Chapter 107 There is no normal person around

How to become a person of taste?

This is a very philosophical question.

If you lived in Europe in the sixth or seventh century and had a piece of porcelain at home, you were definitely the most tasteful aristocrat.

But if you live in the 21st century, it doesn't matter. You can go to the Louvre very tastefully.

Obviously, taste is related to the times.

In the Qin Dynasty, an era when entertainment life was not developed, noble men measured a person's taste.

It's nothing more than whose concubine is beautiful and whose courtyard is gorgeously decorated.

And this just gave Zhao Kun a new way to make money.

Because porcelain would definitely be a hot spot in the Qin Dynasty.

Since Qin Shihuang unified the six countries, the number of nobles has increased, so much so that the old nobles have no intention of showing off.

After all, if you have it, others have it too.

In this case, the appearance of porcelain has become synonymous with "showing off".

This is like playing a game. Everyone has reached the full level of the Six Gods, and they are so bored that they can only hang up and chat every day.

But suddenly one day, an unprecedented piece of equipment appeared in the game. Can this not make people excited?

Thinking of this, Zhao Kun was in an unprecedented good mood.

So he quickly asked Jiang Chao: "Jiang Wa'er, where did you get the white mud you used to make the honey white?"

Jiang Chao was still wondering why Zhao Kun suddenly laughed. He was obviously stunned when he heard the question, and then replied: "It's in the cave on the north slope of the back mountain."

"Is there a lot of white mud in stock?"

"It's quite a lot. There are thousands of stones on the surface."

Hearing this, Zhao Kun's eyes lit up, and then he told his servant: "Go and call Wang Li quickly, and tell him that I have something important to see him!"

The servant couldn't understand why the young master was so startled, so he asked hesitantly: "Then...the fragments on the ground..."

"How long has it been and you are still bringing up fragments? Go quickly!"

Zhao Kunna glared and said without any doubt.

When the servant heard this, he immediately trembled and hurriedly accepted the promise and left.

Jiang Chao glanced at his back, then looked at Zhao Kun curiously: "What does the young master mean by this move?"

"I discovered that white clay can be used to make something called white porcelain. As long as we can make white porcelain, we will make it!"

Zhao Kun said with a smile on his face.

He has an encyclopedia, so he is not worried about the porcelain making process.

What needs to be done now is to investigate all the white mud in Pinyang, and then occupy all that can be occupied and buy all that can be purchased.

Although there is a Liu family pottery workshop in Pinyang, they are not aware of the role of white clay, so it is particularly important to seize the opportunity and implement a monopoly.

Soon, Wang Li ran over at the notice of his servant.

"Sir, do you want me to wipe your ass?"

Wang Li asked at the top of his voice as soon as he entered the door.

Zhao Kun twitched the corner of his mouth, secretly scolding this guy for being stupid, then frowned and scolded: "Why are you wiping your ass! I have business with you!"

Wang Li said "Oh" and subconsciously looked at Zhao Kun's butt. He breathed a sigh of relief when he found that there was no blood soaked out.

Then he looked at Zhao Kun, scratched his head and said, "Master, if you have any business, please tell me..."

Zhao Kun: "Do you still remember Jiang Chao making honey-white clay? Today I discovered that he can make utensils that are comparable to beautiful jade!"

"Ah?" Wang Li was surprised: "Compared to beautiful jade? Is that white mud so magical?"

"The magic is not the white clay, but the craft of making utensils with white clay!" Zhao Kun shook his head and said, "I have mastered this craft now."

"Then what is this kind of artifact?"

"porcelain."

Wang Li was stunned: "Porcelain?"

In fact, porcelain has already appeared in the Shang Dynasty, but the porcelain at that time was just primitive porcelain, which looked similar to clay pots.

The term porcelain also started after the Han Dynasty.

Therefore, Wang Li had no idea about porcelain, but if the original porcelain was shown to him, he would understand it at a glance.

Seeing that he was stunned, Zhao Kun said nothing and handed him the fragment in his hand: "The appearance of the porcelain is somewhat similar to the fragment in your hand, but it is not the same;

The porcelain made from the scraps of material in your hand is at best celadon, but the porcelain made from the white clay is white porcelain, and this white porcelain is comparable to beautiful jade."

At this point, Zhao Kun suddenly remembered something and took out a small porcelain bottle of Liuwei Dihuang Pills from his arms and handed it to Wang Li: "This is white porcelain!"

Wang Li took the small porcelain vase and looked at it. He was immediately attracted and couldn't help but sigh: "This white porcelain is so beautiful..."

As he spoke, he asked curiously: "What's in this bottle?"

"Well……"

When Zhao Kun heard this, his old face turned red, and he quickly snatched the Liuwei Dihuang Pills and glared: "Kid, don't ask so many questions. Now you understand the exquisiteness of white porcelain. Hurry and go with Jiang Chao to get the white mud back. The more you get, the better."

good."

Wang Li looked at Zhao Kun strangely and thought to himself, "You seem to be younger than me, right?"

However, white porcelain is really beautiful.

After pondering for a moment, Wang Li said: "Master, the matter of white clay is not urgent. Almost no one in Pinyang wants this thing. It's just that I'm a little curious about Master's intention of firing white porcelain."

"What's the purpose? Of course it's to make money."

"Making money? Didn't you just partner with us to open a restaurant and sell wine? Why does it sound like you need money very much?"

Zhao Kun rolled his eyes and thought, can rebellion not require money?

Now that the First Emperor has not passed away and the world is not in chaos, we take this opportunity to plunder some of the nobles' belongings to prevent them from becoming enemies in the future.

"The gambling incident has gone to waste. Jiang Chao and I will still have to live together. If we don't make money, will you support us?"

"sure!"

Wang Li said without thinking.

Zhao Kun: "......"

Jiang Chao: “…”

Wang Li: "If the young master stays in Pinyang from now on, you can eat, drink and have fun at our Wang family, and all the expenses will be mine!"

After hearing this, Zhao Kun looked at Wang Li with a complicated expression, and after a while, he sighed: "You are really my good brother."

"That's right!"

Wang Li raised his chin and said: "Money is something external to the body. With me, Wang Li, the young master will not live in abject poverty."

"Good brother, be loyal!"

Zhao Kun looked at Wang Li, nodded solemnly and said: "From now on, you, Wang Li, will be my brother of Zhao Kun. If anyone wants to bully you, I will kill him!"

Wang Li's heart was shaken, and he immediately looked at Zhao Kun with burning eyes. After a long time, he walked to Zhao Kun's bedside, grabbed his hand, and shouted: "Brother!"

"Okay, go quickly, I'll wait for you!"

Zhao Kun patted his hand and told him to calm down.

Wang Li was not a pretentious person. He released his hand in time and asked dully: "Master, do you still have any good wine?"

Zhao Kun: "......"

Jiang Chao: "..."

Wang Li: “…”

The three of them looked at each other without saying a word.

For a moment, Zhao Kun narrowed his eyes: "You are by my side, are you trying to get into my bar?"

Wang Li scratched his head and smiled: "Let's have some good wine with the young master."

"There are also beef jerky and sweet potatoes to eat."

Jiang Chao interrupted abruptly.

When Zhao Kun heard this, he raised his hands to his forehead and thought to himself, what evil had he done? There was no normal person around him.
