While Lin Nuo was busy preparing for the opening of the new store tomorrow, Lancer took a space flight and arrived at the airport on Foka. As soon as he got off, he started the live broadcast. For this trip to the Desolate Star, Lancer spent a lot of money and rented the signal station of the global network at a high price, just to be able to give Master Tao a heavy blow from the strange angle of the thorn tomato.
Don’t doubt it, some loyal fans will do anything for their beliefs. Lancer would rather lose money, but also want to imprint in the minds of the public the unscrupulous image of “Master Tao will promote any product as long as they give enough money.”
There are no tourist attractions on the Desolate Planet. Even if there are, they are all just following the trend. Those who were worried about the economy and rushed to seek medical treatment imitated the popular projects on other planets. As a result, only locals will come to see them. From the outside, it didn’t attract any tour groups at all.
Lancer dismissed these, but considering that the signal station he rented started charging from the moment he got off the spacecraft, he still opened the live broadcast room, sat in the car, complained to the audience, and waited to the commercial street in the third district.
“Hello everyone, I’m Lancer, and I’m on my way to the ‘Super Delicious Tomato Stand’. Yes, yes, I rented the signal station of the global network, and what you see is the live broadcast from Foka. Well… the scenery is just like that, lackluster. The only thing better than Kawa Star is probably the traffic – look at this empty road, there will probably never be a traffic jam.”
The screen in the live broadcast room was filled with “Hahaha. ” “Haha” was flooding the screen, filled with the sense of superiority of the Kawa Star people. Even if their hometown is not as prosperous as the God City Star, such empty roads probably only appear late at night.
[It is strongly recommended that our company move to Foka Star to ensure that the roads are smooth during morning and evening rush hours. My mother no longer has to worry about me being late and deducting perfect attendance. ]
[Your company moved to this shabby place, are you afraid it will go bankrupt? ]
[That’s it, let alone relocation, even if you are asked to be temporarily transferred here for a few months, you wouldn’t be willing, right? ]
[What a desolate planet, as expected [beep——], I wouldn’t go there if it were me. ]
[Yes, yes, who is so reluctant to go there? Is it because there are too many holidays? ]
[Hey, speaking of holidays, our annual leave is going to be given up again this year. This is the interstellar era. How come there are still companies that don’t abide by labor laws? 】
【Resignation can be done. ]
[It’s easy to say, I have to support my family… I came to work overtime today. Actually, I don’t have anything to do. It’s a comfort to be able to fish and watch Lancer openly. 】
…
The trend of the topic that flooded the screen was a bit strange, and Lancer didn’t stop them. Anyway, he was still on the road, and he actually had nothing to say. It was better to let the audience entertain themselves, and he could guide them appropriately, just like at this time.
“It’s really not easy for everyone to make money, and so do I. I have to think of new topics every issue, and I have to travel light years to other planets, all to support my family – I can’t compare to Master Tao. He just sits at home and talks. The sponsorship fee is here, but how much pocket money did he have to give to that little girl to bite the bullet and eat such unpalatable food? ”
[Anchor, this is hard to say, what if the little girl has a strange taste?” ]
[Speaking of which, I also watched it that day. She ate it really deliciously, not like she was pretending. ]
[Yes, I happened to be watching it in the safety cabin and smelled it. It was pretty good. 】
【Guys upstairs, how much does Master Tao give you, come here and help him blow it – thorn tomatoes are recognized as unpalatable, who doesn’t know. ]
[I, I, I have the right to speak. When I was a child, my father’s job was transferred and I went to school for a year in Foka. Unfortunately, I caught up with the “Thorn Tomato Nutritious Lunch Plan”, which was simply terrible. I watched the live broadcast a while ago and had a nightmare. I dreamed of going back to school and eating that horrible thing. When my mother pushed me awake, she asked me why I was crying. ]
[Hahahahahaha! What a pitiful upstairs! ]
[I’m sorry, but I can’t help it, hahahahahaha! 】
【Should I follow the procedure or laugh directly? No, I laughed first. ]
[Facts speak louder than words. I’m even more curious about how much money Master Tao paid for that stall. ]
[Anchor, anchor, haven’t you arrived yet? 】
【Please speed up. ]
[Please come soon. ]
[I can’t wait any longer. There’s no one over there. Host, just ask the car to speed up. 】
Lancer saw that the public opinion was going in the direction he wanted. He was very happy in his heart, but did not show much on his face. He also explained to the audience: “It is already the highest speed. If the speed is increased, the smartphone will not process it. If I am forced to change to manual speeding, I will receive a ticket or be slapped with a gun – then I will not be able to live broadcast eating thorn tomatoes, and I will have to live broadcast crying behind bars.”
