I manifested the Shushan game

Chapter 176 A New Use for the Warehouse! He's truly kind-hearted!

After Chen Han finished processing the monster meat, he put it into several prepared stewing pots, lit a fire to stew it, and then left his uncle's kitchen to take another look.

The traditional Chinese style event started today, and many tourists who booked tickets arrived last night. So, there were many tourists participating in the event early this morning, and many of them were wearing Hanfu (traditional Han clothing).

This is also a characteristic of traditional Chinese culture events.

After leaving his uncle's courtyard, he strolled around the Chen family's various places and found that there were basically no problems.

Since the Chen family now has the tendency to punish minor offenses as a warning, he wasn't too worried, so he also planned to go outside the Chen family compound to take a look.

After all, once the Chen family leaves, the "minor punishment as a warning" attribute becomes ineffective.

Just as they stepped out of the Chen family's gate, they encountered Huang Xin, who was leading a group of people on patrol from the other side.

Today, their waists are visibly adorned with batons and handcuffs.

This doesn't happen during regular patrols.

Today's purpose is clearly to intimidate.

After all, there are too many people participating in the traditional Chinese culture event.

"Good morning, Patriarch Chen!" Huang Xin greeted him with a smile.

"Captain Huang, what a coincidence! Shall we take a walk together?" Chen Han invited with a smile.

Huang Xin nodded with a smile.

He also planned to patrol Shangyuan Village.

Once outside the Chen family compound, you can see that the Immortal Cultivation Market is already very lively.

Over time, a stable market has formed here, with many villagers coming to sell their goods, and the county has sent management personnel.

Today there were an unusually large number of people, with all kinds of food stalls and local specialty product stalls filling the area.

When Chen Han arrived, he saw the vendors greeting him.

"Master Chen!"

"Master Chen!"

"..."

These people are able to come here to sell their goods because they know who they owe it to: the head of the Chen family, who developed tourism and allowed them to sell their goods here.

With the increasing number of tourists visiting Chenshi, setting up a stall here for a month can earn more than working outside.

Several people who walked by witnessed this scene.

One person was carrying a camera, and the leader was a girl holding a microphone.

They were reporters from the county television station.

Given the county's emphasis on the Chen family's traditional cultural activities, the television station naturally wanted to gather material for its coverage.

Wang Ting is the reporter in charge of this matter.

To have more material to choose from, she brought her people over early in the morning. Unexpectedly, she found some great material as soon as she arrived at the Chen family's place, and quickly asked the photographer to capture the scene.

She could naturally tell that these people respected the head of the Chen family.

A person who can command the respect of everyone in a place must be an extraordinary person.

At least in the eyes of these people, the head of the Chen family must be very remarkable.

The image of a young family head returning to his hometown to lead his clan to prosperity while also benefiting the villagers in various villages is quite vivid.

Although the terms "family" and "family head" are not mainstream in this day and age, the traditions of Taoist families must be respected.

Moreover, this reminded her of the story of the Chen family. It seems that during the war years, the Chen family also gathered young men from the surrounding villages and towns to protect them.

It seems that what the Chen family head is doing now is the same thing the Chen family used to do, only the way he does it is different.

This is perhaps a fine tradition of their family.

The idea of ​​helping others when one is successful is not something everyone can do.

Chen Han entered the Immortal Cultivation Market. There were indeed more vendors from outside than usual today, and even the entire Shangyuan Village had set up stalls.

This is also a market demand and a form of development.

This kind of development must be healthy.

There are also too many instances online of vendors ruining a place's long-term tourism development by forcing customers to buy or sell inferior goods.

"Master Chen, try some of my peaches!" A stall owner from another village saw him and immediately packed a few peaches and handed them to him.

This is clearly pandering.

Everyone knows this is the Chen family head's place, so we should be more sensible.

As they walked, Chen Han accumulated quite a few things in his hands, and eventually, unable to carry any more, he had to decline.

