Chapter 749
Luo Sigong really didn't expect that giving delicious food to others would make them scream in anger.

These people don't have brain problems, do they?

He froze for a moment, then raised his hand to beckon an elder of the North American Indian tribe who was in charge of translation, and asked with a puzzled face, "What are these people calling?"

The elder of the North American Indian tribe listened carefully, and then explained: "My lord, they seem to be scolding other people, not us."

Uh, scolding other people?

What kind of person can make them can't help but yell when they eat?

Luo Sigong thought for a while, then put the bowl and chopsticks on the tree root, then waved and said, "Come on, come with me and ask."

The elder of the North American Indian tribe quickly put the bowls and chopsticks on the tree root pier and followed him.

Seeing that the person who greeted them was walking towards them with a serious face, several bare-bottomed people stopped shouting immediately.

The elders of the North American Indian tribe introduced Luo Sigong's identity to them in the dialect here.

Hearing this, they nodded respectfully.

However, they didn't put down the bowls in their hands, because the food in the bowls was so delicious that they couldn't bear to put it down.

Seeing this, Luo Sigong asked directly: "Who were you scolding just now? What did they do to you? Why are you so angry?"

A man who looked like a chief quickly stood up and explained: "We are scolding those yellow-haired and white-faced people."

Yellow-haired and white-faced?
That was either the Portuguese colonizers or the anti-Habsburgs.

Luo Sigong nodded slightly, and continued to ask: "What did they do to you, why are you so angry?"

The tribal chief couldn't help but said angrily: "They lied to us."

Uh, what's wrong with lying to you?
Cheating is commonplace for those colonial robbers, and it's good that they didn't just wipe you out.

Luo Sigong was a little surprised and said: "What did they lie to you?"

The tribal chief couldn't help but said a lot angrily.

Uh, don't be so excited, speak slowly!
The elder of the North American Indian tribe pondered carefully for a while before explaining: "He seems to say that the Portuguese colonists lied to them that as long as they work for others, they can eat delicious food and they are guaranteed to be full.

As a result, they were fooled, and they didn't eat very well when they went to help others, but they could barely eat enough.

The work they asked them to do was exhausting, and they wouldn't let them go until they were done.

As a result, several young and strong people in their tribe died of exhaustion from working for others, but they said that this person had a physical problem and died of illness. "

Oh, why are you so easy to deceive?

Luo Sigong took a deep breath, and then couldn't help asking curiously: "What are they feeding you?"

The tribal chief immediately picked up the corn cobs in the bowl and explained: "What they give us is the core in the middle of this kind of thing and the soup stewed with some bones. If we are not full, we have to find it by ourselves." Put some wild vegetables in and cook together."

My God, the so-called delicious food for a long time is the corn cobs with the corn kernels removed and the bones left over from eating by others!

Luo Sigong thought for a while, and then asked: "Why did they invite you to go?"

The tribal chief thought about it carefully, and then said vaguely: "They asked us to do too much work, sometimes cutting down trees, especially big and difficult trees.

Sometimes it was digging, and the digging was endless.

Sometimes it is cutting those sweet things, or this kind of thing, and they have to carry them back after cutting, which is exhausting.

Many people in our tribe were exhausted and sick. As a result, several people did not survive and died. "

Are these Portuguese colonists too dark-hearted?

You ask someone to do this kind of exhausting work, at least give them some food that normal people eat!
The corncobs and the bones you left after eating are worthless. I guess you let others pick up the firewood for cooking the soup yourself. You are nothing but empty-handed wolves!
The problem is, you just let others work hard for you with these worthless things!
Well, you are so bad, aren't you?

It just so happens that your badness can reflect our goodness.

Luo Sigong thought for a while, then raised his hand and said: "Well, I see, I will help you clean up those yellow-haired and white-faced guys, you can eat first.

You are welcome, eat whatever you want, eat as much as you want.

From now on, as long as you follow us, we will ensure that you can eat these delicious foods every day and keep yourself full.

Don't worry, we won't let you do that kind of exhausting work.

You can see later what they are doing. "

Hearing this, the tribal chief quickly ate it with gratitude, and when the other naked men saw this, they ate it even more voraciously.

It took a long time to eat this meal, because there were several teams of people and horses bringing people from the southern tribe over one after another.

People in primitive tribes are the ones who can eat, let alone those who have been hungry for a long time and have never eaten such delicious food.

They are still licking their mouths after eating all the food left in the pot.

Well, they wouldn't make too much extra, after all, it would be wasted if they were not finished. The weather here can't even keep raw ones for long, and if they are cooked, they will go bad after a long time.

