Navy blue
14 May 2011
Everyone in the bazaar is talking about the directive: from the new school year all children in Talas and Nurzhan wear navy blue uniforms with a white shirt. All. Ten thousand, twenty thousand, maybe a hundred thousand children.
The Soviet uniform factory died in 1996. The old tailors in Talas make maybe 200 sets a month. Every mother will want a set for a good price in August.
Mairam asked me: do you think this is a good business? I said: I think I bought my ticket yesterday.

You could have told me and I would buy 100 shirts with you.
You had no ticket yesterday. I have 100 shirts for you today.
