Other cities
Apart from Zhengzhou, there are also many homeless migrant people in many other cities.
Wang Shouquan, a 90-year-old homeless man in Liaoning province, had to sleep in front of a medicine store in Shenyang, the provincial capital.
Wang had to beg in the city during the day and sleep in parks, passageways and unfinished buildings.
"All of my clothes were donated by kind-hearted people, and a girl gave me these earmuffs," he said on Monday.
He used to seek help from the local rescue station, but he was sent back to his hometown in Lingyuan county several days later. He could not make a living in his hometown and had to go back to Shenyang afterward.
