Chapter 137

In the following days, Song Daliang's kiln factory produced another batch of kilns. They still made blue and white porcelain. It was slightly better than the last batch; over three thousand clay blanks yielded only a couple of dozen pieces.

Zheng Quan received the news and made a point to tell Song Jiyun, also saying, "Everyone is discussing in private. Without an ace up one's sleeve, who would dare to operate a kiln factory? But with Song Daliang, it's not just a matter of having an ace up his sleeve, I'm afraid he lacks even basic skills. The ruffians in Jingde Town think even less of him, considering him an easy mark, and are scheming on how to swindle some silver from him!"

Song Jiyun was sitting under the warm autumn sun, designing the blue patterns on the tea set for Yuan Yunzhong.
