Preface.
In the seventies and eighties of the last century, China was just in a state of development, and people at that time lived a very frugal life! Therefore, at that time, there were many craftsmen with extremely high skills, and these people came into being, and they would do what the people needed, which can be said to be very cost-effective! Their appearance made it possible for the common people to do more with little money in that era!
However, in today's prosperous and developed era, the emergence of many new things has gradually replaced their status, making these old businesses gradually disappear in the eyes of everyone, let us look back on the years in the next time, and see what these disappearing old lines are, if you have seen more than three of these old lines, it can only mean one thing, that is, you have begun to get old.
The old line that is gradually disappearing is a pig maker.
In the past, plowing pigs in the countryside is a rare craft, there may be many people who don't understand what it means to plow pigs, ploughing pigs means sterilizing pigs, and the pigs will be disposed of by the *** official on him! At this time, some people will definitely be curious, why do pigs have to be neutered? Isn't it good to let them eat and drink well and give birth to piglets? Let's move on.
Before the word plough pig appeared, these pigs were very thin and small, and they were not at all the fat pigs that we can see in our time, why is this? This is because the pig is a creature, his estrus period is particularly restless, although at that time he also eats food, but these foods are not transformed into meat, but into vitality, and every year in the time of the pig estrus period is particularly much! In this way, the pigs raised by the common people are very thin!
This itself raised pigs to raise them for meat, but as a result, these pigs are not honest, and they don't grow meat after eating grain. So at this time, the pig plougher was born in response to the needs of the people! At that time, they walked the streets and alleys, who planned to raise fattening pigs, they would hand them over to their own homes, let him do sterilization surgery, do sterilized pigs, even if they have more estrus, there is nothing to use, still can't turn over any waves, so these pigs they can only honestly eat and grow meat, since then, the pigs raised by the people are fat and strong, can grow a lot of meat a year, at this time there are pig makers to help these fat pigs to slaughter, they have the ability to cut pigs, It's not a problem to dissect pigs, so their status in those years was unusually high!
However, with the development of time, these pig cutters have lost their previous status, the reason is that there are many high-tech products in this era, and there is no need to go through the streets and alleys by them, so now at this time the pig cutters have disappeared from the public's field of vision.
The old line that is gradually disappearing should be tinkered.
In the seventies and eighties of the last century, what industry was the most important for the people? That must be the tinker, the people of that era were very frugal! A pot can be used for many, many years, but don't forget that there was no induction cooker in that era, some were just stoves, no matter what pot he burned on the fire for so many years, there will definitely be water leakage, this time reflects the importance of the pot tinker, as long as the pot is taken over, and the pot repairer repairs it, then it can continue to be used for many years, most people in that era are like this, who will not be rich at that time to change a pot casually!
Therefore, the tinker of that era was a very important industry for the people, every household has a pot, no one can guarantee that there will be no problems with their pot, and after there is a problem, no one will say to directly change a pot, but to find a tinker, let the family repair it, how to repair the pot is more affordable than buying one, so the status of the tinker at that time is very high!
However, with the change of the times, there are now all kinds of pots on the market, the quality of these pots is much stronger than back then, there are few problems that have appeared before, and now the lives of the people have become better, sometimes even if the pot is broken, they will not have the idea of repairing the pot, but to change to a new one, in the eyes of the current people, it is too troublesome to repair a pot, and the time is also very long, it is more convenient to change a pot directly, so in this era there is no figure of the pot tinker.
The old line that is gradually disappearing is a face wringer.
Face tattoo artist I think many of you have not heard of his existence, of course, it is not excluded that some people think that the face tattoo artist is a tattoo artist, there is no connection between the two, let's take a look at what is called a face tattoo artist in the next time.
The industry of the face tattoo artist is dedicated to repairing people's faces, whenever a girl gets married in that era, it is when the face tattoo artist works, it was not like now, there were not so many cosmetics before, only some blush, rouge powder and other simple makeup materials, and at that time when the girls got married, they naturally wanted to show their most beautiful side, after all, this was the big day of the people, so at that time the face tattoo artist began to work!
