Datang first village

Sound, color, shape, taste!

Wu Zhao said four ways to identify autumn green and black. Autumn tea is long, and the tea in the hands of tea merchants in the Tang Dynasty is divided into three seasons of spring, summer and autumn. In the past, when pressing tea bricks, no one really seriously considered it. The difference between the three seasons of tea.

After the method of fairy tea came out, old tea lovers would naturally think about it.

The tea merchants in Tang Dynasty knew at least two of the four methods mentioned by Wu Zhao.

But no one can explain and master all four.

What Wu Zhao possesses is thousands of years of accumulated knowledge!

The royal family enjoys tea inside, and there are celebrities, literati, and guests tasting tea outside.There are also people enjoying the fun.

Taoism, Buddhism, and Confucianism will naturally not miss this grand event.

The appearance of Master Mercy who has been in retreat for several months is the brilliance of Li Yuanxing, and Li Yuanxing's theory of destroying Buddha is self-defeating.

"Guannei, the first product. Princess Mingyue personally appreciates the tea, and it is the ancient stone Wuqing from Lingnan. The tea is washed with Yaozhou royal official kiln, and the Yaoceladon! The teapot and teacup are made of Hebei Liantian porcelain!" Those who inquired about the news would spread the news from the situation in the temple.

At the moment, at the big rally, an old man sat on the ground with his hands on his chest.

All the tea guests immediately came to help, the old man's badge said, Hebei Quyang Kiln!

Several Taoist priests wearing blue and white gowns ran over, and immediately after the inspection, some doctors immediately took out the medicine box.Some people were pinching people, and another person brought water to feed the next grain of Danshendan.

The old man regained his strength: "I, my family's porcelain!"

porcelain!In Western languages, the name of China is porcelain. Under the promotion of Li Yuanxing, Chinese porcelain has entered a period of great development hundreds of years earlier.

Hebei Quyang Piantian Porcelain is Ding Porcelain, one of the five peak porcelains in the Song Dynasty.

Ding Porcelain: The decoration techniques are mainly white glaze printing, white glaze engraving and white glaze scratching, as well as white glaze picking and gold color drawing.The printing is mainly based on flowers, mainly including lotus, chrysanthemum, daylilies, peonies, etc. There are also animal patterns such as mandarin ducks, dragons and phoenixes, and lions. The pictures are rigorous, symmetrical, and neat and elegant. .

Due to over-firing, it has the characteristics of mang mouth and tear marks due to drooping glaze, so local celebrities named this porcelain Liantian!

The old man was happy in his heart, but he didn't know how to express his joy.

Many famous people came to congratulate in person. Thousands of porcelains were sent to Tianchi. It is a great honor to be selected for tea appreciation in the temple.This time, Wu Zhao did not charge money for advertising fees. It was Li Yuanxing's death order to promote the development of porcelain.

Princess Mingyue brewed it herself, and the first pot used Dingci.

"Hebei Quyang Liantian porcelain, please put on the big case!" An official from the Ministry of Rituals shouted, and a set of exquisite porcelain was immediately placed on the empty big case.

Some people were not convinced, and stood up: "It is unfair to other kilns to file a case without evaluation!"

"The big case is only for display. If there are famous scholars commenting, it can be displayed for an hour. Princess Mingyue passed on the way of immortal tea on behalf of His Royal Highness King Qin. How dare you say that Princess Yue doesn't know porcelain?" A scholar stood up and retorted loudly.All the people are also shouting, put the case, put the case.

The old kiln in Quyang was so excited that he couldn't even speak. After he received the news, he fired a total of three kilns and only picked out five sets of high-quality goods. This time, he made the whole village look good.

The one who was even happier was Cui Dunli!

Because this is Quyang Kiln, which is a branch of Boling Cui family, and the main family has specially injected funds to promote a kiln.

Cui Dunli knew that this time Princess Mingyue would not give anyone face, only really good porcelain could be on the table.I remember that before the Tianchi Conference, Princess Mingyue said that although Yaozhou Kiln is good, but due to the limitation of raw materials, it can be ranked tenth at most. It still depends on the face of the Qin Palace. A real world-famous kiln requires many factors.

"The second pot is still brewed by Princess Mingyue, Xihang Chamber of Commerce, West Lake Longjing. It is made of Wanfeng Iced Porcelain Tall Straight Cup from Henan Province."

Porphyrin, another fainted.

Ruci!

In Wu Zhao's mind, this is the top of all porcelains, one of the true pinnacles of porcelain, even among the five famous kilns in ancient times, it is also the best.Especially the one selected by Wu Zhao, which is as thin as a cicada's wings, and the porcelain can even reach a translucent state. The snow-white porcelain is paired with the clear green Longjing.

The best, it is really an incomparable fairy tea.

Inside, there were exclamations of surprise, because the fragrance of tea, the color of tea, and the treasure of ice porcelain, I am afraid that only gods can appreciate it.

"Bingci, go to the case!" All the people shouted.

The kiln owner cried bitterly and shouted: "Ice porcelain is too difficult. After several months, only one kiln was fired, and there were only two finished products. One of them was flawed, and the old potter smashed it." The kiln owner asked the boy to put out a Cloth bag, which has a tall cup that has become several pieces.

"Good porcelain, good cup, good potter!" An old man in a Confucian robe praised loudly.

"Even if it's broken, there's a big case."

