Big Islander 2

Chapter 435 Golden Lake

Undoubtedly, as the discoverer of the Golden City, Tang Jide naturally became the owner of this place. Even Sanchez took all this for granted. This is also a common practice in the world, and many so-called adventurers do this.It was done in the American continent back then, and it was also done in ancient China.

However, although Tang Jide and Xiao Xiami have become the true masters of the temple spiritually and can control everything here, in reality, they cannot take everything as their own.

The two of them had planned a long time ago, taking from the people and using it for the people. They wanted to leave all the wealth in this palace to their descendants, those Indian tribes who still live by the river or in the jungle, to improve Their lives.As for the specific method, it still needs to be negotiated, whether it is to return the original things, or to discount these treasures, and then use the money to help the aborigines in the rainforest, and a specific charter needs to be come up with.

For Tang Jade, he is more inclined to the latter: the temple must be preserved, it is the most precious historical relic, and no one has the right to destroy it; but the property inside is best collected by the Ocean Treasure Museum on Hong Kong Island, which can Set up a special exhibition hall for exhibitions, and then set up a special committee to slowly use the income to improve the lives of Indian natives without destroying the integrity of this batch of treasures.

Because the big head brother is very worried that if these treasures are directly handed over to the natives, it will attract the covetousness of countless wolves, and it is hard to say whether they can keep this wealth.

Even he is not prepared to spread the truth, this temple, let it be hidden in the rainforest forever.Because once outsiders know of its existence, the temple will cease to exist.There is no doubt about this.

You can consider transferring the Forgotten Tribe here. Since they don't want to go out of this rainforest, they should be responsible for guarding the temple.Since millions of people used to live here, there must be land suitable for farming, and there is no problem in surviving.

His admiration and longing for the temple can be seen from the elder brother's face. I believe that the Forgotten Tribe will be very happy to live here.

The advantage of doing this is that even if one day in the future, the temple is really discovered by the outside world, then the Forgotten Tribe can protect everything here under the banner of the master, and even the government has no right to take any of it from here. thing.Of course, it is too difficult to achieve this. Everyone knows that aborigines have no human rights. This is also the intention of Big Touge to establish an aboriginal alliance to protect the rights and interests of aboriginals all over the world.

After hearing Tang Jide and Xiao Xiami's arrangement, the elder brother was the happiest. He even immediately asked Daxing to fly him back to the tribe to convey the good news.No matter how scary it is to fly, I don't care.

But Sanchez and Sophie were more shocked: an incomparably rich treasure was just surrendered.Even if they are indifferent to fame and wealth and devote themselves to studying knowledge, they think they can't do this. Human nature is selfish.

"Big Head Island Master, I feel now that you are still a little qualified to be my mentor." Sophie got the Golden Book, and now she is convinced again.

Tang Jide scratched the back of his head, and then sighed: "Seeing so many good things, I am also greedy. But there is no way, do something or not, as a human being, you must keep your bottom line."

Sophie nodded seriously: "I will consider whether I want you to be my mentor."

The matter was finalized in this way, so everyone began to count the items in the temple and register them one by one.This project was mainly completed by Sanchez and Sophie; as for the valuation, it is better to wait for the experts in this field to come.

On the other hand, Tang Jide seized the time to dispatch troops, and if he wanted to transport all these items to the Ocean Treasure Hall, he must do it secretly.Although Tang Jide's intentions and intentions are good, if the authorities know about it, they will definitely try to stop it. After all, this wealth is too amazing.In the temple alone, there are more than 3000 treasures of various types according to preliminary statistics.This is a building in this city. A huge empire with a population of several million at the beginning, the wealth it possesses is definitely an astronomical figure.

For others, it may be difficult to smuggle, but for Peach Blossom Island, which has powerful sailors, it is not difficult.Just ask the octopus soldiers to rush all the way from the mouth of the Amazon River to the nearby river, and then the transfer work can be completed without anyone noticing.

Contacted He Tiantian by satellite phone, and when she heard the good news, she immediately set off with a group of experts from the Ocean Treasure Museum.However, exploring this city will be a long-term and arduous task. I believe that they will work here secretly for a long time to come.

At the same time, the relocation of the entire Forgotten Tribe is also on the agenda. I believe their arrival will increase a lot of manpower and speed up the process of exploration.Fortunately, the Forgotten Tribe didn't have much wealth, and they basically belonged to the group who could leave with their bags. The relocation work was not as difficult as imagined.

Everything is going on in an orderly manner. Tang Jide and Xiao Xiami are the busiest, and their workload is also the biggest. They need to do all kinds of preparations for the overall migration of the Forgotten Tribe: cleaning houses, preparing water sources, sorting out cultivated land, etc. Very busy.

Fortunately, most of them have a certain prototype, but they have been abandoned for too long, and they need to be restored.For example, houses, with the continuous development of the area around the temple, many stone houses have been discovered. Although some have collapsed, it is relatively easy to build.

