Craftsman: I continue to learn for the sake of the saints

Chapter 73
What kind of person are you?

Qin Luo thought about it for several days, but only thought of four words - outer circle, inner square.

The surface is easy-going, but the heart is square.

square?
round?
From this, Qin Luo thought that these two characteristics, it seems, can be used in making pots.

It's just... how to combine?
How to combine perfectly on the basis of avoiding previous styles?

Square pots, among the purple clay pots, have always been known for being difficult and rare to make, and there is a saying that "one side is worth ten rounds".

The main reason is that the production process is extremely complicated.

The design requirements for the shape are very high.

At present, the most perfect square pot is the Bafang pot.

Octagonal bottom.

Eight square sides make the body of the pot.

The lid of the pot is also designed in the Eight Diagrams style.

This is the only square pot with both aesthetics and good sealing performance.

As for the rest...

It's really not easy to do.

but……

square pot.

Qin Luo initially confirmed this idea.

Since it is difficult to do, then do it yourself.

The more difficult something is, the easier it is to innovate.

……

The number of people coming from the village gradually increased.

Many of them came from afar and were arranged in the dormitory of the factory.

There are men and women, mostly young people.

This group of people seemed to be educated youths who went to the countryside. Anyway, it's okay to come here, and they immediately turned into street runners.

Otherwise, come to visit Qin Luo’s teapots together.

During the live broadcast, it seemed that they brought their own navy.

The good thing is that...

There is finally no shortage of labor.

Qin Luo was going to choose three boys who looked very reliable and reliable, and let them guard the kiln for him.

RMB 100 per person per night.

There are still people rushing to do this job.

Perhaps, they all stayed up all night cultivating immortals.

Anyway, lying on the bed and playing with the mobile phone is also cultivating immortality, and it is the same to watch kilns and play with the mobile phone here.

There were twelve people who signed up, and there were even girls.

How to choose?
Qin Luo thought about it, and used the simple wisdom he learned at the market.

copying.

This was originally a scam in the market. It was to ask people to copy the book in block letters within the specified time. There should be no typos or failure to finish. Gift.

It belongs to the game of gambling and playing.

Qin Luo's rule is, one person, one book, one pen, start copying, and the last three people who persist will win.

The comparison is patience.

After all, watching kilns does not require much physical strength, girls can do it, but patience is very important, you have to be able to sit still.

Hearing the interview rules, three people gave up on the spot.

If I had loved studying and writing at the beginning, I wouldn't have fallen to where I am now.

just now……

I didn't expect that I came here with the intention of lying down, wanting to earn some pocket money, and even wanted to write!
Quit it!
That's...just right.

The remaining nine people began to roll up.

finally……

There are two boys and one girl who successfully roll and win.

I got this part-time job of "staying up late to cultivate immortality".

Qin Luo asked Li Congcong to familiarize them with them for two days, and if nothing went wrong, he was officially appointed.

Three people work in shifts, one person a day.

It doesn't have to be too hard every day.

……

After this matter was completely resolved, Qin Luo focused more on designing the square pot.

In this regard, the previous design skills and online drawing helped a lot.

Science and technology pot...

Qin Luo's current thoughts have already begun to take shape.

Even thought of a name.

Very domineering.

It's called... Heaven and Earth Pot!

Taken from...the place where the sky is round.

For the bottom of the pot, Qin Luo is going to adopt a square shape, and it is square.

The lid is designed to be round.

From the perspective of traditional craftsmanship, this is almost impossible to complete, and it is an impossible idea.

but……

Think about it with the laws of mathematics, it is actually possible.

The so-called circle is nothing but a regular infinite polygon.

Limit thinking in mathematics is used here.

The theory is simple.

However, it is too difficult to practice it.

Qin Luo's design idea is to treat the entire pot body as a gradient superposition of regular polygons that are gradually limited.

At the bottom is a square.

Then it gradually changes all the way, and the angle is gradually smooth until it reaches the mouth of the pot, which can become a perfect circle.

As long as the changes are round enough, the pot shape can be designed into a beautiful shape.

He ran the drawing over and over on the computer, and tried to make it a few times, but he always felt that it was almost something, not beautiful enough.

However, this line of thinking is definitely not a problem.

It's just that more work needs to be done on the aspect of "beauty".

……

On this day, when Qin Luo was broadcasting live, he suddenly heard the noise behind him.

Looking back, I saw a man with a strong aura, accompanied by two bodyguards in suits and leather shoes, appearing at the door.

The man is about 40 years old, with a square face and a fashionable hairstyle. At first glance, he looks like the kind of boss who is rich and free, and loves to play.

The car he drives is a Rolls Royce Cullinan.

"Hello Brother Luo, I'm Zhang Zhengde."

"King of ginkgo."

He took the initiative to reach out to Qin Luo and said, with a smile on his face.

Qin Luo: ...

This scene is still a bit bluffing.

"Aren't you here to settle accounts with me?"

Qin Luo made a joke.

Zhang Zhengde was slightly taken aback, and couldn't help but chuckle.

"I happened to be on a business trip nearby, so I came to see you..."

"By the way, take my jug."

"Brought you a present."

He said with a smile, and the bodyguard behind him immediately handed over the silver box he was carrying.

Qin Luo casually refused: "Hey, what an embarrassment, it's the first time we meet..."

Zhang Zhengde said with a smile: "When I didn't know each other before, I made you spend 3 yuan with just a few words."

He was talking about selling tree gall coordinates and asking Qin Luo to donate money.

talking...

He has already opened this silver-white box.

The inside is covered with black satin, which looks very luxurious, and there are two grids recessed inside...

In the grid on the left is a jar of tea, packed in a bamboo tube, very delicate, but I don't know what kind of tea is in it.

And in the grid on the right, there is a diamond, which looks shining, the size of a pigeon egg.

This?
Qin Luo's eyes were slightly startled.

This gift is too precious.

"Haha... Don't get me wrong, the diamond is given to the tea sister, and it is not as expensive as you think. This is artificial diamonds, one of my industries. One carat costs a thousand dollars."

"However, the quality is no different from that of natural diamonds, and you can make them as big as you want, especially bright."

Hearing what he said, Qin Luo was slightly relieved.

Diamonds, I probably know a little bit, natural diamonds and artificial diamonds have the same chemical elements.

It's just that the marketing channels are forcibly controlled and graded.

Huh?
diamond?

Sister Cha is very happy at the moment, and just wants to play with this sparkling diamond.

The female dragon is about the same, both are very interested in shiny things.

However, as soon as she stretched out her hand, she found that Qin Luo was one step ahead and had already held the diamond in her hand. She looked at it carefully, and soon, she seemed to fall into that state of forgetting everything.

"The facets of a diamond..."

"section……"

Qin Luo muttered to himself, feeling as if a little inspiration had penetrated into his mind.

The brilliant shape of the diamond facets seems to be able to be used in my own innovative purple clay teapot!
That neat and complicated feeling full of beautiful lines?
