Chapter 272 The opening of the vegetable market

For this opening, Lin Mai made a special trip to Tao Zhiyun's house and asked her to tailor a bright red printed dress for him.

The style of this dress is a style she copied from her previous life.

Tao Zhiyun was so surprised when he saw the drawings: "Maizi, I didn't expect you to be so talented in design. This skirt is so beautiful!"

Lin Mai chuckled twice. She still didn't know if she had design talent, but she still had a high talent for plagiarism.

Tao Zhiyun made the dress for her on the same day according to the drawings she gave her.

Lin Mai put on that dress early in the morning, and even Fang Zhuoran praised the dress for its beauty.

The market is open from 7 am to 8 pm every day, a total of twelve hours.

Employees work two shifts and work six hours a day.

Lin Mai made this arrangement because many families are dual-income families.

You can only buy groceries before and after work. The market's operating hours allow families with both working parents to buy groceries calmly.

The opening ceremony of the market is scheduled for 6:56 in the morning, which means Liuliu Dashun.

Lin Mai's group of people left at 6:30.

Chen Feng was dressed like a dog, standing at the entrance of the market, chatting and laughing with a group of boys. Forsythia stood beside him.

Forsythia was dressed very charmingly today, wearing a bat shirt, a one-step skirt, black stockings, big waves, and flaming red lips.

Forget it, I still wear gold earrings, gold rings, and gold bracelets.

Although she usually wears one or two pieces of gold jewelry, she is not as complete as she is today.

Lin Mai found that all the gold jewelry she wore were handmade and the styles were antique, so she suspected that she was wearing antiques.

Forsythia has some accomplishments in dressing. Although modern clothes are paired with classical jewelry, they are not inconsistent at all, but have a special charm.

After Lin Mai said hello to Chen Feng, he praised Forsythia a few words.

Forsythia is indifferent.

Lin Mai didn't put his warm face on her cold butt, and introduced Fang Zhuoran and Chen Feng.

Fang Zhuoran generously stretched out his hand to shake hands with Chen Feng: "I have admired your name for a long time. Thank you for helping my wheat family several times."

Chen Feng shook hands with him very perfunctorily: "You're welcome, she is my good friend and partner, and I help her because of my friendship with her."

Fang Zhuoran heard the provocation in his words and emphasized with a smile: "No matter what your motives are, you are helping my wheat, so I have to thank you."

Chen Feng turned his face away unhappily.

Intellectuals are really annoying.

Fang Zhuoran didn't care at all about his reaction.

He glanced at the cool girl next to him and guessed she was Forsythia.

Thinking of what Lin Mai had said to him, when Forsythia came back, Chen Feng would go to his dinner.

So he asked: "I want to treat you to a meal to thank you. I wonder when you will be free."

Chen Feng thought for a while: "You can wait until all the goods from the customs of Maizi are out of the hands before you invite them."

Fang Zhuoran nodded in agreement.

As soon as 6:56 arrived, Chen Feng lit the opening firecrackers on time.

That string of firecrackers was connected in series with several tens of thousands of firecrackers, and it took more than a quarter of an hour to explode.

Chen Feng not only arranged the whip-explosion session, but also asked his younger brother to perform a lion dance.

The lion dance and whip blasting were performed at the same time, the gongs and drums were noisy, and the sound of whips was deafening, attracting many people to watch.

While watching this, I saw the opening promotion announcement posted at the door of the market.

The notice with black letters on the red paper read: Anyone who purchases more than 50 cents at the market today will receive a pound of cabbage as a gift.

This season is the fastest growing season for Chinese cabbage. A batch of Chinese cabbage can be grown in one month, so the purchase price of Chinese cabbage is very low.

But if you give it to customers as gifts, they will be very happy.

What's more, in this era of planned economy, there has never been a situation of giving gifts when buying something.

Even for a handful of cabbage, the people watching were willing to enter the market to buy vegetables.

You can get free gifts for only 50 cents. The threshold is so low that it is easy to achieve.

Who doesn’t buy a few cents of vegetables to eat every day?

After a while, the market was filled with people.

Lin Mai and Fang Zhuoran went in and took a look around.

As soon as you enter, you will see a delicatessen selling steamed buns and Hanamaki buns. Many customers line up in front of the steaming stall to buy.

The food court is clean and tidy, and there are several cleaning staff wearing yellow work clothes who have been doing hygiene and keeping the floor clean.

Behind each vegetable stall stood a salesperson wearing red work clothes, all with a smile on his face.

There are a wide variety of agricultural products in the vegetable market.

Vegetables, meat, poultry, eggs...all are available.

There are dozens of kinds of local fruits and fruits from other places, which is impossible to appear in other state-owned vegetable markets.

There are also many types of seafood, including not only all kinds of dried seafood, but also seafood such as hairtail, prawns, and skinned fish.

It's a hot day now, and the transport of hairtail, shrimp and skinned fish from the coast will smell bad.

But when Lin Mai smelled it, there was no peculiar smell, which meant it was still fresh.

She pointed to the types of seafood and asked Chen Feng: "How are these kept fresh and transported here?"

"Of course it's shipped on ice to keep it fresh. Is there a second way?"

"How much ice do you need? It costs a lot of money to buy ice."

"Although I spent a lot of money to buy ice, there has been a bumper harvest of all kinds of seafood along the coast this year. All these common marine fish are at cabbage prices. On average, the cost has not increased."

Lin Mai nodded slightly and said, "Go and contact the cold storage to see if you can rent a place.

Taking advantage of the fact that agricultural products along the coast are cheap now, let’s buy as much as possible, freeze them in the icehouse, and put them into the market during the National Day and Chinese New Year. We will definitely make a fortune.”

Chen Feng said hello.

Lin Mai thought for a while and then said: "If you encounter dried seafood at cabbage prices, try to bring back some. Anyway, we have a warehouse. These dried seafood can be placed in the warehouse after being brought in."

Chen Feng nodded again.

Forsythia was very unhappy on the sidelines. When did the man she looked up to become someone else's follower?

Lin Mai walked to the store selling dried seafood.

The kelp was piled high, but even so, the customers were rushing to buy it as if they were afraid they wouldn't be able to buy it.

Mainly, the high-quality and low-priced kelp is only available in inland cities during New Years and holidays, and the quantity is limited.

Linmai's market is now open for sale, and the price is only a little more expensive than the price at the state-owned market. Who wouldn't rush to buy it?

Lin Mai was afraid of a stampede accident, so he said to Chen Feng: "This kelp cannot be sold openly like this, the purchase must be restricted, and each person can only buy one pound.

Otherwise, I would be anxious because I would not be able to buy the ones behind me, so I would jump in line and push forward. If the queue becomes chaotic, something could easily happen."

Chen Feng immediately called a younger brother. He stood in front of the kelp stall and shouted with a loudspeaker: "Because there are too many customers buying kelp, from now on, each person is limited to one pound.

But there will still be stock tomorrow, and it will be available every day from now on, so you don’t have to worry about not being able to buy it.”

The customers at the back of the queue were relieved. The kelp as high as a hill was limited to one pound per person. It was their turn and they should be able to buy it.

Fang Zhuoran still had to go to work, so the two of them walked around and left the market.

Forsythia then said to Chen Feng with a straight face: "Boss, let's go it alone."

"Why?"

"I don't want you to be someone else's lackey and follow other people's orders."

"Are you asking me to burn bridges across the river?" Chen Feng's face was cold, "Don't even think about it!"

Forsythia felt very unhappy after hearing this.

He was good for Chen Feng, but he just wanted to protect Lin Mai silently!
