Chapter 35 Customized porcelain jars (2)
Ge Lijun's face changed a few times. He turned over and got off the horse and knelt on the ground, "My dear Ge Li, the minister, bowed to the emperor!"
Zhao Dongting didn't let him get up and said, "Mr. Ge is really good at teaching his children..."
After saying that, he turned his head straight and walked towards the storefront of the porcelain workshop not far away.
Of course, Li Yuanxiu and Yue Peng would not care about Ge Lijun anymore, and they also turned around and left.
Ge Lijun glared at his incompetent son fiercely, knelt on the ground and looked at Zhao Dongting's back, his eyes gloomy.
After walking about ten steps, Zhao Dongting suddenly turned around and said in a deep voice: "If Lord Ge no longer disciplines your son well, then I can only discipline him on his behalf."
Ge Lijun quickly calmed down his expression and kowtowed heavily, "The Lord forgives his sins."
Zhao Dongting stopped talking and turned around and left again.
The bright big eyes at the end of the crowd also quietly left at this time.
When Zhao Dongting's figure disappeared into the porcelain workshop, Ge Lijun stood up and asked his cavalry to untie his son and his friends, and then got on the horse and took the army away.
There was a military advisor next to him, and asked Ge Lijun, "Sir, don't we go in and follow the emperor? To serve the people?"
Ge Lijun snorted coldly: "What's there to follow? Should I look at the child's face again?"
The military advisor said: "But in this way, the emperor must not blame you for being rude?"
Ge Lijun sneered, "So what if you blame him? Why don't he do this?"
The military advisor's eyes sterned, and knew what his master was thinking. He pondered slightly and said, "Then why don't we bring him to the mansion? In the future... Isn't it beautiful to use the emperor to command the princes?"
Ge Lijun looked at him with a look of idiots, "You are such a elm-head! In the public eye, we forced the emperor away. How will we discuss your elders outside in the future?"
The military advisor smiled embarrassedly, "It's still the adults who think carefully."
Ge Lijun nodded proudly, turned around and looked at his dejected son behind him, and instructed: "Jun'er, stay at home for the past few days, don't come out to cause trouble." He said this a little heavier, "Don't try to trouble the emperor."
He still knew his son's nature. He had never suffered any losses before and was red, afraid that he would really dare to pull the emperor off.
Ge Jun really had this idea in his mind, but he was not afraid of heaven or earth, but he was afraid of his father's death. He could only nod honestly at the moment.
And there, Zhao Dongting, Li Yuanxiu and Yue Peng walked to the storefront of the porcelain workshop.
As soon as Yue Peng entered the door, he whispered to Zhao Dongting: "Your Majesty, this Lord Ge does not seem to be a loyal and righteous person like Lord Lu said. He just looked at your eyes and seemed to have noticed a bit of evil intention in it."
Zhao Dongting chuckled softly, "What a loyalty, it's good that he didn't proclaim himself king or surrender to the Yuan army."
From Ge Lijun's various details and actions just now, Zhao Dongting could naturally see a lot of things. After all, he managed a large company with hundreds of people in his previous life and experienced countless social engagements. If he couldn't even see this thing, his eyes would have turned pale.
"What a slander!"
Li Yuanxiu cursed in a low voice, then hesitated: "Master, should we leave first? I am afraid that the slander will not benefit you."
Zhao Dongting said in a clear mind: "Don't worry, he doesn't dare."
Then, looking at the puzzled expressions of Yue Peng and Li Yuanxiu, I had to explain: "Now everyone knows my identity. If he dares to do anything to me, if the matter is spread, he will be cursed by the people. He will definitely raise troops to attack him. With his mere Leizhou troops, he will become the target of public criticism at that time and there is no way out."
Li Yuanxiu and Yue Peng looked at each other and saw the strong shock in each other's eyes.
I really don’t know how the little emperor has a brain. At this age, his mind is so mature and sophisticated.
The two of them suddenly felt that they seemed to have lived to be a dog over the years. Especially the older Li Yuanxiu, this feeling was even more intense.
The people from the porcelain workshop were watching the fun just now. When they saw Zhao Dongting coming in, they hurriedly fell to the ground, "Welcome to the Emperor..."
The shopkeeper, the messenger, and the whole room was full of kneeling.
Zhao Dongting was also a little surprised when he saw the dazzling array of porcelain in the house.
Song porcelain is very famous in history, among which the five major official kilns are the most. Although there are no official kilns in Leizhou Prefecture, these porcelains are made in exquisite styles.
Zhao Dongting thought to himself that if these porcelains were put into modern times, they would be endless wealth!
But he just thought about it.
I traveled to the ancient times in a daze, but I really didn't dare to think that I could travel back to the modern times.
Let everyone kneeling on the ground get up, Zhao Dongting said, "Can you take on the job of making porcelain here?"
The shopkeeper bent down with respect and humility on his face, and kept saying, "I'm going to pick it up, I'm going to pick it up."
Zhao Dongting gestured with his hands and said, "A porcelain jar of about a size of about one and a half inches left on it. If you don't want to be exquisite, the less conspicuous, the better. How much does such a porcelain jar cost?"
The shopkeeper thought for a while and replied: "Go back to the emperor, including the raw materials, labor, etc., the cost is about two cents."
Of course, he didn't dare to quote the sale price to Zhao Dongting.
Two cents, the price is so cheap that it is beyond Zhao Dongting's imagination.
According to the current market in the Song Dynasty, two cents can buy four buns, and if converted to modern banknotes, it will cost about two yuan.
One tael of silver can be converted into a one-day money, which is only one thousand yuan. Now it is in a war period, and the discount rate is actually higher.
Even if you make tens of thousands of porcelain jars, it won’t cost much.
Zhao Dongting said: "You can make a sample for me first."
The shopkeeper hurriedly invited Zhao Dongting and the other two to the back, and the servant served tea and fruits attentively.
This is the emperor, who actually came to his own workshop, and they couldn't even imagine that they could see the emperor. It was a matter of glorifying the ancestors.
Behind the store is a workshop. Zhao Dongting sat under the grape trellis and watched the workers work.
After all, it was a large workshop, and the rough embryo was formed in just ten minutes.
The shopkeeper personally brought it to Zhao Dongting.
Zhao Dongting looked at it. The jar was round and looked similar to the land mine. He couldn't help but feel happy, "That's it. I need to customize 30,000 pieces. How long will it take to complete it?"
The shopkeeper asked carefully: "Master, do you need to carve flowers and apply glaze?"
Zhao Dongting shook his head, "No, just burn the kiln with such a rough embryo."
Lace, carving, glazing, etc. are all steps in making porcelain.
