In order to show his bravery, Tainuo only brought a few people forward.

The two parties met on the beach and looked at each other for a long time, both trying to guess the other's intention and attitude through the other's eyes.

Ma He took the lead in breaking the silence and expressed his most sincere greetings in standard Ming Dynasty Mandarin.

"Dear Chief!"

"I am an official who comes to your country to seek trade on behalf of the Ming Dynasty's grandson. Please accept my gift!"

Ma He said as he took a tray from the attendant and presented his gift.

Although Tylenol didn't understand a word of it, he could still roughly tell the difference based on the other person's actions.

Is this person taking the initiative to give me a gift?

This guy wants to date me?

This person wants my protection?

Tylenol did not look at the gift on the tray in a hurry. Instead, he looked behind him and took a colorful shell from the hand of the person behind him.

This is his return gift!

The Arawak people never take other people's things for free.

Tylenol Ulaura told Ma He a meal. Ma He, like Tylenol, couldn't understand what the other person said at all, and could only judge by the other person's movements.

"You mean to give this to me?"

"Can you trade this with me?"

"Ula uh uh la uh..."

The two completed the gift exchange while dancing. Ma He enthusiastically introduced the purpose of the gift to Tainuo. When Tainuo saw the other party draping rainbow-like silk on his body, he roughly understood that this fabric was used to make clothes.

.So he returned the favor, took out a colorful conch and blew it in front of Ma He.

It wasn't until he saw Ma He also blowing conch shells that Tylenol laughed happily.

Seeing that the relationship between the two parties had eased, Ma He immediately made his request.

He held water with both hands as if to drink, and made eating gestures with his hands. Tylenol followed suit, and then nodded toward Ma He, indicating that he understood the other person's needs.

Tainuo then sent orders to the tribesmen, who quickly brought food and water.

Ma He reciprocated the favor and gave Tylenol a few bolts of silk as a thank you.

The ice-breaking journey between the two parties quickly heated up in this back-and-forth.

During the sign language communication between Ma He and Tylenol, several fellows in Ma He's fleet have also been trying to find the pattern of Tylenol's speech.

Although it is difficult to master a language from scratch, they still learned a few words through a short conversation.

Such as water and food...

Ma He continued to communicate enthusiastically with Tylenol until around three o'clock in the morning, when Ma He made a request.

He drew a circle on the beach, pointed to the warship he had brought, and used his fingers to draw little people in the circle.

Tainuo instantly understood that the other party was asking his tribesmen if they could log in.

The generous Tylenol immediately patted his chest and nodded, talking about horses and completely incomprehensible Arawak language.

Fortunately, the communication between the two was not limited to words, Ma He understood his meaning through his actions.

But just to be on the safe side, he still drew more little people in the circle, which meant that there were many people on his side.

Tainuo hesitated upon seeing this. His tribe only had less than 2,000 people, but it seemed that the other party had more people than him...

Seeing that the other party was hesitant, Ma He gave the gift again and took out a picture with magical crops on it.

Tylenol immediately became happy when he saw the other party's drawing, because he could understand it.

Tylenol looked at the picture and saw that the pictures were actually corn and potatoes, but the corn in the picture was bigger and the seeds were plumper. The potatoes were bigger than a fist, far from what they usually eat.

So small.

Tainuo understood what was on the painting, nodded towards Ma He, and then ordered someone to bring up a basket of corn and a basket of potatoes.

When Ma He saw the two divine objects, a look of surprise appeared on his face.

He never expected that the task assigned by the Emperor Taisun would be so simple!

"Very good!"

"With these two things, this servant can be on business with the emperor's grandson!"

Tylenol saw that the other party was so happy to see corn and potatoes, and his vigilance immediately dropped.

For a person who only likes food, no matter how bad it is, it can't be too bad.

Tylenol immediately started drawing on the ground. Compared with Ma He's paintings, his paintings were much more complicated.

However, this is also one of the necessary skills for him to become a clan leader, that is, drawing maps.

Taino drew a rough map of his territory on the beach, and then drew an area within his own territory, indicating that he could give this area to Ma He so that Ma He and his tribe could survive.

Ma He quickly understood what the other party meant and expressed his gratitude.

After the two sides negotiated their respective boundaries, Ma He immediately summoned the crew to disembark.

When Tainuo saw dozens of warships with long rope ladders hanging down, and people in strange clothes getting off the ships one by one, he felt a little regretful for a moment.

There are too many of these people...

Moreover, the weapons they wear are much more sophisticated than our own.

If they went to war with their own tribe, wouldn't their tribe be destroyed in an instant?

When Tainuo got off the ship with two thousand people, he roared away with his tribe.

Ma He guessed the other party's concerns, but at this time the people on his side had already disembarked, and he could only wait to explain to the other party later.

He believed that as long as the other party saw his sincerity, they would definitely give up their hostility and worries.

After the people on the fleet landed on land, they quickly chose a flat place to set up camp and moved stones from nearby mountains to build a fort.

Five thousand people worked together, and it took only one morning to set up the camp and set up tents in the camp.

When the first wisp of smoke rose from the camp, all the Ming soldiers couldn't help crying.

Today they can finally sleep on stable land, enjoy clear spring water, and taste delicious meals.

In the next few days, Ma He ordered his sergeants to strengthen the camp and establish a temporary stronghold, while communicating with Taino, the leader of the Arawaks.

Tylenol also communicated with this guest from afar, while sending someone to keep an eye on him. Seeing that the other party really had no intention of attacking him, he gradually let down his guard and started to make friends with Ma He seriously.

After more than ten days of dancing, the two were finally able to communicate simply in a short Arawak language.

At the same time, Tylenol can also express a few Ming Dynasty Mandarin words from time to time. Although the pronunciation is very poor, at least it can be understood.

As the exchange deepened, Ma He put forward more and more conditions.

Gold, silver, and the big talking Qingluan bird were all on his agenda.

Tylenol is also very enthusiastic and willing to help Ma He as long as he asks.

But he also made a request of his own, that is, he hoped that Ma He could lead his tribe and help him defeat an enemy on the other side of the mountain.

Ma He immediately fell silent upon hearing this request, because according to the emperor's grandson, there was no need for them to intervene in disputes between local tribes.

Once they help Taino and defeat the enemy on the other side of the mountain, what should they do if the enemy on the other side of the mountain calls more people to deal with them?

Ma He expressed his worries, and Tylenol was silent for a while.

After a while, Tylenol pointed to the horse and the Xiuchun knife on his body, and Ulaura said.

Ma He instantly realized that his friend wanted to borrow his weapon!

Ma He looked at the surrounding scenery. There were vast plains, vast jungles, mountains, and water...

The people here can smelt gold, silver, copper and other precious metals, but they cannot smelt iron.
Chapter completed!
