"Sir, it's like this..."

Seeing the captain, both the hawkers and merchants felt aggrieved, and immediately rushed to tell the story.

"Sir, you have to make the decision for us!"

Finally, the two of them finally spoke together.

"this......"

The captain was in trouble for a moment.

This kind of thing is not something that he, a mere captain, can make a decision about. Even their general Qin Fang can't give a conclusion.

"In this way, I will report this matter to the commander-in-chief, and I will definitely give you an answer in the next few days. As for the steamed cakes... I bought them. How about giving them to you?"

After thinking for a moment, the captain said.

"That's...that's fine! Let's forget about the steamed cakes. It would be best if the Lord of Ruyang can give an answer, so that I and other foreign merchants can feel at ease."

"Um!"

........

At the same time, Ruyang Beishan,

In front of the clay mine, Li Mo led a group of attendants to the porcelain kiln.

In addition to the craftsmen at work, businessman Liu Hai and Poem Demon King Changling, Xing Cai was also there.

"Lord, everything is done according to your previous instructions, and there is no deviation in the steps!"

While walking, Xing Cai said.

He originally worked at the county government office, but after the clay mine was discovered and there was not enough manpower here, he became the steward here and started firing porcelain with a group of old people brought from Yuntianzhuang.

"That's good! Let's open the kiln later!"

Li Mo nodded.

It has been more than a month since the porcelain kiln was built, and finally the first batch of porcelain fired according to later Jingdezhen porcelain making techniques has been completed.

Once you open the kiln, you can tell the quality of the porcelain.

"Yes, my lord!"

After nodding, Xing Cai led several shirtless men to a porcelain kiln.

Bang!

As the green bricks at the entrance of the Ci Kiln were removed piece by piece, the situation inside the Ci Kiln gradually appeared in everyone's sight.

suck!

this......

When Li Mo, Xing Cai and others saw what was going on inside, they all took a deep breath.

Even Li Mo didn't expect that the porcelain in the porcelain kiln would be so perfect.

This kiln produces white porcelain. When you look at it, it feels as white as jade and as bright as a mirror. Pick up one of the bottles and look at it again. It is as thin as paper. When you knock it lightly, it makes a sound like a chime!

Not only does it perfectly demonstrate Jingdezhen’s white porcelain craftsmanship, but the top-grade clay here makes the ceramics even more perfect than modern ones.

"Jade...is this jade?"

Behind Li Mo, businessman Liu Hai was also stunned on the spot.

He had wanted to develop this clay mine before, but later Li Mo told him that he would be given a more profitable business. He was quite excited at the time.

But later, when I heard that Li Mo also wanted to make ceramics, my heart dropped a lot.

His friend is a porcelain-firing family. Whether it is celadon or white porcelain, the porcelain produced by them is the best in the Tang Dynasty. Can Li Mo compare?

Even before opening the kiln, Liu Hai thought Li Mo's ceramics would be average.

But now...these porcelains were like a slap in the face.

My friend's porcelain is like a clay embryo in front of these white porcelains!

"That's right, lord, is this jade?"

On the side, before Li Mo could answer, Xing Cai also spoke.

Although they participated in the whole process, the final effect was really unexpected.

At present, there are two types of porcelain in the Tang Dynasty, namely celadon and white porcelain.

Regardless of whether it is celadon or white porcelain, after firing, the whole body of the porcelain will either have a light yellow color or a light earthy blue color.

Therefore, although this kind of porcelain is easy to use, many common people and wealthy people still retain the habit of using pottery because of its color and appearance.

now,

The porcelain in the porcelain kiln is just like the top-grade jade, and its appearance and beauty far exceed the current white porcelain of the Tang Dynasty.

What's more important is that the porcelain of the Tang Dynasty is covered with various small cracks, but these little cracks are not visible in front of you, and it still gives people a feeling that it is as natural as it should be.

"Of course this is porcelain! Let's go and see the colorful kiln!"

Li Mo nodded and walked to the next porcelain kiln.

The white porcelain must have been successfully fired. Although there are some cracked and defective products in the kiln, the overall quality is very good.

Compared with white porcelain, colored porcelain is the most important.

Once colored porcelain comes out, it will definitely be snapped up by top merchants and even foreign countries.

"Yes! Lord!"

With the experience of opening the first porcelain kiln, Xing chose to do it himself for the second porcelain kiln.

Boom!

Three times, five times and two times, the gray bricks in front of the color kiln are completely opened.

"Oh my god...this..."

When everyone saw what was going on inside, their reactions were almost exactly the same as when they saw the white porcelain just now. No! It should be said that they were even more shocked.

The patterns on the bottle look so exquisite and the colors are uniform, it really looks like something out of fairy palace.

"It turns out that porcelain can still be like this. It was because I was too ignorant before!"

It wasn't until a long time passed that merchant Liu Shan came back to his senses and sighed.

"Xingcai!"

Li Mo smiled and turned to look at Xing Cai,

"Lord!"

"Take someone to open the remaining porcelain kilns one by one and count the quantities! By the way, be careful when counting the porcelain."

"yes!"

Xing Cai nodded hurriedly.

After Xingcai took the order to leave, Li Mo looked at the merchant Liu Hai.

"Boss Liu, how much do you think these porcelains are worth? If you were to sell them... would you be confident?"

"Lord Qi, each of these porcelains are of high quality. Even the defective ones can be sold for a high price. Each piece starts with at least a hundred taels of silver, and the better ones can cost thousands of taels."

Liu Hai took a deep breath and said hurriedly.

"Then... how about I leave this porcelain business to you?"

Li Mo nodded slightly and said again.

The price Liu Hai gave was similar to what he expected. After all, Tang Dynasty porcelain was not cheap.

"Sir, do you really want to hand over the porcelain business to me?"

Upon hearing this, Liu Hai couldn't hide his excitement.

"certainly!"

Li Mo nodded slightly.

He would never go back on his promise. If he had promised Liu Hai, he would have left it to Liu Hai. What's more, without Liu Hai, he would not have known that there were such high-quality clay mines in the mountains north of Ruyang.

"Thank you, sir, for your support. Don't worry, sir... Our firm will purchase the porcelain here for five hundred taels per piece, as much as you need!"

The next moment, Liu Hai said hurriedly.

"Five hundred taels? Okay!"

Li Mo made some calculations and agreed directly.

Some porcelain can indeed be sold at a high price, but some can only be sold for dozens of taels. Evenly divided, Ruyang will not suffer a loss at 500 taels.

Moreover, given the current scale of Ruyang,

You can earn at least hundreds of thousands of taels of silver by firing it once.

"Sir, will the people from our business come to pick up the goods later?"

"good!"

Coincidentally, just when Li Mo was about to order someone to draw up another deed, Wang Changling came over from a distance with a hurried look.

"Lord, there was news from over there just now!"

He looked at the crowd, and then lowered his voice when the crowd left.
