Two hundred and thirty festivals travel motivation

 Zhang Dai said the three words "Master Zhao" almost word for word.

After hearing this, Liu San was convinced that the information was correct. The news that Zhang Dai was going south had already reached Lingao. However, due to Zhang Dai's schedule, he did not take the sea route, but took the land route along the coast of Fujian. All the people he handed over along the way were It was due to the various connections of Fushe, so the intelligence department could not control in real time when Zhang Dai would arrive in Guangzhou and Lingao. Furthermore, although Zhang Dai had a certain status in history and a certain status in Jiangnan Shilin, he was relatively Generally speaking, his intelligence value was not very high, so Lingao just sent a common situation report to the supervisors in various places, saying that if there is such a thing, just pay attention to it. If you don't notice it, it doesn't matter. With this series of premises, Zhang Dai When I arrived in Guangzhou during the Chinese New Year, Lingao was busy preparing for war, while Guangzhou was busy celebrating the New Year, so I was ignored.

"Just for sightseeing?"

Zhang Dai was a little annoyed now - maybe I still need to lie to you! However, he has always been known for his elegance, so naturally he would not show his displeasure easily. He nodded slightly and said: "Students are just idlers. They can't stay idle. Now, let’s walk around.”

"Now is the time of war and chaos, and Guangdong is in the middle of a war again. Sir, this idler has arrived at this time, so we have to be careful about his purpose..." Liu San smiled slightly as he said this, his face full of ulterior motives. smell.

Although Zhang Dai has the arrogance of a scholar, he also knows that "military law is ruthless" during the war. He pondered for a moment and said: "The students came to Guangzhou on a whim, and when the students came, Guangzhou was still under the rule of the Ming Dynasty. The current situation is not what the students expected." Can be expected..."

"I personally believe that Mr. Zhang has no ill intentions in coming to Guangzhou. However, it is not easy to travel far away these days. Mr. Zhang will definitely not go to this land in the south of the world on a whim."

These words had the flavor of a cross-examination. Zhang Dai knew that this person was here to inquire about his true identity. If the answer did not satisfy him, let alone go sightseeing in Lingao, he might not be able to save his life.

Although he is not a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death, he is unwilling to die in such an inexplicable way. He thought for a while and said: "The purpose of the student's coming here has been mentioned before, which is to go sightseeing in Lingao. Look at this legendary paradise. Apart from hundreds of craftsmanship, there is nothing else. The student is just a scholar, neither a court minister nor a veteran in the army. Seeking to see the master of Runshitang is just a request to be in a foreign land and have someone to take care of him. .”

"Mr. Zhang is a county magistrate and a literary leader in the south of the Yangtze River. You are welcome to come to us. In fact, when you arrive in Guangzhou, you will contact us directly and we can arrange for you to go to Hainan Island at that time." Liu San Trying to express sincerity and indifference at the same time, he also accused Zhang Dai of not believing in the Senate. Zhang Dai remained silent, and Liu San continued: "But this is just watching, and in-depth understanding is also watching. Mr. Zhang, come to me Da Song, what do you want to see?"

Just as Wu Mu expected, Zhang Dai simply let go now: Since there was no fear for his life, and the elder Liu Yuan opposite him was dealing with him cautiously, why should he be depressed?

"I have always known that the land and water in this place are unique, and the customs of Hainan have changed. I heard that the mainland of Australia and Song Dynasty is far away from the waves. I am afraid that I can't go there. I can only go to Hainan to see the customs and customs of Australia and Song Dynasty.

." At this point, Zhang Dai felt that if he only mentioned these things, it seemed that he would stay in Guangzhou, so he had to go into more detail. "When I was in Hangzhou, I saw many Australian things, all of which were exquisite, and even rarer ones.

I am very curious about this. What I am most interested in is the porcelain from the secret cellar in Australia..." Zhang Dai expressed in detail his interest in the "all-over glazing" technology of Australian and Song Dynasty craft ceramics and

I love the secret cellar bone china and made a request to see it.

This surprised Liu San: Wu Mu's psychological sketch and behavioral speculation of Zhang Dai suggested that although Zhang Dai is likely to have a high social and people's livelihood, this will not be the main thing. Lingao's combination of Chinese and Western styles is mixed with modern-style paintings.

Music, works, and various entertainment methods that have developed maturely in another time and space, and even the indescribable services of Ziminglou, may all be the purpose of Zhang Dai coming to Gao to "take a look." But Zhang Dai is now in front of Liu San

Liu San was told that he was interested in large-scale production and ceramic craftsmanship, which Liu San did not expect.

The bamboo cup that Zhang Dai mentioned was very familiar to Liu San, because it was the product made by the veterans of the porcelain factory when they took the naturalized craftsmen for the first time to figure out the process of high and low temperature processing. There were a few surprises in the cellar.

