Chapter 25: Tasting Event Leads to Huge Sales!



"Hey bro, gotta come here!"

Just as this young man in bell-bottoms carrying a tape recorder was about to leave...

Lin Sen rushed out of the crowd and stopped the young man in bell-bottoms.

They dragged him directly into a corner.

What are you doing?

The young man in bell-bottoms looked at Lin Sen with a suspicious expression.

"Brother, may I ask your name?"

Lin Sen smiled and offered a cigarette to the young man in bell-bottoms.

"Feng Zhiqiang".

Feng Zhiqiang, a young man in bell-bottoms who initially didn't want to pay attention to Lin Sen, was surprised when Lin Sen offered him a cigarette—a relatively expensive Hongmei brand with a filter.

In the end, he chose to take the cigarette and took a deep, blissful drag.

"Oh, it's Brother Feng."

Lin Sen laughed upon hearing this, "Your tape recorder is quite good."

"Of course not."

Feng Zhiqiang immediately started singing, shaking his head and swaying his lips: "Sweet, sweet, your smile is as sweet as flowers blooming in the spring breeze."

"Great, it sounds wonderful!"

Lin Sen gave Feng Zhiqiang a thumbs up: "Brother Feng, haven't had lunch yet?"

"Want to try some?"

As he spoke, Lin Sen pointed to the spicy crayfish, spicy small crabs, and fried small yellow croaker on his stall.

"Are you crazy?"

"Do you think I'm stupid?"

Upon hearing Lin Sen's words, Feng Zhiqiang immediately sneered and took three steps back: "These are just small shrimp that you can find anywhere, and you're selling them for one yuan and fifty cents a pound?"

Only a fool would buy that!

"Don't try to get close to me, I won't buy it no matter what you say!"

After mocking Lin Sen, Feng Zhiqiang walked away.

"Brother Feng, I didn't tell you to buy it."

Lin Sen smiled again and stopped Feng Zhiqiang: "I know you don't have money and can't afford it."

What do you mean by this!?

Seeing how 'good at talking' Lin Sen was, Feng Zhiqiang immediately became furious.

"Haha, it's not interesting."

"Brother Feng, you don't need to overthink it."

Lin Sen smiled and shrugged slightly. He knew that the bell-bottom men of the 1980s, the non-mainstream men of the 2000s, and the "spirited young men" and "spirited young women" of the 2020s were all the same.

They are a group of people who are penniless.

So they asked Feng Zhiqiang to spend 1.5 yuan to buy a pound of spicy crayfish.

That's really too much to ask of him.

"Brother Feng, I'd like to invite you to be a taste tester."

Lin Sen pointed to his stall.

"A taste tester?"

"What's the meaning?"

Feng Zhiqiang looked completely bewildered and scratched his head.

He looked at Lin Sen with great suspicion.

"It's very simple, it's just all the food from my stall."

"Spicy crayfish, spicy baby crabs, and fried yellow croaker."

"Add steamed buns and pickled vegetables as well."

"You can eat whatever you want, I won't charge you a penny!"

Lin Sen stared intently at Feng Zhiqiang: "If you perform well, I can even give you five or ten yuan as payment for your tasting today!"

"What?"

Are you sure!?

Upon hearing Lin Sen's words, Feng Zhiqiang's eyes immediately turned red. He looked at Lin Sen with great astonishment and excitement.

They were completely terrified by Lin Sen.

He never expected that such a good thing would fall into his lap out of nowhere.

Not only can you eat and drink for free, you can even get paid.

This is so awesome!

Do I look like I'm trying to fool you?

Lin Sen shrugged slightly and smiled, "If you'd like, you can pretend to be a customer later, go to the stall and ask about the prices, then say you'd like one pound each of spicy crayfish, spicy baby crabs, and fried baby butter."

"Pair it with two bottles of beer and three steamed buns."

"Then you'll sit under the osmanthus tree and eat your fill in front of everyone!"

Lin Sen looked intently at Feng Zhiqiang: "My only requirement for you is that you eat more and eat with gusto."

"To attract more people to eat and ask questions."

"The more successful you are, the better."

"And I'll reward you even more!"

Lin Sen grinned and asked, "So? Can you handle spicy food? Can you drink alcohol?"

"Dare you sit down and give it a try!?"

"Holy crap, what's there to be afraid of?"

"Don't worry, I'm in great health, I can eat and drink a lot!"

As soon as Lin Sen finished asking the question, Feng Zhiqiang immediately patted his chest and confidently replied, "This little thing is none of my business."

"good."

"Then I'll see how you perform."

Lin Sen patted Feng Zhiqiang on the shoulder and then walked back to his stall.

"Dad, Brother Da Niu."

"When that young man in bell-bottoms carrying the tape recorder comes over, serve him a plate of spicy crayfish, a plate of spicy baby crabs, and a plate of fried yellow croaker."

"Then two bottles of beer, a plate of pickled vegetables, and three steamed buns."

"Remember, no money required."

Lin Sen looked at Lin Jianguo and Zhang Daniu: "Let him eat as much as he can today!"

"ah?"

"Xiaosen, it's fine if he eats the shrimp, crabs, and yellow croakers, since they were caught in the ditch and didn't cost him anything. But we paid for the beer, steamed buns, and pickled vegetables ourselves."

"We can't let him get away with this for free!"

Looking at the large, white steamed buns, Lin Jianguo felt a pang of heartache.

Having experienced hunger and cold in his youth, he had long been accustomed to frugality.

"Dad, don't worry."

"He won't eat for nothing; he's our taste tester."

Lin Sen smiled knowingly and shrugged slightly: "The more he eats, the more delicious it is, the faster we'll sell and the more money we'll make today!"
