Chapter 749 (1/2)
Ye Xi gave the white porcelain pot back to the chief of Gongtao and told them some knowledge of porcelain he thought of.
”Porcelain, like pottery, can be painted with patterns and patterns you like.”
”It can be done before or after the glaze process. What is painted before glaze is called overglaze color. Because the kiln is very hot, the color of the porcelain may change. You have to test it yourself to see which pigment is more heat-resistant and more suitable. ”
Now Xicheng's pigments are unprecedentedly rich.
There are mineral pigments from the stone tribe, plant pigments from the leaf tribe, and rare pigments ground by insects from the zhe tribe. Even the rare color purple is available. It is not difficult to make gorgeous porcelain.
”The color of underglaze color will be bright when it is fired, but it will fade after a long time. It has advantages and disadvantages with overglaze color.”
”In addition, you can work on the color of the glaze.”
Celadon is a blue glaze.
Ye Xi thought for a moment and added, ”by the way, you can also try to add some bone powder into the clay. The porcelain is called bone china, and the color will be very natural and clean snow white.”
”That's about it.”
He didn't know much about porcelain. Apart from the knowledge he saw in the textbook, all of them were pieced together everywhere.
For example, he didn't know how to make ice cracked porcelain. Jianzhan is also a kind of very beautiful porcelain, or pottery, which is as beautiful as metal color and changeable natural texture. He does not know how to make it.
However, for the primitive people on this land, pottery is already a very exquisite thing, and porcelain is far more exquisite than the times.
That's enough.
Pingyao excitedly said, ”yes, we remember it!”
The chief of industrial pottery, Pingyao and Nongyu heard that porcelain could play so many tricks. They were so excited that they could not wait to leave after ye Xi had finished his explanation.
After a few days.
Beer and rum are also brewed.
The winemaker came to Ye Xi with two kinds of wine.
They wait for the wine to come out, and then try to brew it several times before presenting the most perfect wine, so it's so slow.
Ye Xi raised his beer and looked down at the yellow and golden liquor.
I don't know why, but he felt that the color of the beer brewed by this wine was not the same as that of the previous life. The color was more brilliant and closer to gold. The appearance of shaking was reminiscent of the brilliant afternoon sun.
Ye Xiduan got up and took a drink.
The familiar bitter taste made him narrow his eyes.
”Not bad.”
He can feel it, because hops are allogeneic, and this wine helps digestion. Maybe drinking a glass of beer with low alcohol content after satiety will be a new hobby of Xicheng people in the future.
Yang Fu, the winemaker, was very happy and said with a smile: ”master Xiwu, give this wine a name?”
Ye Xi pondered for a moment and said, ”it's called Malt Bar.”
Beer is a transliteration of the name, it is not easy to explain the origin of the name, it is better to change it.
Yang Fu nodded and solemnly wrote down the name.
Ye Xi looked at the other three cups of wine.
Yes, there are three cups of rum. One is light carmine, one is deep orange, and the other is weird green.
Yang Fu explained, ”the wine made from sugarcane is too sweet because of honey and aphid. So it's better to add some sour fruit juice and flower juice. Would you try it?”
Ye Xi: ”too sweet?”
Yang Fu nodded: ”yes, it's very sweet. It's too sweet to eat.”
Ye Xi blinked.
He didn't know much about rum, but he didn't know if there were any other ingredients when he bought the rum according to the ingredient list of sugarcane distillate and honey. He also tasted rum and knew that the sweetness of rum was not as high as blueberry wine, and he didn't expect that it would be sweet.
Ye Xi picked up the cup and tasted it in turn.
The carmine cup is too sweet, but very fragrant, which is the kind of flower flavor that can not be described. After the liquor enters the throat, the fragrance still stays between the lips and teeth.
The orange red cup is sour and sweet. It has a kind of fruit flavor.
Although the green cup was strangely colored like poison, it was unexpectedly good to drink, and the large cup of Ye Xi was finished.
”Pretty good.”
Ye Xi boasted.
Because it is made of sugarcane and honey of different planting levels, this wine has the effect of detoxification, especially can detoxify insect toxoid, it is delicious and practical.
Yangfu was praised again, and his eyes narrowed with joy: ”master Xiwu, what are their names...”
