"Eggplant, cucumber, sell cheaply!" At seven or eight in the morning, a abandoned railway tunnel near Yingshan Red Bus Station in Shapingba District, Chongqing City became lively.

This tunnel was built in the 1960s and was a tunnel of the Special Steel Railway of Chongqing Special Steel Factory. Last year, the Dahegou Market in Heping Mountain Community, Shijingpo Street, Shapingba District was demolished. Before the completion of the new vegetable market, this abandoned tunnel was converted into a temporary vegetable market, which facilitated more than 4,000 surrounding residents to buy vegetables. It is "Dongzi Cai City".

"The original vegetable market is really dirty, there are many illegal booths, and the sale of vegetables is high. It will still be flooded in the flood season. We often go to rescue." Zhou Guangning, secretary of the party committee of Heping Mountain Community, said, "Take the opportunity of transformation of old communities, It is a good thing to remove the original vegetable market, but in the process of demolishing the old construction, where the residents went to buy food became a problem. "

Lin Xiuzhen, a resident in the district of inconvenience in the jurisdiction, was very worried: "If the vegetable market is repaired on the mountain, I can't climb up, and I may not be able to buy food."

After the residential meeting was held for soliciting opinions, the community selected the temporary vegetable market in the abandoned railway tunnel 50 meters away from the original vegetable market. In March last year, the street funded tens of thousands of yuan to rebuild the "Dongzi Cai City", including the establishment of booths, installation of lighting circuits, production signs, etc., and also hired a special person to be responsible for cleaning.

Today, the "Dongzi Vegetable Market" is rich in agricultural and sideline food products such as meat, aquatic products, fruits and vegetables, and prices. The retired resident Du Mother -in -law came to buy vegetables every morning, praising "Dongzi Cai City", "clean and comfortable, and rest assured."

The stall owner also felt that the "Dongzi Cai City" was affordable. Xiong Chaoxue, who operates a water -conscious stall, said that the booth fee is 150 yuan per month, which is one -third of the original vegetable market, and the hole in the cave is better. Fresh goods can be placed for two more days than before.

"Second brother, you said that the last time I said it was not enough, I will send you again!" Xiong Chaoxue said with a smile and greeted the guest, while he was hesitating to pack it. He and his wife came here to sell water products from Hechuan in Chongqing in 1989, and have opened a husband and wife shop for more than 30 years. When some old friends do not buy aquatic products, they also like to go to his booth to "swing the dragon door array" and talk about the family.

For more than a year, ordinary people have used to buy food in "Dongzi Cai City", and the new vegetable market on the mountain has been built. The residents who often come to buy vegetables and the stall owner of the vegetable market are now most concerned about whether this temporary vegetable market can continue. They said that "Dongzi Cai City" is under the mountains, and the elderly do not need to climb the slopes to buy food, and the booth fee is relatively cheap.

Zhou Guangning said that the community will fully consider the people's demand for "Dongzi Cai City" and strive to keep it. In the future, the street office and the community will combine the old community cities to update projects to include this tunnel into planning as much as possible to create a more standardized "Dongzi Cai City".
