My fruit shop became popular in the world
Chapter 56
For a long time, Xianxiang Fruit has shown people with a positive image. Even if there was a scandal in Tianhai City before, it was quickly dismissed by the crisis public relations, and it did not have much impact on its word-of-mouth image.
This time, however, the nature of the incident was different.
According to the police report, Xianxiang Fruit has been secretly researching various new varieties of fruits for many years.
This is actually nothing, but the problem is that, after testing, most of the fruits will have adverse effects on the human body after eating, and even threaten life safety.
Food is the most important thing for the people, and food safety has always been an important topic of concern to the people.This incident triggered a crisis of confidence about fruit safety, and domestic fruit merchants have been questioned.
The reason why Xuanchu came back quickly was because he learned of the current difficulties faced by his own fruit shop and came back to deal with the matter.
After a long period of operation, the popularity of Miracle Fruit Store is increasing day by day, especially on the Internet. The store's reputation among young people is not much lower than that of Xianxiang Fruit.
Since the two stores are often mentioned together, it is inevitable that Miracle Fruit will be questioned this time.
You know, the purchase channel of Wonderful Fruit Store has always been a mystery.
Why are the fruits sold by his family exceptionally good, impeccable in quality, taste and efficacy?
Questions like this have been discussed many times on the Internet, and some netizens have tried to dig deeper into this matter, but they have found nothing.
Until the accident happened to Xianxiang Fruit, netizens were inspired and started conspiracy theories: Could it be that there is something wrong with the fruit sold by this wonderful fruit?
The doubts grew louder and louder, and because Xuanchu could not be contacted, the shop assistants did not dare to make their own opinions, so they did not respond to this matter.
The first thing Xuanchu did after he came back was to call an emergency meeting of all the shop staff to discuss how to get through the immediate crisis.
"Make an announcement." Zhang Chao suggested.
"But it may not be useful. Now that netizens are so sophisticated, they are only willing to buy the official account." Xiao Qin poured cold water on it.
"Then invite the official to prove it for us." Xuan Chu, who had been thinking about it, suddenly said.
Everyone looked at each other.
"We'll find an official professional organization to do the appraisal." Xuan Chu said loudly.
***
Looking back afterwards, the variety show "Fruit King" had a great influence on Xuan Chu.
He met Du Qin and Zhu Geng because of this program.However, his relationship with the former has changed from an enemy to a friend, while his relationship with the latter has changed from a friend to an enemy, which makes people feel the wonder of fate.
Also through this program, he also met Professor Hao from the Institute of Botany, Huaxia Academy of Sciences.
When recording "Fruit King", he once listened to gossips from the staff member Yuanzi. In fact, Zhu Geng rejected the program team's invitation at first, but he changed his mind and agreed after reading the list of participants.
At that time, everyone speculated about which female star Zhu Geng was coming for. Later Xuan Chu found out that his target was indeed a woman, but not a star, but Professor Hao.
Zhu Geng wholeheartedly wanted to recruit Professor Hao and her team into his training base. Firstly, he liked their abilities, and secondly, because of Professor Hao's identity.
She is not only an authority in the field of botany, but also the deputy director of the Institute of Botany, Huaxia Academy of Sciences.If you get in touch with her, it means that fresh fruit enjoys another layer of protection.
But I don't know if Professor Hao saw through Zhu Geng's plan. During the recording of the program, he was always lukewarm to him, but he chatted with Xuan Chu a few more times. This is due to Professor Wu Ming of Tianhai University.
At the end of the program, Xuanchu and Professor Hao added WeChat to each other.When the online store opened, Xuan Chu specially sent several boxes of fruit to the other party.
Professor Hao was happy to help when he learned of his purpose.
"Xiao Hu, I will pass on your request to the institute. But let me explain in advance that the cost of a complete set of tests is not low."
Xuan Chu smiled wryly: "As long as the problem can be solved, no matter how much money you have, you have to spend it."
Soon after, Wonderful Fruit Store’s accounts on various platforms released the same statement.
The general idea is that in order to get rid of all kinds of false statements about the wonderful fruit on the Internet recently, the fruit shop will invite the Institute of Botany of the Huaxia Academy of Sciences to test the products it sells, and the whole process will be broadcast live at that time.
Undoubtedly, the statement sparked heated discussions.
Some people say that Miracle Fruit Store did this just for hype, but in fact, it has already bought the testing unit.
However, some people also said that the Huaxia Academy of Sciences is an authoritative unit, and it is impossible to falsify.
Regardless of whether the public opinion is good or bad, on the day of the live broadcast, there are many people who eat melons in the live broadcast room.
