The old man is from Anhui, to say the least, he is still a celebrity in the waste industry. In fact, in my original residence in the river head road area, the tenants also most of the scrap gathered, once he came, all the stored scrap out, more or less sold to him, generally more, because encountered other scrap collectors, they also refused to sell. So, the Anhui old man's tricycle is always full, sometimes a day a car is not enough, thin body riding a full tricycle, slowly riding, and with the residents are familiar with the voice shouted: "collection of waste cardboard boxes, waste newspaper collection le ......,". Reminds me of the movie "wrong car" in the "wine dry if sold without ......".
In sometimes take a tricycle, from chatting with the driver is anhui people, I often say, you anhui people have an old man collect scrap, business is good, they actually know most of them, although they are anhui people, but in fenghua anhui people are more, it seems, this anhui old man is not ordinary.
With his contact for several years, recall some details, found that he and our general impression of the so-called field workers or different.
Most of the waste is waste newspapers, waste cardboard boxes, empty cans, empty mineral water bottles, etc., the first two are charged by weight, he will waste newspapers and waste cardboard boxes clearly, because the price of the two is not the same, in the weighing of the time, he will put the scale down a little bit, so that the seller gets a little bit of benefit, although not much, but reflects his sincerity, and, at the same time, if after the calculation of the total price of 59.5 yuan, he will give you a half of the price, and then the price of the total price of 59.5 yuan. At the same time, if the total price is 59.5 yuan after counting, he will give you 60 yuan, don't make change. Counting empty cans is the same, regardless of whether you are in or out, he certainly will not be a few, so many residents as long as the waste products in his car, after a while to get the money can be. In a word, he speaks honestly as a businessman. I have asked about him, is it because of the relatively good conditions of the residents around the River Head Road, so more waste, he said not, because business is the same to do, as long as the integrity of doing business, the same everywhere. I admire his realm. At the same time, in the subsequent interaction, also repeatedly experienced his trustworthiness.
Once, with his appointment, 4:00 p.m. in front of the Sunshine Five, etc., to the home to collect scrap, 3:00 p.m. began to rain, I think he should not come to the 4:00 or so, from the window to look out, vaguely see a skinny figure, hiding in the road under the eaves, next to the three-wheeled vehicle, covered with a layer of nylon cloth, waiting in the rain; and once. Also said that 4:00 pm waiting, due to guests at home, forget this, when 4:30 to send a friend to take the car only to find that he is still waiting there, the heart of guilt, really too much, I know that he stayed there for almost an hour, and hastened to apologize, he said it's okay.
Gradually, we are familiar with more, because often let him come to the school office to collect scrap, he knows that I am a teacher, so on the road to meet me, far from jumping off the tricycle, very politely to me to greet: off work, have eaten, etc. And I also think of him as a teacher, and I think of him as a teacher, and I think of him as a teacher, and I think of him as a teacher, and I think of him as a teacher. And I also took him as an old friend as a return gift: business today and good, New Year's home, etc..
As the saying goes: three hundred and sixty lines of work, as an old man of sixty or so, he used a thin body, honest character, in the collection of waste industry has made a good income, and many younger than him is pulling an empty car white busy, but also once again verified the jargon. Once by cab also talked to the driver, said the same four wheels turn a day, some people a month seven, eight thousand, while some people a month is only three, four thousand, in fact, diligence, know-how, and occupational character, have a relationship, for example, know-how, two sets of guests at the entrance of the Grand Hotel, from the dress, baggage, look and so on can be judged by a long way or close to the place, go to Ningbo or go to the train station, combined with the time period, to make a Reasonable choice; Speaking of morality, from Jiangkou to bring guests will be Fenghua, in the GPS to grab a guest to go to Xinchang, will go to Fenghua guests thrown away halfway, so doing business, surely can not be achieved, that driver also have the same feeling.
At the same time, the world's vision is often divided into three, six, nine, etc., from the status, wealth, and other external places to look at others, now it seems that a person as long as it is sincere to treat people, do things with all their heart, in the less peaceful social life, silent survival, he may not have a noble place, but he should be ordinary in the ordinary people. By this old man collecting scrap, I also thought of the side has been or will soon be retired old teachers, as well as the memory of the street to sell vegetable seeds, vegetable seedlings of the old grandparents, grandma and so on.
Life is a road, in fact, from birth, on this road. At a young age, we do not realize this, and when we realize it, we have to think about the question: where does this road lead to? In fact, the end result is the same, regardless of whether one is poor or rich. Therefore, there is no need to rack your brain for the results, to is the process, great wealth is a way, great fame is also many people aspire to, but can live well by their own ability, do what they like, frank and open to live a life, should also be respected by others.
