Li Du and Hans hugged and saluted the old man, and then the two sides went straight to the point and began to negotiate business. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
The old man was much more shrewd than the big man, and he picked up the shotgun and looked at them one by one, and then he could find a little fault with each one.
Obviously, the other side wants to bargain.
In this way, Hans's skill came in handy, and he went up to engage the old man in a battle of words and swords, all kinds of tactics, all kinds of disputes, and showed that he was confident.
They already knew in their hearts, before the big man told them that one gun could be exchanged for ten ordinary hunting knives.
Therefore, Hans stuck to this bottom line, and the old man, although shrewd, was helpless.
On the contrary, after the two had an argument, the bottom line was raised again.
They negotiated in units of one shotgun, and Hans's bottom line was that each shotgun could be exchanged for ten ordinary knives or four knives.
Some shotguns are in better condition, and as a result, you can get more hunting knives, up to fourteen and ten at worst......
This is Hans's job, Li Du went to see other people's trades, after all, the Hopi were a large tribe with nearly 20,000 people, and they had a lot of weapons in store and many hunting knives.
The treasure pickers followed up as if in heaven, they were inspired by Li Du, opened the carriage and let the other party choose at will, and the hunting knife became currency, and anything could be traded with the hunting knife.
The most popular are their smartphones, and most of the Hopi people use old-fashioned mobile phones, which give them a great sense of novelty and fascinate them.
The treasure pickers took off the SIM card and used all the phones to exchange for hunting knives.
Seeing this, Li Du had to gather them together and said, "In this case, we can't get in touch, so we must be together, so as not to find no one when we leave." ”
Ollie said, "It doesn't have to be like this, Boss Li, let's set a time, such as four o'clock, and when we get to four o'clock, we will go to the school together, how about it?"
"No, I can't tell the time. Dickens shook his head.
Ollie said, "Where's your watch?"
Dickens said, "Oh, it's been exchanged for a hunting knife." ”
"Shit!" Ollie quickly took off his watch, "I forgot about this stubble!"
Hans's negotiations were over, and the ten shotguns were replaced by twenty-five knives and fifty ordinary hunting knives.
Godzilla and Oo stuffed the knives into the cab, and watching them work, the sheriff's eyes were full of appreciation: "Hey, strong guys, are you interested in staying in our tribe?"
Li Du hurriedly said: "President Lincoln has freed the slaves, and now there are no slaves, we can't trade the two of them." ”
The sheriff said, "I know, haha, I mean invite them to stay, the beauties of the tribe can choose as they choose, and they will definitely become great warriors!"
Ao shook his head: "I'm sorry, I already have a wife and children. ”
The sheriff looked regretful and looked at Godzilla again.
Godzilla shook his head like a rattle: What are you kidding, do you have beautiful women in your tribe?
Given the guns, the old man took them to his house as guests.
Li Du saw that the time was not early, so he said to Hans: "Let's not go, you see, if we delay any longer, we won't be able to go back today." ”
Hans said: "If you can't go back, you won't go back, don't you still want to go fishing in Lake Powell? ”
Hearing their discussion, the old man laughed: "Yes, our friend, let's stay here tonight, today our three major terraces happen to hold Kavalala, let's participate in Kavalala together." ”
Li Du asked, "What is Kavalala?"
Hans thought for a moment and said, "It seems to be a Hopi party, it's quite grand, it's used to entertain friends from afar, it's very interesting." ”
In this way, Li Du is also willing to stay, he has never seen Kavalala, and it is okay to have a long experience.
They followed the old man into a spacious thatched hut, which was the home of the sheriff, and it looked quite imposing, and it was full of weapons: hunting knives, shotguns, bows and arrows, and even a machine gun, which looked like it would work.
In addition to these firearms, there was a long wooden chest in the center of a room, and on the surface of the box were some wooden knives, swords, wooden guns, and other weapons.
Li Du asked curiously, "What is this? Weapon box? It looks beautiful, but these weapons are all carved on it, right?"
When Hans saw the box, he patted himself on the forehead and groaned, "Shit, my mind is full of shit, how did I forget this!"
Li Du asked, "What's wrong?
The old man smiled: "Haha, this is not a weapon box, you must not guess what it is." ”
"This is a coffin, a coffin you prepared for yourself!" sighed Hans.
Li Du was taken aback by this, this is not a good word!
As a result, the old man smiled and said, "You are very knowledgeable, child, this is indeed the coffin I prepared for myself, I didn't expect you to see it." ”
"I saw a documentary called 'Home' where director Jaanne Arthurs and his team visited your tribe and introduced you to your culture, including the coffin culture," Hans said. ”
"Home" is a documentary, which lasted 15 years, 18 months of filming, and went through 120 filming locations in 118 regions in 54 countries, which is very shocking.
Listening to his words, the old man showed a look of reminiscence: "Ya'an-Arthurs-Bertrand, I still remember his name, an interesting Frenchman. Yes, he came to us, documented a lot of us, and later sent us back a documentary video. ”
Hans whispered to Li Du: "I ignored this, but I can't blame me, who can remember the content of a documentary all the time?"
"What did you ignore?" Li Du was confused by him.
"The most distinctive culture of the Hopi people, the coffin culture! We should exchange the coffin with a gun, the coffin here is very valuable, and it can be sold for a very high price outside!"
Li Du was shocked by him: "Can you really think that you want to do the business of a funeral home?"
"Go to your funeral home, it's just to resell the coffin, in short, we'll see the opportunity to act, see what else we have valuable, go and change the coffin and come back!"
"This thing is worth a lot of money?"
"A coffin can sell for tens of thousands!"
Li Du gasped: Raise the coffin and hair!
This is really valuable, and the United States, unlike China, still uses the method of burial, where people die in a church and then bury them in a coffin in a cemetery.
Interestingly, Americans regard cemeteries as wealth, like houses and cars, and after buying a cemetery, they can use it for their families, or they can buy and sell, and even like real estate, they have their own cemetery brokers.
In this case, the coffin business is naturally very prosperous, just like the nature of the furniture business.
