1840Indian rebirth

After arriving in Liverpool, we found a hotel where everyone could check in and rest.

It took him about a week to fully adapt to riding on the boat, but some people did not fully adapt to it for a month. They were so tortured by this trip that they had to go ashore to rest for a while.

Then Mashao asked Dr. Mayo to be his guide and took him and a few others for a walk around Liverpool.

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

No matter where he went, he would receive strange and unfriendly looks - he suspected that if it weren't for his beast-like physique, someone might have come to trouble him.

"Obviously, that person just said 'savage'." Ma Shao said, referring to a passerby who just passed by.

Sebastian: "Always, these arrogant guys."

Mayo hesitated for a moment: "It is always inevitable to judge people by their appearance... Chief, I suggest you buy a suit, and it is best to adjust your hairstyle and headdress."

"We shouldn't accommodate these British people!" someone said unconvinced.

Ma Shao thought for a while and said: "No... we should adapt, after all, we are here to learn. Mayo is right, we should change our appearance - do as the Romans do."

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

"Come with me, Chief." Dr. Mayo said, and then several people led him to a suit store.

When the shop owner saw them, he couldn't help but frown: "Indians?"

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

He looked polite and like a complete gentleman, which made the shop owner frown a little, but he still said: "I thought they were your slaves."

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

The Apaches were naturally angry, but since the whistle did not go off, they did not say anything.

Ma Shao was not angry.

Only when the strength of the provocateur is similar to that of the person being provoked, the person being provoked will feel resentful and annoyed. If a child provokes an adult, the adult will just laugh it off.

The arrogant British man in front of him was like a child to him, both in terms of muscles, knowledge and vision.

Although the store owner looked down on Ma Shao and others, he did not have a problem with money: "Custom-made or ready-made clothes? Let's choose first. If it is custom-made, I will measure the size for you later."

Ma Shao didn't choose much. He randomly chose a black suit that was quite pleasing to the eye and said, "That's it. Give each of us two suits. I want ready-made clothes."

The popular suits of this era were not yet the most common style in later generations, but they were close.

Compared with the suits of later generations, the main difference between suits at this time is that the coat is longer and is a coat, or a robe.

"Others can wear ready-made clothes, but you are too tall, so you can only make them custom-made." The store owner said.

"Okay." Ma Shao was not surprised, "I bought a few sets of ready-made clothes first. How much do they cost?"

"Seventy shillings per set."

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

Mashao paid the money, then asked the tailor to measure himself, and asked: "How long will it take to complete the customization?"

The store owner said calmly: "If you are alone, a week will be enough. But now you need to queue up, and it may take a month or two."

"A month or two?" Ma Shao frowned.

He may have to leave England in a month or two.

He immediately said: "I'll pay you double the price. Can it be done within three days?"

"This..." The shop owner hesitated.

The horse whistle added: "If you can do it, I will buy at least twenty sets of clothes from you."

Three days later, Ma Shao got his suit as he wished. At the same time, he also purchased more than a hundred suits in several stores, and gave two sets to each of the Apaches who were traveling with him, spending a total of more than three hundred pounds.

.

During this period, he also changed to a new hairstyle - short hair.

In fact, he always had short hair in his previous life, and he wanted to change it to short hair when he was reborn. However, the Indians lacked useful haircut tools. Haircuts required cutting and chopping with a knife or even a stone ax. Cutting short hair was naturally troublesome, so he decided to cut his hair short.

I gradually got used to long hair.

It wasn't until now that he thought about restoring his short hair.

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

No matter how much white people look down on Indians, they have to admit that the horses and whistles in this shape are some of the most handsome.

At least that's what white women think.

"Great Chief, I feel like those women just wanted to eat you." When Ma Shao left the train ticket office, Luanfa couldn't help but say.

"Really?" Ma Shao said casually.

"Absolutely, that look... tsk tsk."

Ma Shao 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 are both students of Mr. Dalton, and Joule is only one year older than me." Dr. Mayo said, "However, his attainments in science are much higher than mine, even though science is just his hobby.

"

"What is his main business?" Ma Shao thought about it for a moment, but could not remember Joule's main business.

"Brewery." Mayo said, "Joule likes science very much, but he must inherit his father's brewery and run it well."

After returning to the hotel where they stayed, the horse whistle summoned the tribesmen.

Fifty people came to the UK with him, almost thirty of them were teenagers between the ages of fourteen and eighteen, who were preparing to study in the UK to study engineering technology, and the remaining twenty were basically soldiers.

"Young men, for the next period of time, you will stay in Liverpool with ten soldiers until I make arrangements for you to study abroad." Mashao said to the tribesmen.

"Of course, during this period, you are not idle. You must not only review your homework, but also take the initiative to contact the British to gain an in-depth understanding of their life and language and prepare for future study abroad."

"...You must remember that the funds for your study abroad are the blood and sweat of the Apache people. Wasting your time is betraying the labor and expectations of the people." He warned at the end.

About thirty teenagers and ten soldiers were left in Liverpool, and the horse whistle took the remaining ten people to the train station and boarded the train to Manchester.

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

This is the first person the horse whistle wants to visit.
