Seeing that the two of them didn't take it seriously, Zhou Yisheng gradually let go of his worries.
He's here, no matter how much he does...
to be honest.
This journey could fill an entire adventure diary.
Walking to the foot of two mountains, we did see clusters of houses in the valley, and some were indeed living in caves. However, there were also many houses and thatched huts under the valley. The overall scale was completely different from that of the other three tribes.
The remaining three tribes are villages, and Hyena is a completely superior town.
finally……
The three were discovered by tribesmen.
Delia and Dan, who were not afraid at first, immediately became serious. Delia told Zhou Sheng: "Don't talk, just stand still. Leave the rest to us."
Zhou Sheng's heart suddenly rose...
mmp, what did you say just now?
Isn't it okay?
Why are you so serious now?
I saw Delia and Dan, with their hands crossed and covering their chests, speaking slang that Zhou Sheng could not understand.
When the tribesmen saw the three of them, they were the first to be startled. After seeing their actions, they smiled, negotiated with their companions, walked up, and began to negotiate with Delia again.
After saying a dozen words, the people from the Hyena Department were as enthusiastic as meeting their relatives far away. They took the three of them by the arms and led them into the valley.
Zhou Sheng was confused: "What's going on? What did you say to make them so happy!"
"Fake, I don't know either, Delia just said we came from outside!"
"The other party immediately asked why we were here again, as if they knew us... and then took us to meet the chief and elders to prepare for a banquet."
After Dan said something, he and Zhou Sheng stared at each other with big eyes.
Delia was silent for a while and said: "I'm afraid they understood something wrong. Maybe outsiders did come and became their friends. They mistook us for those people."
"Then what should we do? What if we meet the chief, will it happen..." Zhou Sheng said fearfully.
"No, don't worry. Since you have met outsiders, it means they are tolerant. When the time comes, they will show you how to deal with them. In short, you'd better stop talking and moving..."
Zhou Sheng was dumbfounded, am I moved?
I really don’t dare to move!
Come to the valley.
The situation of the tribe is reflected in the fundus.
It turns out that the thatched houses in the valley are not residential houses, but thatched sheds for raising cattle and sheep.
Just looking at it, the three of them were surprised. There were hundreds of cattle and sheep at least. The cattle were a minority, but they still accounted for a quarter. The whole tribe looked prosperous and happy, and the children were chubby.
The adults are also strong and healthy.
Good food is a major factor in health.
Go all the way up to a large cave in the middle of the valley.
A sense of seeing the 'Mountain King' in Journey to the West came to him. Zhou Yi almost thought that the Golden Horned King and the Silver Horned King would appear next moment, but in the end he was disappointed.
Six or seven old people appeared accompanied by a strong middle-aged man, who was the chief of the tribe, and the rest were elders.
As soon as the two parties met, the other party immediately recognized him——
"You are not Powell's people!"
Dan was translating in a low voice, and of course the negotiation work was left to Delia, who had the best slang.
Delia immediately said: "But there is no harm in our coming."
She did not directly deny it, nor did she pretend to be her identity. It was a roundabout way of contact. When the other party heard this, she seemed to have thought of something: "You are here for the gold too?"
Gold?
At this time, even Delia was a little unable to react.
The chief smiled and took out a gold coin from his belt: "Perhaps you have heard something, but unfortunately, Powell has taken away most of the gold, and now there is only a small bag left, which I left as a
commemorate."
"If you want it, then fine... If there are those magic pills, I can give you these gold coins."
The more I talk, the more confused it becomes.
Delia took a deep breath and planned to confess.
But before she confessed, she took the lead in admitting that she had the 'pills' they wanted, which were anti-inflammatory drugs and antibiotics. With these things, the tribesmen would at least not be ill-willed towards them.
When he took out the pills, the chief laughed and quickly asked someone to bring a small cloth bag.
When the bag was opened, the golden coins almost blinded the three of them...
