A city in Guangdong Province.

It's warm in the south in the middle of March. Although it's evening, it's a good time for people living here to go out. The temperature is suitable, so it's very suitable for shopping, eating, walking and chatting.

However, in recent days, the street has gradually become cold. Today, it is an extreme. There are seven shops in the street that are not open.

It's not only that most shops are not open, but also that there are fewer pedestrians walking on the street. The passers-by who occasionally walk is also very fast, and people seem to keep a little distance deliberately.

Many people wear masks, but most of them are cheap disposable masks and the cotton medical masks popular in the last century. People hope that this kind of masks can help them to resist the spreading infectious virus outside, but they don't know that this kind of masks is actually of no use to the virus.

However, even such masks are sold out.

On the cold street, only one drugstore has a very good business. There is a long line at the door. However, although the long line is not very dense, everyone keeps a certain distance from the front and back line automatically. There is a huge red poster at the door, which says: the latest arrival of Banlangen, only 120 yuan / bag, limited quantity, welcome to rush to buy!

All the people in the line are running to Banlangen.

At first, we wanted to rush in and rush to buy, but the two salesmen wearing masks kept blocking and demanding, which made them line up.

Similar situations are common in Guangdong Province, neighboring provinces and even all over the country. People are worried about the virus. Now the only thing that can bring them a sense of security is those things that are said to be able to resist the virus. If they get it, they will feel more relaxed. If they can't get it, their hearts will always hang.

A middle-aged woman came out of the drugstore, holding a bag of Banlangen in her hand, both happy and distressed.

Happy because this kind of powder is said to be able to prevent that kind of infectious disease, but what's distressing is that the price of this stuff is more than 20 times higher than usual. In the past, such a big bag would cost five yuan to the sky. Now it's about 120 yuan. If you don't make a counter-offer, you won't buy many. Each person is only allowed to buy one box.

She was lucky enough to be the first one. Anyway, she had already bought a box. She felt relieved. There were 25 small bags in a big bag of blueroots. She calculated that she and her husband and children could buy one bag every day for only eight days. She still had to find a way to buy more.

At this time, the people in the queue outside saw her come out with Banlangen and asked her: "excuse me, is there a lot of inventory in this store?"

The middle-aged woman shook her head and said, "I'm not sure, but I don't think it's much to hear from them, so everyone is only allowed to buy one bag, and they need to see their ID cards."

"What? Do you want to see your ID card? " The woman who asked her was in a hurry. Many other people in the line were also stamping their feet: "what can I do without ID card?"

"Don't worry," explained the middle-aged woman hurriedly, "just leave an ID card number without an ID card. They need to register."

Others were relieved at last. If it wasn't for the ban Langen store, who would risk queuing in the street? If they couldn't buy it, they would be crying.

The whole Guangdong Province has long been in such a panic.

Before today, there have been various rumors of SARS in Guangdong Province. After numerous conversions and reprocessing, all kinds of rumors have been spread a little weird, which has always been frightening. Today, things seem to have risen to a new level, because YY released a big news today, which makes you really realize that the epidemic is coming, and Even the who has issued a global warning. This is the World Health Organization. Chinese people always have an inexplicable sense of authority over organizations that lead the world.

Therefore, today, the wave of Guangdong Province's rush to buy related materials is more fierce, and the prices of stores are also rising inhumanely. Originally, Banlangen could still be bought, today it's one hundred and two.

There was a middle-aged man in the team who said, "one hundred and two is good. He lives in the next district a few kilometers away. The drugstore downstairs of his house sold for one hundred and five and was robbed completely. He couldn't help but ride a motorcycle here to try his luck. He didn't expect there were goods here, and the price of one hundred and two was fair.".

Yes.

When others heard this, they were relieved. A bowl of rice was not worth 35 cents, but when they were starving to death, they didn't feel hurt when they ate it. This is the rule of commodity. Everyone doesn't lack it. You can't buy a dime or a ton. When everyone lacks it, you still have to wait in line to deliver the money.

After the first middle-aged woman came out, two more people came out with a large bag of Banlangen. The people in line asked the same question again and got the same answer.

The middle-aged man who came over by motorcycle sighed: "Oh, this shop has a conscience. It's much better than those drugstores in our district. The drugstore over there is eager to sell out and close the door. So some people ask for more than ten or twenty packages at a time. They can't sell them right, but others can't buy them! My wife is. She heard that there was a drugstore and Banlangen. She went to the queue early in the morning. After waiting for more than an hour, she was almost there. As a result, a guy wrapped up the remaining 30 or so packages at one go! She didn't even buy a small bag at the end of the day. She's really pissed off! "When he said that, people around him nodded.

