Treasure Hunt Tycoon
Chapter 952: Eye-opening (1/5)
In ancient times, African countries had a complete chieftain system, and the whole of Africa was a chieftain society.
These chiefdoms, large and small, have long existed in South Africa, Cameroon, Nigeria, Benin, Ghana, Burkina Faso and Côte d'Ivoire.
The chief is the supreme ruler of the tribal union, with absolute powers, such as making laws, presiding over administration, directing war, serving as sacrifices, adjudicating cases, collecting taxes, etc.
In some countries, chiefs are divided into one, two, and three levels according to the size of the chiefdom, the size of the population, and economic importance.
The Zulu people have preserved many traditional customs so far, and the talkers in the tribe are still chiefs. In addition, the tribe is divided into many small tribes with chiefs inside.
When Britain ruled South Africa, in order to reduce the influence of the Zulus, the setting of chiefs and chiefs was forcibly cancelled.
But that didn't help. The chiefs were hereditary, and the Zulus stubbornly and steadfastly followed their leaders.
The lion hunters introduced their customs to Li Du. When hearing the introduction of the chief, Li Du asked: "Are you the chief of your tribe?"
After hearing this, the lion hunter laughed, "No, I am a rebel of our tribe. How could it be a chief? I and the chief are deadly rivals."
Li Du asked in surprise: "Why?"
The lion hunter smiled and did not answer this question, but changed the topic: "We Zulu practice polygamy, how about, Lee, are you interested in joining our Zulu?"
Seeing that he didn't want to answer, Li Du didn't continue to question, and he smiled cooperatively: "Forget it, I think the wife has enough one, too many, it will be very tired."
The lion hunter nodded in agreement: "Yes, it's not a good thing to have more women. When I was young, I could hunt a lion with a spear. Now I spend too much energy on a woman's belly. I can't even fight a hyena. . "
Hyenas are highly combative animals. Otherwise, there will not be the second elder brother of Africa. It is also a great thing to be able to fight with them.
However, this is not the point. Li Du's tiredness is not physical fitness, he is talking about mental aspects.
This kind of problem need not be emphasized, he certainly cannot reach a consensus with the lion hunter in this regard.
As a result, Ivan and the **** were very interested in this topic and asked.
The lion hunters also like to talk about such topics, and introduced them to them.
Polygamy is very common in the chiefdom of Africa, and many chieftains have more than ten wives.
This is the tribe of the lion hunter. Their patriarch has twelve wives. The oldest is 70 years old and the youngest is the same age as his granddaughter.
He has a total of 65 children, and the dead children have not been included. The family is large, which also makes it easier for him to secure his rule.
"The highest record in this regard is an chief of the ancient kingdom of Abomey in Benin. He has more than 4,000 concubines in his life, man, more than 4,000!" Said the Lion Hunter.
Big Ivan's eyes were straight: "Oh shit, the women I've seen in my life don't know if there are four thousand!"
"It's the third house and the sixth house in China." The **** showed his rich historical knowledge.
The Lion Hunters were very satisfied with their attitude, and continued: "Also, after the chief's death, she selected the 400 youngest beautiful ones and ordered them to bury themselves in poisonous wine!"
"Evil feudal dynasty." Dayiwan scolded with the eunuch.
Polygamy is common in Zulu and many parts of Africa, especially for men in their forties and fifties who are keen to marry their wives.
For them, wives are not tools of pleasure, but cheap labor and fertility machines.
Fortunately, for a long time, real estate and houses were worthless among the major tribes in Africa, and there was no bank for people to save and deposit. The real wealth was his wife.
The helicopter took off and landed twice, eventually landing on a dry grassland.
In the winter season, the African savannah is very dry, and the bushes and trees are also listless.
However, there are a lot of domestic animals here. When the helicopter landed, there was a herd of cattle and sheep grazing not far away. The rotation of the wings scared them, and a shepherd barked at the helicopter.
Farther away, there is a town-like gathering place, and a large number of small buildings and bungalows are gathered together. From the sky, you can see the traces of cars passing by.
Li Du asked, "Did we reach your tribe?"
The lion hunter shook his head and said, "We Zulus are convinced that everything in the world happens through the transmission of the ancestor's soul. Therefore, the land where the ancestors lived is very sacred. Outsiders are not allowed to enter without permission, especially from the air enter."
Li Du understood, and asked, "How far are we from your tribe now? Is it relatively far?"
The lion hunter pointed to the front and said, "After a hundred meters ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ is our tribe."
Li Du: "Okay!"
This edge ball played beautifully. I don't know if it was an illusion. He felt that the lion hunter may not have too much affection for the tribe.
Zulus do not measure wealth by the number of houses, the number of lands and the number of cars, but by the size of the family and the number of livestock.
They walked into the tribal area, and a black woman in a yellow shirt and blue skirt waved a sheep whip and beckoned to them, and spoke quickly and enthusiastically.
The Lion Hunter answered with a smile. He waved his hand and a bodyguard handed a gift box to the black woman.
Seeing this gift, the black woman's tone of speaking was even more enthusiastic, but Li Du could not understand anything. They communicated in Zulu language.
The lion hunter bid farewell to the black woman, and the group continued to move forward. Now the tribe's gathering place is that of the town. Everyone no longer lives in nomadic life, but starts to settle.
The Zulu people living in rural areas are mainly farming and grazing. They love farming animals and planting corn as a staple food.
Among the farmed animals, the most precious is cattle, which can not only eat meat, but also work as a farmer and as a gift.
Since the ancient times, when the Zulu people proposed to their parents, the color gift was eleven cows. This custom has been going on for centuries and has not changed. It can be said that the price of color gift has remained excellent.
When approaching the town, there were more pedestrians. Li Du looked down at his feet and followed the lion hunter.
Big Ivan and the eunuch's eyes rolled slowly. Sophie despised them because they were staring at the young girls among the Zulu people.
The Zulu people are the ‘backward people with weird customs’ in the TV media. One of the customs is that Zulu girls have upper bodies and bare breasts. Only when they are married to become women, they must wear a coat.
