Chapter 62 Transformation!(1/2)
Intuitively speaking, these things brought from Bangalore are small commodities that are inconspicuous in daily life. You can choose seven items for ten yuan, but will make you feel very inconvenient once they are gone.
Bangalash walked out, bumped his chest with his right fist, and then said a few words in the local dialect. Immediately, the men, women, and children onlookers dispersed in a hurry, cheered and hurried back, and then they
Then he came out with more people.
At this time, Fang Linyan discovered something strange. There were about two to three hundred people in this village, but most of them were women and children. There were very few mature men, no more than fifty, and less than half of them were disabled.
.
Bangalash walked to the pile of goods next to him, took a plastic basin, put two packets of salt, a soap, five packs of matches, a flashlight, and a dozen batteries in the basin, then placed it in front of the goods and said loudly
A few words.
Then each family sent a representative to come here to collect these things. Everyone who received them was very happy, and it looked like they were celebrating the New Year.
Even Fang Linyan saw that many people opened the bag of salt directly, dipped some crushed salt in their mouths and tasted it directly, and then their faces showed a look of relief. Some of them were more particular and even knew how to do it.
Dip your fingers in salt and give it to the children to taste.
The poverty and primitiveness of this place can be seen from this!
Looking at the smiles on these people's faces, Bangalash's indifferent expression seemed to melt a little, and then he directly handed over the supervision of the distribution of substances to another person.
He quickly walked up to an old man with wrinkles on his face as deep as a ditch, said a few words quickly, and the old man pointed to a house next to him---well, to be precise, it was made of thatched grass.
A shed is a more appropriate description.
After approaching this thatched hut, you can hear deafening snoring, and an unpleasant smell of alcohol blowing into your face. It is obvious that the owner has a good sleep quality, and the noise outside does not affect him at all.
Then Fang Linyan saw a fat black man with several scars on his body, which seemed to give him an extra fierce aura.
After Bangalash walked over, he frowned, picked up a basin of water next to him, pointed it at him and poured it over.
The fat black man immediately jumped up in excitement, and was about to curse, but when he saw Bangarash, he suddenly became more honest.
At this time, Bangalash said calmly:
“I have something to ask you, Mukla.”
Mukla laughed along with him and said honestly:
“Okay, okay, I don’t know what’s going on?”
Next, Bangalash told what Fang Linyan had described. Mukla listened very carefully. After listening, he called the two of them to study together.
The two people Mukla called were also "capable people" in the village. To put it simply, they were the smartest, boldest and wildest of the tribe.
They also felt the lack of material and inconvenient transportation among the tribes, and there were dozens of tribes, large and small, scattered in just a few hundred square kilometers of surrounding land.
So Mukla led his people and started to work as mobile traders. They rode a shabby motorcycle with unknown hands and carried three large backpacks, traveling among various tribes, purchasing special products, selling some daily necessities, etc.
This is also the reason why Mukla's life was obviously better than that of the rest of the people. Needless to say, the group of people he led must know the surrounding villages and tribes well.
Of course, the greater the profit, the greater the risk. Muklagan has been a traveling trader for five years, and only three of the six people who followed him are left. One died of illness, and the other two died at the hands of robbers.
Fang Linyan stood nearby and listened to their discussion without saying a word. Leaving professional matters to professionals is the basic quality of a successful person.
After a heated discussion among a group of people, we finally came to a conclusion.
The village that Fang Linyan is going to is probably Kadala Village.
This village is ninety kilometers away from here, of course, in a straight line! This place can be described as a Feng Shui treasure land, because the location of the village is really good.
The well in the center of the village is the famous fish spring. Whenever the moon becomes full, fish will rush out of it. This is undoubtedly a windfall.
Not only that, the cave behind Kadala Village also produces high-quality rock salt, which is also an additional income.
The thing of Yuquan sounds mysterious. In fact, it is related to the tide. Madagascar is the fourth largest island in the world. At full moon, the tidal power is the strongest, so the seawater is the most powerful inland.
When seawater pours back into the underground water veins, the freshwater fish in the water veins will of course be very unadapted to the ultra-salty seawater, which will be fatal to them!
So you have to find a way to run around, otherwise you will die. This is why there are fish jumping out of the well.
Of course, because of this, the village of Kadara has been abandoned several times, and will always be occupied by humans again in the end.
The final word was actually an old guy. After listening for a long time, he grinned with a toothless mouth and said:
“Don’t think about it, the village with the big olive trees is Kadala.”
Hearing his affirmative tone, Fang Linyan couldn't help but said curiously:
“How do you say this?”
