I don't want to be a saint

Chapter 65 There is a kiln at home!

These two gentlemen are also well-informed people. Seeing his appearance and posture, they didn't neglect him. They immediately got up and responded, "Yes! One night, 50 Wen!"

Long handsome is handsome, and temperament is temperament, but when slaughtered, he is not merciless.

Guo Yi couldn't help being taken aback, it really is a black shop!
50 Wen a night, even the best inn in Jiangling City, is not such a high price, right?
However, in this place in front of you, there are no villages in front of you and no shops behind you in a radius of a hundred miles. You can live there, or you can live there.

Fortunately, before leaving the house, my grandfather gave me a lot of money.

"live!"

Two people, 100 Wen, five candles for nothing!

Paid for lodging and meals in advance.Guo Yi and Zhu Zi scrambled to feed the mules with water and fodder.

Zhu Zi asked the men unloading the truck very familiarly: "Several old men, where is this well?"

While asking, seeing one of the men struggling to carry a box, he walked two steps over to help.

When the other men saw his movements, they all had smiles on their faces and enthusiastically guided him.

Zhu Zi went to fetch water, while feeding the mules, he also helped the men unload carts from time to time.

Soon, they won their favor.

"Hey! This kid, despite his young age, this strength is not small!"

"That's right, look at his physique, he's as strong as a calf!"

Zhu Zi laughed and scratched his head a little impatiently, and asked casually, "What's in this box? It's dead heavy."

"Hey! There's something good in here!" The men's tone was very strict, and they didn't reveal anything. Instead, they changed the subject and said, "You and your little man, where are you going?"

"We are going to Zhangjiawan in the west of Shanxi." Zhuzi was very honest.

"Yo! This is the same road!" The men grinned happily: "Why? Are you going to visit relatives in Zhangjia Town?"

Zhu Zi was stunned for a while, not knowing how to reply, but fortunately, another man immediately answered, "That's fine, you can go on the road with us. You go and tell your little man."

Another man also responded enthusiastically: "Yes, yes, yes! You can go with us. We are going to Zhangjiawan. There are several forks along the way. If you don't pay attention, you will go wrong!"

Fortunately, Zhu Zi was just being honest, but he wasn't stupid. Instead of agreeing immediately, he asked rhetorically, "What are you doing in Zhangjiawan?"

"Go there to collect straw mats." This time, the men didn't hide it.

Collect straw mats?
When Zhu Zi heard the words, he quickly realized and exclaimed, "Are you traveling merchants?"

"No!" All the men shook their heads in unison, and replied proudly, "We belong to 'Ruifeng Company'!"

"Our 'Ruifeng Firm' was once one of the largest firms in 'Yingchang Mansion'!"

"Yes! It's one of the best big companies. The straw mats in Zhangjia Town have always been collected by our 'Ruifeng Company'. Every once in a while, we come to collect them."

These guys, you talk to each other, unknowingly revealing a lot of information.

However, almost all the clothes on them were tattered, and the patches on them were next to each other.

There is no sign of a big business at all.

As for the Fuxing company, it is also a big company.Look at the clothes of the guys over there, it is much better than the usual middle-class people.

Although it can't be said to be very new, it is very clean and flat, without a single patch.

But looking at the group of guys in front of them, they don't look like the guys under the big company.

It's very down and out!

Guo Yi frowned and thought about it for a while, he couldn't figure it out, but he went to the side and interjected and asked, "Can your 'Ruifeng Company' accept porcelain?"

porcelain?

Hearing the words, the men all turned their heads, looked at him with some confusion, looked him up and down, and asked suspiciously: "Are you selling porcelain?"

"Well! There is a kiln at home!"

Hearing what he said, a man immediately put down the box in his hand and walked into the house: "Wait a minute, I'll call the second head of our family!"

When I was young, the man led a middle-aged man with white face and beard out.

Similarly, the middle-aged man's dress is not very good.He is of medium build, wearing a cotton robe that is a little too big and doesn't fit well, the shoes on his feet are worn out, and even the soft horns on his head are polished and shiny, giving him a sense of age.

It's very down and out!

Just like that, how dare you claim to be one of the largest firms in 'Yingchang Mansion'?

Where did such a big face come from?

And while he was looking at him, they were also looking at him up, down, left, and right.

Well, although the clothes are a bit worn out.

But the domineering attitude of the official family can't be cultivated in less than ten years.

Moreover, it gives people a very elegant feeling.And this feeling can only be possessed by scholars.

The man led him to the front, and introduced him, "This is the second head of our family, Shen Er! The second head, this is the young man who said that he has a kiln at home."

Guo Yi first bowed his hands and saluted: "It turns out that Shen Er is in charge! I'm Guo Yi, Guo Erlang!"

"Hmm." The middle-aged man known as the second head of Shen's family saw that he had done a good job of etiquette, so he quickly returned the gift, and said very modestly: "I, Shen Chengjiang! Added to be the second head of the 'Ruifeng Company'. Then a certain Just trust me and call you Erlang."

"May I ask your firm, what kind of business do you run?"

"As big as piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, as small as needles and threads, plus some daily necessities."

It sounds like a lot of eyesight, very complicated, but often the more complicated it is, the less money it makes.

No wonder he was so down and out.

Guo Yi nodded in admiration, and then said: "Our family burns porcelain, such as bowls, basins, and bottles."

"How's the quality?" Shen Er, the second leader, knew that he was an old expert the moment he opened his mouth.

Guo Yi couldn't help raising his eyebrows when he heard the words, feeling that there was something to be said about it, so he went back to the mule cart and took out a bundle from under the spread thatch.

In the bundle are some chestnut rice cakes and two bowls for soaking the cakes.

It was the two with the best appearance among the dozen successful bowls.

Shen Erdang didn't reach out to pick it up, but asked him to put it on the wooden box at the side, and just picked it up, first of all, he looked at the inscription on the bottom of the bowl.

Generally speaking, no matter who burns porcelain in the kiln, their signature will be printed on the bottom of the porcelain.

One is for advertising, and the other is to distinguish it from other people's porcelain.

But the bottoms of these two bowls were actually empty.Nothing at all.

Seeing his movements, Guo Yi immediately explained complacently: "These two bowls were originally for my own use, so there was no signature."

"En." Shen Erdao nodded in understanding, and then took advantage of the last few rays of the sun to look carefully.

I flicked it with my fingers from time to time, the sound was crisp, and the glaze was very smooth and even.

Well, overall it's pretty good.

Seeing that he was satisfied, Guo Yi said, "This is just ordinary white porcelain. We also have colored porcelain with flowers, birds, insects and fish painted on it."
