851 Li Yuanxing's South American PR
Li Yuanxing's fleet finally stopped. The speed of the ship was controlled very smoothly along the way, but the consumption of coal still exceeded the captains' calculations. Ocean currents, headwinds, heavy rain, etc., will increase coal consumption.
When Pei Xi reported the data on the fleet's coal stock and the captains' concerns to Li Yuanxing.
Li Yuanxing just smiled indifferently, as if everything was under control.
Your Highness the King of Qin is not worried, then no one will be afraid or nervous.
At worst, when the ship starts at Hawaii, cut some wood and put it on the boat. If it really doesn't work, it's still wood.
"Send the order!" Li Yuanxing took a booklet from Wu Zhao and handed it to Pei Xi: "Tell all captains to send sergeants to the water and check the bottom of the ship. There will be some small things in this area of the sea to bite the bottom of the ship, and remove the things attached to the bottom of the ship every three days. This is very important!"
Pei Xi went down to pass the message.
When Pei Xi came back, Li Yuanxing had already asked someone to lift out several boxes from the cabin. The boxes were filled with bamboo tubes of exactly the same size, and the lid was made of back and sealed with wax.
"Are you sure?" Li Lanshan helped Li Yuanxing to sort out his clothes, then tied a pistol with a holster, and then said to Li Yuanxing: "This is a small-caliber revolver and will not get stuck. You remember that this pistol is also insured. If there is danger, if you fire a shot, you will send someone here to rush forward immediately."
Li Yuanxing moved his arms and felt okay, nothing particularly uncomfortable.
A high-power walkie-talkie should be on the belt and the headset should be hung.
Li Yuanxing only brought four people to the shore on a small boat. Each of them had a crossbow on their backs and a long cloth bag in their hands. The knife was wrapped in the cloth bag. According to Li Lanshan, with obvious metal weapons, you would think that you were the enemy without talking about it.
Unless, you plan to conquer by force, do not bring metal weapons.
Latin America, ancient Indians.
Of course. This is just a general term. In fact, there are many nations with their own names.
Not far along the coast, I saw a tribe from afar, with many people holding primitive bows and arrows and spears looking at Li Yuanxing and his group from afar.
"Your Highness, these people are not threats at all!" Pei Xi said very politely.
With such equipment, any of them can beat 100 people. They only need to have a crossbow in their hands, a flying knife on their waist, and a steel knife, and they will not treat these people as enemies at all.
Language communication is simply impossible. According to Li Lanshan's knowledge, Indian language is just a general term. In fact, there are dozens or even hundreds of languages. It is also divided into several major language systems. Not to mention that Li Lanshan even uses the smartest modern computer, Li Yuanxing can't translate the other party's language at this time.
However, I have considered it carefully when choosing this place to log in. Because Li Lanshan believes that a few simple words may be understood here, just a guess, a matter of probability.
However, Li Yuanxing believed that he would teach them Chinese.
Take out a pack of candy from your pocket. It was a high-quality cube of malt sugar, with enough spices, and some very precious dried fruits such as peanuts, sesame, walnuts, etc. Take out two pieces and hold them in your hand. I reached out and handed them out.
The other party did not respond.
Li Yuanxing smiled and took out a piece and threw it to a child, then put it in his mouth.
This one is edible!
This is the signal Li Yuanxing brought to the other party. Exchange of food is a friendly expression. In the primitive tribe, food is the most important material for this tribe.
Feeling Li Yuanxing's friendship, a wizard walked out, opened his hands and patted it, and raised it into the air.
At this time, Latin American tribes had already appeared in the form of wizards, tribe leaders, officials, warriors, and tribes. Then there were lower-class people, civilians, slaves, etc., and tribes. They were somewhat similar to those before the ancient Xia Dynasty in China and the Sanhuang period.
"Relatives, come from the west!" Li Yuanxing made a series of strange pronunciations.
The combination of these words was analyzed by Li Lanshan's hard work.
It is used in Jucadon. Some people have studied that this language overlaps 22% to 26% with Chinese. So from the difference between the rest of the language, it should be ancient Chinese five thousand years ago.
"Heaven, man, one!" It seemed that he felt the other party's friendship, and the wizard was also trying to communicate and said three words.
Li Yuanxing sounded like he could understand. The first thing he said was "Sun".
"Yuanxing, he is talking about the unity of man and nature." Li Lanshan gave a very affirmative answer, and she was confident that she was not wrong.
The unity of man and nature!
Li Yuanxing opened his arms and looked up at the sky, then hugged his chest tightly, and then slowly spread his arms in parallel.
This is what Li Yuanxing understands about the unity of man and nature.
