Are you going to Sanjiang? Not bad, I will try my best to update it every day in the past two days!

------------------------------------------------------------- of

After wandering outside for more than ten days, classmate Shu Zhong from the geological exploration team finally returned to the city to get supplies. Adhering to the Chinese nature of joining in the fun, he also ran to this stall, and then... this guy's eyes were wide open.

The green one pounced directly on the little girl's straight skirt.

The other party was naturally angry, but as soon as Shu Zhong came closer, he was grabbed by Jack. He could not touch the other party, but his two hands still stretched straight up the girl's skirt, making no attempt to conceal his criminal intention.

.

Dr. Jack Henderson is not only an expert in cardiac surgery, but also has a PhD in psychology, so he was not angry at Shu Zhong's behavior.

"Poor Shu, I know you are very horny, we all are the same. But... at least don't be so obvious. Aren't the Chinese very particular about being subtle in this regard?"

"**, what a mess! It's saltpeter! That girl's skirt is covered with saltpeter!"

Shu Zhong shouted angrily, and everyone immediately burst into an uproar. More than ten pairs of eyes immediately looked at the girl's straight skirt, which frightened the girl.

The clothes of Li girls are very decorated. Whether it is headscarves, tops or skirts, they are all inlaid with gold and silver foil, mica flakes, sequins, feathers... and even shells, beads, copper coins, silver bells or tassels.

The way it started can be said to be "vibrant" and full of effects.

This little girl's skirt was decorated with several strings of translucent beads. They were not pearls, but seemed to be ground out of stones. No one noticed it at first, but when Shu Zhong called out, everyone took notice.

After everyone's persuasion, the girl finally agreed to take off the beads and show them to them. The condition was that Old Jack gave her the cup in exchange - only one, and the whole silver necklace was exchanged. What a group of simple people.

He took out a magnifying glass from his backpack and pretended to put on rubber gloves... At this time, Shu Zhong looked like a drug dealer. He carefully observed the small light yellow and slightly glassy stone beads for a long time, and even stuck out his tongue to lick them.

After licking it, he finally nodded firmly:

"That's right, it's a very pure natural drug. Where did they get it from? Are they willing to exchange things with us?"

…………

The subsequent negotiations were presided over by Jie Xi himself. The Li people probably realized that the goods in their hands were very attractive, so they asked a young man who looked like a leader to come forward to negotiate. The little girl

But she got entangled with Shu Zhong again - staring at him and wanting to play with the magnifying glass in his hand, especially after Shu Zhong showed her how to use the magnifying glass to focus sunlight to burn ants, the little girl squatted in the corner and had a great time playing

.

The negotiation started smoothly. The people on the Chuanhua team were very sincere and wanted to get the saltpeter at all costs. The people in the chemistry team had long hated the days of boiling shit every day. Li Jingcheng simply sat aside to supervise the execution of the negotiations.

He also repeatedly asked to be dismissed and took the initiative to lower the conditions, turning him into a bastard who sat on his back!

Fortunately, the Li people had no intention of making a big start. During the conversation, they told them frankly: These stones were also dug out from the salt-producing cave. This cave is the most valuable property in the entire Li village, so they cannot

Outsiders are allowed to dig in. However, the stones themselves are of little use to them. Apart from being used by some children to grind beads because of their beautiful translucent color, Li Village itself does not care about these things and does not know what they are worth.

Take the initiative to tell the negotiating opponent that the goods in my hands are not valuable. Such good qualities can no longer be found in modern business negotiations. However, Jie Xi did not intend to kill the opponent because of this. When discussing the bottom line and countermeasures of the negotiation in advance, he

We made an agreement with Pang Yu, Professor Li and others: Try to build a good relationship with these Li people. Deception can only succeed for a short time, but the demand for zha medicine among the traveling people is long-term.

Of course, Jie Xi would not take the initiative to tell the other party how important these stones are to us. He just said lightly that he hoped to reach a long-term agreement: Li Village can often provide them with such stones, or allow them to mine them themselves.

As for what to exchange, everyone can discuss it.

I thought that with the many modern products on the ship, it was not a trivial matter to deceive several Ming Dynasty ethnic minorities. However, the result was that the travelers were greatly disappointed - although the Li people showed little interest in the small things such as lighters and glass mirrors they showed

They were very tempted, but they were not willing to exchange the salt cave, which was related to the livelihood of the whole family. As for using the labor force of the Li people to dig stones for the Han people, they were not even willing to mention it.

The negotiations were temporarily deadlocked, but Jie Xi has been in society for several years and is very experienced in this kind of thing. During the lunch break, everyone was arranged to have a meal and socialize. Several bottles of Wuliangye collected in the ship's kitchen were taken out, and Master Li came from

I selected ingredients from the game collected in the morning and made a table of delicious dishes...

The essence of five thousand years of Chinese civilization is vividly reflected on the wine table. After a few glasses of extremely high-alcohol liquor, the language barrier, the differences between Han and Li... all went to the horizon. A few modern young men and the Ming Dynasty

The Li people called each other brothers and sisters, and said words that the other could not understand at all, but they were still laughing happily.

