Chapter 104 The significance of the green train!
They take this train specifically to go to the county to sell vegetables. This train has been running for more than 20 years, and the train conductor can call most people's names.
Not to mention being good friends, they are old acquaintances who see each other every day.
This train has another nickname, it’s called the Fortune Train!
"these are..."
"They are vegetable and fruit growers from nearby villages, and this train is for them."
Although China developed very quickly, it accomplished in just a few decades what other countries would take hundreds of years to accomplish.
But such rapid development will inevitably bring some negative effects.
In addition, China is too large, its population is too large, and the overall situation is very complicated, which will inevitably lead to the problem of unbalanced development.
Some people were left behind, but Huaxia did not give up on them. Instead, they provided help as much as possible.
That's why the green train exists.
If we only consider economic development, we can completely cancel the green-skinned trains.
Anyway, we have been losing money and cannot bring any economic benefits.
Wouldn’t it be nice to use the money to build high-speed railways?
Tickets can be sold for hundreds or thousands of dollars easily!
But if it is really cancelled, what will happen to these fruit and vegetable farmers?
Just five dollars is just the money for a breakfast for most city children.
In some developed cities, you can't even buy half a cup of soy milk.
But for them, it may be a day's or even a week's food expenses.
Why should the country vigorously develop public infrastructure?
The goal is to make the ticket affordable for everyone, just a few dollars.
With this green train, they can support their family with their own hands.
Therefore, public welfare slow trains like this will never be cancelled.
China needs both speed and warmth!
Anna relayed Chen Lu's words, and the audience fell silent for a moment.
[Yes, for them, even five dollars would be something they would have to think about, not to mention a ticket worth several hundred dollars!]
[It turns out that China has a special purpose in preserving green trains. ]
[I came from the mountains. At least I am really grateful. The country has done so much to help people get out of poverty! ]
[To be honest, compared with the Eagle Sauce, I don’t think we have the right to smear China! ]
【At least they really did something. What about us? We use laws to turn poor people into criminals and criminals into slaves! 】
When an old man stood up, several apples rolled down.
Anna ran over quickly and picked up the apple.
"For you, uncle."
"Thank you, baby. This apple is for you."
Anna quickly waved her hand to refuse.
She just listened to what Chen Lu said and realized how difficult life is for these fruit farmers.
How could I bear to ask for his apple again?
The two got in the car and found a seat.
Chen Lu felt a little emotional. The green train is truly the memory of a generation of Chinese people.
Slow, crowded, and noisy seem to be the impression that most Chinese people have of him.
But it is indispensable for daily travel.
Green trains are often associated with the Spring Festival travel rush, carrying the memories of a generation.
With the development of the times, green trains will eventually be eliminated.
But now, it still provides convenience for a large group of people.
[The interior facilities of the green train are indeed a bit poor. ]
[It’s not that bad, right? It feels better than most of the trains in India. ]
[That’s right. Last time I went to India to take a train, I was almost scared to death. They didn’t sell standing tickets, but hanging tickets! ]
[That speed is not even as fast as my walking speed! ]
[The ticket is only five yuan, why do you need a bicycle? ]
In one carriage, half of the people were going to the county town to sell vegetables and fruits.
The tanned faces are full of wrinkles, and at first glance they are farmers who work hard in the fields. The rapid development of China is inseparable from the hard work of these people.
Food is the most important thing for people. Only when they ensure food for everyone can we devote ourselves to production and construction.
In addition to people, there was actually a duck, quacking.
Chen Lu felt a little stuffy, so he opened the car window.
Feeling the gentle breeze and listening to the chirping of insects and birds outside the window is a unique experience.
The person sitting opposite happened to be that uncle.
When he saw it was Anna, he immediately took out two apples and handed them to her.
"Baby, take it and eat it."
"I can't have it!"
But the uncle was too enthusiastic and kept pushing it into her hands.
Anna looked at Chen Lu for help.
"Just take it if uncle gives it to you."
Only then did Anna take them, one for each of her and Chen Lu.
He wiped it with his sleeve and took a big bite.
The sweet juice penetrates into my heart, so sweet!
"Uncle, these apples are delicious. How much are they? I want to buy two kilograms."
"okay!"
He took out a scale and weighed some apples, and the top of the scale was high.
"Two catties, one ounce. That's two catties. Give me four dollars."
Chen Lu handed over four yuan in cash and took the plastic bag.
Beads of sweat kept rolling down the uncle's forehead, but he always had a smile on his face.
For him, these four dollars might be the food expenses for his family for several days.
He could also use the money to go to the county town and buy some candies for his grandson.
When I go home and see my children happy, I feel happy just thinking about it!
[Ward? Apples are two dollars a pound? I went to the supermarket yesterday and bought apples for five dollars each!]
[Isn’t this too cheap? The effort and reward are not proportional! ]
[I went there to buy some apples, and then came back to Eagle Sauce to buy more. Am I making a profit? ]
【But you see, he is really smiling happily. 】
[I don't understand. Why can you still laugh when you are so poor? ]
The conductor brought a loud speaker and started helping the fruit farmers to sell their products!
The purpose is to sell more in the carriage so that the burden can be lighter after getting off the train!
This was definitely not the first time the conductor had done this.
It can be seen that he is quite skilled in speaking, and his remarks are witty and eloquent, making the passengers laugh.
In addition, the fruits and vegetables grown by the fruit and vegetable farmers looked really tempting and were sold at very cheap prices, so the passengers rushed to buy them.
The fruit farmers are also very simple and honest. Each of them sets the scale high so as not to let the customers suffer losses and certainly not to cheat.
We are poor, but we have a conscience and we won’t cheat!
Compared with the ghost scales everywhere in the market, the difference is obvious!
Many farmers don’t have QR codes and passengers don’t have cash, but it doesn’t matter, the conductor has already prepared it!
She has a lot of change. Passengers scan the code to pay her, and she pays the fruit farmers!
[Wow, the train attendant is helping to sell goods. This kind of scene can only be seen in China! ]
[If you dared to sell on trains in our country, you would have been kicked off long ago. ]
[This big bag of change must contain at least a few hundred yuan! ]
[Haha, I think these fruit farmers and train attendants are so cute! ]
Thank you for your monthly votes and recommendation votes.
