Chapter 411: Love and the Market Economy
In the afternoon, everyone will spread out and move around for a while, and then get together again in the evening.
Everyone had to admit that the return of the traffic time had to be put into the work, and the board of directors rejected everyone's intention to leave at night, not because of the fear of public security, but because of the fear of unsafe traffic. It's rare for everyone to get together once, and happiness and safety are the most important things.
At this time, the estuary base table xiàn showed its unique side.
Some people wandered around the market at the mouth of the river.
The Bayou Market is the place with the largest number of indigenous vendors of all the markets, and it is considered a specialty.
Although the vast majority of indigenous people do not know the numbers, they do know exactly how much they can get back in their hands.
They definitely knew how much rice and linen they could exchange for camphor powder and rosin blocks in their hands.
This is because firstly, the price given by the Hantang Group itself is fair, and secondly, the things they cook can be exchanged for how long the whole family can eat and what kind of clothes they wear.
Even fools know how much the family is going to eat, and they are beginning to feel that they are always wrapped in sackcloth, and it is not easy to move.
Of course, it's not that they're stupid and don't know how to ask for a ticket. We all know how much rice a horse can exchange, how much linen cloth, and how many horses can exchange for a firewood knife.
The Hekou area is the only place in Taiwan where there are still supply and marketing cooperatives, and here, the technicians of the Hantang Group sometimes have to manage it, so let's take turns.
This is really no way, if it weren't for the supply and marketing cooperatives here to carry the market price, those small Ming merchants who were running around could keep the market price extremely low.
For example, they can all do a needle in exchange for a pheasant from the natives, in fact, those feathers alone are more than a few horses, not to mention if the Ming people and small merchants use small knives and the like.
The true market economy is invincible because its bottom line is human fairness.
Of course, it also has to add a lot of restrictions, force, system, technology - for example, in order to maintain sustainable development, the Han Tang Group offered a price of ten needles for a pheasant, the Ming people and small merchants were immediately dumbfounded, and the natives immediately smiled, and later rose to fifteen, until now twenty.
Of course, it is by no means to squeeze the small merchants of the Ming people to death, you can go deeper into the mountains to change, and the big market in this estuary area is at this price.
Hantang Group still needs countless bamboo utensils, come on, send bamboo baskets, bamboo baskets, bamboo tables, bamboo chairs, in exchange for the living materials you need, and you can sell them yourself.
Hantang Group also needs countless mountain goods, countless timber, and even wild fruits.
However, there are really natives who try to rob, and the idea of getting something for nothing is also inherent in human nature. But they were all sent to the northern region of Taiwan, and some of them returned to the mountain gods - this is what the Hantang group does not like to see.
Daru, the head of the police station here, said: "The price is so fair, why do you rob, rob, rob others?" Still use a knife to rebel, resist? Have you ever seen the Hantang Group rob you? If I really rob you, ten, hundred, thousand, you won't be enough to see. ”
There are many things that I can't tell you all about.
In the end, the natives learned to exchange in full seriousness and observed it conscientiously.
This market dominated by indigenous people slowly began to become active, the mountains provided endless treasures for the natives, the Han and Tang groups provided the market with what they considered to be a fair system, and the Ming merchants filled the gaps from all angles, and all of them were circulating normally.
He Yang said to Hu Liu: "Liu, look at it, don't the fuck want to plunder too much in this circulation process, the market has begun to be active, how simple is this?" When I was young, I was overwhelmed by this theory, that phenomenon—truth, always the simplest thing. ”
Hu Liu said very agreeably: "Yes, because this qiē is our own, we won't take it and run away at all." ”
He Yang and Hu Liu also came to attend the wedding, which Hu Liu strongly requested. They arranged in advance for a long time at the Xiamen Commercial Station before they came over with confidence.
Hu Liu said: "A sister has a good home, and it is not good not to participate." ”
He Yang said: "Yes, we will all have a good home." ”
At that time, the two looked at each other and smiled, Hu Liu first quickly chattered on He Yang's lips with his mouth, He Yang hugged her tightly when he returned his hand, and the two began to kiss passionately.
At that time, the two of them were in the corner of the yard, thinking that no one else saw it, who knew that the stationmaster Li Zheng unexpectedly did not take a nap at noon that day, and remembered to get up and go to the roof to tease the pigeons.
He was squinting at the roof and could see it clearly.
He immediately pouted, saying to himself, "It's disgusting, it's still a wet French kiss—it's not endless, he wants to drop something and scare them away, but he thinks about it."
The group of carrier pigeons probably thought this man was acting strangely this time, and tilted their heads to look at him together.
Stationmaster Li Zheng raised his middle finger at the pigeons and scolded in a low voice, who is rare to take care of you.
The carrier pigeons cooed and rushed at him with their butts.
At that time, he waited for a long time, and then looked again, and when it was over, he carefully came down from the ladder, and wanted to take a nap, but he was irritable and couldn't sleep.
He didn't want to attend someone else's wedding, but Team Leader Jiang asked the group members to get it, so he had to come with these two goods.
Along the way, he didn't have to deal with the two of them, or the two of them had countless things to say to each other.
It's all a fuss to see a sailboat dragging a dead whale -- and a scream to see the shark hoisting.
In this afternoon, He Yang accompanied Hu Liu to wander around the estuary market.
