The classmates opposite just listened to her opening remarks and were dumbfounded. They were shocked by her and said: "Yingying, 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 have never thought there was anything shameful about her father's profession. Every profession has value. However, it is true that her family is looked down upon by people around her.
Truck drivers and other professions should also be treated in different grades. They can be roughly divided into small self-employed people who buy their own cars and use them, wage earners who do not have their own cars and help others with transportation, and small bosses who open their own transportation companies.
No one dares to look down on a small boss who has a fleet of more than ten vehicles and a fixed parking lot, and has self-built suburban farmhouses and other assets worth more than one million.
Drivers who help people drive 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. As a result, he lost everything after several car accidents. The ultimate reason why her father was looked down upon was because he had no money. Because he had no money and no education.
She could think of herself as noble, and her father's character was a bit like Ah Q's spiritual victory method, so he was eventually laughed at.
This is also one of the reasons why the medical profession is regarded as wealthy.
After explaining the calculation rules clearly to the classmates, I then explained the volume of the goods to the classmates: "I just estimated that the goods to be transported by my friend's company are about more than one hundred cubic meters."
"What kind of car do you need for over 100 cubic meters? Is a van enough?" asked several students across the street.
If a classmate had come here in person to take a look, he would never have said that it was enough to find a van. It was precisely because what he was looking for was not an ordinary pickup truck that it was temporarily difficult to find the van.
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 use a calculator to calculate." Not familiar with this industry, several students quickly called a timeout and took the calculator to calculate. This calculation shocked them: What? Dozens of cars are needed.
A van? Can a van only hold so little stuff?
"Yingying, how big is your friend's company?"
A group of classmates finally realized that they were as shocked by her small warehouse appearance as she was, and realized how modest Wu Lizuan was on weekdays.
"We all thought she was just a tea person. So wasn't she?"
"Yingying, your friend is just like you."
"You can usually be more high-profile, okay?"
“How big is your friend’s warehouse?”
It seems that the classmate has no concept of the volume of things. Unlike her, she used to load and unload goods with her father in the city when she was a child, so she has these intuitive mathematical concepts in her mind.
This is the reason why some skilled workers privately laugh at some students who study rotely. When students are studying in school, they only know how to do math on paper with a pen, and have no sense of the digital level of real objects. As a result, the designed patterns are used by factory workers to make products.
When something is made and the real thing is found to be too big or too small, it makes people laugh.
A group of classmates suddenly realized: Hey, classmate Xie had a good sense of numbers when he was a surgeon. The reason can be traced back to this?
