[Explanation] After returning home, Ran Guanghui discussed with his family that his son who was in junior high school helped him register on his mobile phone and applied to the merchant to become an "infantry" takeaway. The platform sent the post-95 boy He Huayun as a "master" and explained how Take orders and deliver orders.
