The guests wanted to go into the mountains to find materials for making paper. After King Atahuaba knew about it, he asked the eldest prince to lead the team to accompany him.

Except for the ship merchants who didn't want to suffer, the representatives of 20 people and the imperial physician of Shangguan followed suit.

For doctors, where is the blessed land?That is definitely a place with a lot of medicinal materials!Gao Huaiyu was able to be persuaded so easily to go to sea with him. One of the core attractions was that the Shangguan imperial physician wanted to collect more medicinal materials.

He has not been in Manchester City as long as Uncle Zhongqin and the others, but he has also dealt with the witch doctor of the Inca Empire during the pepper trade.

The imperial doctor Shangguan was shocked after seeing the medicinal materials and medical skills used by the witch doctor. The witch doctor knew as many as [-] kinds of herbs.

The most commonly used medicinal materials by the Incas are quinine (Cinchona cream, which is a very curative medicinal material for treating malaria), ipecac, mugi (for typhoid fever, sore throat), belladonna (for renal colic Pain, biliary colic and other diseases), digitalis (to relieve symptoms of palpitation and chest tightness) and other drugs.

Among them, the witch doctor is most proud of their "sacred medicine" - coca. The Incas not only like to chew coca leaves to keep out the cold and cure diseases.It can relieve stomach cramps, rheumatism, headache and other uncomfortable symptoms.It can also be used as an anesthetic during surgery.

Because coca leaves are bitter, they often chew coca leaves mixed with lime, plant ashes or shell ash.Especially when mountaineering, this way of intake is often used to eliminate or reduce the symptoms of altitude sickness.

Every time the witch doctor mentioned a medicinal material that was not available in Daxia and its efficacy, the Shangguan imperial physician became excited, and kept asking the other witch doctor.I have exhausted several translators. The names of these medicines are too long, and they can only translate them roughly.

In addition to the rich variety of medicinal materials, the level of medical skills of the witch doctor also surprised Shangguan Taiyi, a trauma doctor.

The powerful witch doctor in the empire can use a sharp "T" shaped bronze knife to cut people's heads.

They can avoid areas of the skull that are bleeding excessively, go through the dura mater (the thick layer of connective tissue that covers the outside of the brain), and remove a portion of a person's skull to relieve pressure from a fractured skull.

According to the chief witch doctor, he has to perform at least ten craniotomies a year, and the postoperative survival rate reaches [-]% or even higher!During the operation, the witch doctor used the dose of the holy medicine coca just right.

This is a craniotomy, and the Shangguan imperial physician had only heard of it in rumors, and the Great Xia Dynasty never had such a method.

Shangguan imperial physician told the witch doctor many kinds of medicinal uses of prickly ash. The witch doctor was happy and gave him a set of "T" shaped bronze knives, which Shangguan imperial physician put away like a treasure.

Craniotomy is rare, but you can go up the mountain to collect it yourself. The Shangguan imperial physician is more active than anyone else in these rumored miraculous medicinal materials. He prepared a lot of big bags and asked ten medical officers to follow them to dig the medicine.

The eldest prince and his entourage lead the distinguished guests of the Xia Dynasty to climb the mountain, while lighting a kind of grass blade, squinting their eyes to enjoy the fragrance it emits.

The thing that made them enjoy it so much looks a bit like the firecrackers set off by children: it consists of a larger dry leaf wrapped with some smaller dry grass leaves. The Incas called these "firecrackers" "Dabaco" .

They light one end with charcoal and suck the other end repeatedly with their mouths.While swallowing the clouds and mist, the body slowly relaxed, the fatigue gradually disappeared, and the mind was completely intoxicated.

Seeing how the Incas enjoyed it so much, no one in Daxia except Heiwa was curious. Is it so good?
The eldest prince was very enthusiastic, and one of them ordered a roll for them, signaling them to enjoy it together.Heiwaman asked Yuan Wenwu to shout to several teenagers: "If you are not full, you can't smoke, you don't need to refresh yourself at your age!"

Among the adults, only Gao Huaiyu sucked a few mouthfuls, expressing the joy of relaxation, while the others were choked and coughed non-stop, which made the eldest prince and the others laugh out loud.

Just entering the tropical forest, they saw many cocoa trees.The tree is an evergreen tree that blooms and bears fruit all year round, with a large amount of flowers.Among the thousands of flowers, there are almost 40 oval fruits that can mature.

Among the Daxia people who have already drunk cocoa drinks, no one wants to drink this stuff, only Uncle Zhongqin does not dislike it, and he expresses to the eldest prince that he wants a lot of cocoa fruit.

Hei Wa: Coco, his wife can make chocolate!
Accompanying Master Yan and the others to find bark, and Shangguan's imperial physician to find medicinal materials, was not the purpose of Hei Wa's coming in person.For him, in addition to the various food crops in South America, there is another kind that excites him, which is called "the tree that can shed tears" by the Incas.

