Stop the super typhoon...Rent a truck and park in front of the store with a windbreaker

According to Dhawan News and other Chinese media, as 'Lagasa' approached, many restaurant owners in Huizhou, Guangdong Province, rented large trucks and parked them at their doors.
A restaurant owner said a truck parked at the door can block the wind and the rent is 400 yuan (about 80,000 won) per car per day, but it's worth it for safety. Merchants here have previously reportedly suffered huge losses from typhoons.
A seafood restaurant owner in Sanwei said he lost hundreds of thousands of yuan in 2018 when Typhoon 'Mankut' caused the aquarium to crumble and the interior of the store was ruined.
He added that it is more cost-effective to protect the store even by renting a large truck.
Meanwhile, the 18th typhoon 'Lagasa' is a name submitted by the Philippines, which means 'fast' and 'acceleration'.
Currently, Lagasa has hit Taiwan, causing floods in the local east, killing at least 14 people and leaving 124 missing.
In the Philippines, three people were also reported to have died due to the effects of Lagasa.
The southern coast of China and Hong Kong, where typhoons are moving, are also in emergency response.
