"This is so delicious!" Han Caiwei exclaimed in her heart. She loved food. In the past, her favorite thing was to go to the streets and alleys to find more niche delicacies. She also believed that true deliciousness had to be found and felt with heart.

But after searching for a long time, she found that while there might be some pleasant surprises, the actual delicious food she could taste was very limited.

It's not like she's never eaten steamed buns before.

But how can a steamed bun be made so delicious!

"Boss, two more, please!" Han Caiwei said, still wanting more.

Lu Feng responded in a formulaic manner, "Sorry, the limit is two purchases per person."

He already understood why the system did this; if there were no purchase restrictions, this challenge would be no problem for him at all.

But the system might not understand one thing: there is something called scarcity marketing.

Han Caiwei immediately gritted her teeth and roared like a cat, "Zhong Minhui!"

Chung Man-wai smiled sheepishly, "Don't you still have a few friends at the bar...?"

Han Caiwei's eyes lit up, but she also felt that the conversation seemed familiar.

"Sisters, come out quickly! There's something super amazing at the southernmost part of Fisherman's Wharf. You'll regret it if you don't come!"

……

Wang Hai is as his name suggests; he has a vast capacity for generosity.

He and his friend Kang Yan finished their barbecue by the river and strolled along, enjoying the river breeze. They felt very relaxed and happy.

It was getting late, so they slowly walked out of the barbecue street.

"Pfft..." Just as Wang Hai was about to say goodbye, he suddenly heard Kang Yan chuckle.

"What are you laughing at? It's so ridiculous!"

Kang Yan pointed to the distance and laughed, "Look, look, there's still something going for them these days. Even a small steamed bun stall is trying to emulate bars by hiring beautiful women as escorts."

"Look at that girl, eating her steamed bun like a monkey. There aren't many people here, who is she putting on this show for?"

Wang Hai looked in the direction he was pointing and saw several pretty girls gathered around a steamed bun stall eating steamed buns.

He said speechlessly, "What kind of steamed bun stall can hire so many shills? They're probably just hungry."

Kang Yan retorted, "You have no idea how sophisticated the tricks of businesses are these days. They exploit people's herd mentality to pique your curiosity, make you watch, and then make you unable to resist spending money."

As Kang Yan spoke, he leaned closer, and upon closer inspection, he laughed even harder. "Look, look! Steamed buns for 10 yuan each! And cornbread for 50 yuan each! It's this bizarre thing that makes you curious and irresistible to try them!"

Wang Hai finally understood; this signboard completely shattered his preconceived notions.

Who sells steamed buns for 10 yuan each at a steamed bun stall? That's such a low-level scam.

Wang Hai couldn't help but laugh, "Haha, no one's going to fall for that, right?"

Kang Yan suddenly asked, "Can you smell a fragrance?"

Wang Hai had drunk too much and his senses were a bit dulled. When he heard Kang Yan say that, he quickly sniffed the air with his nose and said, "You know what, it smells really good."

This aroma, isn't it coming from the steamed bun shop?

The two of them still went over.

"Boss, these steamed buns are really 10 yuan each."

Lu Feng watched with a smile as the girls wolfed down their steamed buns. Hadn't that opened up the situation?

Upon hearing someone ask a question, Lu Feng thought to himself, "Finally, someone has come to see the signboard in advance."

He replied, "Our steamed buns use hind leg meat from free-range pigs that have been raised for a year for their meat buns, and fresh organic vegetables air-freighted from 1500 meters above sea level for our vegetable buns. They are absolutely great value for money!"

Han Caiwei, who was standing to the side, swallowed the last bite and licked her fingers. "No wonder your buns are so delicious, boss. Not only is your skill good, but the ingredients are also so good! When I eat this vegetable bun, I feel like I am in the deep mountains with my eyes closed."

Kang Yan sneered, "Keep pretending. You're hallucinating from eating a steamed bun? Acting this well, how much does the boss pay you?"

Han Caiwei was baffled by the retort. "Who are you? These buns are really delicious! A hundred times better than the Maobuli buns I had in Beijing! Boss, next time sell them for 20, just in case some people look down on you!"

"You..." Kang Yan didn't expect the girl in front of him to be so good at talking back.

"What do you mean, 'you'? I was just a shill, wasn't I?" Han Caiwei had just tricked a few of her girlfriends into coming over, and after one of them was priced out due to purchase restrictions, they were still blaming her.

"Boss, can I use his credit limit?" Han Caiwei's eyes lit up. Hehe, Hua Sheng had found a blind spot. Who said you have to find someone you know? This boss's rules are strange, but there are still loopholes.

"Okay." Lu Feng looked at her strangely. How to put it? You could only say that the creativity of the masses is endless.

Han Caiwei said to Kang Yan, who looked completely bewildered, "I'll buy two now. I'll keep one and give you one. If you don't like it, it's on me. If you do, you can pay the full amount, okay?"

Kang Yan was even more stunned. No charge if it's not delicious? What a great deal! He thought to himself, even if it is delicious, I can just deny it to the death.

Han Caiwei continued to provoke, "What, a grown man like you, dare to bet?"

Whether he wanted to take advantage of her or not, he just couldn't stand the girl's arrogant attitude.

Suppress them! We must suppress them!

Kang Yan retorted defiantly, "You're the one who'll suffer. What's there to be afraid of?"

"Hey boss, give me a meat bun and a vegetable bun." Han Caiwei handed one to Kang Yan and the other to her friend who was still a little resentful. Although she was full, the sister she had tricked into coming over hadn't eaten yet.

Kang Yan took a deep breath through his nose; it smelled quite nice. He couldn't help but sigh and glanced at Lu Feng.

This boss has the skills, but instead of taking the legitimate path, he insists on taking this crooked and unethical route.

It seems that only I, the embodiment of justice and fairness, can expose your hypocritical mask!

He took a bite, and the instant his taste buds blossomed made him forget that even if it tasted good, he had to pretend it didn't.

"Holy crap! This is so delicious! Is this really a steamed bun?" Kang Yan's extremely surprised expression left Wang Hai dumbfounded.

This guy is so stupid! He was just saying it was a trap, and then he walked right into it.

At times like this, even if it tastes good, you have to put down that arrogant attitude!

Wang Hai looked at Kang Yan with a disappointed expression.

Seeing Kang Yan's blissful expression, Han Caiwei couldn't help but laugh. "Quickly, pay up!"

Wang Hai glanced at his friend speechlessly, "Do you have to be so exaggerated?"

Kang Yan was still eating heartily. "You wouldn't understand even if I told you. Just eat one and you'll see."

For a fleeting moment, Wang Hai felt that this was a trap, and Kang Yan was part of it.

He had long heard that some sophisticated scams use people close to you, making it impossible for you to take precautions, and by the time you discover it, it's too late.

But he, Wang Hai, is the boss's real target.

But is it really necessary to go to such lengths just to eat a steamed bun?

Wang Hai felt that he had let his imagination run wild.

"Alright, boss, I'll pay for both together, and two more, please." Wang Hai generously paid the bill.

It's only about forty yuan, so consider it a loss.

As the saying goes, you get fooled every day, and each time it's a different story.

But after just one bite of that steamed bun...

He cried out in his heart, "I want to be a shill too!"
