Yuan Tiantian asked a question, and Si Mo gave an affirmative answer. Yuan Tiantian was shocked. So there really was such a thing! Later, Yuan Tiantian thought of the land on the back mountain that had been purified by the purification seeds. Would the things grown on it also have this effect? But this time, Si Mo didn't give her a direct answer. It just said,
"Host, please explore on your own."
Alright. Since she couldn't get an answer, Yuan Tiantian looked at the 2310 edible popularity points in her hand and the 320 gratitude points she had earned. She originally wanted to use them up, but thinking that there was still a lot of surplus food in the warehouse, she resisted the urge. Maybe something new would appear in a couple of days. Now, Yuan Tiantian was quite looking forward to what the Shengjing Cultivation Continent would bring to her mall. As for Xiaojiu's ocean world, it didn't matter if there were any items brought back. At least she still carefully stored most of that bag of tear pearls. Even without other things, it was enough!
At 11 p.m., Yuan Tiantian gave Xiaojiu a good bath and then went to sleep with her. Xiaojiu was really a cute little angel when she was asleep. Yuan Tiantian couldn't help but give a smooch on her fair and tender face. The sleeping child didn't respond at all, unlike when she was in the fish tank, full of energy. Then Yuan Tiantian turned off the light and went to sleep.
What Yuan Tiantian didn't know was that not long after she fell into a dream, her Tiantian Food Store directly made it onto the Weibo hot search. However, it was not in a good direction.
Someone started a topic on Weibo called "Why is the new store going crazy with publicity?" The host mainly said that a new food store didn't focus on making good food but instead did some flashy things online. It definitely wouldn't last long. There were also many people following suit in the comments.
"I went to check that Weibo. Those two videos look so fake. Could they be stolen from another store?"
"Right. The videos look real, but can a roadside store really achieve this? I don't believe it. If they have such skills, why don't they open a store anywhere else instead of in such a small place?"
"The one above analyzed it very well. But I'm neutral. I hope I can get a chance to debunk the rumors myself in this lottery!"
"You just don't understand. With this kind of thought of yours, they've achieved their goal. It's just a publicity tactic. I've seen through it!"
"Really? The tricks are so deep?!"
...
There were many comments like this. Occasionally, someone would refute, but they would be attacked by others. Although the popularity didn't reach the top, it was still hanging at the end, which really infuriated Bai Jingyang. He didn't know who started this topic. It was simply like making random rumors. They clearly hadn't even investigated. Why did they say such things?
Bai Jingyang directly logged into his main account and then used the official Weibo to @ the person who started the Weibo topic.
Tiantian Food Store: @The Taste of the World, bro, Tiantian Food Store sincerely invites you to come to our store for a free food tasting. We'll cover your accommodation and meals. This invitation is always valid for you. We hope that after you've eaten here, you can have a new understanding of our store.
The Taste of the World, whose real name was Han Jun, showed a mocking smile on his lips after seeing the @ from Tiantian Food Store. What tricks were these small stores up to this time? He had seen a lot of such things before. At first, he suspected that after the store invited people over, they would pay them off. But he, Han Jun, was not such a person!
Han Jun was a new - generation food column blogger. He was dedicated to finding delicious stores for food lovers and exposing those flashy food stores. When he saw the post about Tiantian Food Store forwarded by someone today, he got a bit angry. These people in the food business didn't focus on the dishes but instead resorted to such crooked ways! That's why he started that Weibo topic. He didn't expect it to gain so much popularity. Now, the official store had even invited him personally. Were they planning to buy him off offline?
Han Jun hadn't replied on his Weibo yet, but many of his fans left messages directly on his Weibo, saying,
"Big bro, go. Go and expose the fake for us. We trust you!"
"Right, big bro. Go and see what tricks this food store is up to!"
"Support big bro to expose the fake. I hope you can live - stream the whole process so that I can also observe this food store!"
...
After seeing the messages from his fans, Han Jun finally made a decision. Then he directly and boldly @ed Tiantian Food Store, stating that he would go for a tasting.
The Taste of the World: Alright, I'll go and have a look. I hope it won't be all talk and no substance @Tiantian Food Store
When Bai Jingyang saw this message, he smiled. It was good that he was coming. He was just afraid that Han Jun would keep talking nonsense without coming. In Bai Jingyang's opinion, as long as someone came to the store and had a meal, he really didn't believe that anyone would say the food in Tiantian Food Store was not delicious. If someone really said so, Bai Jingyang would first suspect that it wasn't that the young boss had made a mistake in cooking but that there was something wrong with that person's sense of taste.
Early the next morning, Bai Jingyang swaggered into the store. Now he had the pass to come and have breakfast. The other three were extremely jealous when they saw that he could come and eat. But one should be self - aware. Since the store didn't sell breakfast, they couldn't go there every time. So they could only have free breakfast at Aunt Qian Huashu's place. Yes, they also lived at Aunt Qian Huashu's.
As soon as Bai Jingyang sat down, he told Yuan Tiantian about the Weibo incident.
"Lottery and covering accommodation and meals?"
Yuan Tiantian frowned. She didn't know about this activity. Bai Jingyang quickly explained, "This is my personal sponsorship. The young boss doesn't need to spend any money!"
Hearing this, Yuan Tiantian frowned even deeper. This definitely wouldn't do. After all, it was the official Weibo of her store, and Bai Jingyang was just helping to manage it. Since the activity had already been announced, she should handle it. Otherwise, it would feel a bit strange, as if she was taking advantage of the other person. Yuan Tiantian didn't want that.
"No. Since this activity has been announced, let it be. The store will bear all the expenses incurred by those who come through the lottery and that blogger, The Taste of the World."
Yuan Tiantian felt a bit pained. This wasn't a small expense. There were a total of six people, five from the lottery and one being The Taste of the World. They were probably from all over the country, and the air tickets and accommodation wouldn't be cheap. Fortunately, the cost of food for her would be a bit lower. Thinking of this, Yuan Tiantian then gave Bai Jingyang a sidelong glance.
"In the future, when you plan to do this kind of activity, you have to tell me in advance. Whether we do it or not is another matter. You can't just do it first and inform me later."
Yuan Tiantian was already busy. She just simply logged in to Weibo to take a look and might not even look at it later. She couldn't afford for Bai Jingyang, this young master, to have a sudden whim at any time. Hearing this, Bai Jingyang touched his head embarrassedly and then said apologetically,
"Sorry. I thought it was too simple."
Yuan Tiantian wasn't really angry, nor did she think that Bai Jingyang had done a bad job this time. But as the boss, she should know about such things. Moreover, she wouldn't let Bai Jingyang bear these expenses. Even though the other person thought it was nothing, it was still her store's own business after all.
"It's okay. Don't take it too seriously. I don't blame you. Just remember to tell me next time."
Yuan Tiantian wasn't ungrateful. The other person had done this for the reputation of the food store. So this matter was just let go. Next, they just had to wait for this group of Weibo foodies to arrive.
What would their reactions be? Bai Jingyang was really looking forward to it.
