In Changsha, Hunan, when a man was traveling, he happily bought 8 fried skewers in the food city, ready to try them, but he was completely dumbfounded when he checked out, because 8 skewers cost 115 yuan. The man felt that this was simply a sky-high price, so he asked the clerk to theorize, but unexpectedly, he was angrily scolded by the clerk: Poor, I can't afford to eat don't order!

Case**: Drawer**).

It is said that Changsha is a city full of romance and food, and many tourists come here. Mr. Li is a veteran foodie, and he took advantage of the vacation to come to the long-awaited Changsha.

Before leaving, Mr. Li did a lot of strategies, what flight to take, how many subways to take, and take a taxi to **, and he planned in detail.

So as soon as he got off the plane, although it was already night, he still went straight to the goal and rushed to a more famous local food city without stopping.

The food city really lives up to its name, with bright lights, crowds of people, full of atmosphere, and the fragrance of various gourmet snacks makes him salivate.

Suddenly, he was greeted by a fried skewer stall with a wide variety of varieties and novel ingredients such as insects and cicada pupae that he had never eaten before.

He had never been exposed to these things before, and was even a little resistant. But thinking that since I had come all this far, I must taste something fresh, so I stopped and prepared to taste it.

Mr. Li carefully selected 8 fried skewers, including cicada chrysalis, seahorses and some unknown insects, and then sat down with joy and waited to eat.

But when the fried skewers were served, he was not interested, because the clerk told him that the 8 fried skewers cost a total of 115 yuan!

Mr. Li felt that the price was really outrageous, it was simply a "fried string assassin", and he didn't want to be wronged, so he didn't pay the bill, but theorized with the clerk.

The clerk said that the local price is this standard, their things are clearly marked, there is no fraud, and the strings have been fried, and the refund cannot be refunded, and Mr. Li must settle the bill.

The dispute between the two sides became more and more intense, and the clerk even made insulting remarks, sarcastically saying that Mr. Li was a "poor man" and said that he should not eat if he could not afford to eat, which made Mr. Li feel very angry.

Mr. Li instantly felt that he was not only treated as a wronged leader, not to mention being deceived by the "bombing assassin", but spending money to enjoy it but causing a scolding, and his personal dignity was insulted.

The quarrel between the two attracted a lot of tourists to watch, and some people stood up to persuade Mr. Li, saying that he came out to play just to have fun, and just spend money to buy novelty, don't take it seriously.

But Mr. Li couldn't swallow this breath, he felt that the eyes of the masses were bright, so he posted his unpleasant experience on the Internet, commented on him, and also avoided a thunderbolt for everyone by the way.

The incident quickly attracted the attention of the relevant departments, and the relevant departments immediately investigated, and the owner of the fried skewer shop said that the employee involved was a newcomer who had only been here for a few days, and after the incident, he had been dismissed.

But for **, they are indeed clearly marked with a price.

From a legal point of view, first of all, the first law clearly stipulates that merchants must clearly mark the price of food sold, which is not only a legal requirement, but also to avoid misunderstandings, so that sellers and consumers can trade in a civilized manner.

The "Law" stipulates that in the process of selling and purchasing goods and providing services, business operators shall publicly display information such as ** in accordance with the law. Business operators must not use false or misleading means to induce consumers or other business operators to conduct transactions with them.

Secondly, although it is said that in the market economy, for commodities without the best guide price, merchants can set prices independently, but the pricing of commodities should also conform to the laws of the market and the principle of fairness and integrity, rather than asking for sky-high prices.

Article 6 of the Law stipulates that, in addition to the guiding price or pricing applicable in accordance with this Law, the market regulation price shall be set by the operator in accordance with this Law.

It is understandable that the food in the scenic area is slightly more expensive, but it is illegal to be outrageously expensive.

Finally, whether it is a seller or a consumer, once a dispute arises, you can't speak out and insult at will.

The Public Security Administration Punishment Law has clear penalties for public insults, ranging from warnings to detention and fines.

There are many ways to solve the problem, and the premise must be to legally defend one's own rights and interests, rather than verbal abuse. In this case, you will only bring endless trouble to yourself.

After investigation, the food city where the store is located said that they will impose a penalty of 5,000 to 50,000 yuan on the fried skewer restaurant, and strengthen the training and supervision of all employees.

This incident also reminds everyone that we should pay more attention when shopping, pay attention to whether it is reasonable, and do not make blind choices.

At the same time, it is a wake-up call to all businesses and reminds them to operate with integrity, only in this way can business last.
