Chapter 291: Mysterious Little Village
Zhao Ming and Feng Laosan have been in many places in Africa, I remember that when I first planned to come to Africa, Zhao Ming's only thought was to hope to get opportunities in the land of Africa and strengthen my strength, but now when I arrived in Africa, I found that things were far from being as simple as I imagined.
In most places in Africa, although they are poor and backward, many people in China may think that this is because the African continent is poor in resources, but in fact, Zhao Ming and Feng Laosan have passed through so many towns and villages these days, and found that the people here rely on the mountains and water to eat water, and there is no so-called sense of distress at all.
Most of the countries in Africa are mainly agricultural, but many people would rather eat ready-made than farm, and most of the people here work for women.
As one of the ancient continents, Africa has a large number of primeval forests, and the wild food that lives in the primeval forests can satisfy their stomachs, and in the face of the abundant wealth given to them by nature, Africans only habitually ask for it, and do not make deep use of it.
Perhaps it is because God has given them food to survive that they rarely rely on their own hard work to live, and in the final analysis, it is because Africans are mostly lazy.
Feng Laosan said with a smile as he walked: "I really didn't expect that you would choose to come to Africa, I have been in Myanmar before, and I often think about going to Africa one day to have a look, but I didn't expect it to be realized now!"
Hearing what Feng Laosan said so funny, Zhao Ming grinned, in Zhao Ming's heart, he chose to come to Africa for a purpose.
Although Africa has a large area of desert, there are also a lot of mineral resources, including oil, natural gas, gold, diamonds, etc., especially South African diamonds and Ghanaian gold, which are very famous in the world.
"With so many resources, they are not well developed and utilized, it is really a tyrannical thing, and it is really interesting to think about it by provoking so many countries......" Zhao Ming said helplessly.
Hearing Zhao Ming say this, Feng Laosan shook his head helplessly, his eyes were full of smiles, his eyes looked at the villages and rivers in the distance, maybe if he walked there, he could buy a farm or pasture.
"Africans also want to exploit these rich resources, but most African countries have a weak industrial base, even if they have a large number of resources, they do not have the strength to exploit them. Feng Laosan said as he walked, obviously very clear about the current situation in Africa.
After walking for a long time, Zhao Ming felt thirsty and tired, as if he had no strength, the sun was shining on his face, and he felt that in such a hot weather, if he continued to walk, he would definitely suffer from heat stroke.
However, in such a hot weather, Zhao Ming and Feng Laosan were still able to bear it, and the two chatted without saying a word, and continued to walk forward.
Seeing that the river is in front of me and the village is not far away, but it will take some time to really walk over, and what is even more helpless is that there are many fierce beasts on this African continent, and if you don't pay attention to it, you will have a close contact with the fierce beasts here.
In Zhao Ming's impression, most of the lions, crocodiles, hippos, and African elephants he saw before appeared on TV or in zoos, but now he is very nervous when he thinks that he is likely to meet these ferocious animals.
Finally arrived at the river, walked for such a long time, and pulled a suitcase all the way, Zhao Ming felt very hot, he planned to put down the suitcase and go to the river to wash his face, but he didn't expect to hear Feng Laosan's reminder.
"Beware! Beware of wild beasts by the river, and...... There is a high probability that there will be crocodiles in the water......" Feng Laosan said with some exaggeration, which made Zhao Ming's feet that he had just stepped out instantly retracted.
Compared with the hot and humid weather, compared to washing his face by the river, Zhao Ming felt that his own life was more important. The two walked a little further, and finally reached the village they had seen earlier.
The people in the village looked very simple, and the people in the village were also extremely curious about Zhao Ming and Feng Laosan who suddenly appeared.
The children of the village stood on the side of the road and watched the bustle, but at noon many of the residents of the village had eaten and left the village in a hurry.
After some inquiry, Zhao Ming and Feng Laosan learned that there was a domestic engineering team building a railway here, and many blacks went to work in the engineering team, although the salary was not much, but for them, they were already content.
Zhao Ming's heart was overjoyed, it was indeed a happy thing for him and Feng Laosan to meet the domestic engineering team here in Africa.
First of all, the problem of language inability to communicate can be solved, but these days, Zhao Ming and Feng Laosan can communicate with these residents of Africa with simple gestures and movements.
A young man named Sava was extremely enthusiastic about Zhao Ming and Feng Laosan, although he was out of the house, this harmful heart was indispensable, and the heart of guarding against people was indispensable.
