reporter Li Fang
to the aquatic market to buy crabs, not to return home to scale, the rope weight accounted for nearly half of Hankou readers "calm" yesterday.
"wind calm" introduced yesterday, in the early morning of September 11th, she and her husband went to a large aquatic product market in Hankou to buy crabs, priced at 30 yuan / Jin, no counter-offer. She thought that as long as it was not short, it would be expensive, so she picked 3 red string bound sea crab, weighed 3 Jin 2 two, and paid 96 yuan. When he came home, he untied the rope and found that the rope was thick and wet. Once again, he weighed half a kilogram of a rope. (see photo), the 3 one was half a kilogram. In this way, she spent 45 yuan on the crab price, bought the 3 ropes, and was very annoyed.
it is understood that almost all the sea crabs in the aquatic market are tied with ropes, and the boss refuses to weigh with the rope. The reason is that when they wholesale back, they are tied with a rope. There are also shopkeepers called, sea crab size is larger, entering the transport and wholesale links, must be tied with a rope, otherwise easy to hurt people, and crabs fight each other, if not bundled the current will be shorter. In addition, the coarse string of bundled crab is very absorbent. Only in this way can the crab survive without water.
to this, the City Association believes that the merchant should mark the price clearly, first to explain to the customer, how much the price is to sell together with the rope, and how much the price is without the rope, to avoid disputes and disputes.
