  Chapter 89

"This is sweet white porcelain!" At some point, Song Jiyun walked over with a smile on her face. She said softly, "It's a new kind of porcelain that my father had been researching when he was alive. After I took over the kiln factory, I improved some of the craftsmanship and put It fired out."

  As the saying goes, "Only talk about three points when you meet people."

  Not to mention these trade secrets.

  She has no intention of exposing herself to everyone.

   "Sweet white porcelain?!" Eunuch Wan whispered authentically, stood up and held the bowl in his hand facing the sun.

   There is a warm light in the plain bowl.

"Because its glaze color is as smooth as cotton white sugar, so I took the name Tianbai Porcelain." Song Jiyun explained to him, "It's a pity that time is too tight, otherwise I plan to try dark flowers or carved patterns, it must be very interesting. "

  Eunuch Wan nodded, but his eyes seemed to be glued to the small bowl, unable to tear it apart, and praised in a low voice, "It's so beautiful!"

  Song Jiyun pursed his lips and smiled.

  Song Daliang was shocked and came back to his senses.

   "How could this happen?!" He looked at the talking and laughing Eunuch Wan and Song Jiyun with a face like golden paper, flustered.

  He clearly arranged everything.

  How did it become like this?

  Song Daliang blinked, hoping that all this was his hallucination.

  But the jade-like porcelain in the rough broken pottery shards reminded him that all this is true.

  He couldn't help but push through the crowd around him and rushed over, but was stopped by Luo Zixing and others who were guarding the entrance of the kiln.

   "Get out of the way!" Song Daliang said with a livid face, entangled with the person who stopped him.

  Eunuch Wan and Song Jiyun came over after hearing the movement.

   Song Jiyun was expressionless.

  Eunuch Wan hesitated for a moment and said, "Let him in!"

  Luo Zixing and the others hesitated for a while, Song Daliang jumped over them and landed on the gray broken sagger.

   "Impossible! Impossible!" He murmured, flipping through the cups and dishes.

  The sound of touching porcelain is as thin as a dragon's chant, like a chime bell, very pleasant to the ear.

  Eunuch Wan was taken aback for a moment, and hurriedly said, "Be careful!"

  Song Daliang put all his attention on the newly fired porcelain, without turning his head.

  Eunuch Wan was slightly annoyed, and ordered the little flag he carried with him to pull Song Daliang: "What are you doing? Porcelain is fragile. If it is broken, who will it be?"

"Impossible!" Song Daliang shouted in a trance, "The second child is still studying how to improve the 'jade mud', how could new porcelain be fired? Song Jiyun, you, what the **** are you doing? These porcelains must be you Where did you get it from!"

  Song Jiyun sneered, and said: "Which family has fired new porcelain, why don't you go to Mr. Wan to receive credit, and let me show the limelight?"

  Song Daliang was still nagging: "You can't make sacrificial white porcelain. You don't have porcelain powder, so you can't make 'jade mud'."

  Song Jiyun's eyes flickered slightly, and said, "Where did you get uncle's porcelain powder?"

   "I'm from..." Song Daliang said, as if remembering something, his mouth immediately clenched into a slit, and the meaning of rejection was obvious.

  Song Jiyun snorted coldly, pointed to the pile of sweet white porcelain and said, "My lord, look, can this be sent to the palace as sacrificial white porcelain?"

  The new porcelain is shiny and shiny, like jade carvings.

  But when Eunuch Wan thought of the agreement with Song Daliang, his expression was a little unclear.

   For a while, there was silence inside and outside the kiln.

  Wan Daliang's hairs stood on end, and he came to his senses.

  He and Song Jiyun care about new and old porcelain.

  He is now going to get the order from the imperial kiln factory, the kiln factory of the Song family.

   "My lord!" He hastily reminded Eunuch Wan, "The ones that were sent to the palace before were sacrificial white porcelain instead of sweet white porcelain. I'm afraid it would be a little bad to offer two kinds of white porcelain on one altar table?"

  Eunuch Wan's eyes flashed a cold light when he heard this.

