Chi Tang's words made Old Man Chi stop. He was old, and chasing after someone was really exhausting.
Aunt Chi came over to wipe her daughter's sweat and asked, "What can you do?"
“If San Dede likes to eat, then let him be a taste tester,” Chi Tang said, shaking her head.
Taste testers.
He eats and drinks every day, then publishes a review. Once he gains popularity, restaurants and food stalls will naturally pay him to eat.
The whole family gathered around.
"A taste tester? What's that?"
"Tangtang, please explain it more clearly."
Among them, the three rivers and several ponds are the most eager.
It sounds like being a food taster is something he enjoys doing.
Chi Tang entered the house, turned on the fan, and drank half a bowl of plum juice before explaining to everyone.
"For example, there are many restaurants in the capital. The same famous dish may be available in many restaurants, but if you want to eat this dish, which restaurant should you go to?"
A food taster is someone who goes to different restaurants to taste different dishes and then writes a review.
At first, you had to pay for the food yourself, and after you finished writing it, you had to print and distribute it yourself.
Once you gradually gain fame, restaurants and snack shops will naturally approach you for collaborations. They'll pay you to eat at their places for free, write a review, and have it printed on your tasting slip to promote them.
If you're going to do this, you'll likely have to keep investing money upfront with little to no return.
Moreover, Chi Tang is not sure if he can definitely make money.
While this might be a hobby for modern food bloggers, in ancient times, promotional methods were so rudimentary, and the general public might not have been willing to pay for it.
Therefore, Chi Tang was not sure.
"Oh, this is great, this is great, I'm good at this."
Chi Sanhe was overjoyed when he heard this.
Eat and drink every day, then write down where the best food is, print it out, and give it to everyone.
He understands!
This is a good job!
"Can this make money?"
Although Old Man Chi liked his daughter and thought her ideas were always good, this time...
Why does this sound so unreliable?
"It should be possible."
Chi Tang said softly, her tone not entirely certain.
After all, the overall environment is different, so she can't be sure.
Chi Sanhe immediately begged his parents, "Just let me try. If it doesn't work, I'll obediently follow your arrangements."
If he can't make money from something like this, then there's no point in him struggling.
I should just obediently follow my parents' arrangements.
"...But you won't make any money doing it this way."
"Dad, let San Dede give it a try. If it doesn't work out, San Dede will feel at ease." Chi Tang spoke up for Chi Sanhe.
Everyone has a different path.
You need to think clearly about what you want to do and what you don't want to do.
It was rare for Chi Sanhe to be willing to try, and Chi Tang didn't want to disappoint her third brother.
Old Man Chi is a doting father to his daughter. Although he thought it was unreliable, he agreed because his daughter said so.
"One year. I'll let you do whatever you want for a year. If it doesn't work out, you'll have to come back and farm, get married, understand?"
Turning his head to face his son, Old Man Chi wore a bitter expression once again.
The sons are all here to collect debts!
Where can you find a daughter who's popular?
Chi Sanhe nodded hurriedly, repeatedly assuring everyone that this was the last time.
Then the two brothers went to discuss it.
"Little sister, could you tell your third brother what happened again?"
Chi Sanhe was genuinely interested.
Chi Tang gave him some advice:
"It probably won't work here. Sande, you'd better go to the capital. Find two restaurants that aren't particularly famous, but have some specialties, and go and have a good taste of their dishes."
Ideally, you should have your second brother or someone with good writing skills write a review article for you. It should be unique and engaging. Then print it out and have people distribute it on the street.
Chi Sanhe understood: "But isn't this just helping them attract customers for free? How will I make money then?"
"As more people go, the other party will naturally investigate what happened and will soon find out about you. It's normal to not have money at first. You'd better taste more, write more articles, and publish more, preferably one copy every day."
Another important point is to be truthful! Don't let your own subjective feelings get in the way. Once a restaurant comes to you, you can start collecting payment.
For example, you can get a discount of five or ten coins at a restaurant by showing them your review article, and then the restaurant will give you a certain percentage of the commission...
However, these are all things for the future; in the early stages, you'll probably just be wasting your money.
"Well, it would be best if you discussed it with the restaurant staff beforehand, offering to pay a few coins for meals if you bring your printed articles. This would make it easier to attract customers. It's a win-win situation, and they shouldn't refuse."
These are all modern marketing techniques.
Chi Sanhe only vaguely understood what he was hearing and needed to digest it properly.
Chi Tang suddenly remembered Young Master Meng and immediately suggested, "Young Master Meng owns a restaurant. He should be looking to cooperate with Fourth Brother in a couple of days. You can talk to him and that will be a good start."
It's much easier than going to the capital and stumbling around aimlessly.
Chi Sanhe would naturally be more than happy to take a shortcut.
"Then I'll go and think about it carefully first, and I'll come back to ask you if I don't understand, Tangtang."
Okay.
Chi Tang thought she had made herself clear enough, but who knew that for the next three days, her third brother would follow her around, asking her to explain again or if she had any other fresh ideas.
His eagerness to learn was gratifying to the rest of the Chi family.
