What is the cold knowledge about Xiamen?

When you travel to Xiamen, you must remember that you must have change when you take a taxi, because when you take a taxi in Xiamen, if the fare is 9.5 yuan, you will give the driver 10 yuan, and he will not give you another 50 cents, so it is very convenient to pay by mobile phone now, but some elderly friends still carry paper money with them when they go out.

Taking a taxi in Xiamen, generally speaking, as long as there is a few cents left in the change, the driver will not give it to you again, because at the earliest, many Hong Kong and Macao tourists came to Xiamen to travel, and Hong Kong and Macao tourists had the habit of tipping. In their view, a few tips are very cheap. Over time, taxi drivers in Xiamen have developed a bad habit of not giving change.

However, in the mainland, there is basically no place to tip us. Unless this behavior is voluntary, there is no reason for drivers not to give change. The local government in Xiamen has repeatedly stressed this matter, but many taxi drivers privately changed the unit price of the meter from ten cents to one yuan in order to make more money.

In the past two years, with the emergence of third-party mobile payment software, this situation has changed a lot, because taxi drivers no longer have any reason to get extra money, but should strengthen the management system. After all, so many people travel to Xiamen every year. If this habit spreads all over the country, Xiamen's reputation will be greatly damaged.
