A Mouthful of Sky-high Fried Rice, Lao Tang Apprenticed on the Spot

"It should, it should."

Li Yi stretched out his hands, shook his hand, and asked with a smile: "The leader hasn't rested so late?"

Seeing that he didn't mention anything else, the middle-aged man smiled with a hint of approval, and then said with a smile: "Fortunately, it's not yet twelve o'clock, and I happened to see you saying that the things are ready, so I came to see if you can Take it back early so you can make plans earlier."

"The leaders have worked too hard and are still serving the people so late."

Li Yi gave a small flattery, then raised his hand and said, "Then let's take a look at things first!"

The middle-aged man also had this intention. He nodded and followed him into the factory.

"The factory has just been built and is a bit crude. Please forgive me, the leader."

Li Yi led him towards the warehouse.

The middle-aged man was noncommittal and just looked at the several pieces of equipment in the center of the factory with interest.

Seeing that the kiln mouth was still radiating high temperature, he raised his finger and asked: "Is your cloisonné fired from there?"

"right."

Li Yi smiled and said: "Real gold is not afraid of fire. If cloisonne is to be made into a weapon, it must be tested by fire."

"good."

The middle-aged man nodded with satisfaction.

Soon, the two arrived at the warehouse.

Zhang Haozhe stood nervously at the door of the factory. When he saw Li Yi and the others approaching, he quickly reached out and opened the warehouse door.

The packed gift boxes have been placed on the table. The exquisitely packaged gift boxes are in sharp contrast with the messy warehouse. Even in the chaos, they look even more exquisite and luxurious, like pearls that have fallen into the garbage.

The middle-aged man stepped forward, looked at it, and then smiled and said, "This box is good."

Li Yi picked up a box with a smile, handed it to him, and said with a smile: "The pearl is included."

"Ha ha!"

The middle-aged man was amused by him.

Li Yi said that the pearls were included, and he was obviously joking with the allusion of buying a casket for a pearl, meaning that the things inside were better than the box.

He smiled and stretched out his hand, took the gift box, and joked to Li Yi: "Then I want to see what the quality of your pearl is."

With that said, he held the handle and opened the gift box.

The gift box was opened, and the reward plate stuck on the sandalwood stand in the box appeared in front of him.

When he saw the reward plate, the middle-aged man's eyes narrowed and he said "Huh".

Putting the box on the table, he completely opened the lid and looked at it carefully under the light, looking a little more serious.

"This is Huang Gongwang's "Dwelling in the Fuchun Mountains"!"

He recognized the landscape painting on the plate and asked with some surprise: "Is this printed?"

"of course not."

Li Yi smiled and raised his hand: "You can touch and see, the materials are all raised."

When the middle-aged man heard this, he stretched out his hand to touch the lines of the landscape painting on the plate, and sure enough he felt ridges.

Seeing this, he was even more surprised: "Is this painted on?"

"Use a brush dipped in enamel to paint, and then it will be finalized after burning."

Li Yi briefly explained the method, then smiled and said: "The leader also studies landscape painting?"

"How can I not do research? I just often visit with foreign guests."

The middle-aged man smiled and said: "I may not recognize the more detailed paintings, but I still recognize this kind of national treasure painting."

"That's it!"

Li Yi nodded, and then opened the remaining gift boxes one by one: "Then these paintings should be familiar to you."

Looking at the gift box that Li Yi opened and the reward plate that appeared in front of him, the surprise on the middle-aged man's face became more and more intense.

After Li Yi opened all the twenty-four gift boxes, the middle-aged man couldn't help but sigh: "You have painted all the masterpieces of famous landscape artists!"

"The requirement given to me is to show traditional culture. Ink painting is definitely the most distinctive form of expression of Chinese culture."

Li Yi smiled and said: "But time is short, I just selected these twenty-four paintings based on the paintings I like. If you need to adjust, you can tell me and I will redo it."

"very good already."

The middle-aged man praised it, but he didn't make it clear that it didn't need to be redone.

After carefully viewing the twelve pairs of appreciation plates again, he was still praising: "Your craftsmanship is really amazing, and the copying is really similar. Mi Fu has the feel of Mi Fu, and Ju Ran has the taste of Ju Ran. If it were not on the plate, , I really want to think it is an authentic work."

"It's too much. No matter how similar it is, it's just parroting."

Li Yi said modestly and accompanied him with a smile.

After reading it once, the middle-aged man stood up with satisfaction.

Turning around and looking at Li Yi, he asked with a smile: "You seemed to have encountered some trouble the past few days?"

Hearing him take the initiative to ask this question, Li Yi felt relieved.

If he doesn't mention this matter from beginning to end, it means that the favor is over, and future dealings between the two parties will only be business-like.

But the fact that he took the initiative to mention this matter shows that there is still a chance of improvement.

Hearing this, Li Yi immediately thanked him: "Thank you, leader, for your concern. My matter has been resolved."

Since last night, all the comments that were originally criticizing him and Liu Yifei on the Internet have disappeared, and the comment areas of the two major platforms are in harmony.

After hearing Li Yi's answer, the middle-aged man nodded: "That's good."

After just saying a few words, he did not continue the topic, but said: "You have done a good job with these gifts. There will be many international conferences to be held in the future. In terms of gifts, we will have many opportunities for cooperation.

Enamel craftsmanship was introduced to China from abroad, and now it is reproduced in your hands as a gift to foreign guests. This is a perfect bonding gift, which is in line with the theme of our New Silk Road.

You have to carry forward this craft. This kind of craft that combines Chinese and Western skills is quite special. As long as there are no accidents, we will definitely continue our long-term cooperation.

Therefore, if you have any difficulties, just mention it to me. As long as it does not violate the law and is reasonable, I will help you solve it to the best of my ability.

but…"

As he spoke, he turned back to look at Li Yi with serious eyes: "If you do anything illegal or disciplinary, no one can help you, do you understand?"

Seeing that he was serious, Li Yi also became serious and said seriously: "Don't worry, leader, I am a craftsman and I rely on my craftsmanship to make a living. I don't understand laws and regulations and I won't do them.

I just want to work safely and not be bullied, and that's what I'm content with. "

Hearing what he said, the middle-aged man smiled: "Workers are the most glorious. As long as you work hard, no one can bully you."

Li Yi also showed a smile when he heard this.

It seems that the above-mentioned people still attach great importance to cloisonné craftsmanship.

With his words, Li Yi had a yellow mantle. As long as he didn't go too far, he could basically protect himself.

This is the benefit of having a craft. Professional technology is advanced productivity.

Even in prison, skilled people are treated better than ordinary prisoners.

If we could invent a brushless motor or something, even the death penalty could be reprieved.

Therefore, Li Yi also strengthened his idea again.

When training cloisonné craftsmen in the future, the most critical glaze formula must be firmly in hand.

At the critical moment, it is a life-saving amulet!
