Due to the impact of the epidemic in recent years, the economic income of workers in various industries has generally declined. However, during the epidemic period, there were still a few provinces and cities where although wages were declining, living standards did not decline at all. . It is understood that in Xining City, Qinghai Province, there were three positive cases of COVID-19 infection in the nucleic acid testing of key populations on October 20. As of October 26, Xining City, Qinghai Province had 5 new confirmed cases and 70 asymptomatic cases. In total, there are now more than 160 positive cases in Xining.

Since the starting point of this round of epidemic is the agricultural and sideline products distribution center of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, because the agricultural and sideline products distribution center has a large number of people and the movement of vehicles is very frequent, most of the agricultural and sideline products in Sydney and even the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau exist. There is a supply of fresh vegetables, but since we are currently in the epidemic prevention and control stage, people are facing the problem of difficulty and high price in buying vegetables. During the epidemic, any business should work with the city to overcome difficulties, rather than taking this opportunity to drive up prices. On the 26th, three vegetable sales operators in Xining were investigated for suspected price gouging. It is understood that the price of a cabbage is It reached 49.31 yuan. In addition, there were many other prices that violated regulations. What this merchant did is definitely inappropriate, and the current investigation and punishment by the Market Supervision Bureau is the punishment he should receive. During the epidemic, we should fight against hardships and not make the country rich. How long can we be rich by making unscrupulous money?

However, according to an investigation by the Market Supervision and Administration Bureau, these three stores made the price of cabbage so expensive because of incorrect price tags. The merchants said that the staff made a mistake while busy and printed the barcode of lotus root on the cabbage. , resulting in the weighing and charging of lotus roots and cabbage at the price of lotus roots. Although after these things happened, the supermarket also apologized to consumers and refunded the overcharge of 40.7 yuan. Consumers also forgave the employee's behavior. .

However, the Market Supervision and Administration Bureau still ordered rectification of the problem of irregular prices in supermarkets. Regardless of the reason, if you refuse to drive up prices during the epidemic, or disrupt the market price order, manipulate market prices, and harm the legitimate rights and interests of consumers, you will inevitably be punished.
