on the third day, I began to enter the shopping store.
The first shopping spot: Dongqing Water Village
Get up at 4: 3 and leave at 5: , before dawn.
On the way to this place, the ground tour guides began to publicize the various benefits of silver. Why do ethnic minorities like to wear silver ornaments? Why do Dong people in the depths of the mountains live a long life when medical conditions are very inconvenient?
We have come so early, and several buses have already arrived. Middle-aged and elderly women from all over the country are vying for photos at the gate.
This place is euphemistically called "Dong Ancient Village", but it is actually a newly-built commercial attraction, with the main purpose of selling silverware and silver ornaments. It is said that every family is a resident who moved down from the stockade. In fact, no one in every family really lives. Each group has a shopping guide, and they are all dressed in Dong costumes. Everyone will pin a silver comb on his head, saying that she is a cultural representative of the village faction, taking us to her home as a guest, and asking that when we arrive at her home, we must do as the Romans do and sit down, but we can't take pictures.
The door of every household is open, but a shopping guide is a "home" and you can't just enter. A woman stood in a shed by the roadside, and the shopping guide stopped to introduce: "Dong people are a monster, and their hair is worn in front of their hats." The woman will spread out her long hair, and tourists will admire: "Wow, it's so long and dark!" " The shopping guide said that it was washed with rice and combed with a silver comb.
After sitting down at the shopping guide's "home", she began to introduce the method of combing her hair with a silver comb and the benefits of soaking water with silver, and then found someone to go up and experience scraping with her silver comb. Of course, it's blowing red.
Finally, "Sister-in-law" took us to a silver selling venue. Before entering the venue, the shopping guides will have a unified statement, which probably means that the money outside is not as good as theirs, and it will be poisoned if you soak in water for a long time.
The silver in the venue costs about 28.9 yuan a gram, a silver bracelet costs more than 8 yuan, and a silver comb costs more than 1, yuan, which is half as expensive as that in our shopping mall. As for whether it is so-called handmade, and whether everything can really be soaked in water for health and disease prevention, I won't make a conclusion here, because I'm not a medical expert, I'm just a travel enthusiast, and I record the facts and don't talk nonsense.
The second shopping spot in the morning: Kitchenware Exhibition Hall
This is a venue for selling kitchenware. After going in, first introduce a thermos cup and demonstrate how to cook porridge with rice. Then I took it into a small sample exhibition room and began to introduce the "Dr. Chef" brand pots, knives, chopping boards and so on. An iron pot and a "Dr. Chef" pot were used to demonstrate the hard work of frying eggs, sesame sugar and popcorn, as well as throwing chopping boards and cutting aluminum alloy with knives. The comparison results showed that the chopping boards were easy to clean, the knives did not curl, the Dr. Chef's pot had no oil smoke, was non-stick, and the four walls and the bottom of the pot were at the same temperature, saving gas, at 168 yuan each, and two knives with a price of 598 yuan were given.
attractive enough? But no one in our regiment laid hands on him. I remember a friend who joined such a group a few days ago. She bought a pot and sent a WeChat asking her what she bought. She replied: I used lampblack when I got home. I immediately checked Baidu, and most netizens said that this kind of pot was exaggerated. Some netizens said that they used a special kind of oil for demonstration, which could not smoke in case of iron pot and stainless steel.
of course I won't buy it when I know it, but it's hard to tell others, because the tour guides have repeatedly stressed that what you don't buy can't interfere with others not buying it!
After sitting for a while, the tour guide came in and said unhappily, "You more than 3 people can't let me beat eggs!" If we don't leave, we will continue to sit inside. After sitting for a long time, it began to have an effect. People began to consult and buy small appliances such as chopping boards and paring knives, and opened several orders one after another with "2 yuan bought chopping boards and sent paring knives". It was not until after twelve o'clock that we were allowed to have lunch.
In the afternoon, the shopping shops are herbs and latex mattresses. The next part continues to introduce.
In addition, I will tell you the secret recipe of Dong people's treatment taught by Sister-in-law, the shopping guide who sells silver:
1. Curing pharyngolaryngitis: pickled white radish with honey, eaten in the morning and evening, will cure pharyngolaryngitis in a week.
2. Mash the purple-skinned garlic and add rock sugar (no water in the bowl), add water to the pot and steam until cooked, and stop coughing immediately after eating.
what's the effect? I haven't tried it yet. I wonder if it's as magical as a silver comb and a smokeless pot.
