Chapter 395 S Country Pirates 2
According to the information provided by the national special forces, the pirates live near the Gulf of Aden, where there are many uninhabited islands. So, after two days and two nights of flying today, Qin Xiaoxiao and Fu Mo Ran decided to find an uninhabited island and land there first as the foothold for this secret mission! The super navigation scanned all the nearby islands and found an island with a large beach to land on.
After landing, the others started cooking and preparing for lunch. Qin Xiaoxiao and Fu Mo Ran studied the map. There are four representative cities in S country. The first is Disha, which is the capital of S country and the largest city. It is located on the peninsula of S country and has the most beautiful beaches. It is the most turbulent city! The second city is Gesa, the second largest city in S country. It has a cool climate and is the center of politics, economy and culture. The third city is Makar, which is the trade center of S country. Therefore, Qin Xiaoxiao and Fu Mo Ran are ready to start looking for clues from Makar. This is the center of trade and the center of information. The fourth city is Baido, which is the transportation hub of S country and the army of S country is stationed in this place.
After 15 people finished their lunch on the beach, Qin Xiaoxiao took out a speedboat from the space. This was a speedboat from later generations and could accommodate about 20 people.
According to the navigation, they went directly to the city of Makar. Fu Moyan and the others all blackened their faces, necks, hands, and any exposed parts. Because the skin color of the people here is black and brown, black is the easiest to disguise. They wore simple shirts and trousers, the colors are different, basically dark colors, black, dark blue, and then wore white headscarves. Qin Xiaoxiao saw Fu Moyan's outfit and tried hard to hold back her laughter... In the end, she couldn't hold it back and laughed while holding her stomach.
Qin Xiaoxiao was wearing a traditional blue robe for women, with trousers and a shirt underneath, and a huge headscarf that covered her entire face. She also painted her skin black. Although painted black, Qin Xiaoxiao still looked outstanding. She could only cover her face with the headscarf, leaving only her two eyes exposed. It was extremely funny, and this time it was her turn to be laughed at by others.
Arriving at the Makar Trade Center, although it is called a trade center, in Qin Xiaoxiao's opinion, it is a huge trading market where everything is sold. Some sell sheep, some sell cattle, and some sell camels. As soon as they walked in, a foul smell hit them in the face, almost making everyone vomit on the spot.
Their biggest problem now is the language barrier. How can they get intelligence? Therefore, they first need to find a translator.
Qin Xiaoxiao was amazed at what she saw along the way, because the most common goods sold on the roadside were not food, but money. Before coming, Fu Moran told her that the people here were very poor. Qin Xiaoxiao kept scanning the money on the roadside with her eyes, and Fu Moran understood immediately that she was questioning: Is this country so poor that only money is left? In this messy downtown, those who sell money are even napping. They don't treat money as money at all. They tie a knot with a rope and sell it there. They don't worry about being robbed at all! Isn't it said that the public security here is very bad? Many people have guns hanging on their bodies. Even teenagers have guns hanging on their bodies. So the order here is very chaotic.
They will only pay attention to bills with a face value of 5000, but not much. They just lock the money in an iron cage instead of a safe. After all, how big a safe would be needed to put so much money in? It is impossible to put it all in... The means of transporting the bills is the common cart for transporting goods. In their eyes, money is not money, but an ordinary commodity.
When these vendors were doing business, they acted like billionaires. They didn't count the bills one by one and handed them to the buyers, but picked up the scales beside them and traded by weight. They didn't care even if the weight was a little bit more. This might be the confidence they get when they have too much money to count!
Qin Xiaoxiao and the other "country bumpkins" who had never seen the world were amazed by what they saw.
Qin Xiaoxiao finally understood the so-called "rich but poor country!" In fact, to be precise, the people here are not really selling money when they set up stalls. After all, money is what you need to buy things. In fact, their real purpose is to exchange for currency recognized by the world. Although they call themselves a "country", they are not recognized by the international community. It seems that they are "isolated" by the whole world. Because they are not recognized, the local currency cannot be circulated internationally, so their currency has been greatly depreciated.
Inflation and worthless money have brought great troubles to their lives. In order to solve this problem, the money-for-money transaction method emerged.
This country is relatively poor, with backward infrastructure, barren land and dilapidated roads everywhere, and garbage bags flying all over the sky, exuding a desolate atmosphere everywhere.
Qin Xiaoxiao also discovered a problem. There were many people selling money, animals, and "leaves". Residents, men, women, young and old, would buy some "leaves" to chew! Out of curiosity, Qin Xiaoxiao also bought a bundle and wanted to try it, but was stopped by Fu Moyan.
Fu Moran said: "This leaf-like plant is called "Carter". Although it looks like a leaf, it has very magical effects. After eating it, people can become extremely excited and forget their troubles. Moreover, hungry people will no longer feel hungry after eating it. It is very addictive. However, the disadvantages of long-term consumption are also very terrible. Carter has serious damage to the human brain and body. If you eat it frequently, you may become sleepy if you don't eat it for a day. The locals don't care. It seems that the happiness in front of them is precious to them. In addition, there is no local jurisdiction over this, and Carter is very cheap, so it has become their daily consumable."
Walking on the street, people chewing Carter can be seen everywhere. They look very happy and the scene is very lively...
Qin Xiaoxiao: "Damn, this is equivalent to drugs!" Seeing their living scenes, Qin Xiaoxiao and the others were deeply moved. Although the whole country is full of money, their lives are still not satisfactory.
Qin Xiaoxiao discovered that the women here all carried a huge yellow bucket. An open space in the trade center was filled with orange buckets of roughly the same shape. This container of about 20L was the most commonly used water-collecting tool for the people nearby. The poor families all carried their own buckets. The slightly richer families would lead a donkey when they came. A woven bag filled with dry grass was hung on the donkey's back, and a rope was passed under the belly and then fixed to serve as a cushion. About 10 buckets could be hung on both sides, so one pull could last for several days!
Most of the time, water was carried back by people in buckets. Women used two strips of cloth to wrap the buckets up and down and fix them on their shoulders and waists. They leaned forward 20 degrees, holding the children in one hand and holding the bottom of the bucket with the other hand. They walked forward in sandals with almost worn soles. Their steps were light and cheerful. Although the process was a bit hard, it was better than bearing the consequences of drinking dirty water. Although life was not as expected, the adults were talking and laughing. It was obvious that they did not care too much about the coldness and indifference of the world. Or perhaps they were too busy maintaining their basic livelihoods and had no time to be depressed.
