1979 The Life of Idle Fish

Chapter 330 Creating Artwork

"We still use traditional brewing methods, and it's very difficult to save a lot of grain... Director Hou called from the south yesterday and said that the brewing equipment is ready.

It is said that it can improve the wine production time and wine volume while ensuring the quality. "

Qi Yongjun briefly explained to Luo Tao the work and progress they had done on this matter these days.

"Well, as long as you can save food and increase your drinking capacity, don't be afraid to spend money and buy whatever you want."

This is the only thing Luo Tao dares to say. Although he doesn't know how to make wine, who made him rich.

Rather than giving random orders, reasonable suggestions should be given strong support.

Luo Tao and Zhu Lin chatted with a few workers for a while before leaving the brewery.

As soon as the cool breeze blew, my head suddenly became clearer.This brewing is really not something that ordinary people can resist.

"Mr. Luo, Mr. Zhu, please try the bell tower wine we brewed this time. How is it different from last time?"

He smiled and poured a small glass for the three of them. From the tone of his voice, he knew that the wine must have improved again, and he also vaguely wanted to ask for credit.

"it is good."

Luo Tao took it and dipped some on the tip of his tongue. He tasted it carefully and found that it was a little different. Then he took a small sip.

"Huh? It seems that the spiciness is gone, and the wine is now soft and sweet, which is good."

Luo Tao said with a deep smile that it was good, and did not ask how they brewed it.The important thing about Luo Tao is that he has his own understanding and does not over-understand things that he does not understand.

Sometimes I don’t understand what I’ve said, isn’t it self-inflicted?It is also impossible for him to systematically learn this knowledge in order to control the winery.

Apart from Zhang San, there are still Li Si and Wang Er.In this era that he knew very well, Luo Tao was not afraid of anyone leaving him.

Besides, the winery is not his goal, his future is the stars and the sea.

In addition, it is impossible for the current private wine industry to become large, as long as it can meet the internal consumption of Xichang Building.

At noon, several people had another farm meal at Qi's house. A large pot of fried pork with green peppers was a special meal. Zhu Lin ate two bowls of rice while being reserved.

In the afternoon, I took Qi Yongjun to Mentougou to check out Xichang's special wine vessels and restaurant tableware.

After Qi Yongjun's introduction, Luo Tao got to know them.

They are two brothers, the eldest, Chen Jianshe, and the second, Chen Jianjun.

Their operation is quite large, with more than a dozen kilns in total.In the past, it was used to make handicraft porcelain and civilian bowls and basins, but now it is the imperial ceramics factory in Xichang.

"Master Chen, why do you still use wood to burn the stove? This is too wasteful!"

Luo Tao asked curiously when he saw a lot of firewood in the courtyard.

"This..." He hesitated and looked at Qi Yongjun, apparently having something to hide.

"What do you think I'm doing? Mr. Luo is asking you, what do you want to say?"

Master Chen gritted his teeth and said, "Boss, coal is more expensive than wood, so..."

"So you just cut down the firewood on this mountain to burn." Luo Tao was a little angry about this.

When I came here, I looked at the mountains on the Mentougou side. The towering trees and low shrubs were also sparse and not as dense as the vegetation on the west mountain.

Think about the environment of the capital in later generations. The predecessors felled trees and future generations suffered.

When there is no natural electricity available, it is not advisable to burn as much coal as possible and to cut down trees in the mountains.

They all looked at each other in blank dismay, not daring to speak much, for fear of offending the benefactor.

"How much can you use if you burn coal for a month?"

They can't be blamed too much for this matter. At present, the awareness of environmental protection in China is still very weak from top to bottom.

In addition, the cost of burning coal is expensive, so they naturally save it if they can. However, they do not do this to save Luo Tao this money.Master Chen thought for a while and said, "Boss, we really haven't thought about this carefully."

"Huh?" Luo Tao glanced at them, thinking that he didn't even know this account, and he didn't know what he was doing all day long.

"I understand. From now on, I will let others handle the coal matter, and you can just be responsible for burning the porcelain."

"Thank you, boss. We brothers will make porcelain well and strive for..."

"Okay, let's talk about something practical! Have you finished the photos I gave you last time?"

They fired a batch of porcelain plates for Xichang Tower. Luo Tao was particularly surprised after seeing them because the porcelain plates were very exquisite and beautiful.

The technology is very good, but it cannot compare with the porcelain collected by Luo Tao, but it can still be sold as art.

So Luo Tao took several pictures of blue and white porcelain and asked them to copy the pictures.

"Oh." He was very happy when he heard that Luo Tao wanted to see the porcelain they made.

"Boss, please come to the house. We have fired more than 100 pieces in total and produced 42 defective pieces of porcelain. However, today I should be able to produce perfect porcelain."

Master Chen is very excited to introduce, from scratch, he also learned a lot from it, although there is no real finished product, but it is close to success.

"it is good."

When I entered the house, I saw the defective porcelain on the floor.

Luo Tao ignored them and squatted down to pick up a porcelain vase with a height of more than 20 centimeters and a big belly to look at.

"Did you ask someone else to make these floral decorations?"

This is not to say that their brothers are not capable of doing it, but they have never learned it. Mentougou has always been famous for its burning boards.

They also admitted openly, "Yes, we are from the same village. We used to make porcelain at home, but later we did something else because of some things."

"Well, yes, if the bottle mouth is not smiling, it can be on the stage." Luo Tao also encouraged them.

They were still very happy when they heard Luo Tao's affirmation. After all, they now depend on Luo Tao as their boss. If their boss is happy, they will make money.

I have never asked what the porcelain is used for, I don’t dare to ask and I can’t ask.

Luo Tao checked them all one by one and put forward some opinions of his own.

"Is there something wrong with the damper? The temperature at the mouth of the guide bottle is unstable."

They didn't expect Luo Tao to ask such a professional question. Although they were surprised, they still answered the boss's questions well now.

"Boss, you are really an expert...there are reasons for this, as well as moisture and other issues. We are accumulating experience while firing. Today's furnace has a high chance of success."

The one who kept talking was the boss Chen Jianshe, who was eloquent and flattering. He also summed up some lessons learned from the failure.

I am particularly confident in the porcelain fired in this furnace today.

"Really? About what time can the furnace be turned on?" Luo Tao really wanted to witness this moment.

"We estimate it won't be until midnight."

Hearing this time period, it was impossible for Luo Tao to wait here, after all, he was not the only one coming.

"Well, it seems I'm not lucky enough to see it. ...If it's successfully fired, you can bring it to the city tomorrow. I want to see it."

Luo Tao expressed his regret, but he did not forget to tell them to tell him immediately after they succeeded.

"Don't worry..." They also said a lot of assurances and compliments.
