(Minghui.org) It was getting colder, so fewer people were leaving their homes, and the streets were deserted. Those outside looked like they were in a rush, and it was harder to clarify the truth face to face.

I walked to a street with rows of convenience stores. I wanted to buy some steamer cloth (cheesecloth). I entered a store and the owner was the only person inside. He asked me what I wanted to buy. “I want to buy a piece of steamer cloth,” I responded. “I’m going to grow bean sprouts myself. Do you think the bean sprouts they sell are safe to eat?”

“No, they use growth hormones,” he replied. “Your idea is great. Why didn’t I think of that!”

We talked about other harmful foods. From there, I steered the conversation to Falun Dafa, including the self-immolation hoax. I helped him to quit the Chinese Communist Party’s (CCP) Youth League and Young Pioneers. I also talked about the proper conduct for doing business: How one should be kind to customers, be tolerant and forgiving, and that harmony brings good fortune. The owner was a young man. He was surprised to learn that there were still Falun Dafa practitioners around and that what Dafa taught was so good.

After purchasing a piece of cheesecloth, I left and entered another convenience store. The owner there was alone, browsing on his cell phone. As I greeted him, I said, “It’s so cold outside. Lucky you’re indoors.”

“Business is not going well,” he commented.

I replied, “Our hard earned money goes into corrupt officials’ pockets, and companies have made billions of dollars from fake vaccines. But people are still getting infected. I myself am losing hair after getting the vaccine!

“The pandemic is a warning and punishment from Heaven. Let me tell you a way to keep safe.” After I talked about Falun Dafa, he agreed to quit the Youth League and Young Pioneers. I also told him to recite “Falun Dafa is good, Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good.”

After purchasing a second piece of cheesecloth, I entered another convenience store. And after talking with the store owners, they quit the CCP as well.

I entered the fourth store and bought my fourth piece of cheesecloth. Several customers came in, and the owner went to deal with them, so I did not get a chance to tell him the facts about Dafa. I will look for another chance some other time.

I bought four pieces of cheesecloth in four stores and helped four store owners quit the Party. I think this is a good method for clarifying the truth—do not buy everything at once. Buying things separately can create more opportunities to save more people.

Reaching Out to Security Guards

When I approached the gate of a residential complex, I glanced into the security cubicle by the gate and thought, “Please let the security guard come out, so I can tell him the truth about Dafa.”

The security guard indeed came out. I chatted with him about corruption, and he started to curse the CCP. He said that he was a farmer and, in his hometown, he could only earn 180 yuan a month, which was not even enough to cover a medical bill for a cold, so he had to work as a guard. He complained that farmers nowadays can’t earn a living growing crops. He agreed with everything I told him about Dafa and quit the CCP using his real name.

I planned to visit again the following week to talk to another security guard. When I returned, it was indeed a different security guard on duty. It was a cold day, and the guard was sitting inside playing on his cell phone. Seeing that he had no intention of coming out, I thought of an excuse, pushed open the door, and went in.

I asked him about the housing prices in the community. We ended up talking about a lot about different things, from falling real estate prices to migrant workers. He also came from the countryside and was very down-to-earth. When I talked about how Falun Dafa teaches people to be good, he agreed with everything I said. Since his family had been labeled “counter-revolutionaries” when he was growing up, he had very negative feelings about the CCP and had never joined any of its affiliated organizations.

After leaving the complex, I stopped at the security cubicle of another residential complex across the street. I helped the guard quit the Youth League and the Young Pioneers.

Talking to Roadside Vendors

A truck was parked at the west end of the farmer’s market, and a man in his 50s was selling pumpkins and radishes. It was cold, and he had very few customers. I greeted him, saying, “The weather is cold, and it’s tough for business.”

“No matter how cold it gets, I still have to try to sell what I grow,” he replied with a sigh.

“Earning money is important, but even more so is your safety.” I then talked about the floods, earthquakes, and extreme high temperatures that occurred in 2024, “The pandemic has never stopped and there will be another major outbreak. Because of the CCP, people’s hearts have gone bad and Heaven will punish the Party.

“When people joined the CCP, Youth League, or the Young Pioneers, they swore to dedicate their lives to it and become a part of it, so they have to bear its sins. We work hard to earn a living, and we are not corrupt officials. We should annul that oath from the bottom of our hearts and reclaim our lives, as well pay respect to the gods and Buddhas who will bless us when disasters strike.” He agreed with me and quit the Youth League.

At the gate of my community, there was an elderly man making and selling pancakes. He was fast and skillful. I bought a pancake from him and exclaimed, “It’s so cold, and you are doing this hard work! But these days, the urban management officers are chasing us away.”

He replied, “They caught me the other day and fined me 500 yuan.”

“You are working hard, and yet you are being treated like you’re a thief, while those corrupt officials continue to get off scot-free without any worries.”

The pancake seller was grateful for my understanding and sympathy, and he agreed to quit the Youth League and Young Pioneers.

Another man was selling cabbages, so I went over to him and said, “You work so hard on such a cold day!” He said he had to make a living. I added, “It’s good that you have work to do. Many college graduates can’t find a job nowadays.”

He told me that his son had graduated from Tsinghua University and used to earn 10,000 yuan a month, but his salary had reduced to 7,000. He expressed negative opinions about the current state of affairs and readily quit the Youth League and Young Pioneers.

A Russian goods store had just opened next to the supermarket. I bought some food from there and entered the supermarket carrying a bag with the Russian store logo. When I saw a customer sitting alone, I approached him and pointed at my bag and said that Russian food had no additives. I complained that China’s toxic food is infamous. He nodded, saying that the CCP harmed its own people. I was then able to advise him to quit the CCP.

Conclusion

I’ve noticed a lot of changes recently. People are waking up and have become aware of the side effects of vaccines, economic downturn, harmful foods, etc. They’re also very resentful of the officials in power. These people have experienced the hardships and psychological pressure firsthand, so they readily accept the truth about Dafa and quit the Party.

I will overcome any obstacles and continue to study the Fa well and help Master save more people in the limited time remaining.
