When the ancestors of Xiangzhou celebrated their birthdays, people related to the Huang family naturally came. The Huang family, Mo family, Lu family, Wei family, Luo family, Nong family, etc., who were first-class chieftain, each sent corresponding people to congratulate according to their closeness and distant relationships. Zhou Shixiong, a Ming person, was not alone. He was close to Simingzhou, Longzhou, Ping'an Prefecture, and Nanning Prefecture, all had low-ranking imperial officials coming over to visit. In addition, Qianhu Office in Zhennanguan also sent people to congratulate him.

Although Zhou Shixiong attended the banquet as his benefactor, he was very low-key throughout the whole process. It was not that he wanted to be low-key, but that Huang did not introduce him to anyone. The son of the butler took care of his preferences throughout the process. The people at the desk were officials, and no one was interested in chatting with a white man, let alone a low-ranking doctor. If it weren't for the barbarian land, Zhou Shixiong's biggest possibility was to be driven away by these officials, rather than communicating with him.

After Zhou Shixiong finished this strange meal, Huang Yu led him back to the courtyard where he lived last time. It was not until the evening that the Great Wu Zhu came to take over Huang Yu's job.

"Doctor Zhou, I'm neglected." Huang Bo certainly knew how rude the arrangement today was for a worldly person, and he was sincere in his apology. Zhou Shixiong didn't mind these things, but felt that he was invited by a grandiose person, but no one paid attention to it.

"You're welcome, Da Wu Zhu, if you have anything to say, I don't know much about those twists and turns." Zhou Shixiong chose to go straight to the point, so he could only use this trick.

"No hurry, the toast will arrive soon, please wait." The great wizard Zhu smiled and poured tea and handed water to Zhou Shixiong, serving him enthusiastically than Huang Yu. Even if Zhou Shixiong wanted to get angry, he would not have a chance.

After a while, Huang Chengen rushed over and apologized to Zhou Shixiong again. Zhou Shixiong bowed his hand impatiently and was considered a pity. "Tashi, just say something."

"Haha, Doctor Zhou, I really want to discuss with you something, but it's important to ask Doctor Zhou for a few questions." Zhou Shixiong refused to comment on Huang Cheng'en's words, shrugged and waited for his next sentence.

"In addition to treating people, miraculous doctors can also treat animals, right?"

"Animals can do it, others can't."

"animal?"

"It's just the four-legged cattle, horse, dog, and other four legs, chickens, ducks, geese, etc."

"Oh, I understand. I heard that the miracle doctor can speak animal words?"

"Don't you know many things, you can do it a little, such as cattle, horse, dog, elephant, etc., and you can't do it."

Huang Chengen and Huang Bo's eyes shone when they heard Zhou Shixiong's answer, and they had already confirmed that this strange-born Ming man was the messenger of the Beast God, otherwise how could they know so many beast words? As for why the messenger of the Beast God is a Ming man, this is not something they want to care about.

"My doctor, can you train an elephant to pull a cart?" The great wizard Zhu even used his honorific words, and this person is second only to God in his faith.

"Elephant pulls a cart? Don't you?" There have been records of elephant pulling a cart in Thailand. Zhou Shixiong was very surprised that Dawu Zhu asked this.

"No, if we could, we would have set up a convoy of elephants to transport supplies. How could we rely solely on ox carts and water transportation like we are now?" Seeing that Zhou Shixiong took it for granted that the elephant pulled the carts, the uncle and nephew of the Huang family were almost drooling.

"If you can train a team of elephant pulling a cart, I am willing to become brothers with the miracle doctor and vow that the descendants of the miracle doctor also have the right to inherit Xiangzhou." Huang Chengen couldn't wait any longer, so he directly took out his trump card and waited for Zhou Shixiong's response.

"What? Are you a sworn brother with me?" Zhou Shixiong seemed to see aliens, and there was a problem with communication between the two sides. Are these two old men crazy? The more Zhou Shixiong thought about it, he felt that it was possible. In his cognition, he had never seen anyone give away his property to others for the sake of making money. In fact, it is very popular in Guangxi to accept adopted sons, and many people are passing the power of chieftains to their adopted sons. Doing so can bring outstanding talents into the family and make the family prosperous.

Not to mention ancient times, even modern Japan still had this tradition. If the biological son is not capable, he will pass on the family to his adopted son or son-in-law. As long as the surname remains unchanged, everything is not a problem.

Huang Chengen concealed the conditions that he had to change his surname to inherit it, and together with Huang Bo, he fooled Zhou Shixiong. "That's right, the miracle doctor has the ability to tame animals. As long as he becomes a sworn brother with me, everything about Huang's family will be shared with the miracle doctor."

"Two, do you remember that I am a wise man?" The two nodded vigorously and expressed their clarity, then continued to look at Zhou Shixiong with enthusiastic eyes, ignoring the views he wanted to express. Faced with the two pioneers of national unity, Zhou Shixiong was a little helpless. "Let me help you train an elephant convoy, and then I will be your younger brother. Who does that elephant convoy belong to?"

"Of course it belongs to you. Even if you give it to us, we can't make them obedient." Regarding this question, Huang Chengen gave up the property rights without even hitting. Zhou Shixiong thought for a while, "I only have five elephants, will there be a little less convoy?"

"This is not a problem. How many elephant old men are required to solve the problem? Are there any other problems?"

