Recently, when purchasing daily necessitiesDiscover several interesting things in a row: The price of steamed buns and flower rolls at the entrance of the community for 1 yuan has not changed, but the size is obviously much smaller;3.A bag of corn nest head of 3 yuan has become an activity price of 468 a bag. Then I thought about it again, it looks like a restaurant pork dish, back to the pot meat, salt-fried meat and the like, after the price of pork ** rose before, now the price of pork has dropped, and it seems that the dishes ** have not dropped. I can't help but feel the feeling of 'no treacherous business' in my heart!

Inexplicably, I still think about it until I get home".No treachery, no business"This word, I always feel a little something. Then I looked it up on the Internet, and it dawned on me (from the encyclopedia):

In ancient times, when the rice merchants did business, in addition to filling the bucket, they also had to scoop some more to make the rice in the bucket sharp. It has become a custom, that is, whenever you do business, you always give a little more to your customers. This is a kind of business gimmick of old-fashioned businessmen, and this handful of "additions" is very useful to customers, so there is a saying that "no sharp business". However, over time, the meaning of the word gradually changed and gradually evolved into "no treacherous businessman", and the meaning also changed drastically: you cannot be a merchant unless you are treacherous.

It can be seen that in the early days, this word was not a derogatory term, but described a phenomenon that still exists in the current market: giving profits and adding heads. Through a variety of compliant and legal means, to attract customers and promote the sales of goods. For example, when a product was first launched, in order to attract customers to sell, it was promoted in the "additive" way of buying n and getting 1 free, and it returned to normal in the later stageAnother example is the sharp price reduction of unsalable products that often appear in supermarkets or the way of buying n and giving n free**, which is the method of "making profits" and "adding heads" to ensure income.

This kind of non-business-free and "sharp" behavior is actually a clever practice of taking advantage of the public's "greed for small and cheap" hearts, and achieving a win-win situation for both supply and demand. Such businessmen believe that only by providing better products and services can they win the trust of customers and long-term cooperation.

On the other hand, the behavior of the steamed buns for 1 yuan suddenly became smaller, as well as the phenomenon that the propaganda occasionally seen in the market is completely inconsistent with the reality, which belongs to the typical derogatory term "no treacherous business". And this kind of businessman often does not work for long, and the breakfast shop at the door uses this way to reduce the price of competition, but it is a typical example of being eliminated. Although these real 'profiteers' have gained benefits for a short time, they will eventually be able to escape the fate of legal sanctions and market elimination.

Therefore, the phrase "no traitor, no business" is not an accurate description. We should treat the group of businessmen with hospitality, and we cannot deny the whole group because of individual bad behaviors. At the same time, we should also improve our consumption awareness, learn to identify the integrity of merchants, and protect our own rights and interests.
