National Tide 1980

July 1, 1982, is a special day.

Because this day is not only the Party Founding Day, but also the day when the Republic launches the third census since the founding of the People's Republic of China, with zero o'clock as the standard time.

And on the same afternoon, at the three-way intersection under the Qianmen building in the capital, a new thing that belonged to the private sector also happened.

That was before the rush hour, a large Jiefang truck actually drove up and parked slowly on the east side of the three-way intersection.

According to common sense, this truck is not delivering goods to the shops on the roadside, but it should be pulling goods.

But in fact, these two things are not even close to each other.

Because then, two people got out of the back of the truck and opened the back compartment.

They hung a piece of red silk cloth with white characters on a red background on the fenders on both sides of the car.

It says "manufacturer clearance, price reduction".

They are actually here to sell goods!

This situation is really new. No one has seen such sales this year!

This is really easy to deal with. He dares to open his business just by using a rag as a cover!

Besides, aren’t factory products always sold in stores?

How did this happen to them?

So from now on, shops are not allowed to drink northwest wind?

It is precisely because of such strangeness and the fact that it is on the most conspicuous road in the downtown area that this car has become the focus of pedestrians' eyes.

Unconsciously, many people stopped and stopped to take a look.

At least you need to understand what they are selling?

In fact, within five minutes, there were dozens of people behind the Jiefang train.

These people crowded together and rushed to take a look inside the carriage. What did they see?

Good guy, boxes of cardboard were poured out of the car, which were piled high. Apart from men’s and women’s plastic slippers, they were just Jiefang shoes.

Those are very difficult-to-sell varieties in stores.

No wonder, manufacturers are forced to come here to sell their goods, which are all unsalable junk!

At this point, these onlookers have satisfied their curiosity and are about to leave.

However, something even more unexpected happened.

Because at this moment, someone in the car actually took out a Sanyo "dual SIM card and four speakers".

Open the switch openly and let a loud voice play in a loop.

"Take a look, take a look! Big discounts, huge clearance sale!"

"If you're passing by, don't miss it! Factory direct sales, a rare opportunity! For one day only, it's all down!"

"Jiefang shoes, two pairs for five yuan! Men's and women's slippers, three pairs for five yuan! The price is off the charts!"

What? Jiefang shoes cost two pairs for five yuan?

That’s two dollars and a half for a pair!

Why is it so cheap?

It costs four yuan less in the store!

One drop to the bottom? This is indeed a jump-off price!

So the passers-by who originally just wanted to see the excitement and were about to disperse immediately had a positive reaction.

Under the words of "discount", "clearance", "one day only", everyone couldn't help but rush in again. Everyone started asking about the price, and they all had the desire to buy.

This phenomenon is not surprising.

Because these days, nothing is more attractive than a cheap price!

Everyone has a habit of thinking that there are many people in our country who are short of things.

Commodity prices are set by the state, and there are rarely discounts.

It's not easy to find a store that has a sale. Even if you catch it, it will only be 80 cents cheaper.

To be able to get a dollar cheaper by such a large margin is definitely a good thing that comes only once and for all.

If you don't need it anymore, you can buy it back first, save it for yourself for later use, or pass it on to relatives and friends who haven't caught up yet.

Even the clothes are the same.

Regardless of whether clothing is popular or not.

But in a society that has just been wiped out by chemical fiber fabrics.

Except for young men and women who want to be beautiful and handsome, other people don't follow fashion very much. How can they be so particular about it?

What's more, in the era when our light industry was just starting, buying clothes and shoes was still a relatively large expense in daily consumption.

And this situation will exist for a long time.

So more people, because of their meager salaries, must consider prohibition and cost-effectiveness as their primary considerations when buying clothes.

Even if the color or style is not suitable, sometimes it can be dealt with.

Do we still need to talk about public things?

No matter what, the quality is indeed guaranteed.

In short, it is out of trust in the public and the habit of living on a budget that everyone is so happy to open their pockets that are not very bulging.

No, I'm not worried about a "skinny wolf" squeezing in from behind.

Before he took out the money, he raised his voice in the chaos and asked the two sellers specifically.

"Is this yours from a public company? Which factory is it from? Why are the trademarks of these things so different?"

As a result, the seller who had just got off the car came back hard.

"Nonsense! How can it not be a public company? Your family has a car? How can a self-employed person eat so many goods? Yes, the trademarks are different, but so what? Our factory produces two different products, so naturally there are two Kind of a trademark. What’s so strange about that?”

The other handsome guy who stayed in the car and was polite was more polite.

"Comrade, we are busy here, don't joke. If nothing else, look at our prices. How cheap are they? Jiefang shoes are only two and a half yuan, which is thirty cents cheaper than the factory price. You can find them all over the capital. , which store sells it for less than three and a half yuan, I will give you two pairs for free. Can we not be a public company? You are so funny! How dare a self-employed person do this? You can't pay with your life!"

Amidst the sparse laughter of the onlookers behind him, "Skinny Wolf" felt embarrassed.

However, I was still a little worried and asked again.

"Then why do you buy them so cheaply? Is there anything wrong with the stuff?"

Unexpectedly, the young man in the car responded immediately, and the reason was reasonable.

"What else could be wrong? Isn't it clearly written on the banner? Clearance sale! Our factory has received foreign trade orders, and we will no longer make such unprofitable things. Then the warehouse will not be enough. Of course it has to be vacated come out……"

At this time, the man under the car was impatient and urged him very rudely.

"I said, if you want to buy, then buy it. If you don't want to buy, don't ask around. Why don't you act like a leader here and not be busy? We have no obligation to report to you..."

Okay, this is called a horizontal, this is called a cow.

Moreover, as he spoke, the master picked up a teapot and took a sip like a leering man.

Hey, this is a standard state-owned company, not running away.

But people are so mean, and the more they behave like this, the more everyone feels like that.
