Chapter 247 Someone is playing tricks behind his back

CIC Media has become the largest media company in the industry. Everything in the company is on track, so Xu Mei's usual work is not too busy. This afternoon, she received a phone call from Han Feng saying that he would go home for dinner in the evening, and Xu Mei came back when the company just got off work.

Xu Mei drove the car into the community and did not go home, but went directly to a large vegetable market next to the community.

Han Feng hasn't gone home for dinner for a long time. He has been very busy during this period. Xu Mei knows and can understand. The moment Han Feng said he would come back for dinner, Xu Mei was thinking about what to buy. At this time, she is completely a standard housewife.

The large-scale vegetable parity market next to Xu Mei community is one of the best in Chaozhong District. The single area is so large and scary. I heard that it is full of four or five thousand square meters. Moreover, the most attractive thing is that the vegetable prices here are very affordable and cheap. The same green vegetables are only sold for 1.5 yuan per catty in the affordable market, in the super It should be sold for at least 2.5 yuan per catty in the market.

Therefore, there are many customers who come to buy vegetables in the affordable market every day, especially in the morning and evening. The vegetable market is even more crowded, where everyone can buy fresh dishes that they are satisfied with.

Although Xu Mei is not short of money, the variety of green and meat dishes here is rich and fresh. She can often buy her favorite dishes here, so she chose to come here to buy dinner dishes.

Sure enough, Xu Mei walked around and had already carried a few large bags of materials and meat dishes in her hand. Each dish was usually liked by Han Feng.

When she was about to go out, Xu Mei remembered that Han Feng liked to eat garlic fried dishes, but she didn't have them at home. She went to a stall, picked a few pieces of garlic, handed them to the boss's wife, and then took out two yuan from her wallet.

After the boss's wife weighed the garlic, she put the garlic in a bag, and then handed it to Xu Mei and said, "It's 6 yuan in total."

Xu Mei's eyes were looking at the stall to see if there were any dishes that she would cook. Hearing her parents' words, she raised her head in surprise and said, "What?"

Although Xu Mei doesn't often buy vegetables, even a fool can see that this five or six garlic costs six yuan? On average, a piece of garlic costs one yuan? This is really more expensive than pork. Although Xu Mei is not short of money, she can't be killed for no reason.

The boss's wife of the vegetable stall saw Xu Mei's surprised expression and her eyes looking at her scales, so she quickly opened her mouth and explained, "Sister, it's 13 yuan per catty of garlic."

"13 yuan?" Xu Mei took a breath of cold air. She remembered that the garlic was only three or four yuan some time ago. How did it rise to 13 yuan at once?

"Hey! Girl, you don't know! Last week, we bought this garlic for less than 3 yuan. Just a few days ago, the price was like a rocket, and it jumped to the purchase price of 12 yuan per catty. I'm just making you a dollar per catty." The boss's wife sighed and said helplessly.

"No way?" Xu Mei said in surprise.

"Yes, this beautiful girl, we bought goods together here, and the price for us is 12 yuan, which is expensive. What kind of world do you think this is? The high price of this 'garlic' has just passed more than a year, and now it's coming again, hey!" When the owner of the vegetable stall next door heard the conversation here, he couldn't help but complain and said.

"Sister, let me tell you, now not only garlic is expensive, but also ginger, mung beans and other things have begun to return to the price of a year ago, even more expensive than a year ago." The boss's wife said.

"Hi! What is this?" The owner of the food stall next door said, "The prices of apples, oranges and pears are almost twice as high as in previous years. Nowadays, it's easy to spend money, but it's hard to make money!"

In a luxurious office, Liu Yi was sitting on an equally luxurious leather boss chair. He was wearing a white suit and leaning lazily on the back of the boss's chair, with his eyes slightly closed and a relaxed face.

In front of Liu Yi's desk, a middle-aged man was standing respectfully. The middle-aged man lowered his head slightly and looked like a slave. Take a closer look, this middle-aged man turned out to be Nangong Desheng, the eldest uncle of Nangong Shuiyue!

"Nangong Desheng, how's it going outside now?" Liu Yi opened his eyes and looked at Nangong Desheng standing in front of him and asked.

Nangong Desheng raised his head and said, "Mr. Hui, we just took out the hoarded garlic some time ago, and now we maintain the price of the wholesale market at 11.5 yuan per catty. The price of the outside vegetable market is between 13 yuan and 14 yuan. There are also ginger, mung beans, apples, snow pears and oranges we bought. The prices we wholesale to suppliers are maintained between 20 and 30 times our purchase price.

"Well," two bright lights shot out of Liu Yi's eyes, and the joy on his face was beyond words.

"Desheng, you did a good job this time." Liu Yi stood up from the chair, walked to him, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, the position of the owner of Nangong will soon be yours."

"Thank you, Master!" Nangong Desheng said with a trace of joy on his face and said gratefully.

In the restaurant at Xu Mei's home, Xu Mei, Han Feng and Xu Lili were sitting at this time. There were several home-cooked dishes on the table, which were full of color, fragrance and were extremely attractive. But it was strange that the three of them were not eating. Xu Mei and Xu Lili stared at Han Feng curiously.

And Han Feng was talking about something with his mouth moving.

"Lili, you just said that the price of garlic is affected by supply and demand, which is completely wrong." Han Feng looked at Xu Lili and said.

"Impossible?" Xu Lili said puzzledly, "This is the principle of Marxist economics. I have studied politics in high school. How can it be wrong?"

"Marx's economic theory is certainly correct, but it is wrong to apply Marx's relationship between supply and demand to the price of garlic." Han Feng pointed to a piece of garlic in the dish and said.

"Why?" Xu Lili became interested, and a pair of open-eyed boss asked.

"Because someone is playing tricks behind their backs." Han Feng said calmly.

"What do you mean?" Xu Mei and Xu Lili asked in surprise at the same time.
