Manufacturing Empire in the Valley

Chapter 43 Market Economy and Preservation of Value

In the past, Niu Xiaoqiang was too stupid to learn how to ride a bicycle.Niu Xiaoqiang has been very efficient in everything he has done since his mind was opened, so he thinks it is not difficult.

When he really started to learn, he realized that learning to ride a bicycle is a test of balance and coordination of the body, and it has little to do with IQ. As long as he is not too stupid to be hopelessly stupid, he should be able to learn .

Because he underestimated the enemy too much, Niu Xiaoqiang suffered a big loss at the beginning. After he controlled the front of the car, he felt good about himself, and he took the initiative to tell the three friends behind him who were supporting the car: "Let go."

When the three of them heard this, they all let go of their hands, and the bicycle fell down after sliding less than two meters forward. Niu Xiaoqiang groaned, being pinned down by the bicycle, he couldn't help yelling: "Hiss, it hurts so much! Get the car out of the way quickly."

The three hurriedly straightened the bicycle. Niu Xiaoqiang looked down and found that his knee had been scratched.He felt a little ashamed, and immediately got up: "I don't believe I can't learn!"

In the next half an hour, Niu Xiaoqiang gradually adapted to the sense of balance when riding a bicycle, and became more and more proficient in the coordination of the body, the more he practiced, the more it looked like this.But he also paid a price, fell a total of five times during this period, and scratched the skin on his arms and back.

Niu Huahua originally wanted to persuade him to pay attention to safety and not try to ride by himself so soon, but Niu Xiaoqiang made her speechless with a few words: "If you want to learn to ride a bicycle, you must not be timid, and you must not be afraid of falling. Yes, if you don't let go, you always help me, I can only learn it in a monkey year?"

Niu Xiaoyong agreed with this very much: "Brother Qiang is right. Learning to drive is actually the same as learning to walk. Didn't we learn to walk after falling many times when we were young?"

Seeing that Niu Xiaoqiang was covered in dust, Niu Xiaodong suggested, "Brother Qiang, why don't you take a rest before continuing?"

This time Niu Xiaoqiang didn't object. He really felt quite tired. He immediately supported the bicycle stand, and the four of them climbed to the tall straw pile to enjoy the cool breeze.

The four looked up at the starry sky.The stars in the sky are bright, the outline of the Milky Way is clearly visible, and it looks with a touch of illusory beauty.The four of them felt very comfortable while listening to the sound of frogs croaking from the valley while blowing the cool breeze.

After indulging in the warm atmosphere for a while, Niu Xiaodong spoke first: "Xiaoyong, if you make money, what are you going to do with it?"

Niu Xiaoyong smirked heartlessly: "I've wanted to buy white rabbit toffee for a long time, and then I'll buy seventeen or eight bags of it, and then eat it standing up, walking, lying down, or lying on my stomach. , you can eat whatever you want, tsk tsk, what a wonderful life this is! Xiaodong, what are your plans?"

Niu Xiaodong licked his dry lips: "Of course I also buy food, but instead of buying white rabbit milk candies, I buy malted milk extract. I heard that this stuff not only tastes good, but also nourishes the body. For me It’s the most suitable for people with a small physique... Then what’s the matter—by the way, it’s nutritional supplements.”

Niu Xiaoyong then asked: "Xiaohua, what are your plans?"

Niu Huahua squinted his eyes with a smile: "I'm going to buy a beautiful dress for my mother, the kind made of high-quality fabrics, and buy a watch for my dad with the extra money. The watch must be of the plum brand. I will buy an electric fan for myself, so that I don’t have to work hard to fan the fan when the weather is hot. The electric fan must be a diamond brand. My uncle’s house has a diamond brand electric fan. It looks like It's very stylish."

Niu Xiaodong couldn't help laughing and said: "Xiao Hua, your heart is really big enough. Clothes made of good quality fabrics are easy to say, but Plum Blossom brand watches are not so easy to buy. I went to visit relatives at my grandfather's house during Chinese New Year last year. His hand There is a Plum Blossom brand watch in the house. I heard him say that this kind of watch can only be bought with indicators. If you have money and no indicator, people will not sell it to you. This kind of indicator is much more difficult to buy than buying fine cloth tickets. , Besides, 20 years ago, Plum Blossom brand watches cost dozens of dollars. It is said that only senior leaders can equip them. Although I don’t know the current price, it is more expensive than before, right? Xiaohua , are you sure you can make so much money?"

Niu Xiaoyong interjected: "Watches are as expensive as electric fans? I heard that the cheapest electric fans cost tens of dollars, the slightly more expensive ones cost more than 100 yuan, and the best floor fans can be sold for more than 200 yuan." It is obviously more expensive than a watch, right? By the way, when I went to the county market with my dad last time, I saw several brands of electric fans in the county supply and marketing cooperative. The brand is also quite good, the key is that these two types of electric fans can shake their heads, which are much more stylish than the diamond brand, Xiaohua, if you want to buy it, you should buy the two I mentioned."

Niu Xiaodong raised an objection to Niu Xiaoyong: "As long as you have money, you can buy electric fans, but you need indicators to buy watches. Although some electric fans may be a little more expensive than watches, there is no comparison between the two. Don’t you understand the truth that rare is more precious?”

Niu Xiaoyong used to be very obedient to Niu Xiaodong and listened to him in everything, but after accepting Niu Xiaoqiang's leadership, he didn't listen to Niu Xiaodong's words that much anymore. He only heard him retort: ​​"I don't agree with what you said. Scarcity is more expensive, why are watches not as expensive as electric fans?"

Hearing this, Niu Xiaodong was speechless. He found that Niu Xiaoqiang hadn't opened his mouth all this time, so he asked him for help: "Brother Qiang, come and judge. Is it the electric fan Jingui or the Plum Blossom brand watch Jingui?"

Niu Xiaoqiang has read extracurricular readings and has some understanding of the general situation of the entire market economy. He smiled and said: "There is actually no comparison between these two things. It mainly depends on the market environment. In my opinion, TV Although fans are currently selling more expensive than watches, this is only temporary. The reason is that people have too much demand for electrical appliances, and the supply is basically in short supply. As much as they are produced, they can be sold. In this case, the price is expensive One point is normal, because this is the result of the market economy."

When he said this, he changed the subject: "As for watches, the price of this kind of thing has always been stable. I don't think the price will drop much in a few years. The electric fan is different. When the production resources are abundant, the price of the electric fan The output will definitely increase, followed by a sharp drop in the price. Now you can sell more than 100 electric fans, and you may only need 40 yuan to buy them in the future. So, it is really difficult to compare the two , if there is a comparison, it can only be said that watches are more valuable than electric fans, but for now, electric fans do have the upper hand in terms of price.”
