Chapter 197 Visit
"This is the lobby, and everything you see here can be negotiated for a bulk price upstairs."

Xiaoqiu introduced the grocery store model to Lu Chengyang who came to Jincheng for the first time.

The bored Lu Changfeng followed closely behind elder brother to add.

"I counted them out of boredom when I first came here a few days ago, and there are probably hundreds of them."

Lu Chengyang glanced at Changfeng and didn't speak, but continued to follow Xiaoqiu to the grocery store.

The entire grocery store is lined up, with three rooms on the left and three rooms on the right, and three rooms on the second floor. In addition to the one with the colorful glazed roof, there are two reception rooms on the third floor.

"It's Lunar New Year's Eve, and there are no peddlers staying in the grocery store. In the past, when you come here, you can see peddlers hanging around the grocery store. They will carefully consider the cost-effectiveness of each item, and then choose whether to wholesale and how much to wholesale. Moreover, we have many peddlers affiliated with grocery stores. These people are usually peddlers in the west of Yongzhou. Unexpectedly, you can’t turn over for the rest of your life. This kind of example abounds in Yongzhou. But Tianshui and Hanzhong are relatively better. They have easy roads and relatively more opportunities. So different people are treated differently in grocery stores. And relatively, the merchants in the west of Yongzhou will be more stable and practical, because they regard the goods as their lives. Most of the agents of wool thread and colored glaze in our grocery store are merchants in the west of Yongzhou. play its due role.”

Following Xiao Qiu's introduction, the three went up to the second floor.

"You can't see it here now. It's usually the storekeeper who is in charge of reception and negotiation of prices. One person per room, one person at a time."

"This is the colorful glazed roof on the third floor. The sun is just right today. The two young masters can take a rest here. There are all kinds of colored glazes in this room, colorless, solid-colored, colorful, and of various thicknesses and strengths. , Young Master, you can get a feel for it."

Lu Chengyang put his hand on the pure colored glaze, "Is this the colored glaze that Sister sent someone to install in my study?"

He turned around and asked Xiaoqiu who was beside him.

Xiaoqiu smiled, "Yes, madam said that you spend almost all your time in the study, and your eyes are almost broken, so the first batch of colored glaze was sent to you after it was baked. It is the most transparent kind."

"Out of the oven? Is this fired?"

Xiao Qiu smiled, "If you two have time, let's go to the Liuli Workshop."

After hearing this, Lu Changfeng abducted his elder brother Lu Chengyang, "Last time I said I wanted to go to Liuli Workshop, but my sister refused to let me go. Now that you are here, my sister will let me take a look with you. Hey, who told me to be a little girl?" It's just that I am not trusted by my sister."

Lu Chengyang didn't seem to hear it, he was talking to Xiao Qiu, "Then let's go to Liuli Workshop."

Xiao Qiu took the lead downstairs with a smile, footsteps sounded on the wooden stairs, Lu Chengyang glanced at Chang Feng beside him, "Are you not trusted by sister just because you are young?"

Lu Changfeng clutched his chest, "Brother, don't be too harsh with me. I'm your own younger brother. You should love me more. Don't treat me like your classmates."

As the youngest in the family, Lu Changfeng is the most clingy. Sometimes he goes to his school with his elder brother, and when he sees his elder brother fighting with his classmates, he hits the nail on the head. The person who hates him almost vomits blood, but he is very leadership in their college. When other students see Ah Brother became more respectful, almost more prestigious than the teachers of their college, which made Lu Changfeng wonder whether brother's classmates had a tendency to be abused.

"Look at the road."

Lu Chengyang arrived calmly.

Lu Changfeng knew that Elder Brother had let him go, so he followed Xiao Qiu out obediently.

It is unexpected that the legendary Liuli Workshop is right next to the back door of Huo Mansion.

"At first, it was in Huohou's back house. Later, the scale expanded and there were more people. Therefore, for convenience, the young master bought this side-by-side house. Now, from the front, it is only Huohou's house, but the street behind, Basically, the craftsmen of the Huo Mansion live there."

When I came to the colored glaze workshop, the shotgun has been replaced with the cannon. It is much more magnificent than the small stove in Huohou's back house. There are not only blast furnaces, but also various small stoves, which are used to make various glazed utensils.

"This is Master Lin, the oldest glazed master in the glazed workshop. Most of the exquisite colorful glazed utensils we have seen come from his hands. Master Lin, tomorrow is the Chinese New Year, why don't you go home and clean up today?"

Xiaoqiu greeted Master Lin familiarly, it is not difficult to see that their relationship is quite close.

Master Lin seems to have a relatively taciturn face, with deep grooves on his face, because he is often by the fire, his skin is a deep bronze color with luster, he concentrates on making the utensils in his hand, and casually asks Xiaoqiu questions and answers with his mouth.

"When I go back, I'm still sitting. The women at home have packed up everything. Now I'm taking the children to make dumplings. I'll go out to the stove to get some air. Now that I'm here, I'll just start a stove and make a few more. It's easy. In [-], our glass reserves were insufficient, so I asked you to come here and rush the goods."

Master Lin spoke casually, and his eyes were still fixed on the red-hot glass cubes in the furnace.

Xiao Qiu smiled faintly, "The supply of our colored glaze is in short supply, and the merchants are pressing hard, so I can't come over and urge one or two."

Lu Chengyang and Lu Changfeng looked at it with novelty, watching Master Lin twist and shape a red mass by the fire, and then slowly cool and gradually become colorful and transparent.

Master Lin took a few breaths, turned the long pole in his hand a few times, and a beautiful shoulder bottle appeared in Master Lin's hands.

"Mr. Lin is so ingenious and skilled, he is a real master!"

Lu Chengyang saw that the master was lifting weights lightly, so he praised him. The word "sir" made Master Lin turn his head to look at the visitor, "Sir, you don't need to boast, we craftsmen are not worthy of the word "sir."

Lu Chengyang smiled, "The gentlemen in the school are just piles of words, which are exactly the same as your glazed craftsmanship. Practice makes perfect. Of course you can afford it."

A smile appeared on Master Lin's face as deep as a woodcut, and he went down with a small head, and the shaped glazed vessel fell off the long pole.

"This is something I used to practice my hands today. It's quite simple to make, but the shape of the utensil is fairly regular. If I have a chance today, I will give it to the young master."

Seeing that Master Lin handed Lu Chengyang the glassware that was just out of the pot and was still hot, both Lu Changfeng and Xiao Qiu were surprised.Lu Chengyang took it with both hands, "This glazed ware is extremely exquisite, and the student accepts it with a smile. Later, someone will bring the article I wrote. It's a return gift, so don't refuse."

"Ah."

Master Lin hummed lightly, then took out another group of colored glaze blocks and began to make utensils.

Only then did Xiao Qiu take the two of them to visit elsewhere.

"My brother is really cute."

Lu Changfeng said sourly.

Lu Chengyang slapped Chang Feng's shoulder, looking light and light, but the two brothers still had some strength in their hands from beating and training since childhood.

Lu Changfeng rubbed his shoulders, not daring to talk cheap to elder brother again.

After visiting the Liuli Workshop, I just returned to the front hall from the backyard of Huo Mansion.

Xiao Qiu went to report to his wife, Changfeng followed Elder Brother back to the study, saw Elder Brother solemnly placed the glazed wares on the shelf next to the desk, and took out the Four Books and Five Classics that he marked every day to wrap them up.

"Xi Yan, go and send these books to Liuli Workshop to Master Lin."
