Kenya is a special country, with two rainy seasons in a year, and this cassava, which grows and develops rapidly in the first rainy season, absorbs water and nutrients like crazy, which is why it is surprisingly large. In the dry season, it blooms and bears fruit. By the time the second rainy season arrives, their rhizomes will rot. Because of the short interval between the two rainy seasons, this cassava exists for one to two months.

After listening to Li Xiaoman's introduction, the fat man felt that if this thing was transplanted to other places, it was estimated that the chance of being able to breed was very small, and if he wanted to plant it on a large scale, it was estimated that he could only be here.

Under the leadership of Li Xiaoman, he soon dug up a few more large cassava, and it was estimated that everyone couldn't hold it anymore, so they stopped. Brother Badou communicated with Xiao Mantou, and realized that Li Xiaoman now has an extraordinary sensitivity to plants, as long as it is within a certain range, she can feel it.

In the afternoon, everyone returned with a full load. The fat man was carrying a large cassava in one hand, while the babies were dragging one together. However, Li Xiaoman showed the strength that Shang Ziqi was extremely envious, and he actually carried two cassava by himself, and this strength was not much worse than that of a fat man.

Back to the tribe, nature won the cheers of the people, and like this kind of harvest belongs to a good harvest. More than a dozen black sisters-in-law took the cassava, scraped the skin with hardwood, and then divided the cassava into several pieces, and then scraped them all into a paste. This thing is poured directly into the pot, and you can boil porridge, which is rich in starch, and it quickly becomes slimy, and it tastes sweet. After heating, some harmful substances in it also disappear, so you can eat it with confidence.

"Xiao Man, eat more." The fat man filled Li Xiaoman with a big bowl. Outcome. I was given several blank eyes by the small steamed bun - which should now be called the big steamed bun.

I saw that the hunting team actually hunted a large baboon. Then he roasted the meat on the fire, and the fat man had to go up and say. However, for his nagging, those indigenous men obviously took it as a deaf ear. In the end, Li Xiaoman came forward to advise, and those natives said that they would not hunt baboons and gorillas in the future.

After dark, the fat man directly called the babies to his hut, and Sun Xiaomei still wanted to sleep with Sister Xiaoman - she also called with the sorghum - but the fat man glared at his little eyes: "You wet the bed yesterday and know no, sleep with Lao Dou." I can wake you up in the middle of the night to pee! The little girl also blushed a little when she said this, and she never mentioned it anymore to sleep with Sister Xiaoman.

In the middle of the night, the fat man woke up the babies one by one to pee, and they were all dazed, and soon they all fell asleep again. Brother Badou then walked out of the hut like a thief and touched the great wizard.

Lifting the straw curtain on the door, the fat man rushed in in a hurry, and called out in a low voice: "Hehe, I'm coming-"

Whew, a person was made on the straw mat: "Fat brother." You don't sleep in the middle of the night, what's the matter? ”

The fat man looked fixedly. It turned out that Shang Ziqi was still in the matter, and Li Xiaoman was also sitting side by side with Shang Yatou, with a helpless face.

How can I forget this girl! Brother Badou was depressed in his heart, and he said a few times in his mouth: "The air here is very good, the sky is exceptionally clear, I will tell you to go out and see the stars!" ”

"Sick-" Shang Yatou muttered, her head planted, and she lay down and fell asleep again.

Seeing Li Xiaoman shaking his head with a smile, the fat man had to get out of the hut again, it seems that tomorrow night, I have to ask Shang Yatou to sleep with the children-

Sleeping in a daze, the fat man was woken up by a group of little black children. The natives wake up very early, which is probably related to going to bed earlier. After all, in such a primitive place as the barbarian tribe, there is not much entertainment at night. So a fat man like that, in the eyes of the natives, is a lazy man who sleeps lazily and must be despised.

Breakfast is still cassava porridge, and the fat man is squeaking and drinking it with a large bowl, and at the same time looking down at his chest: I won't develop here, right?

After breakfast, the natives began to get busy again. Although in the eyes of the fat man, their inefficient busyness is equivalent to blind work, but the natives are happy with themselves, and it is not something he can change.

And Brother Badou, who is idle in the eyes of the natives, led the babies out for a walk. Today he was going to try his luck by the river, after all, Doudou had found a large diamond here, and there might be a diamond mine nearby.

More than ten miles away from the barbarian tribe is a big river, saying that it is a big river, of course, refers to the rainy season, but now it is the dry season, so it becomes a small stream, and it is not bad if it is not broken.

There were some green plants growing by the stream, so there were many herbivores, and the fat man also saw a group of lions, lazily lying on a big tree. The weather is hot and dry, and most of the lions start hunting in the evening. At this moment, they all climbed the big tree, lying on the thick trunk of the tree, their tails hanging straight down, how lazy and lazy they were.

"These guys are the real lazy guys!" The fat man was a little indignant. And Shang Ziqi was busy taking pictures, and there were more than ten lions lying on a big tree, which was rare.

