Time passed in a hurry, and three days passed in the blink of an eye.

Baker is like a small wave, which disappears in an instant in the long torrent of history, without the slightest ripple.

During this time, the black bear told the Mohican people in the tribe about his intention to cooperate with Zhao Hongyu. The old chieftain, Samara, felt that this matter would be of great benefit to the Mohicans, and nodded in agreement.

With the old chief's nod, everything went smoothly.

Black Bear recruited 200 Mohican warriors and became the 'managers' of the gold mine in the name of guarding the mine.

At the same time, the women of the Moxie tribe, who had nothing to do, also went to the gold mines deep in the forest in twos and threes to work as gold miners.

Anyway, they don't have anything to do at home, and they can come here to find 'stones' in exchange for the food they need, so what's not to be satisfied with. Even children can do this, so the women of Mohican burst out with great enthusiasm.

And the families of the Mohican soldiers who died in the battle, each family received a pension of 1,000 catties of 'Chen rice' sent by Zhao Hongyu, which made those families grateful.

A human life is worth a thousand catties of rice! It's still Chen Mi!

Zhao Hongyu felt that he was really a scumbag, but even so, Zhao Hongyu was already a noble person in the eyes of those soldiers and black bears who participated in the ambush.

For this, Zhao Hongyu was really a little crying and laughing.

But he would never be brain-dead to explain anything, after all, it was very beneficial to him.

The title of 'noble, fair, and kind black pupil' was quietly spread in the Moxi dry tribe, which also surprised Zhao Hongyu.

Everything, back to normal.

At the very least, it seems to be back to normal on the surface, and not many people know what happened a few days ago.

The Mohican warriors who participated in the ambush of the white man had gained a lot from Zhao Hongyu, and they swore that they would keep their mouths shut.

Although the oath will not be kept, Zhao Hongyu has no bottom in his heart. But in the light of the current situation, he had no other way but to trust these Mohican warriors.

After this incident, little Emma became silent. made the black bear very distressed, but he seemed very powerless about his daughter becoming like this.

Not only him, but even Zhao Hongyu couldn't help much.

For this reason, the black bear beats his wife at night, because the black bear thinks that it is his wife who does not take good care of the children, which makes Emma not arrested.

In the end, it was only under Zhao Hongyu's persuasion that the black bear let go of his poor wife.

Strictly speaking, the black bear's wife is also a victim, and the black bear venting his anger on his wife is the thing that Zhao Hongyu is most unaccustomed to.

But Zhao Hongyu can't interfere in other people's housework, and he has no right to interfere. All he could do was persuade the black bear not to beat his wife.

And the little Emma, who has become taciturn, is like a little tail, and begins to follow Song Hu all day long, and the two of them seem mysterious and mysterious with Song Hu.

In the battle against Baker and his party that day, Song Hu showed strong combat effectiveness.

He alone killed seven or eight mercenaries, and it was precisely because of such a record. The Mohican warriors who took part in that battle all paid him great respect.

For the strong, no matter what era, there will be admirers.

Zhao Hongyu's team has won the respect of the black bears.

And on the same day, little Emma watched Song Hu kill the enemy neatly with his hands and feet. This gave the little girl a very strong shock, and then he became Song Hu's little tail and couldn't shake it off. …,

"What do you say little Emma is doing behind Song Hu's ass all day long?" Seeing that little Emma was following Song Hu all day long, and the two of them seemed to be deeply secretive, Zhao Hongyu couldn't help but turn his head and whispered to Wang Shan, who was following him.

The women and children of the Mohicans around them were busy, standing in the icy water, holding iron pots to dig out the sand from the stream and slowly sifting through something.

The Mohican warrior guards led by the surrounding black bears vigilantly observed the surrounding situation. After all, this is in the forest, and wild beasts are often infested, and they don't want their people to be harmed.

On the towering giant tree, under the cover of dense forest leaves, some Moxican warriors hid their bodies very well, if it wasn't for the fact that they had long known that they were hiding there, Zhao Hongyu would not have been able to discover their whereabouts.

Perhaps, little Emma has taken a fancy to Song Hu. Girls in this era are very precocious, so it's not impossible for this kind of thing to happen. Wang Shan looked at Song Hu, who was talking to little Emma not far away, and replied with a serious matter.

What, Emma has taken a fancy to Song Hu!

Zhao Hongyu's eyelids twitched, he felt that this thing was really incredible.

Little Emma is only 11 or 2 years old. No matter how precocious she is, she can't be ripe to this extent.

However, looking at Wang Shan's appearance, Zhao Hongyu also felt that this matter was a bit suspenseful.

