Chapter 1222: Selling Spinach [Bullet Comments Inundation, Double-Length Chapter]
The audience talked in the chat, while Qiaoqiao spoke on his side.
The former was dazzling, the latter was steady. No matter how many people were shouting for links in the comments, Qiaoqiao remained patient, starting with spinach.
"Hey kids, today's sale is spinach from the field. My sister said this is a very old variety, called ground spinach, which is different from what's sold in supermarkets."
"Because the leaves lie on the ground, they can get dirty and dusty, so those who don't like it don't have to buy it."
"Also, although these ground spinach leaves look old and dark, when blanched in water, they're tender, sweet, and way tastier than they look."
Having been idle over winter break and now back as a teacher, Qiaoqiao felt a bit awkward, even discussing spinach.
But no worries, his fans didn't focus on his tone. Rather, it was—
[Put the link up!]
[Oh, I don't want to hear, I don't want to know, I just want to eat! Put the link up, Baobao.]
[Ahhh, hurry up, I've been waiting in the bathroom for over ten minutes!]
[I just love ground spinach!]
[Huh? Why are there so many people in this live stream? Selling ground spinach? I also like this! Waiting]
Lines of comments flashed by, and Qiaoqiao adjusted his phone, first zooming in on the spinach, then setting it back.
At that moment, the camera caught the security team members who had just arrived for harvesting tasks from afar.
Being far away, their faces couldn't be seen, just a dozen figures standing tall, each carrying a stool in one hand and basket in the other, dressed in mismatched clothes but somehow still orderly entering the vegetable field.
It was Song Tan's first time recruiting so many employees for home duties, so he lacked experience and hadn't prepared uniforms. Everyone wore their own old clothes.
Yet this ordinary attire managed to attract everyone's attention in the live stream from afar—
[Hey... Off-topic, but does anyone else think the spinach pickers look quite classy?]
[+1, even though their clothes seem pretty plain, from a distance, they look like one cohesive whole... really setting the vibe.]
[Weird, they used to hire aunties and grannies from the village for picking, and their gossip was interesting. How come it's all young guys now?]
As more people noticed this, attention shifted to Chen Yuan and others sitting on stools, adeptly digging up spinach.
They sat on small stools in old clothes, with baskets placed nearby.
Then just slightly raising their arms, aiming the shovel at the spinach roots, they smoothly dug forward, lifting entire spinach plants.
It seemed effortless, but in the live stream, their synchronized movements, almost identical angles, created a striking sense of order.
[I don't know what to say, but watching them dig spinach is unexpectedly soothing.]
[Why am I sleepy...]
[Who gets the value in digging spinach like this! OCD delight!]
[Teacher Qiaoqiao! Could you zoom in a little? I want a closer view to be hypnotized to sleep.]
Teacher Qiaoqiao remained unmoved, feeling he'd explained all the spinach's features, so he loudly announced the price:
"My sister wishes everyone a Happy New Year, 20 yuan per pound with free shipping."
"After purchase, we'll dig it up here in the field, weigh it, and send it—there'll be a bit of dirt, but we'll also give a little extra weight."
"Because this spinach is so cheap, everyone can only buy one pound."
After thinking it over carefully, having mentioned price and purchase limits, he nodded in satisfaction: "Alright, kids, it's up for sale!"
Little did he know the live stream blew up again.
[What does that mean? We've just celebrated the New Year, underestimating my red envelope money? Why limit purchases!]
[Waaah, 20 for spinach, with free shipping, and you still sell it, honestly a great deal...]
[Teacher Qiaoqiao, you're too kind to us]
[Exactly, free shipping too!]
[Buy buy buy buy buy buy buy buy buy buy...]
[Please, no purchase limits, Baobao!]
[Teacher Qiaoqiao, look, the entire field is full of lush green spinach!]
[Yes! Why limit purchases? Just sell it all!]
[Purchase limits are good, purchase limits are good, being the Unlucky Person, grabbing goods in live streams always makes me part of the useless denominator.]
[Finally limited purchases, shouldn't mind me as an extra numerator... Ahhh, how did it just go up directly!]