Under the leadership of Savo, Zhao Ming and Feng Laosan have a place to live, in Savoie's home, this black man named Savoy is currently working in the railway engineering team to aid Africa, he does not have a lot of salary, but as long as he can make some money and marry a daughter-in-law, he is already very content.
Sava has always secretly run towards a house at the back of the village these days, Zhao Ming and Feng Laosan have also seen it many times, and today is no exception.
It turned out that Sava had paid his salary to the engineering team building the railway in the past few days, and was planning to go to the family behind the village to propose his relatives, but Zhao Ming and Feng Laosan had not seen Sava 's relatives, it seems that this Sava must be a bachelor, and he should belong to the kind of person who feeds the whole family without hunger.
It didn't take long for Sava to return home from the outside with a lost face, and when he saw Zhao Ming and Feng Laosan, Sava opened his wallet with a dejected look, and through gestures and gestures, Zhao Ming instantly knew everything.
"Brother Feng, it seems that this Sava wants to marry a daughter-in-law, but it seems that he doesn't have enough money, and the family refuses to marry his daughter to him!" Zhao Ming said with a smile.
"Hehe, then let's wait until I make enough money......" Feng Laosan patted Sava on the shoulder and said to Zhao Ming with a smile. However, for Zhao Ming always fighting with the people around him so quickly, Feng Laosan was helpless.
A few days later, Sava decided to take Zhao Ming and Feng Lao Sanyun to see where he worked, and walked around the village, attracting many residents who lived here.
Not far away, a black girl with short hair kept looking at Savoy, looking at the two looking at each other, Zhao Ming guessed that this black girl must be the woman Savoa had always wanted to marry.
However, it seems that this black girl is still very satisfied with Sava in front of her, if it weren't for her father's dislike that Sava was too poor and couldn't afford to pay too much, maybe the two young people would have been together a long time ago.
Under the leadership of Savoa, Zhao Ming and Feng Laosan finally came to the engineering team of China's aid to Africa, and Zhao Ming and Feng Laosan were naturally happy to see their compatriots.
The hard work paid off, and found the people of the engineering team to match, Zhao Ming finally got his wish to buy a large piece of land in Africa, as well as two earthen houses, on the surface, Zhao Ming and Feng Laosan can be regarded as starting a new development in Africa.
Now that they have their own farm in this village, the next step is to work hard, then try to earn more money, strengthen their strength as soon as possible, and then return to China.
Of course, some time ago, Zhao Ming and Feng Laosan lived in Savoy's house for nothing, and they paid Sava every day, but Feng Laosan knew very well that this Sava was enthusiastic on the surface, but in fact, it was not as simple as he saw.
After hiring some people from the village, Zhao Ming and Feng Laosan began to plan how to tidy up the farm, and then go to the town to buy some cattle and sheep and raise them in the pasture, so that it would be perfect.
After discussing with Feng Laosan, the two decided to set off, and before leaving, Zhao Ming took all the important items in the suitcase, and then set off.
It takes about two hours from the town, and Zhao Ming and Feng Laosan went there in the car of a local vegetable farmer, but they paid the fare.
After coming to Africa, Zhao Ming felt that in fact, the people here in Africa are not as bad as they imagined, but the environment here is too closed, many things are not so modern, and people's living standards are generally not high, especially in terms of food, which is not particularly particular.
But fortunately, many things in Africa are very cheap, and even buying a farm did not cost Zhao Ming too much money. Next, I will buy some cattle and sheep, and it is estimated that it will not cost much.
In the eyes of the locals, Zhao Ming and Feng Laosan are like the rich people here, plus they are Chinese, and they are also particularly jealous of the two.
The car stopped in the town, and Zhao Ming and Feng Laosan paid the fare and walked towards the place where the cattle and sheep were sold under the guidance of a black man.
After some selection, Zhao Ming and Feng Laosan bought ten sheep, three rams, seven ewes, and of course, three cows. For people like Zhao Ming and Feng Laosan, who have never been engaged in animal husbandry, such a number is enough.
After discussing with the cattle and sheep sellers, they reluctantly agreed to load the cattle and sheep into the car and send them to Zhao Ming's farm, but the premise was that Zhao Ming and Feng Laosan had to pay for the car round trip.
After reaching a consensus, Zhao Ming and Feng Laosan got into a truck and returned to the small village from the African town. For the two of them, it can be described as a full return.
