Followed by.

Qian Duoduo pondered and said, "Master, I have already found the old porcelain-burning craftsman you asked me to find, and I also bought two kilns by the way."

Qin Mu pinched Tang'er's small face and nodded, "Come and see with me later."

"Okay." Qian Duoduo hurriedly responded, and then asked in confusion: "Master, don't we want to compete with the people for profit!? We don't do porcelain business either, is that what we want?"

Today, Qian Duoduo has already learned about the news that the business tax has been increased by [-]%.

He knew that this was what Qin Mu meant, so he asked the accountant to contact the household department so that the tax burden could be repaid at any time.

Mangya Commercial Bank is the largest commercial bank in the world, and enjoys many policies on weekdays.

At this time, even if Qin Mu doesn't confess, Qian Duoduo will definitely cooperate.

For him, money is already a number, what he wants to do now is to do this thing well and run Mangya Trading Company well.

Qin Mu explained: "I want to burn porcelain, but it's not for selling. Do you know the official wine shop!?"

Hearing this, Qian Duoduo nodded, "I know about the official brewery, especially the apricot flower brew. Although it hasn't started selling yet, it has already been rumored. Dai Shangshu once negotiated with me to make the apricot flower brew in Advertisement in newspapers."

"Isn't this wine a few percent of the profit of our Mangya Trading Company? I promised Dai Shangshu."

Qin Mu nodded slightly.

He didn't expect that Li Er's thinking was getting more and more advanced, and he even explained to Dai Zhou about advertising.

Now the sales of Zuixian Niang have reached the bottleneck period.

Mangya Trading Company can make up for the brand difference through apricot flower brewing.

Moreover, Mangya Trading Company only needs to sell for profit without any investment, which is very comfortable.

"Okay." Qin Mu responded, and responded: "Isn't Xinghua Niang still in the promotional stage? I made a bet with His Majesty to see who can design the best bottle. If anyone loses, I need to pay [-]% of the profit. "

[-]% profit! ?

This bet really made Qian Duoduo a little unbelievable.

That is to say, Qin Mu and Li Er have such courage. Although it is only [-]% profit, it is immeasurable.

Followed by.

Qian Duoduo pondered and said, "Master, you want to use porcelain bottles as wine bottles!? Now many breweries are looking for us to customize glass wine bottles. This is the first time I've heard of using porcelain bottles as wine bottles."

Qian Duoduo thought about it, but really couldn't figure out Qin Mu's intention.

Qin Mu only smiled lightly and said, "I just want to do the opposite, and I blindly guessed that with His Majesty's character, he would definitely use a glass bottle."

"Why?" Qian Duoduo looked at Qin Mu with doubts in his eyes.

Qin Mufeng said calmly: "Using the things I developed to defeat me will give His Majesty a greater sense of accomplishment."

Hearing this, Qian Duoduo nodded slightly to express his agreement.

According to what Qin Mu said, it really looks like Li Er's style.

After lunch in the Qin Mansion.

Qin Mu and Qian Duoduo went to a kiln factory not far from Mangya Industrial Zone in the western suburbs of Chang'an City, which he bought at a high price yesterday.

Inside the kiln.

Four or five old craftsmen who fired porcelain had been waiting for a long time.

They were all invited from the Jiangnan area with a lot of money and a lot of money.

Originally, these old craftsmen were unwilling to come to Chang'an, but the title of Prince Consort is still useful.

At that time, several people heard that the son-in-law was recruiting people to make a special batch of porcelain, and they came to Chang'an City without even thinking about it.

Now in the Tang Dynasty, is there anyone who has not received the favor of the son-in-law?

These old craftsmen have all experienced wars and chaos, and they all know that this peaceful and prosperous age is hard-won, and how much the son-in-law has paid for this peaceful and prosperous age is obvious to all Tang people.

So they definitely have no reason to reject the request of the son-in-law.

Besides, the son-in-law has always been extravagant, in terms of remuneration and treatment, he is definitely the conscience of the industry.

kiln factory.

See Qin Mu coming.

Several old craftsmen hurried up to greet them, saluted and said in unison: "Caomin, I have seen the son-in-law."

Qin Mu smiled lightly and waved his hands, "Masters, you don't have to be so polite. I know you all came from afar in the south of the Yangtze River. It's really hard work for you to make this trip for me at such an advanced age."

heard.

Everyone was stunned, being famous is not as good as meeting, the son-in-law is indeed as gentle and gentle as the rumors say, humble and friendly.

"My son-in-law is serious. It is my good fortune to be able to work under your command."

"That's right, the son-in-law is a benefactor to the people of Tang Dynasty, and it is a great blessing for us to solve the worries and problems of the son-in-law."

"My son-in-law, if you need anything, just tell us old fellows to do it, our old bones are willing to serve your son-in-law."

"Your Majesty, please order."

……

Several old craftsmen looked at Qin Mu, full of energy.

"Okay." Qin Mu glanced at the few people and nodded slightly, "In this case, I won't be polite to the masters anymore, please follow me into the room to talk about it."

Afterwards, under the leadership of Qin Mu, everyone went to the side hall.

Entering the hall, Qin Mu took out a few blueprints from his pocket.

Several old craftsmen hurriedly gathered around.

The bottle on the blueprint was drawn by Qin Mu according to the color and shape he imagined.

In the early Tang Dynasty, the technology of porcelain was already very mature, and porcelain was best fired in the Jiangnan area.