They did not disturb the lions, but went a few miles along the river, and the babies suddenly cried out: "Fatty, fat! ”

Brother Badou scratched the back of his head: "Is it out of breath, the fat man is also what you can call, don't fight for three days, go to the house to reveal the tiles!" ”

"Fat tree, there's a fat tree over there!" Sun Xiaomei pointed to a big tree not far away and shouted. Brother Badou looked at her little finger, and was also stunned: "It's really a fat tree!" ”

There was a lonely tree standing there, and it looked very strange: the trunk was very thick and smooth, like a super-large beer bottle; The branches and leaves on it are shaped like dragons, more like tree roots. The whole tree feels like a tree has been pulled down and plunged upside down into the ground.

"That's a baobab, and we're blessed." Li Xiaoman has lived here in vain, and his knowledge is much beyond others.

So the crowd rushed over and found a herd of baboons squatting on the tree, and a few elephants under the tree, trying to stretch out their trunks to reach the fruit of the tree. The fruit was not small, roughly oval-shaped, more than a foot long.

"Throw a few down and taste them!" The fat man raised his face and shouted, worthy of being called a baobab, what a monkey.

But the baboon herd is not those gorillas, they don't stop the fat man's command at all, and there are even a few baboons who throw down the leftover fruit shells and smash them on the top of the fat man's head. However, this baobab is not as heavy as coconut, and it is light and fluttery.

In the end, it was Doudou who came out, and the baboons twisted off a few baobabs. The fat man caught them one by one, and then divided them into groups to taste. Peel off a thin layer of peel on the outside, and the inside is a white flesh, which is sweet and sour in the mouth, and it really looks like bread.

It's just that the baobab tree is more difficult to climb, otherwise, it is estimated that those natives would have picked it back long ago. However, it was not difficult for the monkey to climb the tree, and he had a good relationship with the baboons, so he swished to climb to the top and kept twisting the baobab down, and the result was cheaper than the elephants - the fruits that bore high places, they couldn't reach them.

When picking fruits, it was inevitable that a lot of leaves would be touched, and Li Xiaoman also picked them up and put them in the back basket. According to her, this leaf is also edible.

After tasting the baobab, Brother Badou led everyone back to the creek to hunt for treasure. I heard that there might be diamonds here, and everyone was obviously interested. However, after looking for a long time, there was no gain, so the babies were the first to slack off and began to pick up beautiful stones on the riverbed.

"Fat guy, is there really a diamond here?" Shang Ziqi later expressed skepticism.

Brother Badou nodded vigorously: "Of course there is, but if the diamond is so easy to find, it will not be valuable, you must have perseverance to know no!" ”

"Then you just keep looking, it's best to find a big piece and make a big diamond ring for Sister Xiaoman!" Shang Ziqi was tired, found a big stone to sit down, then took off her shoes and rubbed her feet in the stream.

"Girl, be careful that the piranha gnaws her toes!" The fat man laughed and quarreled with her.

Shang Ziqi casually touched the creek, grabbed a stone, threw it at the fat man, and said "crow's mouth" in his mouth

The crow that had been falling on the fat man's shoulder quacked twice, and it stayed honestly, who did it provoke?

The fat man copied it casually, grabbed the stone in his hand, then put it in front of his eyes and looked at it, and raised it up to the sun: "Hahaha, girl, thank you for giving me such a big blue diamond!" ”

What, what--Shang Ziqi didn't even bother to put on shoes, and ran over on pebbles, only to see the fat man holding a stone slightly smaller than an egg in his hand, blue and shiny, like the sea water condensing in his palm, so crystalline, so pure.

"My, my!" Shang Ziqi jumped to grab it, but the soles of her feet were hit by stones, and she squatted there and sighed.

The others also gathered around, taking turns to hold the blue stone and look at it, only to see that there was a faint purple in the deep blue, which was very attractive.

"Doesn't it seem like a diamond?" Captain Jack is well-informed, and the surface of the average diamond rough is black and protruding, similar to ground glass.

"Could it be a sapphire!" Shang Ziqi didn't care about the pain in her feet, and pinched the stone to take a closer look.

Old Jack shook his head: "Haven't you heard that there are sapphires in Africa?" After pondering for a while, he suddenly remembered something, and exclaimed excitedly: "It can't be Tanzanite!" ”

Everyone else looked at each other, it was the first time they had heard the name Tanzanite, could there be such a gemstone?

After some explanation by Old Jack, everyone figured out that Tanzanite is a gemstone that has only been discovered in recent decades, and there is currently only one mineral deposit in the world, located in Tanzania, so it is named after it.

"Is it worth it?" Shang Ziqi asked anxiously.

Old Jack nodded: "The value is much more expensive than gold, a gram of tanzanite can be sold for between a thousand and two thousand dollars, and this piece has more than two hundred grams, to say the least." ”

Hundreds of thousands of dollars, just thrown away by her casually, thinking of this, Shang Yatou couldn't help but be a little crazy, grabbed the Tanzanite blue in her hand and ran: "This piece is mine-"

Behind him, there was a fat man's shout: "Feet, girl, are you still barefoot-" (to be continued......)