Therefore, they cook every meal just enough to eat.

Suddenly, several groups of people who can eat came here. Naturally, there was not enough food. Even if some people deliberately gave in and ate less, it was still not enough for the people from the primitive tribes in the south.

Seeing this, Luo Sigong had no choice but to order people to cook a few more pots, such as fish, beef, corn on the cob, etc., until they couldn't hold on to the food, and then he ordered people to call a few tribal chiefs who came over, Sitting cross-legged on the ground, they chatted.

As for the others, let's rest first. Anyway, the people from the southern tribe have found it, and they can understand the basic situation there. They don't have to rush to repair the road.

He chatted with these tribal chiefs for a while, and finally got a good understanding of the basic situation of the southern colonies.

It turned out that the colonies in the south were much more developed than the original Natal.

The Portuguese colonists over there opened quite a lot of farms, and the area of ​​the farms was much larger than the original farms in Natal.

They not only cut down mahogany, planted cash crops such as corn and sugar cane, but also raised a lot of livestock and poultry such as cattle and sheep.

There are also a lot of people there, at least tens of thousands of Portuguese alone, and there are also black people who are chained to work.

This situation is a bit more complicated.

It seems that this road cannot be driven south for the time being.

If you continue to drive south, you may accidentally drive to someone's farm.

Luo Sigong thought carefully for a while, and ordered the elite scouts who brought them back to take them around first, take a good rest, and bring some food back with them tomorrow, ask them to lead the way, and take them to investigate the details of the colonists over there. Happening.

Immediately afterwards, he summoned the troops from the Shenwu Battalion to start work.

However, this time they no longer advanced forward, but spread out in all directions.

Luo Sigong is going to clear out an open space, move all the camp tents here, and build a decent camp here.

At this moment, their tents were built along both sides of the road, with a total of only 2 horses, but the tents they built stretched for more than ten miles.

This will definitely not work, the staff is too scattered, if there is any unexpected situation, I am afraid it will be too late to notify everyone.

Amidst the roar of the machines, the soldiers of the Shenwu Battalion took the lead in starting work.

Those tribes from the south were shocked when they saw the scene of their work.

What kind of strange giant is this, the speed of cutting down trees is too fast, right?
They only saw that huge monster slowly approaching a big tree with a thick waist, and then it snapped, and the tree fell down!

If such a big tree were to be cut down by them, they might not stop cutting it all day.

Also, the knife in someone's hand is too sharp, whether it's a branch as thick as an arm or a tree as thick as an arm, it can be chopped off with just a few knives.

This thing is many times sharper than the knives and axes provided by those yellow-haired and white-faced people.

Also, the tribe here is young and strong, and the work for them is too easy.

What these people do is to dig tree stumps and fill them with soil.

A dozen people gathered around a tree stump, cut off the roots, pulled out the whole tree stump, filled it with soil and compacted it.

Each group of ten or so people can sit down and rest for a while after digging out a tree stump, and even have that kind of sweet tea to drink, until someone comes to tell them to dig another tree stump, they will get up and continue working !

It's too easy, everyone basically chops with a knife or an ax for a while, or digs with a hoe for a while, and then it's done.

Digging out tree stumps is such a bit of work, and more than a dozen people work together to dig out one, it's like playing!
Also, the herbal tea they drink tastes good, and they feel very comfortable after drinking it.

Originally, they had walked such a long way and ate so much food, and they were a little uncomfortable with the heat.

Unexpectedly, after drinking the herbal tea and sitting under the shade of a tree to rest, the feeling of discomfort disappeared.

In short, this afternoon, they saw too many incredible things.

The most unbelievable thing is that in one afternoon, people opened up an open space that can accommodate 2 people. The trees that were cut out were piled up like a mountain, and it was not a single mountain but several rows of mountains.

The speed at which these people cut down trees and trees is simply unimaginable.

After finishing the work, everyone cooperated to cook again.

In the evening, it was another big meal.

This time, though, the goodies got a lot more.

Not only the fish and meat eaten at noon, but also dried meat and fish, the taste is simply not very good.

Luo Sigong also had no choice, they had brought enough food and brought a lot of cattle, so they just killed them now.

Fish can only be pulled by Qing Zhuang, a North American Indian tribe who pulls wood.

Moreover, you can't pull too much every day.

Because these fish can't live long even if they are kept in water. If there are too many, they will die and stink.

And these young and strong primitive tribes from the south can eat one by one. Not only do they eat a few more pots of beef and fresh fish at noon, but they can continue to eat at night.

There is no way, there is not enough fresh fish, so he can only take out the spare beef jerky and fish jerky to make for others to eat.
