No matter how unwilling she was, Mandy still ate some beef under Fanghua's threat and drank some broth. She felt warm all over and sat in the car to enjoy the rare peace.
"I feel like everything is terrible!”Mandy leaned against the car window and touched her beautiful side profile. She said,"Let's think of a way to leave Africa!”
"Leave? Isn't your dream to be an excellent reporter? How about the nickname of the Evil Bane?”
Fanghua said with a smile.
"But I'm afraid. I'm afraid that I'll lose you one day! Follow me to America! We can also go to Ying Country!"
Err... Was this another flag?
Fanghua shivered and did not dare to refute the powerful flag. She said obediently,""Alright! Go to America! I heard that there are a lot of hot chicks there!"
"Hooligan!"
Being interrupted by Fanghua, her depressed mood was much better.
The two of them drove all the way until dawn the next day when they came across a small village.
An old man walked over shakily and knelt on the ground with his head on the ground. He said,"There are no more children or women in our village! There's no oil or diamonds!"
"We just want to find a place to rest. It would be even better if we could exchange it for some supplies! We're reporters from World Magazine. I'm Tony! This is my photographer!"
After saying that, she nodded at Mandy, who cooperated and took out her camera to take a look.
"Reporter?"
The only two professions that were respected in Africa were doctors and journalists. Doctors could treat their patients, and journalists could bring in donations.
"Are you reporters? Can you take a photo of me?"
Just as the old man was hesitating, a pretty girl came out from a tunnel. Her dark skin was also very weak.
Her irregular diet had been torturing her stomach all year round. She had a small dream, hoping to live to 50 years old like her grandfather.
Yes, in this cursed land, being able to live to the age of 50 could be said to be a long life!
"Alright! Of course you can!"
Mandy hugged the dirty little girl with overflowing motherly love. Under Fanghua's reluctant gaze, she took a can of beef from the car and stuffed it into the girl's mouth.
"You are a kind person! Wu Du will bless you!"
After the girl finished speaking obediently, she turned around and ran to a house made of palm leaves. She took out a necklace and wore it around her neck.
There were thirty-two beads on the necklace, each the size of a walnut. Looking at the black and yellow luster on it, Fanghua's heart jumped.
While Mandy was busy taking photos of the little girl, Fanghua pulled the old man aside and said,"I like that string of beads! Name your price!"
"That's a relic left behind by her mother!”
"Nothing is priceless! Two cans of beef!"
"And the gun on your back!" The old man shook his head. Give me another hundred bullets!"
"Do you know how much these supplies cost? I can buy your tribe!"
Fanghua jumped up and said.
If it was anywhere else, they might not even have the right to touch the beads with these supplies, but this was Africa!
The old man pondered for a moment and continued,""I still have something you want!”
As she spoke, she pulled him to the entrance of a tunnel and took the lead to step on the ladder.
Fanghua took out a pistol from her backpack, hid it at her waist, and followed it down the tunnel.
"Here!"
After saying that, he led Fanghua to the innermost room.
"This is definitely what you want! Four rifles! 400 bullets! A box of canned food! And four packs of cigarettes!"
The old man opened the wooden box in his hand and Fanghua couldn't move her eyes away.
The legendary pigeon egg?
He wiped the corner of his mouth and shook his head like a rattle-drum."300 bullets at most! I'll give you a pistol and 50 bullets!”
"Deal!"
The old man was the first to extend his rough and shriveled hand.
"Deal!" Fanghua stretched out her hand and continued,""Let me ask you something I shouldn't have asked. What do you need so many guns for?”
"I have three sons. We plan to go to Freetown, which is the paradise of Sierra Leone!”
When the old man mentioned this place name, his hands trembled slightly!
"Alright, I wish you a pleasant journey!"
Those who could live to 50 in Africa were indeed not easy to deal with.
The two of them sneakily climbed out of the pit. Mandy had already taken a photo of the girl and was feeding the girl canned food. Fanghua's heart ached when she saw this.
"Alright! Treasure! We should set off!"
Fanghua came forward and patted her elastic butt and said with a smile.
"So fast?"
She was indeed tired. She thought that she could settle down, but she still had to sleep in the open.
"We can reach Port Loko in half a day. We can rest there for a night and reach Freetown the next day!”
Fanghua explained.
"Alright then!" Mandy obediently got into the car.
Fanghua, under the old man's expectant eyes, took a pile of supplies from the car, then threw the pistol at her waist to him and blinked at the old man.
The old man obviously had an Oscar for acting. He said with tears in his eyes,""Thank you, kind person! As a reward…Well... Thank you, this necklace is for this beautiful lady beside you!”
"Sister, you're so beautiful!"
The girl obediently took off the necklace around her neck and jogged to the front of the car as if she wanted to put it on her. Mandy didn't know that the necklace was made of rhinoceros horn and only thought that it was the bone of some animal.
Smiling, he opened the car door and picked up the girl, letting her put on the necklace.
"Can I call you mom?"
The girl asked timidly.
"Of course not. Alright, little baby, you're so cute!”
Fanghua interrupted the girl's words and hugged the girl. As the girl struggled, she kissed her cheek. After stuffing a hundred dollars into her pocket, she turned around and got into the car.
"Goodbye, old man! I hope to see you in Freetown!"
Fanghua waved at the black old man!
"Of course! I hope we're all still alive!"
The old man nodded heavily.
Although he knew that diamonds were priceless, and even that necklace was definitely expensive, it could not compare to the resources under his feet. This was no longer just food and weapons, but a dream and hope!
It was a little different from what they had imagined. When the two of them arrived at Port Loko, it was already afternoon.
The entire town was under martial law, but after Fanghua threw two packs of cigarettes to the guards, everything became extremely simple.
