"Eight pieces. Auntie said.

8 pieces?

Why is it so expensive.

Zhou Yu was a little surprised.

The price of this powder, Zhou Yu probably knows a little, the things on the night snack stall, because it is the night shift, some people are open until 3/4 o'clock in the evening, plus in addition to the night snack stall, other restaurants are closed, so the things on the night snack stall are more expensive than the daytime, which Zhou Yu knows.

In addition to the night food stalls, there is also a place where the prices of things are more special.

That's the school gate.

School, are studying some students, these students are not financially able, the daily money is given by their parents, a student's daily pocket money living expenses are not few, plus now the Internet is popular, many of some students' pocket money are used in online games, or figurines and other aspects.

Because of the limited financial ability of students, the price of things at the school gate will be much cheaper than those in other places.

For example, fast food stir-fry.

The stir-fry in the commercial area outside costs 5 yuan a piece, and the one at the school gate will cost about 3 yuan.

At this price, it was a few years ago, when the heavy snow had not frozen the south, and at that time the prices in all aspects were relatively low.

Later, a catastrophic snowstorm hit the entire south, causing the south to be covered in heavy snow, and the economic prices in this place also rose rapidly with the heavy snowfall.

Zhou Yu still remembers that when he was studying, he ate a bowl of minced meat powder at the school gate for one dollar.

The kind that costs a lot and a bowl of money.

And when you eat outside, it is five yuan, and in some places it is a little more than two yuan.

After that heavy snowfall, the price of noodles outside became three yuan a bowl.

Then it goes up by one dollar every year that passes.

It's also that prices haven't risen so much in recent years.

But even so, in his hometown of Nong County, a bowl of noodles for breakfast costs 7 yuan, just ordinary minced meat noodles, if you want to eat a little better, it costs 9 yuan and 10 yuan, a fritter costs 2 yuan, and some places sell it for 3 yuan.

This restaurant street, although there is a commercial area next to it, is even closer to the school.

Walking forward on the street is the middle school, but I didn't expect this bowl of fried rice to be sold for eight yuan.

The aunt seemed to see Zhou Yu's doubts, she leaned over and whispered: "This price is actually not that I want to sell it so expensive, but that it is sold low to offend people." ”

"What do you say if you offend someone?"

Zhou Yu came to be interested.

"Everyone sells for eight yuan, and you sell five yuan or six yuan alone, isn't that offending people? Although the price is lowered, many people will come to you to buy it, but other people around you who do business will not like you, everyone will not like you, even if you sell well here, it will be difficult to continue selling here. ”

What the aunt said, Zhou Yu seemed to understand again.

Also, everyone sells for 8 yuan, and you sell 5 yuan alone, what do you let other people do?

Is it possible to sell it at a reduced price?

The key is to sell at a reduced price, and you may not be able to spell the first person to reduce the price, unless you are willing to lower it, four or three dollars.

But in this way, the price of a bowl of fried noodles is reduced to four or three yuan, how much benefit will be lost?

Benefit.

Although it is just a small bowl of fried noodles, the profit has been reduced by half, and it is inevitable that some people will choose to use other methods, such as getting black feet, using other tricks, and naturally there are various ways to make trouble, and you can't continue to do business here.

Zhou Yu nodded, understanding what the aunt meant.

Because he remembered one more thing.

The price of this thing.

It's easy to go up, but it's hard to go down.

It rose because people's hearts were not satisfied, so it rose quickly.

He still remembers that when he was in his hometown of Nong County, there were two shops selling rice noodles on the side of the street.

Most of the rice rolls in Nongxian County are priced at 3 yuan a bowl, which is a vegetarian egg, or meat.

Originally, these two shops on the street also sold at this price.

No, there was originally only one on the street, and it lasted for several months at the price of 3 yuan a bowl, and then a new one was opened here, and I don't know what the new one thinks, maybe because the other one has been selling for three yuan, and he thinks it's cheaper, so he raises the price and sells it for three yuan and five cents.

It was this price increase that triggered a price tug-of-war.

The newly opened one rose to three yuan five, and the original one saw that he had increased the price, maybe he felt that he was really selling cheap, so he also increased the price, and both of them sold three yuan and five.

The new family saw that the original one had also increased its price, so he raised the price by another price and sold it for four yuan.

These two, what do they think specifically, Zhou Yu is not very clear.

Anyway, in less than a month, the price of these two rice noodle shops has risen from the original three yuan to six yuan a piece.

Originally, when Zhou Yu occasionally passed by over there, he would buy some rice noodles here to eat, but when the price rose to six yuan, he never went to these two again.

People's competition is a constant competition to reduce prices.

The two of them are good, but when they see that others have increased their prices, they think that they are selling cheaply.

I thought to myself, if others raise the price, then I will also rise.

So the price went up.

Later, both of them closed down not long after.

Nobody went.

Maybe it's because the high price of six yuan a night is too profound in the eyes of the people around, and then gradually no one goes anymore.

It's not that you can't afford it, it's that it's not worth it.

Neither of them thought about reducing the price.

Or that it can't be lowered, and when the price is lowered after realizing this problem, there is no one left.

Including this fried noodles too.

Zhou Yu still remembers that when he just graduated, when he was working hard in Star City, he was hungry at night, and he ate fried noodles and fried rice at a street supper stall, but it was only five yuan a night.

It's only been less than two years, and that's eight dollars.

In fact, after all, it is still a matter of people's hearts.

No man is content.

Some people feel that they are losing money by doing some small traders.

I still remember when I just graduated, the first job I found was in an industrial area, the industrial area is far away from the bus station, and you have to walk 1000 meters from the bus station to that side, which is this distance, and there are some people here who run taxis here.

It's the kind of three-wheeled electric car that is changed, and when you build a shed and a seat, you can use it as a taxi.

In addition, they are also running in a nearby residential area, the distance is not far, and there are no buses passing by these roads, which is originally considered convenient for travel.

But some people feel that they have lost money by running this way.

Originally, the price of this 1,000-meter road was three yuan.

They feel that they are a big man driving and making three dollars a trip, and they are very sorry for their profession.

So the price went up, five dollars.

The most exaggerated thing is that if you cross the main road once, you have to charge an additional three yuan, and when you come back from the road, you have to add another three yuan.

……

Sorry, that seems a bit off-topic.
