"Three Brothers" To Repair Shoes For 30 Years To Continue Thrifty And Old Business.

It's all over the streets of footwear. Today, as old people wear out, they will think of the "three brothers" in the old town.

His grandfather made shoes for himself, and his father made up for shoes for the PLA. Ji Lao San, Ji Lao Si and Ji Lao Wu 3 brothers strolled for 30 years in the old urban road. They continued diligently and diligently to promote this industrious and frugal old line.

Now, Ji Lao San has "retired", and Ji Lao Si and Ji Lao Wu are still tireless in repairing the nails every day.

"Now only a dozen pairs of shoes are repaired every day. In a time when materials are scarce, this business is booming, and a pair of cheap cheap shoes have been broken up and repaired by people until they are not shoe shaped.

At that time, we kept on working all day, from early to late, and there were still many people waiting in line to make up the shoes.

Ji Lao Wu said, "now is different. With the improvement of living standards, cheap shoes become almost disposable consumer goods. As long as they are slightly damaged, people will discard them and buy new ones.

Less and less people make up shoes.

In fact, many old shoes can be worn as long as they are mended.

In about 40 minutes, the reporter saw only a few female customers to repair the damaged shoes.

Ji Lao Wu said that there were many people here, but now there are fewer people living there.

But many of the old customers still take special shoes from the far away to make up.

More than 6 of the customers are women.

Because Chaoshan women have traditional frugal virtues.

Moreover, most women's leather shoes are very delicate in pursuit of fashion and beauty. Some of them are very thin, and some of them are very sharp. They are not very reliable.

The women who love beauty and thrifty take up the bad shoes that they can not wear for a long time.

No need to take a ruler, Ji Lao 4 used a shoe cutter to sharpen his shoes, and the shoes of a pair of leather shoes were as smooth as mirrors. He said that their family had passed on for three generations, but they could not be passed down again, because people would no longer need this line in modern cities.

Now that their children have grown up and are able to work to support their families, their brothers continue to supplement their shoes only to continue frugal virtue and kill time.
