A tour guide is raking in the cash by carrying fatigued females up a mountain.
Xiao Chen, 26, accompanies tourists on their trek to the peak.
But many of his female clients want to be carried up the last 1,000 steps.

He starts by holding their hand along most of the route.
When they become tired, Chen carries them in a fireman’s lift, across his shoulders, or even bridal style.
He works at Mount Tai in Shandong Province, China.
The UNESCO World Heritage Site stands at an altitude of 5,029ft.
Chen reportedly earns over £31,920 (CNY 300,000) as a ‘climbing companion’ for his female clients, aged between 25 and 40 years.
He climbs the mountain twice a day, earning around £64 (CNY 600) per trip during daylight hours and £74 (CNY 700) at night.
During a good month, the sports graduate can earn around £5,320 (CNY 50,000).
He said it takes him around half an hour to carry someone up the last 1,000 steps to the peak.
Due to the high demand for his service, Chen has reportedly started employing team members to share the load, as reported by What’s The Jam.
And he appears to be very popular with his female customers.
His posts on TikTok always receive a lot of attention.
One fan said: “Do you only accompany pretty girls? I suppose you definitely don’t like aunties like me?”
Another added: “Can married women do this (covers face)? I’m not heavy and I don’t need to be carried or held.”
“If a married woman held his hand, the consequences would probably be very serious,” remarked someone else.
A fourth asked him: “Why are you so handsome?”
Maggie said: “Wow, his physical strength.”
