Chaoying's small group [Zhongyingmei]

After Daisy got acquainted with money, she began to have a general idea of ​​the value of this world.

Money is not exactly equivalent to a card that can be swiped, but also equivalent to various currencies, including banknotes and coins.In the country where she lives, the smallest coin denomination is one cent and the largest coin denomination is one hundred dollars.

The purchasing power of a penny is completely different from that of a hundred dollars.

Daisy also realized that everyone has a house, but a house is different from a house, just like an Audi and a Maserati.

But no matter how different it is, there is one fact that remains the same. When everything is produced, it has been clearly marked with a price, and it is worth as much as it is worth. Just like one plus one equals two, the equation and the number are constant, how? It won't change either.

Baby Daisy's understanding of price stability lasted for a long time.

Cognitive subversion began with a conversation in kindergarten.

Back then, Doctor Strange wasn't reposting coupons in superhero chat groups.

Everything remains what it is.

Missy got the watch she had always wanted, came to the kindergarten, and happily showed it to Daisy.

"This is the watch my mother bought for me!" Missy said proudly.

"Wow." Daisy looked at the glittering little princess watch on Missy's wrist, and thought it was very beautiful, "The watch is beautiful!"

"It's very beautiful." Missy said, "But it's a bit expensive, so my mother bought it for me when it was on sale."

"What's a discount?" Daisy asked.

Missy was a little surprised, her mouth was wide open, as if an egg was stuffed: "You don't know what a discount is?"

Daisy was a little ashamed: "My dad didn't tell me."

"How could Tony Stark buy discounted goods?" Sheldon said.

Missy then told Daisy: "A discount means that things become cheaper, and you can buy expensive things with very little money."

She said, "My watch is twenty dollars cheaper."

"Twenty dollars cheaper," Daisy read on.

"That's right." Seeing her still puzzled, Missy took out her notebook and showed Daisy the drawing, "It's like I can only buy two apples for one dollar, but if there is a discount, I can buy three apples for one dollar." an apple."

Daisy was shocked when she understood.

"How's that for?" she asked. "He just can't make money."

"Then I don't know." Missy said, "But discounts can save a lot of money."

That's right.

This afternoon, after school, Daisy went to the supermarket with Wendy to see the world of discounts.

"Want to buy discounted products?" Wendy was confused by Daisy's sudden request, but with a heart to satisfy the child's thirst for knowledge, she took Daisy to the supermarket.

"Do you know what a sale is, Wendy?" Daisy asked.

"Of course I know." Wendy said, "When I was still in school, I bought a lot of discounted items. Discounted bags and shoes, even though they are out of season, are still as good-looking, and there is no loss at all."

When she said this, she exuded the light of a prophet and wise man.

Wendy Green is also a very interesting person.She is not short of money, but she also enjoys saving money, so she knows all the money-saving tricks that Mrs. Cooper knows.

Finally it was time to go out.

Tony just came back from the outside and passed these two people who were going out in the corridor. He felt that the two of them had an extraordinary aura, as if they were going out to do something important.

Wendy's car parked steadily in the parking lot of the supermarket.

Sitting on the shopping cart, Daisy felt that the supermarket was still the same, but because of the discounted products in it, everywhere she went was very different.

The same piece of chocolate is placed on the ordinary shelf, and the price will be paid for whatever it should be, but when you turn around and go to the discount shelf, the price will jump off the building and become very cheap.

"Look, it's five dollars cheaper." Wendy said to Daisy.

Daisy was very happy and reached out to get it.

"However, there are reasons for the discount." Wendy taught Daisy, "The reason why the chocolate is cheap is because it is near the expiry date and it is no longer fresh."

"What if it's not fresh?" Daisy asked.

"It's not fresh, it doesn't mean it's broken, it's still edible." Wendy put the chocolate back on the shelf, and said with a smile, "Mr. Stark will not agree to let you eat something that is not fresh."

Food is discounted because it is no longer fresh, so there are also discounts on inedible things.

"Some are for promotion, and some are for inventory." Wendy pushed Daisy to the daily necessities area, and showed Daisy the discounted products here, "Don't worry about the merchant losing money, if it loses money, it won't reduce the price." The price sold."

"We have all these things at home." Wendy didn't put any of them in the shopping cart, "There's no need to buy unnecessary things just to take advantage of the discount."

Leaving the daily necessities area, Wendy chose a few fresh but not discounted ingredients and put them into the shopping cart.

Daisy felt that it was a pity: "It just can't save money."

Wendy smiled slightly.

