Carrefour will stock bread (but don't expect it to be as good as in France) and Metro also stock bread. Some Chinese bakeries also sell french stick breads but again, they don't compare to the Western equivalent.

If they have the chain RT Mart (大润发) in Xi'an, it has a white bread that their bakers bake. It comes in big ass loaves for ~8 RMB. It is called 方包 and is indeed very square with a yellow label showing a sheaf of wheat.

 

Often, western style bread is labeled as ”salty"  to show it isn't sweet.

What kind of bread are you looking for? I think a couple of issues back Xianese talked about bread. I think all the larger supermarkets have a bread section that has something "good enough" for most bread needs.

As a xi'an local resident, i highly recommend you try "面包新语"(mian bao xin yu). it is very good bread  chain stores in xi'an. there have five subbranch in center and southern part of xi'an. i don't know which area close you place. but there has one subbranch nearby the bell tower. the specific address is  NO.26, fen xiang street, the south avenue, bei lin district(碑林区南大街粉巷26号)  this store very close the xi'an first hospital. (西安市第一人民医院).

go try it and you find out whether i am right or not.enlightened

Though living in Xi'an for 5 years, I find you  are  more familiar with Xi'an than me. You are really great explorers.

A:https://www.internationalschoolsreview.com/nonmembers/age-article.htm Teaching age limits were relaxed in China late 2019. Teachers who work in 2nd or 3rd tier cities are able to teach until 65.In China, if you meet the requirements for a class a work permit, there are no age restrictions. The class a work permit is for high end talent only. * (3/10/2017) China has begun to institute a new quite stringent regulation for expat teachers. It is based on points, one earns points for type of degree, at what university it came from, whether you can speak Chinese, and then age comes into play. The more points one has earned the better chance they have of staying in a contract and obtaining a work visa once they are 60. ... more ...  ... butT ..., see this one: https://www.hiredchina.com/what-are-the-new-rules-for-foreign-teachers-in-china-2023 New Rules for Foreign Teachers in China 2023In order to make it easier for foreign teachers to continue to teach in the country, the Chinese government has announced a series of new regulations that will come into effect in 2023.

In addition, any money earned from teaching will be exempt from tax. ... more ... -- icnif77
