While reading the city records, Lu Dani exported the photos taken in Fengyang district that day from her mobile phone.

I was in a hurry and didn't look at it carefully that day. Now it's more shocking to lead it out and zoom in!

The photos are almost full of ceramic waste, and the finished and semi-finished products are piled into mountains in the roadside ditches! Many of them are mixed with large pieces of domestic garbage, which makes people can't look directly at them!

There are brand-new buildings nearby. There are mountains of garbage next to them. People here come and go, but they don't see it. Does it really smell bad for a long time? Already numb?

These small rivers and ditches are blocked. Once there is a heavy rainstorm in the flood season, it is easy to form waterlogging. Aren't these factories and residents afraid? Or has it never happened before?

Looking at these photos, Lu Dani's eyebrows could not help frowning.

Such a scene was so far away from her previous life that she had never seen such a messy and disorderly industrial area. For the first time, she was deeply shocked by such disorder and chaos.

Fengzhou City chronicle records that Fengyang District of Fengzhou has been producing ceramics for more than 1000 years since the Song Dynasty. In the early days of xinzhonghaoweili, Fengyang district was regarded as the production point for exporting ceramics in exchange for foreign exchange. At that time, the ceramics produced were exported to Europe, America and Southeast Asia, earning a lot of foreign exchange for the country. Last year, according to the data released by the leaders, the export of ceramics in Fengyang district has ranked first in the country. What an industry! He won the title of China's porcelain capital for Fengzhou and defeated Jingde film alive. It is said that later, in order to appease Jingde film and balance the relationship, the relevant state departments awarded Jingde film the title of Millennium porcelain capital.

But it is such a proud industry. Today's production mode is so backward and the waste is so amazing.

As a pillar industry of Fengzhou, it should be scientific and sustainable development. But what about science and sustainability? Such production must stay in the most primitive family workshop. It is a development of killing the chicken to get the egg. It is a predatory development of resources. It is unscientific and unsustainable!

The more Lu Dani looked at it, the more flustered she became.

Li Hui was cleaning the office. When she came to her, she suddenly stopped, looked at the photos on her computer screen and said in surprise: "Lu Dani, have you gone to Fengyang?"

"Have you seen these ceramic garbage?" Lu Dani asked.

"Of course I have. Many of my classmates work in Fengyang's ceramic factory!" Li Hui said, "I tell you, you don't have to buy the ceramics used by Fengyang people at all. Just go to the roadside and pick them up. Some of the discarded defective and semi-defective products are very good. They are used by ordinary people every day. They are also very high-grade! "

"Did you pick it up and use it?" Lu Dani asked.

"I didn't, my classmate said. It is said that many migrant workers go to the roadside to pick up plates, bowls and tea cups. They are everywhere. Some are not round enough, and some have a black spot on the disk. Anyway, they are defective and waste products. Many factories are stacked outside, so they are everywhere! You see, there are not only household porcelain, but also sanitary ceramics. There are toilets. Look -- "Li Hui pointed to the pile of garbage above.

Lu Dani looked carefully. It's really true!

A pile of high toilets and a pile of plates and bowls. These two things that can't be put together in life meet unexpectedly and closely together in this river.

"Do you have classmates in the ceramic factory?" Lu Dani looked at Li Hui and asked excitedly.

"Yes, many ceramic factories have."

"What do you do?"

"Girls basically repair embryos, decals and pick things. Those who are more powerful are engaged in design. Boys have grouting, mold making and kiln burning. It's hard -- "said Li Hui." Why are you asking? "

"Can you show me the factory where they work?" Lu Dani said.

"Yes, but stationmaster Yu won't let me leave." Li Huiwei.

"If not during the day, we'll go at night! Do they work overtime at night? " Lu Dani thought and wanted to say.

"Yes, they often work overtime. When there are many orders, they have to work overtime until after 10 pm!" Li Hui said.

"Then we'll go tonight!" Lu Dani said, "you lead the way, I'll drive and contact your classmates first. Make sure we can go in. I want to interview them, can't I? "

"Interview? Then I have to ask them. " Li Hui said.

"Don't talk about the interview, just go and see them. I'll see what happens -- "said Lu Dani, who was afraid that those people would not let them in as soon as they listened to the interview.

As long as she can go in and see them, Lu Dani has a way to ask what she wants.

"OK, I'll contact you at noon --" Li Hui said.

"We can't let webmaster Yu know. We don't tell anyone and carry out it quietly --" Lu Dani said mysteriously.

"Yes!" Li Hui also nodded mysteriously.

Li Hui thinks that after Lu Dani came, her life has become rich. She likes to be with Lu Dani very much. She is very happy and can increase her knowledge. Now she is also learning, according to what Lu Dani said, to find ways to improve herself.

In the evening, Lu Dani drove the old car with Li Hui to Fengyang district.

Half an hour later, the car arrived at Longfa ceramics, the factory of Li Hui's classmates.