The live broadcast was carried out at the headquarters of the research institute in the imperial capital, and the commodities to be tested had already arrived in advance, in addition to fresh fruits, there were also fruit derivatives such as jams.
The host of the live broadcast was Xuanchu himself. During the period before the start of the test, he had been answering various questions from netizens.
Cough, if you insist on using "恐" to describe it, it seems that there is nothing wrong with it?
"Data falsification? Please, even if you doubt me, you can't doubt the respectable and lovely scientists."
"The fruits tested are all prepared in advance and are specially used to deal with inspections? My friend, you have such a big brain, and it's a shame not to write science fiction. Let me emphasize that all the fruits tested today are from our store. Randomly selected, but we invited a notary to accompany us all the way."
"Is the test accurate? Good guy, do you know how high the international ranking of the Institute of Botany of the Huaxia Academy of Sciences is?"
"Brother anchor is so handsome, do you need a girlfriend? I'm sorry, brother anchor just wants to start a career now. Next..."
On Student Street, Tianhai City thousands of miles away, Wonderful Fruit Shop was closed today, but the shop assistants all spontaneously came to the shop and gathered around to watch the live broadcast.
"It's the first time I've seen the boss be so snarky, full of firepower." Sun Lang said, "I thought he had such a gentle and jade-like personality."
Xiao Qin held his face and said with a smirk: "I feel that the boss who hates people is more handsome than usual."
When Xiao Changxiao, who was quietly playing in the corner, heard this, he quickly glanced at the screen, curled his lips, and secretly slandered:
The fox also asked him not to reveal his inhuman identity, he himself was fine, what kind of live broadcast would sell his appearance, in case others would not know that he was not an ordinary person?
Xiao Changxiao, who was so jealous, didn't realize that something was wrong with his mentality, and he didn't take it seriously, and couldn't help but glance at the screen from time to time.
Xiao Qin smiled and waved, "Xiao Xiao, come and watch together."
Xiao Changxiao's heart tightened, he narrowed his eyes slightly, and cast a meaningful look at Xiao Qin.
But the girl didn't realize it, and smiled again: "Come here, it's more lively to watch together."
It turned out that he was worrying too much.
Xiao Changxiao breathed a sigh of relief, then put down the phone as if nothing had happened, nodded reservedly, and said, "That's fine."
……
The test results were announced, and it was no surprise that the tested fruits not only met the standards in all indexes, but also far exceeded the average fruit.
In fact, before this, Tianhai University had also tested fruits such as passion fruit in Wonderful Fruit Store, and the results were similar to the test data this time.
If it is said that a test may be falsified or misjudged, and the same result appears again the second time, and there are voices of doubt, then it is pure embarrassment.
After this incident, those discordant voices could not be said to have completely disappeared, but they did weaken a lot, and the business in the store began to slowly return to its original level.
As the saying goes, blessings and misfortunes depend on each other, when disasters are resolved, good things follow.
First of all, the nationality of Wonderful Fruit Store has been greatly improved.
Thanks to this turbulent scandal, Wonderful Fruit Store was forced to be bundled with Xianxiang Fruit, which was frequently mentioned by major media. Although it was well known by more people, the brand image once plummeted, and it can be said to be notorious. .
Brand humiliation, no matter what brand it is, is a serious blow. Fortunately, Xuanchu responded in a timely manner and took the initiative to find the research institute for testing.
This time he did not hesitate to spend money and found a number of media to report on the matter.And it happened that the media also wanted to gain popularity, and the two hit it off immediately, stirring up the test.
Originally, the brand of Miracle Fruit was only relatively famous on the Internet, and its target audience was mainly limited to young people.But nowadays, many middle-aged and elderly people who don’t use the Internet very much also know that there is a fruit shop named Wonderful. The quality of the fruit has been certified by the scientists of the National Research Institute, which is safe and healthy.
With Wonderful Fruit Store taking the lead, many fruit merchants have also sought out various institutions for testing. Of course, none of them can compare to the wonderfulness of the first "crab-eating".
The second good news is that Miracle Fruit Store is about to open a branch.
After the downfall of Xianxiang Fruit, the company’s fruit stores located in many places were also implicated, and because the main person in charge of the company disappeared overnight, the company was investigated, leaderless, and completely shut down.
Xianxiang Fruit started from marketing. Its purpose is to create a fruit empire integrating food, leisure and entertainment. It has never been stingy in investing in store hardware and equipment. Therefore, most of the store locations are located in prosperous areas of large and medium-sized cities.
After the accident, these shops were closed and the employees were dismissed. However, the lease has not yet expired. If they want to terminate the contract early, they have to pay a large amount of breach of contract fees.
