After visiting the Elshoot Windmill Village, the members of the Golden Autumn Group followed the guide to take the bus and then headed to the second attraction of the day - Sandham Folk Village.

Sandham Folk Village is located less than twenty kilometers from the village of Elschoot.

After almost a bag of cigarettes, the minibus drove into the parking lot in front of Sandham Folk Village.

After getting off the bus, the members of the Golden Autumn Group followed the tour guide Xiao Luo and happily marched south along a graceful, clean and tidy country road, and entered the elegant, quiet and beautiful Sandam Village after a while.

When you come to the entrance of the village, you can see the old buildings of the 16th and 17th centuries.

After entering the village, the members of the Golden Autumn Group found that all the houses and small bridges in Sandham Village were all made of wood, completely retaining the wooden structure and style of the early stage of industrialization.

And, on the outskirts of Sandham Village, visitors can also see that there is also a similar view to the village of Ellshout:

Every three or five hundred meters, there are one or two ancient windmill towers.

Following the tour guide Xiao Luo, the members of the Golden Autumn Group entered a bungalow built with thick wooden piles.

The interior of this bungalow is furnished like a special supermarket:

In front of the four wooden walls of the bungalow, there are one-meter-high display counters.

On the countertop, there are items that visitors can't think of!

What goods?

It turned out that there were all kinds of shoes on the counter!

These shoes are brightly colored, chic, and small, cute.

When the members of the "Golden Autumn Group" stepped into the bungalow, there was a tall Dutch girl with blond hair and blue eyes by the door, who immediately greeted the tour group and said enthusiastically in Chinese:

"Welcome! Welcome from China! ”

The Chinese spoken by the girl has a strong European accent, and at the same time, it seems a little stiff and incoherent.

However, in the Netherlands, thousands of kilometers away from Chinese mainland, the members of the Golden Autumn Group still felt extremely cordial and happy to hear a foreign girl speaking Chinese at close range.

"Hello, beautiful Amsterdam girl."

In the Golden Autumn Group, it was still Mr. Liu, a big man from Shandong, who also learned the Chinese tone of the welcome lady and said hello to the Dutch girl.

Because the "European-style Chinese" he learned was not authentic, it immediately caused the members of the Golden Autumn Troupe to laugh "haha".

Laughter together, the atmosphere in the stake bungalow is also warm and harmonious.

"You—Good! Hello, friends! ”

Although the welcoming girl may not fully understand the greetings of Mr. Liu, a big man in Shandong, she still greeted the guests of the Golden Autumn Regiment with a sunny and smiling face, and led the members of the Golden Autumn Regiment to a counter on the right side of the entrance, pointing to the craftsmen who were working at the counter and said:

"Ladies and gentlemen, friends, here, it's us, on-site shoemaking, workshop, friends, visit, guide!"

The members of the Golden Autumn Troupe followed the girl's hand and looked into the counter, only to see that inside the counter, three Dutch craftsmen were concentrating on making shoes.

Two craftsmen are using traditional hand-made rough wooden shoes, while another craftsman is using a fast-rotating machine to fine-process rough wooden shoes.

Due to his skill, under the processing of the craftsman in the back, a beautiful wooden shoe was completed in a short time.

The craftsman then picked up another wooden shoe and continued to work on it.

"Hello, everyone!"

The beautiful Dutch girl, seeing that the members of the Golden Autumn Troupe were all interested in visiting the wooden shoe processing technology at the counter, began to use a slightly stiff Chinese dialect to introduce to the surrounding guests of the Golden Autumn Troupe:

"We, here, the Netherlands, the only and unique, wooden shoe manufacturing and processing place. They, two, were used, dried, wood, handmade, made, shoe blanks, and then paid by this one, the teacher, and polished. This is、Holland peculiar、Wooden shoes。 If you are interested, you can go there and shop. ”

After the Dutch girl finished speaking, she naturally led the guests of the Golden Autumn Group out of the processing counter and came to a long counter directly opposite the entrance of the stake bungalow.

On the countertop of this counter, countless pairs of wooden shoes are neatly arranged.

The members of the Golden Autumn Troupe took a closer look and found that these wooden shoes placed on the counter were of different sizes and shapes. Moreover, the wooden shoes are also printed with various fancy patterns and painted with various colors.

It's really dazzling, and it's beautiful!