  Song Jiyun hurriedly said: "My lord, I also burned a few Gaozu Qing offering plates."

As she spoke, she picked out a few offering trays from the kiln and handed them to Eunuch Wan: "It's almost the Mid-Autumn Festival, so it's just a good time to give them away. In autumn and winter, offering citron, bergamot, etc. would be the best." gone."

  If you want to promote new porcelain, you have to get the nod from the eunuchs at the Imperial Construction Supervision Office, and the Qingliu in the court like it.

  Eunuch Wan pondered, but did not take over.

Song Jiyun didn't take it seriously, but still smiled, and said: "This sweet white porcelain is good for sacrificial porcelain, but it would be even better if it is used as the background color of blue and white and underglaze colors. The more it is used, the less it is used, the color of asphalt and back blue is more elegant, and the base color of the original green glaze is easy to scatter."

  Eunuch Wan and Song Daliang both frowned upon hearing this.

  If, as she said, the sweet white porcelain has such a wide range of uses, the value of this new porcelain is far more than just used as sacrificial porcelain.

  Eunuch Wan couldn't help but took the confession tray and calculated it carefully.

  Song Daliang didn't think so much as Wan Gonggong thought. He just wanted to keep the porcelain he fired as sacrificial porcelain in the imperial kiln factory.

He said in a panic: "Master Wan, blue and white, underglaze color, that's just what I said. If it's really possible, let her burn a kiln for you alone in a few days. You can see it with your own eyes before it's too late. .”

  Eunuch Wan thought of another thing from Song Jiyun's words.

  He is a **** after all, and the palace is where he belongs. But the longer he left the capital, the more unfamiliar he became with the twenty-four yamen. He wanted to go back to the capital, but he couldn't do it with money alone.

   Now that Songjia Kiln Factory has fired new porcelain, as the pottery supervisor, this is also his credit.

  With this credit, he has an upright reason for wanting to transfer back to the capital.

  He looked at the anxious Song Daliang, then at the calm Song Jiyun, and gave his followers a look.

  The entourage immediately went forward to pick up the offerings from those high-end students.

Song Jiyun secretly breathed a sigh of relief, the corners of his mouth turned up slightly, and his voice was a little more brisk than before: "Sir, I think what my uncle said is also reasonable. When you are free, I will burn you some blue and white pieces And the underglaze color, it happened to be sent to Beijing together with this batch of sweet white porcelain, and it can still be in time for the Mid-Autumn Festival."

"My lord!" Before Eunuch Wan could say anything, Song Daliang interrupted Song Jiyun hastily, "I don't know if the blue and white underglaze can be fired, but I can't delay this sacrificial white porcelain. Otherwise, I I will also burn some blue and white or underglaze colors for you, and it will not be too late for you to see which one is better before making a decision."

   But Eunuch Wan made up his mind to use the firing of new porcelain as a stepping stone to return to the capital.

  He didn't even look at Song Daliang again, and told the people around him: "Call the storeroom to pick up the goods."

  Luo Zixing and the others were overjoyed but dared not laugh out loud.

   Song Daliang was dumbfounded.

   "No!" He wanted to go to Eunuch Lawan.

  The people around Eunuch Wan immediately stopped him.

Song Jiyun heard the sound and knew Ya, and said with a smile: "You see, what do you want? You ask the people around you to make a list, and I will ask Wang Dahai to go and get it. I also got a painting of flowers and birds by Ma Shirong. I don't know if it is true or not. , ask him to take it there and ask you to help Zhang Zhangyan."

  Eunuch Wan was very satisfied with her knowledge and interest, and said "Yes".

  Song Jiyun struck while the iron was hot, and said with a smile: "Do you see the bet between me and my uncle?"

   "There is no one in Jingdezhen who dares not to give me face!" Eunuch Wan was anxious to plan the new porcelain, so he responded impatiently, waved his hand, and left with the people around him.

  Song Daliang became impatient, panicked and at a loss.

   "My lord! My lord!" He ran after Wan Gonggong's sedan chair in a panic.
