From a young medicine seller to a Taoist master

A month after setting out, Yingchuan arrived at a small town.

Huoyao Town

The town is bustling with people coming and going, and Yingchuan plans to take a rest here.

I immediately found an inn to stay in, changed into clean clothes, and then went for a walk.

Buy steamed buns, steamed buns, wontons, little brother, come and see our pork. The town is full of shouting, it's so lively.

He bought a fan. It was because of his height of 1.80 meters, handsome face, fair skin, clean and tidy clothes that he looked like a real nobleman. He was just handsome.

This of course attracted a lot of people's attention.

Some bold girls walking on the street also cast their eyes towards him.

Young man, do you want to come in and play? The charming proprietress of the brothel also cast a glance at him.

However, all this was ignored by Yingchuan. He saw several pieces of porcelain displayed in front of a porcelain shop and was immediately attracted by them.

Although I don’t know much about porcelain, I have seen several famous types of porcelain.

I have only heard of Linglong porcelain, Ru porcelain, Jun porcelain, Ding porcelain and the like, but have never seen the real thing.

He went forward to take a look. It was not any expensive porcelain, but it was very exquisite. When he entered the shop, most of the porcelains were blue and white, multicolored, doucai, underglaze red, pastel... some common varieties, all of which exuded a sense of craftsmanship.

So I asked the shopkeeper, "Shopkeeper, do you have any treasures of your collection? I want to see them..."

Before he could finish his words, the shopkeeper impatiently prepared to chase the customer away, saying, "You come here to buy porcelain and look at porcelain."

I’ll buy it, I’ll buy it, there’s nothing I like about it.

You don't even care about this. Are you here to cause trouble? The shopkeeper looked angry.

No, no, no, I just want to buy one as a treasure in my collection.

After saying this, the shopkeeper's face became better. I do have one. But, young man, I'm not afraid that you won't want it, I'm afraid that you can't afford it.

I think I should be able to afford it. Before leaving, Yingchuan took all the old man's money and bought the house, medicinal herbs and other things, which must have amounted to several thousand taels of silver.

Then the boss took Yingchuan to a single room on the second floor.

There is only one piece of porcelain in this room, a Ru porcelain as big as a human head.

The moment he came in, Yingchuan's attention was attracted.

This is the treasure of the museum. I got it by accident when I was young. It is priceless and I won’t sell it. The shopkeeper introduced it to him.

After hearing that it was not for sale, his mood dropped a lot, but for some reason, he seemed to have to get it.

But he wanted it, so he had no choice but to ask for it.

Tell me, how can we sell it?

I said I won’t sell it!

Please, please consider it.

I said I won’t sell it!

……

Finally, the shopkeeper was driven into a corner and wanted to use physical force to touch the enemy, but he failed as he wished and was suppressed with one hand.

Next, Yingchuan started begging again.

For the next period of time, he started to lick his boots again. The shopkeeper was not tired of it, but there was nothing he could do. The man refused to leave and he couldn't beat him, so he could only endure it and watch Yingchuan beg him in different ways every day.

After a month of this, the shopkeeper finally agreed to sell the porcelain, but asked him to make a porcelain of equal value in exchange.

After getting the news, Yingchuan became very motivated, because the thing that was most in demand here was people who could make porcelain.

There are many porcelains of the same level as Ru porcelain, such as Hongji, Dehua white porcelain, Ding porcelain and so on.

And Yingchuan plans to make white porcelain.

He came to the kiln and asked the master craftsman for advice.

When the old man heard Yingchuan's question, he smiled and replied, "This is a special kind of white porcelain. My family has been making this for generations, so I know it very well." Yingchuan nodded to show that he understood.

Then, the old man introduced in detail the production methods and techniques of white porcelain.

Yingchuan listened attentively and asked some questions from time to time, and the old man answered them one by one. Finally, the old man expressed his willingness to teach Yingchuan how to make this white porcelain. Yingchuan was grateful and agreed immediately.

The best way to make white porcelain is to use fine kaolin clay from around volcanoes.

The two of them kept controlling the flame and adding fuel for a full 24 hours! This required great patience and concentration. They then left the items in the shade for several days to slowly dry and mature. This process was like a delicate craft, and every step had to be handled with great care to ensure the final result was perfect.

But there were few pieces without flaws, so this kiln was considered useless. However, Yingchuan was not disappointed, but full of energy.

Over the next year, he kept trying and kept failing.

He added the newly brushed point to the strength.

In his last attempt, he finally succeeded! He couldn't help but sigh: "It's worth all my efforts."

Afterwards, he handed all the items to the shopkeeper and received the corresponding compensation. He felt very satisfied because this transaction not only allowed him to obtain the Ru porcelain, but also gave him a sense of accomplishment, getting the Ru porcelain that was as big as a man's head.

Afterwards, he returned to the inn, sat on the bed and carefully observed why this porcelain attracted him so much.

The Ru porcelain in his eyes gradually changed and became...