Some of the shop owners were very decisive. They changed their names and signs directly, put aside their relationship with Xianxiang Fruit, and continued to run a new shop—even the top management of the company ran away.
However, in some stores, due to insufficient funds, or the owner does not want to get involved in this matter, he tries to sublet or sell the store.
A fruit shop in the imperial capital was one of the unlucky ones affected by the turmoil.
The store is a franchise store of Xianxiang Fruit. Not long after it was newly opened, the funds invested in the early stage have not been earned back, and the head office collapsed.
The shop owner is a fruit lover, and he is unwilling to see this shop that took his painstaking effort to close down like this. However, because the business is greatly affected and the capital chain is broken, he cannot continue to operate for the time being, so he can only reluctantly sell it.
But he has one condition, he hopes that the other party can continue to operate the fruit shop.
In fact, the location of this store is very good, it is located in a bustling shopping mall in the central business district, and the price is easy to negotiate, so you may not be able to find another one.It's just because of the strict requirements of the shop owner, I inspected several buyers who are willing to take over, but they are not very satisfied.
It happened that the owner of the store knew Du Qin, so I asked her to find out if there was any suitable next door. The price was negotiable, but the key was to be reliable.
Du Qin immediately thought of Xuan Chu.
It's hard to say anything else, but in terms of reliability, there is no more suitable candidate than Xuan Chu.I didn't see how long Wonderful Fruit Store has been in business, and it has grown to such a scale, which shows that its ability is not bad.
Knowing that the recommended candidate is the owner of Wonderful Fruit Shop, Du Qin's friends are also satisfied.
He was also paying attention to the wonderful public opinion battle at Wonderful Fruit Store recently, and immediately said that if the buyer was Xuan Chu, he would be willing to give up a little more profit on the price.
When Xuanchu received Du Qin's call, he was being invited to dine at He Zhiqiang's restaurant with the staff.
Since leaving Sillage, He Zhiqiang did not accept the olive branches thrown by other restaurants, but chose to open a completely private restaurant of his own. As his own boss, he completed everything from purchasing to recipes to cooking.
He said that he was a little tired, but he felt at ease and happy, which was the most important thing.
His private restaurant is in trial operation, and all the members of Wonderful Fruit Shop are invited to taste it.
Xuanchu and the others happily attend the appointment, firstly to congratulate the opening of the restaurant, and secondly to celebrate Wonderful Fruit Store's smooth passage through the crisis.
The area of the new restaurant is small, and the decoration is relatively simple. It can only accommodate three sets of tables and chairs. To be honest, the environment is not small compared with Sillage.
But as soon as the meal was served, everyone's attention was attracted by the dishes, and the space was not wide enough, the atmosphere was not elegant enough, and they were all forgotten in an instant.
"Do you feel that Chef He's craftsmanship has improved again?" Zhang Chao's face was full of tears, if he hadn't been concerned about dining etiquette, he would have liked to lick all the sauce on the plate.
Except for Xiao Qin and Xiao Changxiao, everyone else nodded in agreement.
They also tasted He Zhiqiang's handicraft in Sillage before, and it was delicious, but it seemed to be a little short of "amazing".
And after a period of rest, He Zhiqiang once again broke through his own limit, taking a step closer to perfection.
He Zhiqiang's eyes were wrinkled when he heard everyone's sincere praise.
In fact, during these days, it's not that he hasn't doubted whether his decision is correct, and sometimes he can't sleep at night, wondering what will happen if he fails.
But now, he felt that all the pain was worth it.Because it is this kind of pain like a broken chrysalis that makes me a better self.
Xuan Chu stepped forward to hug him, patted his shoulder, and said with a smile, "Congratulations, your hard work has paid off."
He could understand He Zhiqiang's feelings. When he had just left Qingqiu to join the disciples of Cihang Taoist, he was also at a loss for a while.
Because of his poor health, he usually feels tired after standing for a long time, and his cultivation is not even comparable to the most ordinary little Taoist boy, so he feels ashamed of himself.
Later, with the help of his master and fellow disciples, he took good care of his body and practiced hard to become himself.
So he appreciates people like He Zhiqiang who are so tireless and hardworking.
"Xiaoxiao, why don't you eat? Are you full?" Xiao Qin asked when the little boy sitting next to him suddenly put down the tableware.
He Zhiqiang also heard her inquiry, and immediately asked nervously: "Is it because the food is not to your liking?"
As a chef, he is very concerned about customers' evaluation of the dishes. Only by understanding the shortcomings can he have the possibility of continuous improvement.
Xiao Changxiao jumped off the chair expressionlessly, and walked towards the bathroom without saying a word.
