Chapter 3 Reduced to picking up trash?

"hurry up!"

It was hot summer at this time, Qin Hailang was already sweating profusely without walking far, and even the breeze blowing was hot.

He rummaged through boxes and cabinets along the way, and so far he has picked up 20 plastic bottles from more than a dozen garbage bins along the way.He is 20 years old, a very young lad.The passers-by all looked sideways when they saw that he was so young carrying a few snakeskin bags to pick up trash.

Apparently those passers-by were very puzzled why Qin Hailang chose to pick up trash!
He didn't pay attention to the strange intentions of these passers-by, and now he was engrossed in the work of searching for plastic bottles in the trash can.

It didn't take long for Qin Hailang to come to this large shopping mall nearby. The small square outside the shopping mall had as many as seven or eight garbage bins.

Among the crowds, he took a snakeskin bag and rummaged through the garbage cans, forming a beautiful landscape here!
Generally, those who pick up garbage are the kind of aunts and uncles who are 70 or [-] years old, or they are homeless.But it's really rare for a young man like Qin Hailang, who looks like a college student, to go through the trash can.

Only people who are unable to work and support themselves will pick up trash.

"Haha...Four more plastic bottles were found." Qin Hailang walked to a trash bin and saw four plastic bottles lying quietly inside.They pile up with trash like banana peels, rotten paper towels, plastic bags, etc.

He didn't care whether the trash can was dirty, he just reached in and took out the four plastic bottles, then quickly unscrewed the caps and twisted hard, the whole plastic bottle was flattened by him, and then thrown into the snakeskin bag.Only in this way can the snakeskin bag hold more plastic bottles.

"35, 36..."

"It's still far away from 2000, come on!" Qin Hailang wiped the sweat from his forehead and ran to the next trash can.Time is money, and he has to race against time.

At this time, not far away, a little girl with a porcelain doll looked at Qin Hailang who was rummaging through the trash can and said childishly: "Mom, what is that big brother looking for in the trash can? Is there any sugar in the trash can?" ?”

"Why is there sugar in the trash can? Silly boy, there is only rubbish in the trash. That big brother must not have worked hard and studied hard before. You see, he can only make a living by picking up trash now. So don't imitate him, you must be good at it." Do you know how to study? You will be a girl who will sit in an office in the future!" The little girl's mother patted her head and taught.

"Oh, mom, I know, I must study hard."

"..."

A busy hour passed like this.

"There are already 150, and the harvest is not small, but I have rummaged through the trash cans in the nearby streets. It seems that I have to go to a farther place." Qin Hailang's clothes are already soaked in sweat.

The high temperature of 36 degrees made him sweat profusely, and the possibility of heat stroke is very high if he continues to sunbathe like this.

Now he really experienced that sentence, when the day of hoeing is at noon, the sweat drips down to the soil, with the face facing the loess and the back facing the sky.Although it is not about picking up garbage, the reason is the same.He deeply understands that making money is not easy.

As more and more plastic bottles were picked up, the snakeskin bag became heavier and heavier, and I had to carry it to rummage through boxes and cabinets.Anyway, wherever he saw a trash can, Qin Hailang would trot over there.It looked like he was desperately trying to pick up trash.

Yes, he dared not stop, he dared not slow down.He is afraid that time is not enough!
He dare not go, he can only run!
In order to find more plastic bottles.

In the morning, Qin Hailang appeared in trash cans around a ten-kilometer radius. He was tall and thin, holding a large bag of plastic bottles in snakeskin bags. He was running, and he was constantly looking for trash cans. , looking for plastic bottles.

One morning passed, and he found a total of more than 500 plastic bottles, which made him very gratified.

But his whole body was tanned, and he was dizzy, probably because he had been in the sun for too long.

I hurried home, dumped all the more than 500 plastic bottles in the living room, ate a few bowls of porridge in a hurry, put on my hat, took a few bottles of boiling water in plastic bottles, and went out quickly.

Only now have I picked up more than 500 plastic bottles, which is still more than 2000 away from 1500!

In the afternoon, the sun was more intense and the temperature was even higher. The asphalt road and the cement radiated heat waves under the sun for a morning.You can sweat profusely no matter where you stand motionless.

"Really the wind is hot, and the floor is hot." Qin Hailang said with emotion.

"Hey, there is a water park in front, I believe there must be a lot of plastic bottles in the trash bin at the door."

You must know that it is hot now, and the water park is overcrowded.The weather is hot and the population is dense, so there must be more people drinking mineral water and beverages.There must be a lot of plastic bottles over there.

Sure enough, there were seven or eight trash cans, large and small, at the entrance of the amusement park.

"Go away!"

Carrying half a bag of plastic bottles, Qin Hailang trotted over in a hurry. He was full of energy now.Although it was very hot and tired, he still persisted.

He continued to rummage through the trash can, and here again, he caught the attention of a crowd of people.

Some of them pointed at him, probably because he thought he was stupid when he was so young to pick up trash.

At this time, Qin Hailang didn't know that a group of acquaintances were watching him not far away.

This group of people is not someone, but the group of classmates in his college class. These people are all here to play at the class party.

"Hey, the trash picker over there looks familiar. Isn't this Qin Hailang?" At this time, a male student pointed at Qin Hailang who was digging through the trash can more than ten meters away.

At this moment, Qin Hailang was a little disheveled and his clothes were dirty because he had picked up rubbish all morning and noon.It's almost unrecognizable if you don't pay attention.After all, he was carrying a snakeskin bag.

As soon as he heard that it was Qin Hailang, Li Zicong immediately became interested. He poked his head around and shouted, "Damn it, it's really Qin Hailang. No wonder he didn't come to the class party for fun. So he was picking up trash ah!"

"It's really a work-study program." Chow Tai Fook on the side did not forget to sneer.

In fact, the two of them were very happy when they saw Qin Hailang picking up trash.

"Oh, the rich second generation back then, but now they are reduced to picking up plastic bottles to make money. It's really miserable."

"Isn't it! Sometimes it's not good to have money in the family. You see, Qin Hailang's family has gone bankrupt, and now it's hard."

In addition, some students pointed and said.

Lin Muqing also frowned slightly when she saw this. At first, she thought that even if Qin Hailang's family had no business, they should be able to live comfortably.Now that she saw Qin Hailang picking up trash, she knew that Qin Hailang's life was difficult.

It's hard enough to pick up trash for a living.

She now understands why the other party doesn't come to the class reunion to play, and he doesn't come after the whole class, because he really can't even afford 100 yuan! For him, 100 yuan is a week or more of living expenses.
