The Salvation Army is a purely public welfare organization, relying on volunteers and donations, including store concierges and goods, although these people are the backbone members of the Salvation Army, they are still volunteers, they do not have a salary. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

From this point of view, Wang Bo's praise is not an exaggeration, these people are really proletarian revolutionary fighters, and they joined the Salvation Army simply to help those in need.

Hearing Wang Bo's words, Krell was overjoyed, and quickly stretched out his hand and said: "Thank you, Mayor Wang, what you have done is also worthy of our admiration, and we will be colleagues in the future." ”

Wang Bo smiled and shook hands with him, and then calculated in his heart, he has a lot of identities now, the Bull Club, the Quinoa Association, etc., and now there is one more member of the Salvation Army.

He joined the Salvation Army, and there were not many things to give, all he needed to do was to rent them a porter for free and let them use it as a second-hand store.

There are no second-hand shops in Sunset Town, but there are a lot of tourists here, and more tourists means more second-hand items, many of which are temporarily purchased by tourists, and when they leave, they will only take the most important things with them, and throw away those that they can't take with them.

With the Salvation Army second-hand store, at least this waste can be put to good use.

Any Salvation Army second-hand store is ready to accept donations from the public, new and old, but it is important to keep it clean, and if it is a functional product, such as toys, appliances, tools, computers, etc., you need to find as many original accessories as possible for others to use.

Wang Bo personally chose a house in the center of the town that had just expired, and he refused to renew the lease from the shopkeeper and handed over the house to the Salvation Army.

The name of The Salvation Army second-hand stores is SAFS, which is the abbreviation of SalvationArmyFamilyStores, and the signboard is very obvious, with the words "ThesalvationArmy" written on the red shield logo in white.

The staff in the store also have a uniform attire, and the logo in the shape of a shield is embroidered on the chest. And these staff are volunteers, and they need to pay for their own clothes.

The shop does not need to be renovated, and the Salvation Army's operating credo is to give every penny to the people who need it most, and the money wasted from renovation can help at least one family in need.

However, the store itself has been renovated, so it is not shabby to use directly.

There is also a second-hand Salvation Army store in the nearby town of Louis, and their warehouse has shelves, and Wang Bo asked Motak to drive the Ford pickup truck to move the shelves and start tidying up the store.

Just as The Salvation Army is willing to accept any useful second-hand items but must be clean and usable, their shops may not be renovated, but they must be kept hygienic and always be kept in order.

When the shelves arrived, the Salvation Army needed to recruit volunteers locally, and Wang Bo, as the mayor of the town, had to take the lead in this regard, so he happened to have little work on hand, so he went to help.

After Eva learned about it, she brought little Lori to help, she wanted to cultivate her sister's correct outlook on life and values, so she also actively joined the Salvation Army.

In addition, Haney, Uncle Bing, Bowen and Charlie joined in, so they were the first volunteers to come to work.

Wang Bo and his subordinates put the containers and shelves in order, and then several Salvation Army second-hand stores around the area delivered some goods, mainly audio-visual products, old clothes, second-hand sunglasses and second-hand MP3s and other things.

These things have a certain temptation for tourists and can be sold better.

The Salvation Army's backbone stayed in Sunset for a few days to familiarize them with the process of the job, one of the most important of which was sorting the goods.

Because classification involves warehousing, and commodity warehousing involves the final financial revenue.

The Salvation Army second-hand stores accept donations in eight main categories: used clothes, old furniture, household items, books, toys, audio-visual products, fashion goods, and handicrafts.

As soon as the store opened, someone came to the door, Wang Bo was happy to go to the reception, a couple brought two large cardboard boxes, and said: "We have some useless second-hand items here, hoping to give them to those in need." ”

Lao Wang thanked him repeatedly, but after opening the cardboard box, he was confused: this box contained some clothes and newspapers, of which the newspapers were half a box, which was full of thirty or forty catties.

In China, if you receive old newspapers, it is good to say that these things can be sold for waste paper, but in New Zealand, old newspapers cannot be sold, they can only be disposed of as garbage.

There were also those second-hand clothes, these clothes were dirty, and some were stained with oil, Wang Bo picked up one and asked, "Did you bring a rag too?" ”

The husband and wife knew that he was the mayor, so they spoke more politely: "Oh, sorry mayor, we forgot to clean it, or can you do it yourself?" In fact, the style and quality of these clothes are very good. ”

In the past few days, Wang Bo has followed the backbone of the Salvation Army to build a store, and has figured out some rules of this organization, the most important of which is that the Salvation Army collects second-hand items for charity work, not a garbage disposal station.

Therefore, he didn't give the two of them any face, and said directly: "Hey, two, no matter what old items they are, as long as they are useful, the Salvation Army is willing to accept them." But please note that The Salvation Army is not a place to throw garbage, especially big garbage, ok? ”

Large garbage is bulk garbage, such as discarded refrigerators, washing machines, wood, furniture, etc., these things are not allowed to be put in the trash, but wait until a certain day, the government specially arranges cleaning trucks to clean up the garbage.

Generally speaking, this is only done once or twice a year, so every house in New Zealand has a garage, which is used for storing this garbage.

Hearing his words, the husband and wife showed embarrassed expressions, and the man resignedly said: "Okay, mayor, we just immigrated to New Zealand, and we don't know the rules here. ”

Wang Bo pushed the two boxes back to Xiang Rang and said, "If something is really unusable or completely damaged or polluted, please don't waste our staff's time." ”

Hani also came over and said dissatisfiedly, "Please respect the volunteers of the Salvation Army, ok?" They are a group of good people with strong beliefs, enthusiasm and love, not helpers who take care of your garbage, ok? ”

“ok！ ok！ The two nodded, and then walked away in a huff.

Seeing that Lao Wang's face was ugly, Krell came over to comfort him and said: "Hey, Wang, don't be depressed, we will inevitably encounter various problems in our work, but the Salvation Army can overcome them, come on, I will teach you how to select items and classify them." ”
