This handicraft shop located at Gaoshengqiao, Chengdu is called “Blue
Sheep”. As extraordinary as the shop’s name, every handicraft sold in the
shop is made by minorities in poor mountainous areas and people with
disabilities. The 75-year-old Rachel Grace Pinniger from England is the
boss here. She, who came to Chengdu in 2008, still has an unaccomplished
wish until now. Rachel says: “It’s very difficult to sell it. So just without
really thinking, I said while I am in Chengdu, I will try and help you to sell
it. My purpose is to try and find the gaps, where people have a need that’s
not perhaps been met. And if we can try to fill that and help them, then I will keep going.” July 21, 2017, early this morning, Rachel and workers of the shop start
off to Deyang of Mianzhu City, which is over 90 km away from Chengdu.
Driving to purchase products personally like this has long been a part of
the life for Rachel. She says: “The longest drive but I wasn’t driving, was
when we had hovercraft expedition to the source of the Yangtze River. And
we went from Chengdu up to Yushu, and then. Yeah, actually I drove back.
Quite a lot of long distance driving, which I enjoy.”
