Chapter 1 Pay attention to heatstroke prevention in summer
Li Wen rode a dilapidated electric tricycle "speeding" through the streets and alleys of the city. Said to be galloping, it was actually a compliment to the dilapidated electric tricycle, because it could run up to twenty-five yards.
Li Wen is 28 years old and is an entity engaged in "food wholesaler".
With the development of transportation, information transparency and the rise of e-commerce, the traditional physical industry is becoming more and more difficult, not to mention the middlemen like him who make the difference!
When he was a child, there were only a few wholesale streets left in the city, and Li Wen rented a private house outside the city in order to save on retail expenses.
If the current physical industry wants to survive, it must keep up with the pace of society and improve services to survive.
Li Wen stayed in a big city for several years after graduating from a junior college. His great dream of getting rich immediately after graduation and reaching the pinnacle of his life to marry Bai Fumei became a fantasy when he became unemployed after graduation. The fantasy also lost ground as he grew older.
reality.
He has run takeouts, set up street stalls, moved bricks on construction sites, driven screws in factories, worked in e-commerce, sold cars, and applied for credit cards. He has been involved in many public industries.
After working for several years, Li Wen felt that as he grew older, it became more and more difficult for him to integrate into the big city of Chang'an. The rapid development of the city made him feel strange and excluded. It is really difficult to live in a big city!
I went home for the Chinese New Year the year before last and was introduced to the current retail industry by my relatives.
After getting to know it for a while, I feel that although wholesale is hard work, it is more stable than before. After all, I am not young anymore.
He fled from the big city in embarrassment and returned to the small county town where he was born and raised. With the support of his parents, he bought this small wholesale department and changed its name to "Time Trading".
Perhaps due to the stubbornness and hope in my heart, Time Wholesale Department may grow into a large trading company.
Two years have passed in the blink of an eye. Although it was hard work, I bought my first car. This is a big step forward in my life.
Every time I see the car at the door, my heart inevitably stirs up. After all, you need a mount to find a wife, and you have to start a face-saving project.
It's so damn hot today! The summer in the north is extremely hot. The sun shines on the asphalt road at noon, causing heat waves to rise. The surface temperature can reach nearly 60 degrees Celsius, which makes his face feel hot. Li Wen rubbed his hot face.
face and wiped the sweat from his forehead.
The weather in summer is too hot, so Li Wen usually delivers goods in the morning and afternoon to avoid the high temperature at noon, but today a customer happened to ask for an expedited shipment at noon.
There is no way business is not doing well right now, service is number one! Leaving aside his half-eaten lunch, Li Wen hurriedly loaded up the goods, got on his beloved three-wheeler and hurried away. When he arrived at the door of the customer's store, he saw General Tie holding the door.
, and instantly felt that my whole body was not well.
"Brother, I delivered the goods to your door. Why are you closing?" Li Wen called as calmly as possible.
"I happened to be in a hurry and went out. I've been waiting for you for more than ten minutes and you haven't come. I can't wait anymore. How about you deliver it in the afternoon? Your delivery is too slow and your service is not good. Deliver it to me on time in the afternoon. Call me.
Said the other end."
Damn it, it takes you an hour to order a takeaway. Even though Li Wen scolded the customer countless times in his heart, he still smiled and said, "Brother, if you have something to do, please go to work first. I'm just dropping by. I'll deliver it to you in the afternoon."
.
On a hot noon, the sun was beating down mercilessly. Hou Kun, who was already a little chubby, was sweating profusely due to the heat, so he hurriedly rode his bike to the warehouse again.
When I got home and looked at the noodles that had already become a ball, I was so angry that I lost my appetite. Oh! What did you do? I didn't say anything good all day long.
In the past two years, Li Wen has become his lifelong grandson. Li Wen lamented that it is not easy for a small businessman, so he took out a bottle of frozen black tea and drank it in one go!
Cool! Bing Sensen, I respect you as the person who invented the refrigerator. As he spoke, he drank a large bottle of ice-cold Coke. Suddenly he felt chest tightness, shortness of breath, and severe pain in his stomach.
He thought to himself, "It's not good." Li Wen realized that he had a reaction after drinking ice water after being overheated, and then lost consciousness.
No, no, Brother Wenzi fell asleep on the ground! A few little carrot heads who were playing in the mud at the end of the field saw a man lying on the wheat stubble and shouted to the adults who were working.
In summer, people wear thin clothes, and during the busy farming season, men work shirtless in the fields. Children in the countryside all know that the wheat stubble from which the wheat has been cut is extremely hard. If you are not careful, you can cut your hand even if you sleep on it.
You can't even stab your back to pieces.
Those who were working nearby saw someone lying in the ground. Knowing that something bad had happened, they dropped their sickles and ran over.
"Ah! Who slapped me in the face?" Li Wen felt like someone slapped him in the face, causing severe pain on his face, and he shouted in his heart.
