Humor of uncle selling vegetables in rural areas

Feng Jicai wrote a book called The Wonder of the Market. In this book, Feng Jicai wrote a lot of strange people from all walks of life, seemingly ordinary, but in fact he was stunted. In recent years, with the development of the Internet, more and more "market geeks" have been discovered and become a new generation of "network celebrities".

A sculptor in the vegetable market

Every morning, 40-year-old Guo Yuhong comes to the vegetable market early. He is a grocer here. There are dozens of vendors like him in this vegetable market, but only his food stall is the most prosperous.

When other stall owners came, the first thing they did was to take out fish scales, but Guo Yuhong took out a meat cleaver first. This knife is the secret of his better business than others. Customers often visit Guo Yuhong's booth not to buy food, but to buy a pair of "works".

Customers come one after another, and Guo Yuhong's booth is packed, which is what Guo Yuhong is used to. Of course, what you see is not food, but Guo Yuhong's craft. As soon as many guests arrived, they began to "order" with familiarity: "Master Guo, how about making me a the Monkey King today?"

"No problem!" Guo Yuhong agreed, then picked up a wax gourd of the right size at hand and started to create with a knife in one hand. I saw the blade flying up and down, and soon carved the outline of a monkey, which attracted people around me to marvel. Guo Yuhong built one here and one there. Soon, he carved a "the Monkey King" like that on an ordinary wax gourd.

This is Guo Yuhong's housekeeping skill. This simple vegetable vendor is actually a "master sculptor".

Second, another way of dreaming.

For example, Guo Yuhong, who is 40 years old, has not actually received any artistic training. He grew up in a poor family and it is good to be able to fill his stomach. Although he has always been interested in painting, how can his family afford to burn so much money for art? Guo Yuhong is actually very artistic. When he saw something when he was young, he could draw it as soon as he got home, but painting didn't make any money, so Guo Yuhong dropped out of school before finishing primary school.

In order to subsidize the family, Guo Yuhong has been selling vegetables in the vegetable market since 13 years old. Her artistic dream is getting farther and farther away from him. She has grown up, got married, had children, and is tired of thinking about everything just to support her family. Guo Yuhong also thinks that maybe her life has just passed.

Until about seven years ago, Guo Yuhong, who was still selling vegetables, felt bored. He saw a fruit knife beside him, so he picked it up and carved a peach on the watermelon to kill time. Soon, he carved a peach on the watermelon skin, and the people next to him thought it was very interesting, but after a while, Guo Yuhong threw the watermelon aside and didn't take it seriously.

I didn't expect the guests to be very interested in Guo Yuhong's carved watermelon, and found it particularly interesting to watch. Customers who don't want to buy watermelons directly pay a high price and send them away. Guo Yuhong was pleasantly surprised. I didn't expect that the art that I once thought could not be eaten as a meal could really make money.

This made Guo Yuhong's mind turn a corner. If he carves on other vegetables and fruits, can he get a good price?

Guo Yuhong began to try to carve some simple paintings on the skin of winter melon. His prediction is correct. Once the same dish is carved, the customer is willing to buy it and pay a high price, which not only makes him earn money, but also realizes his original ideal. This makes Guo Yuhong very happy. From then on, he began to be a "sculptor" in the vegetable market. Someone took photos of Guo Yuhong's works and posted them online. Guo Yuhong overnight.

Later, Guo Yuhong was no longer satisfied with carving simple lines. He went to the bookstore and bought an album, hoping to really improve his level. It was soon discovered that Master Guo's skill was excellent, and carving small animals was nothing. He even carved the world famous paintings, such as Mona Lisa, on the skin of winter melon! Everyone was shocked, and Guo Yuhong's stall business became more and more prosperous.

Guo Yuhong, who has a skill, has a prosperous business. From morning till midnight, she sometimes has no time to rest, but Guo Yuhong feels much richer and happier than before. Guo Yuhong lamented that in this life, people still have to have what they really like in order to find the meaning of living.

Third, love forever.

Later, Guo Yuhong began to try new techniques, such as carving on smaller things, such as apples and carrots. He also learned three-dimensional carving. His three-dimensional sculpture "Mantis standing on the corn" carved with carrots is just like living. The corn grains are clear, and the mantis is lifelike, as if it is going to jump away in the next second. This work has achieved Guo Yuhong's craftsmanship to the next level. Some people are willing to pay tens of thousands of dollars for it, but Guo Yuhong thinks it is a collection.

Today, Guo Yuhong lives a seemingly ordinary but interesting life. A meat cleaver is the greatest pleasure in his life. Many people came here not far from Wan Li just to see what this "painter who has been delayed in buying food" looks like. Although he is popular, Guo Yuhong maintains a humble attitude. He thinks he is not a painter, but a vegetable vendor with some skills, but he is sincerely happy that everyone likes his works so much.

In the future, Guo Yuhong said that he would continue to work hard to make his craft better, not to disappoint so many people who like him, and to continue to pursue his hobbies, which would be the happiest thing for Guo Yuhong in the world.

There are not a few people with special skills in the market. They are the most ordinary working people, but they have created a new world with their own skills. Many folk intangible cultural heritages are created and passed down by ordinary people in the market. Their precious creativity has left a wonderful moment for our folk culture.

We often say that there is a gap between ideal and reality. Many times, for the sake of reality, we have to give up our ideals, but Guo Yuhong shows us another hope. In the tumultuous reality, perhaps we can also try to leave a place for our former ideals and make our ordinary life more colorful. After all, if you have the pursuit of life, you won't waste your time and leave regrets.
