Global Food Tour

Chapter 182 The colorful street market, fierce bargaining! 【Third update】

The good-looking audience also began to encourage Zhang Feng to touch it, but Zhang Feng rejected it verbally.

"You guys are so pitiful. If I let this wall collapse, I guess I'll just be in jail for a few years?" Zhang Feng said speechlessly, but he knew that it was just a joke of the audience.

"I'm going to say a few words. When visiting places of interest, don't touch them without quality like I did just now. That's not good." Zhang Feng said.

[Haha, the anchor won't even let himself go when he's serious! 】

[Just now when I went upstairs, I had to touch it, otherwise what would I do if I fell down? 】

……

"Go, go upstairs, take a look at all the mountains!" Zhang Feng followed the signs and came to the highest point in the whole city from countless pottery works. The horn sounded in Arabic.

"Here it comes again, headache!"

Zhang Feng escaped from the city tower in embarrassment, extremely depressed, but after going downstairs, he was a little bit unwilling, and said childishly: "No, I want to go back and have a look. I haven't seen anything just now."

[Hahaha, anchor, calm down, you won't wait! 】

[I was also taken aback just now, do as the Romans do, the host should take it easy. 】

……

"I was a little excited just now, but the sudden sound behind me was a bit scary. I seemed to see a lot of green things just now, and I don't know what they are." Zhang Feng looked at the street scene that he could see from the platform on the second floor, and from time to time Take some pictures.

[Palm Garden, right?I watched the replay. 】

……

"Oh, I'll take a look later. To be honest, it's rare to see a large expanse of green in the mid-movement area. You also saw a piece of loess on the road. The green is just dotted. Look, how about the girl wearing a headscarf?" Zhang Feng lifted Picked up the camera and took a sneak shot.

In the camera, a local girl wearing a headscarf was carrying a basket, found a shady place and took out a large piece of cloth from the basket, and then took out many accessories, including Allah lamps, knives and other small handicrafts.

The camera made Zhang Feng see it clearly, and murmured: "If it is handmade, it will be really good."

"There's still a little more time in the week, let's go to the museum in the castle first." Looking at the map in his hand, Zhang Feng walked towards the museum in the castle.

Before arriving at the museum, we first visited the various darkrooms, rooms and battlements in the castle. The storage rooms, prayer rooms, dungeons and kitchens still retain their original appearance, showing a strong Arabic style.The fort also has a tower. From the top of the tower, you can see the endless palm gardens, like an ocean.

The ruins outside the castle are traces of historical precipitation

"It's really a palm garden, yes, it doesn't have to be the highest place." Zhang Feng was a little emotional.

After the service was over, Zhang Feng did not go back to the tallest building, but went downstairs to browse the market that he hadn’t visited when he came here just now. Vegetables and fish sellers, meat sellers, the market is very clean, Zhang Feng bought some dates and honey, and a dessert in the market.

"It tastes good."

[Lucky draw, host...]

……

"Don't panic, just go to the little girl you saw just now and buy it. Go last, and then go to the local post office to mail it to you." After Zhang Feng appeased a group of viewers, he walked to a shop selling headscarves and entered.

There are many turbans in the house, and there are many colors. When I watched it by myself, I saw a story written in Chinese, English and Arabic on the wall:
……

More than 1000 years ago, the Arabs designed the first turban in the Middle East, using it to resist the harsh desert climate.Today, the hijab has become a symbol of masculinity, sophistication and nationalism, a stand-in for flags, visors and shields, and a local fashion statement.

When the Arab hijab came out, there were only two kinds of beige and white, but today's hijab is colorful and colorful.Even green and purple turbans are seen from time to time.

The turban is not just a kind of clothing, it also has political and cultural significance.Middle-aged Palestinians wear the headscarf out of status and honor considerations.In summer, in order to resist the hot invasion, they choose white headscarves.When the weather turns cold, they favor darker scarves woven with red or black threads.

Bedouin boys, usually at the age of 15, receive a turban from their father.A 77-year-old Bedouin old man said: "I feel that the headscarf is the best gift in the world. It marks that I have become a real man." It takes it away, and I fight him hard. It's my honor."

……

The story only excerpts a part of it, but it can be seen how important the headscarf is to the people in the Middle East.

The boss can speak some simple English. Zhang Feng communicated with him and bought a white headscarf. The boss also enthusiastically helped Zhang Feng put it on. Zhang Feng wearing the headscarf looked like a prince in the Arab world. Even the owner is not stingy with words of praise.

In the live broadcast room, many viewers also happily teased Zhang Feng. Zhang Feng said goodbye to the shopkeeper in Arabic and continued to stroll in the market.

The most stylish thing is the full pottery shelf. You can see old knives and fire and air guns here. Zhang Feng really wants to buy some bottles, cans, knives, guns and sticks, but they are too big. , it is difficult to bring, after all, he did not go home directly after traveling in Oman.

Occasionally stop to communicate with the stall owners in simple language. The stall owners are very enthusiastic. After all, people who are not ugly are rarely rejected. It’s just that many stall owners speak the local language. Zhang Feng really seems to be listening. If you don't understand, you can only smile and nod.

The culture of the street market is a microcosm of Oman and a corner of the Arab world. Even if you stop and go, even if you are sure you don’t buy anything, Zhang Feng still can’t help but buy some good snacks and small items. .

"This is twenty riyals."

"I only pay five riyals."

"It's too low, at least eighteen riyals."

"six!"

"fourteen!"

"seven!"

……

After a confrontation, Zhang Feng bought a small clay pot for 8 riyals. The pot was only the size of an ordinary orange, but it was dotted with all kinds of different stones. The audience in the live broadcast room was already numb. Harmless, when it came to talking about the price, I didn't give more than half of it.

[I'm so convinced! 】

[It's really scary. I thought that the anchor never bargains when buying things, and often gives tips. Today I have seen it. 】

[It is said that the anchor is really good at bargaining! 】

[I haven't seen the anchor ask someone for more than half the price for the first time. 】

……

"Ahem, cough, cough, people in the Arab world are all businessmen, and they are... cheaters. You must bargain when you come." Zhang Feng looked at the pottery pot in his hand with a smile, and walked towards it without selling anything. The stall of the local girl I just photographed on the tower.
