BXBX NOVEL Chapter 473 part1
"When you register here, you need to write down your residence address, how many people are there in your house, and how many meters are there in your house. We can’t find out how many meters you bought during the price increase, we can only count how many meters you have left in your house. After we verify it, we will compensate you according to the highest price difference."
Although the grain merchants records their daily sales volume, they didn’t record how much each person bought. Lin Chujiu could not verify them one by one, she could only count the grain left in each household. As for the loss of these days?
"Didn’t you have any food left in your family? We will count the remaining food with you."
"You’re right. If there were people, who still have much food left, they might take advantage of this. But we don’t have other ways to verify it. We can only give more."
"Not Fair? We have tried to be as fair as possible. Please forgive us for not being fair."
"Who ate a big loss? You? Did you buy all your rice at the highest price? If not, don’t shout. We will compensate people according to the highest price difference. We will not take advantage of people. This is just a matter who has more or less."
The people who came to register were very happy at first, but they felt wrong after the excitement. This compensation method was not fair at all. People who bought a lot of rice early on, definitely bought it at a much cheaper price, so what loses did they suffer?
As a result, some people cried in front of Housekeeper and others. When Housekeeper Cao and others, heard the people yelling that they had eaten a big loss and that those people who bought rice early on or stock rice early will take advantage of this, they couldn’t help but sneer.
Before coming out, their wangfei told them that the people who bought the grain would definitely say that it was unfair. They will think that they lose more money than other families. They didn’t believe it. Now it seems... ...
They were ignorant.
These people can foresee that others will take advantage of this, but they didn’t think that they, themselves were taking advantage of it. How shameless.
*Bang, Bang* When Houskeeper Cao saw the scene getting more and more chaotic. He took out an improvised loudspeaker, stood on the high platform, and shouted: "If you think this is unfair, then come over here and register. I will let people check... ... and find out how many meters you have bought each day for 7 days, and then compensate you according to the price difference every day. Is that fair enough?"
This was indeed the fairest method. Because they will know who exactly lose a lot more money. Meaning, the standard set by Lin Chujiu was actually very lax. No matter when you buy grains or save it, all the people will be compensated according to the difference of the highest price. People who bought more grains might take advantage of it, but not all people are greedy... ...
Hearing Housekeeper Cao’s words, all the people were dumbfounded. Several people who had already walked towards Housekeeper Cao quietly retreated.
If Housekeeper Cao does just as what he said, won’t they lose money?
No, it’s not a loss, it’s just that, they can’t take advantage of it.
This was good enough. It’s not good to lose more money.
"No, no, it’s fair, it’s fair, we’re wrong, we’re wrong." The people who were causing trouble earlier dare not speak another word. They stepped back and line up honestly.
"How pathetic and hateful." Housekeeper Cao put down the loudspeaker and shook his head.
