Chapter 50 Profitable Merchants

The masses couldn't cross the bridge, so they were so anxious that they raised their feet and scolded Xu Yishan.

They ignored Xu Yishan's decent deputy mayor and cursed all his ancestors for eighteen generations.

Xu Yishan turned a deaf ear. He was like a huge rock, firmly guarding the bridge, leaving the scolding everywhere without any movement.

Lao Sun came over and said, "Mayor Xu, these people are so rude. Don't they know you are doing it for their own good? Otherwise, I will take someone to arrest those who scold the most."

Xu Yishan smiled generously and said, "It's okay, the people are resentful, and it won't be dead if they scold them a few times. Let them scold them."

Lao Sun smiled bitterly and said, "It doesn't sound uncomfortable for you, I'm still uncomfortable for you."

"Don't listen if you feel uncomfortable. Wouldn't it be better to pretend to be deaf?"

Lao Sun shook his head and said, "Depending on my bad temper, I threw all these birds into the river."

Xu Yishan smiled and said, "Old Sun, if you dare to do this, it will be a big trouble."

Suddenly, the crowd was in a state of turmoil. Xu Yishan looked over and heard the sound. It turned out that someone had sold boiled eggs.

"Ten yuan per, fresh native eggs."

The crowd surrounded and someone shouted, "One is ten yuan, why don't you grab it?"

"What are you robbing? If you want to buy it, buy it. Don't buy it, don't talk nonsense."

"You are so shady, you are so rich in the country."

"Brother, don't say that. I can sell eggs for you. It's already the heart of the Bodhisattva. If you think it's expensive, you can't buy it."

People in Hongshan Town were frightened all night last night and were already hungry. At this moment, they encountered an egg worth ten yuan each, and they felt so hungry that they didn't eat it. After eating it, their hearts hurt again.

Lao Sun asked Xu Yishan: "Master Xu, can I buy a few eggs too?"

Xu Yishan shook his head and said, "No need, let the masses eat first."

The egg seller is still arguing with the egg buyer. Some people have already paid for it.

Xu Yishan thought for a while and said, "Old Sun, go over and coordinate, can you reduce the price a little? Ten dollars per egg is indeed a little more expensive."

Lao Sun nodded, walked over to the egg seller and said, "Brother, your egg price is a bit high. Can you lower it a little?"

The egg seller obviously knew Lao Sun and smiled and said, "Minister Sun, it's not that I don't want to lower it, but the problem is that it's unfair to lower it. Since you have always asked about it personally, from now on, each egg will increase by five yuan. Each egg costs fifteen yuan."

Lao Sun said angrily: "What do you mean?"

The egg-selling land said with a smile: "The market price is not a popular market price now? Your town government can't interfere with our business, right?"

Lao Sun was so angry that his face turned into a pig's liver, but he had no choice but to come back and say to Xu Yishan: "Mayor Xu, this kind of person has a very bad conscience and is so dark. He is really a damn businessman."

Xu Yishan smiled. He could hear clearly what the person selling eggs said. What they said was indeed correct. The market regulation mechanism is that one is willing to fight and the other is willing to be beaten.

Having said that, he always felt that something was wrong in his heart. Although the market regulation mechanism is a big truth, he cannot use big truth to make money.

A basket of eggs was snatched away in a blink of an eye.

When people are hungry, their eyes will become like rats. Who can still care about the relationship between price and value?

Usually, the eggs at the farmers' market in Hongshan Town cost only 50 cents each, and many times no one cares about them. But today, eggs of 50 cents each have become fifteen yuan each, and the supply is in short supply, making it difficult to find an egg.

The people who didn't get the eggs cursed and cursed, and then turned their fingers at Xu Yishan, thinking that Xu Yishan was the culprit, so that they would live a hungry life in today's peaceful and prosperous era.

Not long after, a few more instant noodles came.

The instant noodles were fifty yuan a barrel, and as soon as the price was shouted out, he suddenly exclaimed.

Xu Yishan felt it was necessary to stop him, so he walked forward and blocked the instant noodles stall and said to the boss: "My name is Xu Yishan, and I am the deputy mayor of Hongshan Town."

The instant noodles stall owner smiled and said, "Oh, Mayor Xu, your name is well-known. Aren't you the Mayor Xu who beats the gong on the street?"

"Yes, it's me." Xu Yishan said quietly: "I heard you shout just now, "I'm fifty dollars a barrel of instant noodles?"

"Yes, you heard it right, just fifty yuan per bucket, of course, boiling water is given."

"Don't you think the price is a bit outrageous?"

"It's not outrageous." The stall owner said with a smile: "I didn't force buying and selling."

"But you're going to raise prices."

"There's no way." The stall owner spread his hands and said, "I also want to sell them for five dollars a barrel, but my strength doesn't allow me to do this."

Xu Yishan said: "Boss, you can adjust it appropriately based on the original one, but it cannot be outrageous."

"Am I outrageous or are you outrageous? Good days, you spread rumors that the flood control dike would collapse, which scared the people of the town to escape overnight. Do you know how they came this night? I tell you, life is worse than death."

"Mayor Xu, I sell 50 yuan a barrel of instant noodles, which is my blessing to you."

Xu Yishan knew that he couldn't tell him clearly, so he had to settle for the second best, and wanted to call on the masses not to buy his noodles.

As soon as he said that, he was scolded, and someone scolded: "You made us cold and afraid for a night. Do you still want us to starve to death now? Not to mention fifty yuan, even five hundred yuan per barrel, I will buy it for food. However, this account must be settled on Hongshan Town."

Someone took the lead and followed someone to make a fuss. The scene was in a mess.

Xu Yishan blocked the instant noodles stall and tried to stop it, but was pushed away and scolded: "A good dog doesn't block the way, and you don't eat it. Do you still have to worry about not letting us eat it?"

Xu Yishan had the intention to cry. Seeing the people who bought the face to squeeze in, a thought suddenly surged into his mind, did he do something wrong?

Suddenly, a trumpet rang.

"Dear everyone, we are from the County Women's Federation, we are here to bring you food."

On the road leading to Hongqiao, more than a dozen trucks covered with tarp appeared.

On the roof of the leading car, a horn was shouting.

People were stunned for a moment and then flocked over.

When Xu Yishan heard the word "Women's Federation", he felt warmth in his heart.

"My wife is here." A thought came to his mind.

Sure enough, Chen Xiaoqi came out of the car. She looked at the crowded crowd and held the broadcaster and shouted: "Don't squeeze, everyone line up, I guarantee everyone has something to eat."

The crowd really lined up.

Xu Yishan looked at Chen Xiaoqi and wanted to rush over and hug her in his arms, and kiss her hard on her face.

Seeing that the team was lined up, Chen Xiaoqi threw down the broadcaster and walked towards Xu Yishan.

Xu Yishan went up to meet him, choked and shouted: "Wife."

Chen Xiaoqi blushed and said angrily: "Don't scream, you are not ashamed to have so many people?"

Xu Yishan said with his neck stammering, "I called my wife, but I didn't call anyone else, why are you embarrassed?"

Before he finished speaking, his cell phone suddenly started to scream.
