mage in the late qing dynasty

Chapter 567 Leave a Way Out for the Athletes
Miao Cuihua first asked the two children: "Are you cold?"

Li Anyang said little, just shook his head.

Jiang Mingxin spoke closely: "Mother, I run outside every day, how can I be cold?"

Miao Cuihua took them out of the carriage.

Li Zining was shocked by the cold wind that came in after opening the door, and his body began to sway: "I won't go, go back to warm up first."

In later generations, many southerners who had never been outside the pass said with their nostrils up that the outside of the pass was only well-equipped, not that people could withstand the cold.

But if you really go outside the customs at the coldest time, the same equipment will be frozen and numb, especially in the ravines.

The winter outside the Guan at this time is 21 to 5 degrees cooler than in the 10st century, because there are many trees.

The role of trees in regulating the climate is so great that those who have never experienced it do not know the importance of trees.

When Zhao Chuanxin was a child, there was serious deforestation and illegal logging outside the customs, frequent floods during the rainy season, and occasional landslides.After control, it gradually improved.

After the forests became denser, the temperature dropped sharply. On the hottest summer night, wearing shorts in the ravine would feel cold. No matter how much rain fell, the water level would only rise a little.Because the tree roots on the mountain have not even absorbed the water, let alone the water.

This is also the reason why Zhao Chuanxin strictly controls the mountainous area within a hundred and fifty miles of Lugang Township, and the Japanese are strictly prohibited from plundering the natural resources here.

The Central Plains region, which has been developed for thousands of years, has little ability to withstand disasters. Natural disasters frequently visit, and the people suffer unspeakably.

It snows in New York, too, but not as much as here in Deer Hill.

Rachel Kervez was wearing a padded jacket in the car, but her bloated appearance made her look a bit playful.

And Samuel Goldberg is clumsy and funny.

The snow on Shitiao Road had been cleared long ago, and the three adults and two children were strolling around the shops on the street.

Rachel Kervis pointed to a ready-to-wear store and said, "Go in and have a look."

In other cities, Rachel Kervez also went to clothing stores, but to be honest, there are very few clothes that she can fancy. People at this time pay attention to practicality. Shelved as a souvenir, whether rich or not.

Therefore, seeing clothes with a strong Chinese style, Rachel Kervis found it really difficult to start.

Let’s say that when the early Manchus first entered the customs, women’s hairstyles and clothing were also influenced by the Ming Dynasty and the Mongols.The skirt is a pleated style in the south during the Ming Dynasty, and it is longer than armor.Although it is not left-handed, the front is thin and long, the cuffs are small, the style and color matching are harmonious and elegant, and it looks very feminine.

With the change of time, the aesthetics of the Manchus from the upper class began to become more and more sickly and deformed, and the clothes gradually changed into the current cheongsam. This kind of cheongsam is not the kind of cheongsam with slits and thighs exposed in later generations, but looks like a bloated one. The same style as the nouveau riche, the hair also needs to be cut, that is, the big forehead is shaved.

All in all, it can be described in three words - earthy and round.

The Manchus managed to make themselves look ugly and vulgar.

That kind of dress, Rachel Kervis really turned off.

Although this shop also has a strong Chinese style, it is refreshing.

A few people stepped into the shop, and the saleswoman's eyes lit up: "Sister Hua, when did you come back?"

Miao Cuihua held her hand: "I just got out of the car, how is the business going?"

"Very good, under the guidance of Sister Hua, how can there be a bad deal?"

Miao Cuihua is the number one fashion trend vane in Lugang Town. Under the influence of Zhao Chuanxin's aesthetics, she opened up the two channels of fashion for her.

At first, many people pointed at her "extraordinary clothes", but later, driven by the various trendy military uniforms of the insurance team, the acceptance of Miao Cuihua's clothes became more and more popular, so that it became a popular trend later.

Looking back, everyone realized that their clothes were so ugly.

The people in the clothing store are interested in making friends, so please ask Miao Cuihua for advice.

This store is one of them.

