How did I become an old artist?

Chapter 3 The leisurely countryside, the fox begging for food!
Tianmu Mountain, with emerald peaks and ridges, verdant ancient trees, the danger of Qiyan and strange rocks, the victory of flowing springs and waterfalls, is known as the Kingdom of Big Trees.

There is a small mountain on the east side of the mountain range, named Nuwa Mountain, and there is a small mountain village on it, named Nuwa Village.

Nuwa Village is built on the mountainside, and the whole mountain village is simple and full of vitality.

At this moment, Zhao Chen is concentrating on making porcelain blanks in a courtyard.

Drones fly high in the sky, live-streaming his video-making process.

A mobile phone was also set up on a tripod not far away, and together with the drone, they recorded the scene together.

The live camera will switch under Zhao Chen's control.

At this moment, the live broadcast showed that 76 people were watching online at the same time.

In the picture, five porcelain blanks of different shapes are placed on a table.

They are a jade bottle, an inkstone, a small bowl, a jade plate, and a jar that looks like a kimchi jar.

The five porcelain blanks are all white-gray. Although they are made of mud, if you look closely, the surface of the blanks is smooth and complete, without any rough holes, which is pleasing to the eye.

Moreover, the shape of the five porcelain blanks is very exquisite. The drone rotates 360 degrees around to shoot close-ups of the porcelain blanks. No matter from which angle you look at it, these five blanks are completely symmetrical structures.

Dozens of viewers in the live broadcast room were also very excited.

[This little brother has a really good technique, and the bottles and jars he made are so beautiful. 】

[No wonder it is called a folk craftsman, this craft is amazing! 】

[I've been watching his live broadcast for an hour, and it's very stress-free, Treasure anchor! 】

[The man is also quite handsome! 】

The barrage in the live broadcast room gradually increased.

Zhao Chen continued to narrate unhurriedly: "The third step of billet drawing is completed. Fortunately, my billet making technology has not deteriorated, and the billet produced barely meets the standard."

"Because my kiln is not too big, I can only fire five cubes of porcelain at a time, so I made so many in the first batch."

"The next step is to wait for the five square porcelain blanks to solidify a little bit, and then proceed to the fourth step of trimming."

"Blotting is far from being as simple as it seems. It seems that the porcelain body is symmetrical, but whether the thickness of the porcelain body is consistent, even the porcelain maker does not know."

"This will affect whether the final porcelain can be fired with a transparent glaze color. If the thickness of the inside of the porcelain body is uneven, the fired porcelain will be a failure."

"Sometimes hundreds of pieces of porcelain blanks all fail in one furnace. This situation can often be seen."

He explained to netizens about the process of refining porcelain.

Only then did netizens realize that there are so many specialties in refining porcelain.

A little carelessness is a failure.

There are more and more netizens in the live broadcast room. Gradually, the live broadcast room has broken through the [-] people mark.

A folk craftsman who quietly makes porcelain in a beautiful mountain village, such a live broadcast is rare on the entire live broadcast platform.

Moreover, Zhao Chen never said such things as "the old man pays attention to him", "the family members come to support him".

He concentrates on his own business.

Netizens felt very relieved when they saw his process of making porcelain blanks.

Moreover, many people are looking forward to the final results of these five white-gray blanks.

The porcelain blank still needs to be placed for a while, taking advantage of this time, Zhao Chen washed the mud off his hands, and then cleaned up all the surrounding waste.

Then, Zhao Chen picked up one of the blanks, put it on the turntable, and started the fourth step: blank trimming.

Blank trimming is just a general term, which actually includes multiple steps of digging, carving, and sticking.

For Zhao Chen, his billet trimming is to use a knife on the surface of the billet to trim uneven edges and corners.

As the blank rotates on the turntable, little by little white mud powder is scraped off by the cutter.

Time passed slowly, and it was almost noon before he knew it. Zhao Chen finished repairing the five blanks and put them in a cool and dry place to dry.

The next step is to wait until the blank is completely dry before proceeding to the next step, so Zhao Chen is not in a hurry.

He stood up, went back to his room, changed into clean clothes, and planned to go to the village to buy some vegetables.

When Zhao Chen came to the front yard, what caught his eyes was the vegetable gardens on both sides and a stone road in the middle, and a green fence surrounded the outside, which looked fresh and green.

A drone recorded the footage.