Xiao Qin suddenly said: "Oh, he probably wants to solve his physical needs."
He Zhiqiang also breathed a sigh of relief.As long as there is no problem with the food.
Only Xuan Chu frowned slightly.
What are you kidding, Taoist Changxiao still needs to go to the bathroom?
Of course, it was not good for him to say this in front of everyone, so he had to stop Xiao Changxiao at the door of the bathroom with the excuse that he had to go to the bathroom too.
"Xiaoxiao——" Seeing Xiao Changxiao's face changed slightly, he immediately changed his words, "Daojun, did you encounter something unhappy?"
Xiao Changxiao stared at him silently with a straight face.
Xuanchu tentatively asked, "Is Xiaoxiaole not clearing the level?"
Xiao Changxiao: "..."
I guessed wrong.
Xuan Chu shrugged, and asked again: "Is it because the game coins are used up?"
Xiao Changxiao: "..."
It doesn't appear to be this either.
Xuan Chu was helpless, and said bluntly: "What is the reason, if you don't tell me, I can't guess."
After a moment of silence, he finally said, "Why did you do that to He Zhiqiang?"
"What action?" Xuan Chu asked subconsciously, and then he understood again, "Oh, you mean I hugged him?"
Xiao Changxiao's expression changed suddenly: "You actually said that word!"
Ah this.
Xuan Chu couldn't laugh or cry, he said in his heart that when you were a kitten, you didn't know how much you loved to rub against my arms, but now you are so innocent, you are ashamed to even say the word "hug".
Of course, slander belongs to slander, he didn't dare to say this in person, so he had to explain:
"Mr. Dao, you don't know. In the current human world, hugging is actually a relatively common thing. Hugs can be embraced between family members, lovers, friends, and even strangers. In some places, hugging is a courtesy when meeting, just like It's the same as the hands-on ceremony in our comprehension world."
Xiao Changxiao widened his eyes in shock.
In his cognition, the action of hugging is limited to very close and intimate couples.
For him, such moments of tenderness are rare.
The Qilin clan has never been as flamboyant as the Dragon clan, and they are reserved by nature. Even if they like it in their hearts, they will not say it casually.
Seeing him like this, Xuan Chu couldn't help being teased, stepped forward, half bent down, opened his arms, gently wrapped his arms around the boy, and said with a light smile:
"Hugs have many meanings, encouragement, etiquette, comfort... Of course, there is also one of the most primitive meanings, which is love."
Rumble!
Xiao Changxiao only felt as if a thunderbolt exploded in his ears, which made him dizzy and dizzy, and felt that the blood all over his body seemed to be roasted on the fire, which made him panic.
After a long second, he pushed Xuan Chu away.
"Cheng, Cheng, how decent!" He said loudly, and fled the scene with hands and feet.
Seeing his back in a panic, Xuan Chu blinked.
So... Daojun is shy?
Before he could think about it, his phone rang suddenly.
The author has something to say:
Chang Xiao (with a flushed face): Big, bold!
Xuan Chu: It turns out that Mr. Xiao Dao is innocent →_→
This time, however, the nature of the incident was different.
According to the police report, Xianxiang Fruit has been secretly researching various new varieties of fruits for many years.

"Then invite the official to prove it for us." Xuan Chu, who had been thinking about it, suddenly said.
Everyone looked at each other.
"We'll find an official professional organization to do the appraisal." Xuan Chu said loudly.
***
Looking back afterwards, the variety show "Fruit King" had a great influence on Xuan Chu.
He met Du Qin and Zhu Geng because of this program.However, his relationship with the former has changed from an enemy to a friend, while his relationship with the latter has changed from a friend to an enemy, which makes people feel the wonder of fate.
Also through this program, he also met Professor Hao from the Institute of Botany, Huaxia Academy of Sciences.
When recording "Fruit King", he once listened to gossips from the staff member Yuanzi. In fact, Zhu Geng rejected the program team's invitation at first, but he changed his mind and agreed after reading the list of participants.
At that time, everyone speculated about which female star Zhu Geng was coming for. Later Xuan Chu found out that his target was indeed a woman, but not a star, but Professor Hao.
Zhu Geng wholeheartedly wanted to recruit Professor Hao and her team into his training base. Firstly, he liked their abilities, and secondly, because of Professor Hao's identity.
She is not only an authority in the field of botany, but also the deputy director of the Institute of Botany, Huaxia Academy of Sciences.If you get in touch with her, it means that fresh fruit enjoys another layer of protection.

The live broadcast was carried out at the headquarters of the research institute in the imperial capital, and the commodities to be tested had already arrived in advance, in addition to fresh fruits, there were also fruit derivatives such as jams.
