I'll hang you up

Regarding the situation there, Zhou Ming just wanted to curse. That day, Jefferson, who was a dog, had a cheat, otherwise why did he run from Molia to the Indian tribe in Pansas yesterday and just had a good sleep. Jefferson's people came to the door.

Perhaps those clothes were just coincidental with Jefferson's private army's uniform. Zhou Ming wanted to be like this, but this was impossible. As someone who had survived death under Jefferson's army, Zhou Ming still remembers Jefferson's private army. Now Zhou Ming is on the windowsill, he can see at a glance that those people are wearing Jefferson's private army's uniforms. The yellow color, Zhou Ming will never admit his mistake.

Now those people are at the front of the village in Tukant, and in front of them are Indian chief Flegg and dozens of strong Indians.

However, it seemed that the Indians were crowded and the Indians led were still holding hunting rifles. However, the overall situation was that the few private soldiers with few people had the upper hand. They were constantly moving forward, while the Indians were constantly retreating.

Finally, Flag roared, not knowing what he shouted, all the Indians stopped, and the soldiers there stopped, and they didn't know what they were talking about, so the soldiers finally left.

Seeing the soldiers leaving, Liu Qiangguo from the Desert Squad said: I didn't expect these Indians to be so loyal. We just bought some of their corn, and they risked their lives to help us turn all the soldiers out.

However, he shook his head and said: Although it seems like this, I always feel that things are not that simple. Besides, we don’t understand what they say. We have to wait until the hyena wakes up and asks us to find out. I hope the result will not be so bad.

As he talked to Liu Qiangguo, he focused his eyes on Zhou Ming and waited for Zhou Ming to make a decision. Zhou Ming looked at the Indians who had not dispersed below, and it took him a while before he could wake up the hyena.

For these special forces, this task is easy to complete. He poured a basin of cold water on the face of the hyena, and he woke up immediately. Originally, the hyena had subconsciously thought that there was an attack to attack, but she was prepared and directly grabbed his joints. The hyena suddenly let out a howl like a pig killing: It hurts, Master, please spare your life.

Then he released the hyena, and the hyena muttered like a young wife who was wronged: Master, what are you doing? You don’t let people sleep early in the morning

He slapped him in anger: You are mumbling something, don't you know Jefferson's private army is coming

Hearing this news, the hyena jumped up in surprise, widened her eyes and asked: "Master, you didn't lie to me, are you? We just arrived in Tucante, and they chased after me. This is too exaggerated, it makes no sense."

But that's the truth. Zhou Ming walked in and told him that Jefferson's private soldiers had arrived just now, but they were driven away by the Indians later. What they said was not understood by us, so we called you up to find out the situation.

When the Hyena heard Zhou Ming say this, his expression became solemn. He nodded and then got up. When they went out, they met Carlos. It was obvious that Carlos heard the movement in the Hyena's room and got up immediately.

They quickly ran downstairs to the entrance of the village, where Flegg and the other Indians were still frowning. When they saw Zhou Ming and the others came down, they just smiled reluctantly, and there was no longer the joy from the heart that they had yesterday.

Sorry, dear guests, what happened so early has woken you up. Flegg took the initiative to apologize.

Zhou Ming waved his hand: It would be too exaggerated to say that apologize or something. We just want to ask what happened just now

Faced with this problem, Flegg seemed a little embarrassed: In fact, it was nothing, it was just coming to us to ask for debts.

Zhou Ming and they were both surprised and were both relieved, but they were surprised. Fortunately, they didn't come to find them, otherwise Jefferson's information ability would be too amazing.

It is because the corn and cocoa seeds we are heavily heavily this year were bought with money from them to borrow. It was originally agreed to pay off the debt with the corn harvest, but because the rainfall this year is less than before and it has been hit by insect disasters. The corn production was originally lower than before. In addition, they deliberately lowered the purchase price, so we could not pay off their loans at all, and they had to take our women and children to pay off the debt. Fleig said.

For Flegg's words, Hyena stopped doing it at the time: Where did these damn miscellaneous things come from, but they dare to pay their debts with women and children? Do they still have any laws in their eyes?