The kilns used in the palace are all official kilns, specially for the royal family. Whether it is firing, glazing, or painting, they are all first-class craftsmanship.

However, the drawings drawn by Qin Mu shocked everyone, no matter the shape or color of the bottle, they had never seen it before.

However, what Qin Mu painted was not a complex color, it was blue and white porcelain.

But blue and white porcelain did not appear in the early Tang Dynasty.

Therefore, several old craftsmen were shocked when they saw the colors Qin Mu matched.

Chapter 33: Blue and White Porcelain (3/3)

hall.

Several old craftsmen gathered around the table, staring at the blue and white porcelain drawings.

"My lord, you drew this!?"

"It's the first time I've seen the color glaze with blue and white. This color combination is really unique."

"My son-in-law, don't you know how to make porcelain!?"

"This color matching is not simple..."

......

Several old craftsmen spoke, raised their heads and looked at Qin Mu, their eyes full of doubts.

They understand Qin Mu's literary and martial arts strategy, skillful craftsman, uncanny workmanship.

But they really don't know that the son-in-law has actually done some research on porcelain firing.

Now in the early Tang Dynasty, although the technology of porcelain firing is mature, if there is no solid basic skills and experience, it is really impossible to fire exquisite porcelain.

Moreover, the firing of porcelain is very particular, and the weather is different, which has a great influence on the firing of porcelain. It is impossible to get started without a few years of hard work.

So for Qin Mu's status and status, and his research on porcelain, all the old craftsmen were very curious.

"Hehe..." Qin Mu smiled, "I really don't know anything about porcelain firing, I just drew my favorite colors, patterns and bottle shapes on a whim."

"I think this kind of porcelain is called white ground blue-and-white porcelain, blue-and-white porcelain for short. It belongs to underglaze colored porcelain. Cobalt ore is used as raw material for firing blue-and-white porcelain. Decorations are drawn on the ceramic body, and then a layer of transparent glaze is covered. The reduction flame is fired once."

"Cobalt raw material has strong color strength, bright color, high firing rate and stable color, so it is excellent for firing blue and white porcelain."

Listen to Qin Mu's explanation.

All the old craftsmen were stunned! ! !

you......

How dare you say you don't understand! ?

This is called do not understand! ?

Seeing everyone's amazed expressions.

Qin Mu smiled and said: "You masters, don't be surprised. I really don't understand. I just know this fur. I've already prepared all the things. You just need to experiment with firing."

The words fall.

Several old craftsmen looked at each other, then smiled awkwardly.

Just scratch the surface?

They will never believe this.

But they didn't intend to compete with the son-in-law. After all, the son-in-law was famous for his creativity in the Tang Dynasty, maybe he was talented.

Subsequently.

Several old craftsmen went out of the hall and took the blueprints to study in front of the kiln. They had to earnestly complete the tasks assigned by the son-in-law.

After the old craftsman left.

Qian Duoduo looked at Qin Mu and asked doubtfully, "Master, this...is really designed by you!?"

Qin Mu held the teacup, nodded slightly, and said with a smile, "What? Is there a problem?"

Qian Duoduo hurriedly waved his hand, no problem, "You don't know, I have some research on porcelain, and I like it very much, but our Mangya Trading Company has not set foot in the porcelain industry in line with the principle of not competing with the people for profit."

"Nowadays, our Datang porcelain has long been exported to western countries. The sales volume is huge and the profit is extremely high. Several commercial firms have made a fortune because of porcelain. The development of porcelain and glass can be said to go hand in hand. The porcelain produced by private kilns is no less Official kilns are especially popular among Western aristocrats."

"Although I have a lot of research on porcelain, if your blue and white porcelain is sold, the benefits must be very high."

"This color gives me the feeling that it is fresh and natural, plain white jade, unpretentious, natural to carve, and hibiscus out of clear water, completely natural."

Qian Duoduo was talking, thinking about the sketch just now, with endless aftertaste.

If this blue and white porcelain is fired, it will definitely occupy a place in the field of Tang porcelain.

Besides, Mangya Trading Company is not short of money.

Money, people, materials, etc. can be invested regardless of cost.

So Qian Duoduo is confident that when this blue and white porcelain is fired, even the official kilns will be eclipsed and stand aside.

Qian Duoduo is a businessman, so he naturally wants to turn this thing into white money.

Listen to his boast.

Qin Mu smiled and said, "What? Do you have an idea about this blue and white porcelain?"

"Hehe..." Qian Duoduo smiled irrefutably, "I just think about it, our Mangya Trading Company does not compete with the people for profit, I will never break the rules, and our Mangya Trading Company will not This category is poor."

Although he wanted it very much, Qian Duoduo still denied it.

There is no way, the rules are the rules, and the reason why Mangya Trading Company has the status it is today is because of the rules.

If they really start to compete with the people for profit, it will be a devastating sweep for the entire Datang business.

Qin Mu pondered: "I understand your thoughts, but as the No. [-] commercial firm of Datang, we must not only pay attention to profits, but also pay attention to the business development trend and balance of the entire Datang."

"If this balance is broken, do you know how many small workshops, small businesses, and small merchants will go bankrupt in Datang!? Maybe the Mangya business will rise, but have you ever thought about how many people's jobs we will destroy?"

"We must play a balancing role in the entire Datang commercial chain, rather than let commercial development go astray and become deformed gradually."

"Development requires balance and stability..."

Listen to Qin Mu's words.

Qian Duoduo fell into deep thought.
