2024 price rise: water and electricity bills, high-speed rail, rubber, etc., and now vegetables are also crazy, but wages do not rise

author:Past the age of dreaming

When I woke up in the morning, I was shocked by a few pictures sent by a friend. She is pictured below:

Today, I bought vegetables and found that the vegetables were 6.8 yuan and 8.8 yuan, and the vegetables couldn't climb high!

Recently, I've been busy with work, and I haven't bought much groceries. When I went to buy in the morning, I paid special attention to the price of today's dishes, and I was also surprised.

30 pounds of live sea bass, 15 pounds of lotus root, 6.5 pounds of lettuce, 15 pounds of garlic moss, and 45 pounds of pomfret ...... You really can't buy a few dishes for 100 yuan. Dual-income workers like us can't afford to eat, how can we live if we are unemployed or have low wages? It's a bit unimaginable.

Market insights

While I was buying vegetables, I noticed a middle-aged woman on the side of the stall picking up the leaves peeled off by our grocery buyers.

When the leaves were thrown on the ground, she carefully picked them up, but she was still scolded by the vegetable seller.

The vegetable seller is very fierce: "Wait too long and pick it up!" The customer is buying, you follow the pick-up, what does it look like? ”

The middle-aged woman said, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry. There are so many people picking it up, I don't pick it up now, and it will be gone later. With that, she carried a bag and walked to the next stall.

I'm curious, seeing that this aunt is dressed well, why do you pick up vegetable leaves to eat? Is it also because the dish is too expensive?

So casually ask the stall owner who sells vegetables, is this aunt picking up to feed the rabbits?

The stall owner said, "Where is feeding the rabbits?" They pick it up and eat it. Now the price of vegetables is too expensive! In fact, these leaves were not peeled for guests. But, forget it, give it to them. People like me who sell vegetables can still eat vegetables that can't be sold, and some people really can't afford to buy vegetables.

It turns out that the stall owner is also a person with a knife mouth and a tofu heart, and he is in awe!

I can't help but wonder, what is causing the rapid rise in prices now?

It turns out that our country has warned us in January that prices are going to rise. But what about even reminders? Hoarding? Unrealistic.

Oil prices have risen, the paper industry has risen, and the price of residential water has also risen by 50%. A friend joked that fortunately she bought a lot when the gold price was not too expensive and made a lot of money. But she didn't know that the price increase of gold was only in ninth place. The most outrageous price increase is the cocoa beans used to make coffee. It is equivalent to 70,000 yuan per ton, an increase of 309%. It's good that I quit coffee some time ago.

The rise in prices in a country is mainly divided into two parts

1. The continuous rise in the income of residents will lead to an increase in prices.

2. Major manufacturing enterprises, productivity can not meet the needs of the current market, supply exceeds demand.

Obviously, these two points are not in line with our national conditions of realistic price increases. The wages of Chinese workers have been the same for a decade, and there is a surplus of many manufactured products.

So what is causing the recent rise in prices?

According to the news of major media:

1. The global shortage of food and raw materials, the rise in energy prices such as natural gas, oil, and coal, and the high prices of daily non-staple foods such as vegetables and fruits have led to an increase in the cost of living.

2. The rising costs of transportation and environmental protection have pushed manufacturing enterprises to increase product prices.

3. The market released price increase information early, which led to the price increase caused by people hoarding goods.

It's hard to stock up, and I don't know what to stock up

4. The Russia-Ukraine conflict has increased the pressure on the global commodity market, with poor supply and rising transportation costs, affecting prices.

5. Because of the war, many capitals that originally invested in U.S. stocks and U.S. bonds have sold these stocks and turned to invest in assets with stronger risk resistance, such as precious metals, gold and other hard currencies, which led to a global price rise.

As ordinary people, what can we do when prices are rising?

1. Hold your money tightly, pay attention to financial management, and be cautious about starting a business and leaving your job.

2. Be more cautious about spending your money. If you don't have the necessary things, you can choose to substitute them or not buy them.

3. Increase your earning power, be good at observing and seizing opportunities to make money. Provide more security for life. It is also possible to work part-time conditionally and earn more money.

In reality, many people go to set up stalls after work

4. Eat a healthy diet, have a good body, and contribute less to the hospital. Eat more healthy foods and less junk food and snacks!

5. When there are conditions and time, we still have to keep learning more and keep the pace of the times. Opportunities are always reserved for those who have a heart.

Many people say that rising prices have a benefit, just take the opportunity to quit snacks and lose weight!

Today's topic: Have your prices gone up? Isn't it like me, buying things by spelling XX?

This year, the cake has risen from 5 to 15 yuan, and the clerk's salary has not increased, the boss has also said that he has not made any money, and he will close the store, and the landlord says that no one rents his store, so where does the money go?
