Chapter 0085 - Small Merchant Hawker (1/2)
The Fuxing Farmers' Market is under the management of the Guhu Sub-district Committee, and a trading and distribution center for agricultural and sideline products has been established, and the operation of mobile vendors has been concentrated on rectifying the occupation of the road by mobile vendors to alleviate the behaviors that damage the appearance of the city.
The standardization of market sales management greatly facilitates the shopping and consumption of urban residents, and at the same time concentrates merchants in a unified market, so that the entire city street is more spacious and tidy.
However, there are still some peasant vegetable vendors, who operate at a small cost and cannot afford to rent a shop in the market, so they carry vegetables and buy and sell them in the streets and alleys around the market through carriers such as carrying burdens or three-wheelers.
Because of the unified operation and management of the market, the merchants are leasing into the market, therefore, the shops in the major farmers' markets are very popular, take the Fuxing farmers' market as an example, the passage distance between the shops, is about one meter and a half spacing, more than 3,000 square meters of vegetable fields, nearly 100 merchants do vegetable business.
There are also shops around the storefronts of chicken, duck, fish and other merchants, as well as dry goods such as tea, rice, oil and salt, and other grains, which are full of the entire Fuxing Farmers' Market.
In this way, disputes between merchants, or disputes between merchants and customers, and the normal operation of the market require a functional department such as market management.
Of course, generally speaking, the transactions and competition in the farmers' market are healthy and orderly, and disputes are very rare, after all, everyone is a good and law-abiding citizen.
Moreover, even those itinerant traders understand that they cannot enter the market to do business without paying market management fees and market stall rental fees, so the itinerant individual traders are setting up stalls in the surrounding area to sell some side dishes, and at the end of the day, even if they can't make a few dollars, they finally have a livelihood to make a living.
However, today, a young man with a strange face actually pushed a cart of vegetables on a tricycle and went directly to the market.
This completely undermines the market management regulations, so what does this make other merchants think? The young man violated the market regulations.
It must be stopped severely, strictly, and seriously!
The market administrator was an old man of fifty or sixty years old, wearing a red armband on his arm, pulling a young man pushing a tricycle, not letting him in, and accusing the young man of doing something wrong, and realizing that it was a serious mistake, that it was not a dish for the market merchants, and that it was not allowed to be sold inside, but if it was to be sold, it was outside the market.
The old man drove Yu Wufeng outside with righteous and stern words, and pointed to the side of the street, those vegetable vendors who set up stalls, as if they were pointing out a clear road for Yu Wufeng.
In fact, those small traders and hawkers are also very unstable when they do business on the roadside, because every once in a while, there are chengguan patrolling here, and it is strictly forbidden to occupy the road on both sides of the road.
Yu Wufeng smoked cigarettes for the old man, said good things, did him a favor, let him in, and wholesaled all the vegetables to the merchants inside, but the old man just admitted to death, and always refused to let him go, saying that this was not in line with the rules, unless the merchant who bought these vegetables was called out, it was almost the same.
How is it possible to call out the merchants who buy groceries?
Yu Wufeng doesn't know the merchants who do vegetable business inside, and there is another point, those merchants have their own purchase channels, this market can be said to be established to run, and the daily sales volume is regular, forming a saturated state.
Vegetables this kind of product, every more day of hoarding, the quality will drop a little, if there is too much purchase, unsalable vegetables will be festering, resulting in more economic losses, the profit of vegetable trading is not high, there is a little loss, the merchants are not hurt.
The two were arguing at the door of the vegetable market, some of the eldest sisters and aunts who went in and out of the vegetable market to buy vegetables or something, they were all curious to see, one or two middle-aged women came over, picking and choosing, and seemed to be very satisfied with the vegetables of the little three wheels, and their faces were happy.
The green pepper is green and slender, straight, emerald green, the color is very fresh and good-looking, the skin of the eggplant looks old, but the whole eggplant is thick and round, and the purple skin is smooth.
The vegetables on the small three wheels, whether they are eggplants or green peppers, are about the same size, and they grow neatly and brightly, unlike some green peppers, which are big at one end and small at the end, and the fat and thin are uneven.
Dishes are just like people, if you look beautiful and get close to the people you like, you will be more.
