The happy life of a prodigal

Fang Xiu raised his eyes, looked at him, thought for a while, and ordered: "From today on, arrange for people to follow Charlie to learn how to make colored glaze.

At least ten people must learn how to make colored glaze. "

As long as one person can learn it, the difference between ten people and one person is actually not too big.

But Fang Xiu has always been cautious in doing things, especially in this situation where there is no second chance.

Bai Xiaochun has been by Fang Xiu's side for many years, so he naturally understands this truth, nodded respectfully, and replied: "I understand, young master!"

Fang Xiu waved his hand and said, "Go."

"Yes, Master!"

Fang Xiu watched Bai Xiaochun leave, and watched Charlie return to work in front of the furnace, and couldn't help feeling a little emotional.

If I hadn't been born in an honorable family, I'm afraid there is a great possibility that I will be no different from this Charlie.

When reading novels in the previous life, those protagonists could always rely on the various science and engineering knowledge in the previous life to flourish in ancient times.

Only he himself understands that in such a place, in such an era, to excel, one needs more than just knowledge...

Otherwise, I'm afraid I can only become the second Charlie.

Chapter 6 Eleven Accidents

Fang Xiu came to this world and experienced many things before he gradually understood this truth.

However, it is clear that some people, or in other words, most people in this world do not have such experiences, and naturally they do not understand such truths.

For example... Ding Tong, a member of the Rites Department.

In the west of the city, somewhere in a mansion.

The staff of Baolefang were careful all the way, not daring to make the slightest mistake, and finally delivered the six glazed treasures to the door of the residence of Wailang Dingtong, a member of the ritual department.

To their surprise, the person who opened the door for them was not a servant, but Wai Lang Ding Tong himself, a member of the Ministry of Rites!

"Master Ding, let the servants do this trivial matter, and you have to do it yourself..."

The servant at Baole Fang looked at Ding Tong and complimented him.

Ding Tong looked at the six glazed treasures expressionlessly, and didn't care about them at all.

The boy was not embarrassed when he saw this.

After all, they have encountered too many similar things over the years.

Ding Tong is pretty good.

In the past, when there was no Xin'anbo to support them, in front of these nobles, these servants were like pigs and dogs, and they could beat and scold anyone at will.

It is extremely rare to get such treatment nowadays.

"Master Ding, are these six glazed treasures placed in front of your mansion, or delivered to your mansion?"

Although he received a cold reception, the boy still did his duty and asked a question with a smile on his face.

Ding Tong glanced at him and said expressionlessly: "Just put it here."

"Okay, guys, let's unload Lord Ding!"

The boy turned his head and greeted, and the boys started to act separately.

Someone spread a layer of protective cotton wool on the ground, and then the rest of the people carefully took out five thousand five hundred taels of colored glaze treasures from the box, and gently placed them on the cotton wool.

After finishing all this, the boy turned his head, looked at Ding Tong, and said respectfully: "Master Ding, do you want to inspect the goods?"

Ding Tong didn't reply, but glanced at the young man beside him.

The young man knew from his appearance that it must be his son, the appearance was almost carved out of the same mold.

Seeing Ding Tong's eyes, the young man nodded, stepped forward, squatted down, picked up the six glazed treasures on the cotton wool one by one, and then carefully observed them one by one.

After reading it, he put it down gently again, looked back at Ding Tong, and said, "Father, it's all real!"

After hearing this, Ding Tong nodded, walked out of the mansion, walked up to the glazed treasures, and told his son, "Pick up that one..."

Hearing this, the young man gently picked up the most precious glazed treasure, hugged it in his arms, and asked: "Father, the remaining few pieces, shall I let the servants move to the mansion?"

"Do not......"

Ding Tong shook his head, took a step forward, squatted down, and hugged the remaining five glazed treasures in his arms.

Everyone, including his son, was stunned when they saw this scene.

All these things together are worth two or three thousand taels of silver. Why does Mr. Ding seem to be holding a porcelain bowl and doesn't care at all?

Immediately afterwards, a scene that shocked them even more appeared.

Na Ding Tong slowly raised the glazed treasure in his hand, and then...

It hit the ground heavily!

boom----

Then, a crisp sound was heard.

The five glazed treasures, without exception, were smashed into pieces.

"This this......"

All the people present, whether it was the boy from Baole Fang, Ding Tong's son, or even the servants of Ding's mansion, saw this scene, they all held their breath in fright, and dared not say a word.

Especially the boys in Baolefang.

They know the price of these glazed treasures.

A full 3000 taels of silver!

How many years would it take for them to earn so much money without eating or drinking! ?

Not to mention these boys, even Ding Tong's son is stupid.

3000 taels of silver is for the Ding Mansion, and that is by no means a small sum!

You know, before my father decided to be a dealer in antique calligraphy and paintings, their family's cash, bank notes, and those antique calligraphy and paintings, when added together, were only 5000 taels at the top.

