Chapter 47
Although it was raining, the Mid-Autumn Festival night in Yanjun's family was quite warm, and more than a dozen vegetable-growing families in Yanjia Village were happily eating big fat chickens.
But the Mid-Autumn Festival night for the people of Jiangcheng is not easy.
After emergency repairs by the power department, most of the city's electricity has finally resumed supply.
But it rained heavily, and the accumulated water has not yet dissipated, and the tap water in many places cannot be supplied. What should I do? Come to the supermarket to grab the water!
No matter what, the Mid-Autumn Festival is still to be celebrated. This is a festival that the Chinese people have passed down for thousands of years.
You always need to buy some vegetables, right?
As a result, when I arrived at the container, my face turned green!
Lettuce costs 8 yuan per pound! You might as well grab it!
As a result, the dish was quickly robbed... Affected by the panic after the disaster, everyone bought a lot of it and went home to spare. In addition, the whole city only had this little storage, which was not enough to buy it. You were still hesitating whether to buy it or not, and others had already taken it away.
Supermarket staff urgently transferred goods from the warehouse, but this batch has independent packaging and looks more refined...
"Let’s 10 yuan per pound! You guys are robbing money!"
When you see the price, the customer seems to be getting caught by a snake, and it is too much to throw it away.
The salesperson also thought it was a robbery of money, but he still made a loud noise in the program: "The ordinary vegetables have been sold out. This is a temporary purchase of vegetables for Hong Kong. It is supplied to Hong Kong. It is not eaten normally. The dish tastes better, is more nutritious, and is safer and hygienic. Every vegetable inside is sorted and cleaned, and you can stir-fry it without washing it."
"That doesn't have to be so expensive! It's too much! Yesterday, lettuce was only more than three pieces, and it increased to more than three times! It's too much!"
"Auntie, there is no way. The flood flooded all the vegetable fields in Jiangdong and were raising prices." The salesperson was helpless.
"The Yanjiagou vegetables are written on it, the origin is Yanjia Village, Jiangcheng. Isn't it locally produced? It's so expensive if the packaging is better!" Some consumers questioned.
The salesperson didn't know how to explain, after all, they didn't know it themselves, so they could only explain according to the unified caliber of the supermarket: "That is also for Hong Kong, with strict inspections, high requirements and high prices."
Customers dislike all kinds of dislike...
But after going around, I still came back and bought two pounds. I couldn’t. I always need to eat some vegetables during the holidays, right? It’s just that my wallet hurts a little.
Perhaps because it was released late and the price was too high, the sales of Yanjiagou Green Vegetables were average. But it was not small. Most people were forced to buy two boxes because they had no choice.
Most people eat dinner on Mid-Autumn Festival night, and the environment on typhoon days is too bad! In previous years, everyone should watch fireworks with their favorite people on the street.
The chicken is dry and astringent, and it’s a pity to eat it. Eating two more pieces of pork belly will inevitably make you feel a little greasy and you have to eat some vegetables.
"The price of vegetables is too much now. Lettuce costs ten yuan per pound, and oily vegetables costs eleven yuan per pound. My God! Pork belly costs only eight yuan!" My wife was still complaining.
"This dish... tastes good!" the husband said.
"Is that so? It is also made in Jiangcheng, and there are independent boxes and packaging. It looks decent, saying it is supplied to Xiangjiang, which is two yuan more expensive than usual vegetables," his wife nagged and carefully picked up chopsticks. This is probably a dollar, right? Carefully put it in her mouth and tasted it, and the rich aroma of vegetables instantly filled her mouth.
This is the fragrance of vegetables!
No matter how much seasoning you eat, you can't taste any taste. The difference is two dollars, which is a world of difference.
A plate of vegetables was soon found, and the appetite was so great that I could eat one more bowl of rice than usual.
"What kind of world do you think about this? We just want to serve such a good dish, but we can't eat it normally." My wife couldn't help but resent.
