This row of big iron pots next to the heat is too hot, it doesn't take long to roast us to sweat, we don't dare to stay here for too long, if we don't replenish the salt water in time to drink, it is easy to cause dehydration, and the group sat down to rest next to the wooden table and wooden chair on the edge of the oil depot a hundred meters away from the oil pot.Nearly 800 barrels of corpse oil were placed in a temporary warehouse made of wooden planks, and dozens of empty barrels were scattered outside the warehouse.Dozens of gray dwarf slaves sat in the open space in front of the warehouse, each holding a sharp file in their hands, and little by little, they were breaking the sternum left by the Corpse King from the ribs to make a bone shield, as long as a layer of Corpse King's skin was covered on this bone shield, such a bone shield was light and strong."
What does the owner want to make a deal with our brother?"
Kutz sat down and asked straight to the point, and when he saw Horsens keeping his eyes on the oil drums in the warehouse, he asked, "You want to trade iron ingots for corpse oil?"
Isn't this something that can only be used by magic apothecaries, except for making fire bullets?
Or, as Jia thought, you think the orcs of Gruudin would be willing to buy such a stove?
”At this time, Kuz's maid Asakusa carried a set of cups and a beast girl, and brought the oil stove outside my tent, which was a vertical oil stove 60 centimeters high and about 30 centimeters in diameter, and it seemed that the beast girl carried it easily, she put the oil stove in front of my feet, skillfully lifted the iron shell lid, unscrewed the regulating valve, lit the fire with a flint, and finally placed the kettle on the stove polished like a lotus flower, and waited quietly for the water in the pot to boil."
Why not?
This thing looks very convenient, not all wasteland people like it, and waste a lot of time behind the herd of one-horned bison, picking up dry cow dung to cook.It's just that I'd love to know the price of corpse fire oil, if this oil stove is as expensive as those luxury goods shipped from the Grimm Empire, not many orcs can afford it!
”Horsens looked very carefully at the fire burning on the stove, and his eyes showed an eager gaze.I looked at the oil stove in front of me and said slowly, "Such a poorly made oil stove is worth about three silver coins.If you do it carefully, the cost will never be higher than five silver, and the inner tank of this oil stove is full of corpse fire oil, and I have tried to boil water with this kettle, and it can be boiled almost a hundred and fifty times.This means that "before I could finish my sentence," said Horsens, "if you cook only two meals a day in the wasteland, then an oil stove can last for two months when it is filled with grease."
It's enough for people to hunt once, but the first thing I know is, how many silver hammers are you going to sell for this thing?
”"Ten silver!"
Kutz and I looked at each other and spoke to Horsens."
So cheap?"
Horsens said with a solemn face.No one knows what kind of chain reaction will be brought about by so many corpse fire oil entering the market of the orc tribe, but Kuzi and I have been preparing to develop the convenient cooking utensils made of corpse fire oil in the direction of slum from the beginning, which is also where we have been arguing the most recently, whether to maximize the profits, or to win the reputation of letting this convenient and fast oil stove into the lives of ordinary orcs.In the end, we set the price for 10 silver bells.Ten silver bells are equivalent to half a month's salary for an adult orc, which is also a lot of expenses.But for the orcs who walked into the wasteland alone, as long as they could try their luck to hunt a demon antelope or wind wolf, the capital or everything would be recovered, even if they didn't hunt these low-level magical beasts, they could meet a few rare magic herbs in the wasteland.Speaking of which, our corpse fire oil is almost useless, and hunting these swamp zombies is just something that the Raitu tribe has to do in order to survive.So all this time, why didn't any orc tribe be willing to refine corpse fire oil?
The main reason is that there is a very high risk of catching swamp zombies, and many orcs are reluctant to set foot in the swamp of death.It is also because this is a very dangerous area, and the undead creatures in it are very troublesome to kill, even if some people know the method of refining corpse fire oil, they will eventually have no way to carry the corpse fire oil out.And in the end, he gave up and just took the magic core inside the swamp zombie skull.Not to mention the orc tribes on the edge of the swamp, ordinary orc warriors have no way to resist those ghost killer death scythes, if these tribal chiefs have the formula for corpse fire oil, if they are crazy and insist on driving the orcs in the tribe to hunt for swamp zombies in the swamp for the sake of those corpse fire oil.Then it will bring a disaster to this tribe.This recipe was given to Kig by Elder Mayana, the orc wise man who walked on the wasteland and guided the displaced orcs on how to survive, after discovering that Kig was a magician, he decisively gave the formula of corpse fire oil to Kig, I think Meyana must have thought that Kig had the ability to hunt those swamp zombies, maybe even if Kig had no way to deal with those swamp zombies, but as a magician, she must have a group of powerful people behind her who could deal with these swamp zombies.Killing swamp zombies, even if Kuz and I were very well prepared at the beginning, it actually paid a considerable price, and it was with the help of Viru and Jonbach that the Raitu beast female warriors in the tribe gradually built up their confidence and gradually figured out some ways to kill swamp zombies.The most important thing is that we have the means to restrain the Death Scythe, and now that the orc warriors encounter the Death Scythe, they will not have much fear.Those fears were born of ignorance, and by the time we killed sixty or seventy Death Scythes in a row, our mystery had been revealed.Therefore, for us, corpse fire oil is not such a rare thing, even if it is difficult to buy in the market now, but we do not plan to do a unique business of strange goods, my idea and Kuz are to try to spread the market, which is also a measure to improve the quality of life of the orcs, just like the orcs already have their own ability to make salt, these are all things that promote the progress of the orc tribe, and speaking of which, corpse fire oil is also a low-level strategic material, it is the main ingredient of fire burn bombs.I smiled and said to Horsens, "The owner of Horsens is interested in corpse oil?"