That is to say, after becoming a dealer in antique calligraphy and painting, the family became a little richer than before.

But even so, 3000 taels of silver is by no means a small sum!

"This this......"

The leading boy was terribly frightened, looked at Ding Tong, and hurriedly said: "Ding, Mr. Ding, I have entrusted these glazed treasures to you.

You dropped these treasures yourself, the little ones haven't even touched them! "

At this time, the thing to do is undoubtedly to put aside their own relationship.

The fact is indeed the case. They took good care of them along the way, for fear of bumping into each other. After delivering the goods, they even hid far away, just for fear of similar things happening.

Although Baolefang may not allow them to compensate all the losses, one thing is certain, this lucrative job will definitely not be with me in the future.

Everybody's nervous, everybody's worried, everybody's... scared.

There is only one person, but his face is indifferent, with a calm and calm appearance.

There is no doubt that this person is Ding Tong.

"I know, don't care about your business."

Ding Tong glanced at the debris all over the floor, then at the boy, and said slowly, "I smashed these glazed treasures myself."

When the servants heard this, they all heaved a sigh of relief, with grateful expressions on their faces.

When the young man next to him and the servants of Ding's mansion heard this, they became anxious.

"father!"

The young man couldn't help calling out.

Ding Tong stretched out a hand slowly, telling him not to say more.

Then, looking at the boys, he said, "I want to ask you to do something for me, can you?"

When the servants heard this, their joyful mood instantly cooled by more than half.

This was especially true for the leading servant. He raised his eyes, looked at Ding Tong, and said cautiously: "Master Ding, as long as it is within our capabilities, we will do it..."

Speaking of this, after thinking about it, he added, "Of course, if we sell Baolefang, I'm afraid it will be difficult for the younger ones."

Ding Tong shook his head and said, "It has nothing to do with Baolefang, and it has nothing to do with you.

It's just a very simple thing, that is, tell your shopkeeper what you saw today, and the people you know. "

"This......"

Several servants showed hesitant expressions and looked at each other, none of them understood what Ding Tong meant.

Ding Tong looked at them and continued: "It's very simple, you just need to say that I, Ding Tong, smashed five of the six glazed treasures, leaving only fragments.

None of them are perfect except the most precious one.

For you, this matter is not too difficult, right? "

Chapter 6 Twelve

The young servants looked at each other again, nodded their heads, and said: "Master Ding, you guys know about it, and you must try your best to do it."

Ding Tong nodded, waved his hand and said, "Now that you know, let's go back."

"Master Nading, the younger ones will leave first..."

The emotions of the boys were like a roller coaster ride, reaching a peak for a while, and falling to the bottom for a while, with twists and turns, but fortunately there was no major problem in the end.

However, the mood of the people in the Ding Mansion has always been at the bottom, and they have never risen.

Those servants are not qualified to discuss.

But the young man walked up to Ding Tong and said anxiously, "Father, these glazes are worth at least 3000 taels of silver. Why did you smash them?"

Hearing this, Ding Tong glanced back at him, stroked his beard, with an inscrutable expression on his face, and said slowly: "There are only seven colored glazes in the entire capital.

Now there are only two pieces left, one is a defective product and the other is a treasure. How much do you think this one and only treasure is worth? "

"This......"

When the young man heard his father's words, he was slightly taken aback, and then his face revealed a thoughtful expression.

After a while, he suddenly realized: "Father, my child understands what you mean.

Rare things are the most valuable of this glass, but now there are only two pieces left, and one is a defective product. The value of the remaining one will naturally rise with the tide.

It used to be worth 2000 taels at most, but now it is more than 5000 taels! "

Hearing this, Ding Tong showed a gratified expression on his face, looked at his son, and taught: "You are still young, there are many things, you can't just look at the surface.

You can't just care about the momentary gains and losses, otherwise, you can only stand still and stagnate..."

"The child obeys the teaching of the father."

With an expression of admiration on the young man's face, he said respectfully.

After the two of them finished speaking, they carried the only remaining glazed treasure and went back to the residence.

The boy in Baole Fang was still in a daze.

They are just ordinary servants who only know that the silver in their hands is real money.

How can he understand the thoughts of a shrewd Erdao businessman? After returning to Baolefang, he will naturally report the truth.

After Wang Baole heard this, he frowned, looked at the boy, and asked, "What you saw with your own eyes, was he smashing it himself, instead of falling down without holding onto it?"

"The little one can see clearly, there will be no mistakes!"

The boy was naturally very determined.

Speaking of this, he seemed to have thought of something, and added: "By the way, shopkeeper, Na Dingtong even asked us to spread the news, saying that the more people who know about it, the better.

And there is no sense of accountability. "

Hearing this, Wang Baole's brows slowly relaxed, a faint smile appeared on his face, and he said: "I see, so he thought so.

You really deserve to be a member of the Ministry of Rites, you are simply an old fox..."