The wizard smiled and actually made the same move as Li Yuanxing. Li Lanshan, who was standing on the boat and looking at him with a high-power telescope, breathed a sigh of relief. It was obvious that the other party accepted Li Yuanxing's friendship.
Li Yuanxing took out a cigarette, bit it in his mouth and lit it. Then he handed it to the wizard one.
When we met, we smoked! Wu Zhao's eyes turned blue. What rhythm is this? Do you think you are in the modern era of later generations? Just as you were about to scold Li Yuanxing for a few words, your head was abnormal, but you saw Li Yuanxing lit a cigarette and then lit it for the wizard.
The high-fives were the two of them happily.
Li Lanshan said at this time: "Tobacco originated in Latin America, and the ancient Mayans smoked. Indians entertained VIPs, and smoking together was definitely a very important etiquette. Although Li Yuanxing's cigarettes were simple, they were very suitable for the tastes of the people here. I guess there would be another banquet between them, smoking around the fire, but I don't know if there is any wine!"
"Go on the boat and find me someone who has studied the old sayings, and then you will have ten jars of wine and fifty cans." Li Yuanxing whispered.
It was still during the day, but a fire was set up.
The lighter made of Li Yuanxing's stainless steel and kerosene is definitely a very precious gift. The cigarettes in bamboo tubes are no longer gifts, but a precious goods. This is more than the tobacco that is burned directly without processing. It is so delicious that people with identities in the tribe sit around the fire.
Li Yuanxing's subordinates are very strong soldiers, which can be seen without words.
Li Yuanxing did his best to tell the other party that he was going to treat him to dinner. Food was the biggest gift.
A canned pig's trotter is placed next to the fire.
This is made of steel. People from these tribes do not know what steel is, but they know that it is a metal object. Using metal objects to hold food is a possibility for sacrifices, or changing the angle, this is dedicated to God.
Each person has a beautiful porcelain bowl and then a pig's trotter.
People in the Tang Dynasty could eat it, but with the help of various spices, it was naturally not a delicious dish that these tribal nobles could imagine.
Pig trotters, lamb, beef, fish, chicken. They have tasted each.
The wizard also whispered to his subordinates, and within a short while, he came over with a rattan basket. The wizard grabbed a handful of handfuls... It was amazing. They gave the top-quality titanium crystals. They were so big, and they only exchanged for one can.
You can't be too dark. You are telling yourself.
Three cans were exchanged for one piece of high-quality titanium crystal the size of an egg. There was a piece of football size, and Li Yuanxing directly asked someone to pile up eighty cans. Or gave a piece of silk.
The language was still not very good, but Li Yuanxing understood at night that the other party wanted to take him there.
I temporarily returned to the boat and made an appointment to set off the next morning.
"I will go there. If they are just a village, then they may go to a larger town. Choose 500 elite soldiers, hide their weapons, and we will be merchants once." Li Yuanxing said in the conference room.
"Your Highness, are we still afraid that these people will not succeed?" Wu Bin asked from the side.
"Wu Bin, there is a legend. About four thousand years ago, or four thousand five hundred years ago, a group of people from Central China traveled across the ocean to the extreme east. What I want to verify is whether their legends have similar ones. If so, do you think your knife should be placed on their necks?"
The idea that Li Yuanxing instilled in the Tang people was that I was united in China.
So Li Yuanxing and Li Lanshan chose the South Bay of Latin America. There are few people here, unlike later Mexico, where there is already a complex regime. It is not easy to talk about, so you can contact slowly first and then talk about it. What's more, this place will be Li Jia's fiefdom in the future. Without need, Li Yuanxing chose a peaceful fusion.
Li Yuanxing's fleet had a large ship with a load of 3,000 tons and six armed merchant ships of 1,300 to 1,800 tons. The soldiers alone brought two thousand men and picked out five hundred elite soldiers. Pei Xi took them, and then brought enough cargo to prepare to walk a long way.
Wu Bin couldn't follow him, one of his arms was metal, and this thing was afraid of causing unnecessary trouble.
Li Yuanxing, who was once strictly trained, had never used a radio station. The call distance was 200 to 300 kilometers, and he used batteries and solar power to rush. Four people were sent to protect him. There were only four units of this Tang Dynasty. Li Yuanxing really did not want to use it until he had no choice.
That tribe, or the village.
Twenty people with weapons were sent, led by the wizard himself, and led Li Yuanxing to the depths of the dense forest.
Li Yuanxing led professional soldiers, some were responsible for recording roads, and some were responsible for leaving marks.
After about two hours of walking, I started to rest.
What they eat is dry food, and these primitive villagers also eat grains.
"Your Highness, we walked about forty miles. There are marks on the road!" Pei Xi said to Li Yuanxing in a low voice.
Chapter completed!
