Huang says that these are the worst times he has seen since he began running a pawnshop, because even big firms in industries that you would never imagine going to a pawnbroker-like construction or metals-are coming to pawnshops for liquidity. There are even people who bring family heirlooms and precious belongings to ask for a loan, which is really depressing.
黃一脩說，這是他經營當鋪多年來所看到的最大慘狀，因為連一向被認為不可能「走當鋪」的建築業、鋼鐵業大亨都來當鋪週轉，有人甚至拿祖母綠等祖傳寶物求現，令人不勝唏噓。
