Datang Hotel: The Leisurely Life of a Chef Dad

Zhao Dayou didn't care about this. He was a little anxious at this time. If he was interrupted, he might not remember the next words.

So he spoke faster.

"What we see here is the craftsman Niu Er. This is a middle-aged man whose family was almost ruined. He is older and younger. He was once down and out, and when the weather was cold, he didn't even have any decent clothes. Skin and bones, but now, he has become the leader of the first team. From being poor and helpless, to now having a surplus of food at home, the elderly are healthy, the children are growing, and the business is prosperous. With diligence and the simple spirit unique to craftsmen, he has become a leader. A role model for ordinary craftsmen at Lam Tin Glaze Factory.”

Li Shimin noticed the Niu Er in Zhao Dayou's mouth. It was a bit round and not skinny at all, but the skin was dark and red as if it had been burned. At first glance, he looked like a hardworking person.

At this time, Niu Er was staring intently at a bottle that had just come out. The temperature of the bottle was extremely high. He carefully blew away the dust and stared at the patterns on it. After a while, he frowned: "Broken it, remade it, there are flaws. ”

Li Shimin strode over. This Liuli was very big, as big as a huge flower pot. It could almost be planted with a tree. Looking at the pattern on it, it was green mountains and green water, bamboo forest and birds chirping. It was so pleasant.

"Your name is Niu Er, right?"

"This thing is so beautiful, why did you smash it and remake it?"

Niu Er looked up and saw a face he didn't recognize, but based on the principle that everyone who came was an uncle, and Zhao Dayou kept winking, Niu Er immediately had a smile on his face and bowed his body: "Hey, this gentleman, you are very elegant at first sight. You understand Liuli and appreciate Liuli. There are not many people like you in the world."

When Li Shimin heard this, he was naturally happy. He liked this horse.

To say that before, the reason why he liked Liuli was not necessarily because he really understood her, but after so many years, even if he didn't understand, Li Shimin now wants to be the king of understanding.

"The flaws on this glass are in the pattern."

When Li Shimin heard Niu Erxi's words, he stretched out his hand suspiciously to take it and take a closer look.

"Bah!" Niu Er raised his hand to stop Li Shimin's arm, which was trying to silence him. "No, sir, it's extremely hot up here. Look if you don't believe me."

Niu Er took out a piece of hay from the side and stretched it towards Liuli. Before the hay touched Liuli, it suddenly started to smoke, and then burst into flames.

Li Shimin took a breath: "Niu Er, tell me quickly what's going on with this glass."

Niu Er nodded: "Sir, look, the pattern on it is extremely elegant, with green mountains and green waters, and it has a lot of charm. If there is nothing wrong with this pattern, there is really nothing wrong with it. The brushwork is also unique. Our craftsmen also did the same when making it. Basically restored.”

"Yes, but why throw it away?"

"Hey, guest, think about it, how can it be so neat and tidy with the green mountains and green water, the bamboo forest and the chirping of birds? If you want to say that it is an inaccessible place, it must be full of bushes and wild animals. But look at this small river. This bird's nest in the tree..."

When Niu Er said this, Li Shimin's heart exploded, as if a pot had exploded.

This shock was no less than hearing the thunder in the sky outside the bookstore.

"This... hiss..."

"Okay, okay, Niu Er, you are right, continue!"

Li Shimin clasped his hands behind his back, and now he suddenly realized that the people here in Liu Xuan could not

Treat it like an ordinary person.

Even though he is just a craftsman, he actually knows something about painting.

"If you want to say that this beautiful mountain and water are extremely neat and tidy, then there must be a family there."

"Look here." Niu Er pointed to a blank space in the distance, "There is nothing here, just a little bit of grass, which is wrong. Since it is a painting, it must leave some blank aftertaste, naturally. It’s okay, but it lacks a little vitality…”

"So there should be a house here. In the chimney above the house, smoke is slowly rising..."

boom!

Li Shimin felt his body begin to tremble.

Damn it!

An ordinary craftsman from the Tang Dynasty was already so skilled?

Li Shimin himself didn't expect that his face was rosy. He didn't know whether it was embarrassment or excitement.

"Oh? Niu Er, you used to be a painter?"

"Sir, you are so flattering to me. I used to be a craftsman, mason, carpenter, everything."

Li Shimin looked unbelieving: "Impossible, absolutely impossible. Why do you understand this pattern so well?"

Niu Er glanced at Zhao Dayou, and after receiving Zhao Dayou's affirmative look, he slowly said: "This is all the credit of the Marquis, hehe."

"We didn't understand it before. We always thought we were craftsmen. Why do we need to learn so many things? We still have to learn for two hours. How tiring it is."

"Why don't you work more and make more glaze for the Marquis? The Marquis has been very kind to us, so we can't rest."

"But guess what? The Marquis directly pointed at us idiots and scolded us. The Marquis said, you fools know how to do it, but you have to have a direction to work hard. Look, you are exhausted. To be honest, the gadgets produced were only worth ten cents in the Tang Dynasty, but if you learn these things, the things you create will be worth a hundred cents! "

Niu Er said mysteriously: "This is what the Marquis said, I'm not talking nonsense."

After taking a look at Zhao Dayou, Niu Er felt relieved. He was right.

"Do you have many craftsmen like this here?"

Li Shimin felt turbulent in his heart, his mind was a little confused, the world was changing too fast, and he felt a little short of breath.

"There are three thousand people in our glaze factory. There are actually not many such people, only one thousand. The other two thousand have just arrived and are still learning. Don't mention it. They used to do hard work and never knew Why do you want to learn? They all think that learning those things and knowing how to read is to become an official, but it is different now. Mr. Hou is right, knowledge is power. "

knowledge is power.

Li Shimin was very excited: "Lao Fang, Lao Fang..."

Fang Xuanling raised her eyebrows and wanted to dance, but she suppressed the excitement in her heart and her hands trembled: "Remember it, remember it, without leaving a word."

Zhao Dayou winked, and Niu Er bowed towards Li Shimin and said, "Sir, look again. I have to go and see the newbies."

At this time, Li Shimin stood blankly in the factory, looking at the glazed stoves, which stood like small tombs in the factory area. Looking at the rows of houses not far away, he suddenly realized that Liu Xuan What to do.

"He wants to improve the status of craftsmen."

"Why doesn't this child make people worry?"
