Chapter 200 Short Holidays

Hong Tao felt that it was not safe. If it turned into a culture and a cannon, he felt that it would be much more reliable. ←, it is still in the state of a primitive tribal state, and it is just a piece of white paper. As long as you have enough ability, you can draw on the white paper. Why not try it? Think about it a few years later, I will come to Cape Town again. There are blue brick courtyards everywhere. People on the street are wearing Zhongshan outfits. No matter the black and white skin, they will ask when they meet: Have you eaten? It seems to be quite fun. As for whether you can achieve this goal, it doesn’t matter. Just move forward to the present. There is time, play slowly.

"I understand, understand! I am already doing this, but I am not thinking about it thoroughly. When exchanging items with them, I am slowly guiding them to speak the master's divine words. The Chinese language instructions are closer to God, the exchange price is cheaper, and if it is not far away from God, it is more expensive..." Matini blinked his little eyes and reported his work achievements to Hong Tao.

"Old Mai... No, it's Governor Mai, you deserve this title! Treat this land as your home, marry more wives, have more children, and live here for generations. In the future, I will erect a large statue for you on that sacred mountain so that everyone who comes here can remember your achievements. You not only create a city here, but also create your own family. As long as they abide by the rules of our Jinhewan, they will rule here for generations. This is our private agreement, and I only have these things to reward you. Do you think the transaction between us is fair?" Hong Tao looked at the fat black man beside him, and he really lamented that he had a good life and could meet someone who was not very ambitious and willing to work diligently everywhere.

Mettini contributed much more to Cape Town than himself. He created a development method that is different from Jinhewan but most suitable, at least he agrees with his method. What kind of ideology and system are all technologies used by people to manage the group. This technology is used, and technology cannot be used in turn to restrict people. Mettini can implement his own understanding and combine several systems. It seems that it is very effective at present, and this is talent! For such talents, Hong Tao is more willing to become partners with them rather than superiors and subordinates, which will imprison their thoughts.

"The master should be the statue on the sacred mountain. I have set up a small one next to me to help the master guard this land for generations... Hehehe..." Metini understood. This was the promise Hong Tao gave him. As long as he and his descendants did not betray Jinhewan or Hong Tao, the land would belong to him and his family. Don't say that kings are not kings, at least one tribal leader has not run away. What are the tribal leaders in the Arab world? Metini has never seen them, that is the little king! He is definitely a kind of existence in his own acre of three-point land, and all he needs to pay is loyalty. He thinks this deal is worth it.

"Then let's make a vow. Whoever breaks this vow in the future will be eaten by the whale!" Hong Tao was even happier than Metine. With this guy in Cape Town, he could worry less. As for what he would do to South Africa's land, that's a story later. What he needs at present is just a reliable stronghold here as a base for his journey to Europe.

"Bang!" When the two hands were slapped together, neither Hong Tao nor Matini thought about what this clapping meant and how great the effect was.

As usual, Hong Tao did not spend the night on the shore. It was not that he was worried about Mettini, but that the cabin was much more comfortable than the small wooden houses on the shore. Although Cape Town Port developed very quickly, it was hurriedly established from a deserted area. The main work was to have a variety of food, feed the population more, and exchange it for resources. Other aspects had not yet developed. Even the Governor's Mansion in Mettini had been transformed from one floor to two floors, except for snacks and more gems. Other conditions were not much better than the places where slaves lived.

Early the next morning, an expedition team of more than 100 people set off. Hong Tao's men were all riding horses. Matini's figure was not riding a horse, so he still sat on his throne and was carried on a walk by a group of slaves. The team was going to patrol. Survey the territory of Cape Town, just like a lion who wanted to go around the boundary from time to time. However, this time it was not to show off his power. Hong Tao's main purpose was to take Hong Yu and Jiang Zhuyi to see what the land of Africa looked like. This place was not an ecological environment with Asia.

After two years of domestication, the Arabian horses transported from Kabaram have completely adapted to the climate and food of South Africa. In fact, this place is much richer than their hometowns, and there are prairie everywhere. As long as you are prepared for any damn thieves and hyenas, no matter which horse comes here, you will feel comfortable.

