EP three hundred and three. Subway station

If you were to grab a native New Yorker on the street and ask him where the largest number of homeless people are.

In addition to shelters specifically set up for homeless people, the answer that appears most often must be New York subway stations.

Why does this happen? The reason is that only the poor use public transportation.

If it were in China, the government would definitely increase investment and improve the use environment of public transportation in order to improve the shortcomings of the bucket.

But in the United States, which claims freedom and equality...

You know, this is a magical country that 'allocates funds from the community's taxes to pay police officers, and determines the number of patrol police officers based on the wealth of the community'!

People who use public transportation are poor, which means that it is difficult for the government to earn benefits from this area. Therefore, according to the rules of capital governance, they certainly will not make a large investment in public transportation.

Aging equipment cannot be updated and maintained, and most importantly, there is not much money to hire management personnel... The reason why subway stations have become a gathering place for homeless people is not just because they are underground and can be sheltered from the wind. It provides shelter from rain and has its own thermal insulation effect, mainly because the government has not invested human capital here to manage it.

"Kids, we're here."

Driving the dining car brought by Norman, we arrived near a subway entrance. After parking the car, Shi Xiaolei came to the three little ones who had just got off the SUV, squatted down and reminded them: "When you go to give them gifts later, you must not run around, you know? Also, follow others When speaking, be polite..."

It is rare for children to have such kindness, so of course they must be taken good care of. From the perspective of a parent, Shi Xiaolei did not want any unexpected situation to affect the children's mood.

So, how to avoid accidents?

The behavior of homeless people cannot be controlled or influenced by oneself, so one can only settle on the next best thing and start from the children's side.

After giving a few instructions and winking at Norman, Ben, 2B and others who were following him, Shi Xiaolei stood up and patted the heads of the three children one by one with a smile.

"Can we start?" She was still a child after all. Holding Shi Xiaolei's big hand, Kang Na raised her head, her little face full of eagerness to try.

"Then let's get started."

Smiling, Shi Xiaolei turned around, opened the compartment and jumped into the dining car.

The foam box was filled with cotton pads for thermal insulation. Because it didn’t take long to get here, the white cakes that had been made in the store were still warm and had not cooled down. The cooked cured meat was placed in a large pot, and the temperature was maintained very well.

After confirming the temperature, Shi Xiaolei started to work.

He first picked up the big pot containing the bacon and put it on the gas stove. While turning on the low heat to continue heating, he took out a few white cakes from the foam box, opened the oven and put them in... Although it hasn't cooled down yet, the crispness of the pancake has been somewhat affected by being stuffed for a while. If you want to restore its taste, it's best to bake it again for a short while.

Also entering the carriage to help prepare were Yixian and Ben's wife Mei.

"Yixian, help me chop some onions and peppers."

"Then I'll be responsible for serving the soup."

"Well, I'm sorry to trouble you, Mei. Be careful when using the sealing machine, don't get burned."

"OK."

The authentic Roujiamo only contains chopped cured meat and a little broth, and does not add onions and peppers as ingredients.

However, considering the tastes of Europeans and Americans, they may not be used to the original Roujiamo. Adding some onions and peppers may make it easier for them to accept it. In addition, considering the nutritional combination, I would like to In order to make the homeless people who rarely have a good meal eat more nutritious food, so Shi Xiaolei slightly modified the recipe and added some chopped vegetables as ingredients to today's Roujiamo.

The equipment on the car is very useful, and with three people working together, the efficiency is quite fast.

After a while, Shi Xiaolei had already prepared ten meat buns. With Yixian's help, Mei Ye quickly filled more than a dozen cups of vegetable soup that she cooked by herself, and sealed each cup.

"Which one of you will come first?" Shi Xiaolei looked at the three little ones standing under the dining car while packing according to the principle of 'two meat buns with a cup of thick soup'.

With their necks raised, their eyes full of urging and expectation, the three little ones looked like chicks in a bird's nest waiting for food.

"Give it to Peter." Norman smiled and took over the topic: "After all, he proposed this event."

"Harry, Connor, do you have any objections?"

While asking, Shi Xiaolei handed the basket out: "Ben, here it is, secure it."

With the efficiency of Shi Xiaolei and the other three, it only takes three to five minutes to complete the next batch. Thinking of this, Ben took the basket and said, "Then I'm not welcome. Peter, let's set off."

"Hmm~!" Nodding vigorously, Peter couldn't wait to pull on his uncle's sleeve: "There are a few homeless people over there, I saw them~"

There are still two or three hours before dark.

At this time... they may be squatting in the sheltered place by the roadside, begging passers-by; or going back and forth between the telephone booth and the vending machine, trying to get a few forgotten coins from the change slot; or going to the back door of the store, looking for discarded or leftover food from customers in the trash can. In short, at this moment, there are still many homeless people staying outside, and they have not returned to the subway station after "getting off work".

As expected of the little spider, Peter's cleverness has been reflected since he was a child-before parking just now, he has already memorized the locations of several homeless people who are active outside.

Compared with the little spider Peter, the little green devil Harry is not bad. After getting his own ration, he immediately dragged Norman and went in the opposite direction of Peter.

Only his own girl made Shi Xiaolei feel a little depressed.

"Xiaolei, can I have one?" Obviously, she had just eaten half an hour ago. At this moment, looking at the steaming meat bun in the basket, Connor unconsciously raised her head and asked Shi Xiaolei this question.

Didn't you say you were going to give it to the homeless? Why did you think of it first?

Looking at the little girl who loves food under the dining car, Shi Xiaolei couldn't help but frown.

"Pfft~." Not very familiar, after seeing this scene, Mei who stayed in the car couldn't help laughing: "Your Kanna is so cute. It would be great if we had such a cute little girl in our family."

From the tone, Mei's sincerity was heard, and she knew that she was not teasing or joking, but as Kanna's parent, Shi Xiaolei was still a little embarrassed.

Fortunately, Yixian helped to solve the siege: "Kanna, the basket is prepared for others. If you want to eat it, wait until you finish this trip and come back, I'll pick a big one for you, okay?"

"Emmm, okay~." After hesitating for a moment, the little girl finally made a choice: "Sylvia, let's hurry~."
