The dialogue clearly reflects the Hainanese style. The descriptions of food depict Hainan life very directly. In 1983, the average wage was around twenty yuan, so purchasing power was quite strong; selling dozens of kilograms of fish was a bit excessive. Looking forward to the next installment!
The Li people refer to the Han Chinese as "Mei," meaning "guest." They consider the Han people as guests, while identifying themselves as scholars. This term reflects the Li people's friendliness and respect for outsiders, while also highlighting their sense of identity and pride in their native land.
It has a strong local flavor and a rich sense of daily life. The lifestyles of ethnic minorities are also refreshing.
