Of course, such a topic can only be used for entertainment. No one would really try to hunt a lion. As the car went westward, there were more and more animals of all kinds. Except for Smith, Xu Ziling and the three of them

This was my first time in Africa. I saw the giraffes running not far from the car. I regretted not bringing my girlfriend over to see them. However, I thought there would be many opportunities in the future, so I didn’t feel too sad.

The group of people had lunch in a small village on the roadside. Due to the fact that it was once a colony, in addition to the local dialect, English is common here, so there is no need to worry about language barriers. Smith's car was newly bought, a

A Land Rover with a displacement of 5.0L. People in the village probably rarely see such a luxury car. As soon as they entered the village, they were surrounded by onlookers. Of course, they were just children. At most, the adults stood in front of the house and pointed.

Fan.

The strangers came unexpectedly, some of them were vaguely hostile, and a village chief-like figure came out to inquire. After learning that they were just Chinese people who came here to play and wanted to ask for some food, they warmly entertained them. Of course, they were very kind to Smith.

This big white-skinned man is still a little resistant, presumably because he doesn't have much affection for Westerners.

In Nitan in June, it was the beginning of the dry season, and the temperature was extremely high. Even if the air conditioner was turned on, several people felt a little tired after driving all morning. Of course, the main reason was that the road conditions were so bad. According to the village chief

We welcomed some people into the thatched-roofed house and sat down. The owner quickly brought a bunch of mangos, coconuts and other fruits for them to eat, which made them deeply feel their enthusiasm.

After the fruit, there is a bowl of typical local hand-picked rice for each person. Of course it is not rice, but banana rice. This is the first time for Smith and others to eat this. It feels quite novel, but I have only eaten it before.

After that, they all felt that it was okay to eat this food once in a while, but if they ate it often, they would not be sensitive to it.

Anyway, they didn't plan to go back at night, so they were not in a hurry. They didn't leave immediately after the meal. Instead, they sat in the house and chatted with the village chief and others, chatting about their lives and the life in the court. Regarding what Xu Ziling and the others said

, everyone’s faces were full of yearning, and some even lamented that it would be great if their country could be so wealthy, and there was not much sense of belonging to this country in their words.

Xu Ziling and the others could understand this idea. The house they were in was the village chief's home, but they didn't see any electrical appliances. After asking, they found out that there was no electricity at all. Even the village chief

This is the case in my family. As you can imagine in other families, life is extremely difficult for ordinary people. It is obviously just a joke to expect everyone to be unyieldingly loyal to the country.

There was still nearly a hundred kilometers to go in the afternoon, and few of them dared to stay any longer. At almost two o'clock, they got up and left. When leaving, Smith took out a hundred dollars and used it as their meal money.

Unexpectedly, this move caused displeasure among some of the village chiefs, saying that they looked down on poor people like them, which made Xu Ziling and others a little confused and confused about their feelings. You must know that in the chaotic places on the continent of Africa, five people

U.S. dollars, you can hire people for ten dollars

Go kill others. One hundred dollars is not much to them, but to these black-faced farmers who have food and clothing problems, it is definitely an extra fortune. I didn't expect them to refuse it for the sake of "friends", but

It can also be seen from this that these people indeed regard them as friends.

Seeing their stern refusal, Xu Ziling and the others certainly would not force anything on them. They were ready to leave after being polite. However, they inadvertently saw a young man whispering next to the village chief. The village chief hesitated, thinking that maybe

If he needed their help with something, and he felt that he couldn't afford to eat their meal in vain, Xu Ziling asked.

The village chief was a bit old and a highly respected person. When asked by Xu Ziling, he was a little embarrassed, but maybe the question was too important to them. After struggling for a while, he still said it bravely: It turned out that they wanted to

Ask Xu Ziling if they have any bullets, and if so, can you give them some and they can exchange them for something.

Xu Ziling and the four of them were all surprised. You must know that they are all dressed up for outdoor travel, and they don't look like people with guns. How could these people think that they have bullets? If they hadn't seen

Seeing that these people were definitely farmers, they really doubted their origins.

"Why do you ask that?"

Several people looked at each other, and finally Xu Ziling asked the old man curiously.

After saying the words, he felt that it was not so embarrassing. After listening to Xu Ziling's words, the old village chief realized that there was something wrong, and he was not as embarrassed as before. He smiled and said to several people: "I have seen people coming to play on the grassland before.

The difference with you is that they will ask our local police to protect them. It's not like you are the first time to play outside, so you shouldn't understand that it will be dangerous here, but you just didn't ask anyone, so I guess you should

Only when you have the ability to protect yourself do you dare not hire people."

Is it that simple?

After hearing what the old village chief said, several people looked at each other in shock, never expecting that something had been missed.

