Wenzhou is a water city with Oujiang River and seaside. Even in the mountains, the water system is developed, which made Yongjia magistrate Xie Lingyun and opened China's landscape poems. Wenzhou is also a paradise for ducks.
There are ducks in Shuicheng. After raising ducks on a large scale, Wenzhou's non-staple food processing industry rose, with a famous brand "Xianbali", and rotten ducks and duck tongues became famous dishes. I ate duck tongue several times in Wenzhou. This is a cold dish. Duck tongue is bittern, half-dry, chewed in the mouth, full of toughness and quite chewy. However, I met Wenzhou native Nan on the Internet. He told me that Wenzhou people call it "duck earning", not duck tongue. This situation is very serious. I didn't expect to make such a big mistake, because I pretended to know Wenzhou well, so I broke through.
What is said is that in Wenzhou dialect, the tongue sound is actually the same loss. Therefore, eating duck's tongue is eating duck's loss. Wenzhou people, whose sweat holes are full of commercial cells, don't want to "eat ducks and lose money", so they simply change it and call it "duck earning", and treat them as "eating ducks and earning money". As for the pig tongue, as usual, it is called "mouth earning", and only the name of the human tongue remains unchanged. "Duck earning" and "mouth earning" can really reflect the character of Wenzhou people, which is not pleasant to hear, unpleasant to hear, and most importantly, unlucky. So why not change it to "earn"?
Wenzhou people are at the forefront of industry and trade, and their grasp of details has reached its peak. In addition to changing the duck tongue to "duck earning", Wenzhou people are also amazing in other aspects. For example, if Wenzhou people want government officials, they will say bluntly: take people's money and solve problems. It means that your government has collected our taxes, so you have to solve our problems. In recent years, Wenzhou has fallen behind Ningbo in the economic ranking of Zhejiang Province, which is related to the fact that many Wenzhou businessmen are dissatisfied with Wenzhou's investment environment and moved to Shanghai. Wenzhou businessmen think that investment in Shanghai can be stamped at one time, but it is still troublesome in Wenzhou, so they have moved to Shanghai one after another, which also forces the Wenzhou government to have an "efficiency revolution", that is, to improve service efficiency.
Looking at "duck earning" from a dish of duck tongue may reveal the thinking of Wenzhou people. Is there any loss in the original homonym? Let's change it to "earn" and enjoy it. In recent years, a cold dish-duck tongue has been added to the public table. This dish is purple in color, mellow in fragrance, sweet and delicious, and it is really the best accompaniment to wine.
The duckling's tongue is no more than an inch long or two inches long. Who will pay attention to its economic value? Some people are too dirty and troublesome to throw away. But now it's incredibly expensive just to select and process. The market price of 1 kg ranges from 160 yuan to 200 yuan, and the price is higher at banquet tables. A dozen tongues, less than 50 grams, more than 20 yuan, that is, two yuan a piece. When asked about the origin of this dish, it comes from Wenzhou, the originator of market economy, and I can't help feeling that maybe only a place like Wenzhou, China, which focuses on business, will consider making big money by "abandoning duck tongue".
Wenzhou duck tongue shows that demand can be created and value can be created. Before this dish appeared, many people were dismissive. It's just that the savvy Wenzhou people made it alone, and after careful marinating, it was made into delicious food.
It can be seen from Wenzhou duck tongue that the finer and more specialized the division of labor, the greater the value created. Let's go to the market. Even the head and tongue, hair and skin, 1 ducks are sold around 20 yuan. Compared with duck tongue, the gap is really different. It can be said that the duckling's tongue creates more added value than the whole duck.
In fact, in the past, many of our enterprises, especially state-owned enterprises, were defeated by many "small but refined" private enterprises because of their pursuit of "big and complete", similar to Wenzhou duck tongue.
Zhejiang's economy is famous for its massive economy, with "one county, one product", "one town, one product" and even "one village, one product", which has supported big industries with professional cooperation. Industrial clusters with clear division of labor have promoted the rapid development of Zhejiang's industrial economy. Some economists call it "puppy economy". Puppies have a clear division of labor, cooperate collectively, and finally defeat the beast. According to investigation and statistics, the scale of industrial output value of "block economy" in Zhejiang Province has now exceeded 654.38+0.8 trillion yuan, accounting for nearly 665.438+0% of Zhejiang's total industrial output value.
In Zhejiang, a large number of enterprises make big money by making screws and selling buttons. For example, Supor (23.9 1, 0.0 1, 0.04%), the largest cooker manufacturer in China, started from making pressure cooker accessories for others. Even the bamboo sticks used in Xinjiang mutton skewers are wholesale from Yiwu small commodity market. A vendor told reporters that such bamboo sticks could be sold for 1 cent at first, and now 10 can be bought for 1 cent. Even so, the wholesale volume is large, and there is still money to be made.
"Don't do it just because it's delicious." Wenzhou duck tongue just illustrates this truth, and savvy Wenzhou people have taught us another lesson.
