Enter the Room

Song Jiyun had a headache thinking about this.

But the boy had already run off to report the news.

Song Jiyun quickly caught up with Qian San and Zhou Zheng, and the three of them went to the accounting room while talking.

When the waiter served tea, she solemnly apologized to Qian San, so that Qian San said awkwardly: "Miss Song, do you want to look at those porcelains again?"

"No need!" Song Jiyun smiled generously, "Since you said yes, it must be yes."

Qian San suddenly looked like he was having an exchange of feelings and said: "After all, it is a big kiln factory, but it has courage."

Song Jiuyun didn't know whether he had the courage or not, but after sending Qian San away, Song Jiyun immediately went to see Mr. Xiong.

Mr. Xiong obviously knew what happened, and he left without saying anything.

Song Jiyun breathed a sigh of relief, went to the warehouse in person with a serious face, and asked Luo Zixing, who was taking inventory in the warehouse: "Do you know which kiln has the problem?"

Porcelain is fired batch by batch, and if something goes wrong, it will also go wrong kiln by kiln.

Luo Zixing instructs his apprentices to soak the samples selected from each furnace in boiling water to verify whether there is any problem. At the same time, Luo Zixing anxiously replied to Song Jiyun: "Two kilns have been found now." and told her, "Check. I have handed over the results to Master Xiang, and he is taking a few apprentices to verify who is handling it?"

In order to easily calculate wages, the kiln factory keeps very detailed records of who handled each process.

After Song Jiyun took over the kiln factory, he strengthened management and improved these procedures.

Luo Zixing and others thought Song Jiyun was making a fuss out of a molehill at first, but now they couldn't help but secretly feel happy.

Song Jiyun's original intention was entirely to prevent some masters from embezzling their apprentices' wages.

The two were waiting for the results in the warehouse. Wang Dahai ran over panting and said hurriedly: "I heard you were shocked? Who the hell did this?"

Luo Zixing glanced at Song Jiyun, who always had a gloomy face, winked at him, and signaled him to stop talking and add trouble to Song Jiyun.

Wang Dahai came back to his senses, smiled sarcastically, and said: "My boss, we have only inspected one kiln so far. I don't think the problem is big."

Song Jiyun was upset and said, "What are you doing here if you're not guarding the warehouse? This is no joke. If the porcelain with shocked glaze is released, will the reputation of our kiln factory be lost?"

It's not like other people have been surprised. Only their kiln factory, from the old owner to the current owner, has made a fuss.

But Wang Dahai didn't dare to say this.

Do whatever your boss asks you to do.

He immediately said: "I'll go back and keep an eye on it to make sure nothing happens to me there."

Song Jiuyun's complexion improved a little.

At this time, Zhou Zheng ran in with a pale face and said, "My boss, it's the glaze. There's something wrong with the glaze. Yan Ji's goods are shoddy and that's why there's something wrong with our goods."

"What?" Song Jiyun was stunned, "How could it be glaze?"

Yan Ji has been supplying glazes to their family for more than 20 years, starting from her father.

If the matter is confirmed and spread, their family will no longer be able to gain a foothold in Jingdezhen.

Is their family going to commit suicide?

Song Jiyun said in a deep voice: "Are you sure?"

Zhou Zheng nodded repeatedly and said: "Boss, I think something is wrong with this matter. No matter how negligent our kiln factory is, such a mistake will never happen. Everyone is looking for the porcelain in question, so I went to check the raw materials. I really found a problem."

When he said this, his voice was choked up.

Not only because he is responsible for the raw materials, but also because if this matter also involves raw materials, the loss to the kiln factory will be an amount that people dare not look directly at.

It is possible that all employees will be suspended.

Song Jiyun's eyes flashed coldly and he said, "Let's go! Go and have a look!"

Zhou Zheng was busy leading the way, and the group went to the warehouse where the glaze was stored.

Several masters responsible for glazing are checking the glaze packages one by one.

The huge warehouse was filled with dust.

Gu Qing, the master in charge of glazing, came up with his whole body covered in gray and said anxiously: "Master, why are you here in person? Don't worry, we promise to find all the glazes with problems."

Everyone was so anxious, Song Jiyun had to stay calm at this time.

She reassured everyone: "Thank you for your hard work! I believe that we can overcome this difficulty if we work together."

He also asked Zhou Zheng to prepare supper for everyone and pay overtime pay: "Apprentices are paid two full hours as usual, and masters are paid three full hours. If problems are found, overtime pay will be doubled."

As soon as she said this, the entire kiln factory was in a state of excitement, and everyone was very motivated. The depressed atmosphere caused by the accident in the kiln factory was gone.

When the kiln factory's business is good, at most it will give some bonuses to the masters and shopkeepers like Luo Zixing and Zhou Zheng.

Under heavy rewards, there must be brave men.

The top priority is to get things sorted.

Zhou Zheng said heartbrokenly: "I'm afraid all the money I made these days will be wasted."

Song Jiyun said: "It's better than the kiln factory failing!"

How can it be!

Just relying on their boss’s porcelain-firing skills, even if any kiln factory closes down, their kiln factory will not be able to fail!

Zhou Zheng also didn't dare to say this.

He was afraid that Song Jiuyun would be unhappy.

He said: "Boss, do you think we should block the news? This will prevent those who are jealous of our business from adding to the flames and gossiping!"

"No!" Song Jiyun said flatly: "Not only don't block the news, but you also want to spread the word about it!"

She explained: "So many people have witnessed Qian San's incident. Can you go to the door one by one and ask them not to tell anyone? Since we can't stop it, let everyone know what we are doing and let everyone know. Know how we solve problems with our own porcelain, and let them know that the porcelain we can sell is guaranteed."

Zhou Zheng was still hesitant and said: "Will someone take this matter to cause trouble? Now I am worried that someone will follow the others' example and commit fraud. For the order of Buddha statues, they specially found porcelain with stunning glaze and passed it off as our porcelain."

The sales of Buddha statues are so good that orders have been scheduled for two years.

Song Jiuyun smiled and joked and said something that has been passed down for generations: "After all, black and red are also red! The important thing is to let everyone know what we have done for the porcelain with poor quality. As long as we achieve this goal, we will win."

Zhou Zheng digested her words carefully.

They returned to the brightly lit warehouse.

Luo Zixing advised Song Jiyun: "You should go back and rest! It is not possible to complete the investigation in a short time in the middle of the night."

Song Jiyun felt that his main role here was to boost morale, but he might not be able to help much if he was busy.

"It's okay!" She braced herself, "I'm with you all. You are busy here. Even if I go back, I won't be able to sleep!"

Luo Zixing no longer forced himself.

The entire kiln factory was shut down to investigate this matter.

Song Jiyun also had a notice posted at the door of the kiln, saying that the kiln would take back all the porcelain with problems, and that the porcelain could be returned at triple compensation or exchanged.

Coupled with yesterday's incident about the three Avalokitesvara statues, the news that the Song family kiln had fired a shocking glaze seemed to have wings. In just half a day, word spread throughout the streets and alleys of Jingdezhen and the dock inn.
