition clearly.

The porcelain competition will be held on September [-]th and [-]th.

The venue is Xilin Garden.

Organized by the first porcelain merchant in Daling, also the Cai family of the imperial merchant, the specific person in charge is Cai Yuting, Uncle Cai of the Cai family.

The Cai family has been an imperial merchant for many years. Since Master Cai passed away, the Cai family has been run by Mr. Cai, but Mr. Cai may not be very good at management, and the family is declining.

But a lean camel is bigger than a horse, so the Cai family should not be underestimated.

There are many porcelain merchants in the dark, waiting to take away the Cai family's status as an imperial merchant. If the Cai family does not win this competition, then the Cai family's status as an imperial merchant will be in jeopardy.

At present, there are two families who are most likely to take away the position of Huangshang, one is the Zhang family and the other is the Yang family.

Both the Zhang family and the Yang family used to be imperial merchants, and they went from prosperity to decline, but the talented generation appeared in the younger generation, so they led the family to prosperity.

There are many porcelain merchants in Daling, and each porcelain merchant can recommend three people to participate in the porcelain competition.

The three people recommended by the Li family were Chu Qingshuang, Li Zhenzong's first apprentice and his cousin Li Shaoya, and Li Zhenzong's third apprentice and his cousin Xue Yigang.

After hearing Chu Xuyao's words, everyone gave admiring glances. The little guy's ability to obtain news is pretty good.

Chu Xuyao ​​calmly accepted everyone's attention.

At this time, people from the Yan family came over, people from the Yan family and Li family greeted each other, and the Chu family stepped aside, it had nothing to do with them.

Yan Yanrong pointed to Chu Qingshuang, and then said to her elder brother Yan Helin, "Brother, she is Chu Qingshuang."

Yan Helin frowned, and Yan Yanrong told him that Chu Qingshuang always used her talents to ridicule her from time to time.

"I heard that you are the best porcelain maker in the Li family?"

These words instantly pulled Chu Qingshuang to the opposite of everyone in the Li family, "very good at talking".

The Chu family felt very uncomfortable hearing this. Li Qingyu wanted to defend her daughter, but was stopped by Chu Qingzhi, "Mother, let Qingshuang take care of it first."

The higher a person goes, the greater the obstacles he encounters. He must learn to grow by himself. Those who are supported by others are much more likely to fall down.

Li Zhenzong was talking to members of the Yan family, so he didn't notice the undercurrent among the younger generation.

Chu Qingshuang glanced at Yan Yanrong, who snorted coldly and turned her face away.

"I think you must have heard it wrong. I don't know what to do and dare not say such a thing, but I should have said..." Chu Qingshuang pointed at Yan Yanrong, "Better than her!"

Yan Helin thought to himself that it was really not easy to deal with, and his brows frowned even deeper, "Yan Rong is a lady from a rich family, unlike you, a village girl, who had never touched porcelain before going to Li's house, and your hands do farm work every day." , it is natural to be more flexible.”

Chu Qingshuang nodded, "That's right, is it a very honorable thing for the eldest lady to be inferior to a village girl? Is it worth talking about?"

Yan Yanrong scolded, "Smart teeth, Chu Qingshuang, at Li's house, Master spoils you, but outside, no one spoils you."

Chu Qingshuang said with a cold face, "I'll give this to you too, Yan Yanrong, you are inferior to others, so you asked your elder brother to humiliate yourself in front of me, you are really a good sister."

Yan Helin's face is black, can he use idioms, what does it mean that he takes his own humiliation?

Yan Yanrong pointed at Chu Qingshuang, "You..."

Chu Qingshuang turned her head to ignore Yan Yanrong, she said to Yan Helin, "You want to protect your sister, I understand, but please find out the situation, and if you have the ability to beat me in the competition, don't come in front of me again Ba, I don't like to hear it."

Yan Helin, "..."

The Chu family all lowered their heads and laughed, Qingshuang, this girl, is not forgiving.

After Li Zhenzong finished speaking, he came over and called the three contestants to him, gave some detailed instructions, and then led them into Xilin Garden.

The others followed behind and walked in together.

Yan Yanrong clenched her fists, "Brother, you must defeat Chu Qingshuang and kill her spirit."

Yan Helin glanced at Yan Yanrong, "Let's go."

Yan Yanrong stomped her feet and followed, Chu Qingshuang was really difficult to deal with.

After entering the Xilin Garden, the spectators walked on the left, and the contestants walked on the right, in an orderly manner.

Chu Qingshuang and the others came to the place where the number plates were collected, and each received a wooden plate with a large number engraved on it.

In order to ensure impartiality, the contest is anonymous.

After the contestants got the wooden signs, they put them away one after another, so that no one else could see them. If they cheated, they would be notified in the competition and banned from participating forever. It was very strict.

Get the sign and go to the queue
Only 75 porcelain merchants sign up for each competition, and there are a total of [-] contestants. In one round, [-] people compete at the same time. There are four rounds in total, two rounds in the morning and two rounds in the afternoon.

After the porcelain embryos are kneaded, a special person will send them to be fired, and the next day they will be rated by ten judges, all of whom are very prestigious seniors in the porcelain industry.

There is a square dedicated to kneading porcelain embryos in Xilin Garden. Chu Qingshuang and the others lined up near the square after receiving their number plates.

There are four teams in total, and you can freely choose which team to line up for.

The first team is the first batch of contestants, the second team is the second batch of contestants, and so on.

The three of Chu Qingshuang and the three members of the Yan family were all in the second team, and the first team was already full.

After the four teams were all lined up, a man in charge came to the place where everyone was queuing, "Please invite the first team to participate in the competition in the square. The time will be one hour. Please control the time well."

The people who came to participate in the porcelain competition were all veterans. After listening to the steward's words, they walked towards the square calmly.
