The future troubles must be eradicated, otherwise we will pay a heavy price when we suffer backlash in the future.

This is a lesson Gu Qing learned in his previous life.

The best way to eliminate future troubles is of course to kill people, but Gu Qing is not that cruel. Even if it is not illegal to kill people, he would not bear to do it if he was handed a knife.

You can't kill future troubles, and you can't let them go. It doesn't matter, Gu Qing has many ways to eliminate future troubles.

The Ding brothers are still locked up in the woodshed. Not only are they locked up, they also have to receive education and baptism every day.

Song Gensheng gathered a dozen villagers outside the door. The appearance of the villagers was a bit miserable. Some were too young and some were too old. People in ancient times looked old. A dozen people stood in a row like four generations taking a family photo.

.

Gu Qing looked at the row of sallow-looking villagers in front of him and sighed. Just make do with it, as long as you don't have any missing arms or legs.

Taking out a handful of copper coins from the jar, Gu Qing gave each person five cents, telling them that this was a reward, and what they had to do was to go up the mountains and down the rivers, covering every inch of land near the mountain village, and find a kind of food with high viscosity.

If you can find any soil, take samples and bring them back, and you will be paid.

The villagers looked at each other in confusion.

Gu Qing had no choice but to explain patiently and tell them what the clay looked like. It was light red, slightly white, and blue-gray high clay. This kind of thing was relatively common and could be found on the hillsides beside the river beach.

The conditions were not enough, so we could only make pottery temporarily. Porcelain requires special porcelain clay. In later generations, a place called "Gaoling" in the Jiangnan region produced famous porcelain clay. If you don't know this place, everyone must know "Jingdezhen".

Gaoling is right next door to Jingdezhen. (Note: During the Tianbao period of the Tang Dynasty, Jingdezhen was named "Fuliang")

It is precisely because of kaolin that Jingdezhen porcelain is famous all over the world.

Of course, the so-called "kaolin" is just a name. In fact, it is a kind of mineral soil. This kind of soil is not only produced in Kaoling. It is produced in many states in the Tang Dynasty.

Is there a kaolin mine near Qingcheng Mountain in Shuzhou? I don’t know yet. Gu Qing can only make pottery, but there are still great prospects for development in the future. I asked Song Gensheng yesterday and found that kaolin was circulated among merchants in the Tang Dynasty. In other words, flower

Money can buy kaolin clay.

Starting from the Eastern Han Dynasty, the imperial court established an official office called "Zhen Guan Office". This Zhen Guan Office was responsible for relatively unpopular affairs. They specialized in building materials and decorative supplies, including bricks, tiles, cut stones, clay, etc.

After the founding of the Tang Dynasty, the Zhen Guan Office still existed and was subordinate to the generals and supervisors. In the early years of the Tang Dynasty, the Zhen Guan Office was only responsible for the construction materials of the royal family and government offices. After the prosperous Kaiyuan Dynasty, there was a bustle of money coming and going, and the Zhen Guan Office went to sea.

Nowadays, it has also opened many circulation channels among the people. Businessmen traveling from north to south have become its dealers, responsible for exchanging various building materials and decorative materials available in the north and south. Kaolin is also one of them. As long as you find the right businessman,

You can buy kaolin clay.

"Can you make porcelain if you find clay?" Song Gensheng was a little excited. He didn't know what Gu Qing was going to do next or how he would do it, but he was vaguely aware that as long as he followed Gu Qing, life would be different from before.

Gu Qing shook his head: "Pottery clay can only produce pottery, not porcelain. Porcelain must be fired with porcelain clay."

"Isn't it possible to burn it with coal?"

"No. The two most important things for making porcelain are: fire, the temperature must be high enough, and soil, which must be specific porcelain clay. Both are indispensable."

Song Gensheng scratched his head in disappointment.

Gu Qing smiled: "But the quality of the pottery we burn with coal will be extraordinary. If we can find the right businessman, we can live a good life."

Patting Song Gensheng on the shoulder, Gu Qing said with a smile: "Making money is not as hard as farming. With money, you can do a lot of things you want to do in the future, such as building yourself a big house, buying two cows for your family, etc.

Which girl can easily come up with Nacai's money..."

Song Gensheng was so weak and uninterested in the things mentioned above, but when the topic of marrying his wife came up, Song Gensheng's spirit perked up, and his listlessness just now was swept away.

"Yes! I'll make some money and give it to Aunt Yang as a betrothal gift!" Song Gensheng excitedly clapped his hands.

Gu Qing was dumbfounded: "You're giving a betrothal gift to your aunt? What a beast, it turns out you are so good at this...exciting!"

Song Gensheng was stunned for a moment, then he was shocked: "That's not what I meant! You misunderstood! It's not my aunt, it's Aunt Yang's daughter Xiu'er. I want to marry Xiu'er!"

"Is Xiu'er the girl you were sneaking around at today?"

"Yes," Song Gensheng lowered his head and said in a low voice, "You can't say 'sneaky', right? The sage said: Don't look at anything inappropriate. I want to be a gentleman, but sometimes I can't help but look at her..."

"Tsk!" Gu Qing suddenly felt his teeth sour, the sour smell of love...

"Gensheng, let's talk about clay, okay? Can we talk about making money?" Gu Qing tried to change the topic. The conversation turned to areas he was not good at, and he felt like he had lost the right to speak.

However, Gu Qing was destined to lose the right to speak in this chat. Song Gensheng was immersed in this sour love and couldn't extricate himself. He thought to himself: "Xiuer's family is very pitiful. Aunt Yang is a widow. In her early years, her husband joined the army, and the sword

In the battle between Nan Dao and Tubo, her husband died in the battle, leaving orphans and widowed mothers struggling to survive. The Ding brothers coerced and lured many times to persuade Aunt Yang to sell Xiu'er to a wealthy family as a concubine. Aunt Yang refused and was forced to die.

She was bullied a lot by the Ding brothers. Even the land planted by mother and daughter was often pulled out by the Ding brothers. Several times I saw that her family could only survive by eating wild vegetables..."

Gu Qing listened quietly.

Do you feel pity in your heart when you listen to other people's tragic stories? Maybe you do. But who doesn't have the scar of not being treated kindly in their heart? After the wound is healed, the scar will always be there.

Gu Qing's kindness and compassion are too deep. He has not had many good experiences in his two lives, so he doesn't want to show his kindness and compassion too cheaply.

"Xiu'er is a very kind girl, and I... am also considered kind." Song Gensheng smiled sheepishly: "Seeing that their mother and daughter were having a hard time, I often secretly sent some rice to her family. Later, she gradually realized that it was

I gave them as gifts, so a handful of freshly picked wild vegetables and two freshly caught river fish often appeared in front of my house. We seldom talked, but things kept coming back and forth."

Song Gensheng suddenly looked up at Gu Qing and said seriously: "I want to marry her."

Gu Qing smiled: "Is this girl willing to marry you?"

Song Gensheng lowered his head in frustration and sighed: "I don't know, apart from sending things to each other, she and I haven't spoken much. She seems to be avoiding me on purpose."

Gu Qing rubbed his forehead, feeling a little headache.

It’s so weird. Weren’t we talking about making money just now? Why did you bring up the topic of marrying your wife?

This topic is really unattractive.