The products were kept by the elders for collection, and the best ones were given to a few familiar elders, while the rest were packaged as high-end gifts and sold out. As a master of medicine, Liu San naturally

He had many business contacts with the ceramic industry, so he also received a gift. Liu San definitely didn’t know the specific process, but he did understand the principle. So Liu San decided to start from here and chat with Zhang Dai - anyway, he

His main job is to chat with Zhang Daiduo, and the recording content will be handed over to professionals at Wumu for analysis.

"The principle of applying glaze all over the body is not difficult." Liu San replied with a smile.

"Oh? Please don't hesitate to teach me!" Zhang Dai read "Kun Shu" more and knew that Australians are not secretive about things like principles, but they often avoid talking about specific methods. At that time, a "Preliminary Theory of Optics" only talked about

The principle is not about the craftsmanship, but it made several people in the club so greedy that they finally had to ask someone to come to Guangli to buy the various mirrors mentioned in the book. However, there was no news yet, so I went south. I don’t know if they

I got what I wanted. But from what I have seen on the market during this period, they probably don’t exist in Guangli. If I really want to buy one, I’m afraid I have to go to Lingao.

"The so-called clay is essentially the end of stone." Liu San felt very tired as soon as he opened his mouth: When he told Zhang Dai about the chemical composition of clay, it must have been the original Tianzun's sermon.

"Put it in the cellar to burn it, that is, to burn it and re-condensate it into shape. The same is true for glaze. It is itself some colored stones. Of course, it will undergo some changes in a high-temperature environment, usually a reduction reaction - oh, this is yours

Don’t worry about it, it’s just that the physical properties have changed anyway – so the original color of the glaze and the color after firing are mostly different.”

Zhang Dai was very helpless after hearing this: He also knew that the physical properties must have changed, so the key was the reaction. However, Liu Yuanlao was unwilling to say more. This reluctance was not for fear of revealing the secret.

Reluctance, on the contrary, is an impatient reluctance, just like someone at a cultural meeting raised some questions that should be mastered in elementary school, and others are too lazy to answer. Zhang Dai is rarely classified as an ignorant person.

Naturally unhappy, he nodded slightly in agreement and continued to listen to Liu San's words.

"But different glazes have different melting temperatures." When Liu San said this, he remembered that Zhang Dai might not have the concept of temperature, so he explained: "If the freezing temperature of water is set as 0 degrees, the water will boil

The temperature is set at 100 degrees, so some glazes may take seven to eight hundred degrees to melt, and some may take thousands of degrees to melt."

"When the water is boiled, won't the temperature rise again?" Zhang Dai suddenly asked.

Liu San was stunned by the question - it was common sense to him that the water temperature reached the boiling point and began to vaporize, and the temperature would no longer rise, but how to prove it? It seems that he had never seen any book explaining it in simple terms. In ancient times, there were no thermometers, and temperature

There are only high and low points. It is difficult to quantify accurately, let alone explain it. But it cannot be explained in person. Liu San responded tactfully and immediately: "It is indeed no longer rising, but it takes time to explain the principle. We

He also talked about the glaze. Different substances have different melting points, which is not invisible in daily life. Mr. Zhang asked a coppersmith and a silversmith and he found out: if tin, copper, and iron are burned in the same crucible, tin must come first.

Chemical, then copper, and finally iron.”

Tin melts before copper. Zhang Dai knew that and nodded without interrupting.

"The same goes for glazes. I also know about the cup you mentioned. It has two colors inside and outside! There must be one high-temperature glaze and one low-temperature glaze. The high-temperature one is burned first, and then the low-temperature one. Naturally, there is no need to leave a glaze.

That’s it.” Liu San revealed the answer to the mystery in one breath.

After hearing this, Zhang Dai thought carefully: First, burn a color, and the unpainted area is the support point. Then, burn the "low-temperature glaze". The burned glaze surface is the support point. Sure enough, there is no need for mandrels or support nails! Just need

The cost of burning it twice was much higher. His discontinued project was only burned once, and the yield was so low. If it had been burned twice, it would have been stopped by the family. And Liu Yuan said this enough.

I understand, but it is still as useless as "Optics Preliminary": after starting the firing in the first cellar, how to control the temperature? What is the "melting point" of different glazes? If you ask carefully, let alone this Australian

Xinglin Miaoshou doesn't understand, or even if he does, he doesn't bother to explain it to himself, but he's afraid that he doesn't quite understand it either.

"The utensils are exquisite, the ones from Australia and Song Dynasty are indeed very good!" Zhang Dai complimented.

Finally waited for this sentence! Liu San was overjoyed and immediately asked deliberately: "Sir, do you think this is just a grotesque trick that is of no use to the people?" Finally, he could bring in the rhythm he had prepared!

Zhang Dai was stunned by this slightly sinful question, but if he thought about it carefully, apart from making luxuries, such skills seemed to be of no benefit to people's livelihood! Is there anything else to say? Zhang Dai actually became interested.

!

"I don't mean that, but... I'd like to hear the details!" (To be continued.)
