Chapter 6 Crazy Snatching!
Ning Yunyi had previously always finished his live broadcast by serving rice. This time, as he still needed to put the flavors on the shelf, he served the rice first.
After placing the two bowls of rice, he saw a flood of inquiries about what it was. He replied, "This is rice, it's not going on the shelf. It has no flavor, it's the staple food, the side dishes."
After saying that, he directly blocked the barrage, went to the page to put the flavors on the shelf, and arranged the pre-portioned sample.
There were four dishes in total, each with only a little bit, kind of like restaurant sample dishes, to prevent any problems in subsequent testing.
After arranging them, Ning Yunyi opened the scanner.
He was quite curious about this high-tech thing, after all, it could analyze the food's flavor molecules and then re-combine them, convenient and useful.
Of course, it could also bring in some extra income.
After the flavor scanning and uploading was done, Ning Yunyi directly exited, said the live broadcast was over, and see you tomorrow, then left the live room.
Four dishes, one flavor for ten people, one hundred stars per person, and with him saying they were synthetic, probably not many people would buy.
Either way, he had received so many tips that he didn't mind.
Because he had said they were synthetic in the beginning, this time the tips weren't too much, but also not little, several thousand stars.
He directly withdrew the over seventy thousand stars he could extract.
He had received over a hundred thousand tips in total, with seventy percent as the original amount, which was close to a hundred thousand, after paying the tax, he had over seventy thousand left.
Practically an overnight millionaire.
Ning Yunyi withdrew the money to his virtual ID account, confirmed the deposit, then closed the [Star Broadcast].
As soon as he looked up, he saw the little kitten had already recovered its human form, properly dressed, obediently arranging the chopsticks and spoon, standing by the table, eagerly looking at him.
Ning Yunyi strode over, scooped up the little kitten, kissed it, and put it on a chair not too far away, smiling and saying, "Let's eat!"
On the other side, the crowd watching the blackened live broadcast were wailing mournfully.
The next moment, they couldn't help but be filled with excitement, looking at the suddenly appearing [Flavors Being Put on Shelf (0/4) [Progress Bar]].
"Ah ah ah, I don't know what flavor it is, I'm curious!"
"It must be flavorless, though the color looks good, but the host said it's synthetic, right? Synthetic products are rare but not hard to get, we've only seen the host cooking, we haven't seen him eat, so it must not be edible."
"This host knows it's flavorless but still puts it on the shelf? One hundred stars per flavor, is this just grabbing money?"
"What nonsense are you talking about earlier? It was us who requested the flavors to be put on the shelf, and that nutrition spray thing that dares to sell for a thousand, one hundred is not grabbing at all? Do you have the right to tell us what to do?"
"Hehe, if you want to be suckers, go ahead. When you requested the flavors, the host hadn't said they were all synthetic yet, right?"
"I'm willing to buy the synthetic ones!"
"I'm not, after all, it's one hundred stars, even if it's just to look at the synthetic one, that's enough."
"Yes, yes, yes, I won't buy either, whoever buys is a sucker."
The endless unwillingness to buy made the ones who had initially said it was money-grabbing excited, wishing this live broadcast would just stay black forever!
However, as the progress bar for putting the flavors on the shelf was completed, the ones waiting for the host to put the flavors on the shelf couldn't sell a single one. As soon as it was successful, in the blink of an eye, an automatic barrage popped up: [Sold Out].
That person: ???
The live broadcast paused for a moment, then the next moment, a barrage of curses poured out, they were all furious.
"Fuck, you're all newbies!! Didn't you say you wouldn't buy any? In a second!! You have no conscience!"
"Woo woo woo, we're all star people, how can you have no morals!"
"Shameless!"
"Haha, I was quick! I snatched a pan-fried tofu, hehe hehe, even if it has no flavor, I still want to smell it, hehe hehe, one hundred stars won't make me lose or be taken advantage of, I just want to buy it to see what this synthetic stir-fry tastes like."
An Dong was a rich second-generation living on the main planet, his family had some assets, one hundred stars was just a drop in the bucket to him.
He was also attracted by the ancient Blue Star cuisine that had been all over the Star Network yesterday.
The excerpt was so fragrant, at the time he was completely disappointed in any nutrition spray, normally his family would also buy various ingredients, but the food turned out just average.
This time, with a curious mentality, he came to the live broadcast, but heard the host say it was synthetic, and was instantly disappointed.
He had eaten synthetic products at star restaurants before, they indeed only had the form, with no taste at all, not even as good as nutrition sprays.
The so-called synthetic was made from nutrition sprays into block-shaped objects, then made into similar shapes according to ancient Blue Star ingredients, and finally made into a dish that only looked like the original but tasted like nutrition sprays.
Because it was too fancy, in the end, when eaten, it was still the taste of nutrition sprays, so it didn't really take off, it was very niche.
An Dong had eaten a lot of synthetic foods, the taste was too bland.
But he was still bewitched by the visual impact of the host's cooking, mumbling that whoever was stupid enough to buy, he would buy. But the speed of his hands was very fast, as soon as it was on the shelf, he immediately clicked.
He was muttering that he was just trying it out, but unexpectedly, his luck was so good, four dishes, 40 spots, in a live broadcast with 40,000 people online, he actually snatched one.
He had originally thought no one would buy, but...looking at the one-second sellout popping out.
An Dong was silent.
He stared at the [1] that appeared in the background, curious, and clicked in, there was a gift box-like thing.