After arriving at the finished wooden shoe counter, the Dutch girl skillfully recommended to the customer:

"We, the Dutch, wooden shoes, from a distance, like cotton shoes; When you look closely, it looks like plastic and shoes, but when you get it in your hands, you know that they are wooden shoes. ”

"Good, dear beauty! Your advertising slogan is really good! ”

After listening to the recommendation of the Dutch girl, Mr. Liu, a big man in Shandong, immediately applauded the Dutch girl.

As a result, all the members of the Golden Autumn League also applauded with Mr. Liu.

"Thank you, thank you!"

To the applause of the guests, the beautiful Dutch girl laughed.

Her sunny face overflowed with brilliance at the same time.

The Dutch girl nodded her head to the guests and expressed her heartfelt gratitude.

After the applause had subsided, she continued:

"If you want, you can bring a few pairs and go back to China. When you go back, you can, send your family, send your friends! This、By no means、Give small shoes! ”

"Oh, dear Dutch beauty, you are not simple! Do you know the Chinese proverb - give people small shoes? Excuse me, you said this is not a gift of shoes, but what is it a gift? ”

After listening to the joke of the Dutch girl, Mr. Liu, a big man in Shandong, couldn't help but laugh and joke with her.

"You say, "It's a gift, what?"

The Dutch girl probably only understood Mr. Liu's words, so she replied with Mr. Liu's words:

"Yes, it is delivered, Dutch, wooden shoes!"

"Well, that's right! Add 20 points! ”

Mr. Liu, a big man in Shandong, continued to amuse the beautiful Dutch girl, and suddenly asked:

"May I ask the beauty, are there any discounts for us to buy wooden shoes today?"

The Dutch girl didn't understand Mr. Liu's question this time.

I saw her open her green eyes with long eyelashes, looking at Mr. Liu apologetically, waving her hands outward, and shrugging her shoulders at the same time.

"Hello!"

The tour guide Xiao Luo saw the embarrassment of the Dutch girl, so he said a few words to her in French.

When the Dutch girl heard this, she laughed "hee-hee".

Her laughter was crisp and catchy.

I heard her also say a few words to the tour guide Xiao Luo in French.

As she spoke, the Dutch girl pointed to the price tag on the counter of the finished shoes, as if to emphasize something.

After listening to the Dutch girl, the tour guide Xiao Luo turned to Mr. Liu, a big man in Shandong, and the members of the Golden Autumn Troupe and said:

"This beautiful woman asked me to tell you that the wooden shoes here are unique specialties in the world. The price of wooden shoes is actually not expensive, only about 30 euros for a pair. This is already very preferential for countries with abnormally high labor costs. The beauty also said that everyone is very welcome to buy and give it to relatives and friends after returning home! ”

"Well, that's right!"

Mr. Liu, a big man in Shandong, nodded in approval, lowered his head and did a little mental calculation, and then said:

"If calculated at the current exchange rate, one euro is exchanged for 8.2 yuan, and 30 euros is only 240 yuan. Not to mention buying wooden shoes in the Netherlands, at present, we need at least three or four hundred to buy a pair of leather shoes in China! Well, well, just to the enthusiasm of this beautiful Amsterdam beauty, I'll buy three pairs! ”

After Mr. Liu finished speaking, he took the lead in picking out wooden shoes on the counter.

"Okay, I'll buy three pairs too!"

"I'll buy two pairs!"

Among the members of the Golden Autumn Group, several companions followed Mr. Liu to buy wooden shoes together.

The most interesting thing is that the wooden shoes sold here are similar to the slippers we usually wear, only marked with the letters "large, medium, small", and there is no shoe size differentiation.

If you need to wear size 40 or size 39 or size 41 shoes, then here you can just buy a pair of large wooden shoes.

If you're wearing size 43, 44 or 45 shoes, you'll have to buy a king-size shoe.

Soon, the members of the Golden Autumn Regiment chose the wooden shoes they needed in front of the counter.

Liping also chose four pairs of wooden shoes of different sizes after consulting Mengdu.

According to Liping's plan, she is going to send a pair to Mengdu's parents and her own parents after returning to China.

After buying wooden shoes, the members of the Golden Autumn Group took out their cameras and mobile phones and took various shots of the craftsmen making shoes, tourists shopping, and the varieties of wooden shoes displayed on the counter in the wooden stake bungalow.

After the photo shooting, the visit to the folk village was also successfully completed.
