Shangguan has been selling fruits on a road-side tricycle since moving to Beijing in 1991. He earns 6,000 yuan per month and spends 2,000 yuan of his earnings on rent to live in a suite in the south part of Beijing. Shangguan said he planned to open a fruit shop in his hometown at Henan province within the next few years. "The prices of water and electricity is especially expensive at the rental room, as we have to pay 1.5 yuan for each kilowatt hour of power,"he said.
