The rainforest here is denser and the trees are very tall, Anaya said that the terrain here is relatively high, and when the water rises every year, the river does not go far into the rainforest, so the trees that grow here are not the kind of trees that can soak in the water for half a year and still flower and bear fruit normally, but a kind of tree called brazilwood.

"Brazilwood? No way! After listening to Anaya's introduction, the sturgeon took out a knife from his pocket, ran to a large tree in front of him, which required several people to hug, and used the knife to cut a small piece of bark.

"Lao Hong, come and see! It's brazilwood! If this tree can be transported back to China, it will be worth at least hundreds of thousands! After seeing the red wood under the book, the sturgeon grew its mouth, looked up at the tree more than ten meters high, and its saliva was about to flow out.

"Is this some kind of good wood?" Hong Tao didn't know anything about wood, except for pine wood, which had a special taste.

"This is mahogany, although it is not as good as red sandalwood, huanghuali or something, it is also mahogany, a good thing to make furniture, this large forest is put in the country, and you have to ask for hundreds of millions?" The sturgeon pulled his hands as if the sturgeon had belonged to him.

"You like this kind of wood, you can go to the village and buy some carvings to bring home, it's very cheap." Anaya had already walked out of the road for a while, and when she saw Hong Tao and the others pointing around a big tree, she had to walk back and point forward, signaling that it was time to hurry.

After walking about half the distance, two dark-skinned people suddenly came out of the bushes in front of them, they were only wearing a thong, holding oars and harpoons in their hands, they were also stunned when they saw Hong Tao, and stopped, but after seeing Anaya, they returned to normal and greeted Anaya. After a few words, he walked along the path towards the river.

"That's the people from the village, they go fishing, there are very few outsiders here except for the tourists I brought, so they are wary of strangers, don't be afraid, let's go!" Anaya also saw that Hong Tao was a little nervous.

"Do you have any special relationship with this village? Why can only you bring tourists to come? Hong Tao asked the doubts in his heart.

"Hahaha, because I'm also a member of this village, and the two boys in my hotel are from the village. My father used to know the people here, my father brought me here when I was a child, and the wood carvings in their village were all transported to Manaus by our family to sell, which was the only income in the village. Anaya patted her chest and felt proud.

"Don't they also have boats, why don't they go to Manaus and sell them themselves?" Hong Tao feels that the statement of Anaya is still debatable.

"The people of these tribes don't want to go to the big cities, they don't get used to it, they don't like it, they don't like outsiders to wander around their villages. If you join one of those tours in Manaus, they will certainly not take you to the proper Indian tribes, because those tribes do not welcome foreign tourists, only those tribes who have lost their land and rivers. I had to live on the tips of tourists. "Although Anaya only has Indian blood, she doesn't seem to have much respect for those tribes.

This little Indian village was built right next to a creek, and they carved out a clearing here. Seven or eight thatched huts were built on top of them, and when they entered the village, there were only about 10 women and children left. Everyone else went fishing or farming.

Anaya was very familiar with the people here, and the people here also knew Anaya, and when she saw Anaya coming here with three strangers, several children immediately ran towards the woods, presumably to call their adults.

"Lao Hong, I'm embarrassed to look at it directly, this is too red fruit!" Fat Zibu whispered in Hong Tao's ear.

"I don't think you can't bear to look at it directly, but you hate yourself for having a few fewer pairs of eyes, and you really haven't seen it, your taste is heavy enough, and you are even interested in this kind of mature woman?" Hong Tao knew what he was talking about, the women here didn't wear shirts, and the two big cloth bags on their chests were dangling.

"Don't talk nonsense! Sturgeon, don't shoot it, you're not afraid that people will beat you up! Fat Bu stared at it fiercely again, and began to divert the topic from the sturgeon.

"Yes, don't shoot it yet, let's figure out the situation, don't you like mahogany? Look at what that old man is doing. Hong Tao also forgot to tell the sturgeon to take pictures, for these indigenous people, it is not good to say that it is the same as those tribes in Africa, they do not like to be photographed.

"You go in first, and I'll come when I go and see." The sturgeon followed the direction pointed by Hong Tao and saw an old man sitting on a piece of wood at the door of a thatched hut, carving a piece of mahogany in front of him with a small axe, and immediately he couldn't walk.

