出租车司机常常在生意差时会耗很长时间,在高峰期反而提前收工,经济学家们对此表示不解。在企业云集的温州,司机们格外留心。在乘车高峰期,即便是拉了一位乘客,他们还会亮出“空车”字样,希望再拉上顺带的乘客多赚份钱。这样一来,只是记一次计价器,却赚了双份钱。 Taxi drivers often spend a lot of time when business is poor, but instead work early in the peak period. Economists are puzzled by this. Drivers are particularly careful in Wenzhou, where companies gather. At the peak of the ride, even if one passenger is pulled, they will show the words “empty car” and hope that they can pick up more passengers to make more money. In this way, only one meter was counted, but it earned double money.
