The takeaway brother who stayed at the Gouzhuang site for a week helped customers purchase daily necessities for free. The little brother refunded all the tips. He said, "helping others is not for anything else, just for everyone's safety."

  "Under the epidemic, it's not easy for everyone, so I'll make a cameo to run errands, and the tips given by customers are refunded. It's not for anything else, just for everyone's safety, and to help others as much as I can in times of difficulty."

  Li Jinwei is the head of the Ele.me Hangzhou Gouzhuang Station. His site is the first standardized delivery station for takeaway riders in the country. He is also an active member of the party. In response to the call of the comprehensive party committee of the takeaway rider industry in Yuhang District, he took the initiative to volunteer.

  On April 5, the New Coronary Pneumonia Epidemic Prevention and Control Headquarters in Yuhang District, Hangzhou City issued a notice that his site was designated as a prevention area.

Stay behind or work from home?

Without hesitation, Li Jinwei and the other two brothers chose to stay, eat instant noodles, take cold showers, and stick to their posts.

Li Jinwei also took the initiative to help customers around the site to purchase daily necessities for free.

  How did Li Jinwei spend these days?

The following is his narration.

  My hometown is in Henan, and I came to Hangzhou in 2019 to start taking out food.

Three months later, he was promoted to stationmaster.

  In early 2020, the epidemic broke out.

As a front-line anti-epidemic post, my brother should be in the front.

I didn't go home for the New Year that year, and stayed at work.

  This time, I still choose to stay at the site.

  Our site is the first standardized delivery station for takeaway riders jointly built by the Provincial Market Supervision Bureau and Yuhang District. There are more than 30 brothers in total, and there are usually more than 1,000 orders per day. I can rest assured when I stay.

In fact, the conditions here are very good, there are sofas, reclining chairs, air conditioners, and kettles.

Some time ago, I stocked up a lot of instant noodles, just to burn some hot water bubbles, eat and drink, enough.

  To say it is inconvenient, maybe the only thing is to take a bath.

It's okay, just take a cold shower, rough guy.

  Why help customers buy necessities?

In fact, I didn't think too much, it was a natural move, mainly to feel sorry for those customers.

  Most of the people who order takeaways are young people. They are usually busy with work and must not have the habit of hoarding goods. Coupled with the sudden outbreak of the epidemic, many people are not prepared at home.

  A customer ordered fried rice, so I tried to call and ask if I wanted to help me buy something.

I can hear that the customer was a little surprised and very happy.

  In the past two days, I have helped you buy eight-treasure porridge, cornstarch, cigarettes and other daily necessities one after another. The things are not expensive. Some customers gave me tips and red envelopes, but I did not accept them.

  In times of difficulty, I try my best to help others, not for anything else, but for everyone's safety.

  Besides, I am now an active member of the party, and I want to serve the people more.

If you are also near our site, you can always contact us if you need it.

I'm here to help you whenever I can.

  Because the vast majority of delivery areas covered by the site are controlled, there are fewer merchants in business and fewer recent orders.

Now there are only more than 120 orders per day, only about one-tenth of the previous one.

But delivery is more difficult.

In the past, there were more people and more orders, and they could coordinate with each other. Today, only 4 little brothers stick to it, and the delivery time is longer than before.

  What was particularly touching was that the little brother on the outside even bought us a box lunch from outside and sent it to the fence of the prevention area, and we finally ate fresh food.

  So fast, I've been at the site for a week now.

Home brothers are not easy either.

Fortunately, everyone's mentality is okay.

I am 31 years old this year. Compared with everyone, I am a few years older. Sometimes I can’t help but reason with everyone in the group: The staff in government departments are really hard and not easy. We are all adults. When encountering difficulties, we must learn to face and overcome them bravely.

Most importantly, learn to take care of yourself.
