In this world, death is an inevitable part of life, and funeral rituals are our final farewell to the deceased. However, in recent years,.
Today, we're going to unveil the shady scenes of these funeral homes and see how they make families say they can't afford to die.
Recently, a woman's father in Shiyan died.
She posted a video on the Internet, complaining about the funeral home's charging items. This video instantly resonated with tens of thousands of netizens, many of whom bluntly said that "not only can't live, but also can't afford to die", which is too expensive.
Judging from the charging items exposed by the woman, from the death of her father to the cremation box (urn) in the funeral home, the funeral home has set up various charging services, and there are even waiters holding credit card machines to promote services, and the charging standards are different for different services.
Share wreaths 180 a day, flowers 680, and firecrackers 100 a day
When you enter the funeral home, you will have to spend money on everything you encounter, wreaths, firecrackers, paper money, lanterns, and it is understandable to charge for these items, but the cost is not too expensive.
Shared wreaths can be reused, a day costs 180, it is simply a multi-profit, and flowers are more expensive, the charge is 680, the same online only about 200; there are also electronic firecrackers, a sound charge of 100 yuan, a charge can be used many times.
Four ingots 230, golden boy and jade girl 180, and a lantern 80
The condolences must be indispensable for some objects, the funeral home warmly provided ingots, paper money, incense and lanterns, the price of these items is also quite touching, four ingots 230, golden boy and girl 180, lantern 80.
The funeral home staff also warmly reminded that ingots should be placed in the urn, and not putting them will have an impact on the fortune of future generations.
The deceased is the greatest, and when ordinary people hear this, they will choose to buy it. After all, who is going to have trouble with their fortunes?
Golden Boy and Jade Girl
As long as you are willing to spend money, the funeral home can provide "one-stop" services to solve the problem for the family of the deceased in an all-round way.
The mourning hall starts at 10,000, and the cremation furnace is divided into high and low grades
If you want your relatives to walk decently, you need to put some thought into the arrangement of the mourning hall. Of course, you can also spend money for the funeral home to run it, and the fee starts at 10,000.
Then there is the cremation furnace, if you want to burn your relatives thoroughly, you can choose a high-end furnace, the cost is 800, and the ordinary furnace is 500.
I would like to ask if the high-end furnace can burn relics.
Urns 100-10000, cemeteries start at 5000
Finally, there are the urns and cemeteries. The funeral home provides a variety of options for the family of the deceased, from the most ordinary urn to the tens of thousands of yuan of "Five Cranes to the Summit" box, such as the urn in the picture below, the price is 12,600 each.
As long as the price is in place, even the golden silk nan wood box can be made.
The "Five Cranes Ascend to the Top" urn costs 12,600
According to the local standards set by Shiyan, the price of the cemetery is 5,250 yuan.
But the funeral home will not recommend such a tomb, because it is unprofitable. There are also many private cemeteries, which often charge tens of thousands of yuan, and the annual income of ordinary people cannot catch up with a small cemetery.
Standard charges
In addition to the above, there are many items that need to be charged, such as whether to lay a carpet at the door, whether to place an arch, there are different packages.
There are also 180 flags for funeral send-offs, and 136 for two umbrellas. There are also two grades of carrying the coffin, and the price of manpower or vehicle is also different.
It feels like the funeral home treats the dead as a business
The loss of loved ones is already very sad, and the funeral home's approach is even more unacceptable.
After a funeral, the cost can be as high as tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands.
If the price is clearly marked, it will be forgotten, and it will not stop the rich from doing a special job. What is infuriating is that the funeral home will guide the family step by step, making the family pay for the high service and achieve the purpose of earning a huge fee. This practice is disgusting.
really responded to that sentence, I can't afford to buy a house when I'm alive, I can't afford a funeral when I'm dead, and I've been contributing all my life from birth to death.
Finally, how do we deal with these shady scenes in funeral homes?
First of all, we need to strengthen the supervision of the funeral industry, establish sound laws and regulations, and severely punish illegal acts. Secondly, we should also increase the openness of society to death and funeral, so that more people can understand the rights and expenses in the funeral process, so that they can remain vigilant in the face of funeral home fees.
In short, exposing the shady scenes of funeral homes is not only to protect the rights and interests of family members, but also to establish a fair and transparent social environment. Let's work together so that everyone can be treated with dignity and fairness during the funeral process.
