173 Hop on the train to Manchester

Arriving in Liverpool, the whistle is to find a hotel for everyone to stay and rest.

It took him about a week to get used to the boat, but there were some people who didn't get used to it for a month, and they had to be allowed to go ashore and rest for a while.

The Whistle then asked Dr. Mayo to act as a guide and took him and a few others for a short walk around Liverpool.

As he expected, the British did not welcome the Indians, although from time to time the British accused the United States with Indian topics.

Everywhere he went, he was greeted with strange and unfriendly stares—he suspected that if it weren't for his beastly physique, someone might have been looking for his trouble.

"Obviously, the man just said 'Savage.'" Ma Whistle said, referring to a passer-by who had just passed.

Sebastian: "Always, these arrogant guys. ”

Mayo hesitated: "It's always inevitable to judge people by their appearance...... Great Chief, I suggest you go and buy a suit, and it is better to adjust your hairstyle and headgear a little more. ”

"We shouldn't be accommodating to these Britons!" Someone said unconvinced.

Ma Whistle thought for a moment but said, "No...... We should be accommodating, after all, we are here to learn. Mayo was right when he said that we should change our look – and do as the locals do. ”

"Mayo, do you know of any good suit shops in Liverpool?"

"Come with me, Grand Chief." Dr. Mayo said, and then he led the group to a suit shop.

When the shopkeeper saw them, he couldn't help frowning: "Indians? ”

Mayo stepped forward: "Sir, they are my friends and need some suits." ”

He looked polite, like a gentleman, which made the shopkeeper's brow stretch a little, but he said, "I thought they were your slaves." ”

"......" Mayo was silent for a while.

The Apache were naturally furious, but since the horse whistle did not attack, they did not say anything.

The horse whistle is not angry.

Only when the provocateur is about as strong as the provocateur will the provocateur feel resentment and annoyance, and if a child provokes an adult, the adult will only laugh it off.

The arrogant Englishman in front of him was like a child to him, both in muscle, in knowledge and vision.

Although the shopkeeper looked down on Ma Whistle and others, he didn't have trouble with money: "Custom-made or ready-to-wear?" Let's pick it first, if it's custom-made, I'll measure it for you later. ”

Ma Whistle didn't pick much, so he chose a black suit that was quite pleasing to the eye, and said, "That's it, let's give each of us two sets." I want ready-to-wear. ”

The suit that was popular in this era was not yet the most common style in later generations, but it was close.

Compared with the suits of later generations, the main difference of the suit at this time was that the coat was longer and belonged to the coat, or robe called.

"Other people can wear ready-to-wear, but you're too tall to make it to order." The shopkeeper said.

"Okay." Ma Whistle was not surprised, "I bought a few sets of ready-to-wear first, how much does it cost?" ”

"Seventy shillings each."

Seventy shillings is three pounds and ten shillings. One pound is equal to twenty shillings, and one shilling is equal to twelve pence.

Ma Whistle paid the money and asked the tailor to measure himself while asking, "How long will it take for the order to be made?" ”

The shopkeeper said lightly: "If it's just you, a week will be fine." But now you need to wait in line, maybe a month or two. ”

"A month or two?" Ma Whistle frowned.

He might be out of England in a month or two.

He immediately said, "I pay you double the price, can you do it in three days?" ”

"This ......" the shopkeeper froze.

"If you can do it, I'll buy at least twenty more clothes from you." ”

Three days later, Ma Sentry got his suit, and at the same time bought a total of more than a hundred suits in several shops, and issued two sets to each of the Apaches who accompanied him, for a total of more than three hundred pounds.

During this time, he also got a new hairstyle - short hair.

In fact, he had always had short hair in his previous life, and he also wanted to change it to short hair at the beginning of his rebirth, but the Indians lacked good barber tools, and the haircut was to cut it with a knife or even a stone axe, chop it, and it was naturally troublesome to cut short hair, so he slowly got used to long hair.

Only now did he remember to give his short hair a restoration.

Simple short hair, a black coat suit, and of course, more importantly - a handsome face and a tall figure, if you wear sunglasses, Ma Whistle may look similar to Neo in the movie "The Matrix".

Even if the whites no longer look down on the Indians, they have to admit that there are a number of horsemen in this shape.

At least that's what white women think.

"Great Chief, I feel like those women just now want to eat you." When the horse whistle left the train ticket office, Randy couldn't help but say something.

"Really?" Ma Whistle said casually.

"Absolutely, that look...... Gee. ”

Ma Shen didn't say anything, looked at the train ticket in his hand, and then asked, "Mayo, you know Joule's address, right?" ”

"Of course, we were both students of Mr. Dalton, and Joule was only a year older than me." "However, he is much more accomplished in science than I am, even though science is just his hobby." ”

"What is his main business?" Ma Whistle thought about it for a moment, but didn't remember Joule's main business.

"Brewery." "Joule loved science, but his father had to inherit his father's brewery and run it," Mayo said. ”

After returning to the hotel where he was staying, Ma Sentry gathered his people.

He had come with fifty men, of whom almost thirty were teenagers between the ages of fourteen and eighteen, all of whom were preparing to study engineering in England, and the remaining twenty were mostly soldiers.

"Boys, for the next period of time, you will stay in Liverpool with ten soldiers until I arrange for you to study abroad." The horse whistle said to the people.

"Of course, you have not been idle during this time. You should not only revise your homework, but also take the initiative to contact the British people to learn more about their life and language, so as to prepare for your future study abroad. ”

“…… You must remember that the funds for your study abroad are the blood and sweat of the Apache people, and to waste your time is to live up to the labor and expectations of your people. At last he admonished.

Leaving about thirty teenagers and ten soldiers in Liverpool, Ma Sentinel took the remaining ten men to the train station and boarded the train to Manchester.

In Manchester, there is a brewery owner named James Prescott Joule.

This is the first person Ma Sentry is going to visit.
