Because they are too young, very few people would like to hire them.
They have been waiting for more than 3 houres, but there's still no business for them.

You three may club together.
Let's go.
Will you still come here after the Spring Festival?
No.
Then where are you going?
Go to Fujian

Making bricks.
3:45 p.m.
Yang Guo and his companions rush off to the coal station
To earn the supper and lodging expenses.
A few days later,it will be the Spring Festival.
It's a far, far and unachievable dream for child haulers like Yang Guo
To happily spend the (Chinese) New Year in a warm and harmonious family which is full of love...
