It may be an incomparable honor for others to formally appoint Ye Tao as an official of the Dongping court, but for Ye Tao, it is indeed punishment and torture. Whether to get a salary or not is second. After all, Ye Tao, who is a rich man now, will not take this salary to heart, but the complicated work has made him suffer. The Ministry of Works and the Ministry of War have had a lot of things to deal with in recent times, especially after the war, the restoration of several cities affected by the war, the adjustment of troops, the adjustment of troops, and the rectification of training and other matters. Zhuomang, who has not been able to return to Danyang, will implement a series of deployments on the front line. In Danyang, in the Ministry of War, the Ministry of Works, and the Ministry of Revenue, we must clarify the various relationships involved in the series of deployments made by Zhuomang, allocate the funds that should be allocated, mobilize the troops, and lead the promotion or demotion of the relevant documents and appointments, and participate in the implementation of

The opinions of the various armies of the war were summarized and the professional talents needed to repair cities in various places were allocated... and so on. Although there were special personnel to deal with a series of things, many documents were still passed by Ye Tao. As a general who was very familiar with the situation and a person who was very familiar with engineering affairs, there were many things that needed to be solicited. The work of installing cranes on the tops of all cities to deliver items was also required to spend a lot of time to train relevant officials of the Ministry of Works. In addition, the construction of the main building of the Iron City "Iron Fort" and the construction of the bell tower in Danyang New District has entered a critical moment, and he wanted to break himself into several for use. Fortunately, everyone was worried about the reply to the palm injuries he suffered and left a small tail, which was mainly to let him take on some paperwork without letting him command on the spot. He was still able to stand up.

Guan Yinhang was in the barracks, and the mosaic business was taken over by the Princess's Mansion. For some reason, this time, Tan Weixin actually asked Tan Weishi to be responsible for this business, and even Tan Weiran was sent to learn business. Such an arrangement really makes people unable to understand. Many people have begun to speculate whether Tan Weixin is going to hand over the stall of the housekeeper of the inner palace to her younger brother and sister.

Tan Weishi, who was holding something in his hand for the first time, was very excited. Since this was a land business that had never happened before, there was no ready-made business to refer to. Since there were only porcelain products now, although they could be divided into one-inch square mosaic tiles that could be used for parquet and ceramic tiles that could only be used for surface treatment of buildings, it was not until the end of the day whether it was to be used for porcelain or building materials. Tan Weishi discussed with some commercial experts in the inner palace for a long time, but there was no result. However, it was certain that he was not going to use the original sales channels of the butler. The master sent by the butler began to dig kilns and fire refractory bricks in the town west of Danyang City, and was preparing to establish a production base in Danyang. Although the Yun Kiln could only be fired in Baishi City, stable temperature control was conducive to the improvement of the quality of ceramic products. The blower and temperature control system designed by Ye Tao in Baishi City has become the standard equipment for this new ground kiln.

Although she hadn't figured out the business yet, Tan Weishi had grasped one point after all, that is, if there were any problems, she was right to find Ye Tao. But she didn't expect that the first thing she got into the state was Dai Qiuyan.

"Brother Ye, look at these porcelain pieces, the colors are different, can it work?" Although Dai Qiuyan didn't know much about technical matters. She knew nothing about the construction industry where her father was busy all day and was too busy to go home, she found something she loved - painting.

Originally, Dai Qiuyan wanted to learn to draw drawings with Sophie quietly. Although she was very patient and could help Sophie start to organize all kinds of drawings left by Ye Tao together, it was too hard and boring for a child like her.

However, when Dai Qiuyan saw the charcoal sketches of the landscape imaginations that Ye Tao was sandwiched in the architectural drawings, some schematic diagrams with more exquisite sketching techniques, and light color drawings made with few Chinese painting pigments nowadays, she seemed to have a clue. After pestering Ye Tao to teach her the whole set of sketching techniques, she was calm and presented with more exquisite details when she drew exquisite pictures. After all, Ye Tao was really not in the mood to lie in front of the easel for many hours, but for Dai Qiuyan, it was not a problem at all.

Except for being occasionally called by Tan Weishi or Huang Wan to attend a party of Guishu's famous socialite in Danyang, she almost never goes out. The time in front of the easel is so charming to her. After practicing for two years, now, the exquisiteness of Dai Qiuyan's sketching manuscripts often gives Ye Tao the illusion of black and white photos. This is still the case when there is only charcoal essence strips, rather than a series of pencils of different natures from 8b to 8h. Not just sketches, but in terms of color, Dai Qiuyan is also quite interesting now.

