Jiang Qichen held a fake Mid-Autumn Festival street sweep at the Dajia Second Market and was warmly welcomed by the vendors

The voting for the nine-in-one general election at the end of the year will enter the last two months. On the second day of the Mid-Autumn Festival holiday, Vice President of the Legislative Yuan Jiang Qichen, who is running for mayor of Taichung, went to the Dajia Second Public Retail Market early this morning (26th) with city councilors Li Wenjie and Yang Qibang to sweep the streets and greet the vendors and purchasers. The group first went to the Chenghuang Temple to offer incense and pray for blessings, and then walked into the market. Many vendors enthusiastically shouted "frozen garlic" and "win with a high vote", and also presented white radish, which symbolized "good luck", in advance to wish them success.

Jiang Qichen said that the traditional market is an important place for the daily life of villagers. In addition to retaining the familiar human touch, it is also necessary to continue to improve the purchasing environment. He and local councilors worked together to fight for air conditioning for the Dajia Second Market, hoping to make vendors more comfortable when working and people buying vegetables, so that market services and the quality of life can be improved together.

During the holidays, the market was crowded with people buying goods. An 80-year-old grandma stopped by and held Jiang Qichen's hands to cheer him on. While sweeping the street, some people came up and touched Jiang Qichen's waist and praised him for "losing weight and having a good figure", which made everyone laugh.

Jiang Qichen also shared his street sweeping experience with online netizens through social live broadcast. In response to a message asking whether he lived in Xindian, Jiang Qichen said on the spot that he had been living in his hometown in Fengyuan and had commuted to North China since he became a public opinion representative; Xindian is his wife's natal home, clearly responding to the outside world's questions about his place of residence.

Jiang Qichen purchased the freshly baked "Liang Xiang Hao" (fried twins) on the spot, and while tasting it, he introduced the local copper plate delicacies to netizens. The live broadcast unexpectedly became a "eating broadcast". Jiang Qichen said that the market can best show the vitality of a city, and it is also a place to feel human feelings, listen to public opinion, and understand everyone's expectations for life and local development. In the future, he will continue to work with local people to strive for more construction and welfare for the villagers.