The hyena felt indignant, but Flag sighed and said: There is no way to do this. Who can't afford to pay back the money? We did this in the past, but this year we died and ran away because of the plague at the beginning of the year. The remaining labor force in Tucante was not enough, so we cannot let them take away women and children.

When Hyena and Carlos heard what he said, they immediately asked Zhou Ming to take money out to help them. Zhou Ming asked them: It’s easy for me to take money, but it’s helpful this year. Next year and next year, this is a treatment of symptoms but not the root cause.

After Zhou Ming's replies, Hyena and Carlos were silent. Zhou Ming came out and asked Fleig: Chief Fleig, how much money do you owe? Who are you? Why did you borrow money to buy seeds and plant land? What is the interest you agreed upon?

Zhou Ming's every question is directed at the critical point, but compared to these questions, Flegg's answer surprised him even more.

They are from the Pansas City Trading Company, and they are responsible for sowing and purchasing all the crops such as corn and cocoa. The company is very powerful. They even have their own mercenary organizations, and the government and the police don’t care about theirs. Flag said that when we first borrowed money, we borrowed 100,000 and got 80,000, and finally paid back 480,000 after the harvest.

Hearing the number they said, Zhou Ming and the others shocked. The Hyena immediately said: I'm just robbing money. Do you agree to this condition?

We didn't want to agree, but if we didn't agree, we would have no money to buy seeds, and we wouldn't be able to plant corn? Then all the people in our village would starve to death. Flegg said.

Then you can keep some seeds yourself, why do you have to buy seeds? Liu Qiangguo asked.

Flegg shook his head and replied: It's useless. We have tried to keep some seeds before, but they must have tampered with them. The seeds we left behind were just not able to plant corn. As a result, we were forced to sell ten women and children that year, and later we didn't dare to try it again.

After hearing this, Zhou Ming had fully understood this economic model. Simply put, Jefferson's trading company completely controlled these Indians through loans and seeds. In order to survive, these Indians could only desperately borrow money from trading companies to buy seeds, and then harvest them to repay loans and interest. They would recycle them again next year and repeat them over and over again.

This is not a shitty trading company at all. They simply regard themselves as slave owners. They waved their whip called Loan and drove you all to work for them. Carlos said.

We are not slaves Flegg yelled, we are just poor now, I am already trying to get rid of their acquisition, I will sell our corn to more places, so we can sell more money, and then we save a little more ourselves, and one day we will get rid of those damn loans

With Flegg's words, the other Indians cheered loudly, as if they had seen a wonderful tomorrow.

At this time, Zhou Ming said to them: Chief Flegg, I am not trying to suppress your enthusiasm. I can tell you responsibly that the day you are looking forward to will never come. As long as your seeds are bought in the hands of a trading company, they can control your annual corn production through seeds so that you will not have any surplus.

Zhou Ming gave Flegg a huge blow. Flegg covered his head with his hands and shook his head in pain and said: It's impossible, why can't this happen? We have worked so hard, why can't we escape the control of the trading company?

Fleger's painful words spread to other Indians, and they all showed despair, and some even burst into tears.

Suddenly Flegg remembered something, he looked up at Zhou Ming and said: Mr. Zhou Ming, I heard from the little brother Carlos that you are a big man from the United States, so you must have a way to do it right. Please, you must save us Indians. You appear at this time, and you are so smart. It must be sent by the gods to save us.

Flegg said as he knelt down for Zhou Ming. As Flegg said, the other Indians also knelt down to Zhou Ming, and immediately knelt down to Zhou Ming, and they were still begging each one. Although they were talking about the Indian language Zhou Ming and didn't understand, Zhou Ming knew that they must beg for him.

It feels very pleasant to be kneeled by people, especially so many people, but it is also a headache.

As the saying goes, capturing the king first, so if you want these people to get up, you must let Flegg get up first. So Zhou Ming stepped forward and helped Flegg up and said: Chief Flegg, it’s not that I don’t want to help you. We can now take out 600,000 to repay the loan for you, and there is still the remaining money to buy seeds for next year, but this cannot change the status quo. If you want to change, you have to rely on yourself.
