The group of classmates opposite just listened to her opening remarks and were dumbfounded. They were shocked by her and said, "Yingying, do you know everything?"
The female top student in their class is so scary, she understands all these things.
Xie Wanying reminded her classmates: "As you know, my dad is a truck driver."
I never thought there was anything shameful about her father's profession. Every profession has value. It's just that it's true that her family is looked down upon by people around her.
Truck drivers and other professions should also be treated in different grades. It can be roughly divided into small self-employed people who buy and use their own cars, wage earners who don’t own cars and help others with transportation, and small business owners who open their own transportation companies.
No one dares to look down on the small boss, who has a fleet of more than ten vehicles, a fixed parking lot, and self-built suburban farmhouses with assets exceeding one million.
Drivers who help people drive sports cars are called wage earners. They earn as much money as they drive for the boss, and they also save some gas money and food money on the road. What they earn is hard-earned money. The money they receive is like a salary without having to bear business risks.
Her father was the kind of person who tried hard to advance from a wage earner to a boss, but suffered heavy losses along the way.
When Xie Changrong was at his most glorious, he took out loans to buy three trucks with the intention of forming a small fleet. However, he lost everything after being involved in several car accidents. The ultimate reason why her father was looked down upon was because he had no money. Because she had no money and no academic qualifications to consider herself noble, and her father's personality was a bit like Ah Q's spiritual victory method, she was eventually laughed at.
This is also a big reason why the doctor profession is regarded as wealthy.
I explained the calculation rules clearly to my classmates, and then told my classmates about the volume of the goods: "I just estimated that the goods to be transported in my friend's company are about over one hundred cubic meters."
"What kind of car do I need for over 100 cubic meters? Is a van enough?" asked several students across from me.
If a classmate came here to take a look in person, he would definitely not be able to say that finding a van is enough. It was precisely because what we were looking for was not an ordinary pickup truck that it was temporarily difficult to find the vehicle.
Xie Wanying told the students: "The common small vans on the market can only carry 2.6 cubic meters of cargo, while medium-sized vans can load 4.5 cubic meters."
"Wait a minute, let's get a calculator and do some calculations." Not familiar with this industry, several students quickly called a timeout and started doing calculations with their calculators. This calculation shocked them: What? Do you want dozens of vans? Can a van only hold so much stuff?
"Yingying, how big is your friend's company?"
A group of classmates finally realized that they were just as surprised by her small warehouse appearance as she was, and realized how humble Wu Lizuan was on weekdays.
"We all thought she was just a tea-leaf giver. So she wasn't?"
"Yingying, your friend is just like you."
"You can usually keep a high profile, okay?"
“How big is your friend’s warehouse?”
It seems that the students have no idea about the size of things. Unlike her, who had these intuitive mathematical concepts in her mind when she was a child, she had been loading and unloading goods with her father in the city.
This is the reason why some technical workers secretly ridicule some students for learning by rote. When students study in school, they only know how to count on paper with a pen, and have no sense of the digital level of real objects. As a result, the designed patterns were used by factory workers to make the products. After the products were made, they found that the real objects were too big or too small, which made people laugh.
A group of classmates suddenly realized: Hey, classmate Xie had a good sense of numbers when he was a surgeon. Can the reason be traced back to this?