As soon as she entered the market, Hu Liu was attracted by the flowers placed in front of an indigenous girl. The flowers were wildflowers, of all colours, and were haphazardly inserted in bamboo tubes—the indigenous girl had not learned the art of flower arrangement, and judging by the empty bamboo tubes, she had sold some before.
Hu Liu fiddled with the wildflowers on the ground in surprise, and He Yang stretched out a finger at the little indigenous girl in the back, which meant a bunch of horse tickets.
The little indigenous girl looked at Hu Liu's favorite appearance and shook her head at He Yang.
Damn, a bouquet of broken wildflowers, how much do you want to sell?!
He Yang made an angry appearance and waved his fist at the little native girl - but the little native girl was amused by He Yang's silent anger, a small black face, and his teeth were quite white.
Okay, defeated by you, He Yang stretched out two more fingers, and the little native girl burst out laughing, and she nodded quickly.
Hu Liu finally picked a bunch, and He Yang generously took out his whale skin wallet and pulled out two horse tickets.
Hu Liu said: "It's so expensive! ”
He Yang said: "What's expensive, isn't this a pure mountain wildflower!" ”
When He Yang handed the money to the little indigenous girl with Hu Liu on his back, he glared at her angrily, and the little native girl replied with a triumphant grimace.
The two of them continued to walk into the market, where there were still many people.
They didn't notice that the little native girl had summoned a group of children from nowhere, and was whispering.
The two had just arrived at a place where they sold indigenous silver ornaments, and they were about to pick out a special style - Hu Liu was suddenly pulled at the corner of his clothes, and saw another little indigenous boy holding a bouquet of flowers and holding it vigorously to offer to her.
Hu Liu had no choice but to take it, and the little indigenous boy put his hands behind his back, twisted his body, and did not leave.
Hu Liu smiled and said, "Give me flowers?" ”
I don't know if the little indigenous boy understands it, he nods his head vigorously, but the person doesn't leave.
Fuck, it's asking for money.
He Yang hurried to give him a horse ticket, leave quickly, don't sell cute.
At this time, a group of children came up, all holding flowers in their hands, some of which had just been picked from the side of the road!
The two of them were a little panicked, and the indigenous vendor selling silver ornaments was on fire, and he shouted loudly: "Patrol, patrol!" There are people here who are forced to buy and sell!! ”
A bamboo whistle sounded in the distance, and I saw two indigenous patrolmen running quickly.
The children dispersed, and two indigenous patrolmen ran over.
The Indigenous Patrol asked, "What happened?" ”
The indigenous vendor who sold silver ornaments said: "A group of children forcibly sold flowers to two members of the Han Tang group. ”
He Yang interjected evilly: "I think this matter may have something to do with the little girl selling flowers at the entrance of the market-"
The Indigenous Patrol said respectfully, "Thank you for the information, we are diligent in investigating. ”
With that, the two indigenous patrolmen left.
Hu Liu said: "Xiaohe, people are still young-"
He Yang said seriously: "Any mistake must be punished appropriately, otherwise, the whole thing will be chaotic." ”
Hu Liu agrees with this, and she also likes He Yang's seriousness.
Two men picked out a silver ornament; looked at the black pottery pottery shop and found that it was full of daily necessities and no artworks; The aborigines' finely woven linen ornaments are coarse; There was nothing left of bamboo, so I bought a bamboo satchel - this style is still a kind of bag imitating the girls of the Han and Tang groups, and the small merchants of the Ming Dynasty bought it by hundreds; Some of the mountain goods they are not interested in; There is nothing left in the shops of the small merchant of the Ming people; The two of them were halfway gone, and when they were in no mood, they came back.
At the entrance to the market, they saw that the indigenous patrol officers appeared to be punishing a group of children by carrying baskets to take out the garbage.
He Yang saw the indigenous girl selling wildflowers carrying a garbage basket.
He Yang showed a victorious expression at her; The native girls looked at him with an angry look.
A few days later, the indigenous girl ran into the Hantang Supply and Marketing Cooperative, and she knew that it was her grandson who was on duty today.
She said: "Sun Dada, your method is really good, I sold a lot of horse tickets, you see - one, two, three, four, five horses, let's buy fruit candy and eat together, okay?" ”
Sun Qiang, who is known as drunk and not disorderly, saw the horse ticket in her little hand, smiled, and said: "Yamei, you can really do business, you can keep it, and buy a beautiful set of silver jewelry in the future." ”
Masami said, "Sun Dada, one of you is looking for a patrol officer-"
She told Sun Qiang all about the matter, and finally said, I am in business.
Sun Qiang frowned and said, "If I give you the five-horse ticket, and then let a group of people occupy the wooden village of Yamei's family, are you willing?" ”
Masami immediately said, "I don't want to! ”
"So, did you know that uncle was willing to buy flowers for a group of people?"
Masami immediately said, "He doesn't want to!" ”
"So, when others don't want to, you let a bunch of kids force him to be willing, right?
Yami thought for a while, tears fell, and said, "Yami is wrong, is Sun Dada leaving here because Yami is wrong?" I don't want you to go, I'll buy you wine to drink! ”
Sun Qiang looked at Yami, who was in tears, sighed, and said, "Yami will change if she is wrong, she is still a good child." I'm going to go into the oil business, and you'll understand later -- you should all go to school, and soon there will be a school here. ”
