I just want to sell products, but you're forcing me to perform talents.

Chapter 193 Suggested Retail Price: 0.2 yuan

"Hey guys, you might not believe it, but this box was dug out of the ruins of my house. Sun Li found it while she was sorting through the warehouse junk. Inside the box, there should be an ancient book."

[The moon is crescent-shaped because I gnawed it: Holy crap, an antique? Brother Xian, you're always yelling about going bankrupt, but your house keeps producing amazing things?]

[Too lazy to come up with a name: Ancient book? Could it be the ancient "Ten-Year Compilation of Imperial Examinations"?]

[Farewell My Chicken: Hahaha, I bet it's a risqué book.]

[Top Scorer: I'd also bet it's a boudoir-themed book, complete with illustrations.]

……

When Ye Xian opened the old box, he was filled with curiosity and surprise, like opening a blind box. But when he saw the book inside, he froze on the spot.

Li Xin and Duan Fei leaned closer, glanced at it, and burst into laughter.

"Hahaha, Brother Xian, it's actually a cookbook."

"I'm dying of laughter. I thought it was some rare book, but it turns out to be a cookbook."

[The egg that was forcibly fried: 23333, what a waste of Brother Xian's anticipation.]

[Daily Chicken Management: Bad review. I thought it was a colored illustrated book.]

[Button-pressing can cause injury: In a sense, some recipes are also colored.]

[Squatting in front of the grave, teasing her ghost husband: A recipe with colors, isn't that just poop?]

……

The group of people laughing at Ye Xian in unison, and Li Xin and Duan Fei were also laughing so hard they were dumbfounded. Ye Xian smiled wryly and took out the ancient book from the box.

This book is really simple, with just two white words on the blue cover.

"recipe".

Upon opening the book, I noticed that the pages were yellowed, the text was arranged vertically, and each page featured an illustration of hand-drawn food.

Ye Xian was immediately drawn in.

He is a person who loves to cook. He can't be considered a gourmet, but his skills are better than the average person. He often thinks about these things when he is in another world.

Now that he had come across an ancient cookbook that recorded many delicious dishes, his curiosity was piqued.

Ye Xian was so engrossed in the video that he completely forgot he was still live-streaming.

Li Xin and Duan Fei didn't dare to disturb Ye Xian's reading, so they could only watch. Thus, tens of thousands of viewers in the live stream and the two women watched Ye Xian read.

[Three seconds later, a cold shoulder: Brother Xian, this cookbook isn't actually one of those with erotic illustrations, is it?]

[Drink this bowl of menstrual blood: You're so engrossed in watching, Brother Xian, watch out for your drool!]

[Ugly people should read more books: Judging from Xin Ge and Fei Ge's expressions, it's probably just an ordinary book!]

[How can one govern the world if one's chest is not flat? Is it possible that the two of them are merely feigning composure while their hearts are in turmoil?]

[Please call me Jishiwu: 6 people in the live stream watching Brother Xian read books, we're so bored!]

[There are always women who want to sleep with me: The problem is, the number isn't decreasing, it's actually increasing, now it's 7.]

……

Seeing Ye Xian's stunned expression, everyone became curious as well.

But Ye Xian remained silent, so everyone could only wait. Li Xin and Duan Fei, getting bored, moved the camera aside and said, "Brother Xian is engrossed in his book, why don't we sell some merchandise for everyone?"

The crowd immediately objected, but many others were bored and urged the two to sing a new song. So the two of them wandered around the messy construction site with their live-streaming cameras, humming a new song softly as they waited for Ye Xian.

About ten minutes later, Ye Xian exhaled and sat up straight. The two women immediately came over, and the camera was also pointed at Ye Xian.

"Brother Xian, isn't this just a cookbook? Why are you looking at it for so long?"

Ye Xian stroked the book cover reluctantly and said, "This book is an ancient cookbook with many lost famous dishes. I had only heard of them before, but now I can actually see them. This book is absolutely priceless in the eyes of a master chef."

"That amazing?"

Li Xin and Duan Fei stared wide-eyed. They had just been mocking the book for being just a cookbook, but they never expected that a cookbook was so different from any other cookbook.

[Ye Xian, you're not planning to fleece us, are you? You're even planning to sell this book? How shameless!]

Lift your skull: Turn to the back page, will you see a line of small print: "Suggested retail price: NT$0.2"?

[Riding a snail to chase an elephant: Exactly! A tattered book, spouting ancient recipes and priceless treasures—how are they planning to scam people? Have you installed your anti-fraud apps?]

[A mess: Surely not? Brother Xian isn't short of money right now!]

……

The reactions in the live stream were mixed, but Ye Xian didn't explain much. He simply said, "I'll study this ancient cookbook carefully later. If possible, I'll try to recreate the famous dishes in it and show them to everyone."

"Haha, doesn't that mean we're in for a treat?"

Li Xin and Duan Fei exchanged a smile; Ye Xian's culinary skills were beyond question.

Sun Li suddenly appeared, staring at Ye Xian expectantly without saying a word. Ye Xian immediately understood her meaning: "Alright, you'll be the first to try the dishes."

Everyone laughed.

The fans in the live stream who were part of the late-night snack group all mocked the group leader for being a typical foodie.

Ye Xian carefully placed the cookbook into a box and handed it to Sun Li for safekeeping, instructing her to take a picture of each page for future reference.

Sun Li takes food very seriously. Hearing how much Ye Xian values ​​this book, she carefully held the box, afraid of breaking it.

After a long night of snacking, Li Xin and Duan Fei finally realized that this cookbook was no ordinary cookbook.

Ye Xian saw Sun Li take away the "Recipe Book" and was about to say something when he suddenly remembered that there were a few big V's in the other world, so he could replicate it.

As Qiuye Select has developed to its current stage, it needs to be further segmented.

I've neglected my foodie fans lately, so this cookbook is a good way to make up for it. I can replicate the content from Nanxiang and a certain Song. One is high-end and full of exploratory fun, while the other is popular but torturous. Luckily, I have a group of free laborers to use.

perfect.

Li Xin and Duan Fei's accounts have started to differentiate their content from their own accounts, so the products they promote must also be different from their own, because their fan demographics will be different.

Sun Li, being a foodie, could be packaged and made into an account like Li Zi or Jiu Yue, so that her fans would mainly be foodies, with emotional value as a secondary factor.

However, Sun Li's previous impression on everyone was a little different from that of Li Zi and Jiu Yue, so her account cannot be completely copied and needs to be different from theirs.

Aunt Qiu, well, never mind, I won't remake her account. She can put it here in her main account base camp for now. After all, the main account needs long-term maintenance, and I'm getting busier and busier, so I can't neglect it.

While pondering these plans, Ye Xian picked up his guitar and sang a few songs for everyone, then started talking about the song "I Remember".

"My mother is very strict with me. She has always paid great attention to my vocal training since I was a child. On the contrary, she is very tolerant of Qiuqing. As a result, Qiuqing is more talented than me and learns everything very quickly, which makes me very frustrated."

Indeed, a slow bird that wants to fly first must put in a lot of effort.

When my mother passed away, I didn't get to see her one last time. To be honest, I don't know if this is a misfortune or a blessing, because my mother's most beautiful image and voice will always remain in my memory, but I am also constantly tormented by the thought that I will never see her again.

Actually, this song is not only about remembering the mother, but also about remembering the father.

However, many times, it's hard to express my feelings for my father in words, so I can only put them into a song.

The song "I Remember" alone may not be enough to express my longing for my parents, so I wrote another one.

"Well, I won't sing this song for you today."