Suddenly, he frowned and looked at a stall selling candied fruit.

The price is marked as *mountain candied fruit, 100 yuan per jin.

The vendor was also shouting: "Everyone, take a look! Genuine *mountain candied fruit, 100 yuan per pound, absolutely genuine!"

But Chen Han noticed a flicker in the stall owner's eyes, a feeling that made him very uncomfortable.

This is because his senses and observation abilities improved after his cultivation level increased.

Of course, one cannot judge a person solely based on this, but if it is a normal villager, who comes here to sell things for a small amount of money, they would almost never buy such expensive items.

Hearing his calls, some tourists had already asked, "100 yuan a pound, is this *mountain candied fruit genuine?"

The stall owner immediately smiled and said, "This tourist, how could it be fake? If it were fake, would I dare to sell it here at Master Chen's place? You can see from the news online that selling counterfeit goods here will bring bad luck."

These words resonated with the tourists, who all nodded in agreement.

Because that statement is correct.

Selling counterfeit goods to the Chen family head is practically suicide!
Two unfortunate individuals have already made the news.

Chen Han, who had only been hesitant before, now frowned and stepped forward.

Since the other party is using him and the Chen family as a pretext, and this person gives him an uncomfortable feeling, he should at least confirm things.

This approach doesn't have the effect of a minor punishment serving as a warning, nor does it allow anyone to exploit loopholes.

He went straight up and grabbed a few candied fruits, one of which he had already secretly put into his game inventory.

He thought of the special function of the game's storage, and perhaps he could make use of it at this time.

But the next moment, his brows furrowed, and he was right.

[*Fake Candied Fruit: This product is made by mixing candied fruit ingredients with a syrup. It imitates *Shanshan Candied Fruit, but it only costs 5 yuan per jin (1g), which is 20 times cheaper than the real *Shanshan Candied Fruit.]

Chen Han frowned even more deeply. This stall owner was using his and the Chen family's names to give people a psychological suggestion. If it were genuine, he would let it go, after all, it's not easy for anyone to make a living.

The key issue is that this guy is selling counterfeit goods, and the difference is 20 times greater, which is unforgivable.

Even if things are more expensive in tourist areas, there's no reason for them to be 20 times more expensive.

If a discerning tourist happens to come along and exposes it online, and the online outcry escalates, they won't even mention the vendor's name. Instead, they'll say things like, "A tourist bought fake *Shan candied fruit from Chen's shop, at a price 20 times higher..."

When the time comes, those media outlets will definitely reprint and broadcast it in order to get traffic, and they will also zoom in and highlight the two characters 'Chen'.

In the end, the Chen family will suffer the consequences of their undeserved misfortune.

The stall owner was clearly startled when Chen Han suddenly appeared in front of him, but he quickly put on a calm demeanor and said, "Master Chen, please try my candied fruit. It's absolutely authentic *mountain candied fruit."

Chen Han didn't respond, but instead said coldly, "Not bad, fake candied fruit that costs 5 yuan a pound can be sold for 100 yuan here at Chen's, which is 20 times more."

These words immediately made the stall owner's face turn ugly: "Patriarch Chen, what...what did you say?"

Chen Han pointed to Huang Xin and the others beside him and said, "I think you should have a talk with Officer Huang and the others."

The stall owner, of course, also saw Huang Xin and his group in police uniforms, and his face turned even uglier: "Master Chen, I..."

He wanted to make an excuse, but when he thought of the legends about the Chen family and how the head of the Chen family would expose him if he came over, he was too scared to even try.

run?
Don't underestimate the number of police officers involved; they'll only face more serious consequences later.

Overwhelmed by double fear, he could only stand there, too afraid to move.

Huang Xin understood what was going on. This person was selling counterfeit goods at 20 times the price, which was definitely a violation of regulations. He looked at the Chen family head in surprise. The man had been walking with him the whole time and hadn't even tasted the products. How could he have discovered it?
That's just amazing.