"I don't have money to buy an elephant."

"I don't have any money. Are there any other problems?"

“How to calculate the shipping fee?”

"One percent net profit."

"The last question is the road, other roads, I don't know. The road elephant car from Zhoucheng to Zhoujia Village cannot be taken away." Zhou Shixiong's question hit the Tushi's marijuana. The excitement just now disappeared instantly and he sat down with a ugly face. Although Huang Chengen had never seen an elephant car, he guessed that the elephant car was bigger than an ox cart based on his imagination. It is already very difficult to walk the ox cart on the road now, and larger elephant carts will definitely not be able to pass.

Huang Bo was also very upset. He saw that he had found a way to prosper, but he turned into a mirror and a moon. The pain in it can be imagined.

Seeing the two old men suddenly faded, Zhou Shixiong guessed that these two guys had never seen elephant cars and didn't know that the existing roads could not be used. He was so excited just now! Zhou Shixiong didn't want the big financial owner to stop, which was related to his personal interests. He thought about it and gave a solution, "No need to pull the cart first, you can put a shelf on the elephant and put the goods on the shelf to transport it."

Zhou Shixiong took out paper and pen and drew a skeleton similar to that used for carriages. The horizontal line under the skeleton a little arched, and the whole shape was similar to a herringbone ladder. Even the wizard who was professionally dancing and playing tricks could see the benefits of this skeleton at once, let alone Huang Chengen, who had been managing Xiangzhou for many years. The two became excited again. This method was also good. Although it was not as large as the number of transports, it was still much larger than that of ox carts!

"Two, this is the method. I have to wait for me to go back and try it. This way, you will come to Zhoujia Village to see the results in ten days. But I still have to say, if you want to be rich, you must first build roads." Zhou Shixiong threw out this powerful slogan and rushed back to Zhoujia Village overnight. As long as you make it out, do you still have to worry about the bamboo and wood tools in Zhoujia Village not leaving?

He rode a BMW overnight. Before dawn, Zhou Shixiong had already returned to Zhoujia Village and pulled Liu Xiucai, who had just gotten up, and said Huang's plan. Liu Xiucai stared at Zhou Shixiong in a daze, unable to accept what he said.

Seeing that Liu Xiucai was very excited, Zhou Shixiong had to throw him away and pull the three brothers to make herringbone ladders. There was no shortage of wood tools, and a rough rack was ready soon. Zhou Shixiong called an elephant to lie down and put the rack on the elephant's back. After studying for a while, he put the rack down and modified it. The ladder must reduce the chance of rubbing the elephant's body, otherwise the elephant's back would be injured if it didn't go far.

Although Zhou Shixiong had never made a shelf for carriages to transport goods, he had seen this kind of thing in movies when he was a child. After a rough impression, he had tried the finished product several times. He called the two bamboo carpenters and asked them to make five shelves according to their own designs. Then he ordered Zhou Er to take the pictures he drew and find the toast in Zhoucheng, and asked him to make straps and leather mats there. He did not have a large piece of cowhide or a leather craftsman.

Three days later, Huang Chengen personally escorted the leather goods to Zhoujia Village and watched Zhou Shixiong install them. Although Zhou Shixiong's design was already very good, there was always a little error in actually making them. After modification, only four shelves were installed.

"Come on, move this box up." Zhou Shixiong asked the bamboo carpenter to make ten wooden boxes of one cubic meter volume, two of them each, and then took the elephant to go up the mountain and down the river to check the quality of the shelves and whether the elephant was injured. Although he could help elephants treat injuries at any time, nothing was better than having it.

"How is it? Can it work?" There is basically no problem with idle rotation, and the rest is the actual cargo delivery experiment. Zhou Shixiong asked Liu Xiucai to pack all the fur accumulated in the village into a box, stuffed it with eight boxes, nailed the box board and covered it with a straw raincoat to cover it with waterproof. Zhou Shixiong rode an elephant without shelves to start the first freight experiment.

It was already evening when we set off, and Huang Chengen was a little puzzled by Zhou Shixiong's choice to set off at this time. "Tashi, these elephants are used to spending the night in the elephant clan. I want to train them to spend the night in the wild. Sooner or later, it doesn't matter if it's sooner or later." Of course, Zhou Shixiong didn't want to waste time. The sooner or later this idea is realized, the more beneficial it will be for him.

After walking in the middle of the night, Zhou Shixiong stopped at a river beside the elephant team. Everyone was busy taking the goods and racks off. Zhou Shixiong also had to take the elephant to eat until midnight. Zhou Shixiong was sleeping among the elephants. Huang Chengen was very disagreeing with Zhou Shixiong's adventurous behavior, but Zhou Shixiong was not afraid at all. It was not that he was brave, but that he knew the habits of elephants. Elephants would not turn around and roll around like humans when sleeping.

The next morning, Zhou Shixiong took the elephant to have a breakfast, then put it on the shelves and continued to set off. In the afternoon of the same day, Zhou Shixiong asked the butler to find someone to weigh the weight of the goods and check the status of the elephant. Each box of goods exceeded 600 kilograms, but the elephant felt nothing at all, and the body value changes were basically no. Zhou Shixiong accepted this behavior, so he found a cobbler to revise the unsuitable leather goods and loaded the empty elephant on the shelves and wooden boxes.
