During the epidemic in Shanghai supermarkets, a Chinese cabbage sold in 80 yuan was fined 50,000 yuan. In Changning, Shanghai, a man came to a department store to buy. When he went to the vegetable area, he found that celery actually costs 78 yuan/kg and cabbage 32 yuan/kg, which translates into a handful of celery and a cabbage of 77.9 yuan. This price discourages people who come to purchase. This person thinks that the price of this vegetable is a bit outrageous. It was not so expensive when I bought it before. So the man photographed the price of vegetables and put it online. As a result, netizens vomited, "Isn't this robbing money?" "This salary can't even afford cabbage."

After seeing the price of vegetables sent by men, the local State Administration of Market Supervision immediately launched an investigation into the department store. After investigation, the supermarket not only maliciously raised the price of vegetables, but also colluded with suppliers to pass ordinary vegetables off as high-end organic vegetables and then sell them at high prices. Not only that, the supermarket also publicizes eight kinds of products being sold, and the so-called "original price" marked on the spot is fictitious.

Netizen: Good punishment! Bian Xiao believes that the epidemic situation in Shanghai has begun to rebound, and the number of confirmed cases and asymptomatic infected people has increased, so the epidemic control has become more and more strict. This also means that the control of material supply is also strengthening and the circulation is slowing down. At this point, some businesses began to think. I can only say that the behavior of these businesses is shameless. They are not only shameless, but also illegal.

At present, vegetable prices still follow market pricing. In other words, the price of vegetables is determined according to the purchase price and transportation situation of vegetables. However, it is worth noting that this price is not set at will, and it should also be in line with the actual situation. Malicious bid-up of vegetable prices is an unfair business practice. In addition, supermarkets collude with suppliers to pass ordinary vegetables off as high-end organic vegetables and sell them at high prices, which is a consumer fraud.

Some people may think that vegetables belong to food and should be compensated 10 times according to the Food Safety Law. Actually, it is not. If you want to get compensation of 10 times, you have to meet certain conditions. For example: selling expired food, three no food (no manufacturer, no shelf life, no production date), smuggling imported food, etc. In this incident, supermarkets only sold ordinary vegetables as high-end organic vegetables at high prices. There is no problem with the quality of ordinary vegetables and they can be eaten. So 10 times compensation cannot be applied here.

In the end, the supermarket was severely punished by the State Administration of Market Supervision and fined 500,000 yuan. At the same time, this move is also an example. We hope that business will still be based on honesty. Without honesty, business can't be done. At the same time, it is necessary to remind merchants that consumers' awareness of rights protection will become stronger and stronger.
