A boy from Iaşi county, caught while selling carefully placed “bunches of cherries” on the side of the road, became viral on social networks. The images sparked thousands of emotional reactions and comments.
A video filmed in a town in Iaşi county managed to move thousands of people on social networks, after the images of a boy selling “bunches of cherries” on the side of the road went viral on Instagram.
In the video shared on Instagram, the boy appears on the side of the road, having exposed four “bunches” of carefully arranged cherries, almost like small bouquets. It was this original presentation that led the author of the video to buy the entire merchandise for 100 lei, but also to advertise it online, distributing the images further.
“You can find the boy from Comarna at the intersection with Vişan”, wrote the user next to the images in which he eats the cherries with gusto.
The reactions did not take long to appear, and the comments section quickly became a space of intense discussion. Many netizens were impressed by the child’s seriousness and the way he tried to capitalize on his work, despite his young age. Others have pointed out that the care with which he prepared his wares reflects a more complicated work than meets the eye.
“100 is too little. Only the sitting one took him…Poor kid,” wrote a netizen, a message that in turn gathered many likes and supportive reactions from other users.
“How easy to throw a paper/plastic… on your work. It’s not fair bro… in more ways than one… I’m not talking about you… In general, if you know what I’m saying.” someone else commented, referring to the fact that, unfortunately, in Romania, many children are forced to work from a young age, to help their family meet their daily expenses.
“I would give a million likes for the teenager’s work.”
“Alas, but what work!”
“I used to pay double, just as much work as bunches of them!”
“He did some work to make those,” these are just some of the comments from those who appreciated the boy’s effort.
At one point, even the small seller intervened in the discussions and thanked the customer in a simple way.
“Eat them with pleasure! I am the boy,” he wrote..
His intervention further boosted the discussion, with many users praising him for his attitude, engagement and the way he promotes his work. There were numerous messages of encouragement, but also curiosities related to how they make those “clusters” that have gone viral.
“Talented! Do you want me to teach you?”, he replied, naturally and jokingly.
