Carrying AK into Ming Dynasty

Chapter 762 Indians
"Huh?" Liu Hongjian suddenly felt that the painting style was wrong.

The person Zhuge Kongming sounds so high-end and upscale, how did the same surname become Zhuge Tieniu when he came to you?
Whoever came up with the name is simply ruining the name of Zhuge God of War.

"Then what's your father's name?" Liu Hongjian was still a little unwilling to give up.

"Back to the lord, my father's name is Zhuge Zhuang." Zhuge Tieniu didn't know why the lord was interested in him and his father's name, but he didn't dare to say it honestly.

"Oh, by the way, how many rubber tree seeds did you bring back this time?" Liu Hongjian decided to skip this topic, he was worried that a Zhuge crab would pop up again later.

"Go back to my lord, there are quite a few. My lord, look, that boat is full of rubber tree seeds, and the other three ships are full of latex left over from the rubber tree." Zhuge Tieniu said.

Hearing this, Liu Hongjian boarded the ship directly to check, and saw that there were indeed boxes of rubber tree seeds stored in the cabin, neatly arranged, weighing hundreds of catties.

"Good! Good!" Liu Hongjian patted Zhuge Tieniu's shoulder excitedly, and said two good words.

Rubber tree is indeed one of the tree species with the highest economic value, and the extraction process is not complicated.

Cut a hole on the bark, let the latex containing rubber ooze out, collect the latex, put it in water for two days at room temperature and boil it, take it out and wash it, it will be natural rubber, if it is reprocessed, it can be Further production of tools such as tires.

Needless to say, the tires alone are enough to change Daming's existing travel tools.

With tires, the horse-drawn carriage no longer needs to be unbearable with bumpy internal organs. With tires, it may be time to hand over the design ideas of bicycles to craftsmen.

The cement road running through the north and south has been repaired. Think about it, when the bicycle came out, a group of soldiers wearing Ming Dynasty costumes, carrying muskets on their backs, and swords on their waists, were riding bicycles through the city.

If a turban is tied on the head, does it look like a low-end version of the enemy's armed forces?
Perhaps the horse-drawn carriage will soon be eliminated. The kid named Sun Yunqiu in the Ordnance Institute has to be well-trained. Internal gas, internal gas, as soon as you come out, I can make a car.

Although it is the core of a tractor, it is more attractive than a horse-drawn carriage, isn't it?
Hehe—hehe—Liu Hongjian was caught in the longing for the future and couldn't extricate himself.

"My lord, my lord?" Zhuge Tieniu felt that this lord seemed to be out of his mind, so he grabbed a handful of rubber tree seeds and smiled foolishly, like a fool.

"Huh? What?"

"My lord, these tree species and latex are thanks to Aragorn, otherwise we wouldn't be able to get so many." Zhuge Tieniu thought for a while.

"Aragorn... who is Aragorn, Aladdin's uncle?" Liu Hongjian asked casually without being annoyed by the interruption.

"He is the leader of a small tribe on the west coast of South Merika. He is on our boat now. Would you like to see him? He has traveled thousands of miles to meet you!" Zhuge Tieniu said enthusiastically. .

"Aborigines, why do aborigines want to come to Daming? They still want to see the king?" Liu Hongjian asked in bewilderment.

"No! You must have taken advantage of someone, right?" Liu Hongjian glanced at Zhuge Tieniu and said.

"Where can it be, my lord, the first purpose of our trip to Melika is for the rubber tree seeds, isn't it?

But we are not familiar with the place there, and there are poisonous snakes and spiders everywhere. Without the help of Aragorn, we might not be able to come back! "Zhuge Tieniu was told what was on his mind, and hurriedly explained embarrassingly.

"Well, since they have come all the way, let's bring them here!" Liu Hongjian said angrily.

He doesn't worry about these subordinates making money outside, as long as they can do things and know how to do things, he doesn't care. After all, it's not so easy to mess around outside, and they all depend on the salary, who will work for you.

Liu Hongjian ordered Zhang Weixian to quickly unload the seeds of the rubber tree, and sent someone to transport them to the headquarters of Xishan Commercial Cooperation in the capital, and then got off the boat. The smell in the cabin was really not beautiful.

After a while, seven or eight melicans with chicken feathers (maybe feathers from other birds) on their heads and coarse robes came over, and bowed down to salute Liu Hongjian under Zhuge Tieniu's instructions.

"Are you Aragorn?" Liu Hongjian said to the young man with the most feathers standing in front.

This person was about the same age as Liu Hongjian, with a burly body and a yellow complexion.

Indians?Liu Hongjian frowned immediately.

He knew that the Indians belonged to the yellow race, and that the ancestors of the Indians crossed the Bering Strait from the Far East, but he didn't expect these people to run so far.

Aragorn naturally couldn't understand what Liu Hongjian said, but Zhuge Tieniu was gesticulating at the side, so Aragorn not only understood it, but even began to gesticulate.

"My lord, he said he is Aragorn. He hoped that you must visit Merika. It is a good place with gold." Zhuge Tieniu acted as the interpreter.

Dare to feel that Merriga didn't run in vain, and even learned sign language.

"Of course this king knows that there is gold there, you ask him, are there many Francines over there?" Liu Hongjian said.

Zhuge Tieniu immediately made another gesture, Aragorn looked at Liu Hongjian, and seemed a little disappointed. He thought that the ruler of Ming Dynasty would be greedy for gold, but he didn't see it.

"Yes, my lord, their hometown has been occupied by the Franglers, and I met a lot of Franglers soldiers there, and they almost went off with their guns!" Zhuge Tieniu said.

"You ask him, what exactly is he going to do in Daming? Do he need Daming's help?"

Liu Hongjian saw that the young Indian leader was not like an ordinary person. Although he couldn't understand the language, Liu Hongjian could tell just by looking at his eyes, the eyes were very deep.

"He said that he had long heard that there was a great country in the far east, and he just wanted to see it. He hoped to learn from our Great Ming." Zhuge Tieniu frowned.

Zhuge Tieniu knew that the prince didn't like foreigners learning from Ming Dynasty, and there were no other foreigners in Xishan Shanghe except the first few Europeans.

And Juan and Franz were only in contact with the development of warships and firearms, and they were not involved in other aspects. Liu Hongjian even issued a strict order. Without his order, the two were not allowed to leave the territory of the Ming Dynasty. .

"It's easy to say, let them stay in Daming for the time being, Lao Zhang, you can arrange a place to live, board and lodging will be fully covered, except for the Xishan ordnance base, and they will be allowed to visit the capital and its vicinity." Liu Hongjian directly told the British public Zhang Wei said first.

Liu Hongjian had an inexplicable fondness for Indians, probably because they were both of the yellow race.

And he doesn't think that this Indian chief can learn any high technology. The people in the fertile land of America are really strange. Their astronomy attainments were almost No. 1 in the same period. There are still many unsolved mysteries in astronomy.

However, the Indians didn't even invent the wheel until the Portuguese invaded.

This is really unbelievable. Needless to say, the benefits of the wheel, the technological development of the Indians is seriously deformed, and no matter whether it is South America or North America, there are no horses.

Not only horses, not even donkeys, their only larger four-legged animals are alpacas, commonly known as grass mud horses.

"Go back to the prince, he said thank you for your kindness, he still hopes that you can go to his hometown to see, there is really gold there." Zhuge Tieniu talked to Aragorn for a few words, and replied.

Zhuge Tieniu was also very puzzled, based on his impression, the prince should like money very much, why is he so indifferent to Merika's gold?
"Hmph, I think you want me to help you get rid of Franji!" Liu Hongjian said softly, staring at Aragorn.
