Indulge in life

He looked at his phone, it was already 06:30, he passed the technical department, he went over to take a look, greeted Huang Xiaofeng, asked a few words, and heard that the people sent by Situ Xuan to pick up the machine went well, so he was relieved up.

Jinggu Market has already been cleared, Chen Liang probably went back long ago, Tang Weichao has nothing to do, he is going to walk slowly back to his residence, find something to eat at random restaurants on the way, and end his busy day.

After leaving the Crystal Valley Market, he walked eastward, and after passing the Fourth Ring Bridge, he had to go east all the way. He lived next to the Third Ring Road, and it took about half an hour to walk there. It's hot.

After walking for about ten minutes, Tang Weichao saw a peasant woman carrying two baskets of purple and large grapes on the opposite side of the road, walking in the same direction as himself, and the burden seemed heavy. Both ends of the shoulder pole were slightly bent down. The peasant woman was wearing a shabby overalls. I don’t know when it was issued. It had already been washed to grayish white. The sweat soaked from her back almost soaked the whole clothes, but she still insisted. move forward.

Tang Weichao slowed down a bit. Looking at this peasant woman, he suddenly felt a pang of sadness in his heart. He looked at the towering buildings on both sides of the street, the luxurious and beautifully decorated offices inside, and the various luxury vehicles parked on the street. The supporting peasant woman looks so uncoordinated. Society is always unfair. The difference between the rich and the poor is always so big, and even continues to expand.

Think of a sentence in the Bible, "Whoever has, give him and make him rich; but whoever has nothing, even what he has will be taken away."

This passage comes from the "New Testament Matthew", so it is also called the "Matthew Effect". Simply put, it means "the poor get poorer and the rich get richer". In modern society, this effect is nowhere No, it is always easy for money to make money, so rich people can easily earn more money; but if you have nothing, it is very difficult to get rich.

Tang Weichao sighed, there are too many people living at the bottom who have never had the opportunity to join the upper class in their lives, and conversely, those people in the upper class always have more opportunities to obtain wealth, so many that you can't believe it .

However, this society is supported by countless people at the bottom. Without them, what would the upper class rely on to obtain wealth?However, when the rich have money, how much will be given back to them?

Thinking wildly like this, Tang Weichao saw the peasant woman who had been walking far away with him, put down the pick, wiped sweat with her sleeves, and then kept fanning the wind with her hands, panting heavily, as if she was so tired No, I need to rest for a while.

At this time, a light truck marked "Urban Management Supervision" drove over and stopped beside the peasant woman with a creak, and three idlers jumped out of the car, almost all of their clothes were unbuttoned and their arms were half open. Pointing to the two baskets of grapes, he shouted, "Why are you setting up a stall on the street?"

"I...I didn't, I just rested after walking..." The peasant woman had never seen such a formation before, so she quickly argued.

"Take a rest when you're tired from walking, don't lie to us, are we so easy to lie to, just admit it honestly after setting up a stall to sell things, why, at such an old age, you still don't tell the truth?" A guy with a stern voice drank.

"I really didn't sell it. I just bought it in the wholesale market. I just carried it back. I have a stall in the front market. I will sell it in the market tomorrow..." The peasant woman pointed to the front, not far away. There is indeed a market there, and Tang Weichao knows it.

"If you sell it, you'll sell it. Why are you so dishonest! If you don't admit it, you'll confiscate it!" Although the other one didn't speak very loudly, it was ruthless.

Tang Weichao stopped and took a look. He felt that those guys were too much, so he couldn't help crossing the road to prove that this peasant woman didn't sell anything at all.

"I really didn't sell it, really..." The peasant woman was at a loss and just repeated what she didn't sell.

"Don't...don't come here. If you admit it well, maybe...you won't be fined. If you really don't admit it, then you will be fined...you will be fined!" The person who seemed to be the leader said. , with a very serious face, as if making an exception to give the peasant woman a chance, but it's a pity that he stuttered a little, and his dignity couldn't be upheld.

"But..." The peasant woman didn't know whether to continue to insist that she didn't sell it, or whether she should follow what they said and just admit it. Didn't they say that if you admit it, you won't be punished?

Tang Weichao walked up to them and saw some clues. These guys deliberately lured the peasant woman to admit that she had sold grapes, and it became a fact that she had set up a stall on the side of the road. It was up to her how to deal with it.

"If it's not for sale, it's not for sale. Why are you so tempting?" Tang Weichao spoke while the peasant woman was still hesitating.

"Who are you? We are here to enforce the law, why are you joining in the fun?" Seeing that the peasant woman was about to be fooled, Cheng Yaojin suddenly came out from the side, and these people were a little annoyed.

"I was passing by, and I could see clearly that she walked all the way carrying the pick. She was too tired to put down the pick to rest for a while. No one came to buy grapes. Why do you say she sells grapes out of thin air? Have you done it?" Tang Weichao said to the peasant woman again, "Don't be fooled by them, if you say you sold it, they will confirm your messy stalls, and then they will punish you!"

"Ah! I didn't sell it, I really didn't sell it!" The peasant woman also realized what was going on, and shouted quickly.

"Damn, you are on that road, meddling in your own business! How do you know she hasn't sold it? She said it was from the wholesale market, which is far away from here. Have you been staring at her? Didn't sell it?" Several people yelled and scolded, while finding new reasons.

Tang Weichao was stunned for a moment. What they said made sense. It was impossible for him to keep staring at the peasant woman who had traveled such a long distance. As long as he said he didn't see the whole process, it wouldn't prove that she didn't sell it, but it was also unlikely for him. I see it all the time, what should I do with this certificate?

He looked at the two baskets, and there were only grapes in them. One basket was full of rose fragrance, all of them were plump and round, and the purple-black grape skins were shining brightly. The grapes are tightly squeezed, and a bunch of them weighs two to three catties. They must look sweet and delicious.

"I didn't keep an eye on it, but I saw it this way. She really didn't sell it!"

"That's it. Didn't you see that she sold it elsewhere?" The other party really found out the loophole and began to question.

"If she was sold elsewhere, then you should arrest her elsewhere. Why did she come here to arrest her?" Tang Weichao asked tit for tat without giving in.
