- The contact between this small group and the Cayuga people seemed to go well at first.
At the same time, products from the Manhattan area have also successfully attracted the buying enthusiasm of Cayuga people.
Coupled with their considerate services and shopping guides, this puts the Cayuga people in a very good state with regard to the senses of outsiders like them.
The genetic people who sell products have good interactions with the Cayuga people, and they seem to respond well.
Not far away, a small leader from the Cayuga village came over surrounded by a group of people. The Cayuga people who followed him were all warriors with eagle feathers. They were all tall and round and looked like they were not easy people.
But this is nothing to the genetic people. They are not here to fight the Cayuga people anyway.
¡°On the contrary, they came to do business with the Cayuga people out of friendship, didn¡¯t they?
Therefore, for those of them who came to Cayuga with kindness, it is impossible for the people in this village to do anything threatening to them.
Besides, they are interacting well with the Cayuga people now, at least no one hates them.
Some Cayuga men began to test-fire in front of the gene man stall selling matchlock guns. With a cry of ¡®Bang! Boom! ' The Cayuga men kept cheering.
Not far away, the geneticists erected several targets.
Some people have already brought furs from home and started exchanging them with them.
The business of matchlock guns is pretty good and has already opened.
There were also many Cayuga women surrounding the stalls selling matches, rice, and spices. And there are also many women who have begun to trade with genetic people.
In addition to bison and beaver skins, what the Cayuga people used to exchange with the gene people was gold and silver coins and other animal skins.
People are willing to accept these genes, but there is a difference in the number of exchanges.
The Cayuga people do not object to these at all, and they also know that this is very fair.
The Gene people were quickly relieved by the surprise of the Cayuga people having gold and silver coins in their hands.
You know, although they went to war with the French a few years ago, they still came into contact with a lot of French businessmen after the armistice.
Therefore, it is not surprising that there are some gold and silver coins in the hands of the Cayuga people.
It may be that the French merchants used gold and silver coins instead because they ran out of goods to exchange. Anyway, the Cayuga people also knew that these gold and silver coins could also 'buy' other commodities from white people, so it was not surprising that they accepted this.
And these Cayuga people also have the idea of ????trying to use gold and silver coins to trade with genetic people. Unexpectedly, these foreigners really wanted the gold and silver coins they brought.
This reassures the Cayuga people.
The stalls that sell the most gold and silver coins are the stalls selling matchlock guns.
Other stalls charge the most for animal furs.
The leader of this Cayuga village, Macaro, led the soldiers to the lively temporary market and was stunned by the bustling scene of people.
It¡¯s really lively. I¡¯m afraid not all the people from our village have come to this place, right?
Macaro murmured in a low voice.
"Isn't that your mother-in-law? Look what she bought."
Macaro saw the wife of one of his subordinates who was following him, appearing in the crowded crowd, and holding a pack of thirteen incense that had just been exchanged in her hand, but she did not leave there, and instead stood on tiptoe. He couldn't help but watch something.
"I don't know, I've never seen that package."
The Cayuga warrior with three eagle feathers on his head shook his head and replied.
"Let's go and have a look. It's really strange today. What are you doing here? It's so strange." Macaro was filled with doubts, and he walked over with his soldiers.
"Macaro is well."
"Be well!"
Along the way, there were many Cayuga people saying hello.
Although this is just a small village in Cayuga, and Macaro is not the real leader of Cayuga.
But he is the manager appointed here by the chief, so ordinary Cayuga people will show respect when they see him.
After all, the Iroquois Union has already evolved.??Civilized tribe.
Although this kind of 'civilization' is still very primitive and backward, they have begun to understand etiquette and politeness, especially for those in higher positions. They have established a system of etiquette.
Macaro couldn't help but return the favor. He grabbed a person and asked, "What on earth is going on here? Why are you all here?"
The Cayuga man who was pulled by Macaro replied: "Dunbar brought back a lot of foreigners, and those foreigners brought a lot of goods, and these foreigners were willing to sell matchlock guns, so everyone wanted to be the first to do so. Buy it.¡±
????????????? What, are there matchlock guns for sale?
At this moment, Macaro and the Cayuga warriors beside him were also a little excited.
You know, the Whites have always restricted the sale of this weapon to any Iroquois tribe.
Therefore, so far, the Cayuga tribe does not have a matchlock gun.
But he also learned a piece of information from the man just now, that is, this is a group of foreigners.
That tribe did not use the title Baipi, so it can be seen that these foreigners should refer to other Indian tribes.
At the same time, these foreigners cannot be vassals of the tribes that have taken refuge with Baipi, because they call those tribes "White Dogs".
"Let's go see those foreigners. I really don't know where they come from. They can actually sell us matchlock guns." Macaro suddenly became very interested. "You can find Dunbar by the way. These people He brought it back, so we need to get the other party¡¯s information from him first.¡±
The men beside him responded, and then two people left him and began to look for Dunbar in front of various stalls.
After a while, the two of them returned to Macaro's side and whispered a few words to him.
"You said these outsiders can still see doctors, but now they go to Dunbar's house to see his sick daughter?"
Macaro was shocked now.
In the minds of Indians, anyone who can cure diseases is an extraordinary person, at least a wizard and a top tribal leader.
But today he felt a little surprised. Could it be that among the people who came to trade with them, there was also a wizard from the other side?
"Is there a wizard among these people?" Macaro asked in a low voice the men who went to investigate.
In his opinion, there is no other explanation.
