【Young people want to just lie flat in cities like Huizhou】
Want to just lie flat? Huizhou (Aotou) like this kind of city is just right for you!
I arrived yesterday—this is my second time in Aotou. My seventh brother arranged for his friend’s kayak, and I can even go net fishing. The best part is it’s free! They even want to treat me to a meal, and I haven’t added their WeChat yet.
I have an old habit: whenever I go to a new place, I always want to figure out local prices first—maybe it’s related to doing business back then. Also, I have to try the local specialties. I studied cooking, so why waste the chance? Here, the prices are really great:
Fresh lamb skewers and beef skewers are only 3 yuan per skewer—while in Shenzhen they’re 5, 6, or 8 yuan; a bowl of lamb stew noodles is 10 yuan—at least 20+ in Shenzhen; fresh figs are 5 yuan per jin—double in Shenzhen; and clothes from the same brand are generally about 30% cheaper. Even more outrageous is rent— a single room with a hall, kitchen, bathroom, and balcony costs only 300 yuan, and the area is even bigger than a two-bedroom one-living-room in Shenzhen, and cheaper than my hometown too...
My seventh brother earns around 15,000 yuan a month here, and his life is like being in heaven—no wonder he’s stayed for years.
Warren Buffett’s fondness for small cities also makes sense. Sure, he has money, but he’s not stupid.
Places like Huizhou (Aotou)—quiet, convenient for daily life, and with extremely low living costs—are also close to first-tier cities. It’s basically the ideal place for young people who just want to lie flat!
