Chapter 457

*****

when I came to the company, I saw two brothers and sisters of Luo Qing and Luo Bai wearing aprons, gray heads and gray heads making ceramic embryos.

The two brothers and sisters were so absorbed that they didn't see Yang Zimei coming.

Yang Zimei also looked at it with great interest and asked min Gang, "are the raw materials for making porcelain the same as other common raw materials?"

Hearing her voice, Luo Baifang raised his head and laughed at her: "Miss Yang is here?"

"Well, you're busy. Don't mind me."

Yang Zimei sat down on a small stool.

"If you want to make it like this, you must use the same raw materials as ancient porcelain, otherwise, you can't make high imitation. The clay used for making clay molds must be close to that of Machang soil of Yuan Dynasty. Only in this way can we create the characteristics of the blue and white of Yuan Dynasty, which are greasy, waxy and soft, not too dense and loose, and the cross-section of the soil has obvious cracks. The thickness of the ground must be in accordance with the ancient standards Min Gang explained on the side.

"Is it difficult to find the soil in Machang?" Yang Zimei asked.

"It's already scarce." Min Gang said with a wry smile, "almost equal to gold price. In addition to the barnyard soil, this colorant is extremely difficult to find. At that time, the coloring agent used for yuan blue and white porcelain was sumaliqing, which was imported from Iran. This kind of raw material had been exhausted in the late Ming Dynasty and was not imported. My father sent people to Iran to collect and purchase, but he could only get a little from a traditional craftsman. "

"How can we start a company when the raw materials are so exhausted?" Yang Zimei was sweating. Of course, she knew that the raw materials of imitation yuan blue and white were rare, but she didn't expect that it would be so difficult to find. Without raw materials, how could the company go on?

"There are only two levels. The real Machang soil and sumaliqing make the first-class imitation yuan blue and white, while for others, we have to use the clay molds close to the Machang soil and the ingredients imitating sumaliqing to mix the colorants. However, it's not easy to prepare. It's not illegal to sell this dye alone, and it's more profitable than white powder. " Min Gang explained.

"Is there a finished product?" Yang Zimei asked with great interest.

"Just made a blue and white bowl, but Luo Bai said it was a failure." Min Gang Road.

"Well, it's a failed product. When coloring, the hand slightly shakes, causing the picture to fail." Luo Bai is helpless.

"It's OK. I'll take a look."

Min Gang carefully held out a blue and white porcelain bowl from the office.

For Luo Bai, although this is a failure product, but for min Gang, this is his first bowl to open the company, which is of great significance.

Yang Zimei took over the blue and white porcelain bowl.

This bowl has a very good handle. It is smooth and tender like jade. It has a strong waxy soft feeling. It is completely the same as the blue and white of Yuan Dynasty in terms of shape, decoration, and glaze.

If she had not opened her eyes, she would not have seen that it was not an antique bowl.

This blue and white painting is also very good, beautiful and meticulous, like a touch of light blue after the rain, which makes people feel relaxed and happy.

"Where is the failure?"

Yang Zimei looks for Luo Bai's failure, but can't find it.

"Well, here, it's very subtle." Min Gang pointed to the petals of one of the flowers.

Sure enough, there was a slightly longer line on the edge of the petal, but if you don't look carefully, you can't see it, and it doesn't affect the sense of the whole flower.
