What did they choose to sell? Some sold newspapers, some chose bottled water, some sold environmentally
friendly shopping bags and bamboo baskets.
Hu Qing's team decided to sell some useful books in front of the Children Activity Center. They thought parents
would like to buy the books for their children. But unfortunately, they met urban management officers(域管). The
officers asked them to leave. "We played hide-and-seek (捉迷藏) with the officers for the whole morning ," said
Hu. "Finally we had to give up."
Wang Bing and her team sold ice cream in a square. They didn't meet any officers. But few people were interested
in what they were selling. The team then put up a board saying "For Country Kids". It worked.
More people came to their stall (小摊). A foreigner even gave them 100 yuan. "He didn't want any change. He said
he wanted to help the children," said Wang. "We were touched." Later that day they gave the 100 yuan and more to
the "Project Hope" office.
Meng Zhaoxiang and his team were luckier. They sold all their cakes in four hours, spending 39.5 yuan and getting
back 80 yuan. They made 40.5 yuan. "It was not easy to make money," said Meng. "Some people just looked. Others
just tasted but didn't buy. Now I know how hard it is for our parents to make money we need to lead happy lives."
