Chapter 261 Ignite!



Hearing what the two said, Zhao Hao was stunned: "What's going on? Are you so short of money?"

"Why didn't you say so earlier?"

Zheng Zhiqian said, "We were thinking that your crowning ceremony will be coming up soon, Brother Hao, so we wanted to wait until after your crowning ceremony to discuss this matter."

Zhao Hao nodded slightly: "So that's how it is, but that's not right, isn't there a dividend for dry wine every month now?"

"You didn't bring that money to use?"

Ever since handing over the first floor completely to Su Si, Zhao Hao has never asked about the situation there again.

The dry wine is still on its original scale at this time, with a daily output of about 100 kilograms, based on the selling price and the changed profit sharing ratio.

At the end of the month, there would be at least three or four hundred strings of cash.

Even if the purchase of materials has been very expensive recently, even if it is not enough, it should not be so tight.

Luo Bi said quickly, "Sir, it's like this. Because we have to organize your coming-of-age ceremony, Miss Su Si didn't put down the dry wine revenue this month."

Zhao Hao: “…”

It turns out it was my own fault.

Su Si was right to do so. If the mansion wanted to hold this coming-of-age ceremony successfully, it would definitely be impossible to rely solely on the parents' side.

Therefore, Su Si withheld the dividends from the dry wine.

Shaking his head helplessly, Zhao Hao said, "Okay, you guys hold on for a while, I'll find a way."

After hearing what Zhao Hao said, Luo Bi and Zheng Zhiqian felt relieved.

The three of them didn't drink too much, just a little tipsy, so Zhao Hao asked someone to help Luo Bi and Zheng Zhiqian to rest.

As for himself.

With his alcohol tolerance, it is very difficult for him to get tipsy, even with Wang Mengyu added.

The next morning, just after dawn, Luo Bi had already found two large vehicles and a dozen subordinates for Zhao Hao, and they were waiting at the gate of the steward's mansion.

Zhao Hao didn't sleep in either. He had a simple meal and then took his men to dig the soil in a horse-drawn carriage.

It was almost noon when he left the imperial farm and returned to the mansion with kaolin. Lao Zhong also bought back all the bricks, stones and coal.

After having all the soil moved to his yard, Zhao Hao immediately directed Lao Zhong to take people to build a porcelain kiln according to his requirements.

Such a big commotion on his side immediately attracted his mother Qin Shuyun, cousin Qin Ming, cousin Qin Huairu, and two other little ones.

As soon as she came up, Qin Shuyun got angry and pinched Zhao Hao's ear.

"What are you crazy about, you little brat?"

"You want to tear down the house, right?"

"Your coming-of-age ceremony is just a few days away, and you don't even want to do any serious work!"

Zhao Hao grimaced in pain and begged for mercy repeatedly.

"My lady, please be gentle, my ears are going to fall off..."

"It's really going to fall..."

Qin Shuyun snorted, "Tell me, what are you doing now, kid?"

Zhao Hao hurriedly said, "Mom, let go first, and I'll tell you!"

Seeing him being humiliated, Qin Huairu quickly advised: "Aunt, please let my cousin go. How can he reply like this?"

Qin Shuyun heard this and snorted, "For Huairu's sake, I'll let you go first!"

Having said that, he let go of his hand.

While rubbing his ears, Zhao Hao quickly looked at Qin Huairu and said, "My cousin is really beautiful and kind!"

Seeing him hissing in pain, Qin Jingru couldn't help laughing and chuckled.

Feeling Qin Shuyun's unfriendly gaze, Zhao Hao hurriedly said, "Mom, I'm not kidding, I'm doing something big."

"Besides, His Majesty personally instructed me to do this."

Qin Shuyun was immediately shocked and asked, "What? Did His Majesty ask you to do this?"

Zhao Hao laughed: "Of course, would I dare to falsely convey the imperial decree?"

Qin Shuyun couldn't help but cough twice in embarrassment, then said: "Okay, okay, since it's His Majesty who asked me to do so, I won't ask any more questions."

After saying that, he glared at Zhao Hao fiercely, then turned and left the courtyard.

Qin Huairu and Qin Ming also wanted to know what Zhao Hao was going to do.

However, since Zhao Hao even brought up the Empress, he suppressed his curiosity, stopped asking questions, and followed Qin Shuyun.

But the little girl next to him came over and asked.

"Zhao Hao, what does His Majesty want you to do? Are you trying to deceive your aunt?"

"Why would His Majesty let you do the work of a bricklayer?"

The little girl's big eyes flickered and she looked at Zhao Hao without blinking.

Zhao Hao immediately said angrily: "Go away, you are just a kid, don't ask questions that you shouldn't ask, okay?"

The little girl pouted immediately: "If you don't want to tell me, then don't tell me, as if I really want to know!"

After saying this, he walked away arrogantly.

Qin Zheng was the last one to come. He walked up to Zhao Hao and whispered, "Cousin, if you don't want to tell them, why don't you tell me quietly?"

"I won't tell anyone!"

Zhao Hao rolled his eyes immediately: "Go away, let your kid know. There is no need to wait until night. I am afraid that all the ants in the mansion will know about it."

What is this kid thinking about?

Seeing him say that, Qin Zheng snorted immediately: "Humph, if you don't want to tell me, then don't tell me, as if you really want to know."

After saying that, he left with his hands behind his back.

Zhao Hao was speechless for a while and was too lazy to pay attention to the two little things. He continued to direct Lao Zhong and the servants to build the porcelain kiln.

On his side, he led people to screen kaolin.

After five days of preparation, all the preliminary matters were finally completed.

Zhao Hao carefully placed the ten objects into the kiln.

These ten objects include two teacups, two bowls, a brush washer, two plates, two wine jugs and a vase.

Generally speaking, they are small items.

There was only one big vase, but it wasn't too big, only about twenty centimeters high.

Although he had already gone through the entire process of firing porcelain when he was writing the time-travel book in his previous life.

So now it’s easy to get.

However, after all, this was the first time in this life, and he didn't dare to be too arrogant.

It’s better to be cautious.

In the first kiln, fire ten small pieces first.

Even if it fails, the impact will not be significant.

After the kiln is sealed, the fire is officially lit.

Old Zhong asked, "Master, if you want to use pottery, why don't you just buy some from outside?"

"Why go to all that trouble to make it yourself?"

“This is too bad!”

Zhao Hao immediately glared at him fiercely.

"You old thing, you know nothing. Just do whatever the young master tells you to do."

"If you dare to talk too much again, I will sell you to Cuiming Tower immediately, believe it or not?"

Old Zhong immediately shook his head repeatedly: "Master, please calm down. I will never say anything more..."

Zhao Hao snorted.

This old guy's skin gets itchy every few days.

The kiln firing time does not need to be too long, and the ignition starts around dusk.

It burned until dawn and was finally completed.
