It was the time for everyone to go to work, and there were many people coming and going. Seeing Xu Ying setting up the pot and lighting the coal fire, they were all very curious: "What is this for?"
"Hello, we are from Yu County Food Factory. Here are our new braised duck, braised pork and fried food. You can try them for free.
Everyone can try it. Even foreigners like our new product very much. They placed orders worth millions during the Chinese New Year.
Foreigners have eaten such delicious food from China, so there is no reason why we can't have it too." Xu Ying said lala.
When these people heard that foreigners also liked to eat it and even ordered so much money, they thought, wow, it must be delicious.
Everyone looked at the time and urged, "Girl, can you do it faster? We have to go to work."
Xu Ying smiled when she heard it: "It will be ready soon."
The braised duck is already prepared, and the fried duck is also a semi-finished product. You just need to heat the oil and fry it.
Uncle Xu poured out all the braised duck.
He waved to the crowd and said, "Here is our braised duck. You can have a taste. It's free. If it tastes good, tell your family and they can bring it back for free."
When the employees who came to work heard this, they became alert. In this day and age, meat can be tasted for free, and you can bring your family with you? There must be some kind of deception here!
Yang Nan was heartless and shameless. He stood in front of the stall and shouted loudly: "Don't miss it if you pass by. We are from Yu County Food Factory and we are having a free tasting event today.
The main purpose is to investigate whether our products are good. If they are good, we will sell them in the department stores in this city. If they are not good, we will not go through the trouble.
Don't worry, we are scammers. We have formal letters of introduction. Besides, there are so many of you, how can we cheat you?"
The big guy who was still hesitating couldn't help swallowing his saliva when he smelled the faint aroma of braised duck and braised pork.
There are so many of them, how can this group of people cheat them? If they try to cheat them out of money, they will report this group of people for profiteering.
They would not be fooled anyway, so they became bolder and walked over curiously: "How about trying this?"
"The main reason is that there are so many of you and our products are limited, so each person can only eat a small piece." Uncle Xu smiled and picked up a piece of meat and gave it to the person who came.
When the man took a bite, his mouth was filled with the aroma of meat, mixed with sweetness and spiciness, which was not satisfying at all.
"Little brother, can I have another piece?" This thing is so delicious.
The taste lingers on the palate, leaving a lasting aftertaste.
Uncle Xu laughed and refused: "Brother, this is a free tasting event, but it has costs. If you eat another piece, others will eat another piece too. Can we still carry on with this event?"
When the eldest brother heard this, his face was filled with disappointment.
The others behind him saw that someone had eaten it and knew it was not a lie, so they immediately became bolder.
"Give me one, too."
“I like to eat this duck feet.”
"I want to eat that duck wing."
"Is this pig intestine? Can it be delicious?"
"You won't know whether it tastes good until you try it. It's free anyway."
Soon, the stall was surrounded by people. Qiao Yuzhu and two people from the textile factory were dumbfounded as they held the clothes.
Uncle Xu was a little too busy at the moment, so he turned his head to look at the dazed man. Several people urged him, "What are you doing? Come and help."
Qiao Yuzhu was full of self-doubt: "Director Xu, aren't we here to do activities for the textile factory? Why are we helping the food factory now?
Aren’t we going to sell these clothes from our textile factory?”
By then, the textile factory’s products will be sold in the two buildings with just a few words.”
"Clothes are not like food. Food is not expensive. Everyone will try some. But your clothes cost tens of dollars. Who else around here can afford to buy a set?"
Qiao Yuzhu nodded, as if it made sense.
As the fried food is put into the wok, the surrounding is instantly filled with the aroma of oil and the overbearing fragrance of the fried food.
The area around the machinery factory was instantly filled with the fragrant aroma of meat, making people salivate.
Qiao Yuzhu and others soon started to help.
In order to show off in front of Zhou Yi, Qian Yuanyuan, in front of so many people, started the food tasting activity without caring about her dignity.
"What are all these people doing together? Aren't they going to work?" Wang Yongan is the director of the human resources department. He has been extremely worried these days.
This year, the old director of the machinery factory retired and a new director took office. Every year, the factory would only receive a batch of year-end bonus benefits after the Chinese New Year.
In previous years, we would buy some daily necessities, but this year the new factory manager wanted to do something new, saying that he wanted to change the benefits in the factory.
The employees in the factory had long been fed up with the factory's benefits, and they were all very happy when they heard about the benefits being changed.
But this made Wang Yongan very worried. He just happened to have a conflict with his wife these days, which made him even more worried.
Seeing so many people gathered at the factory gate, he went in and actually saw someone selling food at a stall at the factory gate.
Wang Yongan was immediately furious, pointing at Xu Ying and the others and sternly said, "What are you doing? What are you selling? You are engaging in speculation and profiteering and you will be arrested.
Hurry up and pack your things and go back to where you came from, or don’t blame me if you get caught.”
“Uncle, you misunderstood. We are employees of Yu County Food Factory. This time we are doing a food tasting event to understand how popular our products are among the general public.
These foods are free for everyone to try, no money required." Xu Ying explained with a smile.
Wang Yongan was full of doubt. So many things, free samples?
They have quite a few people in this city, especially in several large factories, each of which has several thousand employees.
If everyone were to taste the food, how much would it cost? "Uncle, would you like to try our new product? I guarantee you'll want more." Xu Ying said as she brought a small plate of freshly fried food sprinkled with cumin powder and chili powder.
The fragrance goes straight to the top of one's head, and the fragrance fills the air, leaving one with an endless aftertaste.
Wang Yongan, what a loser. He swallowed his saliva. This thing smelled so good.
Curiously, he picked up a small skewer beside the plate, fried a piece of crispy meat, took a bite, and immediately his eyes widened with disbelief on his face.
"Is this crispy pork? Why is it so delicious?"
Not only does it look good, but each piece of crispy meat is golden, plump and greasy.
Pick up one and take a bite. You can hear the crispy skin crackling sound, and the hot steam carries the aroma of the meat in your mouth, leaving a lingering fragrance.
It also has a light fragrance and spicy taste, which makes people linger in the aftertaste.
"Yes, our crispy pork is marinated. You just need to fry it in hot oil when you take it back. It is delicious and convenient." Xu Ying promoted it with all her might.
Wang Yongan frowned when he heard this: "Then you are still speculating."
But he really wanted to buy some, but there were so many people.
