Chinese Farmer Giving Away Free Turnips Plundered by Mob Chinese Farmer Giving Away Free Turnips Plundered by Mob by Fauna on Monday, December 5, 2011 http://img94.imageshack.us/img94/633...ufarmergiv.jpg From NetEase, QQ, & Mop: The over 80 mu of turnips grown by farmer Han Gang on his vegetable farm on the outskirts of Zhengzhou in Henan province yielded a bountiful harvest, but these roughly 1.5kg each turnips suffered from poor sales. Day after day, he contacted buyers, but the buyers would only offer a bulk purchasing price of only 4-5 fen per half kilogram. If people are hired to pick the turnips, he’d then have to spend even more money. After discussing with his family, he decided to stop trying to sell these turnips and instead give them away to the city’s residents for their consumption. Han Gang said: “If social welfare and charity organizations want them, I can give them priority.” http://img820.imageshack.us/img820/6...ufarmergiv.jpg Han Gang posted his idea online and news media from the provincial capital also published the information on November 25th. On the morning of 2011 November 26th, Han Gang’s turnip field was overrun by city residents there to pick turnips, with groups and groups of people carrying vegetable knives hacking turnips off, tossing aside those they didn’t like and bagging those they did to take home. http://img41.imageshack.us/img41/633...ufarmergiv.jpg For days, over ten thousand city residents came to the field to pick turnips. http://img820.imageshack.us/img820/6...farmergiva.jpg What Han Gang and his family did not expect was that some people even picked and took away the sweet potatoes he had planted. Given that he was unable to stop them, he could only ferret out the uncivilized behavior by immediately taking out the sweet potatoes that those people had put into their bags. http://img7.imageshack.us/img7/6337/...ufarmergiv.jpg Faced with an uncontrollable situation, Han Gang begged people to be merciful: “Auntie, sister, uncle, brother, leave me some, I still need to send my children to school!” http://img35.imageshack.us/img35/633...ufarmergiv.jpg November 26th, Zhengzhou, the cars and tricycles of the turnip pickers lined up for kilometers. http://img819.imageshack.us/img819/6...ufarmergiv.jpg November 26th, a police vehicle appears on Han Gang’s turnip field. http://img843.imageshack.us/img843/6...ufarmergiv.jpg Various different types of cars on the scene. http://img641.imageshack.us/img641/6...ufarmergiv.jpg A van that drove directly onto the turnip field, the young turnips run over into a mess. http://img846.imageshack.us/img846/6...ufarmergiv.jpg Using both big bags and small bags to take [the turnips] away. http://img24.imageshack.us/img24/633...ufarmergiv.jpg Riding a mountain bike to come pick turnips. http://img683.imageshack.us/img683/6...ufarmergiv.jpg Ruined sweet potatoes. http://img683.imageshack.us/img683/9...farmergivv.jpg Photo is of November 26th, of a city resident walking a dog on Han Gang’s turnip field. http://img40.imageshack.us/img40/633...ufarmergiv.jpg Photo is of November 26th, of Han Gang’s turnip field. http://img703.imageshack.us/img703/6...ufarmergiv.jpg November 26th, Han Gang’s son holding a turnip thrown away by city residents. |

give an inch and they take a mile? or something like that. |
This guy will never hold a charity again. I feel bad for the guy. The decent thing would've been to donate at least .50 cents per turnip. |
*sigh* and at the end of the day, the people will only ask themselves "but what did i do wrong?" "if he didn't want this mess he wouldn't have started it in the first place" |
Typical. They don't give a shit to other people's properties. "Give an inch and they take a mile". Exactly that. |

Chinese people!! Y U SO SELFISH! ლ(ಠ益ಠლ) |
this guy should've known better its bad enough having free stuff given here in canada but right in the thick of it in china? :fuckthatshit: i think his issue though is that it hit the news/radio and when that happens it doesnt matter if they're asian or not you're going to get raped by the crowd |
Reminds me of that guy who had a cruel prank pulled on him. Someone posted a Craigslist Ad saying his apartment is full of stuff that people were free to take. People showed up just emptying his apartment - and even had the audacity to just wave a printed copy of the CL ad when they were asked to stop. People have a mob mentality everywhere, it's not just China. |
I think we really need a dedicated china forum or Somthing because frankly I don't think people give two shits about retarded stories like these and all the rest posted?.. Happened in china? dgaf Posted via RS Mobile |
Why do people care about China when they don't even care about them selves? I swear the more and more of this stories I read about what happens thereI get more sick each day. |
No good deed goes unpunished. I feel sorry for the guy. Should have done things differently. China is fucked. |
people cant appreciate shit lol good on him, and fuck those annoying bastards |
There is a disturbing amount of racism in this thread. Tread carefully. |
^ but honestly a lot of these stereotypes are perfectly applicable to chinese people. i've been to places all over the world and i've yet to come across a race that's as selfish and ignorant as the chinese. all they care about is themselves and how to fuck the next person so they can step over them. of course there are exceptions but this is generally what i see, and i'm from mainland china myself lol. |
crazy asians lol |

mmm turnip juice |
