Chapter 173: Martial Arts? Pancake?
"What?"
Feng Shiyan took the paper bag curiously, only to feel that it was warm in his hands, and he could faintly smell the strong aroma of wheat after roasting.
However, he was not in a hurry to open it, mainly because he did not have too high expectations for the food of this era.
"Open it and try it!"
As if seeing the disdain on Feng Shiyan's face, Wan Hong smiled, "Aren't you a cook?" Open it and try it, brother, can I still trick you? ”
Having said that, Feng Shiyan also opened the paper bag with a smile.
"Baked cakes?" Feng Shiyan glanced at Wan Hongzhuang with some surprise.
"It's a baked cake!" Wan Hongzhuang smiled: "Hurry up and try it!" ”
In the paper bag, the two baked cakes were steaming, and there were a few black spots scattered on the burnt crust...... Everything is just right, and it would be nice if it could be garnished with some sesame seeds.
This pancake is about the size of an adult's palm, and it is bulging in the middle, and I don't know if there is any stuffing in it.
Feng Shiyan picked up a baked cake, the temperature was just right, and carefully stuffed it into his mouth, a strong wheat fragrance instantly filled his mouth, and a sense of satisfaction arose!
"Incense!"
Feng Shiyan subconsciously blurted out.
This baked cake is indeed amazing to him, as a "half-step kitchen god", he has tasted countless delicacies...... But in this day and age, his expectations have long been lowered indefinitely, so tasting something that tastes pretty good all at once does produce a feeling that exceeds expectations!
Originally, he didn't feel very hungry, but under the impact of this fragrance, Feng Shiyan suddenly felt hungry.
After eating the baked cake in his hand, his hand involuntarily stretched out to the second baked cake.
Wan Hongzhuang looked at Feng Shiyan with interest, this kind of plot had been staged in front of him many times, and Feng Shiyan was definitely not the last.
"It smells so good!"
Like a whirlwind of clouds, two baked cakes instantly entered Feng Shiyan's stomach, and his expression seemed to be a little unfinished.
Feng Shiyan couldn't help but admire: "If you have time, you really have to meet this pastry chef and ask him for advice......
Although he is a senior cook, the pastry is actually a blind spot in his knowledge, and the cake he tasted today really made him have the urge to learn......
"What's so hard about that?" Wan Hongzhuang smiled incomprehensibly: "This bread seller is in the west of our city?" ”
"Selling bread? West? ”
Feng Shiyan felt that his brain couldn't turn for a while.
In his view, the west of the city is like a sweatshop, where all people need to work non-stop in exchange for the right to survive and the possibility of leaving...... Why, there are still people doing business in the west of the city?
"We'll talk as we go."
Wan Hongzhuang walked ahead by himself, "Where we are now is the main road to the west of the city, Xuanwu Street, ......which leads to the government office."
"Doesn't it look ordinary?" Wan Hongzhuang turned his head and asked.
Feng Shiyan nodded, "Except for the road being a little wider, the houses on both sides are clean and neat, and there doesn't seem to be anything outstanding." ”
"It's just weekdays." Wan Hongzhuang said with a smile: "On weekdays, it is indeed no different from other streets in the west of the city, but at the end of every month, there will be a big gathering in the west of the city for all the people in the west of the city to have fun and play. ”
Feng Shiyan was stunned: his impression of Chengxi may be a little stereotypical.
"And this baked cake?"
Wan Hongzhuang took out a baked cake and took a bite hard, "There are still some people, even if they can leave, they don't want to go to other places, but stay in the west of the city and start some small livelihoods." ”
"This is one of them."
"Although you may not make as much money as in other places, it is better to be stable, not to mention that you have to find a way to settle down in other areas of Suzhou Prefecture...... But in the west of the city, at least you don't have to worry about where to live, so ......"
Feng Shiyan nodded, the housing problem is a headache in any era, not to mention in Suzhou Mansion, which is now considered to be the best among the first-tier cities, and the housing prices are naturally unattainable.
"Then do business, does anyone buy it?"
"Don't think that the west of the city is just blindly pressing, although the wages here are not as generous as in other areas, they will not let you work in vain, so the basic salary is still there, but it is not much."
"What's more, even if they are fleeing, those people will basically bring those valuable belongings with them, so not everyone is poor and white."
After speaking, Wan Hongzhuang looked at Feng Shiyan with ill will...... It is estimated that Feng Shiyan is the poorest person in the entire west of the city.
"Actually, it's a big game of chess." Wan Hongzhuang said with a smile: "To do business in the west of the city, you also need to obtain a license, and taxes and fees will be levied according to your revenue, of course, the tax rate will not be very high. ”
"It's a kind of closed loop!" Feng Shiyan suddenly realized.
First of all, the west of the city is like a factory like Foxconn, with a steady stream of refugees, workers on the assembly line, working non-stop every day to create value in exchange for a meager income.
After having income, you have two choices: one is to save, after all, the west of the city is covered with food and shelter, but if you want to improve, then you have to consume, naturally there is commercial circulation, part of the income you get will flow into the hands of small traders, and the other part will flow into Suzhou in the form of taxes, which is equivalent to forming a cycle.
The person who was able to come up with this idea was a genius!
"Therefore, there are indeed some people who are unwilling to leave the west of the city, including this Wuda who sells baked cakes!"
"Wu ...... Big......? Feng Shiyan suddenly stammered, "Wuda! ”
"What, do you know Wuda?" Wan Hongzhuang looked at Feng Shiyan with a surprised look on his face and asked curiously.
"No, I don't know......" Feng Shiyan flatly denied, "I'm just a little curious about the person who can make such a baked cake." ”
"Yes!"
Wan Hongzhuang said to himself, "If you want to say that this martial arts university has been in the west of the city for several years, it seems that it is impossible to have anything to do with you." ”
"However, if you want to find Nawu Da, it is not difficult, after all, he sets up a stall at the end of this Xuanwu Avenue every morning, and he is short and can be recognized at a glance."
"Hmm!" Feng Shiyan looked at the end of the long road in distraction, and secretly remembered this incident in his heart......
Of course, it may also be just the same name and surname, and suddenly, he seemed to think of something and asked, "I don't know if this Wuda has a brother?" ”
"What? Do you really know him? Wan Hongzhuang's face was surprised, "This Wuda does have a brother, and he is still on an errand in our office!" Usually we call him Takeji. ”
"!"
Feng Shiyan was stunned, could it really be Wu Song and Wu Dalang?
Also, it seems that this Wu Song has not yet gone to Liangshan?
It's a thigh, and no matter what, it's going to have to be clenched.
Feng Shiyan looked at the end of Xuanwu Street, and for a while, his thoughts were a little messy.
