Chapter 40 40

Freedom is not something that money can buy, but it can be sold for money. Mr. Lu Xun's words touched me a lot. I'm a very freedom-loving person, and of course I don't want to be free without limits, but to be able to do whatever the law allows.

I've seen a couple waiting for the bus at the bus stop, the father holding their baby in his arms, and the mother standing next to her husband staring in the direction of the bus, as if she had been waiting for a while. The child in his arms seemed to be a few months old, and suddenly he cried for some reason, the father was at a loss, thinking that the child was hungry, and the mother who stood aside hugged the child and said that it might be urine, and said that the father of the child held the child, and took out a bag of diapers from his bag, and the two retreated to the garbage bin at the bus stop to change the child. At this time, the bus came, and the child's father looked at the bus helplessly: it seemed that he had to wait for the bus after work. The two of them were busy, and their father wrapped up the diapers he had just changed and joked: "What a golden!" How many pieces are brewed in one soak! Fortunately, I bought it at a discount, otherwise I would have to pull a few more bubbles of to make our family poor! After saying that, he threw the diaper into the trash. The husband and wife looked at each other and smiled, and continued to wait at the bus stop.

seems to be a simple scene, but it shows the current price of goods. What can I do if I don't work? All have to live.

Nowadays, the vast majority of people have gradually lost their freedom, they are bound by work and systems, and they are busy and living for work, mortgages, car loans, children's milk powder, diapers, toys, firewood, rice, oil and salt. Invisibly reduced to a slave to money.

In my opinion, it is not that freedom and work cannot coexist, but depending on what kind of industry you are in, it is not that office workers who work from 9 to 5 all day are not free of freedom, at least after work and before they go to work the next day, of course, overtime is another matter.

Freedom is not about doing whatever you want, but not doing what you don't want to do. I haven't figured out what I'm going to do yet, and I really don't know what else I don't want to do besides making money, but the way to earn money is my biggest problem, I don't want to go to work, but I still want to make money, and it's contradictory.

I've heard the term freelancer. In the past, I only had a one-sided understanding of the meaning of freelancing, I thought that freelancing was to do what I liked and could support my own life, but later I realized that the so-called freelancers are also doing the work they are better at, nothing more than not being governed by the system, managing themselves by themselves, and getting rid of the management of the "organization". Freelancers all have certain knowledge and skills, as well as the ability to survive in society.

I've been wondering whether the "beggars" in the society now belong to freelance professions, but soon the answer was negative, after all, beggars are also divided according to geography, power, etc., beggars have their own set of management systems, since there is a management system, there must be a relationship between superiors and subordinates, there are classes between superiors and subordinates, there will always be people who will sit back and enjoy their success, and there will always be people who will take advantage of the fire. Nowadays, the begging industry has evolved, except for the basic ragged clothes, and now the swagger on the street, such as I lost my money, I can't go home, I haven't eaten yet, can you give me some money to buy a bread or something. The list goes on and on.

I have encountered this kind of thing, I was walking back from work this day, and I was greeted by two young girls, the older ones were in their teens, and the younger ones were only three or four years old. At this time, an older man came up to me and stopped me, saying that he was out of town, lost with his family, not only could not contact his family, but also had not eaten for a day, so he gave some money to buy something to eat.

The first reaction in my head was that in these years, I used children to deceive people's kindness, and I decided to fight to the end, not because the little girls made me angry, but what was behind them.

"How many days have you been lost at home?" I asked with a fake wry.

"Hmm...... Maybe three or four days! The girl said with a slurrel.

"Why don't you go to the police and ask the police uncle to help you?" It's been three or four days, how are you going to eat? I asked again, smirkingly.

"We...... We didn't call, we just had a meal...... Well, that's it, when we meet a good person, someone gives us money! The girl spoke a little incoherently, and kept looking around.

"Well, I'll call the police, and wait for the police to come and see how they can help you find your family!" As he spoke, he took out his mobile phone and pretended to be on the phone, and beckoned to the little girl: "Let's go, uncle will buy you food!" ”

"No, no, uncle! We don't eat it! The little girl said as she pulled the younger child and ran away.

I don't know why I turned to this topic, this should be regarded as a model for begging for industry upgrading, and there are still managers behind them. These people may also come out to do a kind of "work" of cheating and begging for a living. I rambled on all this and just thought that begging shouldn't be freelance anymore.

Freedom is not proportional to money. You work most of your time for money, and if you don't work, you're free, but at the same time, you're getting farther and farther away from food and clothing.
