Chapter 2066: Porcelain is broken and porcelain is restored

"Master Fang, thank you for your help in getting married between the Xu and Meng families... This is my girl Ci, please bring her out to thank you." The eldest son of the Meng family greeted his eldest daughter and said, "Sister Ci, come and pay homage to Master Fang. Thanks for his help."

Meng Ci blushed, came over and bowed to Xu Fang, and said softly: "Sister Ci, I have met Mr. Fang. Thank you very much."

Xu Fang didn't expect that the Meng family's uncle would be so private and would bring his unmarried daughter out to see him in such a big way.

Although he has a great reputation, in the final analysis he is just a servant, and what Meng Ci promised was the Second Young Master Xu. The fiance of a master came to give a gift to a servant... The Marquis was right, the Meng family was not worthy of his use at all. A **** comes to win over, and he only deserves to be teased by him.

However, Meng Ci's appearance was not bad, and her face was fairer than that of the average northwest woman. Xu Fang took a second look at her.

Mr. Meng was so angry that he glared at Mr. Meng and cursed: "Boss, you are still so unruly at your age. Mr. Fang is here to talk about trouble. Why are you bringing Sister Ci here to cause trouble?"

The engagement letter has been obtained. Sister Ci is considered to be the unmarried daughter-in-law of Lord Xus family. She is now the master. If you bring her to meet a servant, isnt this lowering her status? idiot!

Xu Fang came to his senses, looked away, and said to Mr. Meng: "There is one more thing I want to tell Mr. Meng. The custom in Mr. Marquis's hometown is that if the engagement is to be made in the first month, the woman must embroider it before the dragon raises his head in the second month. Give the purse to the man, and the mans family will use the purse to pack grain and seeds to celebrate the good harvest and new life.

Mr. Meng naturally did not dare to neglect matters related to the harvest and the continuation of the family line. He said: "This is a big deal. Don't worry, Sister Ci will embroider it before February 2nd and send it to the Xu family."

Xu Fang smiled and said, "Second Young Master is not here. Just give me the purse after it is embroidered. I will take it to the Marquis, who will fill it with grain and seeds."

He also specifically explained: "There is no need to embroider the full name, just embroider the two surnames Xu and Meng on one side of the purse."

After hearing this, Mr. Meng frowned. He always felt that there was a fraud here, but he thought about it and agreed: "Okay, follow the rules of Mr. Marquis's hometown."

Xu Fang smiled, thanked Mr. Meng, and then said: "Old man, there are many wounded soldiers under the command of the Marquis. We cannot delay the porcelain firing any longer. Let's set off to the porcelain kiln to have a look. First Lets bake a batch of porcelain and have a look.

After saying that, he stood up and walked out, not giving Mr. Meng any chance to delay.

With the engagement letter in hand, Mr. Meng didn't want to delay any longer. After giving the Meng family a few words, he left with his confidant, the old steward, and took the Xu family's carriage out of the city.

But not long after leaving the city gate, I saw a group of more than a hundred soldiers wearing armor and carrying swords.

Xu Fang asked someone to stop the carriage, raised the curtain, pointed at the group of soldiers, and said with a smile: "Mr. Meng, porcelain is precious. This is specially sent by the Marquis to protect the porcelain kiln."

Having said that, regardless of whether Mr. Meng agreed or not, he lowered the curtain and let the carriage start moving again.

When Mr. Meng heard the sound of horse hooves following the carriage and the sound of iron weapons clashing with armor and sabers, his heart dropped and his face turned extremely ugly. He finally couldn't help it anymore and asked angrily: "Xu Fang, what on earth are you doing?" What do you mean? Did you find these people or were they sent by the Marquis? Tell me clearly!"

Xu Fang smiled and coaxed Mr. Meng: "Old man, the porcelain business is done by the three families of Xu, Shen and Meng together. The Shen family is a relative of the emperor and has long wanted to dominate the porcelain business. If the Marquis doesn't send troops to guard it, the Shen family will When the family guards arrive, it will be difficult for the Marquis to send people to Zhuangzi."

He added: "The Xu and Meng families are in-laws, and life and death are tied together. What else does Mr. Meng have to worry about?"

After hearing this, Mr. Meng's face became a little better: "The Marquis is thoughtful, but next time if the Marquis has any arrangements, it is better to inform me in advance, so that I can help."

Xu Fang sneered inwardly, who do you think you are and why I informed you in advance? It would be nice if I didn't kill you now. But he smiled and said: "Yes, I will convey Mr. Meng's words to the Marquis... In fact, the Marquis respects you very much and said that your family's porcelain craftsmanship has helped him a lot, allowing him to have enough money to raise an army. There is still a place to house the sick and wounded soldiers.

Mr. Meng smiled and said: "The soldiers protect the northwest and prevent us from being slaughtered by the bandits. After they are disabled, we should take care of them and give them a job. Moreover, the wages paid to the sick and injured soldiers are low, which is very important to the porcelain kilns." Its a good thing and benefits everyone, so theres nothing to thank you for.

But he still felt a little proud in his heart. After all, the dignified Marquis was grateful to him for this matter, which made him feel that his status was higher than that of the Marquis.

However, Mr. Meng never thought until his death that the sick and wounded soldiers sent by Xu You were all relatively strong, and that the Meng family's property would be embezzled step by step by the Xu family.

An hour later, they arrived at Mengjiazhuangzi on the outskirts. There was a ready-made porcelain kiln and all the masters were busy there.

Xu Fang and Mr. Meng did not delay. As soon as they arrived at the place, they went to the porcelain kiln and asked the masters to bake porcelain that day.

The Meng family's porcelain kiln was an old kiln, and the temperature was not high enough. It took three days of firing to fully bake the green embryo. Xu Fang waited in the porcelain kiln for three days. But the porcelain in the kiln was broken.

"Gray, how can it be gray?!" Xu Fang looked at the porcelain shoveled out with a long shovel, his face was completely black, and he ordered the master who shoveled the porcelain: "Shovel again!"

The master's hand holding the long shovel was shaking, and he hurriedly shoveled out a few more porcelains. However, among the six porcelains that came out, three were gray, two were yellow and cracked, and the remaining one, although it had no cracks, was It's not white porcelain, the porcelain body has been smoked out to a light yellow color, as if a baby has a stomachache and has diarrhea in its trouser pockets.

!

Xu Fang smashed the porcelain, pointed at the fragments and said, "Mr. Meng, the Marquis gave all his sons to your family, and your family burned such rags? Playing tricks on the Marquis is a capital crime!"

When Mr. Meng heard this, he was shocked and said hurriedly: "Master Fang, the Meng family don't dare to fool Mr. Hou. Besides, this porcelain is not so easy to burn. It is often burned out, so it is sold like this." Its expensive and only wealthy households can afford it.

He added: "It is normal for porcelain to break. Don't worry. Let the masters come over and take a look at the raw embryos. Then control the temperature of the kiln, and you will be able to produce good porcelain."

Xu Fang: "Then hurry up. Qingniushan Village is also firing porcelain. If they fire it first, they will take away the title of the best porcelain in the northwest!"

The Marquis sent an order to be the first family in the northwest to produce porcelain.

After hearing this, Mr. Meng hurriedly called to the masters: "Hurry up and check the embryo, the clay, and the kiln temperature to see what's wrong!"

"Hey, hey." The masters of the Meng family immediately started working, but they found out what was wrong. Finally, they opened the notes left by Patriarch Meng, opened an extra kiln hole, and said: " According to what was written in the ancestor's handbook, I changed the kiln holes and tried firing another kiln."