As for arable land, there is no need to worry about it.What the pheasant said at the beginning was correct. There is a large area of ​​lush vegetation here. According to Sanchez's research, these places should have been farmland at the beginning, and the soil was very fertile.Only a small part of it needs to be recovered, which is enough to supply hundreds of people of the Forgotten Tribe.

Drinking water is also not a problem. In the rainforest, there is never a lack of water.Although outsiders would definitely get upset if they drank the water, the local aborigines had already adapted to it.

As for the development of the entire city, it needs to be carried out slowly after the people of the Forgotten Tribe arrive. I believe there will be many surprises waiting for them.

The tiring day was over again, Tang Jide came back from the field like a mud monkey, urging everyone to take a bath.Not far behind the temple, there is a lake with obvious artificial traces. According to his and Xiao Xiami’s memory of the temple, it should be the holy lake where the priests crowned the king and bathed the king.But now, they also want to enjoy the king's treatment.

When the group of red-tailed monkeys heard Tang Jide's yell, they immediately went on strike, scurrying and bouncing around Tang Jide, and surrounded him towards the holy lake.Since the fusion of Tang Jide and Xiao Xiami's abilities, the plant essence and life essence have been combined into one, so these naughty monkeys have become close to Tang Jide.And they also played a certain role in the development of the temple, helping with work every day and working hard.

Seeing the backs of the monkeys and Tang Jide shoulder to shoulder, the pheasant could not help shouting: "Monkey King, wait for me—"

"Call the work, let's go take a shower." Lao Sang also looked at Tang Jide and the monkeys with a smile, what a harmonious picture it was.

The surface of the lake is about three to five acres, and weeds are overgrown by the water. Tang Jide and the others just opened up a trail along the original stone road in the direction leading to the temple.The lake is fairly clear, and there are a lot of wild fish and frogs in it, and there are even a few Brazilian turtles, but there are no crocodiles living here.

The reason why it is called an artificial lake is that on the side they opened up, smooth stone slabs are paved on the shore, extending into the lake.Back in the day, when the king was crowned, he had to take a holy bath here, so of course it couldn't be too shabby.

Tang Jide and the group of monkeys all jumped into the lake. Suddenly, the calm lake became noisy.With this group of monkeys, it's impossible not to make a fuss.After washing off the dust on their bodies, they actually started a water fight with Tang Jide under the leadership of Daxing.Poor big-headed brother, his fists were no match for his four claws, and he couldn't open his eyes because of the water jet.

"Don't make a fuss, let's wash up quickly, Xiao Xiami and Sophie will take a bath later." Tang Jide had no choice but to raise his exemption card.But the monkey group is willing to give up if they are having fun.

"I'm going to fight with you—" Brother Datou was also in a hurry, roared, and then dived into the bottom of the water, we can afford to hide if we can't be provoked, so let's endure under the water for a while.Although these monkeys can swim, they are rough and cannot dive.

Losing their target, the group of monkeys played for a while, and then went ashore to look for food. They were not bad, they knew how to respect the old and love the young, and did not fight water with Lao Sang, otherwise, Lao Sang is really old at this age Can't hold them back.

After Lao Sang and the elder brother also took a bath, it was Sophie and Xiao Xiami's turn. After all, is there any difference between men and women?The two of them didn't know that there were people hiding under the water, and they thought that Tang Jide had already left among the monkeys, so Sophie simply stripped naked and lay on the stone slab by the water, with most of her body submerged in the water , completely relax your tired body and mind.These days, Sophie has devoted herself to it, and she is really exhausted.

Suddenly, there was a sound of water splashing not far away, Sophie opened her eyes and saw a big brain popping out of the water, it was Tang Jide soaring into the sky from the water, holding a what.

Sophie screamed in shock, grabbed the clothes on the shore, and ran away.Tang Jide glanced at her naked back, then shook his head: "An idiot is an idiot, you should hide in the water—"

"Uncle Datou, did you fish this from the bottom of the water?" Little Xiami swam over and saw that Tang Jide was actually holding a yellow and golden mask in his arms.

Tang Jide laughed twice: "Thanks to the group of red-tailed monkeys, I was driven to the bottom of the lake to take refuge. The water below is quite deep, but there are many treasures at the bottom of the lake, which should have been thrown into the lake during the sacrifices. Worship the gods in the lake, and salvage them when you have time later.”

Now the cultural relics on the ground cannot be cleaned up, so there is no time to salvage the underwater ones.At this moment, Sophie was already fully dressed, and she went back and forth. She glanced at Tang Jide first, and then said: "According to the records in the Golden Book, every king should be sprinkled with gold powder when he is crowned." , and then take a bath in the lake. At the same time, a lot of gold ornaments and gems are used to worship the gods, so this is a veritable golden lake!"
