DAY 33 - CHEONGSAM SHOPPING IN HAN ZHENG STREET

Day 33 in Wuhan

The cheongsam selling shop that we spotted in Han Zheng Street and spend almost our whole day there. This families are travelling from Hang Zhou to here and started their cheongsam selling business in Wuhan. Their cheongsam are all from hang zhou and some of them are form factory while some of them are customized made.


This is xiao lin who is wearing the cheongsam, threee of us tried our cheongsam in fitting room~and the effects/outcomes of wearing cheongsam..... are super nice.


Cheongsam 旗袍, is a very tradisional chinese wearing dresses, it is usually to wear in special occasion like grand dinner or during chinese new year. When i am at home my mummy ask me to get a cheongsam at wuhan but i refuse to, out of expectaction i got a cheongsam! I think i'll never wear it infront of people too~ haha.. Cheongsam has very fit cutting, and you will never know how nice a girl wearing a cheongsam until you see her by your real eyes... When i came out from fitting room, everybody was "woW~", and i really really never expect i'll be looking nice in cheongsam. It shows your figures well and that elagance cheongsam will make a women even women. NO wonder in past time, the chinese women used to wear cheongsam and love these pretty dress.

Girls must get a nice cheongsam once in their lifetime, you won't regret on it, and the effects on wearing cheongsam on you will make you a totally different looking girl

THis is me who is looking outside towards you..




Today is a raining day, xiao lin, me, after KTV singing and together with Vivian we went to the famous han zheng street. However, due to the bad and cool and wet weather, we didn’t really shopping that much in hanzheng street. The weather is around 10’c!! Oh my!! The sunny days we had in past few days seems went off and recently we were walking in the rain, and slept under thick thick blanket. We need to take 1 hour bus ride by the bus 702, go across the bridge of Yangtze river to Hankou city, and friendly ask the driver to inform us where is han zheng haha~ Actually most of our OIP peers been to hanzheng street! But I was just no spare time to go there! I really wondered what I was doing while in the past few days! ahahha~ hanging out with local friends too much~


Due to heavy rain, we never have our shopping much in the ‘real han zheng street’. It was there like a cheap selling clothing street, with many small and compact shops, selling on super cheap pricing blouse/dress from 20 yuan to 60 yuan. That place is a heaven of training your bargaining skill, don’t ever believe the lady boss if they said they have all fixed price and can’t bargain. However, some local people name the product as low quality product and some clothes will be good in looking but not really suitable on wearing. ahha~ Xin hui the friend from LSCT she bought a lot super cheap blouse at that place~ haahha~



Han zheng is too big in area and size and Zhu Da ge, a local cow leather the customize boots selling boss told me that we, unfamiliar the han zheng, very hard to get to that centre place selling on many cheap, wholesale, and good quality products, most of the businessman around China get their products from Han Zheng!! Han zheng is really a big place!!Super super big place for China clothing wholeselling and others small business boss! Must choose the right clothes in bargain in proper price, 一分钱一分货吧,you paid for what you deserve to receive! I will suggest skinny girls have their clothes there~



We went in a Bai Ma super big and cheap selling shopping molls, because the heavy raining spoilt my shopping moods la~ CEH~ Xiao lin is extraordinary good in bargaining, and she manage to bargain a 180 yuan of long dress for me till 50 yuan, oh my, you are great arh!! We have been acting here and there, and best way of bargain is to cut the priced half while you first bargain, talking very determinedly, talk politely, then walk away, act to walk away then the lady boos will chase out and give you the appropriate price, hahah~


Super fun in the art of bargaining~

Nice teamwork with xiao lin and get the price we wanna~ ahahh~ FUnn~

NO matter how, Mr.wong teach us don’t bargain too hard until the lady boss suffer from losses, “ We are not shorten on that 20 bucks, but they need 20 bucks for earning livings”, sometimes if the bosses get to earn slightly higher from you/you willing to give off good price to them, the local business people will be happy till the whole day, I earn slightly more 10 bucks today! I think someday and somewhere we can actually bringing happiness to people by doing some little insignificant things. If that lady boss/boss is sincere and worth of giving off her a better price, why not let her earn some little more for her day?



I remember I read an email a few months ago, that mister is thinking of how to make the people surrounding him happy, he bring happiness to the people around him; he chat with the fruits hawkers, he talk to small business people, and don’t take advantages on people, he buy vegetables and fruits from small vendors and never take back the small change/remaining coins. “oh, no, you can just keep the remaining, your carrots are fresh sweet and worth it!” he said this, the small vendors are so surprise of having this customer, shake head and said no, no, he must give back him the remaining money, or will you just take more 2 tomatoes? Come, come, and take more 2 tomatoes from me, why you are not taking back your coins? People are calculating on how many coins that the vendors lack of giving them, taking advantage on putting more carrots in their pockets, but you delights me by your good attitude! That mister continues doing this to vegetable vendors, fruits vendors, socks selling vendor, but what he has gained back? He gets back home with more garlic, more carrots and more tiny little needles. What else he has gained back? He gained more on friendships, trustworthy, and passionate when the next time he go to stall and buy. This is how 10 bucks make a different for you, are you money minded? Are thinking of that is that 10 bucks bringing that mister with love and friendships? haha, that’s depend on how wide and deep thinking that you can have, how wide is your generosity and how is your way on handling with people in love. How big is your heart?



Me and the family of the cheongsam selling shop


Today I did learn something, learn to be humble and generous, learn to bring happy to the people surrounding you, and this will make your day brighter
