The new idiom was born in the birthplace of "lantern damage assessment".
On the eve of May Day, this "upside down and selling bamboo shoots" happened in Shangrao, Jiangxi. This Shangrao, but it's a place with a story, and the previous "lantern damage assessment" came out of here.
The 85-year-old man, before the opening, was charged 10 yuan for the booth.
This time, the protagonist of the story is an 85-year-old man. The old man was selling bamboo shoots at the entrance of the vegetable market, and before it opened, he was charged a stall management fee of 10 yuan by the market administrator.
Even if it is all sold out, it will have to lose 2 yuan.
The old man's bamboo shoots only sold for 1.5 yuan a catty, and he only earned seven or eight yuan after selling them. You said that the 10 yuan booth fee, how many bamboo shoots do the old people have to sell to earn it back?
Netizens write poems: Selling bamboo shoots.
As soon as this incident came out, netizens exploded. Someone joked: "What does this market administrator think, just take a few catties of bamboo shoots from the old man to offset the booth fee, isn't it over?" and some netizens made up limericks, they are really talented!
The giant panda, a national treasure, can't stand it.
Of course, some netizens are worried about the livelihood of the elderly in the future, after all, the 10 yuan booth fee is not a small amount for the elderly. The giant panda, a national treasure, couldn't stand it anymore and said it was very angry.
Under pressure from the media, refunds.
Fortunately, this matter still has a happy ending in the end. It is reported that after investigation, it was learned that it was the property staff of the farmers' market who collected the stall fee, and the 10 yuan was also refunded.
"Selling bamboo shoots upside down" reflects three major problems:
Although this matter has come to an end, the problems reflected in it are not over.
First, the survival of the elderly in rural areas. The old man worked hard all day, and the bamboo shoots he collected were finally sold out in the market, but he found that after paying the 10 yuan booth fee, he lost two yuan.
Second, rural insurance is too expensive. At the end of the year, he still has to worry about the 380 yuan insurance premium, not to mention that the cost may rise next year.
Third, pensions vary too much. Some people receive tens of thousands of pensions every month after retirement and live without worry, while some people have an annual income of only a few hundred yuan and struggle to survive.
The per capita deposit is 500,000 yuan, and the interest alone is 10,000 yuan a year, which is easier than selling bamboo shoots.
When some netizens saw this scene, they couldn't help but ridicule helplessly: "Why not rent out the idle house and collect a stable rent? Now the per capita deposit is 500,000 yuan, and the interest alone is 10,000 yuan a year, which is easier than working hard to sell bamboo shoots. Doesn't the old grandfather have these conditions at home?"
