Chapter 120 Sky-high booth fee
Jiangbei Fruit and Vegetable Market is the largest vegetable base in Jiangbei City.
The fruits and vegetables in the city have to be transported from here, so the fruits and vegetables here are quite cheap.
Wang Li and Guo Xiaomei came here to buy vegetables last month, and leeks cost 30 cents per pound.
There is a huge cabbage standing at the entrance of the market, which is also a landmark building in Jiangbei.
However, as soon as he entered the market, Wang Li was stunned: "What's wrong!"
"What's wrong?"
Brother Monkey said curiously: "It's normal to have no evil spirit."
"no……"
Wang Li said: "Why is this deserted here today?"
As the largest fruit and vegetable market in the city, it used to be extremely lively. The trucks transporting vegetables were parked in the middle of the road, and there were porters loading and unloading vegetables on both sides, including vegetable sellers and buyers... It was so crowded that the electric bike could not ride inside, and it had to walk to get in and out.
Last time I came here with Guo Xiaomei, Wang Li was so wide that he almost couldn't squeeze in.
But now it is extremely deserted.
The road in the middle of the market was empty, with a few small three-wheelers parked sparsely. The ground was messy, with vegetable leaves and ropes scattered with vegetables. There were only a few vegetable vendors selling vegetables there on both sides. It looked so desolate at first glance.
In the past, it was much more lively at one or two o'clock in the evening than it is now.
What's the situation? This is...
Wang Li came to a stall selling leeks in surprise and asked the vendor, "Brother, what's going on in the vegetable market today? Why is there no one?"
"More than today."
The elder brother said, "It's been more than a week, and there's no one at all."
"Why?"
Wang Li was very puzzled.
"Hi! Don't let the people work." The vendor said: "The stall fee has increased to fifty yuan a day. Is it easy for our vegetable farmers to sell vegetables here? If you only earn 180 yuan a day, you have to get half of it. Who is still selling vegetables here?"
"Fifty yuan a day? This market boss is going crazy!"
After hearing what the vendor said, Wang Li was full of black thread.
Suddenly I remembered that the day Brother Monkey was arrested, I did mention it in the news, saying that the vegetable market was on strike, and I didn’t expect that this matter was so big that even the vegetable sellers were gone.
Jiangbei is not a big city, but just a first- and fourth-tier small town. Most of the vendors who come here to sell vegetables are vegetable farmers in nearby counties. Since it is a wholesale market, the prices are very cheap. They can only rely on the vegetable markets and supermarkets in the city to sell volume here.
The vendors selling vegetables here can’t make much money, and they may not make much money as those who transport vegetables. It’s an exaggeration to make 180 yuan a day, but there are still some money to make 300 yuan for 100 yuan... But the stall fee for 50 yuan is a bit of a scam.
The personal income tax is only 10%, and the stall fee in this vegetable market actually costs one-sixth of the income. How bad the boss can do this.
"Who said no?" said the vendor: "It would be better to just let the car from the south take off the field. We can also save ourselves from getting up early and running back and forth in the middle of the day. We earn about the same amount, at least it is easier than this. C's mother's energy to improve people's livelihood."
As he spoke, the vendor got into the dirty mouth.
Zhenhui People's Livelihood is the operating company of this vegetable market.
"Then why don't you transport it to the city? Or set up stalls at the vegetable market inside?" Wang Li asked again.
"Hey, look at what you said."
The vendor said: "Our way, can we just go to the city? It's okay, the boss of Zhenhui Minsheng is a gangster! It's a bitch! If we all enter the city, he will still make money!"
"Why……"
Wang Li sighed when he heard this.
That's right... Cats have cats and rats, and any profession has its own tricks.
Vegetable farmers who grow vegetables still have to grow vegetables. Selling vegetables is just a secondary profession. They are not the same as those specialized vegetable dealers. If you are rash, you will definitely be bullied very badly. This is the naked reality.
Wang Li had seen a group of people bullying a newcomer at the mobile barbecue stall downstairs.
"How much does a pound of leeks cost?"
Wang Li changed the topic and asked questions here. It was not appropriate not to buy anything. He just happened to buy some leeks and went back to make dumplings.
"Four-five!" said the vendor.
"Damn! So expensive? I only cost 30 cents last time." Wang Li was shocked. Why did the price of this vegetable have increased by more than ten times?
"Nonsense, you were all here last time!" said the vendor: "There are no vegetables sold now? If you want to buy cheap vegetables, you have to travel more than 100 miles to the greenhouse in Shenxian County."
"I……"
Wang Li was speechless.
Just buying a few kilograms of leeks. It’s not enough to travel more than 100 miles. There is no way to go when the price rises. Who makes vegetable farmers have no place to sell vegetables?
It seems that this stall fee has directly affected the living standards of the people in Jiangbei City. This brilliant people's livelihood is really fucking.
...
There are many people in the family, so Wang Li bought ten kilograms of leeks.
He and Monkey Brother took it out of the vegetable market.
Brother Monkey was very disappointed when he came here. He had no vegetables and no fruit sellers. It seemed that he could only buy some fruit from the supermarket if he wanted to eat some fruit.
"What exactly does Zhenhui Minsheng do? Why are you so stupid?"
After leaving the vegetable market, Monkey Brother asked Wang Lidao
"I don't know either..." Wang Li shook his head: "I just wrote a book, I don't know these things at all, and I haven't come to the vegetable market a few times."
"Hmph!" Brother Monkey snorted coldly, "It's really damn that he dares to oppress the people. Why don't you resist?"
"Resist?"
Wang Li took a deep breath: "What do you mean by resistance?"
"It's just that he has turned against his mother and smashed Zhenhui's livelihood. The people are the ones who take charge of the family." Brother Monkey clenched his fists and his face was full of excitement.
Wow...
It’s really true. When Brother Monkey said this, he looked serious and really had a bit of the temperament of a Monkey King. Wherever there is oppression, there will be resistance. Brother Monkey is known for his spirit of resistance.
Taizu said that the golden monkey raised his thunderous rod, and the jade water clarified the thousands of miles away. Today, he called Sun Dasheng, because the demon fog came back again.
Brother Monkey’s idea is correct, but his brain circuit is a bit unclear.
Now it is a society ruled by law. If you are unhappy, you will be in chaos if you smash and loot?
"Put your dangerous thoughts." Wang Li said solemnly: "I don't want to do this now! A civilized society requires formal means to deal with such a bad company. You cannot violently smash and loot..."
As the legal guardian of the monkey, if the monkey does this, Wang Li will definitely be jointly and severally liable.
Isn’t it unfair to be accustomed to the law and honest author who is implicated by such a mob?
"Then watch the people suffer?" Monkey Brother's eyes widened...
This monkey stole and robbed, but he didn't expect that the realm was quite high.
Wang Li shook his head and said, "There is no way. We are just a little bit simple. Just do what we can do within our ability. Not all unfair things can be managed. You, the Monkey King, can only buy a fruit now?"
"You said, can we build a fruit and vegetable market?" Brother Monkey asked after thinking about it.
“Fruit and vegetable market?”
