Miao Cuihua first asked the two children, "Are you cold?"
Li Anyang said little and just shook his head.
Jiang Mingxin whispered, "Mom, I run outside every day, how can I be cold?"
Miao Cuihua took them out of the carriage.
Li Zining was aroused by the cold wind that came in after opening the door, and his body began to sway. "I won't go. I will go back to warm up first."
There are many southerners in later generations who have never been outside the customs. , with his nostrils turned up in the sky, said that people outside the pass are just well-equipped, not people who can withstand the cold.
But if you go outside the customs in the coldest time, the same equipment will be numb from the cold, especially in the ravine.
The winter outside Guan at this time is 5 to 10 degrees cooler than in the 21st century because there are more trees.
Trees have such a great role in regulating the climate that people who have never experienced it simply don’t know the importance of trees.
When Zhao Chuanxin was a child, illegal logging was a serious phenomenon outside the customs, with frequent floods during the rainy season and occasional landslides. After being under control, the condition gradually improved.
After the forest became denser, the temperature dropped sharply. On the hottest night in summer, even wearing shorts in the ravine would feel cold. No matter how hard it rained, the water level would only rise a little. Because the tree roots on the mountain haven't even absorbed enough water, let alone rising water.
This is also the reason why Zhao Chuanxin strictly controls the mountainous area within 150 miles of Lugang Town, strictly prohibiting the Japanese from plundering the natural resources here.
The Central Plains region, which has been developed for thousands of years, does not have much ability to withstand disasters. Natural disasters occur frequently and the people are miserable.
It also snows in New York, but it is incomparable to that here in Lugang Town.
Rachel Kervis was wearing a cotton-padded jacket in the car, and her bloated appearance actually made her look a little naughty.
And Samuel Goldberg is clumsy and funny.
The snow on the stone road has long been cleared away, and the three adults and two children were shopping in the street shops.
Rachel Kervis pointed to a ready-made clothing store and said, "Go in and have a look."
In other cities, Rachel Kervis has also visited ready-made clothing stores, but it is true She said that there were only a few clothes that she liked. People at this time were very practical. When you buy something like clothes, you have to wear them. You can't just put them away as souvenirs, no matter if you have money or not.
So, when Rachel Kevis saw clothes with a strong Chinese style, it was really difficult to buy them.
In the early days when the Manchus first entered the country, women's hairstyles and clothing were still influenced by the Ming Dynasty and the Mongolian people. The skirt is a pleated style from the south during the Ming Dynasty and is longer than the armor. Although it doesn't have a left crotch, it is slim and long at the same time, with small cuffs. The style and color scheme are elegant, making it look very feminine.
With the passage of time, the aesthetics of the Manchus from the upper class began to become more and more morbid and deformed, and their clothes gradually transformed into today's cheongsam. This kind of cheongsam is not the cheongsam of later generations with slits to expose the thighs. Instead, it looks like a bloated nouveau riche style, and the hair must be parted, that is, the forehead must be shaved to create a large forehead.
To summarize, three words can describe Tufeiyuan.
The Manchus succeeded in dressing themselves in an ugly and vulgar way.
That kind of clothes is really off-putting to Rachel Kervis.
Although this shop also has a strong Chinese style, it is refreshing.
A few people walked into the shop, and the female clerk's eyes lit up, "Sister Hua, when did you come back?"
Miao Cuihua held her hand and said, "I just got out of the car. How are you doing the business?" "Like this"
"It's very good. Under Sister Hua's guidance, there is no bad business"
Miao Cuihua is the number one fashion trend vane in Lugang Town. Zhao Chuanxin Under the influence of her aesthetics, she opened up the fashion world.
At first, many people pointed out her "fancy clothes", but later, driven by the insurance team's various trendy military uniforms, they became more and more accepting of Miao Cuihua's clothes, so that she later became popular trends.
When they turned around, everyone realized that their outfits were so ugly.
If you want to make friends with someone from a clothing store, please ask Miao Cuihua for advice.
This store is one of them.
Miao Cuihua pointed at Rachel Kervis and said, "This is a friend from New York, USA. Call her Kervis and show her."
The clerk winked. Blinking: "Oh, it turns out to be the big money owner."
