It is inevitable that there are indigenous people near the bay.
There is great nature nearby, and of course it is also suitable for human beings to thrive.
It may not always be true how powerful the natives are.
It's just that the central government gave the explorers strict orders not to use force against the natives unless they were ferocious and warlike.
Otherwise, with the muskets in the hands of the imperial expedition team, the natives here would have been wiped out long ago.
Fu Xinyuan and Wu Jiang took over the matter of dealing with the natives.
"The locals call this place Jackal Valley, and the tribe inside is the Chumash. It's not small, but they are very wary of outsiders."
The accompanying translator informed Fu Xinyuan and Wu Jiang of the information obtained.
The translated name is Longchiba, and they are the indigenous people in Alaska Province. Now they have already submitted to the rule of the empire, and the whole family is living a good life.
As the empire expanded southward, it inevitably had to deal with various indigenous peoples, so it was natural that translators were in great need.
Don't believe a word of it.
Outsiders who have been here before always cheat and do anything, causing them to suffer a lot.
The native opened his pocket and what he took out almost made Fu Xinyuan's breath stop.
Obviously they couldn't figure out why Long Chiba's voice could be so loud. Could it be a god?
The native hesitated for a moment, then nodded.
political issues.
Fu Xinyuan opened the small wooden tube he carried with him and showed the gold inside to the natives.
"You said you didn't mean any harm, so why are you here?"
On the sixth day, when Longchiba was still chanting sutras, a person came out.
They have realized that this new group of people seems different.
The natives on the hill immediately became commotion.
Is it "Yin" or "Yin"?
Fu Xinyuan decided that he was from Yin.
Upon hearing their purpose, the natives scratched their heads.
The native seemed to have thought of something and said viciously: "That's what those red-haired guys said at the beginning."
"We don't have red hair, and we are just like you. We have the same hair color, the same skin color, and even our languages are somewhat similar."
He had been around Zuo Mengeng for a long time and once heard a saying.
Then……
"Is this thing expensive?"
Seeing the approaching army, the sentry immediately blew the horn. Not long after, many indigenous warriors appeared with crude weapons.
Because this matter is not a scientific issue, but...
The natives not only cursed, but also waved their weapons to threaten, which was very unfriendly.
The fifth day...
"Aren't you here to conquer?"
The natives no longer scolded or threatened, but listened quietly.
However, during this time, the attitude of the indigenous people has changed significantly.
The fourth day...
No one knows whether this native will get violent and hurt others. Isn't Fu Xinyuan afraid?
Everyone admired his courage.
A very strong man, also unarmed, came to Long Chiba.
The gold nugget is the size of a plate, without any trace of color, and it is so pure that it is intoxicating.
Long Chiba quickly waved behind him.
"I'm just a translator. I can't answer your specific questions. Can I ask the person in charge to come over?"
Fu Xinyuan's eyes were sincere.
"We came from the far away ocean. We came here to find wealth, not to be enemies with the local masters. I wonder where the leader is? Our leader wants to talk to you in person!"
The natives felt a lot relieved when they saw him looking slightly thin.
After all, even Sun Wukong couldn't bear this Tang Monk-style bombing, let alone the simple-minded natives.
"We like to be nice to people."
After so many years of development, they have already gained rich experience in how to deal with the indigenous people.
Sure enough, after hearing him talk about hair color, skin color and language, the Aboriginal man's face softened a lot.
What surprised him was that the person walking over was actually Fu Xinyuan.
Although he has not been in the New World for a long time, Fu Xinyuan has discovered that many words in the languages spoken by these indigenous people have similar pronunciations to Chinese and have the same meanings.
And considering it this way, it is in the best interests of the empire.
The natives in the valley were very surprised. This group of new outsiders obviously looked very powerful, so why didn't they attack them?
Because they were unclear about the situation, the natives were very honest and did not play any tricks like night raids.
Long Chiba returned without success, but Fu Xinyuan and General Wu were not in a hurry and just stationed their troops outside the valley.
He somewhat believed it.
"We came here to find this. This kind of thing is a valuable asset to us and can be exchanged for many, many things. We plan to mine these things on this land, but you are the masters here. You cannot but say hello to the masters.
Just do it, after all, it violates your interests."
Longchi Ba was extremely gifted in languages and mastered Chinese in a short period of time, so he was hired as a translator and followed the army in action.
When he reached a certain distance and was sure that the people inside could hear him, he found a big rock to act as a cover.
However, they heard clearly what Long Chiba said.
The natives are simple but not stupid. Of course they can see that if these outsiders really want to attack, they can kill them all.
Fu Xinyuan patted Long Chiba and ordered: "Please, don't get too close, and be careful to protect yourself."
"Very valuable, very valuable."
But now...
The opponent is not armed, so what if he is strong?
Is it true that Zuo Mengeng’s secretary only handles official business?
It's not that he's bragging. In terms of martial arts, there's nothing wrong with him beating ten.
He originally thought that Zuo Mengeng was joking. How could the ancestors migrate over such a long distance and such a cold environment?
The third day...
Only this group of newcomers showed restraint and did not attack with force.
Long Chiba was very grateful for his concern and walked forward alone with a trumpet in hand.
The next day, Long Chiba continued to speak, but he still received curses and threats.
While they were talking, the army had already moved into the outskirts of Jackal Valley.
The terrain of Jackal Valley is difficult, with its exit sandwiched between two mountains. It is easy to defend but difficult to attack. The local indigenous people have set up sentries at the pass to closely monitor outsiders.
Fu Xinyuan smiled.
Finally willing to contact him, Long Chiba was really happy.
Because he asked Long Chi Ba, these indigenous people claim to be Yindi people.
Only Fu Xinyuan himself is confident.
He is a politician, so he would naturally consider it this way.
The indigenous people of the New World were probably migrated there by the old people of the Yin and Shang Dynasties.
"What's the use of this thing? It can't be eaten or used."
"It's of no use to you, but it's very useful to us. Or, let's cooperate and use your land to excavate this, and we'll exchange it for something you can use?"
He was afraid that the natives would not believe him and there was no time, so he simply took off his coat.
"Do you like this kind of clothes? You can exchange them for anything."
