Food: Randomly set up stalls, even the little guy is drooling.

"What?" Liang Tao was taken aback. "Sold out? Come back tomorrow? Aren't we in a queue?"

The elementary school student was quite patient and explained to him, "Today, Boss Lu only prepared 250 servings of fried chicken cutlets, with a limit of 2 servings per person. I asked everyone, and this uncle just happened to have sold out."

Seeing Liang Tao still standing there in a daze, the elementary school student added, "You definitely need to calculate carefully, otherwise when it's your turn and there's no chicken cutlet left, wouldn't you have come for nothing?"

"What should we do, Brother Tao?" Zhang Jiahao scratched his head. "Oh dear, my girlfriend asked me to bring her one."

Liang Tao rolled his eyes at him, thinking to himself, "As a food blogger, it would be a huge loss if I didn't buy anything. You came early, didn't you know you should have lined up earlier?"

He thought this to himself, but he couldn't say it aloud. He still had to comfort the fan, "It's okay, there are so many people ahead of us, just ask if anyone is willing to sell their account, right?"

"It has to be you, Brother Tao!" Zhang Jiahao became excited again. "Just buy one account, Brother Tao, I'll get it for my girlfriend."

"..." Liang Tao was truly at a loss now. "Alright! Let's not talk about these formalities for now. You start asking from the back, and I'll go to the front."

Liang Tao was initially a little annoyed, but the more he thought about it, the more he felt that it was all worth it.

He wasn't really there to eat fried chicken cutlets; he just wanted to create a good show effect.

This is what program effect is all about.

The opening was full of contrast, and now it's so popular that it's hard to get a seat in a row. There are so many things to watch.

"Let's go, stop them and start interviewing!" Liang Tao led his assistant Xiao Chen to the front.

Just then, a short-haired girl wearing a mask bought a fried chicken cutlet.

"Hello, miss!" Liang Tao stepped in front of her.

When the short-haired girl saw someone stopping her, she quickly held the chicken cutlet in her hand in front of her, saying, "Not for sale!"

As Liang Tao walked to the front, he noticed many people standing nearby, just like him, wanting to spend money to buy a number.

I knew this girl had misunderstood.

He quickly explained, "Miss, please don't misunderstand, I'm a Douyin (TikTok) food review blogger..."

"You are...?" The girl looked at him with a puzzled expression, then her eyes lit up with surprise as she called out his online name, "Atao, the Shop Explorer?!"

"Yes, yes, yes!" Liang Tao didn't expect to run into fans here. "Excuse me for bothering you, I'm not here to buy chicken cutlets, I just wanted to interview you."

"Oh, no problem, no problem." The short-haired girl readily agreed to the interview. "Hello, Brother Tao, my name is Jiang Libai."

Liang Tao spoke candidly in front of the camera, "Hello Pear Blossom, a fan of mine told me today that the snacks here are especially delicious. Wow, is that fried chicken cutlet you're holding? It smells so good!"

Jiang Libai said, "Yes, this fried chicken cutlet smells especially good. I resisted for a few days, but I finally decided to buy some today."

Liang Tao gestured for the camera to follow, "Mind if I film you?"

"Okay." Jiang Libai opened the chicken cutlet that was protecting her.

Liang Tao took a deep breath, and the aroma was so enticing that it made his mouth water.

"It smells so good!" Jiang Libai was also captivated by the aroma of the chicken cutlet.

Just as Liang Tao was about to continue asking questions, a girl with a ponytail walked over.

"Li Bai?" Even though Jiang Li Bai was wearing a mask, the girl with the ponytail still recognized her friend and pointed at the fried chicken cutlet in her hand with a surprised look. "Didn't you say that even if you starved to death or jumped off a building from the gym, you wouldn't eat this fried chicken cutlet?"

The moment Jiang Libai saw her friend, only two words came to mind: "So stupid!"

Before Liang Tao could ask any more questions, he took off running, shouting as he ran, "You've mistaken me for someone else!"

The girl with the ponytail quickly chased after him, saying, "I'd recognize you even if you turned to ashes. I'm late today, so please share half with me."

Liang Tao was left standing alone, bewildered in the wind. "It seems this chicken cutlet is really delicious. Let's go interview the next customer."

But as they asked around, not a single person agreed to sell their account.

Liang Tao was initially skeptical, but now the facts were laid bare before him: this fried chicken shop probably really did have something special.

A full half hour passed, and the line had shrunk by almost half, but he had made no progress whatsoever.

As a food blogger, if he doesn't even taste the food, what kind of food blogger is he supposed to be exploring?

Looking at Zhang Jiahao walking dejectedly towards them from not far away, it goes without saying that his progress is also at 0.

"Brother Tao, did you know that there are so many resellers queuing up here? Some are 50 yuan, some are 80 yuan, and the most expensive ones are even 100 yuan! They just queue for half an hour and make a net profit of 100 yuan." Zhang Jiahao inquired about information that Liang Tao already knew.

Liang Tao said helplessly, "Don't even mention 100, I'd buy one even if it cost 200!"

Liang Tao has invested time and effort here today; if he doesn't try the chicken cutlet, all the previous materials will be wasted.

He felt that if this episode was produced, it would definitely become a minor hit.

"Really 200?" The fragrance wafted from behind.

Liang Tao turned around and saw that it was the same elementary school student from before, who was still holding a piece of fried chicken and eating it.

Liang Tao asked, "You want to sell it? What's the child's name?"

The elementary school student held out a greasy hand and said, "My name is Zhang Zixuan. Uncle, I only have this one piece of fried chicken here. If you want it, I can sell you half."

Liang Tao's eye twitched visibly. What a ruthless elementary school student.

He took a deep breath, calmed his turbulent inner world, and took out a large red banknote from his wallet.

Elementary school student Zhang Zixuan readily accepted the money, grabbed the plastic bag with one hand, tore off half of the chicken cutlet with the other, and handed it to Liang Tao, saying, "Uncle, I haven't touched this half yet, thank you for your patronage."

Despite the twists and turns, Liang Tao finally managed to buy half a fried chicken cutlet for 100 yuan.

Facing the camera, Liang Tao took a bite.

Who knows how long he endured it, having his assistant Xiao Chen find a good camera position to capture the queue, to make sure the fried chicken cutlet in his hand looked good, and to ensure the lighting was perfect. Most importantly, Tao Ge had to eat elegantly.

Just smelling this aroma made Liang Tao's mouth water.

One bite, and the urge to eat more arose.

In the year since he started being a food blogger, he has actually forgotten what hunger feels like because he is always eating.

But at that moment, he felt as if his stomach had been opened, and hunger kept rising.

"I feel like I could eat a whole pig in three bites." This was Liang Tao's inner monologue. It was the ultimate crispiness, so delicate it seemed like it could be broken with a touch; the ultimate tenderness, so juicy and delicious. How could this be the experience that one, no, half a piece of fried chicken cutlet could give me?

For the first time, Liang Tao unabashedly devoured a chicken cutlet in front of the camera.

Finally, he licked his fingers, still wanting more.

Xiao Chen, standing nearby, paused for a moment, then reminded him, "Brother Tao, you seem to have forgotten..."

Liang Tao felt a surge of nervousness. "I've already finished eating. You didn't turn your phone on, did you?"

Assistant Xiao Chen replied, "You just ate. Usually, you introduce things while you're eating."

Liang Tao laughed and patted his assistant on the shoulder, "Hurry back, we need to work overtime tonight. We have to release some porn late at night!"

Assistant Xiao Chen rolled her eyes helplessly. Who understands the hardships of working people?
