Punch: From third-rate anchor to top chef

Chapter 229

The squad leader walked to Li Xiao's side and waited for Li Xiao to end his ten-hour live broadcast.

Li Xiao glanced at the data in his live broadcast room. Even though it is 12 o'clock in the evening, since tomorrow is the weekend, there are almost no people who need to go to work, so there are still 12 people online.

The barrage did not decrease because Li Xiao was about to close the live broadcast room
"It's really awesome. I started watching it at 9 o'clock in the morning and watched it for 15 hours."

"The one upstairs looked like a true fan, so I couldn't do it anymore. I went to sleep halfway, and it was after 5 pm when I found out that the anchor was still broadcasting live. I guessed that he was about to end, so I continued to watch. Who would have known? Just see 12 o'clock in the evening."

"┭┮﹏┭┮, my rare day of vacation was stolen by the host, crying out of anger!!!"

"Today's luck is really great, we are the last table of guests received by the anchor."

"Although a small part of the dishes I ate today were made by the anchor, most of the dishes were made by the original chef team, and the quality is quite good. I highly recommend everyone to try it."

"This wave of conscientious recommendations is indeed very conscientious. Although the price is a bit too high for me, a poor migrant worker, it is still worthwhile to splurge once in a while."

Seeing that it was getting late, Li Xiao hurriedly greeted the audience, and then closed the live broadcast.

Seeing today's income displayed on the settlement interface, Li Xiao nodded in satisfaction.

The hard work of the day was not in vain. There are more people in the evening, so the rewards are even more violent than those in the morning. I received a total of 150 million rewards. There are 75.

Seeing that the live broadcast room fell into a black screen, the squad leader walked up to Li Xiao, with a grateful smile on his face.

"Thank you so much today. I originally asked you to come and help for two hours, but I didn't expect to be busy all day."

Li Xiao waved his hand and said with a smile

"Why are you being polite to me? I didn't see you saying that it was a waste of time to help me with tutoring? Besides, you just saw that the daily income is more than 70."

"As long as it is not exhausted on the spot, I am afraid that 99% of the people in the country are willing to be so tired!"

The squad leader looked at Li Xiao's back packing up the equipment, with a helpless expression on his face.

She knew that even if she offered to subsidize the publicity expenses, the other party would definitely not accept it.

After all, the 8 yuan I paid him in advance was used by the other party as a gift to the fans in the live broadcast room.

And looking at this posture, even if he gave it to him, the other party would definitely not accept it again.

She sighed softly, forget it, it's only a matter of tens of thousands of yuan.

It's not a lot to her or Li Xiao, so there's no need to retreat for such trivial matters.

After packing up your things, you touched your belly first, then smiled at the monitor and said,

"By the way, I know there's a crayfish shop nearby, why don't you go for a supper?"

You will be really hungry next time, eat extra dinner at 5 pm, and work continuously afterwards, it will be strange if you are not hungry for 7 hours.

The monitor shook his head with a smile
"No, eat more happily. It's been a busy day today. I want to go home early and put on a mask. Besides, I don't eat late at night."

Li Xiao didn't feel any embarrassment because of being rejected, he just asked casually, and the two exchanged a few words before leaving separately.

After getting in the car, Li Xiao had time to move his joints. Although his physical strength could continue to recover, the accumulated fatigue could not be fully recovered.

After working for more than ten hours in a row, I am indeed a little tired, but it is precisely because I am tired that I want to eat something good to reward myself.

Driving to the newly opened crayfish restaurant he saw on the Internet, Li Xiao was startled.

Due to the sufficient publicity, the pretty good location, and the opening discount, and it was still a Saturday night, when he came to this crayfish restaurant, there were already dozens of cars parked outside the door.

Through the closed car window, Li Xiao could feel the noise from around the lobster restaurant, with a smile on his face.

Although he has social anxiety, he does not reject this kind of lively atmosphere that does not affect him. On the contrary, during the day, he envies that other people can chat in such a lively manner in person. After all, the old saying goes well, the more you The more you lack something, the more envious you are.

Li Xiao didn't shrink back because of the crowd, there must be many people queuing up for good food, just like today's diners who waited for two or three hours without any complaints.

He has read a lot of reviews, and this lobster restaurant has no major shortcomings except that the price is a little higher, the queue is a little more crowded, and the service staff is a little less.

After parking the car, Li Xiao walked to the door, wanting to get a number from the waitress.

However, the waitress, who was already dizzy from work, was stunned when she saw Li Xiao, with an expression of disbelief on her face.

Then she raised the finger with red nail polish and pointed at Li Xiao.
Li Xiao was a little confused by her actions, so, does the other party think that she is jumping in line?

He was about to explain that he was just jumping the queue, and he just wanted to get a number and line up next to him.

Then he heard an exclamation from the mouth of the waitress

"Ahhhhh!!!"

Hearing this exclamation, Li Xiao quickly backed up a few steps, and at the same time raised his hands to signal that his hands did not touch the other party. He quickly raised his head and looked around, waiting for him to see a camera aimed at this place above the gate, Just breathed a sigh of relief.

I didn't touch this young lady just now. If the other party wanted to slander me, then I also have video evidence to prove my innocence.