In tropical forests, all kinds of bugs bite badly, and the clever Incas collected white sap from the cuts of this tree.Then apply the white sap to the body, and the resin will form a film. They can even use the sap to make rubber balls for local children to play with.

Natural rubber tree, the raw material for making condoms, Hei Wa has been thinking about it for so long, and finally found it.

Huang Shangshu and Gao Huaiyu expressed their admiration for Uncle Zhongqin's ability to always discover new species that they didn't know.Although they still can't understand what's the use of these, as long as Uncle Zhongqin says it's useful, they will move back to Daxia!

So, the herb collectors were busy collecting herbs, the bark hunters were looking for bark, and Hei Warang followed his brothers to help collect rubber tree seeds.

In just a few days, Heiwa stowed hundreds of catties of rubber tree sap and dozens of two- to three-year-old rubber trees into the space.

For his sexual happiness for the rest of his life!Thanks to the freshness preservation function of the space, these talents can only be studied when he returns to Daxia.

No bamboo was found, so Yan Fuzi and Huang Shangshu selected the bark of more than ten kinds of shrubs, and planned to experiment more to see which bark was the best to use.

From the collection of paper-making raw materials to all the subsequent paper-making processes, the eldest prince personally guarded it, and the craftsmen he brought were also very serious about learning.

Sufficient time allowed Shangguan and the imperial physicians to go crazy in picking medicinal materials. As long as there were seeds, they collected them, and they had to take them back if they were alive or not.

The Shangguan imperial physician sighed several times that if the Incas had made paper earlier and recorded their medicinal materials in books, or their medical skills could be recorded in books, it would have been much easier for them, foreign learners.

Uncle Zhongqin didn't care about medicinal materials, and what he asked for from the eldest prince was a lot of types and quantities of food, vegetables and fruits.

Grain such as: corn, potato, sweet potato, cassava;
Vegetables: kidney beans (there are eight different kinds of beans), tomatoes, peppers (there are as many as five varieties), pumpkins, onions, zucchini, etc.;
Fruits: strawberry, avocado, star fruit (blueberry), chrysanthemum (yacon);

Others incidentally: a pair of peanuts, sunflower seeds, cocoa, llamas and vicuna cubs.

Animals like grass mud horses have struck Heiwa's childlike innocence. With space in hand, he is really not afraid that he will not be able to support him.

Corn, potatoes, and sweet potatoes are not only the staple food they use to supplement, but also the main food they want to bring back.

The eldest prince was really not stingy, he satisfied all the requests of Daxia's friends, and packed five boats for them.

Seeing that the eldest prince coveted their horses, the three giants discussed and offered to give King Atahuaba two pairs of young and strong horses.

Stallions that haven't been fanned can still reproduce to the next generation. They have prepared two carriages for sending the Buddha to the west.

This gift made King Atahuaba very happy, and this little food was exchanged for such a valuable return. The friends of Daxia are so kind!

After Heiwa was free, she did some research for a few days, planning to bring some souvenirs to her daughter-in-law.

The pottery is mainly dark red or brown, with geometric patterns. He picked out exquisite and interesting pottery and changed some, which can at least represent the cultural characteristics of the Inca Empire.

The pan flute made of pottery and the blanket dyed with vicuna must have been liked by his wife, so I also exchanged two boxes for these odds and ends.

It was already twenty days after Yan Fuzi and Huang Shangshu made the paper.During this period of time, the medicinal materials picked by Guang Shangguan's imperial physician were loaded into a whole cargo ship, and the medicinal seeds were also loaded into a small boat.

The king of Atahuaba, the priests, and the members of the nobles all nodded their heads when they saw the paper as white as jade, and their craftsmen also showed that they had fully learned this technique.

The Inca Empire, which has no written records, was rewritten by the fleet of Daxia, leaving a strong and colorful stroke in the long history.

Today, King Atahuaba paid a full two thousand catties of gold for this record, and Master Yan himself was also given fifty fine gems.

Master Yan: From now on, please don’t call me a poor boy!

The translators have learned Inca for two months, and now there are basically no major problems in oral communication, and it is finally time to say goodbye.

When parting, the eldest prince personally came to the beach to see them off.

Practice has proved that not all outsiders will bring blood and plunder, and there is a powerful ally in the east-the Great Xia Dynasty.

Their ships are taller than houses, their garments are softer than the skins of their prey, and their china shines like the sun gods.

For the gold and gemstones taken away by the Bactrians, as well as some of the food they grew, the Incas thought it was a fair trade, and they didn't lose money.

The Incas are proud of people in this advanced civilized country who like their food. They are the best growers in the world!
"Goodbye, good friend!"

"Goodbye, big prince!"

"Father, will we come to the Inca Empire again in the future?"

"Well, this is a treasure place, it's worth coming again!"

"Sixth brother, come quickly, let's practice it again, Inca, maybe we can use it later!"

"Fourth brother, since when have you been so eager to learn! This is not like you!"

"It doesn't matter if you learn well or not, sixth brother, there is really a golden house in Niaoyu, brother, I can buy ten shops this time when I go back!"
