    ?

    The crowd couldn't cross the bridge, so they raised their feet and scolded Xu Yishan anxiously.

    Regardless of Xu Yishan's dignified deputy mayor, they dug out all eighteen generations of his ancestors and scolded him.

    Xu Yishan turned a deaf ear to it. Like a boulder, he stood firmly at the head of the bridge, letting the scolding everywhere, and remained unmoved in the slightest.

    Old Sun leaned over and said: "Mayor Xu, these people are too immoral. Don't they know that you are doing it for their own good? Or, I will lead someone to arrest those who scolded the most."

    Xu Yishan smiled generously and said: "It's okay, the common people have resentment in their hearts, and a few words of scolding won't kill them. Let them scold."

    Old Sun smiled wryly and said, "You don't feel bad, but I feel bad for you."

    "If you feel uncomfortable, don't listen. Wouldn't it be better to pretend to be deaf?"

    Lao Sun shook his head and said: "According to my violent temper, I will throw all these young birds into the river."

    Xu Yishan said with a smile: "Old Sun, if you dare to do this, you will be in big trouble."

    Suddenly, there was a commotion in the crowd, Xu Yishan heard the sound and looked over, it turned out that someone took boiled eggs and sold them.

    "Ten yuan each, fresh local eggs."

    The crowd gathered around, and someone shouted: "Ten yuan a piece, why don't you grab it."

    "What are you grabbing? Buy it if you want, and don't talk nonsense if you don't buy it."

    "People like you have a really dark conscience. It's hard to make money for the country."

    "Brother, don't say that. If I can sell eggs for you to eat, I already have the heart of a Bodhisattva. If you think it's too expensive, you don't have to buy it."

    The people in Hongshan Town were frightened and frightened last night, and they were already hungry.  At this moment, when encountering eggs that cost ten yuan each, I feel hungry if I don¡¯t eat them, and my heart hurts after eating them.

    Old Sun asked Xu Yishan: "Mayor Xu, may I also buy some eggs?"

    Xu Yishan shook his head and said: "No need, let the masses eat first."

    The seller of eggs is still arguing with the buyer of eggs.  Some people have paid for it.

    Xu Yishan thought for a while and said, "Old Sun, go over and coordinate, can you lower the price a bit. Ten yuan an egg is indeed a bit expensive."

    Old Sun hummed, walked over to the egg seller and said, "Brother, the price of your eggs is a bit high. Can you lower it a bit."

    The egg seller obviously knew Old Sun, so he grinned and said, "Minister Sun, it's not that I don't want to lower the price, the problem is that it's unfair for me to lower it. Since you've always asked me personally, from now on, each egg will be raised by five dollars."  One piece. Fifteen yuan each."

    Old Sun said angrily, "What do you mean?"

    The egg seller said with a smile: "Market price. Isn't it popular now? Your town government can't interfere with our business, right?"

    Old Sun was so angry that his face turned into a pig's liver, but there was nothing he could do about it.  I had no choice but to come back and say to Xu Yishan: "Mayor Xu, this kind of person has a very bad conscience, he's so shady, he's a fucking profiteer."

    Xu Yishan smiled, he could hear the egg seller's words clearly.  What people said is indeed true, the market regulation mechanism, one is willing to fight, and the other is willing to suffer.

    Having said that, he always felt that something was wrong.  Although the market regulation mechanism is a great truth, it cannot be used to make money out of ignorance.

    A basket of eggs was robbed in a blink of an eye.

    When a person is hungry, his eyes will turn as red as a mouse.  Who cares about the relationship between price and value?

    Usually, the eggs at the farmers' market in Hongshan Town cost only 50 cents each, and most of the time no one cares about them.  But today, an egg of 50 cents has become 15 yuan an egg, and the supply is in short supply, and it is hard to find an egg.

    Those who didn't get the eggs cursed and cursed, and then pointed the finger at Xu Yishan, thinking that Xu Yishan was the chief culprit, making them live a life of starvation in today's peaceful and prosperous world.

    Not long after, a few more people came to buy instant noodles.

    The bucket of instant noodles was 50 yuan, and when the price was called out, I immediately exclaimed.

    Xu Yishan felt that it was necessary to stop it, so he stepped forward, stood in front of the instant noodle stall and said to the boss: "My name is Xu Yishan, and I am the deputy mayor of Hongshan Town."

    The instant noodle stall owner smiled and said: "Oh, Mayor Xu, your name is like a thunderbolt. Aren't you the Mayor Xu who beat the gong on the street?"

    "Yes, it's me." Xu Yishan said calmly: "I heard you call just now, fifty yuan a bucket of instant noodles?"

    "That's right, you heard me right, it's only 50 yuan a barrel, and of course, you'll get free boiled water."

    "Don't you think the price is a bit outrageous?"

    "Not outrageous." The stall owner insisted.He smiled and said, "I didn't buy or sell by force."

    "But you are driving up prices."

    "I can't help it." The stall owner spread his hands and said, "I also want to sell them for five yuan a barrel, but my strength does not allow me to do so."

    Xu Yishan said: "Boss, you can increase it a bit from the original, but it can't be outrageous."

    "Am I outrageous or are you outrageous? On a good day, you spread rumors that the flood levees would collapse, scaring the whole town and fleeing overnight. Do you know how they got here this night? Let me tell you, life is better than death."

    "Mayor Xu, it's thanks to you that I sell instant noodles for 50 yuan a barrel."

    Xu Yishan knew that he couldn't tell him clearly at the moment, so he had to settle for the next best thing, and wanted to call on the masses not to buy his noodles.

    As soon as the words came out, they were beaten back, and someone scolded: "You have made us cold and scared all night, and now you want us to starve to death? Don't say fifty yuan, even five hundred yuan a barrel, I will  I want to buy it and eat it. However, the account must be settled on the head of Hongshan Town."

    Someone took the lead, followed by booing.  The scene was a mess.

    Xu Yishan stood in front of the instant noodle stand, trying to stop him, but he was pushed away and scolded: "A good dog doesn't block the way, if you don't eat it, why don't you want us to eat it?"

    Xu Yishan felt like crying. Seeing the shoppers scrambling to come over, he suddenly had a thought, did he do something wrong?

    Suddenly, a horn sounded.

    "Everyone, we are from the County Women's Federation, and we have brought you food."

    On the road leading to Hongqiao, more than a dozen trucks covered with tarpaulins appeared.

    On the roof of the lead car, a horn was calling.

    People froze for a moment, then rushed over.

    When Xu Yishan heard the word "Women's Federation", his heart was filled with warmth.

    "My wife is here." A thought popped into his mind.

    Sure enough, Chen Xiaoqi got out of the car. She looked at the swarming crowd, and shouted with a loudspeaker: "Everyone, don't crowd, and line up. I guarantee that everyone will have something to eat."

    The crowd really lined up.

    Xu Yishan looked at Chen Xiaoqi, wishing he could rush over and hug her in his arms, and kiss her hard on the cheek.

    Chen Xiaoqi saw that the line was lined up, she threw down the speaker and walked over to Xu Yishan.

    Xu Yishan went up to meet him, and shouted with a choked voice: "Wife."

    Chen Xiaoqi blushed, and said angrily: "Don't bark, there are so many people, are you not ashamed?"

    Xu Yishan poked his neck and said, "I call myself my wife, but I didn't call anyone else, why should I be ashamed?"

    Before the voice fell, the phone suddenly rang.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
