Homo sapiens

After eating.

Fang Xinwu and his party wandered around Taungzhi City.

Unknowingly, everyone walked into the supermarket of Fengshou Home. To understand a place, the best way to see the real side is to go to the farmers' market there.

Since there are no farmer's markets or small supermarkets within the Homo sapiens company, the functions of farmers' markets and small stores have been taken over by several large supermarket chains.

So just go to the supermarket.

As soon as I entered the supermarket, there was a chilly air-conditioning.

This made the fat man Zhang, who was afraid of heat, relieved. While fanning the flames, he complained to everyone: "Homo sapiens are good everywhere, but the weather is too hot. Fat people like me really can't stand it! "

Li Shengkai took a look at the shopping area guide: "The first floor is food. Is there anything you want to buy?"

Mr. Zhang waved his hand: "Just shopping around, not necessarily buying."

The first shelf area is the vegetable area.

There is a dazzling array of vegetables, most of which are packaged, and there is a waiter who is specifically packing the items.

Looking at the numerous plastic boxes and plastic packaging, Li Shengkai asked in surprise: "Didn't Mr. Fang say that Southeast Asia is the most severely affected by the Tokyo fungus? Why do supermarkets still use a lot of plastic?"

"Because these are fast-moving consumer goods, the sales period will not exceed one week, so there is no need to worry about fungal corrosion." Fang Xinwu understood the key in an instant.

After passing the vegetable area, there is the fruit area.

It is several times larger than the vegetable area just now.

There are 15 varieties of tomatoes alone. Li Shengkai picked up a box of tomatoes with lavender lines: "0.3 yuan per kilogram..."

"Huhu... Why are there so many varieties of fruits and vegetables here?" Mr. Zhang asked Fang Xinwu curiously.

Fang Xinwu thought for a moment: "It should be preservation technology and transportation technology, or production nearby to facilitate transportation."

In fact, his guess was correct.

The reason why there are so many varieties is mainly due to technological upgrading and nearby production. Among the cities affiliated with Taunggyi City, five are specialized agricultural towns that produce a large amount of vegetables and fruits.

Nowadays, many vegetable and fruit varieties are improved to give priority to storage and transportation resistance, which will weaken the flavor of vegetables and fruits.

Several large agricultural groups such as Haitian Agriculture, based on the requirements of the headquarters, adopt the principle of proximity to establish vegetable and fruit production bases specifically for each metropolitan area.

These vegetable and fruit production bases produce vegetables and fruits that cannot be transported over long distances, so that everyone can eat fresh and delicious food.

For example, many of the 15 varieties of tomatoes in front of us are already ripe before being picked and put on the market. This can only be enjoyed around the place of origin.

Li Shengkai, who has studied in Kangaroo Country, has also seen fruits and vegetables produced by local farms, but the prices are relatively high.

But this purple-striped tomato costing 0.3 yuan per kilogram really put him off guard.

Although calculated from the indirect exchange rate, it is equivalent to about 4.8 Chinese yuan per kilogram, but this is a variety that cannot withstand transportation.

Just now he saw the kind of hard red tomatoes in the vegetable section, which cost only 0.11 yuan per kilogram.

Not believing in evil, he looked at other fruits.

In fact, he was a little confused. Comparing fruit prices with those in tropical areas was simply asking for trouble.

Mr. Zhang saw the change in this guy's mentality and deliberately provoked him: "My dear nephew, would you like some cherries?"

Seeing the box of big cherries that cost 0.43 yuan per kilogram, Li Shengkai was immediately excited: "Why are they so cheap? Southeast Asia shouldn't produce cherries, right? Can imports be so cheap?"

Fang Xinwu explained: "The foreign trade department of Homo sapiens will adjust the price. This kind of purchased fruit is usually sold with subsidies and must be retailed according to the purchased price, which is about 3 yuan per kilogram."

"Subsidy? How much does this cost per year?" Li Shengkai was almost numb.

Fang Xinwu casually mentioned a data: "According to the communiqué of the first quarter of this year, the foreign trade division of Homo sapiens has subsidized 372 types of purchased agricultural products, with a total subsidy amount of 48.1 billion gold yuan."

"..." Li Shengkai fell silent. Even though he was leaning towards the West in his heart, he felt helpless in the face of such a fierce material offensive.

Faced with the overwhelming honey from Homo sapiens companies, this is not something that ordinary people can bear. Many people are sometimes just ordinary people who only care about material things.

After all, the material foundation determines everything.

The Homo sapiens company can rely on its own industrial chain and technological advantages to artificially subsidize the price of purchased agricultural products, lowering the retail price to almost the same as that of the country of origin, but other places obviously cannot do this.

How does happiness come from?

Many people's happiness is extremely materialistic.

This is why humans pursue wealth. .

This made Li Shengkai somewhat overwhelmed.

Then Fang Xinwu said another sentence, which directly shattered the sense of superiority in Li Shengkai's heart.

"Mr. Zhang, please don't take it randomly! We don't have discounts on this kind of subsidized products."

"What?" Mr. Zhang put down the cherries in his hand: "Is this thing priced separately?"

"Well, have you seen that purple triangle symbol? The products with this symbol are all outsourced. Only employees of Homo Sapiens Company are eligible for the discounts on these products. People like us who are not employees of Homo Sapiens Company are You can only buy it at the original price.”

Mr. Zhang took a look at the packaging box. Sure enough, there was a purple triangle symbol on it, and there was a number 4.5 next to it, which meant that the real retail price of the product was 4.5 gold yuan.

And Li Haoyun, who had been silent, did not enlighten his son.

In fact, he deliberately arranged to come to the supermarket, colluding with Fang Xinwu and Mr. Zhang, in order to combat his son's high-spirited mentality from the kangaroo country and make him sober up, so as not to ruin the family business in the future.

As for whether his son would never recover due to an explosive mentality, Li Haoyun had no choice but to treat a dead horse as a living horse doctor.

Li Shengkai was shocked and became taciturn during the rest of the stroll.

However, he was still unwilling to do so and kept scanning the prices of various products on the shelves.

But the more he looked at it, the more he felt unable to refute.

From vegetables and fruits, meat, eggs, and milk to daily necessities, household appliances, skin care products, textiles, and decorations, the cost-effectiveness of Homo sapiens is the best in the world.

There is no market for LV and Chanel luxury bags within the Homo sapiens company.

Because there are a lot of similar products in Fengshuojia's supermarket, which only cost more than ten yuan.

What happiness?

This is happiness!

Once you get used to the cost-effective products of Homo sapiens, you will develop a strong sense of dependence and become unable to extricate yourself.

Only those who have lived in a Homo sapiens company know some invisible differences, and these differences are subtle and subtle.
