After the epidemic is relaxed, lemons sell for 10 yuan each. With a monthly salary of 3,000, I really don’t know what I can buy every day?
I wonder if you have noticed that prices have risen a lot recently? I have discovered that since the epidemic was opened a while ago, medicines are not only expensive, but also difficult to buy even if you have money. Even the most common antipyretics, cold medicines, and cough medicines have been sold out. I have never been in the habit of stocking up on medicines, and I never thought that there would be "no medicine" available in the 10 or so pharmacies on the street overnight.
When I heard that everyone was stocking up on medicines, I was always calm at first, but seeing more and more “little foreigners” around me, I finally asked an acquaintance to buy a few boxes of antipyretics at 48 yuan a box. I don’t know if they are expensive? I don’t know how many boxes I usually buy. Watching your neighbors and colleagues getting positive symptoms one after another, even if you can’t buy cold medicine or cough medicine, prepare some antipyretic medicine just in case something unexpected happens.
Most of the country's more than one billion people have been infected one after another. Then people on the Internet shared the knowledge that various fruits can relieve the disease, saying that rock sugar and snow pears can relieve sore throats, citrus tea can relieve coughs, lemons can relieve sore throats and replenish electrolyte water, etc. As soon as this news came out, the price of fruits began to soar overnight. Lemons actually sold for 10 yuan each. It was really a "sky-high price for lemons".
is responsible for buying vegetables and cooking every day. I found that the prices of vegetables are also ridiculously expensive. Many vegetables have been sold for more than 10 yuan per catty. Even the most common white radish, which usually sells for a few cents, now costs 3-4 yuan per catty. I saw the Shakya in the supermarket for 31.9 yuan each. This may be imported fruit, so it is expensive, which is understandable. This kind of fruit is not affordable for ordinary people like us, so we should not buy it if we can.
I won’t talk much about imported fruits, but fruits that are usually very cheap have also increased several times. Many people say that steaming oranges with salt is effective, so oranges that usually sell for 3-4 yuan per catty also sell for 11-12 yuan per catty.
The price of pears is even more ridiculous. Have you ever seen pears selling for more than 10 yuan per pound? Usually it’s only 3-5 yuan per pound at most.
I walked around the supermarket and found that most of the fruits started with 10. Citrus fruits that usually cost 3-4 yuan per pound now cost 11.8 yuan per pound. Fruit farmers are going to make a lot of money this year. No, to be precise, it is the middlemen who are making a lot of money.
Experts say that when you are sick, you should eat more fruits to supplement vitamin C, so that you can get better quickly. Since my husband became masculine, he also asked me to follow the diet recommended online and cook some fruit water for him to drink, so I bought a few pears, 5 for 28.06 yuan, almost 6 yuan for a pear, which is ridiculously expensive.
In addition to pears, one day when I was shopping for vegetables, I went to the fruit store and bought 2 apples and 2 bunches of grapes . After the boss weighed them, I heard the price: "A total of 33 yuan!" Such a small thing cost 33 yuan, so I asked how much each pound of apples and grapes cost? The boss replied: "Apples are 9 yuan per catty, and grapes are 20 yuan per catty." In fact, I really wanted to throw them down and leave. I don't want to buy such an expensive "fruit at a sky-high price". Can I "fly to the sky" after eating it? But I felt embarrassed inside, so I had to pay obediently.
My monthly salary is about 3,000 yuan. I go to the vegetable market every day and buy some meat and vegetables for less than 100 yuan. I can eat fruit or not. Just 2 apples and 2 small bunches of grapes cost 33 yuan. If I were not sick, who would buy such expensive fruit?
A while ago, pork was still selling for 17-18 yuan per catty. Today, when I went to the vegetable market to buy vegetables, pork was sold for 25 yuan per catty. I think prices are rising not just in my city, right? Have you ever felt that things have become more expensive recently? Many people's monthly salary is only 3,000 to 6,000, and suddenly things are so ridiculously expensive. I really don't know what I can buy with such a small monthly salary every day. It feels like life is getting harder and harder. Do you feel this way? Comments welcome!