The husband smiled and said, "They are much more expensive."
"It's just a little more expensive today. It shouldn't be that expensive. It's acceptable for four or five yuan per pound!" said his wife, and then wondered whether she would go to the supermarket to buy some tomorrow morning.
During the cold Mid-Autumn Festival, Yanjiagou Shiqi brought warmth to many families.
The next day, the supply of vegetables in Jiangcheng was still tight.
Although the vegetable prices did not rise wildly, they could not drop for a while.
Dachang and Fuyoufu Supermarket finally found other sources of goods.
But what is bizarre is that Yanjiagou vegetables are selling well today. Although most customers choose cheaper ones, there are still many people who buy Yanjiagou brand.
People's lives are getting better now, and they don't expect to live a life of these two dollars. Especially for young people, the restaurants are closed due to the storm, and they have to fry them with their own hands to solve the problem of food and clothing.
However, more customers who purchase Yanjiacun Shijiacun are repeat customers.
"Which vegetable was very packaging yesterday? Is it gone?"
At noon, some repeat customers found that the Yanjiagou vegetables on the shelves were out of stock, and most people didn't even remember the brand of this.
"Sorry, this is gone, but we have replenished the supply of vegetables." The salesperson explained that vegetables are too short and even sold out so expensive.
"The taste is different, it's just because someone is expensive... When will the goods be delivered?" the customer asked casually.
"Sorry, this batch of vegetables for Hong Kong was temporarily purchased by us. Because the purchase price is too high, we have no plans to continue purchasing at present." The salesperson explained.
"What! The vegetables produced in our hometown cannot be eaten by our own people, so we gave them all good things to the people of Xiangjiang! What's this called... can't we afford them or what?" The customer expressed strong dissatisfaction.
Especially when I thought that I would not be able to eat this kind of vegetable in the future, I felt uncomfortable and couldn't help but complain: "Drunk these profiteers!"
Love is deep and hatred is deep.
Today's Mid-Autumn Festival holiday is over. Yan Jun is going to the city to withdraw money from the growers. When he passed by a Dachang supermarket, he went in and took a walk.
As a result, I didn’t see my own vegetables in the vegetable area. What’s going on? I immediately found a salesperson to ask for it.
The salesperson was not unfamiliar with this problem and explained: "This batch of vegetables for Hong Kong were temporarily purchased by us. They have been sold out now. There is no plan to continue purchasing. You can purchase other vegetables from us."
The answer is so smooth that it seems that I have been asked a lot.
"Have you bought it?" Yan Jun was surprised. A store was probably going to be assigned several thousand kilograms of Yanjiagou vegetables? How long has it been?
"I'm sorry, I've really bought it." The salesperson confirmed.
This is a good thing! Yan Jun took a bottle of drinks and went to check out happily.
"Boss Yan stays!"
As a result, I met the purchasing manager of Dachang Supermarket at the door, and he happened to deliver goods to the supermarket.
"...Manager Cai! Hello." Yan Jun was stunned at first, but fortunately remembered his last name.
"Boss Yan is here to inspect the sales of his vegetables? Let me tell you directly, the whole city has sold out! The key is that his reputation is very good. I heard that many repeat customers are today! I also took a bag home to stir-fry it last night. The taste is really amazing. I envy the people of Xiangjiang with my real name." Manager Cai laughed.
"That's good, that's good." Yan Jun smiled immediately.
"If our Dachang Supermarket can supply your brand of vegetables for a long time and give it to the people of your hometown to try it out, this is also a great thing. What does Boss Yan think?" Manager Cai said his purpose.
As a supermarket purchasing manager, he knows very well how important the power of a brand is to sales. Urban consumers are not picky about prices, but more of a trust in quality. To put it bluntly, everyone is not short of these two dollars now.
"This... we have signed an agreement with the Hong Kong-based company, and I'm afraid we won't be able to squeeze out much for you." Yan Jun said nothing at once.
Chapter completed!
