We are not afraid of poor people, because Chinese people love to give gifts, and I didn't think that in today's situation, this Tswa people also have the hobby of giving gifts, so soon Zhang Nan's wealth is enough for him to take a bunch of wives: 11 chiefs each gave him five cows as a gift!

The oxen were brought and tethered outside. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

This is a heavy gift, because according to the custom here, taking a wife is generally up to 5 cows, which is still the standard of the mother-in-law's family.

If the woman is an ordinary herdsman or a villager, 3 cows are about the same.

This is also because Botswana is relatively rich in southern Africa, and if it is a poor country, there are cases where a cow is exchanged for a wife.

This time it is equivalent to each chief giving Zhang Nan a wife...... Oh, it was given him a property that he could marry a wife.

The black buddies are polite, and Zhang Nan is not stingy!

The place where the Earth King is located can be called a small city, but even the most backward town in Zhang Nan's hometown can throw it half a world away.

Botswana is just a few cities, and in this land that is only a little smaller than the Soviet Union's Ukrainian SSR, most of the area is primitive society!

There are schools here in Tuwang's station, from primary school to the equivalent of Huaxia junior high school, not to mention the quality of education, the school building is so dilapidated that you can't tell that it is a school!

In Zhang Nan's opinion, even being a cowshed is too broken!

As for the location of the tribal "branches", according to the previous words of the engineering team who went to dig the wells: there are schools, literacy education, and in the open air.

If it doesn't rain, you will go to class, if it rains, you will automatically have a holiday, and you can bring your own bench, or simply sit on the floor.

It's good to have an education, and that's even thanks to the old white colonizers, who didn't know what writing was hundreds of years ago.

Colonization, invasion, and even its good side, what is this called!

Zhang Nan is a good person, and in order to thank the earth kings and chiefs for their generosity, he directly announced that he would pay for the construction of 12 schools for the tribe!

The money is like that, the important thing is that Zhang Nan has a construction team here, and it is trivial to build a few small schools, and there is no need to go to a big city hundreds of kilometers away to hire a high-priced white construction company.

Generous?

The 11 tribes didn't spend much money on a few classrooms, a few teachers' dormitories, and a bunch of the simplest teaching aids, tables, chairs, and benches in each place.

Tuwang built a two-story building here, a little bigger, or cheaper.

Of course, it is much more expensive than 55 cows, but they are given 500 acres of hereditary land and a hereditary "noble" status, which is in the eyes of Zhang Nan, who is a Chinese in his bones: These black buddies are good!

Even if there is a diamond mine, it's still good!

Now that the tribe is still relatively poor, it is the best time for Zhang Nan to come and "send charcoal in the snow"; although the country has already had diamond mining before, it is in the territory of other tribes, in the southern part of South Africa, next to the capital of Botswana.

Moreover, the two diamond mines are not big, the capital country has to maintain the operation of the state apparatus, and the city has to be built, to put it bluntly, even if the Tswa people have a president, he is still - his mother - poor!

It's just that I'm used to being poor, and I don't feel much about it now.

Zhang Nan's generosity was immediately welcomed by everyone, and there was another hug.

It's not over yet, Zhang Nan still has gifts, which are brought and can be cashed out immediately.

The situation in Botswana is relatively stable, but it is black Africa after all, and it is basically a semi-arid grassland in Africa where nomadism is the norm.

The gift is a gun!

Brand new AKM, 5 per chief, 25 magazines, some small bits and pieces for maintenance, plus 5,000 rounds of ammunition, double the earth king.

AK rifles, Africa's favorite!

Even if there is no war here, it is very good to have an AK series rifle in good condition, let alone a brand new Soviet original.

At this point, Zhang Nan felt like a warmonger, and he would give a gun when he gave a gift.

That's not all, the Tuwang and the chiefs each have a M1911A1, the chiefs are ordinary government type, 5-inch barrels, and the Tuwang has a 4.25-inch barrel, and there are beautiful patterns and carvings of the commander's gift type to highlight their special status.