And, if they are really wizards, then they must be understanding and thoughtful.
The subordinate shook his head: "It's not a wizard. I heard that they have a product called 'medicine' that can treat some diseases, and there is no need to find a wizard to treat diseases in their tribe."
The subordinate said something that was even more confusing to Macaro.
Since you can¡¯t figure it out, stop thinking about it and save yourself a headache.
"In that case, let's go to Dunbar's house and have a look. I think of Dunbar's house, and we will understand everything."
Macaro decided to visit Dunbar¡¯s house in person and see how foreigners treated diseases.
Everything should be clear if you see it with your own eyes.
His subordinates responded. In fact, they were all very curious about this.
They also want to see how these foreigners treat diseases.
Therefore, Macaro led a group of men and walked towards Dunbar's home.
The entire Cayuga tribe¡¯s village is very small, so it was not difficult for Macaro to find Dunbar¡¯s home, and soon they arrived outside Dunbar¡¯s home.
Dunbar¡¯s house is a round building, which looks like a cylinder with a ¡®bamboo hat¡¯ on it.
The main body of the wooden house serves as the structure. The Cayuga people used soil and water to make mud and paste it on the wall to protect it from wind and rain.
¡°The ¡®bamboo hat¡¯ on the roof is made of a nearby kind of wormwood, so the rainwater cannot get through it at all.
It has to be said that the Iroquois villages are fully equipped with a primary civilization system.
If they were not interrupted by external forces, no one knows what level they would have reached in the end.
But unfortunately, this is just a hypothesis.
After all, the Iroquois finally fell apart and became a term in the history books.
Regarding this, I think no one will know or explore it.
Macaro and his men arrived outside Dunbar¡¯s house. The door of Dunbar¡¯s house was not closed.But it was open like that.
Therefore, when Macaro walked to the door, he could easily see what was going on inside.
Because there were no electric lights in this era, the light in the house was a bit dim. Fortunately, it was still daytime, so visibility was still very high.
Macaro saw some foreigners wearing strange clothes (green military coats) busy doing something in front of Dunbar's daughter. They were hanging up something transparent and white, and holding thin metal Stabbed into the little girl's body.
Can this cure diseases?
Macaro walked in without knowing it.
After realizing that Macaro had walked in, the foreigners just glanced at him and stopped paying attention to him.
Their attention is now all focused on Dunbar's daughter, and their expressions are still a bit serious.
One of them reached out and pressed on the little girl¡¯s left wrist.
Dunbar stood aside with a nervous look on his face, rubbing his hands constantly.
"Macaro, you are here."
After seeing Macaro, Dunbar bowed and signaled.
For the managers sent by the leader to the village, necessary respect must still be given.
Following Macaro were the warriors wearing eagle feathers.
"Some people went out, the room was too dark and I couldn't see."
After they all walked in, the light in the room immediately dimmed.
After feeling the light dim, the gene man who was treating the little girl suddenly said something.
Dunbar looked at Macaro with a wry smile when he heard this.
The genetic man speaks Indian language, which he learned from the Mohican tribe.
In addition, the Mohican language is no different from the language used by the Iroquois, so Macaro can also hear it clearly.
He turned around knowingly and said a few words to the few people who dared to be by his side, and they withdrew.
After all, this is related to Dunbar¡¯s daughter¡¯s condition.
The little girl had been ill for a long time, and all the Cayuga people in the village knew about it.
?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????¡
? ?We also hope that the little girl will get better.
"What are you doing? Can this cure her disease?"
Macaro came over and asked softly.
He had never seen these things before, so he was a little curious.
¡°In fact, what the gene man hangs above is the salt water bottle, and what is inserted into the little girl¡¯s arm is the infusion tube.
This is nothing in the eyes of genetic people, but not to the Cayuga people.
They have never seen this thing before.
One of the gene people glanced at him and then replied: "The little girl's body is too weak. It seems that the best time for treatment has been delayed. But the condition has not reached the worst point yet. If everything goes well, it should be It can be cured.¡±
The little girl lying there was already too thin to be human.
Although she is skinny and looks like a skeleton, her belly is as big as a big rubber ball.
This made everyone who saw the little girl feel their scalps numb.
When Dunbar heard that his daughter could be saved, he was extremely excited.
"I beg you to save my daughter, she is only ten years old. If my daughter is saved, I am willing to pay a thousand beaver skins." Dunbar made a promise to the best of his ability.
The gene man shook his head: "We only need 10 skins for a visit and 50 skins for medicine, so you don't have to give us that much. Although this disease is difficult to treat, we will not deliberately raise the price."
The genetic man¡¯s words almost made Dunbar cry.
What a good man!
This damn guy is a good person!
If it weren¡¯t for Dunbar¡¯s lack of vocabulary, I would imagine that he would be speaking freely now.
When Macaro heard that the genetic man said that this disease could be cured, he immediately became energetic.
Because Dunbar¡¯s daughter looked like this, and the disease looked very strange, everyone thought she would not survive.
But these outsiders say it can be cured.
This is simply amazing.
You know, everyone who saw the little girl didn¡¯t think she could still survive.
Even Macaro himself thinks so.
And even Dunbar¡¯s wife is secretly preparing for her daughter¡¯s death.
"What disease does she have?"
Macaro asked again.
The gene man treating the little girl looked at each other, and then exchanged a few words.
One of them replied: "If our judgment is correct, there should be worms in the little girl's belly" (To be continued.