But there is no trace of the servile attitude of foreigners seen elsewhere.
The people of Lugang Town are proud.
Rachel Kvis looked at the environment. There were magnificent chandeliers hanging on the ceiling, and the paintings on the walls were illuminated by bright light.
These paintings are very distinctive. They depict the portrait of Emperor Shenzong of the Song Dynasty, wearing shoulder crowns such as dragons, phoenixes and flower hairpins, and wearing brocade robes with cross-collars and large sleeves, sitting on a chair with a dignified expression.
Next to it is a picture of the Flying Sky from Dunhuang murals.
The edges of these paintings are cut at diagonal lines, and the three paintings are integrated into one, like huge and twisted bookmarks, which look very distinctive even in the 21st century.
In the clothing display area, rows of cotton coats and down jackets are hung on wooden hangers, all of which are women's styles. Among them is the long brocade down jacket with small clusters of flowers worn by Empress Shenzong of the Song Dynasty.
The styles are the same, but in terms of style, the collar also has the charm of cross-collaring, and the waistband also has a waist-cinching design with a white jade belt.
Taking it out alone, the painting and the dress are nothing, but when compared together, it makes Rachel Kervis's skin crawl.
She pointed and said "I can do it" in blunt Chinese.
The clerk smiled and politely stretched out his hand, "Please."
Wearing it on the body is special. It was light and warm, with smooth satin on the outside and soft and comfortable velvet lining. The store clerk helped her adjust the belt from the back, and after tightening it, her slender waist was immediately revealed.
There is also a floor-to-ceiling mirror in the store, which is also an eye-catching feature. Such a large mirror is rare.
Rachel Kevis took the photo, turned slightly, and couldn’t help but exclaimed, “Wow, Lugang Town is so oriental.Paris, this is so beautiful. ”
The perfect combination of oriental classical and modern clothing.
The clerk took out a brochure and turned it over to Rachel Kervis.
The picture above is a A realistic and cute woman, the clerk turned to one of the pages, and it was the cartoon model of this down jacket.
The clerk said, "It will look better if you wear it this way." ”
There are two outfits above, one is a down jacket with a woolen sweater underneath, trousers and short leather boots underneath, the second is a down jacket with a shirt, and a long skirt layered underneath.
Hey guys, everything in the two outfits is prepared in the store. If you wear it like this, you have to buy the complete set.
Rachel Kevislian. They all fell in love with the picture album. "Will this picture album sell?"
The clerk smiled and shook his head, "This was painted by the first successor of the God of War style painting school. The painter worked for the Lugang Town Journal and asked him to paint like this. One copy, but it cost me a lot of money. "
The so-called "War God Style Painting School" was actually led by Zhao Chuanxin, which is similar to the illustration style.
The illustrations in Lugang Town Journals are all drawn in this way.< /p>
The clerk successfully made Rachel Kevis purchase the whole set, and she couldn't help but smile, feeling that the trip was worthwhile.
Lugang Town does not have high-rise buildings, but it is extremely exquisite and has complete infrastructure. Rachel Kervis feels that living here is more convenient than New York.
There are not only movie theaters, theaters, various Chinese and Western restaurants, but also hospitals and schools, lakes, squares, and even streets. You can see cars, not to mention bicycles. There are street lights on both sides of the road, and wires can be seen overhead, but they are far from the messy telegraph wires like in New York, where the people here are neatly organized. You don’t see that kind of insensitivity on the street. People are dressed in fresh and fashionable clothes. Except for a few with male and female hair, men and women here have very elegant hairstyles.
Samuel Goldberg pointed to a spirited young man passing by and asked, "Theirs." Can you take me to where your hair is trimmed?"
Miao Cuihua smiled and took them to Zhang Daquan's chain barber shop.
Zhang Daquan's younger brother Zhang Dazhu happened to be Now, Miao Cuihua said, "Dazhu, this is my friend who passed on the salary. His name is Samuel Goldberg. Just call him Samuel. Give him a haircut." "
Zhang Dazhu learned the art of barbering from Zhao Chuanxin, and he was better than his master. Now he has become the number one barber in Lugang Town, with apprentices everywhere.