African pistols don't pay attention to large ammunition capacity, and the old M1911A1 is considered a popular top product, and even a lion can beat it to death!

Well, everyone's happy!

The following is a banquet, kill the cow directly, or kill five heads at a time, and show the whole cow feast.

This is the most solemn way of celebration, and cattle are precious to the Tswa people.

Zhang Nan was very generous and offered to kill five of the cattle that already belonged to him.

There are many people from the tribe, and the coronation of the new chief is a super event in the tribe, there are at least two or three thousand people inside and out, Zhang Nan is not stingy.

The new chief is generous, and everyone is happy to accept it.

Moreover, Zhang Nan also gave back four cows to each of the chiefs, so that their people could bring them back.

After talking about the reason, the chiefs were also happy: the new chief was a miner, did not raise cattle, and could not raise them.

As for the extra 6 cows, two in each of the three mines, the king of the earth will send someone to help rush over and let the guys improve their food.

Just leave it in the camp, eat some grass and drink some water and you won't die, it's the rainy season.

Warriors kill cattle, Zhang Nan is the new chief, so there must be warriors under him, right?

"Which of you will kill a cow?"

Zhang Nan asked directly, this seems to be the second time, right?

Randy, Thomas and the others shook their heads: Just kidding, we're going to kill people, kill cows?

It's not from the slaughterhouse, let's eat beef, and we won't kill cows!

Fortunately, there are Shamili and Karimi here, these two had to kill cattle every year before they became soldiers.

One head for one person, but for a helper.

Others have to tie up the cattle, but the warriors under Chief Zhang Nan don't need it, and Alyosha and Jin Wenbo do it.

How to do it?

It was so fierce that the two stepped forward, one person and one head, grabbed the horns of the cow, and threw the cow down with all their might!

The two Tajik men were quick with their eyes, and their long sharp knives cut the arteries and trachea on the cow's neck in one fell swoop, and the two cows that were pressed to the ground were stunned and couldn't get up.

Two big guys are really as strong as bulls!

The other three heads let others help, and several people dealt with one and also fell.

But it looks quite cruel, so don't say much.

Zhang Nan brought the former Chinese cooks and a full set of field cooking equipment: although he was already the chief of the Tswa people, he was still a little worried about the diet of the Tswa tribe, and planned to eat some boiled beef at most to deal with it, and by the way, he also invited the chiefs to taste the Chinese-style food.

Botswana was once colonized for a long time, and now there are nearly 10,000 white people, and the Tswa Tu kings and chiefs have tasted Western-style steak almost before, but this is the first time they have encountered Chinese cuisine.

There are very few Chinese in Botswana now, and I have heard that there is a construction engineering company sent by the Huaxia Gong in the south, but in the vicinity of the Great Salt Lake, before the arrival of "Xingchen International" and "United Forces", almost no one has seen Chinese people.

But the Tuwang family is an exception, because Tuwang's father, the deceased former Tuwang, visited China in 1976 with the then president, and has a great affection for the Chinese people.

The Tuwang family has a lot of photos taken in Huaxia, the Forbidden City and the Great Wall.

Chinese cuisine, the legendary delicacy of the old king when he was alive!

……

After some hectic chaos, the whole cattle feast finally began, and I let go of eating!

Talking about the interests of the tribe, talking about the future development, and by the way, talking about the national politics of Botswana, and then Zhang Nan found that it was good to be a chief: it was easy for him to get everyone's support within the tribe, because he would bring benefits to the tribe.

And the king of Tu is a member of the country's Council of Chiefs, a total of 15 people, Moshari is the loudest one in it, meets once or twice a year, and has much more power than any U.S. senator.

If he has the heart, Zhang Nan will even be able to get one of the 15 positions in the future, because the qualifications of that committee member do not require that he must be a hereditary earth king, and the chief can also, and the black buddies here really don't seem to understand what it means to be empty!

Fortunately, Zhang Nan is not very interested in politics for the time being, as long as he has the mouthpiece of the soil king.
