The bespectacled man looked at the cake roll in front of Qin Yi.

A thick, ice cream-like white veil covers the cake, which is filled with the fragrance of osmanthus.

There was a string of round, white glutinous rice balls on the veil.

The dumplings were sprinkled with apricot-yellow powder, and the caps were covered with bright yellow specks.

"This looks amazing, what's it called again?" the older brother asked.

"This one is called Osmanthus Soy Milk Cream Roll."

We didn't have time to take pictures of Qin Yi's billboard yet, the guys arrived too early, so we could only give an on-site explanation.

"The theme of this Swiss roll is harvest."

"It uses a cake base with osmanthus oolong flavor, and the cream in the middle is specially made with osmanthus fragrance. Because the floral aroma is strong, to avoid it being too sweet, I poured a layer of cheese foam on the cake roll."

Qin Yi pointed to the white topping that looked like ice cream and said, "A little sea salt was added to the milk foam, which makes the cake not only rich in cheese flavor but also adds a layer of texture. Finally, the glutinous rice balls on top and the soybean powder sprinkled on top symbolize a bountiful harvest."

As Qin Yi gave her vivid explanation, several other photographers nearby were also attracted. These people listened attentively, just like elementary school students listening to a teacher's lecture.

Upon hearing the word "harvest," everyone couldn't help but cheer: "A bountiful harvest is great! I want this! After eating this, I'll have a bountiful harvest! Haha!"

"How much is it, boss?"

"A full roll costs 200 yuan, but it's best to buy half a roll to enjoy it and for the best presentation. If you're eating alone, I suggest buying half a roll for 100 yuan."

"100 yuan for a cake? That's really a bit expensive." Two of the personal shoppers didn't come yesterday and didn't know Qin Yi's usual prices.

"What's so expensive about it! I bought a whole roll for 200 yuan yesterday. The cake made by this girl is soft and delicate, and the cream is fragrant but not greasy. Her skills are definitely worth the price! Give me half a roll of this 'Harvest'! You can tell it's delicious just by looking at it!"

After their heart-to-heart talk, the bespectacled man clearly considered Qin Yi one of his own.

While Qin Yi was packing the cake, he took out a business card and placed it on the table: "If you need any help in this Fangzhou area, you can contact me, Jing Tian. My fees are reasonable, I treat everyone fairly, and I never break the law!"

Qin Yi smiled and accepted the business card from the bespectacled man, Jing Tian.

The other people who were bidding were also really tempted by the cake, and their slight concerns about the price were dispelled by Jing Tian's approval.

"Give me half a roll too."

"I want one too."

"Boss, count how many people are here. Each person gets half a roll, let's make it together."

A great start! Eight people bid on the tickets, and one person bought half a roll. Qin Yi completed one-fifth of her daily task as soon as she opened her stall.

These paparazzi were each holding a plate of cake and standing in front of a tripod.

Turn on your phone and start the live stream.

While waiting for Jiang Yuze to arrive, Jing Tian ate her cake roll breakfast and chatted with her fans.

He picked up a bamboo skewer with six plump glutinous rice balls covered in soybean powder on it, and slurped up two in one bite.

He puffed out his cheeks while talking to his fans.

[Brother Jing, what's that in your mouth? You look like a groundhog.]

"Brother is having breakfast. These meatballs smell amazing."

What good food can you find outside Zhuangwang Park? Last time I visited Yuze, I didn't eat a thing all day. Ark City is truly a food desert; no wonder celebrities are so thin.

"Normally, it's like this. But what I'm eating today is something you've definitely never had before. It's fragrant, tender, and delicious." Jing Tian bent down and took a big bite of cake off-camera.

Stop keeping me in suspense, or I'll unfollow you for the second time.

"This is so fragrant with osmanthus, and it even has a hint of the pure flavor of oolong tea. How can the owner be so good at cooking!"

With his eyes closed, Jing Tian was completely immersed in the fragrant world of Osmanthus Oolong tea.

When he finished chewing and opened his eyes, the screen kept flashing.

[Two warnings to unfollow!]

[Warning three times!]

"Hehe, princesses, don't be impatient, I'll show you."

After saying that, Jing Tian picked up the cardboard box containing the cake roll, "See this? This is the Osmanthus Harvest Cake Roll. It's so delicious, but it's expensive. 100 yuan for half a roll. It really hurts my wallet to eat it!"

[Was it made by the lady with the pink and white dessert cart? I had her Maillard rose roll yesterday! It's the same one my brother had!]

[What do you mean, "the same style as my brother"?! The person upstairs needs to clarify!]

[It's the cake my brother posted on his alternate account yesterday! It was made by this lady! My sisters and I waited in line for over an hour before she finally made it for us!]

[Oh my god! What did I miss! No way, Jing-ge, can you go buy me some cake rolls too? I'll pay you a service fee!]

[Me too! Me too! I want the same thing as my brother, and I also want what you're eating today!]

Jingda ate the fragrant cake roll in his hand while looking at the messages scrolling on his phone screen.

A way to make money automatically formed in my mind.

“It’s not that I can’t eat here, but you all live in the city center, which is more than two hours away from Ark. It takes me four hours to go back and forth. It’s very tiring. I also have to get up early every day to take pictures of my brother.”

After saying that, he slurped up two plump meatballs, paired them with a bite of creamy cheese, and closed his eyes, looking so blissfully as if he were about to ascend to heaven.

[The world is a bustling place, all driven by profit; ruthless people, name your price!]

[That's right, we'll give you a commission for buying it for us! Lots of girls in our group want to buy the same items as our idol, you'll make a good profit!]

Ida slightly opened one eye and peeked at the fans' comments.

"Hey! I'll take a picture of the boss's menu prices for you first, then you can add me on WeChat and we'll count the number of people. If there are a lot of people buying, I'll drive and deliver it to you."

"Let's agree on the price first. For example, my cake is half a roll. The seller sells it for 100 yuan, and I charge 100 yuan for the purchase. So, with the purchase fee, it's 200 yuan for half a roll and 400 yuan for a whole roll. If you can accept that, add me on WeChat."

[Brother Jing, you're so dark-skinned!]

This middleman isn't making a profit from the price difference, he's profiting from skyrocketing prices!

"You can't say that. I also have to drive all that way to deliver it to you, and once I get to the city, I have to hire someone to deliver it to each of your homes. You just have to pay and sit back and wait to eat. We each get what we need, and it's a free market!"

"And from what I observed yesterday, this owner closed up shop at noon, so if you want to buy, hurry up! I'll collect the quantities and then place the orders."

Ida pointed his phone at the dessert cart to broadcast live.

I took my camera and took pictures of the advertising light board that had just been put up for the Swiss rolls, and also some pictures of the actual cakes displayed in the glass showcase.

He posted the photo on his WeChat Moments, along with the caption.

#Buying the same cake as my brother, made and shipped today, delivered to your door. 200 yuan/half roll, 400 yuan/full roll#
