I think a decent breakfast in Guangdong costs about 20 yuan.

To have a good breakfast, I usually have a chicken feet and glutinous rice chicken, a steamed rice noodle, or rice noodles, or a bowl of porridge, and a cage of barbecued pork buns.

Now that prices are rising, I remember that there used to be several breakfast shops in the snack street at my doorstep. It’s almost 50 cents, and a full breakfast costs 2-3 yuan.

In the place where I had breakfast four or five years ago, the price of tofu noodles has risen to 2 yuan, and the fried dough sticks have also been successfully sold to 1 yuan each. If you add a side dish or something, the breakfast level has reached 5 yuan. about. I have rarely eaten breakfast in the past few years, but suddenly the price increased to 10 yuan +!

Sometimes for breakfast I have a bowl of old tofu, two fried dough sticks or two-yuan pancakes, a bowl of meatball soup, and then a bowl of wontons and a cage of steamed buns, which cost no more than ten yuan, and I can hardly afford it. Well, when I was a kid, eating two or three pieces for breakfast was much better than what I eat now.

Everyone knows that the living standard of a place is always directly proportional to the local development level. In our common sense, the higher the consumption level, the local economy will develop quite well. But there are also cities on the opposite side. It is obviously a third-tier city, but the consumption level there is ridiculous. Breakfast costs more than 20 yuan, which is really expensive.

The economic level here should be similar to that of Guilin and Liuzhou. The economy is not very developed, but the consumption level here is higher than that of other third-tier cities, and is comparable to that of Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou.
