The lady is busy farming

Chapter 735 Guawang Mountain

Qiangwei stood up in surprise and looked at the two lotus-leaf-shaped purple sand trays. The purple-red color and full grains, with careful maintenance, will definitely look better. "The color of the firing is really nice, very good, I personally like it very much. Master Zhao can think about the firing temperature. The temperature and time should make the color of the purple sand different. If possible, Master Zhao can try it."

Master Zhao's eyes lit up when he heard this, "Boss, to tell you the truth, I really have this idea, but I still need to think about it." The temperature of the tea tray fired this time is the same as that of the purple sand pot, and the There is a difference between the color and the color of the purple clay pot. This discovery was only discovered after comparing with the purple clay pot after it came out of the kiln.

"It's not urgent. Originally, the things we are doing now are all figured out bit by bit by ourselves. With practice slowly, we will always get better and better." Qiangwei is only making suggestions, and she only has specific things. Theory, not practice.It is already good that Master Zhao can discover these characteristics by himself.

"By the way, Master, didn't you just say that there is still something I need to do? Dare I ask what it is?" Master Zhao stroked the edge of the tea tray, and suddenly remembered that the Master seemed to say that he needed his help just now.Talking about the tea tray, I forgot it.

"Well, don't worry, I just want Master Zhao to take us to Guawang Mountain to see this purple sand mine. Haven't you been around here all the time, you should know something about this mountain?" Since Master Zhao can find out This purple sand mud can be used to make pots, but I don't know how many ore bodies there are.

"We have lived at the foot of Guawang Mountain all our lives, and we are quite familiar with it. The purple sand mud we use is found all over the back mountain. Is the quality similar? I also accidentally found it when I was looking for clay. I found it, and then I tried to burn a few pottery bowls, and the effect was not bad, so I kept paying attention." Master Zhao said, thinking of those days when he was invited by the official kiln, when the villagers knew about it, they were all envious Terrible, said that he was lucky.

Many villagers even tried to make purple sand utensils, but the good times didn't last long. The high-ranking officials in the capital didn't agree with the things they made by themselves, and they thought they were too rough and tasteless.It is not as good-looking as celadon and white porcelain.

After returning from the official kiln, I didn't come back for a long time, and the originally planned day was so ruthlessly ruined.Even because of this, it also affected Datong's marriage.After being ridiculed by the villagers for a while, he had just accepted such a life, but unexpectedly, he was approached by his current boss.Not only did they prepay the money in advance, but they were also very polite to them. Such a good owner could not be found even with lanterns.

"Then ask Master Zhao to take us to have a look, and by the way, tell me about the situation of this Guawang Mountain." Qiangwei nodded, and she knew that it would be most suitable for Master Zhao to lead the way.

"What's the problem here, do you want to go now? I'll clean up, and we'll go up the mountain right away." Master Zhao knocked his big cigarette pot, stood up and was about to enter the house.

"Let's go now. When the weather is fine, let's go for a walk." Qiangwei stood up and told Lianxin to get ready, and they were going to hike up the mountain.

"Master, wait a moment, let me get ready," Master Zhao said, turning around and entering the room. When he came out, he was dressed in a neat short skirt, leggings and bloomers, and a pair of mille-soled cloth shoes. It really was the most suitable attire for going up the mountain. up.

"Boss, you can go." Master Zhao carried a woodcutter in his hand and a bamboo basket on his back.

"Master Zhao, it shouldn't be far away, do we need a carriage?" Fei Cui couldn't help but ask after walking a few steps.

Master Zhao paused, "From the beginning, the carriage can go to the foot of the mountain, and if you take the path, you can get there in a quarter of an hour." They are all girls' homes, so it is understandable to be afraid of hard work.

"It's just right, Fei Cui, you ask Datong to help you put a few purple sand tea tables in the carriage, and then follow the carriage to the foot of the mountain to wait for us. We can play on the mountain for a while, and then we can go home directly." Take a few back first. I use the tea table for myself, and give it to Xuanyuan Yun, Wei Xiuxian and Song Fei. If there are good things to share with everyone.As long as these young masters use it well, people will like to follow suit. Slowly, her tea table will start to become popular.

"Okay girl, the servant is watching at the foot of the mountain." Fei Cui was very happy to accept this job, she was a little afraid of climbing the mountain, she was afraid that she would hurt the girl if she lost the chain halfway.Leaving Jade aside, Master Zhao led Qiangwei's master and servants through the narrow path. Sure enough, as he said, within a quarter of an hour, they were already standing at the foot of the mountain.

"The whole mountain here is called Guawang Mountain. I found the place where I found the purple sand mud and walked up for a while. There is also purple sand mud at the foot of the mountain, but it's not as good as the ingredients above." Master Zhao said, taking it from his back basket. Take out the machete, take the lead and walk in front, deal with the protruding branches when you encounter them, cut off the bushes that block the road, and open the road so that the girls can walk more easily.

"Master Zhao, are there any wild beasts on the mountain?" He Ru walked behind Master Zhao, seeing his quick movements, couldn't help asking curiously.

"Hehe, girl, don't be afraid. There are no wild animals around here, at most there are some pheasants and rabbits, but there are in the deep mountains. I have never been there. I heard from those hunters. People in the village seldom go into the deep mountains and have the most activities. What I want is to dig some wild vegetables at the foot of the mountain." Master Zhao said, driving ahead, although he looked a little old, but his movements were really quick.

"Girl, wild beasts live in the deep mountains, so they don't come near the village." Qiangwei smiled, not only people are afraid of wild beasts, but also wild beasts are afraid of people, okay?Their favorite is the deep mountains.

"The owner is right. I have lived in this village for most of my life, and I have never seen a large prey." Master Zhao said, leading everyone to the middle of the mountain, and then stopped in an open space. "Boss, here we are. There is purple sand mud under here. The old purple sand mud was transported down from here. That hole was dug by the old man."

Qiangwei walked to a big hole according to Master Zhao's instructions, looked up and down, and nodded. She knew that the main components of purple sand mud were clay containing iron oxide, quartz, mica and other substances. These things usually look nothing. In particular, as long as it is made into a finished product and then fired at a high temperature to oxidize impurities, a double-pore structure can be formed, which is most suitable for making tea.
