My travels can open treasure chests

Chapter 374 Modern Tibetan Clothes
All the way north.

As the new year approaches, many more people return home, and the cities along the way are becoming more and more lively.

Sometimes Han Qi stops to go to a restaurant for dinner. When he is not talking, the boss thinks that Han Qi is a local who came back from outside, and he praises him in the local dialect for a long time before he realizes that he has made an oolong.

It took two days for Han Qi to drive out of Liangshan Prefecture and into Ganzi Prefecture.

He was not looking for the shortest route to enter Ganzi, he wanted to drive along the provincial road all the way to National Highway 318, and then drive back to Rongcheng along 318.

318 is a sacred place for cycling in China and even many foreigners. It seems that if you don’t ride this road once, your life will be in vain.

When Han Qi rode to Tibet at the beginning, the route was the more steep Yunnan-Tibet line, and he didn't see this road until he arrived in Tibet.

But that's the second half.

From the road he chose to the Sichuan-Tibet line, the point of convergence is Litang.

Litang is a city that Han Qi has heard about. In order to find out what scenic spots are there in western Sichuan, Han Qi searched for some information on the Internet. Some tourists who have been to Litang spontaneously recommend this place.

It can't be said that the effect is not great, it can only be said that there is no effect at all.

People who come to the Sichuan-Tibet line are all for the scenery of Tibet. When passing through Litang, whether they are cycling or hiking, they all have expectations for the unknown road ahead and feel that they can see more beautiful scenery. Besides, they have just set foot on the national road not long ago, and their mental and physical conditions are very good, so there is no need to rest in Litang.

So every year so many people travel the Sichuan-Tibet line by car, few people are willing to stay in this place.

Han Qi didn't plan to go to Tibet, so after arriving in Litang, Han Qi planned to rest for two days, and then drove all the way back to Rongcheng.

Litang is a small city. There is a place on the road where you can see the panorama of Litang. It doesn’t look as big as Dechang, but the air is fresh. Most of the buildings in the city are red, with red roofs, white walls, and Tibetan architecture. The style is very strong.

Except for the mountainous side of the car, the other side is the grassland.

This is also in line with the habits of the Tibetans. If the land in front is not a grassland, but a continuous rice field, it will be called a damage to the image. Now it is just right, and Han Qi can still see the cattle and sheep grazing on the grassland from a distance .

He quickly went down the mountain to Litang.

Along the way, I saw many slogans such as, Litang welcomes you, a town that must pass through in life, holy Ganzi, and hospitable Litang.

Soon, Han Qi found out that the tourist facilities in Litang are very good. The local government has developed many places and recruited employees to start charging for the scenic spots. The entrance fee is very low, and 20 yuan per person is nothing for tourists. the same.

Where are the scenic spots encountered when traveling out, not dozens or hundreds?In this way, 20 yuan is really nothing.

The inside of the city is also very clean. You can see a trash can every short distance on the street. It looks very new. It should have been installed for a year or two, and it is usually well maintained.

"A very mature travel model."

If it is not for the sparseness of tourists, it is said that this is a popular scenic spot. Han Qiduxin.

The leader in charge of the municipal administration should have worked in some popular scenic spots before. After entering Litang, Han Qi saw many things that were familiar to him. There are many online celebrity tourist cities outside. The difference is that there are no tourists here.

Facilities are hardware, and publicity is software. Now Litang is just a high-end computer without a system, which is useless.

The houses in the city should all have their outer walls repainted, and they look good, and there are quite a lot of hotels. Han Qi entered a hotel just after entering the city.

It can also be said to be a homestay.

There is a small yard at the entrance, where some fish are raised, some clothes and sheets are dried, there are three rooms on the second floor, and three rooms on the third floor.

Han Qi asked the boss who brought him up: "Is it okay to open a homestay business here?"

"Is there any business, no business." The elder brother's Mandarin is not very good, a little blunt, but very enthusiastic, "Most of them are tourists passing through Litang, they are going to Lsa, stay in Litang for one night and then leave Yes, and they generally don’t stay in B&Bs, they prefer to stay in youth hostels.”

Now the [-] route has been commercialized, and there are very cheap hotels along the way for people who ride or hike.

This kind of hotel is almost full every day during the peak season. When encountering a larger motorcade, a motorcade can book the entire hotel, and maybe six people can sleep in one room.

