The city is full of routines. I'm going back to the countryside.

In the autumn of September, I took my 80-year-old mother to visit Fujian.

Because of my friends, I signed up for a low-priced group and changed my name to a shopping group. My friend's friend is the team leader. She told us that there are four shopping shops on this trip, but shopping is not compulsory, so you can do whatever you want.

I went to Guizhou with such a group last year. Generally speaking, I feel that eating, living and traveling are all good, and the tour guide didn't say much. Except for the accident on the last day (which will be introduced later), the trip was quite satisfactory.

Because of last year's experience, our trip was purely for fun.

Because of this, we suffered great mental pressure during the trip this time. We also know that tour guides don't get paid, but shop on the tourists' commission. Therefore, every time they go to a tourist attraction, they are just browsing and dealing with errands. When I arrived at the shopping store, I was refreshed immediately, and the time could still be delayed.

There are four shopping spots in the tour, but there are actually five.

The first one is not in the itinerary, but it does exist. He is a tour guide of Hua 'an Tulou, selling all kinds of tea and cigarettes in his house. It is said that in order to take care of the local people, Huaan specially changed the visiting team to a local tour guide.

The tour guide and her husband made tea for us 10 minutes and sold it for more than 1000 yuan. The income should be high, because we didn't know until we came out that the things in her house were two or even three times more expensive than those outside.

The second is the latex mattress point. The tour guide said that Xiamen Free Trade Zone has attracted investment from Thailand. We don't know whether these words are true or not, and whether the product quality is good or bad. All we know is that the waiter has been making noise in his ear, no matter how annoying he is, he has to listen.

Unfortunately, despite the hard work of the interpreters and waiters, our league members don't eat hard or hard, and they don't eat oil and salt. They successfully drew a zero egg for the tour guide's performance list here.

When I came out, I saw that the guide's face was so cloudy that I could wring water. When I opened my mouth in the car, there was a strong smell of gunpowder.

The third one is Red Coral Jewelry Store. This is the most painful point of my trip. I stood for two hours, not only standing, but also always on guard against the sneak attack of the tour guide. We successfully used the means of reconnaissance and anti-reconnaissance, fought bravely with the tour guide, and finally walked out of the shopping store empty-handed, just like in the second store.

Fortunately, two members of the tour group went shopping, and the tour guide's face was slightly better.

The fourth shopping store sells kitchen utensils, and the brand is called "Beard King". There are kitchen knives, woks, chopping boards and so on. According to the lecturer's explanation, both the knife and the pot are made of 3 16 stainless steel, so the knife won't rust and the pot has no oil smoke. A demonstration was made on the spot.

At first, a wok cost 2998 yuan. Later, after being brainwashed, those who succeeded in taking the bait immediately became emotional. However, these people still maintain the last trace of sobriety. They began to bargain seriously and successfully cut it into 50% discount, asking the seller to give something.

Our tour group bought about ten sets in this shopping store. It was these ten sets of kitchen utensils that finally made the tour guide's face smile and our mood relaxed a lot.

The fifth shop sells silk quilts. After half an hour's eloquent explanation by the lecturer, many league members were persuaded again, and it was another shopping frenzy. After bargaining, we successfully bought more than ten sets at a 50% discount, even our team leader bought one set.

My friend and I have been named by the tour guide many times, demanding that we must make moves. We stubbornly resist, cope with constant changes, resist pressure and protect the RMB in our pockets.

The last stop is the jewelry store.

In fact, the shopping store in front may make people believe that their shopping style is straightforward and there is nothing fishy. But this family is different. They dug a lot of holes, and they would fall in if they were not careful. I fell into it once in Guizhou last year and was saved by others.

As for what kind of pit, we'll talk about it tomorrow.
