People walked past but few looked over.
Those who would come over would ask, "70,000 only? Isn't that too cheap? Are you a fake?"
"I'm not a fake! That's how I guarantee that it's the nation's lowest price. Have a look at my ID if you don't believe me," I said righteously, raising my card.
"Gou..?" they would usually mumble with a contemptuous look on their faces, before walking away.
I graduated last year and joined a clothes manufacturing factory that paid 3,000 a month.
My name instantly became a hot topic the moment I started work. After all, people with surnames that were not Li were extremely rare.
Within the next half a year, colleagues started asking if I was interested in becoming a surname changer.
"You're not a Li so why don't you do it? Gou aye, how unique! Surname changers can earn hundreds of thousands per order! It's much better than slogging away in here."
