Shopkeeper Zhao said, "If you build a porcelain kiln, your business vision is not bad, but whether the business can do well depends on the quality of the things you bake."
"Then shopkeeper Zhao will take a look at the quality and set a certain price?"
Jiang Michia took out the porcelain bowls and basins he brought.
Shopkeeper Zhao's eyes suddenly lit up when he saw the things on the table, and he hurriedly picked them up and took a closer look.
Look at this, look at that, feel the thickness of the jade, flick it with your fingers, and listen to the music carefully.
"Not bad." Shopkeeper Zhao nodded, "The fine porcelain is considered to be of good workmanship. The shape of the bowl is good, and it can cost a hundred yuan each. The porcelain basin is even more expensive."
"Looking at the craftsmanship of your porcelain kiln master, you should be good at it. How about this? You can take whatever comes out of this kiln and we can set a price."
"Sure." Jiang Michia made an agreement with Shopkeeper Zhao to deliver the porcelain bowls and basins tomorrow to see the goods and make a price determination.
On the second day, shopkeeper Zhao received a total of seventy-eight pieces of porcelain from Jiang Michia, and the final settlement amount was ten taels of silver.
After removing the glaze and the cost of burning firewood, the profit was five taels. Zhu Yongwu received one to two five taels of silver based on 30% of the profit.
From the beginning of making the clay embryo to the final opening of the kiln, it took less than half a month.
In half a month, Zhu Yongwu earned one to two to five yuan of silver. This was the first time he fired a kiln and the amount was not large.
If you become proficient later, you can basically earn about five taels a month. If the porcelain kiln expands and recruits more apprentices, it will be even more...
Earning one hundred taels of silver a year seems less out of reach.
Think about the time when I was working in my own porcelain kiln in Zhujia Village. I was busy every day, and even got scolded endlessly. I only received 300 Wen in wages a month...
Zhu Yongwu felt increasingly that leaving Zhujiacun and settling in Jiangjiacun was the right decision.
After packing up this batch of porcelain, Zhu Yongwu continued to work on making embryos.
Jiang Chunyu took action from the side.
When the kiln was fired last time, Jiang Chunyu begged Zhu Yongwu to put all the sea bowls and basins he made into them and burn them.
From making the embryo to dipping the glaze and finally placing it in the sagger, although under the guidance of Zhu Yongwu, it was all done by Jiang Chunyu independently, and the final result was two medium-quality products.
The first time I did it, it was successful. It was still a medium quality, which is already very good.
In Zhu Yongwu's words, it is much better than what he did when he was a child.
This greatly encouraged Jiang Chunyu. He kept the sea bowls and basins he made at home and often showed them off to his friends. He even more diligently followed Zhu Yongwu to learn how to make porcelain.
Zhu Yongwu also liked Jiang Chunyu's temperament and felt that he was willing to learn, learned quickly, and learned well, so he was very willing to guide him.
Therefore, without a very strict apprenticeship ceremony, Zhu Yongwu and Jiang Chunyu got along with each other as master and apprentice.
For this kiln firing, according to the order negotiated by Jiang Mixia and Zhao Jina, more plates need to be fired, and they are underglaze colored plates.
In this case, it is necessary to draw the pattern color after the embryo has been dried and before it is glazed. When dipping it in the glaze, use white glaze or light-colored glaze and fire it in one go. The resulting porcelain will not lose the pattern color and is durable.
Underglaze coloring requires more steps and is more troublesome, but correspondingly, the rewards will be higher.
As long as he can make more money and allow Zhu Pengfei to live a good life in the future, Zhu Yongwu is not afraid of trouble and will only lead Jiang Chunyu to work in the porcelain kiln.
The bamboo weaving workshop is getting busier and busier.
The workshop is busy and goods are constantly being delivered.
Zheng Ji has a lot of orders here, so he can only deliver them urgently.
On this day, Jiang Michia and Song Jingyun first delivered this batch of waterproof bamboo boxes.
Because he was going to the county seat, Song Jingyun was happy all the way.
The order came late after the New Year, and Jiang Michia and the others were busy helping Zhu Yongwu prepare to build a porcelain kiln some time ago, so they didn't take him out for a walk for a long time.
Song Jingyun still misses the excitement of the county town and all kinds of delicious food.
Jiang Michia also knew that Song Jingyun was completely childish and that he had been bored for a long time, so he let him look around in the county town. If he saw something he liked, he would buy it.
Even in order to accompany Song Jingyun for a nice walk around the county town, he bought more food that his son-in-law liked to eat, and asked the driver to have a long lunch. He went out with Song Jingyun alone.
In spring, peas are yellow and water chestnut cake is the seasonal thing.
There are also fried pancakes with minced meat on the street that taste delicious. You can smell the aroma from a long way away, and they are also fried buns with golden sides...
The glutton in Song Jingyun's stomach was aroused, and he wanted to eat everything he saw.
Jiang Michia simply bought something one by one, and the two of them ate while walking and regarded it as lunch.
Just walking and eating like this, Jiang Michia saw that the front suddenly became lively.
"Is it so lively in front?" Song Jingyun stood on tiptoes and looked around.
Even though he was tall enough, almost a head taller than Jiang Michia, he couldn't bear the crowd of people in front of him, three circles inside and three outside, and he couldn't see clearly at all.
"Madam, let's go take a look in front?" Song Jingyun swallowed the leek box in his hand.
Since there are so many people in front of it, it must be extremely delicious.
Song Jingyun licked his lips, pulled Jiang Michia and walked forward.
Being held by Song Jingyun's generous palm, Jiang Michael paused for a moment.
But before she could react, she was already being dragged forward.
Huh?
The little husband-in-law's strength seems to be much stronger, and he can already pull her.
With an old mother's happy smile on her face, Jiang Michia followed Song Jingyun and squeezed into the crowd of people on the third floor and the third floor there.
"Come on, come on, gentlemen, please stay back a little. Don't knock over our stall, and don't touch other people's luck. If someone fails because of this and relies on you, I don't care about it. ah."
As the stall owner Wei Wanshun shouted loudly, the onlookers who were very close to the front subconsciously stepped back to leave a safe distance.
Make sure you can clearly see the excitement in front of you without disturbing other people's business.
Seeing that the people around him had retreated a little, Wei Wanshun's smile became even stronger, and he shouted at everyone with a box of chestnut cakes in his hand.
"Sun Ji's cakes, Happy Reunion, have everything in them, such as lotus cakes, chestnut cakes, honey cakes, and crispy twists. It's a big box full. If sold normally, this big box of cakes would cost one hundred and eighty yuan. Well, let’s calculate it as 150 Wen now.”
"This piece of cloth sells for 200 renminbi at the cloth shop. I bought more. The purchase price is almost 70%, which is 150 renminbi. There are also this porcelain, hairpins, silk flowers..."
