"Grandpa" drink stall is popular with a two -dollar one cup of drinks to continue the cup after drinking

"Conscience Grandpa" drink stalls are popular [two yuan a cup of drinks without price increase can be renewed]

□ Changjiang Daily reporter Zhang Weina

Each of the eight types of drinks is two dollars and one cup, and you can renew the cup for free after drinking. Every night, 67 -year -old Xie Yongan will sell mung bean soup, red bean soup, sour plum soup, Tremella soup, rock sugar Sydney, rice wine, osmanthus paste, osmanthus, ice powder and other drinks near Wuhan Science and Technology Museum.

A customer asked him: "Two dollars and one cup, do you still make money in an unlimited renewal?" Lao Xie said with a smile, "Don't try to make money, just drink it." The wife repeatedly persuaded Lao Xie to raise the price: "This is not this is not Has his eyes lost? "But he insisted not to increase the price. Some netizens commented on Lao Xie: "Grandpa!"

"What can you buy in two dollars now? You can buy a bottle of mineral water. You want to buy a cup of mung bean soup for four or five dollars. Uncle Xie's drink is really conscience." On the evening of July 26, the reporter from the Yangtze River Daily reported on the scene. Seeing that customers stood in front of the stall, drinking mung bean soup while chatting with Lao Xie. Before the customer finished drinking, Lao Xie urged: "Come, add some, drink it casually, and be full."

"Two dollars drink casually, and it is so real!" Mr. Zheng, a citizen, rode an electric vehicle and passed by, bought a cup of Xie Mung Bean Soup, and a quarter of the cups were mung beans. He drank another glass of rock sugar Sydney and could eat four or five pears. He then came with a glass of rice wine and said with emotion: "It's really better than the rice wine sold outside." He spent two dollars in a total of two drinks.

More than 30 years ago, Xie Yongan came to Wuhan from his hometown from Gushi County, Henan Province. At first he sold vegetables, and then began to sell drinks. "I only sold only one dollar in a cup of a few years ago, and it rose to a cup of two dollars three years ago." Lao Xie said, a glass of water, he was embarrassed to sell too expensive.

When selling drinks on Jianghan Road, an old customer will make another drink after drinking. He was worried that customers would drink a cup without quenching, and simply wrote "Free Renewal" on the signboard.

"This old man will not do business in his life." Zhang Tonglan, 64, was the old -fashioned wife. She also repeatedly advised the price to increase the price, but he just insisted on not raising the price. Lao Xie has been selling drinks for 17 years, and Zhang Tonglan also quarreled with him for 17 years.

"One cup outside sells four or five pieces. We can sell three pieces in order to sell two pieces. You sell two pieces without renewal cups. Isn't this a loss?" Xie Yongan persuaded Xie Yongan countless times. Do not listen. If she couldn't persuade Lao Xie, she went out of the stall and changed the price to three dollars. On the third day, Lao Xie learned that Zhang Tonglan had increased the price and "seized" the sugar water business, and the price was changed back to two dollars a cup.

Speaking of Lao Xie, Zhang Tonglan mentioned to reporters: In 1989, Xie Yongan came to Wuhan to do vegetable business from his hometown alone. After four or five years, I didn't make money. The house's house leaks and rain, and it is urgently needed to be renovated. In desperation, Zhang Tonglan brought two children to Wuhan. "When I came, I knew that a bag of potatoes sold a hundred dollars in a bag of potatoes, and he sold 4050 yuan for a bag of potatoes. Do you say you can make money?" After some money, I decided to return home to build a house. After hearing about it, the villagers did not believe, "Xie Yongan can make money in doing business?" Later, everyone knew that it was Zhang Tonglan's work.

A few years ago, Zhang Tonglan worked in a restaurant. Now she is older and can only make some living expenses by picking up waste products. During the interview with the reporter, Zhang Tonglan sighed from time to time, pointing at the half bag of mung beans in the room, "This is the material he just bought yesterday, and you still choose to buy it every time."

For more than 30 years in Wuhan, the two elderly people now rent in an old house of more than 40 square meters, with a monthly rent of 700 yuan.

Zhang Tonglan often thought that Lao Xie had done a lifetime of business, and customers read him well, but the family didn't care about it. The house they rented was old and broken, but they were cleaned up. There was no air conditioning in the room, and there was only one old fan.

Lao Xie didn't have a mobile phone, and he didn't call. When he leaves the stall, he will take a alarm clock to see the time, go out at 9:30 every night, and collect the stall at 11:30 pm. In summer, he sells ice drinks, and he sells hot drinks in winter.

When the interview was on that day, Lao Xie sent the reporter to go out. Walking to the door of the nor -the staple restaurant, Lao Xie met a few neighbors. I heard that the reporter came to interview Lao Xie. Ding Jianguo, the owner of the non -staple restaurant, said: "Lao Xie is an honest person, enthusiastic person, and good person. Which neighbor said he wanted to move something, Lao Xie drove his flat car, and helped move it. Don't make money. "The neighbors once again persuaded Lao Xie's drinks to increase the price. After hearing it, he just laughed. Just listen to someone say, "Look, do he not listen?"
