"I know you have materials. If you have something ready-made, you can put it here and sell it. Just give me a commission!"
Fang Jing quickly said, "No way, I'm giving those to you as a gift!"
Fang Zongtang: “…” There’s no rush for gifts, what’s important is your two sons finding wives!
Saying this might hurt the self-esteem of Fang Jing and his two sons.
"Okay, I'll accept the gift, but I don't want the wood for free. If you have a lot of wood, just sell it to the store. You must be more familiar with the prices in the mainland than I am. Just take the money directly from the account!"
Fang Jing wanted to give the wood away for free. Just as he was about to speak, Fang Zongtao turned around and took them to see the backyard.
"There's an empty house in the backyard, you can clean it up and live there. I have a small western-style building nearby for the porcelain pieces piled in the yard, you can move them to the building when you have time!"
Fang Jing and his son quickly memorized it.
Someone came to deliver something, but she couldn't tell what it was, so she called him.
"Just take your time and look at it. I'll go to the front!"
I have been looking for a master who can examine porcelain for several days, but I haven't found a suitable one.
It would be great if there was someone who could appreciate porcelain!
At around four o'clock in the afternoon, Fang Jing and his son came again.
He pushed a tricycle full of stuff over and brought a dozen people with him.
There are both young and old!
Fang Jing looked at Fang Zongtang with an embarrassed look on his face, and said awkwardly: "Brother Zongtang, does Lao Xingtang need anyone else?"
Fang Zongtang put down the broken porcelain in his hand and stood up.
"Are they also from the Fang family of the Rong Xiang?"
Fang Jing nodded and began to introduce them one by one: "Fang Quan, who works in a handicraft factory, can cut off the pieces and repair bottles. His three sons have been learning from him and their skills are pretty good. Fang Li, who works in a kiln factory, can fire the kiln. He originally learned how to fire porcelain from his father, and later went to work in the kiln factory, firing bricks and tiles every day. His sons also work in the kiln factory. Fang Yuan, used to sell antiques in the Friendship Store, but later he was laid off. He has good eyesight. His two sons often hang out on Duobao Street, and their eyesight is pretty good! Fang Ming, who used to work in a kiln factory, broke his leg last year, and now sells small odds and ends on Duobao Street. His two sons can also repair things."
Fang Zongtang: Whatever you want, you will get it.
Fang Jing continued: "They also want to find some work here!"
She understood that they all wanted stable jobs!
"Come in with me!" She took them to the backyard.
He picked up a handful of broken porcelain from the pile and put them on the table.
"Can you tell me what era these broken porcelain pieces are from, where they were made from, and what materials they were made of? I pay you based on your ability!"
A dozen people looked at each other and immediately formed a semicircle around the table.
Fang Quan spoke first, pointing at the porcelain pieces and saying in order: "Qing Xianfeng, Daoguang, Daoguang, Jiaqing, Republic of China, Guangxu, Republic of China, Republic of China, and the last three years."
Then there is the origin and materials.
"The ones from the Republic of China and the last three years are all local clay, and the others are probably kaolin from JDZ."
Fang Zongtang had a clear idea in his mind.
It should be uncertain. Both the Republic of China and modern times were analyzed based on the situation.
Even if you can’t figure it out, it’s okay if you can analyze it!
She replaced a few more pieces of broken porcelain, and replaced them every time she took the test.
Fang Quan's three sons misjudged three out of five pieces, misjudged Ming Dynasty pieces as Qing Dynasty pieces, and misjudged Republic of China pieces as modern times. They also relied on guesswork to determine the origin and materials.
Fang Li, Fang Ming and their two sons are in a similar situation to Fang Quan.
In other words, no matter how you study, you can tell from the exams.
There will definitely be a difference in the results between those who study hard and those who don’t.
You can tell who is an beginner and who is not just by the way they open their mouths.
On the other hand, Fang Yuan and his two sons were on par with Fang Quan in dating and restoration.
