Back then, there was no ice; I would bring snow from Kandovan and store it in a pit I had dug behind the shop; I covered it and even slept there at night; it was cool. Towards the end of the summer, my father came and said, &#8220;You must come to Karaj!&#8221; He had visited before; I told him, &#8220;This place is growing, I am progressing here, I have my own income and I help you too&#8221;; he said, &#8220;Even if you make a brick of gold a day, I won&#8217;t be satisfied. I am alone, I have problems, and I have no one to help me. Whatever you want to do, you must come to Karaj.&#8221; Eventually, he convinced me; we rented a truck, loaded my belongings, and went to Karaj; I settled there.<\/p>\n<p>This event changed the course of my life; I entered the political arena. At that time, the political struggle for the nationalization of the oil industry was underway, and I gradually became involved in this path until it became my full-time occupation; I could no longer attend to my business, to the extent that I took a job with a daily wage of three tomans, so I could devote more time to political activities.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-ed72c91 e-grid e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"ed72c91\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-cb49c6a e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"cb49c6a\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-9269594 elementor-post-navigation-borders-yes ahura-dark-mode-filter-texts-no elementor-widget elementor-widget-post-navigation\" data-id=\"9269594\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"post-navigation.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<link rel=\"stylesheet\" href=\"https:\/\/dangofang.org\/wp-content\/plugins\/elementor-pro\/assets\/css\/widget-theme-elements-rtl.min.css\">\t\t<div class=\"elementor-post-navigation\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-post-navigation__prev elementor-post-navigation__link\">\n\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/dangofang.org\/en\/mashti\/\" rel=\"prev\"><span class=\"post-navigation__arrow-wrapper post-navigation__arrow-prev\"><i class=\"fa fa-angle-left\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><span class=\"elementor-screen-only\">Prev<\/span><\/span><span class=\"elementor-post-navigation__link__prev\"><span class=\"post-navigation__prev--label\">prevoius story<\/span><span class=\"post-navigation__prev--title\">Mashti<\/span><\/span><\/a>\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-post-navigation__separator-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-post-navigation__separator\"><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-post-navigation__next elementor-post-navigation__link\">\n\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/dangofang.org\/en\/oil\/\" rel=\"next\"><span class=\"elementor-post-navigation__link__next\"><span class=\"post-navigation__next--label\">Next Story<\/span><span class=\"post-navigation__next--title\">Oil<\/span><\/span><span class=\"post-navigation__arrow-wrapper post-navigation__arrow-next\"><i class=\"fa fa-angle-right\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><span class=\"elementor-screen-only\">Next<\/span><\/span><\/a>\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Some time after our business began to flourish, Hassan and I went our separate ways; we got another shop next to the iron bridge in Chalus, which still exists.