As Wang Shan said, this era is not his own 21st century. It is understandable that girls in this era are precocious.

And even in the 21st century era in which I live, it is not news that elementary school students are engaged in objects.

Thinking of this, Zhao Hongyu was not very calm.

However, if little Emma really takes a fancy to Song Hu, he, Zhao Hongyu, will not object.

After all, 'love' is free, and he has no reason to object to others.

At this time, Song Hu suddenly walked into the distance of the forest with Emma, and little Emma followed him with a tense face. Since being rescued, little Emma's innocent look has disappeared, and has been replaced by a straight face all day long.

"Let's go, come along, I'm going to see what they're up to."

The fire of gossip in Zhao Hongyu's heart burned brightly.

Anyway, now that things here have entered the normal stage, he doesn't need to watch here.

Things are very simple here in the gold mines, as long as the Mohican women find gold, they will pack it themselves, and if they save a certain amount, they can take it to him in exchange.

Of course, a portion of the gold that the women found was to be given to the black bears as a reward for their guardians.

Following Song Hu from a distance, Wang Shan said to Zhao Hongyu: "Chief, maybe we should teach the Mohicans and the distant tribes to trade, otherwise we won't be able to become bigger and stronger." And we can attract other tribes through trade, let them move to the vicinity of the Moxi dry tribe, as long as they can't leave our goods, then we can use some means to get them to do things for us. ”

The matter that Wang Shan said was something that Zhao Hongyu and them had planned in private for a long time.

Yes, if it weren't for the discovery of gold near Mohican, then the Mohicans might have started logging as Zhao Hongyu thought.

After all, it is very unrealistic to trade with Zhao Hongyu just by hunting.

Most of the goods that Zhao Hongyu trades in hand are the commodities needed for life. This commodity is consumed quickly and in large quantities, which requires that the Moxie tribe must also have sustained purchasing power.

But it is clear that the purchasing power of the Moxie tribe has begun to shrink. …,

The fur resources they had at hand that they could exchange for had been depleted.

Then, in such a situation, they must find new resources that can be exchanged with Zhao Hongyu.

On the American continent, in addition to abundant animal resources and land resources, there are also abundant forest resources. This is also a property that Zhao Hongyu has always coveted, but he is not enough manpower, so he has not started.

In the 21st century, the price of timber has been high, and if it can be sold in the trader, it will also be a good source of money.

In the 21st century, the population exploded, and arable land is also very tight. Timber has always been a sought-after material in the international market, and Zhao Hongyu is not an idiot, he certainly knows everything about it.

For example, timber on the American continent can definitely be sold for a good price. It is definitely possible that its value may even exceed the profits generated by the gold mine.

And according to the forest resources of this era, it is no problem for Zhao Hongyu to trade for a hundred years.

Of course, this means not using the basis of devastating logging.

Hearing this, Zhao Hongyu nodded: "Yes, Moxican can be our partner." Now I have some reputation, and the people of Mohican have a great impression of us, which is the basis for in-depth cooperation. I hope it won't be long before we can start this plan. ”

For Wang Shan's reminder, Zhao Hongyu was very much in favor.

The two talked softly as they hung far behind Song Hu and Emma.

The early spring sun shines through the dense foliage of the forest, casting a little golden light. The constant chirping of all kinds of birds can be heard all around, and this is the Americas in 1620.

The body of the ancient tree, which can only be hugged by several people, is covered with green moss, and the humid temperature makes people not feel the warmth of the sun. The slightest coolness is still pervasive in March in this early spring.

Song Hu in the distance, talking to Emma as he walked. It's a pity that due to the distance, Zhao Hongyu didn't know what they were talking about.

It's been a few months since they came to Mohican, and they have learned a lot of Mohican language. Although it is not so smooth, it can still be done by stumbling to express a few simple meanings.

Therefore, when Song Hu and Emma communicated, they couldn't avoid waving their arms constantly.

Song Hu and Emma are still unaware, and behind them are two men who have burned the fire of gossip.

After walking for about five minutes, Song Hu and Emma came to an open field in the forest near the gold mine.

This open area is covered with thick grass and is surrounded by lush vegetation, like a small man-made botanical garden.

Zhao Hongyu raised his hand and gently brushed away the plant branches in front of him, and secretly looked over.

I only saw that Song Hu took off his green military coat and underwear, revealing his dark and sturdy upper body......

This guy doesn't want to 'press begonias with a pear tree' here!

Zhao Hongyu and Wang Shan showed shocked expressions at the same time.

Wang Shanba clicked his mouth and whispered something that made Zhao Hongyu's egg hurt...... Beast! Let go of that sister paper and let me come!