He specialized in criminal investigation; without specifically investigating the stall owner, he wouldn't have been able to spot the problem with these candied fruits at a glance.

Not to mention, it was accurately stated that it cost 5 yuan per jin (500 grams).

However, he did not hesitate and waved his hand, signaling the police officers behind him to step forward, control the stall owner, and pack up his stall.

The commotion attracted tourists from all around, who gathered to watch.

Chen Dapao, wearing a red armband, also arrived with several elderly people. Upon seeing Chen Han, he asked, "Patriarch, what's wrong?"

Chen Han explained, "They're selling counterfeit goods. They're selling something that costs 5 yuan for 100 yuan. Captain Huang and his team are dealing with it."

"What?" Chen Dapao was furious upon hearing this: "This heartless bastard is trying to ruin my Chen family!"

As he spoke, he took out a megaphone and shouted, "Dear tourists, the stalls selling candied fruit here are selling counterfeit products. Tourists who have bought candied fruit here can come over and register."

He shouted it several times in a row.

Chen Han also instructed, "Uncle Dapao, have the clan broadcast this again later."

“Yes, Master.” Chen Dapao nodded.

When Chen Dapao shouted through the loudspeaker, all the tourists were astonished, especially those who had been standing nearby, who began to whisper among themselves:

"This guy just said how dare he sell counterfeit goods at Chen's? See? You can't just say things like that."

"You can only say this person is very brave; he clearly saw the news."

"Patriarch Chen is truly remarkable. He caught this counterfeit seller as soon as he arrived."

"..."

The stall owners around also noticed the situation and all looked over.

Chen Han looked at the stall owners around him, took the megaphone from Chen Dapao's hand, and said, "Everyone is welcome to sell their products here at Chen's place. Chen's and I both welcome you."

"But everyone must keep their word and not sell fake things to our Chen family's tourists. Our tourists trust and like our Chen family and come here specifically to visit. We Chen family will never let our tourists be deceived again."

"The Chen family does not welcome those who engage in fraud. If they are discovered, they will not be let off the hook and will be handed over to the police directly."

These words immediately drew applause from many tourists around.

After all, the Chen family head was thinking of them; at least it showed his determination to sell counterfeit goods.

But after this incident, word got out, and anyone who would dare to sell counterfeit goods to the Chen family would be incredibly brave.

Upon hearing Chen Han's words, the surrounding stall owners also expressed that they had a clear conscience and that the goods they sold were genuine.

Chen Han nodded and continued reading.

Huang Xin had three police officers take the stall owner and stall away, while he continued to stroll around with Chen Han.

Chen Han didn't actually need to check some fruits, vegetables, and specialty dried bamboo shoots. The prices of these farm products were already set, and they were basically impossible to fake, as long as they were fresh.

He would personally check the authenticity of the more expensive items. Most of the stall owners were local villagers, very honest and simple, and their prices were fair.

It's understandable that the price is slightly higher than the market price, since everyone needs to make a profit. Consider it a small token of appreciation for the effort of bringing the items here.

As long as it's within a certain range, it's fine.

He was drawn to a stall selling dried goods on the edge of the market and walked over.

The stall owner was very old, and he had a little girl with him. The little girl was very well-behaved and was doing her homework. It must be Sunday, and she was accompanying her grandfather to set up the stall.

In general, this situation likely indicates that the family is facing financial difficulties. You can tell from the little girl's behavior that she wouldn't be so sensible at her age unless the family is truly struggling.

While not absolutely true, this is likely true to a large extent.

"Master Chen, please have some of this dried goods that I made myself." When the old man saw Chen Han coming over, he obviously recognized him and hurriedly grabbed a handful of dried goods with his gloves and handed them to him in a fawning manner.

Chen Han simply grabbed a little bit, put it in his mouth, and found it tasted quite good.

At the same time, he secretly put the two dried items into his game inventory and also saw the notes.