"Okay. Sister Hua, ask this man how he wants to cut it."
Miao Cuihua asked a few questions and said to Zhang Daquan, "Don't you have that booklet? Show it to him." ”
Zhang Daquan gave him the hairstyle book and explained, “Choose the corresponding hairstyle according to your face shape. ”
Broken hair, airplane head, front thorns; round inches, gradient, oily head; chestnut head, sculpture, three-quarter length
I blanch Samuel Goldberg and was shocked
Look for a small town in a bitter cold land in China.A barber shop with more tricks than all in New York
Seeing him making a fuss, Zhang Dazhu curled his lips, okay? Shelby looked like he had never seen the world. < /p>
Zhao Chuanxin took Benjamin Goldberg and Ganfan and rushed to Dalangwan in one go.
"Master is freezing to death, let's go ashore to warm up."
Zhao Chuanxin looked at the rushing waves and said, "Master can't freeze to death, but the apprentice can't do anything."
""
This is the horn extending from the island, and the whole body looks like a spear.
This is called Huangmaojiao.
After landing, Zhao Chuanxin took out the charcoal stove and lit it.
There is a lighthouse on the hill, but it is deserted.
Zhao Chuanxin said, "You stay here to warm yourself by the fire, and I'll go get some food."
He put on a shark skin water support, put on his diving goggles, and dived in In the cold sea water.
In fact, the feeling after entering the sea is warmer than the wind blowing from the sea.
He held his breath and dived deeper.
While running, the smart gyroscope vibrates to remind you.
At this time, the water depth was about twenty meters, and the sun could still shine in. Zhao Chuanxin tilted his head slightly and saw a big, gray head.
This is the horror of the sea. An unexpected creature may appear at any time.
This is a grouper, nearly one meter long, and should weigh at least 15 pounds.
Even seeing a fish nearly one meter long in fresh water can startle it.
Zhao Chuanxin pulled out the elf carving knife, and the smart gyroscope took him to swim quickly. The elf carving knife penetrated into the head of the grouper with lightning speed, and stirred up the grouper. He drifted away before he even had time to struggle.
Zhao Chuanxin took out the rope, threaded it through its gills and tied it. When he saw a gray tail protruding from the cracks in the rocks, he couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth.
He swam over, held it with both hands, and with a sudden pull, pulled a corrugated lobster out of the gap in the reef where it was hiding.
It struggled fiercely, but it could not escape Zhao Chuanxin's clutches.
This shrimp must be forty centimeters long.
At the beginning of the 20th century, what satisfied Zhao Chuanxin most was not the air, which was no longer fresh, but the abundant seafood.
There are many and they are big.
The lobster kept struggling, so Zhao Chuanxin simply gave it a blow on the head.
Drag grouper and lobster ashore.
"Benjamin, come over and chop the garlic."
Benjamin Goldberg said to himself that this is a big effort, but the master dragged up such a big fish, and he always said that he He doesn’t know magic, but always emphasizes that people should not be superstitious
Zhao Chuanxin cleans up fish and shrimps, and Benjamin Goldberg picks garlic and pounds it.Garlic paste.
Taking out the chopping board, Zhao Chuanxian cut the fish and shrimp into eight pieces.
As the fish was fried in cold oil in a hot pan, the sizzling sound was accompanied by the aroma of burnt food, and Benjamin Goldberg began to sweat.
After being frozen for so long, the heat has been lost so much that I urgently need to replenish my health.
Onion, ginger, garlic and spicy skin, cooking wine, salt, sugar and soy sauce, rosemary, vanilla and lemon peel. After adding a little water, Zhao Chuanxin picked up the horse spoon and used distance to control the heat. It turned out to be just like this It took at least seven or eight minutes.
You must know that the fish, water and horse spoon in the pot weigh about fifteen to twenty kilograms.
This is not just holding it, but holding it all the time.
Benjamin Goldberg looked in admiration, "Master, you are so amazing, you should participate in this year's London Olympics."
Zhao Chuanxin put down the pot and started to heat up the juice. "Leave a way for those athletes to survive. If you participate as a teacher, I'm afraid it will leave a psychological shadow on the Olympic athletes in the next few decades."
