Celestial Master: I Have an Otherworld-Chapter 147 - 59: Younger Sister
When the first Square Porcelain store opened, Fang Zheng was not present at the scene. Wen Lei was quite displeased by this but only received a response that he had other matters to attend to.
What kind of matter could it be, that would make him miss the store opening?
The old Seven Miles Square Porcelain store.
Second floor.
The void rippled like the surface of water.
A figure holding a half-human-height wooden box appeared out of thin air. The figure habitually surveyed the surroundings, then placed the wooden box beside him.
"Click..."
Opening the wooden box, more than thirty pieces of porcelain came into view.
The majority were Thunder Walking Red Porcelain.
The blood-red porcelain covered with thunder patterns looked like exquisite works of art, transparent, pure, dazzling to the eyes, and shimmering with a faint halo.
Besides Thunder Walking Red Porcelain, there were also a few uniquely shaped porcelains in the box, along with several thick books.
Most of the porcelain was in beast forms.
Like a monkey-shaped earthen jar, snake-shaped plates and dishes...
As for the books, they were acquired by Fang Zheng through special, high-tier channels facilitated by the government office's clerk, and they all pertained to 'porcelain firing' techniques.
"Appreciation of Historical Porcelain", "Brief History of Beast Porcelain", "Collection of Treasured Porcelain from All Dynasties"...
The technique of firing porcelain in the Otherworld was not inferior to modern society, perhaps even stronger, because some porcelain firing required the use of magic.
The finished products after using magic were often extraordinary.
Like the Thunder Walking Red Porcelain.
Which required the power of Celestial Thunder to strike.
It's worth noting that the Wang Family was merely a porcelain-making family in the small place called Gu'an County, and was not at all remarkable in the Otherworld.
There must be many similar porcelain makers beyond just the Wang Family.
The most well-known and long-developed porcelain is Beast Porcelain, said to be capable of detaining the soul of wild beasts for personal use.
The porcelain, once formed, was lifelike and vivid.
"Somewhat similar to bone china, but more complex."
Fang Zheng flipped through and evaluated based on his own porcelain firing technique:
"Mixing the bone ash and fresh blood of livestock or wild beasts into the clay embryo, molded by artisans, and then burning it with magic techniques into a finished product."
"Huh..."
"There's really a Soul-Catching Spell."
Bone china,
refers to porcelain in which animal bone powder was added during firing, resulting in porcelain as thin as paper, white like jade, and resonant like a chime due to certain chemical reactions.
It was popular for a while, and even now, high-quality bone china remains expensive.
As for Beast Porcelain.
It is a specialty of the Otherworld.
It has various categories based on different beast shapes.
For example, Horse Porcelain, which is shaped like a horse, not only looks like a horse but also has bone powder and fresh blood of the horse added to it.
With the addition of some mysterious methods, after forming, it resembles a living creature.
This is a widely spread firing technique in the Otherworld, and according to Zhang Mingrui, it originates from the evil demon's firing of Ghost Jars.
The Ghost Jar is a malicious magical artifact that entraps ghostly entities, releasing them to harm people when needed, a common practice among evil demons.
Later on,
at some point, beast porcelain appeared in the market, with a firing method similar to Ghost Jars, just replacing humans with livestock.
"The Imperial Court strictly prohibits magical artifacts from circulating among the people, and the act of Soul Capturing and Spirit Locking is detrimental to moral virtue, so beast porcelain in the market mostly does not involve magic."
"Even so, the development of beast porcelain firing to the present day is still remarkable."
Picking up the snake-shaped porcelain plate, Fang Zheng gently stroked its surface. This piece of porcelain cost him a full three taels of silver, definitely counted as a fine piece among porcelains.
Both the outer glaze and the inner embryo are exceedingly exceptional.
"No wonder it can stand its ground in the Prefecture City, it indeed has some merit, the top porcelain from the Otherworld is not inferior to Thunder Walking Red Porcelain."
"No!"
"It's obviously better."
"If it could be replicated..."
"Square Porcelain could have more products, though Thunder Walking Red Porcelain is good, having only one product doesn't look quite right in the end."
Setting down the snake-shaped porcelain plate, Fang Zheng carefully took out a miniature porcelain jar in the shape of an exotic beast.
"Treasure Porcelain!"
The Otherworld also has the concept of famous porcelain, but above famous porcelain, there is an even higher tier, which is the top luxury treasure porcelain.
Each piece that becomes a treasure porcelain is without exception, a finest among the finest.
The one in his hand is a treasure porcelain, he spent over a hundred taels of silver to obtain it, it could be said to be astounding.
"The dragon has nine sons, with Qiuniu being the eldest."
Gently stroking the protrusions on the surface of the porcelain, Fang Zheng murmured to himself:
"This exotic beast, is Qiuniu."
"The ultimate development of Beast Porcelain is Mixed Beast, combining various livestock and wild beasts' bones and blood to burn out the corresponding exotic beast porcelain."
"Truly remarkable!"
To be honest.
Though Thunder Walking Red Porcelain is good, he still worries about the obscurity, but if it's this kind of Mixed Beast porcelain, there's no need to worry.
Because even people who don't know much can see its excellence.
Compared with modern society's famous porcelains, the difference is even more noticeable.
"Worthy of being Treasure Porcelain!"
"If it could be replicated, Fang Porcelain's standing in the luxury porcelain industry should no longer be a problem."
"Beep beep..."
The phone's notification sound rang.
"Hello!"
"Boss Fang." Wen Lei's voice came from the phone, tinged with slight exhilaration amidst her fatigue:
"Yesterday's sales data has come out."
"Oh!" Fang Zheng raised an eyebrow. These days, he was busy with Beast Porcelain matters in the Otherworld, and didn't even return for the first store opening, so he was not aware of the sales situation. He couldn't help but ask:
"How much?"
"Two million!"
Wen Lei's voice quivered:
"Two large porcelain pieces half a meter high were sold, bringing in over a million, along with six smaller porcelain pieces each costing between twenty thousand."
"And there are a few reserved customers."
"Additionally, major influencers started uploading their videos yesterday, and Thunder Walking Red Porcelain has started to gain small-scale attention online."