Just as I was about to scream, I suddenly felt weak all over, my throat was dry, my lips were dry, my mouth was sticky, my back was tingling, and my head was dizzy.
He opened his eyes in confusion and saw a shirtless middle-aged man with a shiny body raising his black hand and preparing to slap him in the face.
He hurriedly blocked it with his hands, but he felt too weak to lift his hands, and then he was slapped and fainted again.
Wenzi, Wenzi, don’t you dare to shout daddy, Li Wen’s father Li Deyou was so frightened that he just slapped him in the face in a crude way.
"Fifth Master, Fifth Master, Brother Wenzi's eyes were opened just now, and I saw him open his mouth, but you knocked him to sleep again," said the little carrot head who was watching the fun and not taking it too seriously.
"I saw it too, I saw it too, Brother Wenzi even moved his hands," the other little carrot heads nearby shouted.
"Dad! Hurry and carry my little brother back to cool off. He must be suffering from heat stroke. I'm going to call the third master to show Wenzi a look. At this time, Li Wen's second brother Li Wu, who came from the fields, called out hurriedly.
As soon as Li Deyou heard this, he calmed down, quickly picked it up and ran home.
It was the busy time of the year when the fields were full of people, and Li Deyou was running all the way. People in the field saw him and shouted, "What's wrong with Lao Wu Wenzi?" They asked with concern.
Li Deyou sighed as he ran, it seemed like he had a heat stroke while harvesting wheat at noon. Not to mention that you were busy, he hurried back.
My brother, my baby is only 13 years old. Is it still broken? You let your baby earn centimeters at noon. This baby is not like us who are thick-skinned and thick-skinned and are not afraid of the sun. Besides, the weather this year is too hot. I am almost ready.
I can’t carry it anymore, let alone the baby, Li Decai, the nine-year-old from next door, called out.
"Come! Fifth brother, let me give you a hand and we can quickly carry the baby away."
Isn't this just a few days ago when Wenzi graduated from junior high school, and I was thinking about taking the vacation to help my family earn more work points?
As the two of them were jogging, Lao Jiudecai gasped and said, "I really don't know how to live this year. The whole family has not had enough to eat, and we have to work hard every day on an empty stomach. We adults
I can still resist it, but this baby is a talented person (when he grows taller) and he will definitely not be able to resist it."
Mom, second mom, are you in the house? They shouted after entering the door.
"You can yell no matter what, you are such a grown-up person and you can't be steady for a day."
"Oops! What happened to Deyou, Decai, and Kunwazi?" Guo Xiuyun, the grandma in this life, came out from behind the door and saw Li Wen lying on Li Deyou's back and shouted loudly in fright.
Mom, Wenzi seems to be suffering from heatstroke. You quickly get a basin of cold water and I'll apply it on the baby. It's too hot here.
I hurried to fetch water, and Decai also hurried to call you Jun Shengda (Da: uncle's title). Guo Xiuyun said anxiously: "Mom, Xiaowu called me Sanda," Li Deyou called.
With a burst of coolness, Li Wen slowly opened his eyes. He had a splitting headache, and memories flooded into his mind. His throat felt like it was on fire, and his back still hurt. He shouted, "I want to drink water."
Dr. Junsheng, who was wiping Li Wen's body with alcohol, breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Li Wen was awake. He shouted with a smile: "Second sister-in-law, please bring cold water to the baby. The baby is awake. It's not a big problem."
Oh, oh! Wenzi, please wait a moment for me to bring you some water. I have to take pity on my baby.
After drinking a large teapot of cold boiled water, Li Wen felt like he was alive. He stared at the rows of arm-thick black beams above his head, and then saw the house full of people standing and sitting. He couldn't accept it for a moment and rubbed it.
He rubbed his dizzy head and said, Mom, I'm fine, but my head is still a little dizzy and I want to sleep for a while.
Junda, an old doctor in the village, shouted: "Second sister-in-law, let's all go out. There are too many people in the house and it's stuffy. Let the baby take a nap and it will be fine after it cools down. It's too hot these days. Make some mung bean soup and put it in the well."
, usually let everyone in the house drink something at noon to clear away heat and prevent heat stroke."
In an era when refrigerators were not popular, the well in one's own yard was a natural refrigerator for rural people.
"Wenzi, take a good rest, we're going out first," grandma Guo Xiuyun whispered. Li Wen closed his eyes and nodded, and everyone in the room rushed out of the door.
Li Wen heard the voices of people outside and fell into deep thought. Based on the memory of the original owner, he concluded that he had returned to his hometown in the 1950s and became his grandfather's younger brother.
When I was a child, I heard my grandfather say that he used to have a third brother, but when he was a teenager, he was too hot to work in the fields.
After accepting the memory of his cheap third master, Li Wen also became calmer. He is thirteen years old this year and the third eldest child in the family. He has an older brother and an older sister, and a younger brother and younger sister. He has a large family.