Miao Cuihua pointed to Rachel Kervez and said, "This is a friend from New York, USA. Call her Kervez and show her."

The clerk blinked: "Oh, so it's the big benefactor."

But there is no other place to see the servile attitude of foreigners.

The people in Lugang Town are proud.

Rachel Kvis looked at the environment. There were magnificent chandeliers hanging on the ceiling, and the paintings on the walls illuminated by the bright light.

These paintings are very distinctive. They are portraits of Emperor Shenzong of the Song Dynasty, wearing dragon and phoenix flower hairpins and other shoulder crowns, and wearing Huajin robes with cross-collared sleeves, sitting on a chair with a dignified expression.

Next to it is a picture of flying in the sky in a Dunhuang mural.

The edges of these paintings are cut diagonally, and the three pieces are in one, like a huge and distorted bookmark, which looks very distinctive even in the 21st century.

In the clothing display area, there are rows of cotton and down jackets hanging on wooden hangers, all of which are women's styles.Among them is the long brocade-faced down jacket in the style of small clusters of flowers worn by Empress Song Shenzong.

The style is the same, but in terms of style, the collar has the charm of cross collar, and there is a waist design of white jade belt at the waist.

There is nothing wrong with drawing and this dress alone, but comparing them together makes Rachel Kervis goosebumps.

She pointed and said in blunt Chinese, "I can?"

The clerk smiled and extended his hand politely: "Please."

It was very light and warm when she wore it. The satin was smooth on the outside and the velvet lining was soft and comfortable. The clerk helped her adjust the belt from the back, and it immediately showed a thin waist after tightening it.

There is also a floor-to-ceiling mirror in the store, which is also an eye-catching place. Such a large mirror is rare.

Rachel Kvis took a photo, turned slightly, and couldn't help exclaiming: "Wow, Lugang Township is simply the Paris of the East, it's so beautiful."

A perfect combination of oriental classical and modern clothing.

The clerk pulled out a brochure and showed it to Rachel Kervis.

The paintings on it are lifelike and cute women. The clerk turned to one of the pages, and it was the cartoon model of this down jacket.

The clerk said, "It looks better if you wear it like this."

There are two kinds of outfits on the top, one is a down jacket with a woolen sweater inside, trousers and short leather boots underneath, and the second is a down jacket with a shirt and a long skirt underneath.

Good guy, everything in the two outfits is prepared in the store. If you wear it like this, you have to buy a full set.

Rachel Kwiss even fell in love with the picture book: "Is this picture book for sale?"

The clerk smiled and shook his head: "This is the painting of the first successor of the 'War God Wind' school. The artist worked for the "Lugang Town Journal". It cost me a lot of money to ask him to draw such a copy."

The so-called "War God Style School" was actually led by Zhao Chuanxin, which is similar to the illustration style.

The illustrations in the "Lugang Town Journal" are all drawn in this way.

The clerk managed to get Rachel Kervis to consume the whole set, and couldn't help but smile, feeling that the trip was worthwhile.

There are no high-rise buildings in Lugang Town, but it is extremely exquisite and has a 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 and squares, and cars can even be seen on the streets, and bicycles are not new.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 in New York where birds are not willing to fly, but neatly arranged together.The people here don’t see that kind of insensitivity on their faces. People wear fresh and fashionable clothes. Except for a few yin and yang heads, the hairstyles of men and women here are very elegant.

Samuel Goldberg pointed to a spiritual guy passing by and asked, "Where did they get their hair trimmed? Can you take me there?"

Miao Cuihua smiled and took them to Zhang Daquan's chain barber shop.

Zhang Dazhu's younger brother, Zhang Dazhu, happened to be there, and Miao Cuihua said, "Dazhu, this is a friend who passed on the salary. His name is Samuel Goldberg. You can call him Samuel, and give him a haircut."

At the beginning, Zhang Dazhu and Zhao Chuanxin learned the art of haircutting, and the young ones are better than the blue ones, and now they have become the No. 1 barber in Lugang Town, with apprentices everywhere.

