My system is not decent

In this way, Chen Xingchen and Chen Qinghu cooperated tacitly, and at a faster speed, quickly made a purple clay pot into shape again.

"Is it engraved this time?"

Seeing that the purple clay pot was about to be completed, Chen Qinghu still did not add any decorations, Chen Xingchen suggested.

"I don't know how to carve flowers, I haven't learned yet!" Chen Qinghu said a little embarrassedly.

"Hush!" Chen Xingchen exhaled, it's only right, otherwise these people from the Chen family would be too monstrous.

After only seven or eight months of learning, he can actually make purple clay teapots proficiently?

This made them who have studied for five or six years, how can they see Jiang Dong's elders?

"It doesn't matter, I will. You can make the pot fast enough, and the other processes can be handed over to me."

"Yes, it will be faster this way." Others also breathed a sigh of relief, and these are all students of the Academy of Fine Arts.

After graduating from senior year, if you don’t want to lose your job, you have to work hard to find a job. There are not many job opportunities for those who can learn pottery.

Therefore, as soon as Professor Tao publicized it in the school, many graduates defected to Chen Wenzhe.

These students were interviewed by Li Jinli, and it was the first time for Chen Wenzhe to meet them.

Although I can't name them, they look familiar. After all, they are from the same school. Even if they don't know each other, they always look very familiar.

Gathering such a group of professionals can save Chen Wenzhe a lot of time.

Not to mention other things, let’s just talk about making pots. The process of making several purple sand pots is usually completed by more than two people, and the speed will be faster.

For example, firing is generally not done by the producers. It can be seen from this that the division of labor in society is very significant, which is also an important reason for the development of purple clay.

It is all hand-molded. Generally, the wet purple sand clay sheet is beaten into a certain thickness and uniform clay sheet, and the various parts of the pot are made separately, and then glued together to form the prototype of a pot.

Then it is trimmed and perfected before it can be considered as an embryo.

Because there are two types of purple sand teapots: round and square, the round is formed by "slapping the body", and the square is "inlaid with the body".

The "gypsum model molding method" belongs to semi-manual pot making. It uses a model made of plaster to give the purple sand pot the correct shape, which can greatly improve the efficiency of making pots.

In Chen Wenzhe's place, it is natural not to use semi-manual production, so that the porcelain that can be fired every day will be relatively small.

But relatively, the price of the porcelain he made in this way is higher.

Of course, if you want to sell at a high price, you need a suitable channel, and Yi Nian Tang is a suitable channel opened by Chen Wenzhe.

In order not to ruin his own signboard, Chen Wenzhe was the final check.

However, with Chen Xingchen's help, Chen Wenzhe could save a lot of time in the future.

For example, kiln firing, Chen Xingchen, even if he can't reach the master level of kiln firing, he can always reach the professional level.

If Chen Wenzhe taught him some tricks, even if he reached the master level, it shouldn't be too difficult.

This is the result of four or five years of firing, and it is the result of Professor Tao's careful teaching.

It has to be said that Chen Xingchen has really experienced it.

I don't know what he was thinking, but he actually left Professor Tao's studio and came to Chen Wenzhe's private workshop.

According to Chen Wenzhe and Li Jinli's plan, the first thing to do when recruiting people is skill assessment.

These students, as long as they don't spend all their time playing games during school, they can generally reach the proficiency level, that is, the second or third level of technicians.

Now Chen Xingchen was looking at them, what level they were.

Making teapots requires many steps, but they are all very simple.

When making mud sticks, the humidity of the mud should be suitable so that the finished mud sticks can be punched into the body.

The mud strips should be made into rectangles according to the size requirements. The thickness of the mud strips should be uniform, about 3 mm. The large pots should be thickened appropriately, and the small pots should be thinned appropriately.

Make the mud sheet, the thickness of the mud sheet is uniform, round and upright.

Specific thickness requirements: Negative film, thickness 3 mm, full film, thickness 2.8 mm, false bottom, thickness 2 mm.

For large ones, the thickness is according to the specific size requirements, the mouth line, the thickness is 3mm, and the girdle, the thickness is 6mm;

For the body drum, the circumference must be set at the center of the turntable, the mud strip must be round and straight around the circumference, and the edge of the mud strip must be kept moist.

When playing the body cylinder, the rotation speed of the turntable should be uniform, and the beat force should be consistent;

To drive the body, use wooden slaps to drive, the steps should be thin and dense, and the force should be even, the purpose is to drive the body to be round and straight, and the shape meets the requirements.

For the grate body, use bamboo grate, the force should be even and steady, the purpose is to make the curve of the body grate smooth;

On the false bottom, the false bottom should not be thick, strictly follow the requirements, the diameter is 1~2 mm smaller than the actual bottom;

Next, put on the big one and apply finger mud.

It literally means, with your fingers, apply a thin layer of mud.

Next is the upper mouth line and the clear mouth line.

After that, rub the handle, trim the handle, open the mouth, trim the mouth, install the mouth handle, and cut the mouth handle.

After the mouth and the handle are finished, it is the lid.

To make the cover, the button, the button, the billet, the opening, and the billet, one by one, the operation is carried out by changing people.

At this time, it is clear at a glance who is doing well and whether it is good or not.

These are the simplest production processes. There is no requirement for engraving or glazing, let alone using embryos. Compared with making porcelain, these tasks are basic skills.

What Chen Wenzhe asked for was skilled workers. As long as these basic skills are solid, others can be practiced slowly.

After seeing the cooperation once, Chen Wenzhe basically understood the basic skills of his classmates.

Of course, Chen Xingchen was the one who knew the most, because he had spent more time with these students and was more familiar with them.

Two hours later, Chen Wenzhe and Li Jinli had been standing in a corner, but those students who were concentrating on their work did not notice them.

This made Chen Wenzhe very satisfied. Both Professor Tao and Chen Xingchen were very reliable.

Otherwise, the classmates he recruited would not be so down-to-earth and willing to work, at least they are not sneaky people.

"Okay, let's stop for a while. We made more than a dozen teapots just now, and we spent two hours, sixteen people, two hours, and made sixteen teapots, all of which are the simplest purple sand pots with plain surfaces and no grains. , the speed is not fast, but it is also up to standard."

"Ha..." Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when Chen Xingchen said that the standard had been met.

Some students have already laughed, and they feel that this time the work is stable.

And Chen Wenzhe, who was not far away, also laughed.

"Huh? Our boss is here, welcome everyone, welcome Master Chen Wenzhe with applause!"

"Crack!" Seeing Chen Wenzhe, all the students clapped their hands.

For Chen Wenzhe, they had to be convinced.

He became a monk halfway, no, he changed his major halfway, but in less than a year, he has achieved such a great reputation, this is not luck.
