After the founding of the People's Republic of China, with the recovery and develop-ment of the economy and the increasing popula-tion of Beijing, the supply and marketing of vege-tables in Beijing suffered from insufficient sup-ply, seasonal shortages, and poor sales of a cer-tain type of vegetables. In order to solve these problems and respond to the slogan of "serving the capital", the Beijing Municipal Party Commit-tee and Municipal Government reformed the poli-cy of vegetable supply and marketing continuous-ly such as "acquisition and underwriting", state monopoly of vegetables wholesale, "unified pur-chasing and marketing", and transforming vegeta-bles vendors. The survival space of self- em-ployed vendors has been squeezed, and the state has gradually brought the vegetables indus-try into the orbit of state-planned economy. Al-though the free market of vegetables sales has been repeatedly banned, it could not be prohibit-ed completely.