The host of the live broadcast was Xuanchu himself. During the period before the start of the test, he had been answering various questions from netizens.
Cough, if you insist on using "恐" to describe it, it seems that there is nothing wrong with it?
"Data falsification? Please, even if you doubt me, you can't doubt the respectable and lovely scientists."
"The fruits tested are all prepared in advance and are specially used to deal with inspections? My friend, you have such a big brain, and it's a shame not to write science fiction.

"Is the test accurate? Good guy, do you know how high the international ranking of the Institute of Botany of the Huaxia Academy of Sciences is?"
"Brother anchor is so handsome, do you need a girlfriend? I'm sorry, brother anchor just wants to start a career now. Next..."
On Student Street, Tianhai City thousands of miles away, Wonderful Fruit Shop was closed today, but the shop assistants all spontaneously came to the shop and gathered around to watch the live broadcast.
"It's the first time I've seen the boss be so snarky, full of firepower." Sun Lang said, "I thought he had such a gentle and jade-like personality."
Xiao Qin held his face and said with a smirk: "I feel that the boss who hates people is more handsome than usual."
When Xiao Changxiao, who was quietly playing in the corner, heard this, he quickly glanced at the screen, curled his lips, and secretly slandered:

The test results were announced, and it was no surprise that the tested fruits not only met the standards in all indexes, but also far exceeded the average fruit.
In fact, before this, Tianhai University had also tested fruits such as passion fruit in Wonderful Fruit Store, and the results were similar to the test data this time.
If it is said that a test may be falsified or misjudged, and the same result appears again the second time, and there are voices of doubt, then it is pure embarrassment.

He Zhiqiang also breathed a sigh of relief.As long as there is no problem with the food.
Only Xuan Chu frowned slightly.
What are you kidding, Taoist Changxiao still needs to go to the bathroom?
Of course, it was not good for him to say this in front of everyone, so he had to stop Xiao Changxiao at the door of the bathroom with the excuse that he had to go to the bathroom too.
"Xiaoxiao——" Seeing Xiao Changxiao's face changed slightly, he immediately changed his words, "Daojun, did you encounter something unhappy?"
Xiao Changxiao stared at him silently with a straight face.
Xuanchu tentatively asked, "Is Xiaoxiaole not clearing the level?"
Xiao Changxiao: "..."
I guessed wrong.
Xuan Chu shrugged, and asked again: "Is it because the game coins are used up?"
Xiao Changxiao: "..."
It doesn't appear to be this either.
Xuan Chu was helpless, and said bluntly: "What is the reason, if you don't tell me, I can't guess."
After a moment of silence, he finally said, "Why did you do that to He Zhiqiang?"
"What action?" Xuan Chu asked subconsciously, and then he understood again, "Oh, you mean I hugged him?"
Xiao Changxiao's expression changed suddenly: "You actually said that word!"
Ah this.
Xuan Chu couldn't laugh or cry, he said in his heart that when you were a kitten, you didn't know how much you loved to rub against my arms, but now you are so innocent, you are ashamed to even say the word "hug".
Of course, slander belongs to slander, he didn't dare to say this in person, so he had to explain:
"Mr. Dao, you don't know. In the current human world, hugging is actually a relatively common thing. Hugs can be embraced between family members, lovers, friends, and even strangers. In some places, hugging is a courtesy when meeting, just like It's the same as the hands-on ceremony in our comprehension world."
Xiao Changxiao widened his eyes in shock.
In his cognition, the action of hugging is limited to very close and intimate couples.
For him, such moments of tenderness are rare.
The Qilin clan has never been as flamboyant as the Dragon clan, and they are reserved by nature. Even if they like it in their hearts, they will not say it casually.
Seeing him like this, Xuan Chu couldn't help being teased, stepped forward, half bent down, opened his arms, gently wrapped his arms around the boy, and said with a light smile:
"Hugs have many meanings, encouragement, etiquette, comfort... Of course, there is also one of the most primitive meanings, which is love."
Rumble!
Xiao Changxiao only felt as if a thunderbolt exploded in his ears, which made him dizzy and dizzy, and felt that the blood all over his body seemed to be roasted on the fire, which made him panic.
After a long second, he pushed Xuan Chu away.
"Cheng, Cheng, how decent!" He said loudly, and fled the scene with hands and feet.
Seeing his back in a panic, Xuan Chu blinked.
So... Daojun is shy?
Before he could think about it, his phone rang suddenly.
The author has something to say:
Chang Xiao (with a flushed face): Big, bold!
Xuan Chu: It turns out that Mr. Xiao Dao is innocent →_→
