Chapter 179 Road Market
After washing up, Wu Fei went out to walk downstairs for a while, and did not go upstairs to have breakfast until Kang Liu called.
After breakfast, it was only 8 o'clock. Wu Fei drove to the bus station, and the bus that departed from the village had not arrived yet.
After talking to the agent yesterday, Wu Fei called his father and asked his father to ask the bus driver to bring his household registration book to the bus to help him bring him this morning.
The driver is an old acquaintance and has been driving this bus for many years. Sometimes the villagers have to bring some things, but if there is nothing to do when they come up, they usually ask the driver to help bring them. Small things are usually given to half a person's fare, while big things are given to one person's fare. It is equivalent to half a part-time courier in the village.
Wu Fei waited at the station for about half an hour before the bus arrived. It was almost 50 kilometers from the village to the county town, and Wu Fei usually only drove for an hour.
However, people often get on and off the bus on the road, and it usually takes about an hour and a half to get to the county town.
If you encounter a market place on the road, sometimes it may take an hour to get traffic jams.
Many markets in rural areas are placed on both sides of the highway. When it comes to the market, many shops on both sides of the highway will move the things inside the store to the outside to set up stalls. In addition, those who come to the market to sell things will always fill the road with both sides.
When the people who went to the market to buy things in the village came, the road was really crowded. With the passing vehicles, it was really lively.
When Wu Fei was in high school in the county town, he sometimes went home on monthly vacations and encountered such scenes many times.
The shuttle bus was moving forward step by step on the section of the road where the market was going, and the car's horn never stopped.
But there are so many people on the road that you can knock the speaker out, and everyone will continue to do their own business. The bargaining sound is less than that of the speaker.
It was not until the car was about to be pushed to the body that he would give up his position. Anyway, Wu Fei was sitting in the car, and every time he saw it, he was worried about them, for fear of accidentally crushing the person.
There have been many accidents in the market in the highway market in recent years. The county has specially issued documents to manage highway markets. Several new markets have been built in towns with large traffic, which means they have drawn up a piece of land and put on iron shelves.
However, the results are not very good, and most of the newly built markets are deserted, so everyone is still used to doing business on both sides of the road.
There are many reasons. One is that everyone has been accustomed to doing business on both sides of the highway for many years, and most of the shops are also on both sides of the highway.
Also, the newly built markets are generally quite far from the main road. People who come to the market in the countryside usually take the bus, and the place to get off is on the main road. It is still a long way from the place to get off to the market.
The most important thing is that more than 90% of the shops are on both sides of the highway, which is the so-called storefronts in rural areas. In the countryside market, the main street is usually where the road passes, and most of the shops are on both sides of the highway.
People who came to the market in the village below could get off the bus and buy things at the stores on both sides. Of course, they were unwilling to run far away to the new market.
Those who buy things are unwilling to go, and those who do business are even more unwilling to go. In addition to being built, the town’s working members kept rushing people on the road when they arrived at the market, and the market was a little more popular.
However, after a while, the people slowly returned to the old place, and it was impossible for the town to come to drive people up often.
One is because of the lack of manpower, and the other is that everyone is from the villagers. They look up and see each other. It is not easy to drive people away when they drive them away. After a long time, they will naturally remain the same.
However, in the past two years, the county has to pay for the reconstruction of the road below. I heard that the plan has been released. The main body of the newly planned road is still expanded on the original road, but there are also many changes in the middle, mainly because all the newly planned roads avoided the markets with large traffic.
In this way, the car does not need to compete with the market. Nowadays, more and more people buy cars in rural areas, especially many people who work outside, drive their own cars home during the Chinese New Year.
At the end of the year, the following markets with large traffic were almost blocked from morning to night. A few years ago, when Wu Fei returned home, he drove Wu Fei for more than three hours.
At that time, the car was trapped in a crowd, and it was neither going nor retreating, so I bet for more than three hours. The few people who were on the bus had already gotten out of the car and returned home, and Wu Fei drove alone on the road torture.
The weather is already very cold at the end of the year, and sometimes the temperature is only a few degrees, and sometimes it drops below zero at night.
Wu Fei heard that a brother who drove an electric car was coming home from the county town early, thinking that the car's power was more than enough to drive to the home, so he didn't charge it again.
I originally thought I wouldn't have encountered traffic jams earlier, but who knew that the traffic police would block the road except for an accident on that road.
As a result, I was blocked on the market road, which lasted for several hours. At the beginning, the car was still on the air conditioner, and people were not only a little irritable, but also comfortable.
Later, as the car's battery dropped a little, the buddy panicked. He quickly turned off the air conditioner, and he felt uncomfortable. He didn't wear much clothes, but now when the air conditioner is turned off, the temperature in the car drops. When the car drives out of a concentrated place, the buddy used up a large bag of tissues in the car and then bought a pack from the shop facing the street. The snot in both nostrils can no longer be stopped.
I heard that after that time, if the guy didn't charge the car, he wouldn't dare to drive home.
There are really more and more cars in the countryside now, and the main reason is that the car prices are getting cheaper and cheaper. Some brands can buy a car that looks good for about 100,000 yuan. If you buy a loan, you can drive on the road with a down payment of 20,000 or 30,000 yuan.
There are also some people who do activities, which promote zero down payment and pick up cars. According to Wu Fei's internship training at a real estate sales company before, the teacher at that time seemed to have said that according to national regulations, no down payment is allowed for real estate and automobile sales, and the minimum down payment is 20%.
Later, Wu Fei also specifically checked the information. According to the provisions of the "Auto Loan Management Measures", the amount of loans issued by lenders for self-use shall not exceed 80% of the price of the car purchased by the borrower, that is, the minimum down payment for car purchases for consumers on loans shall not be less than 20%.
