Awakening People While Doing Maintenance and Repair Work

(Minghui.org) Because I’m skilled in plumbing and electrical work, I organized a maintenance and repair team made up of friends and practitioners, and we began looking for customers. Our goal was not to make a lot of money, but to help others and tell them about Falun Dafa and the ongoing persecution.

We did work for a man who was a township Communist Party committee secretary, and was later transferred to the county as the director. After completing our work, we told him and his family about Falun Dafa and the persecution. Although he acknowledged it, he had reservations when we urged him to renounce the Chinese Communist Party (CCP).

He said, “My family works within the CCP system and is paid by it. Without it, we would not survive.”

The other practitioners and I had a discussion about his situation, and decided to send forth righteous thoughts to eliminate the bad elements behind him and his family.

When I prepared the invoice I deducted 500 yuan from the labor costs, and only charged him for the materials, and he was very touched. I explained the benefits of quitting the CCP, and emphasized that it was to sever ties to the CCP in a symbolic way. I offered to be the witness and help him quit online. I reassured him that it was safe. This alleviated his concerns, and his entire family renounced the CCP.

Our team gradually grew in size, and our scope of work expanded significantly. We started with small-scale repairs for workplaces and households, and we now provide services to the county industrial park, helping enterprises with their subcontracted projects, and assisting factories to resolve technical renovations, equipment installations, and maintenance issues.

We had over 30 team members at one point. Our main purpose is to awaken people, and not make big money. With this goal in mind, our team members interact with people through our work, clarify the truth to them, and help them renounce the CCP.

We have become increasingly successful in recent years for the following reasons: First, our work quality is superior to that of other teams. Next, we do not haggle over the price. And last, but not least, we put the other party’s interests above ours when doing our job. Sometimes when I’m out on the streets, people who recognize me call me a “good person,” because they know I practice Falun Dafa.

When our team grew larger, we needed to hire a team leader to manage the workers. Someone recommended a man named Deng who was a village official in the countryside. He was very charismatic, and worked for me for over a year. I told Deng about Falun Dafa and helped him withdraw from the CCP.

His family was once very wealthy, but his son became addicted to online gambling and was deep in debt. After using all the savings he accumulated over the years to pay off his son’s gambling debts, he still owed 800,000 yuan. The couple had no choice but to look for work so they could help their son pay off his debts.

I gave the couple many truth clarification booklets, and they benefited greatly after reading them. Their son found a high-paying job as a chef at a restaurant, bringing the family’s monthly income to nearly 20,000 yuan. Deng brought people from his village to work for our team, and told them about Falun Dafa and how he benefited from it.

The village CCP branch secretary recently invited him to attend the village’s new rural construction meeting, and he spoke at the meeting, saying, “My current boss (referring to me) is a Falun Dafa practitioner. He is a good person and does his job well. If you all do things based on the principles Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance, you will be able to build the new rural area properly. The problem is you are all engaged in some sort of fraudulent practice, and have misappropriated government funds.” He went on to criticize the village officials.

He told the workers about it the next day, and I was glad that he knew what Dafa was about. His speech in the meeting indicates he learned to discern right from wrong, and good from bad.
