Chapter 119: We Are One Kind of People
The temptation of the word "food" at this moment far exceeds all other desires, and frankly speaking, the current food can no longer be regarded as a simple thing to satisfy the stomach, and the more than 100 mouths are entrenched in the earthen houses below the gentle slope and the top of the mountain above the gentle slope, if I really cut off the food of the white-robed men and women and coax them away, it is hard to guarantee that it will cause any incidents, such as rebellion and mutiny, whether the divine power of Fujigami can suppress the desire to survive of this group of hungry people, no one can say.
"What food?" , I snuggled back to the mound as if nothing had happened, but my heart was surging, and the blood was urging the pulse to beat at an accelerated pace.
"Of course it's edible, and it will keep them from having to beat you up for a long time." He saw that I didn't seem to be so attentive to his proposal, so he just casually stubble.
"What the hell? , Sky Tree? Bugger? Or what? I almost asked if it was a mouse, but I found that there was no such word in the native language, and that I had never seen anything like this since I had been on the island.
"If I were you, I would ask me about my conditions first", he looked at the trees in the distance with a look of a hanger, and his thin but ruddy cheeks made me suddenly feel like a profiteer.
"Well, what do you want?" , I asked helplessly, in fact, in a short period of time, I also thought about it, but found that in fact, I didn't have anything to trade, this broken island is not like home, at least I still have a real estate certificate and deposits, the value of this broken place "real estate certificate" is never more than a rotten orange, here, get some thick branches and palm leaves a day to build a small shack out.
"I want a dress like you wear", the bald man said slowly, the first condition, yes, the first, because it was clear in his tone that there was a follow-up.
"I just said yes," I nodded.
"I want a mud house like the slave girls live in," he said, and he opened a second one.
"Okay, I'll give it to you if you don't want it, but I'll have to wait a while, now you'll have to stay at the top of the mountain", I didn't even think about it.
He did not object, and then said, "I want a slave, even the child who was beaten by the mute that day", and his tone suddenly became serious.
"From now on we will have no slaves, and each one will have his own division of labor, just like we who originally lived here," I said to him, shaking my head;
"No slaves?" He looked at me suspiciously.
"Yes, there are no slaves, there is food to complete the work, there is hunger when the work is not completed, and there is extra food to complete the work beyond the task", I didn't bother to explain to him what is the superiority of socialism, nor did I bother to say what it means to work more and get more, but simply said the principle.
Silence ......, long silence;
"Well, in that case, can you not arrange things for me? On the surface I will do what you say I want to do, and you don't need to give me food", he said after thinking for a long time.
"Yes, but if you don't happen to have anything to eat, you can always ask me for it, and you must not take anyone else's," I said, nodding my head.
Frankly, I'm absolutely convinced that even if I don't give him food, he will never starve, but if it steals, it's a different matter entirely, it's the law, and I have to make it clear to him.
There was another silence;
"Give me the woman who is with you," he said with a sudden strange smile on his face.
I endured the smile that grew in my heart, and still pretended to be serious and turned my head to look at him: "You're talking about Huya, no, you can pursue it yourself, I said, no one here is a slave, I don't have the right to do this, just like you don't have the right to walk on that gentle slope forbidden land, she is now seriously injured, she is lying in the cave and needs to be taken care of urgently, you can find something for Huya and give it to the girl who can't see things with her eyes, her name is Chuan Meizi",
The bald man didn't seem to feel bad about my objection to the answer, and apparently he didn't have much hope for the request.
"I want a boat, one of those big boats that is parked on the edge of the beach," he straightened up, patted his bare ass and stood up.
"What do you want that thing for?" When I saw that he was getting serious, I also stood up, and my hand never left the bird gun on my waist.
He looked at what I had asked for and smiled evilly, "I don't know what I'm here for, maybe I'll live in it when I'm bored."
This request made me a little embarrassed, but after thinking about it, now that there are more people, more than a hundred people can definitely build better ships than these two as long as they have enough time, so he said: "Yes, but I have to pick first, and the rest is yours, besides, you need to remember that if you want to go to sea, you must have my consent!" I gave him the answer categorically.
In fact, the last sentence was completely unnecessary, because he alone could not set up that big ship, nor could he go out to sea, this was my judgment, but many years later he really did it, and indeed disappeared at the junction of the sea and the sky, but unfortunately, he never came back when his beard was already gray.
"What more do you want?" I was a little annoyed by the heaps of conditions, but when I think about it, he didn't want anything real at all.
"Let me try your thing that can summon thunder," he said in a tone that suddenly squeezed out a few flowers on his face, like a woman's coquettishness.
As soon as I heard this request, I instantly picked up the handgun and shot at the sky, and said coldly: "If you dare to mention this again, I will kill you, the previous conditions are nullified, and the transaction will be terminated", shouting while feeling sorry for the lead bullet that I had just ruined, but this shot must be released, otherwise, who knows what else this grandson will come out of.
"Don't don't, don't, you can disagree with my conditions, take a look at the general line, okay, that's all", he stared at the muzzle of the gun, his eyes seemed to be twisted into cross-eyed, staring at the barrel of the gun that was still smoking in front of him, the evil smile did not end, but he pretended to be aggrieved and said to me like a girl.
The bald man is a strange person, or rather, he should not belong to any of the indigenous groups, whether it is the way of thinking, the competition for interests, and this bottomless way of trying to achieve the end, which is closer to the social human beings I am familiar with.
From these conditions he prescribed, it can be seen that he actually did not ask for anything in essence, except for the boat, but he also almost went away, because all his conditions revolved around two words: "freedom" and "unrestrained", isn't freedom everything for a person?
Therefore, the reason why I always want to take him with me is because this person is the only person I have no barriers to communication, and everyone only cares about each other's interests.
I stared into his eyes and said coldly, "The conditions are over, now tell me, where is the food?" I didn't remove the muzzle of the gun, and even though there were no more bullets there, I still had a bird gun behind me, ready to kill him.
