Several bodyguards nodded in agreement very affirmatively.
Yang Jing put away the two nautical charts with a smile, and then said: "Can't you see that this nautical chart is incomplete? Please, can you use your brains? Let alone whether this nautical chart is a pirate's treasure map, just in this incomplete state, where can you let us find the destination? It's easy to get a ship now, but after getting the ship, are we going to circle around in the Atlantic Ocean for fun?"
Clark, a tall and strong man, grunted for a long time before he said embarrassedly: "Boss, we just want to follow you to find the legendary pirate treasure..."
Yang Jing smiled bitterly and said, "OK, actually I also want to find a pirate treasure, okay? But now we obviously don't have such conditions. If this nautical chart is really collected in the future, I will definitely take you to search the Atlantic Ocean together, okay? As for now, let's just stroll around this flea market peacefully."
The bodyguards then gathered their thoughts and continued to follow Yang Jing as he visited the flea market.
After walking for a while, Yang Jing saw a small area that was different from the others.
The reason why this small area is different from others is mainly because the people setting up stalls in this small area are obviously all the indigenous people of North America - Indians.
Most of the other stall owners were wearing jeans or work clothes, but the stall owners in this small area were all wearing clothes with Indian characteristics. One stall owner was even more amazing. He even wore a full set of Indian clothes, completely ignoring the fact that the temperature today was already over 20 degrees.
Chris explained, "Boss, Oklahoma, which borders northern Texas, is currently the largest gathering place for Native Americans in the United States. In the early 20th century, as a large amount of oil was discovered in the West, white people began to move into the West in large numbers, which resulted in increasingly fierce conflicts between white people and Indians. Under such circumstances, the US government began to relocate Indians in the United States in the 1920s and 1930s, and eventually made Oklahoma the largest gathering place for Native Americans."
Clark added: "In fact, the name Oklahoma is taken from the Indian language, which means 'red man', referring to the Native Americans."
Chris added: "As a state bordering Oklahoma, Texas actually has many Indian settlements. Even in the oil city of Beaumont, there is a large Indian settlement. It is normal to see Indian stalls here."
Several people walked over and Yang Jing squatted down in front of a stall.
This is a handicraft stall with strong Indian characteristics. The small stall is filled with Indian handicrafts.
As the indigenous people of North America, the Indians have a much longer history than the United States, so they have many handicrafts with exquisite craftsmanship.
For example, horses are the most important companions in the lives of Indians, so painted horse sculptures are the most famous handicrafts of Indians. There are no less than 20 painted horse sculptures on this stall, of different sizes and shapes, but each one is lifelike.
In addition, there are other handicrafts, such as pottery jars, clay sculptures, jewelry, fabrics, etc., all of which bear the characteristics of indigenous Indian culture.
Yang Jing also saw pieces of cloth dyed in various colors. Yang Jing knew that these pieces of cloth should be the bark cloth invented by the Indians.
As the name suggests, this kind of cloth is made of tree bark, and its production process is relatively complicated. First, cut down a grown tree. The tree has two layers of bark. Throw away the harder outer layer of bark, peel off the inner bark, and soak it in sea water for more than half a month. The bark will become soft and tough. After soaking, take the bark to the sun and start beating it with a wooden stick to make it white. Finally, soak it in clean water. Isn't the bark almost done? However, for the sake of beauty, the Indians will make patterns on the cloth. The cloth made in this way is as thin as gauze and very beautiful. Then dye it with various colors, and it becomes the bark cloth in front of you.
Of course, in addition to these things, there are also various feather ornaments, which are also the characteristics of the Indians.
The dazzling array of handicrafts in front of him were truly extremely beautiful, and Yang Jing knew that these handicrafts were absolutely all handmade, and could not be compared with the machine-made handicrafts sold in shops in big cities.