[Dried Goods: Old Li's uniquely handmade dried goods, made to earn some money for his granddaughter's schooling. He uses plump dried ingredients and adds some pear blossom candy for an even more delicious flavor. Cost: 3 yuan/jin!]

I checked the price; it was 5 yuan per jin.

The other party considered this a local specialty dried product, and he ate some; it tasted really good.

This price is already very reasonable; they're only making a profit on the labor.

Moreover, this note seems to confirm that his guess was correct; the other party is indeed facing great difficulty.

Thinking about it, he asked the old man, "This dried food is made with pear blossom candy, right? It's very delicious."

Hearing his words, the old man was also very happy and said, "Master Chen, you can tell just by taking a bite? It does indeed contain pear blossom candy."

Chen Han grabbed a little more and gave it to Huang Xin, saying, "Officer Huang, you should try it. This old man's dried goods are really good."

His words clearly attracted the attention of the surrounding tourists, who all gathered around, some even filming him. After all, the head of the Chen family was an internet celebrity.

"Even the head of the Chen family said it must be delicious, so the old man weighed out 4 jin for me!"

"Give me a pound to try too."

"..."

The old man's stall was immediately surrounded by tourists.

This is the celebrity effect.

If an ordinary person says something is delicious, not many people will believe them. But if a famous person says it, people will definitely try it.

The key is that the Chen family members are all after Chen Han, so they are naturally eager to try their luck.

The old man immediately became flustered, and the little girl, very obediently and sensibly, put down her homework and started helping.

The old man packed a package of dried goods for the tourists, then looked at Chen Han with gratitude in his eyes.

"Team Leader Huang, shall we go to the village and take a look?" Chen Han invited Huang Xin.

"Master Chen, are you deliberately promoting that old man's family?" Huang Xin said in surprise. "Their situation is indeed that of a family in difficulty. Master Chen, you are a kind-hearted person."

"The dried goods made by the old man are indeed delicious," Chen Han said with a smile, and walked straight into the village.

Behind them, Wang Ting and the others followed and filmed from a distance. They were very surprised by this Chen family head, who could not only tell the difference between real and fake candied fruit at a glance, but also taste what ingredients the old man had put in his dried goods.

This Chen family head seems to be very knowledgeable.

Crucially, they also noticed that the old man was in trouble. The head of the Chen family helped the old man with just a few simple words and then quietly left.

It is evident that this Chen family head is a kind-hearted person. As the head of a Taoist family, he truly lives up to the great principles of Taoism.

No wonder the Chen family was able to develop and receive such attention from the county.

At least for now, he deserves it.

Moreover, these are all excellent sources.

Chen Han and Huang Xin left the Immortal Cultivation Market and went straight to the village. There were still many stalls there, and some tourists were browsing around.

His arrival was noticed by the tourists, and some of the bolder female tourists couldn't help but ask him, "Patriarch Chen, do you really know cloud-blocking magic? Do you really know immortal cultivation techniques?"

Faced with this question, Chen Han smiled and said, "Madam, you must believe in science. Where in modern society can you find any magical arts for cultivating immortality?"

"..." Female tourist.

The head of the Chen family has made it clear that he's not going to pretend anymore, yet he's still putting on an act.

As time went by, the number of tourists visiting Chen's area increased. Ding Lei and her best friend He Yuan slept in late. After washing up, they checked the time and, without hesitation, hurriedly took their two signs and left the visitor center.

There's a lucky draw at the traditional Chinese culture event today. Chen informed us that the lucky draw will officially start at 10:00 AM. We definitely need to go to the parking lot first and put up a sign to tell everyone that they want to collect royal jelly and scar removal cream.

When others get out of the parking lot, they will see their signs.

Moreover, with a price tag of 1 yuan per serving, I'm sure I can buy one.

However, when they arrived at the parking lot, they were completely dumbfounded.

There are actually experts?