There seemed to be some deep meaning in her smile, and Daisy didn't understand it at first, but Daisy didn't understand it until she paid the bill.

When checking out with the cashier, Wendy not only took out her credit card, but also took out a piece of paper and handed it to the cashier.

The cashier scanned the paper, and Daisy saw the numbers on the display jump and change, becoming a number that was smaller than the initial price.

"The money is different." Daisy said.

"Because I used a coupon." Wendy said, "It's also considered a discount, but you can buy fresh products."

"If it is combined with discounted products, it will be more powerful." She said.

Daisy opened her eyes wide.

In the world, there is not only an equation where one plus one equals two, but also an equation where one is multiplied by 20.00% to get the number zero-two. There is more than one way to get such a discount.

Little Daisy Stark has seen the world this time.

"From now on, can we use coupons every day?" Daisy asked.

"It's only available when the store distributes it." Wendy said, "For the food, whether it's discounted or not, you have to buy the freshest."

When I went back this afternoon, Wendy made dinner for Stark and his daughter with discounted vegetables. Tony ate it and didn’t feel anything. , as long as the ingredients are clean and fresh, and the dishes are delicious, they don’t care about whether the dishes are bought back at a discounted price with coupons.

Daisy ate with gusto.

The taste of the cheap dishes seemed to be better than usual, and the dumplings ate up all the food.

Daisy originally thought that discounts and coupons were a paradise for price carnivals, but she didn't know that a mountain is higher than a mountain, and the next time she goes to the supermarket, she will gain new insights.

"Things don't need money!" Daisy said to Missy in the kindergarten.

Daisy came across a tasting stand in the supermarket, baked sausages and unpacked new flavor biscuits, although she could only eat a little bit, she could eat many kinds of food without paying.

The elder sister who baked sausages saw that Daisy was cute, so she gave some more, which made Daisy smile.

Who would have thought that the child who ate free food samples in the supermarket would be the daughter of the Stark family?

"Of course you don't need money." Missy said, "Besides food, there is one more thing you don't need money for."

When she said that, Daisy's ears perked up, eager to know the answer.

"It's a gift!" Missy said very knowledgeably, "The gift is just for giving, no money is required."

"Really?" Daisy asked.

"As long as you buy things, you can often get free gifts." Missy said, "If you don't believe me, just ask your father."

Daisy really went to ask Tony.

The chairman was looking at a luxury shopping magazine. Hearing this, he raised his eyes, glanced at his daughter from the edge of the magazine, and said, "I remember that I will send some things, but they are not very useful, so you don't have to."

"But no money, Dad," said Daisy.

"We're not short of money."

What Tony said inadvertently is exactly what many rich kids agree with.

Heather and Angela, who had nothing to do, could not approve of Daisy's money-saving behavior.

"How do you eat samples?" Heather asked Daisy, "If you want to buy ingredients, you have to send them to the chef of the restaurant to cook, don't eat the ones cooked by the waiter."

"That's delicious too," Daisy said.

"Don't take the gifts either!" Angela said.

While they were saying this, Daisy was telling Missy that her father had given her a box of chocolates yesterday as a gift.

Daisy was very happy, because she saw this box of chocolates in a magazine and thought it was very delicious, so she really wanted to buy it and try it.

In the end, I didn't expect to get it without buying it at all, as if I made a hundred million.

"When I eat chocolate, I always go to Belgium to buy it." Angela said, "It costs a lot of money. But my mother said that it doesn't matter if you spend money, as long as I like it."

"I also like my chocolate." Daisy said, "It doesn't cost any money, it's just as good."

You can get as much pleasure from gifts as you can from luxuries.

One enjoys the fun of earning, and the other enjoys the fun of spending money. The prices of commodities vary from high to low, but there is no distinction between high and low happiness.

This is really a complicated proposition, and Angela couldn't understand it. Seeing Daisy's happy expression, she was inexplicably depressed, and turned her head to play.

"Does that make you happy?" Tony asked as he handed Daisy the chocolate.

"Happy, Dad!" said Daisy. "You can get very good things without spending money, right?"

That's not necessarily the case—Tony looked at his happy daughter and thought about spending tens of millions of dollars to buy the chocolates that came with the car. In fact, it was considered expensive, and the incidental value had already been included in the price of the car.

But Daisy's pure joy really came at no cost.

Thinking of this, Tony closed his mouth and did not continue.

After that, Daisy occasionally misses the taste of the chocolate as a gift, and every time she thinks about it, she can feel the joy of eating chocolate again.

It's a pity that there are very few opportunities to give away chocolates, only once or twice in total.

Probably such precious free opportunities are very rare.
