After being abandoned by the educated youth, I became rich in the 80s

"What are you talking about? Everyone, be alert and open the door."

At this time, Director Zhu of the Yu County Supply and Marketing Cooperative came out, slapped the counter, and said seriously.

"It's only a few minutes away."

"I understand, Director."

The sales clerks murmured and scattered like birds and beasts, but Director Zhu said with dissatisfaction.

"What's your attitude? You're being lazy now and not preparing your work in advance. Soon a bunch of people will rush in to buy things and I'll see you'll be in a mess."

Seeing Director Zhu talking big, one of the senior salesmen couldn't stand it and said something sarcastic.

"I'd like to keep busy, but I'm in the vegetable department, and we haven't had so many customers in a while."

This is of course a lie. The salespeople in their supply and marketing cooperative all get a fixed salary. There are many people buying things in the supply and marketing cooperative, but they don't give them more money. So the recipients wish there were fewer people so that they wouldn't have to work so hard.

Originally, the director of the supply and marketing cooperative would be angry when this was said. After all, these salesmen did not have to face direct accountability from their superiors. The director had to go to the city for meetings every day, and he would be scolded if his performance was not good.

But Director Zhu was in a particularly good mood today. He glanced at the salesperson and said cheerfully, "You won't be idle this time. Make sure you don't make any mistakes at work."

Seeing that Director Zhu looked like something happened, the other sales clerks became curious and some bold ones even asked directly.

"Why aren't you free today? Most of our supply and marketing cooperative's customers have been snatched away by that group-buying group."

When others saw that this girl was so bold and dared to say such words, they secretly felt lucky, but they didn't expect Director Zhu to say it with a smile.

"Tsk, what kind of group buying of vegetables? I think that's all they are." Director Zhu is full of ambition and looks down upon every family buying vegetables in a group. He said with a look of disdain.

"It's just vegetables from a small village, sold door to door, like a pimp, how capable can that be?"

"I got the news that the amount of vegetables that their families buy in groups is now limited. It's not like before when they could buy as much as they want. I think they have run out of ideas."

"How dare a small village compete with our supply and marketing cooperative? It's so cold that it's snowing. How many vegetables can their small village grow? Our supply and marketing cooperative cooperates with vegetable companies and can directly use large trucks to transport vegetables from warmer places to sell."

Director Zhu was exaggerating. After all, the climate in this province is similar. No matter how warm it is, not many vegetables can be grown. Moreover, there are so many supply and marketing cooperatives competing for the market.

However, no matter what, they have a vegetable company behind them that can arrange the goods. The group purchasing vegetable company based in Wei County does not have such ability.

Director Zhu said with great pride, "Listen to me, pack up. Now there are no vegetables for sale at his group purchase point. From today on, all customers you meet will come back to our supply and marketing cooperative to buy vegetables. You should all be more alert and don't let the customers go, okay?"

"understood."

Thinking of having to deal with Hu Jing's work again, the sales clerks responded weakly.

"Swish." The time has come, the doors of the supply and marketing cooperatives opened one by one, and the consignees stood behind their counters, waiting for customers to come.

But an hour passed.

Today, there were only a few customers visiting the supply and marketing cooperative, even fewer than in the past. It was not at all like the huge crowds that Director Zhu had imagined.

Even if there were customers in the supply and marketing cooperative, they would go straight to the meat stall and would not even look at the fresh green vegetables and tender bean sprouts in the cooperative.

Director Zhu was puzzled, so he grabbed a customer and started selling.

"Hey, auntie, look how green these bean sprouts are. Do you want to buy some?"

The curly-haired woman who was pulled over rolled her eyes at Director Zhu. "Bah, you are the aunt. You are a bald man and you call me aunt. I am younger than you, you know that?"

The woman spitted all over Director Zhu's face and walked away angrily, thinking that she would never come to this supply and marketing cooperative to be bullied again. She couldn't help feeling depressed. It would be so nice for every family to buy vegetables in a group, why didn't they sell meat?

Director Zhu was about to get angry after being spitted at, but the other party walked away quickly. Facing the sales clerks' faces trying to hold back their smiles, he could only hold back his anger and continued to pull a customer to ask.

This time he was alert and didn't dare to look for a woman, so he found a man to ask. Who knew that as soon as he opened his mouth, the male worker waved his hand and said.

"Don't block the way, don't block the way, I still need to go buy vegetables. If I go too far, the cheap and fresh green vegetables will be gone."

"We have all kinds of green vegetables here." Director Zhu said in confusion.

The male worker took one look at the messy pile of bean sprouts and green leafy vegetables, frowned, and asked, "How much is a pound of these green leafy vegetables?"

"It's not expensive, only 30 cents per pound..." the director said quickly, with joy of impending success in his eyes.

The male worker spat in his face and said, "You are stealing money! This dish is 3 cents a pound!"

As he was about to leave, Director Zhu held him tightly and said, "Look at the heavy snow outside. Who can grow vegetables in their fields? You think 2 cents a pound of vegetables is too expensive? It's good enough to have something to eat."

The supply and marketing cooperative has always been arrogant. Even when selling products, they always look like "I'm giving you face". The male worker waved Director Zhu's hand away with a sullen face.

"Come on, go on, go find someone else to buy it. You have to go grab the vegetables outside that are 2 cents a pound. If you're late, they will be snatched away by those women."

But he thought that there were too many people buying vegetables and he would not be able to squeeze in for a while, so he planned to cut some meat and then queue up to buy it.

"What! Where are the vegetables sold at 2 cents per pound?" The cheapest one is 2 cents, and when the weather is good, you can buy two pounds of vegetables.

The director had no reservations about dealing with male comrades. He held the male worker's arm tightly. The male worker, who was in a hurry to leave, broke away from his hand and said something casually.

"Where is that? Of course, every family buys food together."

These words were like firecrackers, which blew Director Zhu away immediately. His eyes widened and his face was confused.

That shouldn't be the case. Wouldn't the vegetables bought by the families in the group be out of stock and going cold? Where did he get the vegetables to sell?

Looking at the salesperson who was laughing secretly, Director Zhu became furious. He pointed at a salesperson and asked him to follow the worker to find out the news.

"Follow him and see which group-buying point still has vegetables for sale today."

He had to find out about the situation of this group buying point. He wanted to know where this group buying point got the fresh vegetables from to sell, which made these people look down on the products of their supply and marketing cooperative.