Ru kiln is more than just ice porcelain. Ru porcelain is simple and elegant in shape. Its glaze is like "after the rain, the sky is clear and the clouds are broken", "thousands of peaks are green and green", the soil is fine and moist, the body is like Dong body, the glaze is thick and the sound is like an engine. , bright but not glaring, has the characteristics of "pear skin, crab claws, sesame flowers", and is called "like jade, not jade, but better than jade" by the world.

The rest of the kiln owners who are also from Wanfeng are looking forward to it even more, because one kiln is successful, and the other kilns are also bright because of the same production area.

"The third brew, the old man Taishanghuang made it himself, and the Taishanghuang chose Dahongpao. The old man Taishanghuang was picking out porcelain. His Royal Highness Princess Mingyue asked, if there is any recommendation for the best tea that can be selected from the outside, is there any recommendation for the best porcelain?" Fourth brew , the Supreme Emperor chooses the tea recommended by the folks!"

Celebrities, Confucian scholars, Buddhists, and Taoists all sent recommended small bamboo plaques one after another.

Soon, news came from the palace.

"The third brew, Bashu Yixing Zisha was selected!"

Enthusiastic and intense, Li Er sat on the main seat, what he saw was the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty, and what he saw was the joy of the people.Eunuch Gao has been reporting the situation outside.Li is playing with a few very unique cups in his second hand. They look like jade but not jade. Porcelain can be made to such a state.

Li Er was very satisfied.

The only small regret is that Li Yuanxing found a ridiculous excuse for not coming to Tianchi.

Li Yuanxing's reason to Li Er was that he needed to meditate for a few days, because he had a feeling in his heart, and the reason for his feeling was food and fancy clothes, which is what people need most after they have enough food and clothing.

At this time, Li Yuanxing was sleeping and taking a nap.

Alone on the big bed, this was the first time since Li Yuanxing got married, enjoying this big bed alone.

The hasty knock on the door awakened the noble King Qin.

"That bastard, you actually disturbed this king's sleep!" Li Yuanxing scolded.

"Uncle Wuhuang, Uncle Wuhuang!" Li Yin shouted outside the door.

Li Yuanxing patted his forehead, and he completely forgot about this little guy. It has been many days since he was thrown into the workshop, and he really didn't care about it. Such a person.

Li Yuanxing was startled when he opened the door.

Is this still the prince?

Li Pu was wearing a full set of burlap overalls, with a grayish white cloth scarf around his neck, his head was wrapped in a gray cloth, covering his hair completely, his left face was black and gray, and his right face was fair. Yes, not because he only washed half of his face, but because he suffered a slight injury on his face and someone applied medicine so he only washed half of his face.

That little hand is no longer a beautiful little hand carved in powder and jade, there are seven or eight wounds.

"I'm injured..." Before Li Yuanxing had time to care, Li Min pulled Li Yuanxing's clothes: "Uncle Wuhuang, Uncle Wuhuang. I succeeded. I have a scooter and a small bicycle!"

Li Yuanxing put on a piece of clothing casually, and a maid came running from a distance, Li Yuanxing didn't care so much, and hurriedly followed Li Yin as he saw him running.When he came to the gate of the backyard, Li Yuanxing carried Li Yin into the soft sedan chair, only to hear Li Yin constantly urging the bearer to run faster.

In the workshop, five completely different cars are placed there.

Li Yin jumped onto a cart: "Uncle Wuhuang, with my strength, I can use this cart to pull 120 jin of iron ingots and run around the workshop three times!"

How big the workshop was, Li Yuanxing didn't know whether Li Min was talking about all the workshops or just this workshop.

A foreman stood up and said, "Your Highness, after testing, Your Highness can go around the blacksmith workshop three times, which is a full ten miles."

Only then did Li Yuanxing walk to the cart.Observing carefully, Li Yin stood aside with a proud face, and continued to explain: "Uncle Wuhuang, this is called a lever. You only need to step on the two pedals back and forth, and the lever pushes the rear wheel to rotate, and the car starts to move." I can move." Li Yuanxing was surprised by Li Min's explanation.

Li Yin added: "We made seven different lengths of this pedal. The one that is too long saves effort, but the speed is too slow. It can be used for short distances when picking up heavy cargo. But if the road is long, it is too slow and too hard. I This one is designed according to the Three Hours of Yaozhou, and the length is better. There is also a shorter one, which is great for pulling light loads, or pulling two people for long distances!"

Good thing, although it is a reciprocating pedal type, the work is definitely not as good as a chain, but it has a simple structure.

The advantage of simple structure is that it is easy to maintain and manufacture.

Only then did Li Yuanxing fully observe the five cars.

Bicycles are mostly made of bamboo, and the wheels are also made of bamboo and hemp.Choose a belt drive, one-foot-diameter large casters and three-inch small wheels to drive the rear wheels forward. Looking at the structure, there are brakes. The brakes do not apply force to the wheels, but tighten the bearings to slow down the car.

Li Yuanxing pointed at the bicycle: "Have you tried it?"

"I've tried it, but it's far inferior to Brother Wuhuang's fast car. If I have a chance, I'd like to try it on Brother Wuhuang's Yaozhou Straight Road. I think I should be able to go to Yaozhou in two hours."

Li Yin's eyes are full of passion, the young man has been completely fascinated by the bicycle. (To be continued.)
