Chapter 213

There are about twenty or thirty people who come to learn tribal dialect. They are all local refugees.

Because the tribe is large and the patriarch is worried that they will work together to make trouble, the refugees live far away and have not seen each other until now.

After getting together, it's hard to avoid greeting. Ask each other where they escaped from, what relatives they have, where they live now and what they are responsible for.

Seeing the refugees chatting, dati and guleton became fierce. Guli waved her whip and threw it on the grass. The grass immediately splashed and startled the refugees.

"Don't talk!" Guli was vicious.

For a time, no refugee dared to speak again.

When Guli saw that her goal had been achieved, she immediately smiled.

At this time, the elegant woman in her 40s opened her mouth. She asked, "are you all here? If you are all here, we will start our class. First introduce myself. My name is Dili Bayer. I used to be a member of the customs. You can call me aunt Bayer or sister Bayer."

Compared with the ferocious looks of dati and Guri, Bayer was much more gentle and kind.

It's rare to see a tribal man who speaks Chinese so well and so gently, and the refugees quieted down one after another.

Then Bayer said, "before learning the language, I'd like to introduce you to the Tianshan tribe. Tianshan is the towering mountain in the distance, which is called in the local dialect..."

Bayer introduced and taught everyone how to pronounce. Then I'll teach you some daily conversations, how to say hello to the locals, and what customs and taboos the locals have.

After speaking for about an hour, the class ended. Everyone gained a lot. When they were dissolved, they also directly used the local dialect they had just learned to communicate, which can be described as flexible learning and use.

Anyway, it's a long way to go back.

Ye Xiaoxian discussed with Liu Yuanwai that she could walk more closely with aunt Bayer in the future. It's always good to walk more closely.

……

In addition to making potato chips, ye Xiaoxian occasionally goes to the market to see the local people's habits and ways to make money.

Later, when I looked at it, I also made some mistakes, but I didn't have enough capital on hand and can't implement it at present. It seems that I still have to solve the livelihood problem first.

It's getting colder again.

There is a big temperature difference in this place and it is very cold in winter. Although everyone has bought some new winter clothes on the road, they are obviously not warm enough. They have to wear sheep's skin coats and wool boots. The cloth shoes they wear in the south are of no use at all.

Wang Mudan didn't even have to wear cloth shoes in winter in the countryside. He wore straw sandals, not to mention socks, but he couldn't carry it at night here.

Ye Xiaoxian thought that everyone would buy new clothes.

She communicated with Liu Yuanwai to see whether the two families bought together or separately. If they bought together, the style would be the same, and the servants could wear the same regardless of their masters and servants.

If she buys separately, she only cares about her own house, regardless of others.

Of course, Mr. Liu thought it would be easier for everyone to buy together. Maybe we can bargain and make it cheaper.

Besides, at this point, the servants have been protecting them all the way. When they arrived here, the servants didn't give less money and effort. If they really calculate the labor and money, the servants will make more money than them.

So, let's buy it together.

That day, after aunt Bayer's language class, ye Xiaoxian went to Aunt Bayer alone and asked her, "aunt Bayer, the weather is cold now, and our party is short of clothes. I would like to ask you where you can buy cheap materials, fabrics and wool?"

Aunt Bayer saw that it was Ye Xiaoxian. These days, she had a good impression of Ye Xiaoxian. She had a positive attitude in class, could actively ask questions and learned quickly.

So Bayer's attitude towards Ye Xiaoxian was good: "do you want to buy wool to sew by yourself, or buy ready-made ones?"

Ye Xiaoxian was embarrassed and said, "originally I wanted to buy ready-made ones, but ready-made ones must be expensive, and we have a large demand. It is more suitable to buy materials to sew now. We don't have much else, so we have more hands."

"Oh, I'll be careful." Aunt Bayer said.

Guli has been staring at the refugees. Now the other refugees are scattered, but ye Xiaoxian approaches aunt Bayer. She is very unhappy, so she waves a big whip and hits Ye Xiaoxian on the grass next to her.

Ye Xiaoxian was not afraid, but turned around and asked Guli faintly, "what's the matter?"

Guli looked fierce: "what's the matter with you? Class is over and I'm leaving!"

Ye Xiaoxian said, "I have something to ask aunt Bayer."

"No, no!" After Guli said "no", she burst out a series of local words, which ye Xiaoxian didn't understand very well.

Aunt Bayer couldn't help welcoming her and said to Guli, "I'll talk to this girl. It's okay."

Guli was alert and said, "people in the pass have many tricks."

"I used to be a member of the customs. Do I have many plans?" Bayer took it back impolitely.

Guleton was speechless and had to step aside.

Bayer smiled at Ye Xiaoxian again.

Everyone in this tribe is afraid of Guli, especially the refugees, but ye Xiaoxian just behaved very steadily and was not afraid of her appearance at all, which makes Bayer admire Ye Xiaoxian very much.

Bayer said, "you want to buy wool, I also have it there. I dried it last year. As for the material of clothes, see how much you want. I can go to Aunt Jill of the tribe to help you get some. Her husband is in the fabric business. I see if it can be cheaper."

Ye Xiaoxian immediately smiled and said, "OK, I have 20 people there. If there are many colors, we can ask for more materials. We can come separately."

Bayer added: "you just came here to wear clothes in the pass, but now you're in the tribe. When cutting new clothes, it's best to cut them into the style of local people. First, it shows your sincerity to integrate. Second, the clothes here are suitable for the climate here."

Ye Xiaoxian agreed and said again, "we just don't understand the clothes here. When we cut the clothes, can aunt Bayer give us some advice?"

"Of course." Aunt Bayer said.

“……”

The matter was settled. Bayer helped find materials, while ye Xiaoxian asked Li Hongmei, Wang Mudan, Chen Ju and Liu's in laws to learn to sew local style clothes with Bayer's family.

Guli didn't agree with this. She wanted refugees to become slaves of the tribe or tools to make money. Unexpectedly, these people wanted to be friends of the tribe.
