There is a very old small shopping mall downstairs from my house.
There are two photocopying shops inside.
I have been visiting since middle school till now.
One is run by my mother-in-law.
The other one is run by my uncle.
-
Both stores always close at nine o'clock.
One day I went to the store after eight o'clock to make photocopies.
I found that both stores were half closed and ready to call it a day.
But it happened that my uncle was repairing one of the photocopiers.
So you can wait until I finish printing before getting off work.
-
Suddenly the conversation started,
The uncle said that they have always relied on students from nearby schools and the tutoring center business.
The main force makes a living by printing refill exercises and other materials.
However, many people have immigrated in recent years, and the birth rate is low.
In addition, everyone has switched to electronic versions,
The business of the photocopy shop is getting worse and worse.
Even the photocopier is broken,
There is no master to repair it.
Due to bad business,
So now they will close earlier.
-
I have been patronizing my uncle for more than ten years.
But I have never heard his story,
After discovering that he was very talkative,
Of course I should seize the opportunity to chat more XD
It turns out that my uncle worked in a factory when he was young.
Later the factory disappeared.
He opened a novel store for rent,
When novel shops and comic shops have declined,
So I opened this photocopying shop.
I have been doing this for more than ten years.
The uncle said that the factory owner used his home phone number to buy Mark Six lottery tickets.
Won 800,000 (the previous 800,000 was a huge sum),
So my uncle watched the transformation early in the morning,
Some things are yours,
If it's not yours, it's not yours.
So he won't force anything,
Nowadays, when business at the photocopying shop is slow, it is also said that we can make peace.
When the weather is good, you can earn two meals.
Anyway, he has no desire, and earning two meals is already good.
-
In these short ten minutes,
I suddenly gained a lot of life philosophy,
So being old doesn’t necessarily mean being boring or old-fashioned;
As long as you are willing to dig deeper,
Treasures will be found inside.