An old man sighed: "these days, there are too many profiteers and too few businessmen with moral integrity. At this time, it is really rare for them to sell in limited quantity and buy one bag per person. Moreover, the price of their home is cheap. They only sell 120, which is really conscience."

"Ah!" A woman sighed: "now the price of everything goes up. Masks usually can't wait for a dime. Now they are sold for more than one yuan and two yuan. The 84 disinfectant is even more deadly. It's out of stock. I wanted to buy 84 to disinfect my family, but I couldn't buy it anywhere. At last, I can only buy two bottles of white vinegar. That's expensive! Two bottles of white vinegar cost me one hundred and one! "

"Don't mention white vinegar, our family is also, boiling white vinegar in a kettle, the smell of vinegar in a room! It smells like vomiting! "

One aunt hurriedly said, "Oh, sister, you don't understand. White vinegar kills germs by the smell of vinegar. If you breathe more water vapor boiled by white vinegar, germs in your body will be killed!"

"So divine?" Some people are obviously skeptical, saying: "if 84 can be sterilized, I'm sure that it's 800 serious disinfectants, but this white vinegar It's food seasoning! If it can kill bacteria, why not soy sauce? "

"You don't understand!" The aunt said seriously: "my downstairs two people are doctors, they said, what is the component of acetic acid in vinegar, it is really fungicidal, you eat fried rice noodles outside, some exquisite shopkeepers put chopsticks in vinegar to soak and sterilize, but now vinegar is too expensive, it is estimated that no one has done so."

"Oh..." Some doubters nodded and said, "it seems that there is such a thing. I will remember when you say that."

Just then, there was a roar in the shop: "I lost my mother Lei. I want to buy more if I have money. Why don't you sell it? I lost it!"

The saleswoman tried her best to explain something, but the voice was too low to hear clearly outside.

Clang!

When something in the drugstore was broken, the roar of the store came out again: "isn't it money? I have money. I will give you more money? How many Banlangen do you have here? I'll buy one hundred and fifty-one bags! "

As soon as the words came out, it exploded outside.

"Hey, what's the point of having money?" roared the grumpy man? Everyone is waiting in line. Why do you buy all of them? Besides, it's immoral for people like you to bid up prices! "

At this time, a middle-aged man with a face full of flesh came out of the drugstore. He turned out a pile of 100 yuan cash from his leather bag under his armpit and said, "is it illegal to buy things? I have money, can you control it? I don't steal, rob, cheat or cheat. Why do you yell at me when I buy things with cash? Say I bid up the price? Please don't be so opinionated. I'm here to make it all inclusive and to raise a chicken feather! Let's get rid of it. I want all the Banlangen here today. "

After that, the middle-aged man turned around and clapped a stack of banknotes on the cash register and shouted, "this is 20000 yuan. How many stocks do you have in your store? Take them all out to me. If the money is not enough, I'll call someone to send them to me now. My family is very prosperous and has many relatives. I'll buy them back for tea!"

"You..."

"Here..."

It wasn't just the clamour outside that froze, even the cashier girl.

Although this guy is arrogant, he is not wrong. He has money and he is willing to pay a high price. Who can stop him? When the police arrived, he was still reasonable. Besides, most of the people in the line were women, only a few men. The man who yelled at him didn't dare to quarrel with him. If he started, he would not get any advantage. Besides, the man looked like a local tyrant, and the common people were afraid that he couldn't make it.

Therefore, everyone's hope can only be placed on the salesperson.

They hope that the salesmen can keep their store's moral integrity. They have agreed to limit one package for one person, that is, limit one package for one person, that is, 120, 120.

However, at this time, the salesperson was also a little silly. She said yes: "elder brother, I have to ask our boss..."

The man with a fierce face nodded at once, tapping his fingers on the table and saying, "please hurry up, I'm in a hurry."

At this time, a few women outside suddenly became nervous and hurriedly said, "little girl, is it too much for you to raise the price temporarily?"

The girl said apologetically, "I'm sorry, you see, we don't want to raise the price temporarily, but this guest wants to increase the price to buy..."

"That's not good either!" The woman did not like it and said, "what do you do with us who have been waiting in line for half a day?"

The girl said politely, "after all, we are in business. We want to make more money by taking such a big risk and opening our business. Please be considerate."

It's reasonable and reasonable. This kind of polite refusal makes other people feel as if they are punching cotton. It's more depressing than hitting iron