His phone was the latest model, able to identify flavors, so he wasn't worried about buying in vain.
His fingers rested on the gift button, his heartbeat inexplicably quickened, he couldn't tell if it was anticipation or fear of disappointment.
Knowing the result, he still couldn't help but want to try it.
He closed his eyes and clicked, almost at the same time, a domineering, unfamiliar, never-before-smelled fragrance came. Because it was a hot, freshly scanned upload, even though An Dong was the fourth to snatch the pan-fried tofu, the flavor was only sixty percent of the original, but he was still captivated by the pan-fried tofu's aroma.
He smelled the aroma of the oil, but unlike the roasted various meats, it was another kind of extremely alluring fragrance he had never smelled before, especially with several other flavors mixed in. He couldn't help but lean in closer, until the cold touch of his wristband made him suddenly wake up.
Opening his eyes, he found it was his own wristband.
The flavor was only for a moment, until the end when it dispersed, he still couldn't help but sniff around, until he really couldn't smell it anymore, then he slumped on the sofa, lying there staring up at the ceiling, as if he had been drained of strength.
At the same time, his spirit was particularly good, clear-headed, even feeling that his brain was clearer than ever.
The moist mouth made his Adam's apple roll unconsciously, and the only thought in his brain was, is this a real existing flavor? How can it be so fragrant, so good-smelling, he wanted to swallow his tongue?
But there was only the flavor... he wished he could immediately follow the scent and dive in to taste what delicious food could emit such a fragrance.
Moreover, this was only sixty percent of the flavor, how intense would the hundred percent flavor be? Not to mention, there were other flavors!
An Dong thought of something and suddenly sat up.
The same scene happened to the other people who had snatched it.
Those who didn't snatch it were anxiously howling.
"How come no one is giving feedback on what the flavor is? How is it, really no flavor at all?"
"Yeah, where did the ones who snatched it go, there were 40 of them."
"I smelled it, not good, no flavor at all. If you snatched it but haven't had a chance to smell it yet, you can sell it to me, I'm willing to buy it for 500 stars per dish."
"????"
"Wow, wow! Seeing the first half I thought it was real, if you don't collect at a high price, I'll actually believe you're an old six."
"Five times the price? My goodness, how fragrant, more fragrant than perfume?"
"I'm willing to buy for two thousand stars, if anyone hasn't smelled it yet, you can private message me to trade."
"Me me me, three thousand stars, sell it all to me!!"
"Me, ten thousand!!"
The crowd was dumbfounded watching this scene, goodness, how fragrant must it be?
This was a one-time flavor!
They've all gone crazy?
At the same time, in a room at the Main Planet Research Institute, ten men and women were sitting in a circle, with a small old man at the top, squinting his eyes and sternly surveying the circle: "Did anyone snatch one?"
Closest to the old Director Yuan was the senior disciple Luke, he glanced at the master furtively, and shook his head in the old man's expectant gaze: "There were too many people, I, I didn't snatch any."
Director Yuan suddenly took a sharp breath, clutching his chest with a trembling finger pointing at him: "What good are you?! You couldn't even snatch one!!"
The others also shrank their necks, not daring to meet the master's eyes.
Among so many of them, not a single one snatched one, especially thinking about how they had seen the master become excited and trembling the moment the host served the rice. They had been standing around then, not daring to move, afraid the master would just keel over right then.
Fortunately, the master turned his head the next moment, the old man had never been so excited and determined, his eyes glowing red, earnestly instructing them that they must snatch one at all costs in the end!
The crowd were on the verge of tears, this was not something they could just say they would snatch and then do it, they had never used this thing before, in the past they only did research, and had never had the urge to snatch any flavor, perfume or nutrition spray.
But the master's order, who dared not to listen?
But even with the heart, snatching 40 spots from 40,000 online, they still failed.
Director Yuan stared disappointedly at one by one, judging from their shrinking necks and unwillingness to look up, he knew the answer, pounding his chest and stomping his feet, wishing he could immediately rush out and vent his anger, when it was crucial they used them, the results were that none of them were any good!
Just then, the little disciple tucked in the corner, who had just entered the institute a few months ago and was usually unnoticeable, weakly raised his hand: "Mas-master... I snatched one." Probably scared by the eerie atmosphere around, the little disciple's voice was cracking, getting softer and softer towards the end.
But at the same time, everyone looked at him.
The little disciple was even more flustered: "It's, it's true..."
Thinking they wouldn't believe him, the next moment he was swarmed by them. After a while of chaos, the little disciple's hair was disheveled, his clothes wrinkled, and he blankly looked at the empty wristband in his hand, bewildered: ???
Director Yuan, instead of the previous anguished chest-beating and foot-stomping, held his head high like a proud rooster, took a deep breath, looking at the crowd all taking notes: "Is everyone ready?"
The people in the live broadcast believed the host when he said it was synthetic, but Director Yuan didn't believe it, synthetic also needed a reference picture, and most of those ancient Blue Star rare species manuscripts were here in their Blue Star. Even if it was synthetic, they would have to get the picture of the appearance first, right? Moreover, it was so lifelike, he didn't believe it!
He was eager to verify it, especially thinking about the last thing he saw, the whitish granular substance.
If he didn't see wrong, that was...the processed rice of an extinct species on Blue Star!!
If the flavor they recorded was real, then the rice was also real!
That was an extinct species.
Luke trembled, under the serious and earnest gaze of the master and the fellow disciples, he clicked open the [1].