"Come in, this is the village chief's house, he's going to harvest cassava, he'll be back in a while, let's wait a while." Anaya took Hong Tao and Fat Zibu to the door of a thatched hut and went directly into the house, not that Anaya didn't want to knock on the door, there was no door in this house at all.

"See, this is a very ordinary Indian village, they have more than 50 people here, and there are bigger villages, and there are smaller ones, but they all look the same, and there is a field in the forest behind them, but they grow some cassava, and then go to the river to catch some fish, and that's all their food. In addition, I carved some wood carvings and took them out to sell, and exchanged them for some daily necessities, which is basically the case. Anaya took the small bowl brought by an Indian woman and took a sip of its contents.

"Taste it, good coffee." After smashing the bar and smashing the mouth, Anaya pointed to the small bowl placed in front of Hong Tao and the fat man cloth and said.

"It's delicious!" Hong Tao picked up the small bowl carved from mahogany and took a small sip of the black liquid inside, the root of his tongue was bitter, this coffee was too strong.

Within a few minutes, a man about the same age as Anaya walked in from outside the house, first greeted Anaya with a hug, and then sat down opposite Hong Tao, and greeted Hong Tao and the fat man in words that he didn't understand. Then another Indian woman entered, carrying a wooden plate, and in addition to the small wooden bowl for coffee, there was a small pile of dark green leaves.

Hong Tao hadn't finished drinking this cup of coffee yet, so he waved his hand to signal that he didn't want it, but the fat man was quite able to drink this bitter medicine soup, and reached out and took another cup. As for those leaves, Hong Tao didn't understand what they were used for, but he estimated that it should be a spice, and these foreigners like to put all kinds of spices in the tea to drink together, and it is estimated that they have to put it in the coffee.

Things were similar to what Hong Tao had imagined, but the village chief didn't put the leaves in the coffee and drank them, but put them in his mouth and chewed them like chewing gum.

It is estimated that the village chief saw Hong Tao's curious eyes, and immediately pushed the plate over and gestured with his hand, meaning to let Hong Tao taste it too.

"It's coca leaves, it removes fatigue, and if you don't mind, you can chew it, it doesn't hurt." After saying that, Anaya also picked up a few leaves, rolled them into a small roll, and stuffed them into her mouth.

"Coca leaf?" The fat cloth can't help but reach for everything that can be eaten.

"Do you know what this is? You just take it? When he was in Canada, he was influenced by Pavey's old man who cultivated marijuana, and he knew more or less about the source of some drugs, and coca leaf was one of them.

The name coca leaf may not be familiar to everyone, but there is another thing that has been extracted from it that is definitely famous, and that is cacoine. Coca is an evergreen shrub native to the Andes, such as Peru, Bolivia, Colombia, and Brazil.

"What is this?" Fat Zibu obviously hadn't heard of the word coca leaf, and looked at Hong Tao in confusion.

"That's where cocaine comes from." Hong Tao whispered in Chinese to remind the fat man cloth.

"Holy! Why didn't you say it earlier, then I won't eat it! Sure enough, the fat man's hands trembled, and the leaves fell back to the plate.

"It's okay, chewing this is not addictive, unlike cocaine, the Indians here will chew this, just like you chew gum, it can make people relax, remove fatigue, and also treat gastrointestinal pain." Although Anaya does not understand Chinese, the cocaine itself is pronounced in English, and he can still understand what Hong Tao means.

"What's really wrong?" Hong Tao is still not very relieved, the drug thing is too scary, and if he doesn't understand the consequences, Hong Tao will definitely not touch it.

"It's definitely fine!" Anaya smiled.

"Then let's try it too." In the end, curiosity overcame vigilance, and Hong Tao rolled 3 coca leaves into a small roll, stuffed them into his mouth, and chewed them carefully a few times.

"What's going on?" The fat man was waiting impatiently, this kind of new gadget must be difficult to come across in China, and he also wanted to try it, and go back to brag with his friends.

"It's a little sweet...... It's like eating tea leaves, but it's not astringent. Hong Tao tasted the taste carefully, not to mention, the taste of this leaf is delicious, there is a plant aroma, and a little sweet and silky feeling, and there is no other peculiar smell.

"Then I'll try it too!" When the fat man saw that Hong Tao had eaten it, he quickly grabbed a few slices, but he didn't roll them, so he stuffed them directly into his mouth. (To be continued......)