Everyone saw that Zhao Chen's yard was very large, with many bungalows scattered in it, and behind it were mountains and trees.

[The host's house is so beautiful, it looks like at least seven or eight hundred square meters! 】

[It also has its own small yard, which is great! 】

[I'm envious of my real name! 】

[This mountain village is so beautiful! 】

The barrage suddenly increased.

Zhao Chen walked out of the courtyard door, and the door didn't need to be locked. In a mountain village like this, few outsiders came.

Outside the door is a stone road, with unknown weeds growing on both sides.

"This is Nuwa Village, the place where I lived since childhood."

"Life in the mountains is not as convenient as life in the city, but it also has a little more tranquility. Most of the people who stay here are old people. They deal with some field affairs every day, and rest in the village for the rest of the time."

Zhao Chen told everyone the story of the mountain village.

He walked in front, and the drone followed him live.

Five Chinese pastoral dogs ran past his feet, looking like a gang of earth dogs.All the dogs in the village form gangs, here and there, and there are gang fights from time to time.

On the road, an old man with a cow was walking towards him, with a cigarette stick hanging from his mouth.Some old people are used to smoking dry tobacco, and they like to put shredded tobacco on the bong and light it for smoking.

Commonly bought cigarettes are boring to them.

This is because the farming work in the field was heavy in the early years, and this kind of dry tobacco smoked vigorously and vigorously.

"Zhao Chen, when did you come back?"

After seeing Zhao Chen, the old man asked with a smile.

"Uncle Liu, I came back the day before yesterday and cleaned up the yard for two days." Zhao Chen replied politely.

"How long will you be back this time?"

"I don't plan to leave for the time being, I'm just in the village, doing some small things."

"Aren't you leaving? What can you, a talented student, do to develop in this backward village? It's a waste of talent." Liu Wu said with a little regret.

Nowadays, young people are all moving to big cities, and those who stay in the village either have a family business to inherit, or they don't have much ability.

And Zhao Chen is an undergraduate student in the history department of Peking University, and he is a "high-achieving student" who does not appear in the village for many years. Now that he is back in the village, Liu Wu naturally feels it is a pity.

"Uncle Liu, society is now networked, it's the same everywhere."

As he said that, Zhao Chen pointed to the drone behind him, and said with a smile, "I'm not doing a live broadcast."

Liu Wu looked at the drone, a gadget for young people, and he didn't quite understand it.

The two chatted for a few more words, then Zhao Chen went to the village supermarket to buy vegetables and meat.

Seeing fresh grapes and strawberries, Zhao Chen also bought some.

After shopping, Zhao Chen was in a good mood, and walked on the way back with a few bags of things.

At this moment, Zhao Chen suddenly heard a low humming sound, like some animal calling.

Zhao Chen stopped immediately.

Seeing Zhao Chen stop, the netizens in the live broadcast room also looked over curiously.

Then, a beautiful picture appeared in front of the netizens.

I saw an adult fox drilled out of the tall grass next to the road. It looked at Zhao Chen cautiously, and there seemed to be a bit of pleading and flattery in its expression.

【Wow!It's a fox!so cute! 】

The audience in the live broadcast room suddenly exclaimed.

[The environment is so good, you can actually see wild animals on the road. 】

[What is this fox doing? 】

Seeing the cute look of this fox, Zhao Chen couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth.

He is a person who likes cute pets very much. These days, he is planning to go to someone in the village to find a pastoral dog to raise.Most people in the countryside raise dogs, as well as some cows, sheep, chickens, pigs and so on.

Seeing this fox, Zhao Chen also thought it was cute for a moment.

The fox is a common wild animal in the wild. It is the ultimate humming monster and is very cute.

Zhao Chen saw that the fox was hungry, so he took out a strawberry from the bag and gently placed it in the grass in front of the fox.

Then, in order to prevent the fox from becoming wary, Zhao Chen took two steps back.

The fox raised its head and looked at Zhao Chen. At first, it was a little alert, but gradually it seemed that Zhao Chen had no malicious intentions, so it crawled over and took the strawberry in its mouth.

The fox happily ate strawberries, his eyes narrowed into two crescents, as if he was smiling.

Seeing its appearance, Zhao Chen took out another small bunch of grapes and placed it in front of the fox again.

This scene of love made the netizens in the live broadcast room amazed.

[This picture is really good! 】

[Treasure anchor, I love it! 】
