Chapter 223: Pineapples are out of stock
"囡囡~"
The woman shouted loudly.
Behind the village, a vast expanse of dotted pineapple fields suddenly came into Ye Xian\'s eyes.
Ye Xian saw so many pineapples for the first time, and they were still growing. He was a little surprised, "Is this the place where pineapples are produced?"
"yes!"
The middle-aged woman proudly said: "Our Dangshan County is a famous pineapple producing area. There are no less than hundreds of pineapple farms. Every year when the pineapples are ripe, they are exported to all parts of the country. The juice is full, the taste is sour and sweet, and it is well-known!"
Ye Xian: "It\'s so good."
Isn\'t it the season when pineapples are ripe? No wonder she smelled a faint fruity aroma, sour and sweet.
It\'s too bad, it\'s the feeling of wanting to eat.
"Mother!"
When she heard her mother\'s call, she turned to look at her, "What\'s the matter?"
"Come here to eat water chestnuts! Big brother will give you water chestnuts!"
"Caltrop!"
"Water chestnut! Water chestnut!"
Water chestnut is a wild snack that children love to see in the countryside. When they heard that there is water chestnut to eat, everyone rushed over.
Ye Xian sorted out the water chestnuts in the bag one by one, "Everyone is lined up, I see who hasn\'t got it yet?"
She looked around at the children, and at the end of the pineapple field, she saw a taciturn little boy with his head bowed.
Other children happily ran over to grab water chestnuts to eat, why is he so calm?
"You don\'t like water chestnut?"
Ye Xian walked in front of him, the boy was only surprised when he saw her, and soon dejected again, "I like to eat, but I\'m not in the mood."
A kid in his teens, talking like an adult, Ye Xian was a little amused, "Who made you unhappy?"
"No one makes me unhappy, but my mother."
"Then why is mom unhappy?"
"Because our pineapples can\'t be sold this year."
"Can\'t sell?"
Ye Xian thought of what the woman said to her just now, "How could it be? Isn\'t Dangshan pineapple very famous?"
"Yes, but in the past two years, the neighboring county has also started to grow pineapples, and those cunning distributors have started to squeeze and exploit both sides, reducing the wholesale price to the lowest, so low that the farmers are not able to make money at all, and the price has not been negotiated several times. It has been unsalable in the field. In fact, the pineapples are the most delicious now, and after a while, I am afraid they will go bad..."
"How low is the price?"
"They only give thirty cents a catty."
"Sanmao?"
Ye Xian was stunned.
Usually, a two or three catties of pineapples cost more than ten yuan in the market, and the average price is three or four yuan per catty. Even if it is wholesaled in large quantities, the minimum is one or two yuan. How do these unscrupulous businessmen charge 30 cents for cabbage? of? Oh no, it\'s dishonorable, cabbage costs more than 30 cents a catty.
"Dangshan doesn\'t have its own sales channels?"
"There is a Dangshan pineapple online store on Zero Degree, but because of the high advertising costs, the farmers can\'t afford it, and there is no exposure. The main sales channel of pineapples in our village has always been through the hands of those dealers. My mother said that because Due to our over-reliance, the pineapples in Dangshan have been monopolized by these profiteers."
Zero degrees?
Ye Xian\'s eyelids twitched.
Isn’t that the e-commerce platform of Er Ge Company?
"How many acres of pineapples are there in Nadang Mountain?"
"Thousands of acres."
"Thousands of acres are all unsalable?"
The little boy wiped his tears and nodded, "Hmm! Most of them are unwilling to compromise with profiteers."
"Hey, don\'t cry~"
Ye Xian stroked his head.