He saw a piece of news on his browser two days ago. On a subway in Yangcheng, a girl claimed that a man next to him harassed her and secretly touched her thigh while the train was moving. .

However, the man firmly denied it, and finally called the police, and finally the security department came to deal with it.

In fact, such a case is very unfavorable to men, because it is difficult to explain clearly.

After all, not only were there a lot of people on the train, but the cameras couldn't capture the specific situation very well, because most of the actions were done quietly, but the man produced strong evidence.

In the man's mobile phone, there is a legal marriage certificate for homosexuality applied in other countries, as well as a large number of private photos of him and his 'other half'.

Although the officers of the security department were dumbfounded, they were immediately cleared of the man's suspicion of tampering.

At that time, Li Xiao's lips twitched when he saw the news. He had only heard of similar incidents in the Sakura Congress before, but he didn't expect such a situation to happen in Dahan Kingdom.

In Sakura China, once a woman complains that a man who is on the same train as her harassed her, as long as the man cannot produce evidence to prove that he has not done such a thing.

Then the man will die directly in society, and there is a high probability that he will be published in the local newspaper, and even worse, he will be fired directly by the company.

As a result, many girls use this as an excuse to blackmail men who look weaker, and these girls sometimes earn a day's illegal income even higher than the monthly salary of ordinary white-collar workers.

Li Xiao also thought that he had encountered this kind of Punch, he took two steps back again and again, and distanced himself a little from the other party.

However, after the other party exclaimed, what they said was not some indecent words, but a familiar name.

"You are? Are you Xiao Xiaoxiao's food anchor? I really like your live broadcast!! I was still watching you cook before going to work, you, you have already downloaded it??? You want to come over to eat Supper?"

The girl seemed to suddenly think of something, and quickly took out a small pink notebook the size of a palm from her apron. The girl bowed her head and handed the pink notebook and a signature pen to Li Xiao.

"I, I, I am your fan, I like you very much, I like watching your live broadcast, can you sign me?"

? ? ? ?
Li Xiao
Good guy, is it just a fan of myself?

Li Xiao felt that a layer of sweat had already oozed from his back, but today he had been busy all afternoon, and he didn't sweat so much.

The corner of his mouth twitched and he took the notebook from the other party's hand. After all, it was not the other party's fault that the other party scared him, but he just made up too much.

After signing your name quickly, you first hand the pink book back to the excited young lady with flushed face.

Enduring the strange gazes from the guests who were queuing up and talking about crayfish, Li Xiao quickly asked in a low voice,
"Okay, after signing the name, can you give me the number list?"

The girl subconsciously pressed a queuing sheet from the machine next to her, but the hand holding the queuing sheet stopped in mid-air. She quickly withdrew her hand that was stopped in mid-air, and glanced at the long line of equal numbers.

The young lady leaned close to Li Xiao and said in a low voice
"According to my experience, the team has to stand in line for at least an hour. I'm afraid it's already 2 o'clock in the morning when you want to eat crayfish. How about this? I'll go in and talk to our boss to see if I can give it to you." Do you have a seat?"

Li Xiao glanced at the time on his phone and it is now 12:30. If the food can only be served at 2 o'clock in the morning, it will take more than an hour. This time is indeed a bit long, but he still said politely
"This is not good?"

The young lady is obviously an old fritter, and it is obvious that Li Xiao is just being polite. Since she didn't directly refuse, she acquiesced.

I was overjoyed, I didn't expect that I could help my idol.

She quickly waved her hands and said in a low voice
"How come, a famous gourmet anchor like you comes to our store to eat crayfish, not to mention that there is no need to queue up, the boss probably doesn't even need to charge money."

Saying that, the young lady ran in quickly.

But in 2 minutes, a middle-aged man with a pot belly followed behind the young lady.

The man was in his early 30s, with protruding fat all over his face, and wearing a Tang suit that didn't fit well, but he kept a naive smile and looked very kind.

Seeing Li Xiao hastily stretched out his hand, he welcomed

"Hello, hello, this is the anchor of Xiao Xiaoxiao who loves food, I'm so honored, really honored."

"My wife recommended your live broadcast to me a few days ago, saying that you speak very well and are very professional."

"I want to invite you to come here to taste our crayfish and give some suggestions for improvement. I didn't expect you to come here in person today. It's such a coincidence. Pengpi Shenghui is really Pengpi Shenghui. Please come in quickly .”

People who were originally in line looked at a waiter. The young lady wanted to bring someone unknown to jump in the queue. Everyone was a little dissatisfied, and some young people wanted to reprimand them.

But before they could say anything, the boss actually came out to greet them in person, and his attitude was very respectful. Could it be that the other party is some kind of big shot?

After Li Xiao went in with the fat boss, some diners who were closer to the door approached the young lady who was caressing her pink notebook happily and asked

"Beauty asks you something, who is the one who went in just now?"

The young lady turned her eyes from her pink notebook to the faint figure of Li Xiao in the crowd.

She didn't say it directly, but turned on her mobile phone and clicked on the kitten live broadcast platform.