"Also, when my nephew was sitting down just now, he saw the pistol on his body." Perhaps because he was afraid that his reason was not enough to convince a few people, the old village chief paused and pointed at Smith.

.

…

At this time, Xu Ziling also understood what the person who had spoken in the village chief's ear had said.

Knowing this reason, they were curious about what the old village chief wanted bullets for. From a few hours of contact, they could tell that these people were not people who knew how to rob, and they did not fight, so why did they need bullets?

?And they only asked for bullets, which means they have guns?

It didn't matter if I gave them some bullets just for the sake of a meal, but a few people were curious about what they wanted guns for, so they decided to ask clearly.

When they asked, the old village chief answered quickly, but the reason made several people fall silent.

It turns out that some robbers not only rob passers-by, but also go to small villages like theirs where there are not many people around to do evil. In order to resist, they have to buy guns to resist. An AK rifle on the black market only costs 200 US dollars, but as a

Consumable bullets cost a lot of money, and the black market is just a short distance away.

They were not close to the village. Because of a resistance not long ago, they had consumed a lot of ammunition. They were about to buy it on the black market, but they received news that someone had recently targeted the village in this area. They were worried that those people would come at any time.

, now I happened to meet Xu Ziling and the others, so I tried to make such a request.

"Smith, how many rifle bullets did you bring?" Xu Ziling turned around and asked Smith.

"About four hundred rounds!" Smith only remembered stuffing it into the bag. He was not sure of the specific number. When Xu Ziling asked, he replied casually, "It's not a mission, and I didn't remember it." The two of them used the Chinese language.

, I don’t worry about those people understanding me, and Smith has nothing to be afraid of when he speaks.

"Then let's give them half of it? We are really going to run into something. If two hundred rounds of rifle bullets plus pistol bullets can't solve the problem, then the bullets will have no meaning at best." Xu Ziling thought for a while and discussed with a few people.

.

Including Smith, several people are quite conceited about their marksmanship skills. Indeed, as Xu Ziling said, if something happens and they still haven't got rid of so many bullets, then they must have encountered a large army.

, then there is only one way to escape, and having more bullets will really not be of much use.

"I think we should give them a gun. We won't run into anything anyway, and we probably won't need it. Besides, do we have three rifles and pistols? We can handle anything. I think these people also

It’s really pitiful that even though I’m a pauper, I still have to be robbed.”

I don’t know how Li Cheng felt sympathy. Xu Ziling asked him to bring 200 rounds of ammunition and brought him another gun.

A few people carry guns just in case, but they have no definite purpose. For them, a pistol is enough for self-defense. They are not going to fight. Any small matter will be resolved peacefully. It will definitely not be serious unless it is serious.

He knows how to use force. Besides, there are mountainous areas to the west. Basically, it is difficult for people to encounter them. In addition to preventing being targeted by ferocious beasts, there is not much difference between having a rifle and not having a rifle. After Li Cheng's words came out, the others had no objections and nodded.

, considered to be in favor.

Xu Ziling agreed, so he walked to the car, opened the door, took out a brand new AK, several magazines and a box from the bag on the back seat, and then walked to the village chief.

He handed these things to a young man standing next to him.

A box of standard two hundred rounds of ammunition, plus two standard magazines, that is two hundred and sixty rounds, plus a brand-new rifle, which shocked the people in the village. They used to buy it from the black market

Bullets, if you buy fifty rounds at a time, that's a lot. Of course it's not that they don't want to

They wanted to buy more, and a bullet cost several dollars, so they didn’t have that much money to buy it. Moreover, they heard that the price had increased recently. They originally planned to buy forty rounds this time, which would be good, but they didn’t expect that now

Xu Ziling and the others immediately took out hundreds of rounds and a gun.

"I'll give these to you!" Seeing their incomprehensible looks, Xu Ziling smiled and said, then he called a few people to get in the car and set off.

Seeing that they were about to leave, they woke up. The village chief also used quick movements that were not suitable for his elderly people. He ran over in one stride, grabbed Xu Ziling, and turned around to speak to one of them in their voices.

The young man was talking about something, and then he said to Xu Ziling: "We don't have that much money to buy it, so we can only exchange it with you."

After hearing what he said, Xu Ziling immediately understood that the young man who ran into the room after hearing what he said just now should have gone to get the things they exchanged with them. He couldn't help but smile bitterly. These things were just given to them, and he didn't even think about it.

Not to mention that they are all rich men and don't care about these two small coins. Even if they are just for a meal, they will not accept the money. It is considered an equal exchange.

"No need...I said this is a gift to you as a friend."

Xu Ziling hurriedly explained, but he happened to see the young man who ran into the house before running out again. Instead of going in empty-handed, he came out holding a huge ivory in his hand. When he saw this, his face twitched, and he
Chapter completed!