At the very least, the food in this cart looks soothing and attracts the attention of some passing customers.
Merchants who do dry goods business near the entrance of the farmers' market have come to see the excitement, they do business in the vegetable market every day, and they can see at a glance that the quality of the vegetables pulled by the young people is indeed of the highest quality, and they are amazed, but it is a pity that they operate in different categories.
"Young man, how do you sell these green peppers?" An eldest sister grabbed the green pepper and asked.
"How much is a pound of eggplant?" Someone has an eggplant in his hand.
"Oh, there's still corn, and the tender corn is out, is it about selling or catty?"
"Why do you sell pumpkin? Young man, will you be in business? ”
The old man of the market management was not allowed to enter, at this time, some customers came around, Yu Wufeng hurriedly greeted, and said with a smile: "Three green peppers, two eggplants, and three pumpkins!" ”
Yu Wufeng added five cents per catty to the price of vegetables sold to "Good Again" yesterday, plus the price of vegetables from Feilong Supermarket as a reference, this vegetable price should be acceptable to the public, but I don't know what price these vegetables sell in the farmers' market, but it is estimated that it should be about the same, and the price difference is only a few cents.
Yu Wufeng thought for a while and said: "This corn, for every ten catties of green peppers or eggplants you buy, you will get two corn!" ”
Generally speaking, most of the vegetables sold in family life are in the range of two or three catties, and those who can buy about five catties are the big customers, and if you buy ten catties at a time, you have to eat for several days.
However, this is also a helpless thing, this cart of dishes, more than yesterday, more than 100 catties, if you want to sell two or three catties, it is too time-consuming.
Sure enough, as soon as Yu Wufeng's words came out, they immediately aroused the dissatisfaction of the customers gathered around, and they said, "We buy so many vegetables, how can we eat them, if we can't eat them for a long time, they won't be fresh, young man, you sell two or three catties, they are all sold anyway." ”
In fact, these customers have heard the misunderstanding, and Yu Wufeng didn't say that if it is less than ten catties, it will not be sold.
"Let's buy ten catties of green peppers! Weigh it in! ”
At this time, the two sisters discussed it, and it seemed that it was a very good way to buy ten catties together, send two corns, one for each person, and peel off the corn kernels to cook porridge to eat.
With the two of them taking the lead, some other customers followed suit and bought green peppers, eggplants, and vegetable pumpkins together, of course, some of them bought for the corn, and some of them saw that the car of dishes was good, and they didn't buy many satisfactory vegetables in the vegetable market, so they decided to join the buying team.
Misunderstanding is misunderstanding, it is a good thing to be able to sell these dishes as soon as possible, Yu Wufeng was secretly happy in his heart, and he no longer explained.
Yu Wufeng hurriedly borrowed an electronic scale from the merchant next to him, he didn't prepare plastic bags, but fortunately, these aunts, aunts and sisters who bought vegetables brought their own shopping bags, and they didn't care that the young people didn't provide plastic bags for vegetables.
Yu Wufeng put the electronic scale on the tricycle, busy weighing green peppers, eggplants, pumpkins for customers, and also hitched two corns from time to time.
Yu Wufeng is like a small merchant and hawker, just shouting to solicit business, at this time he is busy for all kinds of customers, weighing and selecting good vegetables, even if there are only three dishes on this small three wheels, some weigh two or three catties are also picky and picky, and they are very busy, in fact, they are all about the same size, but these customers have to pick and choose.
Sai Xiaoyu is one of the merchants of Fuxing Farmers' Market, operating melons, fruits and vegetables, from the beginning of the establishment of the market, he began to lease shops to do business, for five years, do smoothly, every morning to pick up the goods, rain or shine, transported to the market retail, business is doing well.
However, today Sai Xiaoyu went to several greenhouses that had been supplied in the past, and the results were not ideal, affected by the drought, some vegetable farmers either reduced vegetable production, or the price was too high.
In this way, Sai Xiaoyu ran early in the morning, he should have returned to the market at six o'clock and started business, but he tossed until almost eight o'clock, and then rushed back on three wheels on the fire.
Over the years, it has been very difficult to do a small business, and Sai Xiaoyu has been doing vegetable business for five years and has a deep experience.