"This is a white rhino, very powerful. Look at the big horns on its head, the lion dares not mess with it." Hong Yu also has been having enough fun with Hong Tao in the Nanning Military Horse Farm since she was a child. Riding a horse is not a difficult task for her, but she just has to choose a smaller pony to ride. She is very fascinated by the African continent because there are many animals and plants here, which are what she likes.

"It's on the nose, its horn is on the nose!" Hong Yu held a drawing board and was drawing everything she saw. She did not passively accept Hong Tao's explanation, but raised objections from time to time.

"That's either the nose, it's its head... Looking closely, its small eyes are on both sides of the nose you mentioned." In fact, Hong Tao likes this kind of life the most. He takes a group of people around for no reason and tells them what they don't know but they know. Finally, he understands them and feels a strong sense of accomplishment. Unfortunately, no one comes to create such conditions for himself, and he can only do it himself, but when the conditions come out, he doesn't have time to experience it. It's a contradiction!

"What are those big trees called? Why are their trunks so thick and their leaves so few?" Not only Hong Yu was interested in these things, Jiang Zhuyi was also fascinated by the wild natural environment in Africa. He and Hong Yu were stuck Hong Tao in the left and right. After asking here, he asked there, so he would not let Hong Tao be idle anyway.

"That's called a baobab tree. There are many gaps in its trunk. When the dry season comes and the grassland does not rain, it will survive with the moisture in the trunk. Less leaves can reduce the speed of water evaporation. This is called natural evolution. No one designs it for them. Whether it is plants or animals, they will slowly change some of their physiological characteristics according to their living environment." In fact, Hong Tao's most suitable job is to do the teacher. He can teach students endlessly, explain each question in depth, and enjoy it.

"Then why is it called a baobab? It doesn't look like a monkey or a bread?" Hong Yu was not very satisfied with Hong Tao's explanation, and further raised her questions.

"Hehe... It's not yet time for it to bear fruit. In two months, fruits as big as your head will grow on it. From a distance, it looks like the bread you stuffed with your mother toasted for you. Then many monkeys come to eat the fruits on the tree, just like you eat bread!" However, Hong Tao's broken mouth is not suitable for being a teacher. He says everything, and he likes to joke, and doesn't even let his daughter go.

"Bad Dad, I'm not a monkey!" Hong Yu was influenced by Hong Tao since childhood and reacted very smartly, and soon heard the meaning of the words.

"Hehe...Miss Jiang, do you want to see what its flowers look like? Old Mai, find someone to pick a flower." Hong Tao smiled and turned his face to Jiang Zhuyi, and then a black man ran to a baobab tree with a flying stairs. He inserted his short dagger in one hand and took turns to the trunk, and quickly climbed to the top of the tree. The wood of this kind of baobab tree is very soft, with a trunk of more than one meter in diameter, and can use a rifle bullet to punch a transparent hole.

"Bah! Dingtu… take it away!" Soon, the black guy picked up a few flowers from the baobab tree, some of which were open and those that were not open. Hong Tao specially picked a flower that was not open and sent to Jiang Zhuyi. Jiang Zhuyi only glanced at the flower that was not smiling, and saw Hong Tao's smiley face immediately understood what Hong Tao meant, and threw the flower that was directly on Hong Tao's face, and then rode to the front.

"..." The flowers of the baobab tree are very big, more than one foot long, and the flowers are like a big banana, and there is a circle of dents on its head, which looks very similar to the ones of men. In the last life, Hong Tao has been to Africa and took photos of the flowers of the baobab tree and put them on the forum to joke. Regarding Hong Tao's ability to make no sense of style and young women, Metini and Luo Youde could only give out their thumbs to express their praise, and they must smile more obscene than Hong Tao to express their admiration.

Unfortunately, Hong Tao can't enjoy this kind of relaxing day of fun for a few days, and he still has a lot of things to be done. Those Dabao whitening cream, Dabao lipstick paste, lead alloy utensils, and high-end fashions must be further improved and finalized, and then some are produced in small quantities using the craftsmen and workshops in the Port of Cape Town. This time, when I went to Europe, I just sent Carl home, Hong Tao felt it was too wasteful. Two boats and hundreds of people gave him one person, which was even bigger than the King's Book! If not, I had to grab a rabbit and get some benefits for Jinhewan to be willing to do so.
