The moment the blogger started broadcasting, thousands of people flooded into the live stream.
The blogger was excited. He only had 100,000 followers across the entire internet. The video he casually posted this morning had the most likes since he entered the industry. Usually, his live streams of visiting stores only had a maximum of 1,000 viewers. Now, just a few minutes after starting the broadcast, so many viewers had already come.
Seeing this, the blogger became even more determined to make the live stream a success.
The video blogger opened the glass door of the funeral parlor and saw many white paper-cut sails hanging from the ceiling, as well as a dozen exquisite paper houses and various paper offerings on the left and right sides.
Further inside is the counter, behind which is a wall full of firecrackers and fireworks, with prices clearly marked.
What's shocking is that in this bustling commercial street, prices can easily reach thousands or even tens of thousands of yuan, but the prices at this shop are very reasonable, about the same as those outside.
As soon as the blogger entered, a shop assistant wearing a blue long shirt came over.
The shop assistant looked rather young and seemed quite nervous. Upon seeing the blogger, she immediately bent down and gestured for the blogger to feel free to look around.
However, the blogger quickly noticed the difference and asked, "Can't you speak?"
When the blogger spoke, the shop assistant made a series of incoherent sounds, which were difficult to understand.
Seeing this, the young shop assistant pointed to his ear.
Now the blogger understood: the young shop assistant was deaf, so he couldn't speak.
If it can produce sound, then at least the vocal cords are not damaged.
Seeing this, the blogger was momentarily at a loss for words.
Are you here to buy something?
Just when the blogger was in trouble, a master craftsman in his fifties suddenly came over, his eyes shining: "What exactly do you need? We can recommend something to you."
Blogger: "I..."
He wanted to say that he wouldn't buy anything, but he felt bad because he gained traffic by stepping on other people's shops.
But when it comes to buying things, it seems like nothing is a good choice.
The blogger's eyes lit up, and his gaze fell on the fireworks on the wall. He pointed to the mid-priced ones and said, "I'll buy fireworks."
Although the young shop assistant couldn't hear, she could understand hand gestures. After confirming what the blogger wanted to buy, she quickly packed it up and even offered to deliver the fireworks to the blogger's car.
Seeing this, the blogger asked the old chef, "Who's the boss here? I'm actually a restaurant review blogger, and right now... I'm live streaming."
Sure enough, the old master craftsman was somewhat surprised.
The blogger thought the other party would be angry, after all, it was impolite for them to come without asking for clicks, and he was prepared to be kicked out, but who knew that the old man's eyes suddenly lit up.
"Our boss just got home. She predicted that someone would come to check out the store today, and as long as they are polite, we must treat them well!"
The experienced chef personally brought the blogger a glass of water: "What do you think of our shop? If you like it, please be sure to promote us. We accept all kinds of business."
Blogger: ...
This was the first time he had encountered such a warm and straightforward shop.
The blogger took a sip of water to calm himself down, glanced at the rapidly rising number of followers that was about to break 50,000, and asked, "What kind of services do you mainly provide? Could you tell me about them?"
"We handle everything from weddings and funerals to fortune telling and feng shui consultations!" the old craftsman said, then changed the subject: "However, the shop assistants mainly make paper offerings and coffins; our boss does the fortune telling and feng shui consultations himself."
The blogger looked around and found that in addition to the receptionist, there were two experienced chefs and seven or eight other staff members, both men and women. They had been quiet since the blogger entered and had not said a word.
This is not normal!
Blogger: "Are all these employees disabled?"
"They are all disabled people. Our boss is a good person. These children cannot adapt to society because of their physical disabilities. Our boss specifically recruits people like them. He not only pays them 8,000 yuan a month, but also provides food, accommodation, and various bonuses. Our boss is a really good person!"
The blogger was somewhat shocked.
He glanced at the comments and found them to be polarized.
Some people think that a salary of 8,000 yuan is too little in City A, but others think that the owner of the funeral shop deserves to be enshrined in the Imperial Ancestral Temple.
[Seriously? An 8,000 yuan salary is expected to make people grateful? I think this boss is just treating disabled people like animals.]
[Eight thousand yuan is simply not enough to survive in City A!]
[This is getting more and more ridiculous. They're even doing fortune telling and feng shui! I really want to hug them tightly. And did you guys see the price of the paper offerings? Paper that costs tens of yuan to make is being sold for thousands! This is a shady shop. I've reported it, and they'll be shut down soon.]
[The person upstairs is out of their mind. Eight thousand yuan is considered an upper-middle-class salary even in a new first-tier city. Even if City A is incredibly prosperous, aren't there poor people there? Eight thousand yuan isn't enough to eat takeout and go to bars every day. That amount of money won't give you a luxurious lifestyle, but it's a huge sum for a disabled person who can't integrate into society at all, understand?]
Those who say the boss is heartless truly prove the saying, "Behind the red gates, meat and wine go to waste, while on the streets, frozen corpses lie."
[The boss provides room and board and a salary of 8,000 yuan, with no KPIs, and these apprentices are clearly inexperienced. The boss isn't being heartless at all; he's practically doing charity.]
[What kind of unscrupulous boss would hire an inexperienced apprentice with no social skills?]
[Paper craftsmanship relies on skill, so the cost is naturally low. But can everyone do it? If these things were works of art in the mortal world, would you consider over a thousand yuan expensive?]
[If only we had such conscientious bosses here. My son lost both legs in an accident when he was young and is now in a wheelchair. He can't even enter society. I've decided that when I die, I'll take my child with me.]
As the blogger read these comments, tears welled up in his eyes and his nose tingled. He spoke fairly to the camera: "The items here are not expensive. Although I don't know much about these things, their handmade items are indeed exquisite, and the prices are very reasonable. I would personally recommend them if anyone needs them in the future."
The blogger had the experienced craftsman take him around before turning off the live stream.
The blogger then edited the restaurant review video together. Because of the unique style of the review, the blogger became popular, and Wenli's restaurant also became popular.
