"Well, you're not just the amazing Don, you're the weird Don!"
Elder Eucalyptus shook hands with Tang Ping and said strangely: "How can we express our gratitude by just shaking hands like this?"
Tang Pingke couldn't figure this out with her, so he pointed to the bonfire and changed the subject: "Is it ready over there?"
Elder Eucalyptus sniffed, then nodded with a smile and said, "I didn't expect your nose to be as sensitive as mine."
Elder Eucalyptus brought Tang Ping to the campfire, where a lot of meat had been roasted, mostly animals from the Australian grasslands, as well as some fish.
A tribal woman came to Elder Eucalyptus. She first looked at Tang Ping with suspicion, and then whispered something in the ear of Elder Eucalyptus.
Elder Eucalyptus was stunned for a moment, and then said to Tang Ping: "They said the food you sent was too small. They didn't know how to bake it. They even thought you were deceiving us."
"Too small? Bake it?" Tang Ping held his forehead: "I'm sorry, I didn't make it clear."
In addition to canned convenience foods, what he brought in the car were noodles and bags of rice as staple food.
Of course it is impossible to bake the noodles and rice.
After asking around, I found out that the eucalyptus tribe did not have such a thing as a pot. After thinking about it, I realized that they had not mastered the technology of making pottery and drank water from leaves or stone bowls or wooden bowls. How could there be such a thing as a pot? .
So he could only ask Lao Cui and the others to take down the two pots in the car, one pot to boil water for noodles, and one pot for cooking rice.
The noodles had to be boiled first, and there was nothing interesting to see, so Elder Eucalyptus followed Tang Ping and watched him cooking curiously.
"This is called rice. It needs to be boiled with water to eat. If you add more water, it's porridge. If you add less water, it's dry rice."
Tang Ping put his index finger into the pot and said, "If you want to cook dry rice, remember the secret is that the water is just one knuckle's height above the rice."
"The height of a knuckle?" She imitated Tang Ping and put her index finger into the water. She found that when her fingertips touched the small white particles called rice below, the water above them just covered the first part of her fingers. joint.
"Then the cooking time..." Tang Ping thought for a while and didn't know how to explain that half an hour is
After a while, he called Wu Yun: "You can walk from here to the tribe's gate normally and then back."
Dark Clouds didn't know why, but he did it anyway.
Tang Ping looked at it for about three minutes and then said to the elder Eucalyptus: "Just walk up the dark clouds to the gate and then come back here, ten times in total."
The elder Eucalyptus stretched out his finger and retracted a thumb to show that he understood.
Then he looked at the dark clouds and said, "Keep going, there are nine more times!"
Wu Yun cried sadly, the meat was already roasted, why did he stupidly walk back and forth here so many times without doing anything?
Tang Ping said with a smile: "I'm telling you, when you cook in the future, you should follow this time. If you are here today, I will naturally know When is the best time."
After Wu Yun heard the amnesty, he stayed away from Tang Ping and Elder Eucalyptus, for fear that something bad would happen if he got closer.
In just a few minutes, the water in another pot was boiling. Lao Cui threw a whole handful of noodles into it, and then some canned lunch meat and ham sausages, and added various seasonings. The pot noodles are even cooked.
The careful Li Bai had already used a short knife to cut many small branches obtained by Hongshi into the shape of chopsticks, and showed everyone how to eat them.
People from the eucalyptus tribe who felt the novelty gathered around, caught the food with leaves, and ate it with chopsticks like Li Bai did.
They have never eaten such soft and rotten food, and the young people may not like it very much.
But those who are a little older and have bad teeth find it really comfortable to eat.
Tang Ping said to the elder Eucalyptus: "I can also give you these two pots. People in the tribe will drink water after boiling it. It is best to put the water in it and boil it until it bubbles vigorously."
"In this way, people will be less likely to get sick and their life span will be longer. And the rice and noodles I gave you, as long as you keep them in a dry place, they will not go bad even if they are stored for one to two years."
He is trying his best to show his sincerity, or to show his leverage.
The more the Eucalyptus Tribe cannot do without these things, the easier it will be to reach a contract with Tang Ping.
While talking, the rice cooked by Tang Ping was ready.
He used his own lunch box to serve a bowl to Elder Eucalyptus, then opened a can of dace with black bean sauce and rushed in half of it, mixed it with the rice and handed it to her.
"Let's try the food we usually eat first."
Elder Eucalyptus knocked on the stainless steel lunch box Tang Ping gave her, then looked at the stainless steel spoon in her hand, then took a spoonful and put it into her mouth.
"It's delicious!" Elder Eucalyptus said with some surprise.
In fact, their usual food is too monotonous, mainly meat, and they rely on some fruits to supplement the body's necessary vitamins.
The only seasoning is sea salt that is brought back from the beach with sand in it.
This was the first time she had eaten food with such a rich taste. She looked at Tang Ping’s remaining canned dace with black bean sauce and the few unopened cans next to it and asked, “They are all Is it for us?”
Tang Ping nodded, and then she poured the remaining cans into the pot, stirred them hard with a spoon, and then called the tribesmen to come over and share.
Tang Ping and the others tasted the food of the Eucalyptus Tree Tribe. It was not that delicious, but some of the fresh fruits they picked tasted very good.
Lao Cui and Lao Du opened the wine bottles as a habit. They touched it and took a sip. They sniffed at the rock on the side and felt that the taste was delicious despite not asking about it.
Lao Cui noticed Shi Yan's movements. Although he couldn't understand the language, he still took out a cup, poured a cup and handed it to Shi Yan.
Shi Yan looked at the cup and then at Lao Cui.
Lao Cui took the cup and poured it into his mouth. Then he breathed a sigh of relief, poured another cup and handed it to Shi Shi.
Shi Yan understood now, and imitated Lao Cui and poured it into his mouth. It was his first time to touch strong liquor and he choked without any surprise.
"Cough cough cough cough!" After a violent cough, Shi Shi straightened his hands with red cheeks and placed the cup in front of Lao Cui again.
"Want more?" Lao Cui asked, tilting the wine bottle to the rim of the cup.
Although he didn't understand the language, Shi Yan clearly understood what Lao Cui meant and nodded suddenly.
So Lao Cui gave him another drink.
This time, the rock was not choked after being poured into the mouth. After holding back the irritating taste, he followed Lao Cui's example and breathed a sigh of relief.
"Hahaha, come again!"
