Why did the passenger trains from Hangzhou to Puyuan stop in the first half of the year?

Puyuan is a small town mainly producing wool and cashmere, which belongs to Tongxiang City, Jiaxing City, Zhejiang Province. Although small, it is a major town in Zhejiang, and is famous for its concentrated wool and cashmere industrial chain. ?

In the second half of every year, many second and third batches come here to order from all over the country. But mainly concentrated in the second half of the year. In the first half of the year, because it was the off-season of the clothing industry, state-owned passenger stations such as Hangzhou Jiubao Passenger Transport Center and Chengzhan Passenger Transport Center gave up opening the line because there was no income from this line. ?

In the circle of clothing industry, it is recognized that women's wear made in Hangzhou is the main product in summer. If you need to order summer clothes from Puyuan, there is a private car in Hangzhou, which is privately operated. Only once a day in the off-season, leaving at 10: 50 in the morning. Hangzhou merchants took the goods and just returned to Hangzhou by car at 2: 30. If the merchants don't have time to come in person, they can also ask the bus to help bring the goods to Hangzhou. When we arrived in Hangzhou, a special bag puller was sent to a specific booth. This saves the store time and only needs WeChat transactions. ?

Puyuan is a major production town, where thousands of factories, large and small, are concentrated, forming a complete industrial chain. Wool and cashmere products are more complicated than fabrics and clothing, and need felting, shaping and ironing. There are embedded high-temperature gas pipelines in the whole town, and it is impossible to produce this kind of product around Hangzhou, so this is the back garden that supports the wholesale market in Hangzhou. Puyuan bus station belongs to the state. In the first half of the year, almost no customers came, even if it was opened, it was only a single-digit passenger flow, so it simply stopped and let the individual operators make money. In fact, after the rise in oil prices, self-employed people are reluctant to attract customers, so they have to pick up guests from Hangzhou Kaixuan Road Tea Farm and then go around the city station to pick up some passengers, otherwise they will all lose money. Merchants who travel to and from Hangzhou and Puyuan for a long time will add self-employed WeChat to negotiate where to pick up people and where to drop off goods. It also fully makes up for the embarrassing situation that the state-owned bus station does not operate in the off-season. The epidemic has a great impact on the service industry.
