Volume 5 Chapter 18 Sympathy
Overthrowing Di Xin is not like ordinary people say it, even if Ji Fa Gongzi has the same practical actions as our Dongyi people.
No, I organized a rebellion not long ago, but for inexplicable reasons, I was suddenly teleported to Dongyi, and it was not successful for the time being.
It doesn't matter if you fail, it's a big deal to start all over again, and more importantly, this probably shows God's attitude, he said, the Dongyi people need you, you also need the Dongyi people, you need to complete it together, so I will send you to Dongyi first to meet your brothers and unite them!
In the end, it's not the most shocking, it is said that Ji Fa actually invented a good thing to burn pottery in the past two days in the village, once that thing is used, the pottery that is burned is called a round, that is called a delicate, it is said that when the first piece was made, even the patriarch was dumbfounded on the spot!
In short, all kinds of news and legends have developed around Ji, and for a while, Ji Fa has become an almost household name genius of the Fengyi clan.
……
Of course, all this can't erase the credit of the patriarch, some of the means make Ji Fa a little dumbfounded, marveling that Jiang is still old and spicy, worthy of the patriarch This kind of treacherous old guy is extremely slick, all kinds of means are called a skillful, and there is no trace of artificiality, which makes Ji Fa open his eyes and secretly admire at the same time.
But then again, Ji Fa did not disappoint the patriarch, not only was he not idle, but also gave the patriarch a big surprise at the same time.
Staying in the Dongyi tribe, one day, Ji Fa saw the Yi people firing pottery by themselves, his hands itched for a while, and he turned his head and sharpened a pottery thing with a bronze short sword, in the original words of the patriarch, it was magical, and the patriarch who was indistinguishable from joy and anger was shocked and stupid on the spot.
Pottery is something used by almost every household of the Yi people, such as bowls, pots, jars, etc., and the pottery production of the Yi people has a history of many years, and it can basically be said to be a mature type of work.
But the pottery production process is very simple, has been pinched by hand, although will also use some small tools, but most of them are still completed by pure hand, pure manual production method of course can not be said to be a problem, the more delicate and expensive is the more manual participation, but for some fixed shape of pottery, such as round bowls, jars these pottery, pure hand is not so easy.
Of course, the skillful ones look good, and the poor ones are simply unbearable, and the craftsmanship of the first nine out of ten people is not very good, but although the appearance of these pottery is a little ugly, the fired things can at least be used!
The Yi people also have people who are specifically responsible for making pottery, but judging from Ji Fa's eyes, the output is really low, and it is good to be able to produce a batch of finished products in ten days and half a month.
But pottery is almost a thing that the Yi people want to use, plus the fired things are not very good, and they are extremely easy to break, so the output is far from catching up with the demand, in fact, there are many bowls and plates in the homes of ordinary people of the Yi people, which are luxury items.
Ji Fa's memories of his past life came in handy at this moment, and we wouldn't have advanced knowledge, but it was simple to learn from cats and tigers, and he remembered that there was a movie called What People Are Ghosts and Ghosts, and the pottery turntable on it left a deep impression on him, so he thought that he could imitate it, it doesn't matter if there is no motor, it can be a simple hand-cranked device.
Thus, a crutch and half a straw rope and a wooden roulette fixed in the center were born, and in this way, a simple but extremely practical hand-cranked pottery making tool was born.
Under the puzzled gaze of the patriarch and a group of potters, Ji Fa casually threw a lump of clay on the wooden roulette wheel, and then shook it with one hand, and the other hand imitated the action in the movie to fix the brush in a certain position.
In a blink of an eye, a rough round bowl pottery blank appeared, and it was not as irregular as the Yi people themselves handmade, the surface of the whole round bowl was smooth and neat, and the circle was extremely perfect.
Never-before-seen production tools, wonderful production methods, perfect finished products!
Not to mention how depressed the pottery makers were when they saw this scene, even the patriarch's eyes lit up, and he exclaimed again and again, how did he come up with such a smart idea.
Ji Fa was originally something that he did on a whim, but in the eyes of the patriarch, this hand made him happier than defeating Evil.
Defeating the evil is only to better maintain his authority, to avoid the Fengyi tribe from becoming a slave of Chaoge City forever without thinking of resisting and enterprising, after all, this is only a beautiful hope, a false thing.
On the one hand, as the patriarch, although he doesn't like evil very much, but seeing him defeated by this outsider from Xiqi, the patriarch is still a little uncomfortable in his heart; On the other hand, it is also unknown whether this move will bring permanent peace or cruel blood to the Fengyi Clan, and we can only take it one step at a time.
However, this simple but practical crafting tool, once officially used, will undoubtedly bring great benefits to the Fengyi clan.
Dongyi is the largest producer of pottery in the world today, a large part of the finished products are not only for the use of the own people, the high-quality products are not only sold or dedicated to the court, but also some are also sold to other countries, for the Dongyi people in exchange for valuable food, utensils, etc.
If you want to hunt and hunt, you can't do it without weapons, you have to resist Chaoge, even less if you don't have weapons, Chaoge naturally won't sell weapons to the Dongyi tribe, and even bronze is strictly restricted from circulation, so the Dongyi tribe can only buy secretly from other countries, but how can it be done without money?
Originally, Dongyi was short of food, so it was impossible to exchange it for food. Now with this thing, a piece of pottery with excellent texture and workmanship can be made in the blink of an eye, and after greatly increasing the output, it brings real money!
Therefore, after the patriarch pondered repeatedly, his beard trembled with excitement, and he couldn't wait to praise Ji Fa to the sky.
was slapped by the patriarch's sycophancy, Ji Fa couldn't help but blush a little old, this thing was originally created on a whim, and there was no technical content, I didn't expect the patriarch to be so enthusiastic, but now I was a little embarrassed, but listening to the patriarch's praise, I couldn't help but feel a little fluttery, and even with this old guy who was originally a little annoying, it also became pleasing to the eye.
The patriarch praised Ji Fa, although Ji Fa was thick-skinned, but he couldn't stand it all the time, and he just took the opportunity to praise the patriarch for being so old in handling things, and he was worthy of being the head of a clan or something.
So in front of a group of guards and potters, after the two of them clapped each other for a long time, they suddenly felt a little funny, and they laughed together.
It was also in this process that Ji Fa and the patriarch used each other from the beginning, and later they had a bit of a taste of seeing each other and cherishing each other.