The old guy laughed hoarsely, pointed at Bangalash and the others and said:
“At the earliest time, Kadala was settled there by the Bizmisaraka people. They also occupied Kadala for more than a hundred years, and even the name Kadala was given by them.”
“The Betsmisaraka people speak Turkish! And the pronunciation of Kadara in Turkish means huge trees?”
When the old man said this, Fang Linyan suddenly felt that his theory was irrefutable!
Aren’t you just looking for a village with big olive trees?
This village is called Dashu Village. The name is ironclad proof. What else is there to do?
Of course, it’s time to set off without further delay, especially since the weather is still very good at this time, and the morning sun has already shone down.
Under the warm hospitality of the tribesmen, Fang Linyan stayed here for a breakfast.
This breakfast was porridge made from cassava, with some fruits that Fang Linyan didn't recognize added to it. It tasted like corn dregs porridge.
However, Fang Linyan particularly likes the side dish that goes with the porridge. It may be difficult for people from other countries to eat, but for Chinese people, it is okay, that is, the deep-fried golden cicada.
Thanks to Master Xuanzang, golden cicadas are still very popular in China, and the golden cicadas here are particularly fat, and their method of making golden cicadas is also very special. They fry them first and then bake them.
It actually feels like my juices are exploding.
Fang Linyan enjoyed the meal very happily, but it also caused an estimated one-third of the villagers to be unable to eat in the morning, but the smiles on their simple faces came from the bottom of their hearts.
Because according to local customs, it is a kind of honor for guests to eat what they have brought out, and it will make the host feel proud.
However, Fang Linyan is also a person who can reciprocate favors. Of course, he will not let a group of children and women starve for his own reasons. After eating, he directly borrowed the tribe's cauldron, and then boiled a large pot full of water.
Then, Fang Linyan took out a big bag of something! This thing is the sweet spring of office workers, the gospel of code farmers, and the last hope of overtime workers... It is XX brand Laotan pickled cabbage food substitute!
Fang Linyan put in the noodles and spice packets one after another, and the unique aroma of instant noodles came out. A large number of black children stopped crying, stared straight at it, and their nostrils kept shrinking.
Then Fang Linyan began to pour oil and soy sauce into the pot, and threw two large packages of kelp into it-------this thing also boils into a large pot full, and then threw in a few packages of noodles, and finally
Sprinkle a lot of young palm stems into the pot before putting it in the pot. It will taste good after it is cooked.
Then, such a big pot of hodgepodge was completely eaten. This had nothing to do with Fang Linyan’s cooking skills. It was mainly due to the engineers hired by the instant noodle manufacturers with high salaries. The spice packets they made were indeed fragrant.
Of course, Fang Linyan’s credit was to pour enough blended oil into it. For these children and the elderly who were obviously malnourished, the oil had an instinctive temptation for their barren and weak bodies.
After a hearty meal, Fang Linyan and Bangalash set off. Of course, Mukla did his part as a guide and was very enthusiastic and proactive in taking the initiative to help. He took the initiative to prepare the motorcycle without waiting for Bangalash's instructions.
The car is gone.
Being shrewd, he has long seen that Fang Linyan is an out-and-out big money donor. The key is that this guy looks very generous!
Facts have proved that Mukla was right in his bet. His enthusiasm and help were directly exchanged for three golden devils!! And it was a deposit. As long as he got there as soon as possible, there were still five golden devils as a reward. This directly made Mukla almost kneel.
Come down and kiss Fang Linyan’s boots!
This is really a huge sum of money for him. Even after so many years of running around and working hard, Mukla's total savings are less than three golden devils.
Of course, this is nothing to Fang Linyan. All problems that can be solved with gold galleons are not problems! This thing cannot be brought out of this world anyway!
The straight-line distance of ninety kilometers seems to be only a short distance on the map, but in fact, if you want to go there, even if you have a guide to lead the way and ride a motorcycle, it will theoretically take six months.
hours or more.
However, under the power of the five golden devils, Kadala Village appeared in front of Fang Linyan before the sun had risen in the sky.
This village is located between two mountains, but the slopes on both sides are not steep. To put it simply, there will be no landslides or mudslides.
Fang Linyan stood on a rock and looked down, and found that the village had a very large population and was bustling with people. Then he saw the big olive tree, and said in surprise:
“Didn’t you say that this tree has been cut down?”
Mukla smiled and said:
"Sir, the big olive tree before was indeed cut down. What you see now are just new seedlings that have grown back from the cut stump."
Fang Linyan used a lot of willpower to swallow the "fuck" that he almost blurted out again in his stomach!
The big olive tree in the village is more than 30 meters tall. It has obvious signs of becoming a forest with only one tree. This is just a new seedling! The original olive tree should be as big as
