Don't Look Down on the Common Folk of Old
For two years, Sun Jianming has run a food stall outside the industrial park. He treats Lin Zhixia, a regular customer, to the so-called regular-customer price of 22 yuan, while charging new workers only 18 yuan and giving them a braised egg and unlimited beef. When Lin Zhixia confronts him, he snaps, 'If you think it's expensive, don't eat here!' She dumps the entire bowl of noodles and cuts ties with him for good. Across the street, at Chen's Noodle Stall, the young couple Chen Yuening and Zhou Jing'an serve generous portions at the same price to everyone. 'Treat every customer as an equal' is the very foundation of a good bowl of soup. The scales in front of a humble street stall have never weighed just noodles, but a person's conscience.

工业园区门口摆摊两年的孙建明,把林知夏当熟客宰熟客价二十二块,新工人十八块还配卤蛋、牛肉管够。林知夏当面问破,被骂“嫌贵别吃”,倒掉整碗面就此绝交。换成侧面陈记小面摊,小两口陈悦宁、周景安一碗面给足分量、收一样的价。“所有人都当成平等的食客”,才是这口汤不馊的根。烟火摊前那一杆秤,称的从来不是面,是良心。
