Zhejiang Online, December 20 (see Xi reporter Yang Bo) At 6:50 a.m. on December 20, the temperature was minus 6 °C, at the intersection of South Ring Road and Torch Avenue in Binjiang District, Hangzhou, a green van slowly stopped at the express delivery point. A gust of cold wind penetrated into the neck, making the skin stiff with raw cold, and the two couriers in orange-green warm suits rubbed their hands together and sighed, and then unloaded the courier neatly.
Recently, affected by the low temperature and cold wave, Hangzhou has entered the "freezing" mode, but the couriers stick to the front line and make every effort to ensure the smooth delivery network.

"Under normal circumstances, we have to arrive at the delivery department at 7 o'clock in the morning, and after the series of steps of unloading, unpacking, identification, sorting and loading, the delivery will start at about 9 o'clock. Liu Qing, a courier at the Higher Education Investment Department of Binjiang District, Hangzhou City, China Post, told reporters that when there is a lot of goods, the wheels will be deflated by almost half. Liu Qing is 28 years old this year, has been engaged in the express delivery industry for more than 6 years, and he has his own experience in the face of low temperature and cold waves. "Wearing too many clothes to do loading and unloading work, covering sweat inside, it is easy to catch a cold when it is cold and hot, and it will be much more convenient to wear a little less in the case of keeping warm. As he spoke, he exhaled a mist from his mouth.

The Dongguan community is the key area for Liu Qing to deliver, and he travels at least twice a day. Nearly 200 parcels of express delivery, delivered within 3 hours, this is Liu Qing's task this morning, the average delivery time is less than 1 minute for each express. This new rural community of about 560 households does not have express stations or lockers, which means that he needs to deliver door-to-door, which undoubtedly increases the difficulty. Not long after the delivery began, the reporter was already shivering from the cold. Although Liu Qing was wearing gloves, the reporter noticed that his exposed fingers and ears were already red from the cold, and his skin was wrinkled and chapped.

"The first 300 households were built in order, and they were all relatively easy to deliver in one direction, while the location of the last 200 households was not only chaotic, but also scattered. Liu Qing told reporters that the road here was only repaired a week ago, and some places could not get in when it was sent before, so they could only trot and send it. When following Liu Qing's delivery, the reporter observed that the road conditions here are very complicated, but he can accurately locate every delivery, and the location of the express delivery is agreed with the residents, it seems that there is muscle memory, some only need to brake, a shout, and then bend over on the seat, quickly put at the door, and some are to make a phone call, and then wait for the residents to open the door to pick up......

Liu Qing told reporters that the most feared thing about sending express delivery is the cold wave + rain, "The raincoat will not work, and the whole body will be soaked." When the wind blew, the cold wind was biting, the cool feeling was indescribable, and the whole muscle was stiff. "But no matter what the weather, they don't stop.

At 11:47 p.m., Liu Qing rushed back to the investment department, and his colleague Su Jie was busy sorting out the express mail to be sent in the afternoon. "How's your body? Liu Qing greeted. On December 18th, the rain and snow assisted all day, the temperature has been maintained around zero, and against the sleet, Su Jie completed the delivery of more than 600 express deliveries in a single day, just in order not to delay the user's receipt. "I'm afraid that the weather will be bad later, so try to deliver the pieces of the day. "It was 11 o'clock in the evening when Su Jie got off work, and it burned to more than 39 degrees that night," his hands were numb when he took the express, and the screen didn't move when he touched his mobile phone, and it was biting cold. ”

After going home to take cold medicine and take a hot bath, Su Jie quickly returned to work the next day after feeling that his body had recovered. When the reporter asked if he thought about taking a day off after catching a cold, Su Jie replied: "I haven't thought about this, I still have to do the work." Adding a sweater and wrapping a scarf, Su Jie continued to insist on being on the front line and doing his best to do his job.