Young people have a good name for it: "Work hard on your body and skin."

But in fact, there is no money.

Those who ride to Tibet are all young people with no savings. They set out with enthusiasm and meticulousness to what to eat for each meal and where to live. They go to places that the Internet says must be visited once in a lifetime. Would not live in such a beautifully decorated homestay.

And rich people are not the majority in the riding army.

It is very difficult to ride alone in Lsa. Everyone is used to make an appointment in advance, and then form a team to help them on March [-]. This kind of team often lives in youth hostels, so those who are not short of money The knights also stopped by.

This is probably the reason why B&Bs along the [-] Road are not so popular.

Especially in Litang, Han Qi thinks that the homestays here should be built for people who come here for travel. You can find a lot of them by searching on your mobile phone, but the number of tourists is too small.

The boss was a little bit emotional: "For one night, it's good enough to have one room. Guest, which one do you want to live in? It's Chinese New Year recently, and there are fewer and fewer tourists. There are no guests in the house."

Others would like to pretend that business is booming if they don't have any business, but this old man didn't hide anything at all, and directly revealed the business status of his homestay.

However, Han Qi is basically determined to live here, whether he has business or not is not a problem.

It is better to have no business, and it is more comfortable to live with fewer people.

He picked the third floor.

There are few high-rise buildings in Litang, and there are more two-story houses. The place where Han Qi lives is also relatively high. From here, you can see a large urban area from the window, and the windows still face the east, which is where the sun rises. , there are no buildings along the way that can block the view.

Well, the location is great.

Looking at the Tibetan-style decorations in the room, Han Qi nodded and said with satisfaction, "I will live here now, thank you brother for bringing me up here."

"Hey, thank you, no thanks, then you can rest here, here is the key, here you are."

After receiving the key, the big man in Tibetan robe bowed his head and walked out of the room.

The door to this room is a bit low which is a drawback.

But just be careful.

The Tibetans here basically belong to the Kangba Tibetans and are tall.

Although they are from Tianfu, their physique is completely comparable to the men in the Northeast, and they are more masculine, because they still have big beards.

I touched a few spots that often need to be cleaned, some are clean, and some have a little dust.

That's good enough, overall the homestay is clean.

Putting down the things, he opened the door and went out. The boss was sitting on the first floor watching TV. The Tibetan TV station was playing Journey to the West translated into Tibetan. Han Qi hurriedly greeted him and went out. Sun Houzi scolded him in Tibetan. Monsters are so magical.

Han Qi found that Litang is a good place to experience Tibetan customs in Tianfu without going to Tibetan areas at all.

One-third of the residents wear Tibetan robes daily, and there are also elderly people walking on the streets with small prayer wheels. There are clothing stores on the streets that sell casual clothes, and some specialize in Tibetan robes.

Han Qi's hobby of buying clothes was activated, and he walked into a shop specializing in Tibetan clothing.

On the left side of the store should be the cash register, and on the right side are a few girls who are making clothes by themselves with cloth.

A shopping guide hurried over and asked, "Do you want to buy clothes?"

"Ah, Tashi Dele!"

With a smile on his face, Han Qi spoke the few Tibetans he knew.

"Tashi Dele." The shopping guide also said.

This sentence was given to Han Qi by Li Xiaochuan, a friend I met while riding. Among the Tibetans, Tashi Dele has a much wider use than the mandarin "You Hao". It can also be said to be a blessing. Anyway, as long as the face For the Tibetans, this sentence must be true.

Han Qi also got a smiling face from the shopping guide.

"I'm from the mainland, and I want to see your clothes here."

"You have such a good figure, you will definitely look good in whatever you wear. If you don't have special needs for clothes, you can take a look at this one."

She gave Han Qi a coat. The overall color of the coat was saffron, but it was decorated with golden yellow. The collar and various edges were also made of golden yellow fabric.Different from the clean and pure saffron, there are some mysterious black silk threads on the golden yellow lines. It feels like there should be some mysterious pattern, very beautiful.

The lining inside feels like silk, and it is also golden yellow. It looks like the material of the dragon robe in the TV.

Of course, the way of buttoning is the same as that on the grassland. Cross the collar and slant the front, tighten the clothes on the right, and then cover the clothes on the left to the right.This is different from the right lapel in ancient China. In Mongolia Chongzuo, even when teaching children to mount a horse, they have to get on from the left, and the clothes are also covered from the left, which is the left lapel.

