Since the 1990s, the country has gradually relaxed commodity price controls and increased wages for enterprises and institutions, which has caused a significant depreciation of currency and price increases, and has also caused a strong consumption wave for citizens who have always emphasized savings.

Because money is becoming less valuable, the more you lose money you don’t spend it. It’s better to exchange some physical items to keep your value better.

but......

I have to say another one, but.

The growing consumer demand of the people and the generally backward social productivity were the biggest contradiction at that time. Simply put, the people wanted a 21-inch large color TV, but the domestic color TV production was insufficient, and the 14-inch black and white TV was over.

Who wants that shabby thing?

In the 1980s and 1990s, domestic spent a lot of foreign exchange to introduce excessive color TV production lines. As a result... Due to backward management and technology, coupled with the lack of a complete supply chain, there is no egg for just having a production line.

For example, the core component of color TVs - color imaging tubes, cannot be produced, so the country can only make a shell. It has to spend foreign exchange imported from abroad, and people have to cut fat fat one after another. But where does the country get so much foreign exchange?

Young people in the new century would not know that there was really no core technology in China back then. Color tubes could not be produced, compressors for air conditioners and refrigerators could not be produced, and almost nothing could be produced in computers. It was basically imported and assembled.

Thirty years later, there will be a "trade war", and public intellectuals such as "short, big, tight," jumping up and down, and the "pills" that all day long - the common people are not fish with only seven seconds of memory. It's so bad in the 1990s, so they'll survive it.

In the 1990s, urban families had savings, but their income was limited and their daily consumption was very saving, but they did not hesitate to take action against major issues. For example, many parents saved their lives to get married to their children.

Many employees earn only a hundred yuan, and home appliances are often thousands or tens of thousands. Everyone wants to buy them but can’t afford them, so they can only wait for the opportunity.

Now the opportunity is here.

"Harmony Supermarket", this name is actually quite strange to the common people today. But the name doesn't matter.

On the first day of opening, no one paid attention to the vegetables, fruits and melons at the door of the store, and all customers squeezed into the store to check home appliances. The store already stated that it was second-hand, but the warranty was returned for the package.

According to the new and old level, the prices of second-hand goods generally range from one third to one fifth of the original price.

"There is a 10% discount on the singles. As long as the two buy together, they will be 10% discount." There are too many people in the store, and the heads are crowded. The clerk has to stand on the counter and shout, reminding customers that there are discounts.

Now is a human society, without the Internet, telephones are not popular. The reason for "selling orders" is entirely to attract people and expand their influence.

It is cheap, discount, discount, and squeeze out all the savings of ordinary people. If it is squeezed out, you can reinvest.

The customers who just entered the store only looked at it and didn’t sell it. After all, the expenses are hundreds or thousands, and they are second-hand. They must choose one carefully and will not make a decision easily. But once they have picked the product they like, someone immediately shouted: "I want this color TV, I want it."

There was a 24-inch color TV in front of the counter, and the brand was "Changhong". No one understood that a "Changhong" was infiltrated for Mao's "imported second-hand goods", but this color TV was broadcasting news.

The flat surface is right angled, the screen is flawless, the picture is beautiful, and the sound is full. In addition to the broken shell, this color TV can be considered 90% new. Such a second-hand product costs only 2,400 yuan. It is definitely the most cost-effective one in the store.

New goods cost 6,000 to 7,000!

A middle-aged man hugged the color TV directly, shouting loudly as if he was afraid that someone would rob it. In fact, his hug further aroused the curiosity and desire to shop among the customers in the store. Many people squeezed over and wanted to see how this color TV was.

The middle-aged man became even more anxious and shouted at an acquaintance at the door: "Auntie, aunt, go and tell my wife and ask her to go to the bank to withdraw 2,400 yuan. Our family bought this color TV."

It is difficult to find large-scale shops in the city nowadays. Harmony Supermarket can only rent a store of one or two hundred square meters as a sales venue. Try to make use of the internal space, which is not like a supermarket, but rather a convenience store.

The clerk didn't expect that so many people would flock to the opening. It was useless to shout hoarsely. The store was too noisy. Moreover, the crowd gathered in a place, and the people who were joining in the fun rushed in. The howling ghosts were sobbing that the store was about to burst into pieces.

Yulan opened a car to inspect the newly opened stores in the city. She completely wanted to build a small supermarket model according to Zhou Qingfeng's requirements, but she did not expect that when ordinary people enter the store, they are eyeing the much discounted second-hand appliances.

There are too many people.

Too many to scare individuals.

If this continues, something must happen. Yulan did not encounter such a situation. She quickly called Zhou Qingfeng for help. Zhou Qingfeng did not say a word and asked Lin Wan to contact the Municipal Public Security Bureau and ask the street police station to provide someone to help maintain order.

"Sheng Light Machinery" donated ten "Chang'an Stars" to the municipal bureau at once - it is necessary to establish a good relationship with the police uncle. "Van" is probably not loved by the leaders, but the grassroots police stations are definitely happy.

If you want to solve the problem, it is common to not find the temple gate with a pig's head, so it is important to find the key person.

Ten "Chang'an Stars" have been donated in large quantities.

The Municipal Bureau was very happy to help this. With just one phone call, police officers came to the door of seven or eight companies in the city who opened the "Harmony Supermarket". With a thunderous shout, the people were all shocked and the panicked people fled directly.

The order at the entrance of the store was quickly restored, and the sweaty clerks breathed a sigh of relief. When it was still cold in early spring, they were all sweating.

When they learned that the police were just here to maintain order, not to seal the store, the people around them breathed a sigh of relief. The fanatical curiosity and purchasing enthusiasm cooled down, and everyone began to buy in an orderly manner.

In the "CCB Store" of the trading company, the middle-aged man holding a big color TV was not let go, and the police were not afraid of him when they came. His wife rushed over in a panic, thinking that something big happened to his man.

"The 24-inch large color TV only costs 2,400 yuan. Look at this style and the picture quality. I have been looking at it for almost an hour. It has no other problems except for the shell being a little broken."

The middle-aged man kept urging his wife to withdraw money as soon as possible. Although it was second-hand, the quality and price were really nothing to say. Even the police present were very moved. The man's wife was also very happy and turned around and wanted to go to the bank.

The clerk behind the counter quickly reminded: "You can get a 10% discount on orders. If you want to buy someone, you can get another 240 yuan cheaper."

Can it be cheaper?

Two hundred and forty dollars is a lot.

The man's wife made a quick decision and said to her husband, "You keep guarding me, I'll go find someone right away."

No need to look for it, someone in the store shouted, "I want this big double-door refrigerator. I will buy a order with this brother, and I will also get a 10% discount."

So the two families who didn't know quickly gathered together to make orders, but the latter family was anxious but couldn't take out the money immediately. So they took a fancy to the customer of the same refrigerator and jumped out and shouted, "He can't pay, I've got the money. Let me take this order."