”At this time, the kettle boiling on the oil stove "Zizizi" rang non-stop, a cloud of white water vapor sprayed out from the spout, the kettle lid was beating happily, Horsens lifted the kettle from the oil stove behind him, poured the wooden cups on the wooden table one by one, and said with a sigh: "No one dared to think that one day everyone would sit together."
Use the fat from the bodies of these ferocious beasts in the swamp to boil water and make tea, but now it all seems to have become a reality!
”Horsens said with emotion: "This is a good thing, not all orcs like those raw jerky, and this business is not difficult to do."
To be honest, according to the price customized by your brothers, this kind of oil stove is definitely not sold, and I am a little late to say that I want to join in?
”I glanced up at Kuz and motioned for him to come forward.Kutz is also not hypocritical.said directly: "If the owner wants to buy and sell this corpse oil, no problem."
Jia's plan and I are that we will simply sell corpse fire oil, and as for Jia Ta, all we have to make such an oil stove is just to find a new market for so many corpse fire oil!
”Pointing to the mountain of oil drums in the warehouse, Kuz explained, "After all, even if you make a fire bomb, there is a limit, and we can't expect to be hung from this tree."
Now we can be regarded as cooperating, the owner of the Horsens field, you produce the oil furnace, and we produce the corpse fire oil, I don't think it is as good as this.Let's add two to five.As for the first plan, this can hold seven liters of corpse fire oil, our Layitu tribe is responsible for the corpse fire oil, you are responsible for the oil stove, an oil stove full of seven liters of corpse fire oil, we will sell it for ten silver rings, and we will be responsible for the final filling and sales. ”Kutz said this is actually just a big circle, a set of finely made oil stoves will cost close to five silver rings, after such an oil stove is sold, we and Horsens half a penny.It happened to be a five-silver family, which was almost no different from Horsens selling the oil stove directly to us.Horsens' face was a little ugly, but in fact, it didn't matter if the business was done or not.Buying and selling is not benevolent, but if you are played by someone as a fool, no one will feel comfortable.Now that Kutz has a big circle in front of Horsens, it makes Horsens very unhappy.Horsens is a very cultivated orc, if it is an ordinary quick-tempered orc, at this time he has already turned the table and left.But he was still waiting for Kuz's words later."
The second plan is that you provide the oil stove, and we will produce the corpse fire oil, but in addition, you need to be responsible for the sales and transportation in the orc tribe of the Pai Plateau at the same time, in this case, in addition to the cost of making the oil furnace, we will divide the profits from the sale of the oil furnace in half."
After listening to the first half of Kutz's words, Horsens' eyes were about to darken, but when he heard the final profit distribution, Horsens stared at Kurtz with wide eyes and asked busily, "Really?"
”"Would you like to hear the third option?"
Even if Kuzi speaks orc, the speed of speech is unhurried, and his voice is very thick, but on this occasion, it seems a little annoying."
Let's hear it!"
In fact, Horsens has basically decided to adopt the second way of cooperation with us, but he still wants to hear the third plan.Kuzi pursed his lips and smiled: "We will directly sell you corpse fire oil, one silver and two liters!"
”"Really?""
Really!""
I did it!"
Horsens stretched out his hand and raised it in the air, and said proudly.Kutz quickly stood up and reached out and slapped Horsens' palm, and the deal was settled.Horsens had been tired of driving and riding for several days, and at this time he had been wandering around the village with us for a long time, and when he sat at the door of the corpse oil storehouse, he was already physically exhausted, and now after saying the deal, although Horsens looked very tired, he was in a good mood, and after sitting for a while, he went back to the tent to rest.I sat in my chair and was filled with emotion for a while.At this time, Kuzi was still a little dizzy and couldn't wake up, and he asked me a little incomprehensibly: "Jia, you said that we would directly tell him one silver or two liters at the beginning, how simple and good it is to sell him corpse fire oil directly!"
Why did you have to go around such a big circle, and finally sell the corpse fire oil to him!
”I pursed my lips and smiled and said: "If we say at the beginning that we want to sell him corpse fire oil directly, it is estimated that this old orc will have to fight with us, and our corpse fire oil may not be able to sell it for one silver or two liters, you go around with him like this, tell him that we know the profit here, and then say our price, this guy doesn't even pay the price, and directly agrees!"
”To be continued.
