Sumu wood in the quadrangle welcomes spring

Chapter 48 Business in the suburbs of Beijing

Ganjiakou is located in the southeast of HD District, starting from the future West Third Ring Road in the west, Sanlihe Road in the east, Zizhuyuan Road in the north, and Yuyuantan Park in the south.

This is also the boundary between Haidian and Xicheng.

Not far to the west is the current Yuyuantan Commune.

There are many better places here than in the city.

Because this place is adjacent to Yuyuantan Commune, and there are many villagers near Ganjiakou, so even though unified purchasing and marketing are now implemented, many farmers from the suburbs of Beijing will drive here to sell vegetables.

The means of transportation are horse-drawn carriages, mules, or donkey carts.

The vegetables they sell are grown in their own gardens or private plots, and most of them are of a single variety.

Either a cart full of cucumbers or a cart full of eggplants of different sizes, intact ones with 'miasma' in them. Miasma is the kind that got bumped during loading and transportation.

There are all kinds of quality.

These dishes are cheap and fresh.

And no tickets are required.

Here’s the key point, don’t vote!

Because they are products of farmers' private land, they can be exchanged for some, and most of them are not expensive.

From a business point of view, it is a first-hand product that has not been stripped by the market.

Moreover, this cart of vegetables might have been growing in the ground a few hours ago, so how could they not be fresh?

At this time, refrigerators were a trendy gadget, and even though it was popular, most people in the city still didn't know about it.

"Uncle, how do you plan to sell this cart of cucumbers?"

Su Mu thought for a moment and called out to the old farmer.

The old farmer consciously stopped the donkey cart by the roadside, and Sumu also stopped there.

As I walked closer, I could smell the fresh earthy fragrance in my nose.

The freshness of the food is unquestionable.

In fact, here in the capital, everything we eat is seasonal fruits and vegetables.

Among the vegetables on the market in summer, tomatoes and cucumbers are the most popular.

There are some of these two in winter, but they are so expensive that they are shockingly expensive. In summer, they are so cheap that they are worthless.

The old farmer pulled a donkey cart of cucumbers and packed them in thick baskets.

Now it looks like it has just been picked and is still worth some money.

If they are not sold on the first day, they will be discounted the next day and piled up at the door of the grocery store or vegetable station. They are almost sold for money.

Many cheap housewives like to visit tomato and cucumber stalls where you can smell the rotten smell from a distance.

After buying in large quantities, take it home, process it, and throw away at least a third of it.

Pick the good ones to cook and eat, and use the rest to make pickles.

After talking for a while, the old farmer’s quotation was very cheap, so cheap that Su Mu immediately thought he had heard wrongly.

But in the end, Su Mu decided to exchange grain with the old farmer.

At this time of year, many farmers may be even more short of food than city residents.

This is caused by many factors.

……

Xinhua News Agency, Zhengzhou, July 1958, 7. The two-acre wheat high-yield experimental field of the Heping Agricultural Cooperative Team No. 11, Chengguan Town, Xiping County, Henan Province, has a total output of kilograms, and an average yield of seven thousand three hundred and twenty pounds per mu. catty.

And this is only the '29th' satellite released during last year's wheat harvest in Henan Province, with a wheat yield of more than kilograms per mu.

Unremarkable.

There is a place where Zhuyu is in front, and the latter has to bite the bullet and push up, so it won't be too ugly.

Therefore, the farmers themselves are the ones who suffer in the end.

Su Mu even thought about the hemp bag in Xiaoshi and the loss of coarse grains and sweet potatoes, how much impact it would have on a peasant family.

Su Mu lifted the cart and pretended to pull out a sack from it.

It contains whole grains, but it only weighs a dozen kilograms.

But it can be exchanged for a cart or ten baskets of fresh cucumbers.

Su Mu couldn't bear it and deliberately put in more than one kilogram.

Not too much beyond that.

Because that goes against market rules.

Sumu essentially treats life as a shopping mall, and every transaction is a commercial transaction.

And simple business behavior that conforms to the laws of the market is the most consistent with human nature.

Many people who do bad things with good intentions just don't know how to cater to the basic laws of the market.

If Sumu is doubled this time and traded for cucumbers to old farmers, there will be no pressure at all on Sumu’s current capabilities and grain reserves.

But he can't do that.

If he really did this, it would most likely not help the farmer, but harm him.

If an old farmer exchanges a cart of cucumbers for more than double the market amount of grain, will he exchange half of the next cartload of cucumbers?

If it doesn’t sell on the first day, will it all be sold at a low price the next day?

If he gets any benefits this time, he can go back and tell others in the village and commune.

Even if not everyone, but only a small part of them, recognizes this replacement ratio, will it affect more farmers?

Tracing back to the source, will the old farmer still be grateful to sumu?

I'm afraid what he regrets is not that he was greedy, but that Su Mu tempted him to be greedy.

Human nature tends to ignore one's own problems, magnify the other party's behavior, thereby finding reasons for one's own mistakes, and then focus on blaming the other party.

The old farmer originally wanted to sell the cucumbers and use the money to buy high-priced grain.

As a result, I was really lucky, and I got it right in one step with the smallest distance.

Save yourself all the trouble in between.

You must know that when it is noon and the weather is so hot, the cucumbers will definitely wilt and spoil quickly.

Now it is the freshest, and it can be directly exchanged for grain, and there is no need to add money to buy high-priced grain.

He was already very satisfied with this result.

Even the weights on the car were useless.

I told myself how much it would weigh, so I happily gave it to the stick noodles according to the number.

"Fellow, how do you plan to sell these tomatoes?"

The old farmer put the flour bag on the donkey cart and covered it with the messy straw husks on it. Just as he was about to turn around and return to the village, he heard the young man pedaling the scooter again and stopped Widow Li's house at the head of the village. The second boy.

of a village.

This guy pulled a load of tomatoes.

Her family's land is not far from the old farmer's private land.

When the boy pedaling stopped on the side of the road, he saw the old farmer who was about to leave.

"Second uncle, this car is yours."

The second son of Widow Li's family's eyes lit up, he immediately jumped out of the car and ran towards the old farmer.

Most people in the village are related by relatives, and even if they have five blessings, they can still be considered senior.

Su Mu was not in a hurry and piled tall baskets on the cart next to him.

The second boy must have gone to inquire about the price.

He felt that his grasp of prices was not as accurate as that of the old farmer.

Since all the cucumbers from the second uncle's house have been packaged and given to the other party, the other party is now telling me to stop. If he can sell them all, he can go back early and continue to work in the fields to earn work points.

As for whether the opponent's cart can be pulled down, this is not considered at all.

If you don’t want to buy it, what are you doing? Are you looking for trouble?
