“The two of them held a grudge against your grandfather and spread rumors about him.”
“No matter how much your grandfather tried to defend himself, it was useless.”
“Those two people with ulterior motives labeled him as a profiteer.”
“Your grandfather had lived a pure and innocent life, but he suffered injustice in his old age, which made your grandfather have extreme thoughts.”
Chen Yu sighed.
“Profiteer? Don’t tell me it’s a competitor who’s here to pick a fight.”
“People say that people of the same trade are enemies. These words are the truth.”
“If they were bullying my grandfather, I would definitely kill them.”
Seeing the chat speculating that it was their competitors coming to cause trouble, [Life’s Winner] was stunned.
Instinctively, he felt that this was impossible.
“My grandfather runs an old teahouse. There’s nothing else in it except tea and boiling water.”
“Those new teahouses are beautifully decorated, and the waiters are all beautiful ladies. My grandfather is the only one in our teahouse, and the customers are all old people.”
“It won’t create competitive pressure for other teahouses.”
At this moment, another fan sent a comment.
They suspected that it was done by a real estate developer.
“Everyone, stop making wild guesses. These two uninvited guests are neither competitors nor real estate developers.”
“Their identity is the same as mine. They are livestreamers.”
“To be precise, the two of them are review streamers.”
Chen Yu explained.
The chat was enlightened.
No wonder the two of them didn’t plan to pay after drinking tea.
In the past, there were only two types of people who could do such a thing.
The first type were those who deliberately looked for trouble.
The other type were those who had no money and wanted to eat for free.
As time passed, another type of person appeared.
Shop visiting livestreamers.
Livestreams spawned all kinds of streamers.
Some livestreamers sang and danced, while others streamed IRL.
The ones with the highest number of viewers were the review streamers.
Every time a new shop opened, any owner familiar with how to attract customers would invite a dozen or so streamers to promote their shop in various ways.
Maybe they could label themselves as shopowners who gave up their annual salary of hundreds of millions and returned to their hometown to open a fine gourmet restaurant.
Not to earn money but to make friends.
It would allow more people to taste the exquisite delicacies that they had carefully prepared.
Not all review streamers could receive promotional sponsors, but any influential store-visiting streamer could earn money just by lying down.
Those new streamers needed to find their own niche.
Among them, there was no lack of people who ate and drank, using the excuse of reviewing to eat for free.
They would tell the shop owners that they were reviewers and use the excuse of helping with publicity to eat and drink for free.
“Dr. Chen, is that so?”
[Life’s Winner] did not know much about these shop-reviewing streamers.
When he saw the various comments in the chat, his first impression was that the world was big and there were all kinds of strange things.
“That’s right.” Chen Yu nodded. “The two people who forced your grandfather to death are the latter.”
“When they heard that they could earn money by exploring shops, the couple bought some camera equipment and started exploring shops.”
“The woman will act as the streamer, and the man will be in charge of filming.”
“The two people who just entered the industry don’t know anything. They think that as long as they go to a shop and reveal their identities, the owners will sponsor them immediately.”
“After a few months, they didn’t get many orders and finally understood that it’s not that easy to be a reviewer.”
“Although they didn’t earn any money, the two of them have mastered the ability to eat and drink for free.”
“That day, the two of them went out to look for opportunities as usual. When they passed by your teahouse, they were thirsty and decided to go in for a free tea.”
“After drinking, the two of them will reveal their identities to your grandfather as usual.”
“They say that they’re streamers who review shops to increase publicity. No matter where she goes, she doesn’t have to pay.”
“Your grandfather is just like you. He doesn’t know what a shop-reviewing streamer is.”
“He thought the two of them didn’t have money, so he let it go.”
“The two of them felt that your grandfather was easy to talk to and had a new idea.”
“They keep pestering your grandfather and ask him to pay them a sponsor fee and guarantee that your family’s shop will become popular.”
Taking advantage of Chen Yu’s pause, [Life’s Winner] asked, “Is it because of this that my grandpa flew into a rage?”
“Not really.”
Chen Yu replied calmly.
“Your grandpa is getting on in years, so his hearing is a little bad.”
“I don’t know what a shop visiting host is. I’m confused about the whole process.”
“They thought that they didn’t have money to eat and wanted to help the shop. Your grandfather gave them 100 yuan.”
“The two of them were not satisfied with getting only 100 yuan and claimed that they were very influential shop scouts.”
“Usually, when they do promotions, they won’t bother if it’s less than 10,000 yuan.”
“Your teahouse is old, and your grandfather looks kind, so they only charged 5,000 yuan.”
“After the two of them kept talking, your grandfather finally understood and said that his teahouse did not need publicity.”
“The two of them are sure that your grandfather will be easy to bully. One of them will play the good cop and the other the bad cop.”
“They kept bragging about their influence while threatening your grandfather.”
“If he doesn’t get them to promote it, they’ll expose this shop.”
“Your grandfather was so annoyed that he gave them another 50 yuan.”
“The two of them were still not satisfied and started to record a video on the
spot.”
“Bang!”
[Life’s Winner] slammed his fist on the table.
This was a review; it was a robbery.
“A new method of blackmail in the Internet age.”
“My family owns a restaurant. A group of people came in and ate more than ten dishes. In the end, they asked me to pay for them. They said that they were big influencers and that if they posted a promotional video, my family’s business would become popular. I called the police directly.”
“666666.”
“These livestreamers are similar to gangsters.”
“Wouldn’t it be better to hang a sign at the entrance of my shop that forbids influencers and dogs from entering?”
“Influencers’ negative image is all thanks to this group of people.”
“If they’re really prominent influencers, it won’t be possible to hire them without a hundred or two hundred thousand yuan. These fake influencers eat and drink freely on the streets under the banner of reviewing shops.”
The chat was indignant.
They had seen shameless people before, but he had never seen such a shameless couple.
[Life’s Winner’s grandpa had already given them 150 yuan for nothing.
The old man had already done his best.
Not only did the two of them not leave, but they still wanted to shoot a negative review of the shop. This couple’s consciences had been eaten by dogs.
No one would be able to tolerate this kind of thing if it were anyone else.
Chen Yu continued, explaining that the couple criticized the teahouse in their video.
She then nitpicked and made an issue out of his family’s teacups and teapots.
[Life’s Winner] had a scary expression.
The tea cups and teapots used to serve customers in the shop had been used for decades.
There were tea stains in the teacup that could not be wiped off even with a steel ball.
The teapot was smoking every day, and there was a thick layer of black ash on the outside.
“The teacups and teapot were bought by your grandmother when she was still alive. To your grandfather, it’s a memory of his deceased wife.”
“The two of them framed your grandfather for never cleaning his wares, and the more they said, the more vicious they became.”
“This is the first time in your grandfather’s life that he lost his temper and chased them out.”
“After leaving, the two of them edited the video and posted it online with a
sensational title..”