When she opened the food area, the person who asked the question gasped. He first pointed at the screen of the mobile phone, and then pointed at Li Xiao, who was no longer visible.

Li Xiao's live broadcast avatar is exactly his own, and the avatar has not been post-photographed, so the diner recognized him at a glance.

At this time, the interface of the mobile phone was still at the top of the popularity list in the kitten live food area. This list was only updated at 2 am every day, so the number one on the list today was still Li Xiao.

The man took a slight breath. As a young man in the new era, there is no kitten live broadcast on his mobile phone, and there is no topic to chat with the friends next to him.

However, he usually doesn't like to watch food, and usually only wanders in the room where the good-looking young ladies sing and dance, or the rooms of those boring game anchors.

So he didn't know Li Xiao at all, but he also understood why the young lady and the boss in front of him were so happy.

After all, Kitten Live is the largest live broadcast platform in the country, and the TOP1 most popular food area in the store is indeed worthy of the word "fantastic brilliance"

I know, even if the other party does not start the live broadcast, they just casually send a message in the background saying that they had a delicious meal of crayfish at [Shiyue Siege] today.

It is estimated that the business here will increase by at least [-]-[-]% tomorrow, and as long as this news is not replaced by other news, the advertisement will continue to be effective.

The other party started this live broadcast directly, and I am afraid that if you eat supper here, the effect will be very explosive, and the turnover here may increase by half tomorrow.

And the effect will last for a long time. After all, the live broadcast on the kitten platform has a playback function. Some fans will browse the previous live broadcast content when their anchor is not on the air. As long as it is played once, it is an advertisement. Of course It's a crushing blow every time it's played, if not tasty.

Li Xiao followed the boss to a table for two, and the seat was quite good.

I don't know how the other party vacated such a vacant seat for myself when the room was full.

The right side of the table is a floor-to-ceiling window, and you can see the beautiful scenery of the riverside full of colorful lights. Although the colorful lights on the Internet are also quite good, the scenery during the day should be more beautiful. The left side of the table is a semi-open back kitchen.

The chefs inside are busy in full swing, and all of them are sweating profusely in short-sleeved clothes in the winter.

Seeing such a situation, Li Xiao complained secretly, it seems that the air conditioner in the back kitchen is not strong enough.

He also understands that with such a good business situation, even if a few central air conditioners are installed in the back kitchen, there may be no way to keep the chefs in the back kitchen from sweating profusely.

After all, the temperature of the high-temperature stove is too high, and the air conditioner can't lower the temperature at all.

The fat boss skillfully took out a menu, all of which were densely packed with dishes from this side.

Li Xiao glanced at it and couldn't help raising his eyebrows. Good guy, there are quite a lot of food here, but he has read the food reviews here before.

The main thing here is crayfish, and other barbecues, pasta, snacks, and stir-fried dishes are just extras. Although they are not bad, they are not too brilliant.

He came here today to have a good meal, to fill his stomach, and to relieve his mood after a tiring day.

He quickly glanced at the menu, and finally decided what he wanted to order.

"[Braised crayfish in oil], [Thirteen-flavored crayfish], [Basil crayfish], [Steamed crayfish], [Iced crayfish]"

"Just one catty of each of these five kinds of crayfish is enough, and the others are unnecessary, thank you."

Seeing that the smile on the boss's face remained unchanged, he quickly took the menu and nodded again and again.
"Okay, okay, do you want something else besides these? Would you like something to drink?"

Li Xiao waved his hand, he just looked at it, there are indeed drinks on the menu here, but most of them are drinks, and he came here by car.

As a big Han country, a good citizen with three possessions, and now he is still half a public figure, how can he take the lead in such a dangerous thing as drunk driving?

Li Xiao took out his mobile phone and skillfully took a picture of the payment code. Just as he was about to enter the amount, a fat hand stretched out from the side, blocking Li Xiao's sight.

Li Xiao followed his fat hand and looked at his master with a puzzled expression on his face
"This is?"

He didn't quite understand why the other party blocked his payment?
The fat boss quickly withdrew his hand, afraid that the other party might misunderstand, he poked his hand, and the smile on his face became even more obscene. He leaned over to Li Xiao and whispered,
"It's like this. As the saying goes, it's better to meet by chance than to invite each other. You see, everyone is so destined. There are thousands of late-night snack bars in Dongguan, and Mr. Li can only choose us."

"It proves that our fate is not shallow. I wonder if Mr. Li Xiao is interested in hosting a live broadcast tonight? It doesn't take long for an hour, or an hour is enough. The price is easy to negotiate. The main purpose is to help promote our new store."

After listening to the fat boss's words, Li Xiao showed a suddenly realized expression, that's why.

No wonder the other party's smile is so wretched, it turns out that there is something to ask for.

However, I have been live broadcasting for more than ten hours, let alone the audience in the live broadcast room, even I am a little tired of live broadcasting. Even if I agree to the request of the other party, I am afraid that the live broadcast effect may not be satisfactory.

What's more, he didn't take over the commercial promotion after he obtained the system, and he only helped his relatives and friends to promote it. He didn't want to make an exception for a guy he didn't know. If there was any problem with the other party, it would be a mess own signboard.
