In the middle of the dog days, the sun is scorching the earth so hot that it makes people feel breathless.
Wuhan, known as the Iron Furnace, the weather in July is a little hotter than other cities. Looking at the people walking in a hurry on the street, you know they don’t want to follow the sun. Make more interviews.
The usually lively neighborhood now feels deserted, and the square dancing ladies have also postponed their time to go out. Except for people who work early in the morning and late at night, there are almost no people willing to come out and show off. Those who do business in small shops have a facade. They sit in the shop and turn on the air conditioner and enjoy themselves leisurely. Those who go out have cars, turn on the air conditioner and play music and sing loudly all the way. The car is speeding so fast that it can't take away any heat.
But life is not easy, and there are always people carrying heavy burdens. The silence in the community was broken by knocks, and the irritable emotions were suppressed and were about to be released. This person seems to be going against the will of heaven, refusing to accept summer, and challenging the temperature!
The sound of knocking Luo continued one after another, the sound was clear and resounding without any hesitation, as if it hit the heart directly. People can't help but see what's going on.
How much does one cost? What to sell?
I saw a group of people surrounding an old man in the alley downstairs. The old man was about forty or fifty years old. His simple face was covered with sweat. He was holding a Luo in his left hand and tapping with his right hand. He carried a load on his shoulder and a small basket on the front and back of the load. The old man took off the load and took out the lid of the front basket. Inside were inch-by-inch pancakes, still steaming!
My home-made handmade cakes, one piece at a time! The old man was smiling broadly, and his simple facial expression looked particularly cute.
"I'll take two! I'll take three,"
"It's very cheap, and it's also covered in meat!"
There are a lot of people buying pancakes , the old man was a little overwhelmed, and big beads of sweat hung on his forehead. He habitually wiped it with the towel draped over his shoulders, and then continued the magic-like movement of filling the cakes with his hands.
"It's not bad, it's delicious," a young girl said to her boyfriend.
"It's delicious. I'll buy it next time. He comes here often."
Watching the people buying cakes leaving one after another, the old man counted the money, and he smiled, very honestly.
Seeing the old man about to leave, I walked up the stairs like an arrow. Came down.
How much does it cost for two cakes?
Cheap, two dollars!
The old man acted quickly and showed enthusiasm. After the cake was ready, he handed it to me with both hands. What impressed me the most was his eyes that always smiled like moonlight. I have to admit, this smile warms people's hearts.
I took the cake and handed over the money. The old man said thank you, picked up the load and was about to leave again.
Uncle, why don't you shout? Will there be more business? What to do? I interrupted his progress.
Hehe, this is a community, and there are many people working the night shift. What should I do if I wake them up? It’s not easy! I just have Luo Knock. If someone hears it, he will buy it. If he doesn’t hear it, forget it!
I didn’t expect that the old man was a man who sacrificed himself for others. I took the cake and left, and after walking a few steps, he knocked on the door. I felt very uncomfortable. The only thing I could do was to wish him silently: business is prosperous.
Although I never met him again. I don’t know if the old man’s business is in a recession right now, but he is definitely a respectable businessman in my eyes, because he has put in the sweat, and his gains are the result of hard work. He doesn’t. He is able to influence others for his own benefit. His quality is so valuable.
On the other hand, think about today's businessmen who are so power-minded that they use shameless deeds and dirty transactions to gain their profits.
Rights and interests. In the end, he can transform into a successful person in society and a business elite. This is so shameless and ironic.
The world is beautiful after all. If everyone could be like the old man, then the world would have fewer conflicts and more peace.
