the author of the Ji'nan times: Cao Cao
14 years ago, Zhao Yanxin decided to be a river cleaner because of the innate feelings of water. In the past 14 years, many cleaners have been tired of job hopping, but he chose to stay behind.
he is now 61 years old, and he takes out one day a week, strapped his waist with a rope, cleaned the rubbish down the 5 meters of the river wall, and sometimes hurt his head by the rubbish thrown by others. But he could not bear to leave. He said that the spring of Ji'nan had fed him this simple and happy fish.
white haired old man in the river "
in April 4th, the reporter saw the cleaners of the sewerage service center in the Tianqiao District on the seashore of West Wei Zi, who was preparing to salvage the river with his colleague Ma qingno.
Zhao Yanxin is 61 years old and has grey hair. He stopped an electric tricycle on the shore, tied one end of the rope to the electric tricycle, and tied the other end to his waist. The river wall is 5 meters high and very steep. He grabbed the rope in a slanting way and pushed his foot against the river wall, tilting himself to the bottom of the river.
followed by Ma qingnuo, 61, went down to the bottom of the river in the same way. Seeing the two old men walking on the wall, a standing boy could not help but thumbs up.
two people put the garbage in the river into the bag, then use the rope to refer to the shore and put it in the electric tricycle. Zhao Yanxin told reporters that every week he had to clean up the West Wei Zi trench with Ma Qing Nuo, every time to clean up the whole day.

from childhood, love water to be a good cleaner
Zhao Yanxin is a remote wall man, 14 years ago to the Tianqiao District Drainage Management Service Center as a channel cleaner. At the beginning, his salary was 400 yuan, which was similar to that of other workers. Today, his salary is 1200 yuan, much less than that of other workers. In the past 14 years, the river cleaners have been moving on and out. Only he has been sticking to it. He said he was very emotional. The leaders and colleagues of the Tianqiao District Drainage Management Service Center were very good to the cleaners of the river. He was not willing to leave.
in fact, he had deep affection for water since he was young. When he was little, he loved swimming and liked catching fish and shrimp in the river. When he grew up, he was an electrician at the rural water lift station. Zhao Yan said, "I grow rice and make the Yellow River rice. To tell you the truth, I love water very much. I came here to work because I can continue to work with water. He said that the water bred him, he must be able to supply water as a good cleaner, it is a reward.
small,
head was bruising and don't want the river to be clear
over the years, fewer and fewer people are able to get the garbage, and Zhao Yanxin is very anxious. 3 years ago, he met the sanitation worker who was cleaning the road. "To clean the road with dust, so as to clean up the river with me. What shall I do, what do you do?" Zhao Yanxin used "brotherly sentiment" to "oppose" and let Ma qingnoo and he "get out of the water".
Zhao Yanxin proudly said that the sewerage service center of the Tianqiao District has 21 channel cleaners, and only he and Ma Qingnuo dared to clean up the garbage in the river. This is both a living and a technological activity. It is dangerous, and not everyone can do it. "There are often passers-by saying to us," these old guys are like monkeys. " He said.
, however, Zhao Yanxin felt guilty about "instilling" Ma Nuo Nuo. Why? Because river rubbish is mobile, and it is very difficult to salvage. Many rivers are smelly and have a certain degree of damage to the body. "But someone must insist on doing this, otherwise the river will get dirtier and dirtier. As long as someone clears up, the river will be clear. " He is full of confidence in the future.
Zhao Yanxin and Ma qingnuo wore their caps while they were working. Zhao Yanxin explained: "people throw rubbish into the river with their hands. When we work in the river, we often hurt our heads. One day, I was hit three times by the garbage. In order to protect our heads, we had to wear a hat. Garbage on the road only pollute a place. The rubbish in the river is polluted by all the way, and it is more dangerous. We have a little hope that we should not throw rubbish into the river again. Zhao Yanxin has not yet planned to retire yet. He said he was in good health. When he could no longer tie the rope to salvage the garbage, he would go back to the countryside to provide for the aged.