Their main job is to take two threads, to get around on the bride's face, before getting will sprinkle a layer of light powder on it, so that the purpose is to be able to reduce some pain in the New Year when trimming, improve some silkiness, and the main role of their two threads is to remove the hair on the bride's face, this way can make the bride's face very silky, it can be said that it is the most perfect medical beauty at that time, so the status of this face tattoo artist at that time is also surprisingly high, After all, there are many girls who get married every year, and if they get married, they must marry beautifully, so face tattooers were very popular at that time!
However, decades have passed, the industry has ushered in great changes, the root of which is because in this era, too much high-tech has come out, these high-tech can completely replace the work content of the face tattoo artist, and in this era, the girls become beautiful will not only be limited to removing the hair on the face, they will invite makeup artists to make up, after all, after painting makeup, the girls will become more beautiful, if it is you, will you choose makeup or face tattoo artist? I think the answer is obvious, everyone must choose more beautiful! Therefore, in today's era, face tattooers have lost their former glory, and gradually their industry has disappeared from the public's field of vision.
The old line of shoe-shiners who is gradually disappearing.
I think you're no stranger to the shoe-shiner, and I'm sure you've heard a song called "shoe-shine", and the main character of this song is the shoe-shiner!
When the last century just began to develop, leather shoes also spread to our country with the times, at that time many people liked the appearance of leather shoes, after all, he wore a special face, so at that time a profession was born, he was a shoe shiner!
The main job of these shoe-shiners is to help people come and go to shine their shoes, these people have no time to brush their shoes, in this case, they will find a shoe-shiner to help themselves shine their shoes, after all, the price is right and very fast, after the shoe shiner polishes the shoes, the shoes will return to the original dark and shiny time, so at that time many people at the bottom will take the shoes as their part-time job, in that era, their appearance did solve the urgent needs of many people, Who wouldn't want to wear a pair of swarthy and shiny leather shoes to work? Therefore, at that time, these shoe-shiners would also have a small income!
However, with the development of time, more and more high-tech products appeared, in this era, people only need those shoe brushes with a little leather shoe polish to make the leather shoes brush black and shiny, and the average person will not choose to wear leather shoes when there is nothing to do, so the shoe shiner industry has gradually disappeared in the eyes of everyone, and they are rarely seen in this era.
The old line of people who are gradually disappearing is a nail scaleman.
Before the advent of electronic scales, our country has always used rod scales, don't look at its shape, but there is a lot of knowledge in it, let's look down.
When the electronic scale did not come out, the rod scale is the most common weighing tool for the people, it can be said that some small traders and hawkers eat guys, but the production of this rod scale is very particular, the first thing is to ensure the quality of the wood, the rod scale made of good wood is a test and an accurate, if there is a problem with the wood, the same rod scale will also have a problem, so this industry is very particular about materials!
The second is the technique, this rod scale has to be made by hand, first of all, it is polished into the shape of the head and tail, and then it is carefully depicted step by step each scale, after getting these things, it will begin to process, the scale button, copper skin these things must be perfectly processed to the rod scale, otherwise the side will affect the accuracy of the rod scale weighing, and finally in the inlay of those wires into the level of the engraved scale, and finally in the oil polishing, after this many procedures, a new rod scale will come to the world!
It is precisely because of the serious work attitude of these nail scalemen that these rod scales can measure their weight perfectly when measuring things! So a good nail scaler would be respected by many people in that era! Of course, the income of the nail scale master at that time was also one top and one high! At that time, nail scalemen were able to sell a lot of rod scales almost every day, so the income of these nail scalers at that time was also very high, which was all earned by people's hard work, right?
However, with the development of the times, more and more science and technology appear in our daily life, science and technology to change life this sentence is not groundless, it was the advent of electronic scales, so that the rod scale disappeared from everyone's eyes, after all, the electronic scale is not only convenient, and he measured out the things fast and accurate, it is simply a rolling rod scale! Therefore, there were fewer and fewer people who used rod scales in that era, and in this case, the nail scales could not support themselves at all, so these nail scales gradually gave up this industry, so at this time, the rod scales disappeared faintly from the perspective of everyone.
Epilogue. How many of the above five disappearing old industries have you seen? Have you used any of these things before? When you see these things, do you think back to the old days? Now that these industries are slowly disappearing from the public's field of vision, will you miss them?
And these old lines are not just as simple as the old lines for us, they carry our memories at that time, whenever I see them, I always think of my own past, how carefree we were at that time, I really miss it, I miss not only myself at that time, but also these things that gradually disappear around everyone.
