"Even so, many people still go to eat there."
Billy sighed, "I went this morning and waited in line for an hour before I could get a bite."
"Brother Han, to be honest, I really didn't taste any additives. Maybe I'm just not very observant."
"Most people definitely wouldn't be able to tell the difference, and only gourmets would immediately sense something was wrong. But these dumplings aren't in any culinary competitions, so for the average person's palate, they're already a feast."
"Brother Han, I feel like if they keep doing this, the steamed buns in our freezer will all expire."
"It's not that they're expired, since there are quite a lot of people buying hot buns. If they can't be sold in the freezer, we can steam them out on the spot and sell them. But sales will definitely drop significantly, not as good as before," Henry said worriedly.
Anthony didn't participate in their heated discussion. For him, whether the steamed bun business was good or bad didn't matter much, since he had plenty of money to spend anyway.
Because the old man took back his illegitimate son, he didn't object and even pretended to secretly shed a few crocodile tears. The old man actually gave him 30 million gold coins and told him to have fun.
Those two illegitimate children were actually older than him, which made him very upset; he had to call them "brother."
However, because the two women had different mothers, they didn't get along. Instead, the two women treated the son of the legal wife very well, almost as if they were trying to win him over. They would always give him gifts, such as yachts or sports cars.
Anthony never intended to fight them, so he accepted everything without hesitation. The two had been feuding fiercely recently and both wanted his support. He said he supported them both and that they were like good brothers to him, so he received many more gifts.
Anthony believes that a life of leisure is the path he should take, and he should stay away from all the trouble and controversy!
Little Six walked up to Anthony at some point and whispered, "Grandpa Anthony, shall we go buy some stones now?"
Anthony's eyes lit up, and he secretly glanced at Han Fei and the others. Seeing that they were discussing the development of new products and were not paying attention to him and Xiao Liu, he immediately nodded: "Let's go, let's go now!"
The two tiptoed toward the door, and just as they were about to cross the threshold, a pair of small red shoes appeared before them.
Following the red shoes, they saw a beautifully sculpted little girl smiling sweetly at them, her dimples sinking in, radiating sweetness!
But now Anthony and Xiao Liu couldn't feel her sweetness. They both hurriedly reached out to cover her mouth, but it was too late. The little girl's childish voice rang out: "Sixth Brother, Anthony Grandpa, where are we going to play? Take Xiao Qi with you!"
Five pairs of eyes glared at them simultaneously.
Anthony and the sixth brother both felt a chill run down their spines, straightened up, and dared not move.
"Xiao Liu, come here." Han Fei said in a deep voice.
Little Six lowered his head and moved over little by little, standing next to Han Fei.
Henry raised his voice: "Anthony, this is child abduction! Do you know what you'll face if you take Little Six out and don't bring him back safely?"
Anthony said guiltily, "I...I wouldn't lose the child."
"Heh, you've forgotten, haven't you?" Bill stomped over angrily and stepped on Anthony's instep.
Anthony didn't dare pull his foot back, letting Bill berate him: "We went to China for tourism, and I just needed to pee, so I asked you to watch my little cousin for me. You went to see people doing sugar painting, and my little cousin ran away without you even noticing! If it weren't for the fact that my little cousin is a foreigner and stands out among the Chinese, do you think I would have found her? She might have been lost long ago!!!"
Anthony felt even more guilty: "She wanted to buy sugar paintings. I didn't expect her to lose interest and leave after looking at them for a while. I thought she was looking at them very seriously, just like me."
"Heh, don't make excuses for yourself, you're just thinking about having fun by yourself!"
Bill looked at Six and Seven and instructed them, "Little ones, don't go out with Anthony, no matter who you go out to play with. If you go out, you might not come back! Our country has seen a surge in missing persons recently, most of whom are children. Although the country has taken this seriously, you are foreigners. If you really get lost here, it will be very difficult to handle. Do you understand?"
Little Qi nodded cutely, "Little Qi remembers! If I don't play with Grandpa Anthony, he'll lose me, and I won't be able to see Grandpa anymore, and I won't be able to eat Grandpa's pork rib rice cakes! Little Qi loves pork rib rice cakes the most!"
Five pairs of eyes stared at Han Fei.
Henry coughed lightly: "Brother Han, may I ask what 'ribs and rice cakes' is?"
Anthony: "You really were hiding some good food!"
Billy: "Brother Han, you said you didn't have any signature dishes anymore. You lied to me, and it hurts my heart!"
Bill: "Brother Han, I can't forgive you unless you make me pork ribs and rice cakes."
Aaron: "Brother Han, hurry up and get to work! We don't need to develop any new products, just use this pork rib rice cake!"
"Oh, right, I just remembered something. I came here today to ask you if you need a spokesperson?" Anthony unwrapped a lollipop. "I know a celebrity who said he really likes our steamed buns and wants to be the spokesperson for our chain of steamed bun shops."
"A spokesperson for a steamed bun shop? Who?"
"Oh, that Oscar-winning actress."
"What! She's actually going to be a spokesperson for steamed buns? No way, isn't she afraid of losing face?" Billy exclaimed incredulously.
Henry frowned, clearly disagreeing.
Anthony asked in confusion, "She doesn't ask for much, just some steamed buns every month. You're not satisfied?"
Henry rejected the idea: "It must be the people of the Dragon Kingdom who speak."
Upon hearing this, Han Fei was quite surprised: "I thought you would agree, since it's free."
Henry shook his head: "Actually, I have also looked into the spokesperson issue, but I haven't been able to find a suitable person, so it has been shelved. Although this female celebrity is a household name in our country and is very famous, I hope that the steamed buns from China will be endorsed by a person from China who is a household name in our country."
Aaron, Bill, and Bill all supported Henry, while Anthony didn't really care. It was a female star who wanted the opportunity, and since they were acquaintances, he just asked her. If they disagreed, so be it. He was a laid-back person by nature and didn't bother to insist.
Therefore, Henry took the matter of finding a spokesperson seriously. The spokesperson had to be from China, be a household name abroad, be affordable, and be willing to sign a long-term endorsement deal. This was very challenging.
Just when we were having a problem, pork rib rice cakes were available in 100 steamed bun shops!
The aroma is absolutely irresistible! The rice cakes are fragrant, chewy, and bouncy! This has attracted many customers to the store!
"It smells so good, what is it that smells so good?"
"It looks like the steamed bun shop up ahead has launched a new product!"
Pan-fried dumplings? Potstickers?
"No, it's a new product, called Pork Rib Rice Cake!"
"Pork ribs with rice cakes? Is it delicious?"
"We don't know yet, let's go check!"
Customers were drawn by the aroma and arrived at the door to find a long queue already formed.