The three of them couldn't come to their senses for a long time, until the other party handed the bag to their hands.
Delia looked at it and didn't know why.
Dan, on the other hand, frowned and said: "The words on it are in Portuguese, but it was cast not long ago. It may have been cast in modern times. Many gold mines were discovered in Ankabin..."
Things are getting more and more confusing.
But at least the three of them received preferential treatment from the Hyena Department because Delia took out all the Western antibiotics she brought this time.
The banquet will start soon.
The fat and tender mutton is grilled in the cave...
However, the smoke produced by the campfire was completely discharged out of the cave due to the siphon reaction, and it did not feel pungent at all inside the cave.
At this point.
Delia began to trace the cause and asked about the situation of the Hyena Department and these gold coins.
And the answers the three of them got became more and more surprising...
These gold coins are only a small part.
No, to be precise, it's not even a small part, it's just a random handful picked out of twenty boxes. It was found by the Hyena Department while hunting in the jungle, and later they were all dug out.
Primitive tribes did not have much use for gold, they only used it to carve some ornaments.
For the carvings, half the box was used, and the rest was preserved.
later.
A team arrived and searched the place where they originally dug, and were discovered by the hyenas.
At first, there was a fierce confrontation between the two sides, with guns and spears and bows and arrows, but the result was that the hyena tribe won a complete victory and captured everyone at the cost of one life. As former warriors, the jungle is their best battlefield.
.
Don't be surprised.
All modern troops have no good solution against jungle natives.
There have been countless battles around the world that illustrate this situation.
When the Hyenas were about to execute the men, the men spotted the Hyenas, wearing gold jewelry, and the execution was stopped... because they made a deal.
These people were willing to trade their young cattle and sheep for their gold.
This is also the reason why the hyena tribe stopped plundering other tribes. When those people carried the cattle and sheep calves to the jungle in batches, the hyena tribe no longer had to worry about food and clothing, and only needed to raise these livestock.
The price paid was twenty boxes of gold in exchange for more than 300 young cattle and sheep.
When it's all said and done.
The three of them were filled with shock and were speechless for a long time.
The bag of gold coins in his hand already shows the quality and value of gold. Although the purity is not top quality, it is still 90% gold content. However, such a bag weighs one pound.
What is the concept of a pound of gold?
5yiyi grams, according to the market price, including depreciation fees and purity differences, this batch of gold can also reach the domestic currency reserve price of 2yiyi yuan per gram, which is just the reserve price.
A total of one hundred thousand, which is about fifteen thousand US dollars.
The other party exchanged more than 300 cattle and sheep for millions of dollars worth of high-purity gold.
The Hyena Department suffered a huge loss.
But even so, Delia and Dan did not dare to tell them, lest these people become angry and vent their anger on them.
Therefore, let the Hyena Department live in joy forever, and the mysterious Mr. Powell may never set foot here again in his life. It was originally a one-time deal.
After she calmed down a bit, Delia explained her purpose of coming and planned to help them with future circumcision surgeries and patient treatment.
The hyena chief's reply was decisive: "Yes, even if you rely on pills, some bad things will happen during circumcision."
This is the benefit of having relevant experience.
Having been influenced by foreign things, the chief of the Hyena tribe understands the magic of outsiders.
But Zhou Sheng was no longer concerned about taking over the issue of circumcision.
But...
"Dan, tell me, where can there be so much gold in these deep mountains and forests?"
Dan thought for a while and said: "I have probably heard that when Ankabin became independent, two factions fought, and the losing party fled into the jungle. Perhaps they temporarily buried it when they left. Later, they tried to come and get it, but were killed by the hyena tribe.
Show up in advance."
The words fell.
Zhou Sheng was a little dizzy and his eyes pointed.
It's not because of the drinks at the banquet, but...
Hearing this, he felt a sense of déjà vu.
Gold, the defeated party, absconding...
"Is it possible that what Osas said is not a lie?!!!"