[Inexplicably, I feel that it is okay. 】
【You can +1. 】
【Can +2. ]
[HHHHH, are there all devils upstairs? Can +3. ]
[I think you are the devil, you can get +4. ]
…
Seeing the word [yes] on the barrage, Lancer looked like he didn’t know whether to laugh or cry, clasped his hands and shook his head at the audience: “Please, please, the air outside is very fresh, I don’t want to lose my freedom.”
There was a burst of laughter in the barrage, and everyone stopped joking about this. They all spoke to appease Lancer and gave him a wave of gifts.
During the interaction between the two parties, the car stopped steadily at the parking lot of the commercial street in the third district. The car door opened. As the audience in the live broadcast room “ouched”, Lancer took his equipment and got out of the car.
The address he found out was very detailed, and after asking a few passers-by along the way, he easily found the stall. Although Lin Nuo rejected District Mayor Lu and the others, this location was not closed. Instead, for the sake of face, the district leader himself sent staff to sell thorn tomatoes and tomato juice when no one was renting it. is the promise of “normal business”.
However, the business seems not to be very good. Not to mention the long queues, there are no people in front of the stalls. To say that there are only a few people around is to praise them. In comparison, “everyone is gone” is more in line with the current situation.
“Wow, have you noticed that there are no customers here at all?”
Lancer turned on the optical camera to panoramic mode, taking in all the lively scenes around the stalls, as well as the scene where there were no humans or insects within five meters of the stalls. .
“According to my information, this should be a prime stall spot. With business so bleak, can they really afford the stall fee?”
[You’re laughing so hard, host, go buy one now. ]
[That’s it, no one is better, no need to queue. ]
[Do you want to mention that you called the interstellar emergency number? Don’t get upset. ]
[The spaceship takes a walk~~ Give the anchor some courage! ]
[Let’s go, let’s get a satellite space station! 】
【I can only use interstellar missiles, don’t dislike it. 】
Lancer waited for this wave of rewards to pass, smiled and thanked the audience, then walked towards the stall, knocked on the window of the stall, and woke up the clerk who was dozing off from boredom.
“Hello, give me a thorn tomato.”
Lancer was polite, but I don’t know if it was his imagination. He always felt that a look of “Where did this idiot come from” flashed across the clerk’s face just now.
…Maybe it’s an illusion, he is a rare guest.
“It’s 300 Star Coins each. Are you taking it away or eating it now?”
The clerk quickly put on a business smile. He had been forced to come here to look at the stall for how many days. It was fine in the first few days. Some people who didn’t know the situation came to buy. After the news spread, no one was fooled anymore. Who would have thought that another one would come today? He didn’t know if it was because the news was delayed or because there was something wrong with his brain.
Speaking of which, the biggest problem in his mind must be District Chief Lu. He found a purifier from nowhere and the toxins were treated cleanly, but the smell was unspeakable and reminded him of the nightmare of nutritious lunches at school.
——Could it be that this person purified it back then?
What a crime.
“It’s so expensive.” Lancer sighed as he took out the money, and asked a question that struck a chord with his soul. “As far as I know, thorn tomatoes are a specialty here. They can be found all over the mountains and plains. Why are they so expensive?”
