What about Shantou's monthly salary of around 4000 yuan?

Due to the economic depression, the price increase in Shantou is limited, which is much cheaper than that in big cities in China.

In particular, the consumption of some villages in the city is surprisingly low. 3-5 yuan can have a full meal. Fast food used to be almost 3 yuan, but now it's in 4 yuan. In a new city, 5 yuan usually starts. Villages in the city (such as Longhu, Longyan, Jinsha) are mostly migrant workers from other provinces. If the consumption is high, there will be no market, and 800 yuan a month will be very good (by the way, I am talking about the most basic eating and drinking. Snacks, entertainment, clothes, fares and so on are not included. ) Some older urban areas in the city center can probably do the same. If you go to the East New District 1200- 1500, you can add several entertainment activities every week and get a car.

Eating out for three meals a day is five yuan, and it's only 450 yuan a month.

Plus some other basic consumption, I don't think you can't live in Shantou. You're not a college student downstairs, are you? Do college students look down on eating 4 or 5 yuan a meal now? Why can others live this life, but college students can't? The most economical way to eat now is to eat out. If you want to cook by yourself and reach the level of fast food outside, you should at least 10 yuan. You can try downstairs. Do you know how much a bottle of cooking oil costs? Do you know how much a bottle of liquefied gas costs now? Don't comment if you haven't lived independently.