"Okay, Sister Hua, how do you want to cut this man?"

Miao Cuihua asked a few words, and said to Zhang Daquan: "Don't you have that booklet? Show it to him."

Zhang Daquan gave him the hairstyle booklet and explained: "Choose the corresponding hairstyle according to the shape of your face."

Broken hair, airplane head, front stab; round inch, gradient, oil head; chestnut head, carving, three to seven points...

I blanched... Samuel Goldberg was shocked.

In a small town in the bitter cold inland of China, if you find a barber shop at random, the barber shop can surpass the whole New York!
Seeing his fuss, Zhang Dazhu curled his lips: Can you do it, Shelby?A look that has never seen the world.

Samuel Goldberg still didn't dare to choose a trendy hairstyle. After choosing it, Zhang Dazhu unscrupulously pulled his head: "Don't tell me, this foreigner's head looks weird..."

……

Zhao Chuanxin took Benjamin Goldberg and Ganfan to Big Wave Bay in one go.

"Master is freezing to death, let's go ashore to warm up."

Looking at the rushing waves, Zhao Chuanxin said, "Master can't freeze to death, but apprentice is nothing."

"..."

Here is the horn that extends 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 warm up here by the fire, and I'll go eat on the hour."

He put on a sharkskin swimsuit, put on diving goggles, and plunged into the icy water.

In fact, the feeling after entering the sea is warmer than the wind blowing on the sea.

He held his breath and dived into the depths.

Running and running, smart gyroscope vibration reminder.

At this time, the depth of the water was about 20 meters, and the sunlight could still shine in. Zhao Chuanxin tilted his head slightly and saw a big gray head.

This is the horror in the sea, maybe an unexpected creature will appear at any time.

This is a grouper, nearly one meter long, and should be no less than 15 catties.

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 led him to swim at high speed. The elf carving knife pierced into the head of the grouper with lightning speed, and after a stir, the grouper floated before it even had time to struggle .

Zhao Chuanxin took out the rope and threaded it through its gills to tie it. When he saw a gray tail protruding from the crevices of the reef, the corner of his mouth couldn't help but twitch.

He swam over, held it with both hands, and with a jerk pulled a corrugated lobster out of the crevice of the reef where it was hiding.

It struggled violently, but it couldn't escape Zhao Chuanxin's clutches.

This shrimp must be forty centimeters long.

At the beginning of the [-]th century, what satisfied Zhao Chuanxin most was not the air, because it was no longer fresh, but the abundance of seafood.

Large in number and big in size.

The lobster has been struggling, so Zhao Chuanxin just gave it a head.

Dragging grouper and lobster ashore.

"Benjamin, come and chop the garlic."

Benjamin Goldberg thought to himself that this is a little bit of effort, the master dragged up such a big fish, and he always said that he didn't know magic, and he always emphasized that people should not be superstitious...

Zhao Chuanxin cleaned up the fish and shrimp, and Benjamin Goldberg grilled and mashed the garlic.

Taking out the chopping board, Zhao Chuanxin chopped the fish and shrimp into eight pieces.

The fish was fried in a hot pan with cold oil, and the sizzling sound was accompanied by the scorched aroma, and Benjamin Goldberg began to slur.

After being frozen for such a long time, the heat loss is severe, and there is an urgent need to replenish the state.

Onion, ginger, garlic and spicy skin, cooking wine, salt, sugar, soy sauce, rosemary, herb powder, and lemon zest. After adding a little water, Zhao Chuanxin picked up the ladle and controlled the heat with a distance. He served it for at least seven or eight minutes.

You must know that the weight of the pot with the fish and water and the horse spoon is about fifteen to twenty catties.

This is not holding it once, but holding it all the time.

Benjamin Goldberg looked in admiration: "Master, you are so amazing, you should go to this year's London Olympics."

Zhao Chuanxin put down the pot and started to collect the juice: "Let's leave a way for those athletes to survive. Participate as a teacher, I'm afraid it will leave a psychological shadow on the Olympic athletes in the next few decades."

　Is this coming without an update?
