Back at the hotel, Garawa also prepared to take Ye Chen to see the largest poor kiln in Mumbai.
There are nearly 2,000 large and small slums in Mumbai, and Dahavi is the largest. The area here is only 1.75 square kilometers, but the number of residents has reached one million.
The edge of the Dahawi area is located on the garbage dump.
The men living here squatted in twos and threes on the ground to bask in the sun. The puppies chased around among the "hills" formed by construction waste and domestic garbage, and the narrow and busy streets came out with damp smells. , This is the true status quo shown by India's "slum tourism".
Walking into the streets of Dahavi, you may trip over the open sewers on the street. The houses here are only 6 inches apart, and some houses even live in a family for four generations.
The houses in the slums are mostly divided into upper and lower floors, separated by rough wooden boards in the middle. Both the ground floor and the attic floor are less than 1.5 meters high.
The alleys here are intricate and complicated, and they often get lost when they turn around. The alley is piled with recycled waste and domestic garbage, exuding a strong rancid smell.
There are almost no public sanitation facilities in the slums. On average, every 15 households share a water pipe; most residents do not have a drainage system, and every 1,440 people share a toilet; no one cleans up the garbage dump.
In Dahavi, young boys can be seen running around naked, old people tripping over piles of recycled plastic, women washing their hair at the door, girls in school uniforms and bows going to school together, young men gathering in the open space play cricket.
When Garawa asked the bodyguard to drive to the neighborhood of the poor kiln, and Ye Chen got out of the car, and when they went inside, everything here surprised him.
Although staying at Garawa’s house last night, he saw some of the conditions of the poor kilns here.
Unexpectedly, it was even dirtier and worse than he had imagined.
Is this really part of the big city?
"Doctor Ye, I don't usually come to such a place," Garawa said.
Although this Indian caste exists in their genes and blood, Garawa does not want to come to this place, and it is even more impossible for the Wal-Mart to come to these places.
Seeing this place now, Ye Chen feels that this place is not comparable to ordinary small towns in China.
So much garbage is piled here directly, and flies are flying around, and many rats eat directly on those garbage piles.
Looking at the appearance of those mice, I am not afraid of people at all.
There are two things in India that are different from other places. Ye Chen saw many cows walking directly on the road. These cows were pulling shit, eating, and even pulling while eating, but no one drove them.
There is another mouse that everyone in other countries shouts and beats. Here, these mice are bold enough to live with these humans.
"You are not afraid of mice?"
"No, mice are also an animal we worship."
Is the mouse actually the animal they worship?
How is this possible?
Ye Chen didn't know what to say anymore.
He knew that the voles in the countryside might not be so dirty, but the rats in the sewers in these big cities, or the rats in the garbage dump were really dirty.
They all run around with bacteria.
In the Middle Ages, tens of millions of people died in Europe from the Black Death caused by rats, and almost two-thirds of the population died from the Black Death spread by rats.
Later, when those Europeans went to South American colonies, they brought the Black Death to the other side, causing many local indigenous deaths.
In addition to the most terrifying Black Death caused by rats, there are many other diseases that are caused by mouse infection.
When the big mice with wicked eyebrows and mouse eyes were eating directly there, Ye Chen had already understood that, except for a few people who came here, people from other countries really didn't dare to come.
In addition to these, Ye Chen also saw many monkeys jumping around.
"Doctor Ye, take good things, these monkeys are very cunning and will things."
Ye Chen didn't take anything except his cell phone and wallet.
However, when Ye Chen followed Garawa along the way, many men, women and children from the poor kilns came to see them, especially these people. Ye Chen could see that their skin was indeed much darker, unlike those black people. Not really black.
However, compared with those of Kshatriya's Wal-Mart family, they do look very dark.
On this smelly street, Ye Chen saw many women and middle-aged men taking off their shirts busy there.
"What are they busy there?"
"They are doing laundry there."
Do laundry?
Ye Chen looked over and saw a large pool, but the water in that pool looked dirty, which was actually used for washing clothes.
"They all wash clothes for people, and it only costs a few rupees to wash a room."
The clothes that these people collected from various houses were washed here, dried, and then sent back to customers.
Of course, Ye Chen guessed that it was impossible for people from a family like Galawa to send their clothes here for cleaning.
In addition to these, there are pottery factories, garment factories, tanneries, waste recycling companies, etc.
Along the way, Garawa and Ye Chen did see a lot.
Although the environment here is really bad, Ye Chen could see that they are very hardworking.
It is precisely because of their hard work that makes Ye Chen feel that these people are different, they are very promising.
In this regard, they are different from Africans.
Africa is rich in resources, but those black people are lazy.
Therefore, Ye Chen felt that this India, from the poor kiln alone, he could see that this nation is indeed very promising.
Although their current environmental conditions are indeed not good enough, they are very diligent and do not complain about their current life, but use all their diligence to create wealth.
In Ye Chen's view, within ten years, even the next generation is likely to be different.
However, compared with Shanghai, Ye Chen feels that it is indeed far behind.
"Doctor Ye, the environment here is like this, why don't we leave."
Garawa felt that the alleys inside were really difficult to walk, and, in Garawa's view, there were a lot of people like thieves.
If you encounter such people, you must be careful.
However, he is only carrying a bodyguard now.
"Lets see."
Ye Chen knows that there are many small workshops here. Apart from the ones that I just saw, Ye Chen felt that the fake medicines were produced from these places.
"Garrava, do you think those fake western medicines are produced by a small workshop here?"
