Inheritance of Two Trillion

Chapter 1326: Chapter 1241: Supernatural Being, Li Ni_3

Lin Weiwei and Lei Ying also looked over.

If Li Ni’s ability was already so strong back then, wouldn’t it be even more invincible today!

”These two years, not a single finished product,” Li Ni answered very straightforwardly.

Bai Xiaosheng and the others were momentarily stunned.

Could it be that Li Ni hasn’t made any zisha teapots in the past two years?

Wouldn’t his skills become rusty?

That can’t be, with Li Ni’s love for this line of work, could he really hold back from making them?

Bai Xiaosheng wondered.

”Since I bought the workshop and started dedicating myself to studying the craftsmanship, I made a vow that unless the clay material is perfected, I would not make a finished product. Every time I reached the raw shaping stage in teapot-making, I would destroy it,” Li Ni sighed, ”This is also a way to atone to the master artisans of the past, after all, I followed this wrong path out of desperation to make a living and deserved to punish myself.”

”As for my workshop, in fact, it hasn’t done a single business transaction,” Li Ni said with a smile.

Bai Xiaosheng and the others were speechless, but they truly admired him!

Perhaps, only someone as self-disciplined as Li Ni could really reach such a high level of skill.

The so-called craftsman spirit is actually more about being true to the world and to oneself...

Coming out of the basement, Li Ni sent Bai Xiaosheng and others back to their residence.

”Tonight I’ll need to take two sedatives, or else I won’t be able to sleep. After all, the final raw material will arrive tomorrow morning!”

At the hotel, Li Ni even joked with Bai Xiaosheng.

In reality, he wouldn’t do that.

After all, maintaining a clear mind is a prerequisite for starting work, and the aftereffects of sedatives are too strong.

”Xiao Hongni also arrived today, and I have assigned it to my assistants for preliminary processing. Don’t worry, those tasks are simple, and they are all meticulous people, there won’t be any mishaps,” Li Ni continued, ”Also, the suggestion and formula proportions your friend gave, I studied them last night, and true to being a researcher, technology is not trivial. They are much more precise than what I had formulated myself, and I have decided to use that ratio.”

Li Ni is a person with persistence and can accept advice from others.

Bai Xiaosheng nodded with a smile.

”Then, see you tomorrow!” Li Ni finally bid farewell to the three.

After sending off Li Ni, Lin Weiwei exclaimed in admiration, ”Who would’ve thought that a master was right beside us, and still so young. Xiaosheng, you’ve really stumbled upon a treasure this time!”

Bai Xiaosheng laughed and teased, ”Actually, I am a master too, you know. I personally handle the line etching, carving, and sculpting of the zisha teapot!”

Bai Xiaosheng’s eyes shone brightly.

With Red Lotus’s assistance and his full devotion, there surely will be a good outcome!

A night without words.

The next day, in the morning.

Bai Xiaosheng and the others arrived early at the ”Li Ni Workshop” to meet with Li Ni.

In eager anticipation, the final material arrived!

A few Europeans in suits and leather shoes delivered it, weighing a full ton.

Bai Xiaosheng instructed, and Kevin arranged for people to find the soil as quickly as possible, pass all the checks swiftly, and send it over by chartered flight right away.

After settling in the people who delivered the materials, Li Ni anxiously unwrapped the package.

As his hands touched the soil, he carefully pinched the soil grains with his fingers, observing the sheen and feeling the fineness.

In front of all the employees in the workshop, Li Ni’s throat bobbed up and down, and after a long moment, he managed to squeeze out two words.

”It’s it!”

Suddenly, the men and women in the workshop, led by Chen Yundi, were all boiling with excitement.

Next, Li Ni instructed to lower the workshop gates and began soil blending.

Li Ni personally conducted the clay-making process.

Main materials: purple clay, Xiao Hongni, and the new soil as supplementary material.

Traditional procedures, like clay refining, require multiple operations including natural fermentation, grinding, sifting, soaking, drying, and pounding.

With Li Ni’s research, the process only increased in steps, not decreased.

Traditional tools such as stone mills were replaced by more advanced machines, the advantage being a more ideal treatment result.

The day before, Bai Xiaosheng had teased Li Ni, ”If it’s not made with stone and wood tools, it’s not 100% handmade, and such refined clay has no soul.”

Li Ni had scoffed in response, ”In ancient silk craftsmanship, whenever it reached its peak, it always accompanied the introduction of new machines and new techniques. Otherwise, let them try using silk-weaving looms from the pre-Qin era. To do good work, first sharpen your tools!”

Li Ni respected ancient methods but did not shy away from modern machinery, embracing both. This was also one of the reasons Bai Xiaosheng appreciated him.

Using Li Ni’s unique special method of clay refining, it took another two days before he officially began work.

Bai Xiaosheng also took part himself.

This pair of brothers cleared the second floor specially, forbidding others from entering. Even food was to be left at the door.

Facing the ”long-awaited” clay material, Li Ni couldn’t help but press his fingers and twist his neck, giving Bai Xiaosheng a beaming smile.

”Next, you’ll witness the making of a legend!”