Dai Qiuyan was able to learn sketching and modern color theory from Ye Tao, learn current literati paintings from Huang Wan, who has a family history, and learn decorative art and animation theory from Kassandra. Although she is only fourteen years old now, her at a young age has already made many people in Danyang admire her. A bust of color ink painted by Dai Qiuyan for Huang Wan is now hanging in Situ Huang Xuping's study.

As soon as the mosaic entered the field of view, Dai Qiuyan found a batch of porcelain pieces and composed a few simple pictures. However, during the process of painting, Dai Qiuyan obviously found that the color of the mosaic is too unstable now, and often the color cannot be found. When large pieces of porcelain pieces of the same color are needed, the uniformity of the color of the porcelain pieces often does not meet the requirements.

After Dai Qiuyan put forward this opinion, Ye Tao deeply agreed. However, in this era, there is not even a standard color card, how to determine the color? Moreover, the color of the glaze used in the mosaic is different from the color presented after firing. It is necessary to go through a lot of experiments to configure the color you want as you wish.

Moreover, there are several colors that are difficult to obtain, such as blue and purple. In the dyeing and finishing workshop where Ye's workshop belongs, the main source of blue is cyanine, and purple, in addition to mixing and mixing, mainly comes from a kind of sea shell, and the process of lavender as dye is also being explored. However, these cannot be used on the glaze of porcelain fired porcelain that can only use mineral pigments. After a period of search and exploration, Ye Tao finally found a stable source of basic copper carbonate material, and then fortunately found a source of zirconium blue.

After these two mineral pigments, the pure and stable blue was finally solved. After several experiments, although the color determination work has not been completed, with the fixing of the glaze formula, at least the problem of color uniformity has been solved. Since purple is relatively rarely used in mosaic murals, Ye's Workshop is trying to collect various ores while testing various solutions. The problem of mineral pigments is very complicated. Zirconium blue or alkaline copper carbonate and the commonly used red pigment hematite are mixed and fired. The color is complex and difficult to describe, but no one thinks it is purple.

In order to make the mosaic chromatography complete quickly, Tan Weishi took out a reward and collected various ores that can be used as glaze. At the same time, she also used a lot of brains to persuade Danyang City to seize a screen wall in a small square in Danyang New District. This screen wall was originally planned to find someone to make a brick carving, but now it has become a mosaic for painting. The designer of the painting was Dai Qiuyan, and the content of the painting was the material that was more convenient to get, and there was a successful precedent. This high-standard mosaic painting will also use cloud kiln fragments as the material.

This is not anyone's idea, but Tan Weishi himself thought of it. Tan Weishi's quite advanced advertising awareness really surprised Tan Weixin and Ye Tao.

But as a result, the originally small mosaic business became a big deal. Seeing that his sister was doing something so attentively, Tan Weiming persuaded Wang Lan, the Minister of Works, and mobilized the Dongping National Ore Specimen Library that the Ministry of Works to make a lot of effort. It has to be said that the embroidered princess Tan Weishi has a good impression of everyone. The censors shut up this obvious behavior of public welfare and personal gain, and there was no clue. It made Tan Xiaopei, who was preparing to defend his daughter's business, very boring. But even so, it was still a big project to build the chromatography.

What else can mosaics and ceramic tiles do besides decorative functions? This is also the key. Those who can afford mosaics are all big families. The mansions of big families have certain rules, so it is impossible to make them colorful casually. When Tan Wei discovered this lack of practicality and complained to Ye Tao, Ye Tao smiled mysteriously and said, "Don't worry, I'm making something fun. When you finish it, you will know one of the uses of mosaics."

Tan Weishi went to Ye Tao's studio almost every day. She looked at the studio that was extremely neat and had nothing new for many days and said contemptuously: "It doesn't look like it. Do you help me? It's rare for my sister to give me something. How bad is it to mess it up."

Ye Tao smiled wryly and said, "Your Highness, you have to be conscientious. There are six technicians and twelve students in Ye's workshop. I don't know how many apprentices are helping you make chromatography and try out glaze. Qiuyan is helping you make murals. I don't know much about it. If you don't believe it, go to the Blood Qi Army's barracks with me and take a look."

"Military camp?" Tan Weishi said dissatisfied: "What should I get from such a far place."