Han Qi looked at it in front of the mirror, and it looked pretty good.

This kind of clothes is between modern clothes and traditional Tibetan clothes. It is an optimization. Many Tibetan compatriots will buy this kind of clothes when they go to the mainland. They are easy to carry and wear. On this basis, they still retain Tibetan clothes The uniqueness of clothing.

The tour guide stood behind Han Qi. When Han Qi put on her clothes, she instinctively wanted to praise something, but the words gurgled in her throat for a long time before she could utter them.

Too beautiful.

This figure, this face, and this clothes are simply made for you, right?

The shopping guides in the clothing store are always able to find a few advantages to praise no matter what the customers are wearing. They belong to the group of people who understand the minds of beauty lovers the most in the whole country, but at this time she really doesn't know what to say up.

After a while, she said, "You are so pretty."

But it was in Tibetan, what she said subconsciously.

Han Qi didn't understand, so he glanced at her, then opened his hand and asked, "How is it?"

"It's very beautiful. If you wear this dress and walk on the street, I think every Tibetan girl who sees you will fall in love with you, right?"

Hearing such a compliment, Han Qi raised the corner of his mouth slightly, but it was blocked by the mask.

"It's not that exaggerated." Han Qi was modest, and then said: "Then I bought this dress, how much is it?"

"Three dollars."

"..."

It's expensive for such a small place.

There was no price tag on these clothes, and he didn't know the price of the other clothes, so he couldn't make an estimate, so he asked, "Can't you reduce the price?"

"Then... seven hundred?"

Han Qi blinked and looked at her. Just as the tour guide hesitated and reluctantly continued to call for less, Han Qi said directly at this time: "Okay, okay, just seven hundred, thank you."

"Ah, as long as you like it."

The female shopping guide took the clothes to help Han Qi pack, but Han Qi didn't follow, but stood in front of the mirror and looked at herself.

It seems that I will have to find a female shopping guide when I sell things in the future, and the bargaining is so smooth.

Tibetan clothes are indeed more expensive. At the beginning, Han Qi L Sa asked several shops, and they were all hundreds of thousands.At that time, he also wanted to buy some clothes and go to the Potala Palace Square to take pictures for people, because he felt that taking pictures was too profitable, and he only needed to take pictures of tourists ten times to earn back the 1000 yuan for buying clothes.

At that time, I thought it was too expensive and I was not willing to buy it, but now it can be regarded as fulfilling a wish at that time.

Going to pay the bill, the girl at the front desk said to Han Qi: "If it's not suitable, we can help you change it."

"It fits well, I'm well dressed."

After buying it, Han Qi took off his windbreaker and put it in his bag. He walked on the street wearing the Tibetan robe he just bought, and the rate of turning his head increased a lot, and many people took pictures of him with their mobile phones.

Hmm...won't it be TikTok again?
Forget it, anyway, I have to leave tomorrow, the day after tomorrow at the latest, and when the fans in the big team feel that Litang is coming, I will go back early.

Shi Shiran returned to the B&B, the elder brother was eating melon seeds and watching TV, when he looked up and saw a handsome Tibetan boy coming in, he was stunned for a while, and quickly remembered that this was the customer who came to book a room this afternoon, so he quickly Standing up, he came to Han Qi with surprised eyes.

"Yeah, this suits you so well."

"Really? Just bought it."

"Well, these are the improved clothes in our Khamba area. They are very popular among young people, but they are not as good-looking as yours." He said bluntly, with an envious expression on his face.

Han Qi asked: "Then what are these black lines?"

The clothes are relatively dark saffron, but the lines at the cut part are golden yellow, and there are also black lines. Han Qi seems to know why there are these black lines. He always feels that there should be some meaning in them.

"This...is the tiger pattern."

"Tiger stripes?"

"Well, there are many animals in our Kham area, such as tigers, groundhogs and foxes. In recent years, we have not continued to use animal skins on Tibetan robes under the control of the state. The previous clothes were also placed on festivals. Wearing this, you probably want to imitate the tiger pattern, it looks pretty."

"Oh, thank you."

Han Qi wore this dress without buttoning it, and went back to the room in good spirits.

It is a very happy thing to buy a piece of clothing that one likes. Han Qi probably has to be happy for a few hours before he is in the mood for dinner.
