Re: vegetable "water injection" into the hidden rules of 46 pounds of spinach, 13 catties are ice water.
in January 2010, in a bag of spinach bought back from the wholesale market 80 yuan, Mr. Zheng pulled out 10 bottles of ice water. Weighing, the whole bag of vegetables weighed 46 Jin, of which there were 13 Jin of ice water. That is to say, wholesalers claim 1.7 yuan / jin of spinach, the real price is 2.42 yuan / Jin. Many vendors said that Wholesale vegetables from other provinces would allow wholesalers to give a net price of vegetables. "One kilogram of spinach in Xinmi is seven yuan, which is too cheap, and the wholesale price is now two yuan a kilogram. They use low prices to attract small traders wholesale, and actually earn ice water money. Residents complain that the price of vegetables is high and the ice water is estimated to have many reasons. "In order to reduce losses, vendors must raise the price of vegetables and pass the losses on to consumers," he said.
