Is Zhu Ni's hand-pulled pot valuable in Chaozhou dialect?

Before the middle of the Qing Dynasty, the teapots used by hipsters were mostly from Yixing, Jiangsu, so they were also called Su pots, especially the small round pots made by Hui were the most popular among people who were affected with damp.

Hui was a famous teapot maker in Ming Dynasty. How can ordinary tea drinkers be qualified? In order to meet the "psychological needs", Chaoshan began to imitate the fashion of Chen Meng cans. Hipsters are very original, and imitation can be confusing. We all know that we are actually using a "fake version" of Su Can, but they are obsessed with the inscription "Chen Meng" or "Hui", whether you are a fake or not. There are also local brands, and few people care.

Because of a businessman's "accident", the teapot held by Chaozhou craftsmen finally stopped hiding. This man named Zhang is a businessman. Zhang traveled to Yixing, Jiangsu, and bought an authentic pot. After following him for decades, he didn't drink the tea brewed in this pot. One day, Mr. Zhang accidentally broke Chen Meng's treasure pot. The pain in his heart can be imagined, but he loves face very much and is afraid that this matter will spread to make people laugh. I had to ask the local pot maker to secretly make one for him and said not to tell anyone the secret. The master pot maker really made a so-called "Chen Meng" pot for him. He continued to use this pot to make tea and continue to show off with this pot.

Zhang was born in Chaoshan village. When I was a teenager, I pinched a teapot, and the "Su jar" could be pinched just right. I've been playing with other people's imitation "Chen Meng" pots all day, and I'm so happy. I want to try my own craft. So I started working at once. Hey, the "fake version of Chen Meng pot" was finally born in his hand! Comparing the two pots, I can't even tell the truth from the false. I'm so proud. Before long, he gave the fake pot to a foreign businessman. This man thinks he has a real Chen Meng, and he is very happy. Mr. Zhang also smiled happily and told the truth. Hearing this, the businessman was even happier. He said, It's not easy for an old gentleman like you to make such a delicate fake of Chen Meng. I must cherish it! As soon as the story spread, business friends rushed to ask him for it.

Chaozhou businessmen have always been polite in doing business. When Zhang is free, he personally scoops out mud to make a pot and gives it to his business friends. In his later years, he passed on the art of making pots to his second son, Zhao Zhen, and his third son, Zhen Mei.

The shopping mall has changed, and Zhang's other careers have stopped one after another, and idle things have become serious business. 1930, Zhang's "Yudetang" officially opened, and the history of making pots in Chaoshan turned a new page. Later, there were Yu Detang, Lao Family, Yuan Xingbing and Wu Family. I also printed my own store number. After more than half a century's exploration, Chaozhou kiln "Chen Meng" pot has gradually formed a set of technological process different from Yixing Zisha pot. Its biggest feature is that it is all hand-kneaded, and the material also comes from Chaozhou red mud, so it is called "Chaozhou Zhu Ni Hand-pulled Pot".

Zhu Ni's hand-pulled pot in Chaozhou dialect started from imitation and came step by step. Now it has developed its own brand and formed its own characteristics: bright red, delicate and cute. Chaozhou pot has begun to compete with Yixing pot for the market.
