Vol 2 Chapter 517: -Buy fire

The chiefs of the patriarchs offered to buy with currency. This was something that Ji Thief never expected. He didn't expect that when did these patriarchs get the hang of it?
Moreover, when they heard that these patriarchs said it was not bad for money, the thief Ji almost didn't say anything.
He looked at the patriarchs who had stopped Aniu anxiously, and said to his heart that it seemed that these old men still had a lot of money in their hands, and even the little words like not bad money were pulled out.
Since then, Ji Zei pretended to hesitate on the face: "But, if we have such a close relationship, I still want you to buy it and spread it out. Then it will become a lot of fire and I can't bear to give it away. I am not good to hear."
The thief Ji said this to the patriarchs on purpose.
It was almost as expected by the Ji thief. When he said this, one of these patriarchs was counted as one, and all of them said, "What's wrong? Warriors, the large mountain ranges are just our twelve tribes, all of whom are our own. Everyone can't always make you suffer, right? We have already taken a lot of money to build a house."
Other patriarchs also followed suit, and in the end, if Ji thief didn't agree, he would become a villain.
"It is precisely because we are not outsiders, that I don't want money to give to you old brothers. If it was someone else, I would have driven them out a long time ago." Ji Zei said deliberately.
"Warrior, what you said is wrong. We are all our own people. How can we always make our own people suffer? This is the case. Let's do what we said." , The patriarch Gaoshan said.
The thief heard the words and thought about it, and said that if he was more polite, he would be a little pretended, so he nodded with embarrassed expression: "I will accept the kindness of several old brothers, so let's How about trading in currency?"
The chiefs of the patriarchs were relieved when they heard this, and he laughed: "Yes, you can."
The thief looked back at Aniu: "What is the price of our fire store?"
Aniu was stunned for a moment, and said to his heart that all the fire folds in the tribe were provided for free? When was the price set?
But seeing Ji Zei winking at himself, he quickly understood, and said, "One hundred and fifty currency."
The other patriarchs couldn't help being shocked when they heard this, saying so high? This is fifty currency to buy a prey.
But on second thought, it is normal to set such a high level. After all, apart from the Lihuo tribe, no other tribe understands fire in the vast mountains.
Fire is a good thing, you can use it to cook food, or you can use it to keep warm.
Everyone couldn't help but feel a little happy when thinking about never having to eat raw food in the future, and being greedy and having to go to the Lihuo to eat rice.
At this moment, Ji thief spoke again: "One hundred five is too high. It's all his own. How about one hundred currency?"
When the patriarch heard this, he wanted to hold Ji Thief’s thigh and say good people. After cutting off fifty currency, can you find someone more honest than Ji Thief?
The patriarchs thought one after another.
After talking about the price of Huozhezi, Ji thief sat here, tapping the table with his hand, waiting for Aniu's answer.
However, for a long time, Aniu remained silent.
In the end, the beast-blood patriarch, who had a somewhat impulsive personality, couldn't help but ask: "Well, warrior, don't you let Aniu go get the Huozhezi?"
Ji thief: "···"
Looking back at the honest man A Niu, the Ji thief was a little speechless. If it were Usma or A Jie, he would have snatched up a crying act after he had said the price of one hundred.
When the time comes, these patriarchs will be embarrassed and must increase the price.
You know, Ji Thief’s intended goal is about 120, and as a result, he has made 20 less money now. Hey, what can you say?
But having said that, this Huo Zhe is not a very expensive thing. It can be sold for a hundred currencies. The reason why other patriarchs will buy it is because this thing is only available in the Lihuo tribe.
Although Lihuo's Huozhezi looks similar to those seen in the TV series, this thing is not made of roll paper, after all, Ji Thief does not have that qualification.
He just dried a kind of fallen leaves called velvet leaves, then added some flammable rosin, mixed with crushed charcoal, rolled up to make a stick, lit and extinguished, and covered it with a breathable clay lid.
When using it, just remove the lid and blow hard.
This is still somewhat similar to the Huo Zhezi of later generations.
"That Aniu, you go to the logistics department and bring the Huozhezi." Ji Thief said.
A Niu nodded and turned around.
After he left, the beast blood patriarch couldn't help asking Ji Thief and said: "Warrior, I want to ask you about something."
"Beastblood brother, just say it directly, we don't need to be so polite."
The beast blood patriarch thought for a while, and asked Ji Thief: "This is what Huozhezi is like, can it only be used once?"
The question asked by the beast blood is the key. You may not care what kind of it, but how many times it can be used is a matter of their relationship.
If you bought a hundred currency and bought a fire fold that can only be used once, isn't it a big loss?
Seeing that all the patriarchs looked expectant, Ji Thief smiled: "If a good fire book is used, it will normally be used for about three to four days. After all, if you want to ensure that they do not go out by themselves, you must keep them burning. Now, for three or four days, it is basically their limit. After the patriarchs have brought the fire folds back, they can open the upper lid, so that it won’t go out in the middle."
The patriarchs were a little relieved at first when they heard that it could take three to four days, but when they heard that the fire zhezi would go out by itself, they couldn't recognize the surprise and said, "Will it go out by itself?"
The thief nodded: "Of course. But under normal circumstances, as long as you don't touch the water and don't drop the flame on it, it's okay. After all, there is no such thing as fire that is so easy to control."
The patriarchs heard the words and said they were reasonable, and all nodded, indicating that they had remembered clearly.
It's just that everyone doesn't understand why the upper lid should be opened.
Regarding this, Ji thief has no choice. He can't tell everyone that without air, fire cannot burn.
In about twenty minutes, Aniu brought back Huozhezi with a few clansmen from the logistics department.
They put the rattan basket with the fire folds on the table, Ji Zei took out one, opened the lid, puffed up his mouth at the bright fire on it and blew a sigh, then, only saw the size of a thumb belly The flame burned immediately.
Afterwards, Ji Thief held up the burning Huo Zhezi and looked at everyone with a smile: "When you want to use fire, you just need to blow it as I did just now, it's that simple."
For a time, the patriarchs cheered: "It's amazing! I will try it too."
After speaking, they took out the fire fold from the rattan basket, opened the lid, and blew it vigorously.
When the flames jumped up, these patriarchs couldn't help but exclaim one by one.
It turns out that making fire is so easy.
"This is my improved method of making fire. Compared with the previous troublesome fire making process, this method is much simpler and more convenient. It's just that it's a little troublesome to make fire notes."
Seeing the expressions on the faces of the patriarchs, Ji Thief was afraid that they would regret it, and said quickly, at the same time, he did not forget to buy a wave of misery.
The patriarchs weren't the people who turned back. Besides, this thing is only owned by the Lihuo tribe, and even if you regret it, there is no other place to find it.
"That warrior, how can this thing be extinguished?" The beast blood patriarch scratched his head, raising the Huozhezi in his hand and asked Ji Thief.
The thief said, "This is simple."
As he said, Ji Zei picked up the lid made of clay, blocked the opening of the lid with his index finger, and buckled the firefold, saying, "It's that easy."
Immediately, Ji Thief took off the lid, and the fire was extinguished, only the fire was still flashing.
The patriarchs were overjoyed when they saw this, and they tried their own.
Ji Zei looked at the crowd with a smile in his arms.
"Warrior, how about I buy ten first?" Chief Lin turned his head and asked Ji Thief suddenly.
As he said that, for fear that the thief might have misunderstood his stingy, he quickly said: "I will buy these first and bring them back to try. Next time, I will definitely buy more."
The thief nodded and smiled: "Of course, how much you buy is your own preference, brother."
The other patriarch heard this: "We also buy ten."
