A migrant worker, afraid of pickpockets, hid his hard-earned cash inside a bucket of meat but then forgot to take it when he left the bus.

The man put the money and his coach ticket in the meat when he got on the bus in Guangzhou, Guangdong province, on Tuesday.

However, as he departed the bus, Liu forgot to take the plastic pail. He was forced to pay 100 yuan ($14.60) to a driver to get to the bus terminal where the bucket was in the lost and found room.