However, it was the foreigner Jack who finally made up his mind to cooperate with the Li people. After hearing that saltpeter and rock salt came from the same cave, he immediately asked the Li people whether poisoning incidents often occurred in the village. He also listed a series of symptoms casually.

: Such as headache and dizziness, fatigue, chest tightness, shortness of breath and heart palpitations, nausea and vomiting, abdominal pain, diarrhea and bloating, and purple skin all over the body. In severe cases, irritability, listlessness, slow reaction, loss of consciousness, convulsions, coma, respiratory failure... and even death.

The description of a series of symptoms made the Li people jump in shock, and several people cried bitterly on the spot - they had relatives who died like this, and Jack's description was as if he had witnessed it with his own eyes.

So the Li people immediately surrounded this magical big man with blue eyes and asked about the reason. However, this time the old slicker and the old iron crocodile tried their best to translate the term "nitrite poisoning" into the Li dialect.

It took them a long time to finally understand that these symptoms were related to the stones in the cave. The salt was contaminated by saltpeter and was poisonous.

Of course they also asked Jack how to detoxify, but the term the foreigner used this time even Lao Hua Tou and others did not understand at all - methylene blue injection. This stuff is not even available in the ship's infirmary, so even telling the Li people would be useless.

.

Later, local doctor Lao Shi introduced several folk remedies - eating more fruits, relying on vitamin C to relieve some of the toxicity, or adopting more barbaric surgical methods - inducing vomiting, gastric lavage, diuresis and other methods. But they can only

To deal with those whose poisoning is not deep or the time is relatively short.

Jie Xi was originally a little worried. The two doctors talking about the problem of poisonous salt in this environment seemed to be deceiving. After all, they had just been negotiating to get the mining rights of the salt cave. However, the reaction of the Li people was very

Directly, they gathered together to discuss for a long time, and finally expressed their willingness to consider transferring the ore in the salt cave.

Later I found out: This village has been suffering from poisoning for many years. Many people have long suspected that it is related to salt. However, this cave is the only source of salt in Li Village. It is impossible for them not to eat salt. In addition, there are witches in the village.

The holy man always attributed the poisoning to the gods' punishment, so the matter has been delayed.

These young people who come out to trade are the smarter ones in the village. They have long disbelieved in the witch's claims, but they can't produce convincing evidence. Now the man with blue eyes not only told them that rock salt is poisonous, but also accurately stated

After knowing the symptoms, causes, and even treatments, they couldn’t help but not believe it.

With this breakthrough, everything is easier to handle. Jie Xi took over everything with a wave of his hand - from now on, we will provide the entire supply of salt in Li Village! It was agreed that in the future, daily necessities including grain, refined salt and other daily necessities will be exchanged with Li Village.

Planting stones makes both parties happy.

The final agreement was signed at the wine table. When the judge signed the document, he saw that the leader cut his arm, covered his palm with blood, and then slapped the document directly. Seeing the time traveler here,

Everyone was stunned, but the Li people laughed loudly, and then stared at them blankly - waiting for them to also press the bloody fingerprints!

There was nothing he could do. Old Jie gritted his teeth and closed his eyes, thinking that he was going to take blood for a physical examination! When he also cut his arm, the Li man actually came close to the wound on his arm. Old Jack was shocked and shouted "blood contamination", and then continued

Pray these natives don't have AIDS.

After signing the agreement, the Li people didn't ask for copies. They left happily and drunk one by one. The old solution didn't even have time to talk to them about the specific cooperation steps. The pretty and cute little Li girl finally left, and before leaving, she

She stared longingly at Shu Zhong's magnifying glass, but she had nothing to exchange for it, and Shu Zhong only had a piece of food, so it was not easy to give it away.

We had just seen off the guests here, and over there Hu Wen angrily led the women's army to attack and ask for punishment. Two days ago, these stinky men were scolding the girls for causing trouble and holding them back, but now they are using the guise of negotiation to engage in corruption and feast on each other.

Drink, wanton squandering of collective property is intolerable!

But when Hu Wen rushed to the yard in front, she saw Pang Yu and Xi Xi holding a big tree and vomiting uncontrollably. There were several circles of bandages on Xi Xi's arm, and blood was faintly oozing from it. Now

This eldest sister always had all kinds of dissatisfaction and it was hard to get out, so in the end she had no choice but to leave in anger.

Seeing that she was gone, Pang Yu quietly lowered the finger on her throat.

"Ahem, Lao Jie, this trick of putting your fingers on your throat is really effective. If you want to vomit, just vomit!"

"Hehe, back then I relied on this unique trick to keep a thousand glasses of wine at the wine table. From the boss to the contractor, I solved a lot of troubles."

"It's a pity that this good meal was wasted... Let's go and see if there are any rice balls left in the kitchen."

"Let's go together..."
