Chapter 3 Reduced to Picking Up Trash?

"Hurry up!"

It was the hot summer. Qin Hailang was sweating profusely before he walked far, and even the breeze was hot.

He has been rummaging through boxes and cabinets all the way, and now he has picked up 20 plastic bottles from more than a dozen trash cans along the way. He is 20 years old and a very young man. Those passers-by are looking at him when he sees him so young and holding a few snakeskin bags to pick up garbage.

Obviously, those passers-by were puzzled why Qin Hailang chose to pick up trash!

He ignored these strange goals from passers-by. He is now immersed in the work of rummaging on plastic bottles in the garbage can.

Not long after, Qin Hailang came to this large shopping mall nearby. There were as many as seven or eight garbage bins in the small square outside the shopping mall.

Among the crowds, he was carrying a snakeskin bag in the trash can search for garbage and formed a beautiful scenery here!

Generally, people pick up garbage are those who are in their sixties and seventies, or are homeless people. However, it is rare for young people like Qin Hailang to flip through the trash can.

Only those who do not have the ability to work and support themselves will pick up garbage.

"Haha... I found four plastic bottles again." Qin Hailang walked to a trash can and saw four plastic bottles lying quietly inside. They were piled up with banana peels, rotten tissues, plastic bags and other garbage.

He didn't care whether the trash can was dirty or not, so he reached in and took out the four plastic bottles, then quickly unscrew the bottle cap and twisted it hard, and he twisted the entire plastic bottle flattened and threw it into a snakeskin bag. Only in this way can the snakeskin bag contain more plastic bottles.

“35, 36…”

"It's still far away from 2,000, come on!" Qin Hailang wiped the sweat from his forehead and ran towards the next trash can. Time is money, and he wants to race against time.

At this moment, a little girl from porcelain doll not far away looked at Qin Hailang who was rumbling through the trash can and said angrily: "Mom, what are that big brother rumbling through the trash can? Is there any candy in the trash can?"

"Why are there candy in the trash bin? Is there a silly child? There is only garbage in the trash bin. That big brother must have not worked hard before. You see, he can only make a living by picking up garbage now. So don't learn from him, you must study hard, do you know? In the future, you will be a girl who will sit in the office!" The little girl's mother touched her head and taught.

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

“…”

The busy hour passed like this.

"There are 150, and the harvest is quite good, but I have searched all the garbage bins in the nearby streets. It seems that I will go farther." Qin Hailang's clothes were soaked in sweat at this moment.

The high temperature of 36 degrees made him sweat profusely, and it is possible to have a heat stroke if he continues like this.

Now he truly experienced that sentence: when he was hoeing, sweat dripped into the soil, facing the loess and back to the sky. Although it was not about picking up garbage, the truth was the same. He deeply realized that it was not easy to make money.

As more and more plastic bottles were picked up, the snakeskin bags were getting heavier and he had to carry them to rummage the boxes and cabinets. Anyway, Qin Hailang trotted over wherever he saw trash cans. It looked like he was trying his best to pick up garbage.

Yes, he dared not stop, he dared not slow down. He was afraid that there would not be enough time!

He didn't dare to leave, he could only run!

In order to find more plastic bottles.

In the morning, Qin Hailang appeared in the garbage bins in the radius of ten kilometers. He was tall and thin, holding a large bag of plastic bottles in snakeskin bags. He was running, and he was constantly looking for the garbage bins and plastic bottles.

One morning passed, and he found more than 500 plastic bottles in total, which made him very pleased with this result.

But he was tanned all over and was dizzy, probably because he had been sunburned for too long.

I hurried home, poured all 500 plastic bottles into the living room, then hurriedly ate a few bowls of porridge, then put on a hat, took a few bottles of boiling water in plastic bottles and went out quickly.

Now I have only picked up more than 500 plastic bottles, and the distance between 2,000 is still more than 1,500!

In the afternoon, the sun became more intense and the temperature was higher. The asphalt roads and cement emitted a wave of heat under the sun exposure for a morning. You can sweat like rain wherever you stand.

"It's really hot, and the floor is hot." Qin Hailang sighed.

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

You should know that the weather is hot now and the water park is crowded. The weather is hot and the population is dense. There must be many people drinking mineral water and drink beverages. There must be a lot of plastic bottles there.

Sure enough, when I walked to the entrance of the amusement park, there were seven or eight garbage bins of all sizes.

"Go away!"

Qin Hailang hurriedly trotted over with half a bag of plastic bottles on his back. He is now full of energy. Although he is very hot and tired, he is still persevering.

Continuing to rummage through the trash can, which caused a crowd of people to look at each other.

Someone among them pointed at him, probably because he saw him so young and went to pick up trash and thought he was stupid.

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

This group of people is either someone, or the group of classmates in his university class. These people are all here to have a class party and have fun.

"Hey, the people who picked up garbage over there look so familiar. Isn't this Qin Hailang?" At this time, a male classmate pointed at Qin Hailang, who was climbing over the trash can, more than ten meters away, and said.

At this moment, Qin Hailang picked up garbage for one morning and noon, and his clothes were dirty. He almost couldn't recognize him if he didn't pay attention. After all, he was carrying a snakeskin bag.

When Li Zicong heard that it was Qin Hailang, he immediately became interested. He looked at it and shouted, "Damn it, it's really Qin Hailang. No wonder he didn't come to the class party to play. It turned out that he was picking up trash!"

"It's really a part-time job to earn a job." Chow Tai Fook, who was on the side, did not forget to sarcastically.

In fact, they were very happy when they saw Qin Hailang picking up trash.

"Oh, the rich second generation at the time has now become a profitable person who has been reduced to picking up plastic bottles and making money. It's so miserable."

"Isn't it! Sometimes it's not necessarily good to have money at home. Look, like Qin Hailang, the family goes bankrupt, and now it's hard."

In addition, some students were talking pointedly.

Lin Muqing frowned slightly when she saw this. She thought that even if Qin Hailang's family had no business, she should have enough food and clothing. Now she saw Qin Hailang picking up garbage and realized that the other party's life was difficult.

It's so difficult that I'm going to pick up trash to make a living.
