Chapter 1859: Silverback Gorilla (2)
Don't think that the locals will be stupid if they don't see much, they also have a lot of cleverness, for example, today, they learned that they could exchange things with Han Xuan if they caught frogs, and it was difficult for everyone to catch enough of them, so they cobbled together enough of them, and they got more than 600 bullfrogs today.
Due to the lack of natural predators, bullfrogs breed in large numbers in the local area, in addition to some people caught African giant frogs, this strange creature whose body can grow up to one meter, is also one of the favorite ingredients of the locals, the external price of each big frog is about two to three dollars, Han Xuan has seen it once, and kept it as a pet, but unfortunately it died in the end.
In the last century, this kind of frog can still be seen everywhere, but unfortunately with a large number of killings is getting smaller and smaller, it has been included in the list of endangered protected animals, Han Xuan has the heart to protect this animal, when he saw someone bring a few big frogs, he knew that there was also a habitat for this animal nearby, and he turned around in his head, and suddenly thought of a way.
deliberately made a disgusted expression, pointed at the few black villagers who didn't know much, and shouted: "Don't want this kind of frog!" If you eat it, you will have diarrhea and get sick! Can't eat! ”
It was colonized by France for more than 100 years, resulting in a high degree of French popularity in Gabon, some people in the village of Flame know French, and some people speak the local indigenous language, which is related to the birth of their ancestors, those who do not know French only know one language, and those who can speak French mostly also know the local language.
After hearing Han Xuan's words, more than a dozen villagers who sent the frogs over immediately talked about it, and looked at the giant frogs that they often ate with suspicion, in the eyes of these villagers, the people outside are very knowledgeable and know more than themselves, because the medical assistance conditions are too poor, a small cold may die, so that they are most afraid of getting sick.
After the first villager threw away the giant frog in his hand, the others also threw away the big frog, without regretting anything, even children can easily catch this stupid frog, stupid to the same extent as the arapaima in the Amazon basin, I believe that the bad news about this frog will not be long before it spreads throughout this village, and even nearby villages.
The residents of Flame Village have not experienced the baptism of public opinion, and they are still very simple, and those African giant frogs that have been on the road to death have run away in the rain.
It's hard to imagine being stared at by the bodyguards with guns in their hands, afraid of their muddy feet leaving marks on the door, just for soap, iron pots and other worthless things.
From this point of view, the cost of labor resources in Africa is terrifyingly low, there is no shortage of labor on this continent, what is lacking is high-quality labor, coupled with being far away from the market, no industrial supporting resources, and high freight costs, resulting in a lot of labor being wasted.
There is also the inevitability of Africa's inability to develop, and it is also related to the character of the local people, who have food and drink without worry, and their understanding of the disease is not in place, and they don't know if they tell them, just like talking to the second secondary school teenager about national affairs, and they can't talk about a topic at all.
When they were vaccinated for free, many parents even refused, believing that they were mutilating their children, and even if they asked an interpreter to help explain it, it would be useless......
With a little inconspicuous little thing in exchange for hundreds of bullfrogs, Han Xuan and those villagers were very happy.
It's not the first time that the bodyguards have done this kind of thing, several bodyguards are quite experienced, Han Xuan's own bodyguards, plus his sisters, have enough bodyguards for more than sixty people, plus others, except for those and mercenaries sent by the Gabon official, the number is enough to kill so many bullfrogs.
The two chefs on the plane who arrived from the United States with them are discussing using these ingredients as a staple food to cook a bullfrog meal with a small number of ingredients, Han Xuan only wants to eat fried frog leg meat, so tonight they will most likely eat bullfrogs without frog hind legs, frogs are a kind of animal that is beneficial to humans Yes, but I have to say that fried frog legs are really delicious, bullfrogs are not on the protection list.
The two younger sisters were sleeping, and they couldn't wake up for a while, and they loved the villagers who worked hard for the reward, so the bodyguards who were unwilling to brave the rain to deal with the bullfrogs hired more than a dozen local villagers to help deal with it with the payment of a towel per person.
Han Xuan read the book by himself for a while, until seven o'clock in the afternoon, it was not dark yet, there was already a fragrance wafting from outside, Fat Ding relieved himself from the fright of the arrival of the "little devils", and was lying at the feet of the master at the moment, it was interesting when it first came here, and it was already tired of staying in the village for so long, especially when Fat Ding saw the wild silverback gorillas passing by, hunting and killing a puppy raised by a villager, he felt more and more that this place was dangerous.
Secretary Dawson was packing up Gloria and Felicina's daily necessities, and Olivia was helping them wash their shoes that had been soiled before, when Han Xuan suddenly remembered something and asked Secretary Wensen, "How did Vice President Manga talk to you?"
I remember being very happy when I left, I should have gotten a donation spot, right? ”
"That's right, after I asked the opinion of the charitable foundation, I promised him to donate 300 primary schools, which can help about 80,000 students get education, I am very worried that I can't recruit so many students, after all, the population base is too small, do you think there is a problem?"
Secretary Dawson told him that Africa's population is generally scattered, so there is no need for too many schools, and the investment in each Snow Mountain Primary School is also small, and the cost of building the same 1,000 primary schools is about ten times more than that of Huaxia.
"It's okay, I'm just casually asking, this number is enough." Han Xuan replied: "Gabon's poverty rate is still too high.
To be considered the country with the highest human development index in sub-Saharan Africa shows that there is still a lot to be done.
The French colonized here, provided a lot of infrastructure, the education rate of the population was higher than that of other regions, and the geographical location close to the Atlantic Ocean, rich in mineral and timber resources, all kinds of conditions made Gabon a decent country, but still very backward, not bad compared to other countries in the sub-Saharan Desert.
I can't help but think that perhaps the idea of changing the status quo on this continent may be difficult to complete. ”
Seeing the little boss who was worried about this, Secretary Dawson shook his head and said with a smile: "It's not your fault, we have done enough, helping hundreds of thousands of people and influencing millions of people, but unfortunately the foundation is too weak, and it will always get better if you take it slowly......"