The clerk thought in his mind. Rolling his eyes, the villain yelled, “Of course the district chief has something wrong with his brain,” but the smile on his face remained unchanged. He used a friendly tone to explain Lancer’s doubts: “This is specially purified by our specially hired purifier. It is non-toxic.and edible. The ingredient list is over there. Please check if there are any allergens. Those in the wild outside can be viewed, but do not eat them. ”
Lancer already knew this, and the question just now was also directed to the live broadcast room. The audience listened. After he took the beautifully packaged thorn tomato from the clerk’s hand, he left there. He walked to a distance where the stall could be seen but what he said could not be heard, and he stopped.
“The packaging looks pretty nice, but the most important thing is the taste. I’m going to open it now – well, it’s quite laborious… Ah, well, there’s nothing to say about the appearance. They all look the same. Now I want to Let’s eat—”
As he spoke, he adjusted the camera, and Lancer brought the thorn tomato to his mouth, and with a generous and righteous expression, he opened his mouth and bit it.
“…Bah, bah, bah, bah!”
The moment he bit it, a bitter and numb feeling instantly killed his taste buds. Even if he spit it out immediately, Lancer felt extremely uncomfortable and hated himself for not being prepared enough water to rinse his mouth.
The barrage in the live broadcast room has flooded the screen. Most of them are “Hahahahahaha”. There are also a few who feel sorry for Lancer and give him gifts. In short, it is a joyous scene with many people shouting. Friends were invited into the live broadcast room, which added a lot of popularity to Lancer.
It was unpalatable, but the goal was achieved. Seeing the number of people in his live broadcast room rising steadily, Lancer was secretly happy, but he had to look distressed on his face.
“Everyone has seen it. I promise to be honest. My tongue is still uncomfortable. I don’t know how the little girl from Master Tao’s family did it. She was able to eat two of them in one go without changing her expression. I really admire that little girl. I can’t do it anyway, I really can’t do it.”
Lancer didn’t plan to eat it again, but he didn’t throw it away. He just held up the thorn tomato and said to the camera: “You guys saw it, this place. The owner of the store is so evil. A thorn tomato with such an unpalatable taste is sold for 300 Star Coins. Isn’t it too much? I’ll do the math. How much more delicious food can I get for 300 Star Coins in our Kawa Star? This Meal Replacement Food is a hundred times more powerful…”
“Sorry to disturb you, are you eating thorn tomatoes during the live broadcast?”
A passerby’s voice interrupted Lancer’s continuous attack on the evil intentions of this store and Master Tao’s evil intentions. The rhythm of money entered the live broadcast room.
Lancer stopped speaking. Although he was dissatisfied in his heart, he still maintained a polite smile on his face: “Yes, I am Lancer, a small anchor in Kawa Star. What can I do for you?”
The passerby pointed. The thorn tomatoes in his hand: “I just want to tell you that you bought the wrong thing. The really delicious thorn tomatoes are sold in the commercial street of District 1. They just reopen today. If you hurry up and go there, maybe you can you can buy it.”
Before Lancer could answer, the passerby glanced at a string of [? ? ? ? 】The barrage continued: “By the way, a really delicious thorn tomato costs 500 Star Coins each, so it won’t be sold for 300 so cheaply. You have been fooled.”
After finishing the matter, he walked away and not revealing his name, leaving Lancer, who was holding the fake thorn tomato, to live broadcast alone, looking confused and helpless.
The passers-by who had walked far away looked back and clicked their tongues, feeling that the other person was a little pitiful. At first glance, he looked like a young man and did not understand the importance of being well-informed.
After looking at the two products in his hands that were filled with “delicacies from the ancient earth” and thinking about the long queue in the store when he left, passers-by suddenly felt satisfied.
Sure enough, without contrast, the feeling of happiness would not be so strong.