This is a factory located in the village, with a large scale. The newly built factory covers an area of about ten mu, divided into three courtyards, several gates and security guards.

Li Hui leads Lu Dani in. The security guard just wants to cross examine. Shi Jie, Li Hui's classmate, comes out of it--

Li Hui and Shi Jie haven't seen each other for some days. When they meet, they can't finish talking. They are very happy.

Everyone walked inside as they talked. The workshop is full of dishes and cups, baskets and baskets, all over the floor.

"What process do you do?" Lu Dani looked at Shi Jie and asked.

"I repair the embryo --" said Shi Jie, "that is, after the ceramic is formed, the mold is out, and then repair --"

Lu Dani was stunned when she came to the place where Shi Jie worked--

Mud was everywhere, and the shelves were filled with freshly formed dishes, which looked wet. Several workers nearby are working hard. They all wore very crude rubber gloves, dipped water from the bucket with a big sponge, and kept wiping the newly molded dishes. The water in the bucket was muddy, basically mud, and they all wore rubber shoes on their feet.

After so many years in the 21st century, the conditions for producing ceramics are still so simple! Lu Dani never thought of it.

Shi Jie sat down in her own position and began to work skillfully.

Lu Dani walked to the kiln workshop. I felt the heat wave before I walked in. Several large ceiling fans on the roof kept turning, and there were several high-power electric fans on the ground. Lu Dani walked there and felt that she was about to be blown away by the strong wind.

The shelves in the workshop were filled with dried dishes and dishes. The kiln was red and working. There was a temperature control switch outside. Lu Dani saw that the temperature displayed above was 1050 degrees.

Several master like people sat on the small wooden table next to them, smoking and drinking tea.

Lu Dani took Li Hui and walked over.

"Hello, master!" Lu Dani shouted respectfully.

The middle-aged master was swarthy and looked at her warily, "are you new here?"

"I'm Shi Jie's friend. How many degrees does this ceramic have to burn?" Lu Dani asked.

The master smiled, "why do you ask this?"

"Curious -- I haven't seen --" Lu Dani said.

"It's hot in here. It's better for a young lady like you to leave quickly --" the master said while smoking.

"Master, do you work in such an environment every day?" Lu Dani asked again.

"Of course, this is my job --" said the master. "If you can't stand it, go quickly!"

"I'm fine!" Lu Dani said, "is it finished ceramics after high-temperature firing in this kiln?"

"Oh, there are many processes!" The master stood up and said, "this white porcelain should be burned to more than 1300 for about ten hours. After coming out of the kiln, you have to stick decals and trademarks, and then you have to burn it again -- "

"That's the finished product?" Lu Dani asked.

"Yes, we have to pick up the defective products and polish the bottom. The last thing left is the genuine and excellent products --" said the master.

"How high is the yield?" Lu Dani looked at the master and asked. This is the answer she wants most.

"Generally, there are seven good achievements. Sometimes it's only about 50%, and there are a lot of defective products, which is related to the mud and the previous processes, so to grasp the product quality, we have to implement it in every link -- "said the master.

Lu Dani nodded. The master was telling the truth.

"Throw defective products out at will?" Lu Dani asked.

"In the past, the factory was taken away by people. Later, when the processing cost was high, it was directly stacked outside and piled into a mountain without pulling for a period of time --" the master said, "it's a pity. It's a huge waste of resources!"

"Can't defective products be reused?" Lu Dani asked.

"Reuse is impossible. However, if we do not pursue too high quality of life, these defective products can be used. Some people have bought such defective products before and sold them to some old, young, frontier and poor areas. Now the freight cost is high and no one wants them -- "said the master.

Lu Dani wanted to continue questioning, but saw a middle-aged man like a boss come over, looked at her warily, and asked, "which department?"

"Are you the boss?" Lu Dani asked.

"Yes, I'm the boss. Who are you?" The boss looked at Lu Dani with doubts on her face.

"I -- I am --" Lu Dani immediately took out her work permit and handed it to her boss.

"Reporter? Who let you in? Huh? " The boss immediately said, "leave now!"

"Don't be angry. I don't mean any harm. I just want to ask you a few questions, okay?" Lu Dani asked tentatively.

"Sorry, I don't accept any interviews, and my factory doesn't welcome any reporters! Please leave at once! " The boss said angrily, and then angrily scolded the kiln master, "did you let them in?"

"No --" said the master weakly.

"Then who let you in? Ah? Who let the reporter in? " The boss was furious. "What did everyone let in and take the factory as?"

Lu Dani and Li Hui were stunned when they were frightened by the boss's loud roar! Li Hui's hands were shaking and she was holding Lu Dani. She wanted to disappear from here immediately.

The kiln master kept winking at Lu Dani and Li Hui and told them to go quickly! step on it!

Li Hui took Lu Dani's hand, moved quickly and slipped to the side door!

"Stop!" The boss's angry voice came from behind, "what do you want to do when you sneak into my factory?"
