Punch: From third-rate anchor to top chef

Chapter 384. 385. Yangcheng, Shangxiajiu Pedestrian Street

Looking at the text message, Li Xiao hesitated for a few seconds, his thoughts frantically swinging between whether to go or not to go.

But a few seconds later, he shook his head and entered He Ruochu's number on the phone.

The waiting ring on the phone only rang for two seconds before the other party picked up the phone.

"Hello, hello, I'm Li Xiao, I just received your message."

"Hello, Mr. Li Xiao, I indeed asked the people below to send out the invitation."

"This public service announcement, although it will only be promoted at the entrance and exit of the subway station."

"But the effect it can achieve is quite good. Let's see when you have time to come and take a picture?"

"It doesn't take much time, about three or four hours, it is completely enough."

Although this Ms. Ruochu spoke very low-key and humble, but Li Xiao understood that things were not as simple as the other party said.

The flow of people at the entrances and exits of the subway should not be underestimated. If you change someone, you probably have already made an appointment with the other party.

But before Li Xiao made the call, he had a plan in mind.

So he was not attracted by the advertisements at the subway entrances and exits.

"Thank you very much for Ms. He's kindness. It's like this. I'm afraid I will refuse your kindness."

"It was a coincidence that I saved Ms. He's child."

"You have given a large sum of money just now, and it is completely sufficient as a reward."

"This public welfare promotion, forget it."

"This"

He Ruochu held the phone with a look of surprise.

Originally, she thought that the reason why Li Xiao rejected the tens of thousands of dollars was because the other party's income was very high, so she didn't care about the tens of thousands of dollars at all.

That's why she immediately changed her way of thanking her.

In her opinion, for an Internet celebrity anchor living in the traffic era, enough traffic is a huge asset for them, and no Internet celebrity can resist this temptation.

Of course, when she was at Liyuan Restaurant, she really just said casually on the scene.

However, after going back, she asked someone to check Li Xiao's information.

After a thorough inquiry, she found that the other party was actually a positive energy Internet celebrity who had done countless good people and good deeds.

This time, she moved her mind.

The other party rescued his own son, and he repayed his kindness and gave the other party a fortune.

Such a thing will definitely become a good story in the industry.

However, she didn't expect the other party to refuse.

"Okay, if, you change your mind, call me again."

"Okay, thank you again for your kindness, Ms. He, goodbye."

"Goodbye."

Li Xiao hung up the phone and let out a long breath.

It's not that he doesn't want to be famous, but that he is worried about owed favors.

Although the other party said that he was repaying his kindness, the return was really too great.

Moreover, according to what the other party said at that time, the other party's husband had already passed away.

You can't have too much involvement with the other party.

Turn off your phone and forget about these messy problems.

After a night of nothing, Li Xiao got up early the next day.

As soon as the live broadcast started, he began to give out benefits.

"I'm very happy to meet you again. Wow, there are so many of you this early in the morning. The anchor is really touched."

"The current number of people online is 34, so the benefits this morning are"

He deliberately dragged on a long tone to attract everyone's attention.

"All viewers who are located in Yangcheng can participate, and 34 lucky viewers will be drawn here."

"You can have morning tea with me. Today we are going to a very famous dim sum restaurant [Tao Tao Ju]!"

"I will not only invite everyone to eat as much as they like, but I will reimburse the travel expenses for the round trip!"

"It's 8:9 in the morning, and our assembly time will be at [-]:[-] in the morning."

"The venue is Shangxiajiu [Tao Taoju], now the lucky draw begins!"

Li Xiao was talking just now while operating in the background, when he finished speaking.

A lottery drawing interface with positioning requirements appeared in the live broadcast interface of all viewers located in Yangcheng in real time.

There was an instant wailing in the live broadcast room.

"Anchor, I'm in Shenzhen, I'll definitely be there within an hour!"

"The chance for a free meal is mine!"

"Why, why can't I draw a lottery!"

"Anchor, I'm your big fan! You can't do this to me!"

"Although, it may not be possible to draw me, but I must go!"

"I love it, I love it, the anchor is too kind, so many benefits."

·····
The lottery draw ended soon, and the list of 34 immediately appeared on the lottery interface.

"Okay, congratulations, the old fairy of South China, the swordsman, death is always with my heart and 34 lucky viewers, please arrive on time at 9 o'clock."

"I will get the number in advance at the door, everyone remember to come on time!"

While chatting with the audience, Li Xiao left the hotel.

This five-star hotel is not far from Shangxiajiu where Taotaoju is located, and can be reached by walking.

After walking for about half an hour, Li Xiao came to Tao Taoju.

The queuing mechanism here is also advancing with the times, as long as you scan the code to get the number.

When there are still a few digits away from your number, he will send a text message to remind you.

Looking at the several lists in his hand, they were all big tables.

For the earliest one, there are still 6 numbers in front of it, and the estimated time is 40 minutes.

It's been a long time, but it can't be helped, it's Saturday after all.

Many parents who don't have to go to work are willing to take the whole family out for morning tea on weekends.

Fortunately, Li Xiao got up relatively early, if it was half an hour later.

The queuing time is not 40 minutes, but two or three hours.

It seems that there is still plenty of time, so waiting at the door is not a problem.

Li Xiao turned and went downstairs, walking towards Shangxiajiu Pedestrian Street.

"Shangxiajiu Pedestrian Street is one of the three most traditional business districts in Yangcheng."

"The total length is more than 1000 meters, and there are more than 500 shops in total."

"Shangxiajiu Pedestrian Street, the earliest records can be traced back to the Song Dynasty."

"During the Song Dynasty, this street was already quite developed, and a large number of merchants gathered here to conduct trade."

At this time, Li Xiao happened to see a small shop with an entrance only half a meter away, and Li Xiao pointed the camera at this shop.

"Due to the long history here and the huge flow of people, the rent here is also quite high."

Li Xiao took the camera and walked in front of the small bunk. There were a variety of fruits on the small bunk, which looked really beautiful under the light.

He walked to the front of this shop selling freshly cut fruits, and asked politely:

"Hello, boss, we are doing a live broadcast here, and I would like to ask how much is the monthly rent for your shop here?"

The boss is a skinny middle-aged man. He glanced at it, and Li Xiao looked like a very professional camera equipment in his hands.

With a smile on his face he said:

"One month's rent is not counted as a month on our side. We pay every two years on our side."

He stretched out two fingers and continued to introduce:
"For my small bunk, the rent for two years is 2 yuan, and it will be paid in one lump sum."

"When it expires in two years, a new contract must be signed."

"However, I've already done a good job here. Those bigger shops are signed once a year."

·····
The corner of Li Xiao's mouth twitched. He had checked that the rent in Shangxiajiu Pedestrian Street was very expensive, but he didn't expect it to be so ridiculously expensive.

Converting the 50 yuan, the monthly rent would be more than 2 yuan.

Although he is very rich now, he will never spend 2 yuan a month to rent a bunk that is only a little more than one square meter.

After listening to the boss's introduction, Li Xiao quietly took back the steps that he had already taken.

Although this freshly cut fruit costs 100 yuan for 8 grams, it is a little expensive, but after hearing the other party's shop rent.

On the contrary, Li Xiao felt that the fruit was sold too cheaply.
