After Chen Xia ran away, he found a public restroom. Seeing that no one was around, he immediately entered the space hospital.

In his previous life, Chen Xia had a good income as a doctor, but his salary and bonuses were directly deposited into his bank card. He would just look at the numbers on the text messages every time, so he didn't visually feel the power of money.

But this time it was different. All the money received was in cash. Looking at the pile of colorful banknotes, Chen Xia was so excited.

After counting the bills one by one, the total amount was 2,000 yuan, which means 5,000 kilograms of rice were sold.

This is thanks to hunger marketing. People who later lined up to buy rice were afraid that the rice might run out of stock at any time, so they bought at least 50 kilograms.

After a morning like this, half of the rice in the space was sold, and after recovering all the costs, the rest was net profit.

These days, it's true that the bold will die of overeating, while the timid will die of starvation. It's a pity that the logistics conditions for the circulation of goods are not yet met, otherwise this would be a golden age for profiteers to make money.

After counting the money, Chen Xia walked out of the space excitedly. He forgot about his surroundings when he was so happy.

Today's public toilets are not like those in later generations, which have doors and independent environments. They are generally just squat toilets, separated by half-person-high brick walls at most.

So when Chen Xia suddenly appeared in the squat toilet, he scared a middle-aged man who was taking a defecation next to him half to death.

"Oh my god, what the hell? When I went into the restroom, there was no one squatting in the next toilet. How come someone suddenly walked out now? It must be because I work the night shift all the time. Amitabha, God bless you."

At this time, Chen Xia, who had made money and was full of confidence in the future, was happily walking on the street looking for a place to have lunch.

In the provincial capital today, meals are still mainly taken up in state-owned restaurants. Chen Xia had a quirk in his previous life and was not very interested in big restaurants. He thought that the chefs' cooking methods and tastes were all similar anyway, and he was tired of eating there.

In his previous life, whenever Chen Xia traveled to a place, he particularly liked to search for some famous local snacks on the Internet, and then specifically find these snack shops in the corners of the city to taste the food.

Chen Xia was also not interested in the home-cooked meals in these state-owned restaurants, and he could not afford to stay in those high-end restaurants that catered to foreign guests. So, according to his personality, he wandered around and searched for folk delicacies in the street corners and alleys.

What's more, he actually found one. The shop was very simple, with only a few crooked words on the sign.

"Tofu dumplings".

When Chen Xia walked to the door, he smelled the fragrance from the steamer and his mouth started watering.

Since his rebirth, he has never had a good taste of xiaolongbao, and he can't buy any snacks in Xipu Commune.

"Boss, how much are these dumplings?"

The shopkeeper was a simple and honest middle-aged man. He smiled and said:

"I don't dare call you boss. We opened this shop ourselves to provide breakfast for the residents in the surrounding communities. We open it all day just to make more money."

Chen Xia nodded. It seemed that the boss was feeling guilty, otherwise there would be no need to explain anything to a foreigner like him.

"What's the price?"

"These xiaolongbao and baozi are both handmade by our ancestors. Xiaolongbao costs 25 cents per serving, and you need 200 grams of grain coupons. If you don't have grain coupons, you can still have it, but it will cost 30 cents per serving, hehe."

When Chen Xia heard this, he thought, well, since we are in the same industry, it will be more expensive if we don’t use food coupons.

But since we are in the same industry, I can understand that it is not easy for anyone to make some money secretly these days, especially for those who work in snack and catering businesses, who all have a hard time.

"Okay, give me two servings of xiaolongbao and a bowl of wontons."

"Okay, please sit inside, it will be ready soon."

The xiaolongbao tastes really good, with thin skin, rich sauce and delicious flavor. It is indeed an old craft passed down from generation to generation.

Because it tasted good, Chen Xia ordered another bowl of Xiaolongbao. When he finally paid the bill, the total cost was 1 yuan and 5 cents, and he didn't pay any food coupons.

When Chen Xia was about to leave, he suddenly discovered that there were still many snacks in the store, including fried dough sticks, meat buns, vegetable buns, scallion-wrapped cypress, and steamed cakes, all of which exuded an enchanting aroma that made him drool.

Okay, let’s buy some. We won’t be able to eat such delicious food when we go back to the countryside.

Anyway, I don’t need food coupons. As for it being a bit expensive, it’s okay. I can close the door and secretly take it out to give to my younger brothers and sisters.

So this roadside snack bar welcomed a wealthy customer today.

I ordered 100 meat buns, 100 fried dough sticks, and a lot of other snacks. Unfortunately, I didn’t buy the most delicious tofu dumplings. These thin-skinned dumplings are impossible to take away without a steamer, and I can’t buy the steamer too.

The shop owner couldn't stop smiling and quickly called his wife out. The two of them steamed buns and fried dough sticks.

After working for more than an hour, I finally prepared all the snacks. When I counted the money, I found that I spent 30 yuan, which is a month's salary for an ordinary worker.

Chen Xia also spent 60 cents to buy three boxes, packed all the food, and asked the store owner to help move it to the entrance of a residential building. Taking advantage of the fact that there was no one around, he quickly put the food into the space, then put his hands in his trouser pockets and left whistling.

This unexpected discovery completely aroused Chen Xia's appetite. Even though he was reborn into this era of hunger, he didn't want to treat himself badly.

In his previous life, he was a "salted fish". His father was the vice president of Jiangzhou Hospital and his mother was the director of the nursing department. His family conditions were relatively good since he was a child. Especially since he was the youngest son, he had no worries about food and clothing, and he had a bit of a spoiled brat temperament.

To put it nicely, his personality is one of nonchalance, but to put it bluntly, he is lazy.

Unlike other doctors who stay in the hospital every day to perform surgery and almost die from overwork, he prefers to enjoy life and tries not to be a "work slave".
