Yin Lian told Yin Huai that she was going to make a food map. No matter whether she meant it when she said it, but now that she said it, she would make up the lie. Super fast and stable novel update, this article was first published by
This is one of the most basic qualities that Yin Lian believes a successful person should possess.
It's not about practicing what you say, but an attitude of being responsible for what you say. There are things you can't do, but don't act like you didn't intend to do them in the first place.
So from the first day she went out to explore desserts, she opened a Weibo account for herself. Weibo uploaded pictures of the day’s food and also opened a story section.
There are too many Weibo blogs about food. If you just make a food blog, it is not unusual at all, and it is difficult to attract enough attention, so Yin Lian chose a more special angle to do it.
The name of her Weibo is "The Love of Chinese Food and Food", and the main content of her Weibo is to start from history and explain what modern Western pastries would be liked by famous people in history.
Quite ridiculous, right?
But it has to be pulled to attract attention.
Of course, Yin Lian's content was not all nonsense - she studied history in her previous life, and she was very good at it. Although her purpose of learning history is very impure, it does not prevent her from accumulating a relatively deep historical knowledge.
She can really tell all kinds of nonsense gossip in a clear and convincing way.
For example, her opening article today featured Queen Xiaozhuang and cheesecake.
From the background of the characters, to interesting historical gossip, to the eating habits of the nomads, and at the end, it also mixes in some unidentified historical anecdotes, which makes people hooked.
Yin Lian's story writing style is very unique to her, very spicy and humorous, and naturally contains some of the twisted values of the female devil, but it is also refreshing and admirable.
Food and gossip are indeed excellent partners. Coupled with appropriate marketing and money offensive, Yin Lian quickly gained many fans. While sending various Western snacks, Yin Lian also included some popular food lectures and dietary and beauty tips, which quickly won a lot of attention.
Yin Changsheng once peeked at her Weibo content and was dumbfounded.
Who is this blogger who talks like an aunt? ? who is it! ? Who is this person who keeps talking about real women, beauty, and all kinds of historical gossip?
Yin Changning was also shocked by this and asked Yin Lian: "Xiao Lian, what are these you wrote?"
Yin Lian smiled and said, "It's just some sensational things, Chang Ning, don't worry about it."
But it's really hard for the Yin brothers not to care.
After that, Yin Lian also wrote a lot of messy historical gossip about food topics. Most of them were famous women in history, such as Yang Guifei, Hongfu Nu, Xia Ji, Lu Pheasant, etc., but occasionally some male celebrities were mixed in, such as Qin Shihuang, Yang Guang, Xie An and the like.
Because the Yin brothers were very concerned about her ladylike tone online, Yin Lian restrained herself a little and used softer tones and calmer words.
But it also irritates the eyes.
Yin Changning - My sister has been writing gossip about historical figures' affairs recently. What's wrong with her? How can I stop her from being secretly killed by her at night and thrown into the meat grinder?
But no matter what, Yin Lian's food Weibo quickly became popular. She has accumulated knowledge, but dares to spread it irresponsibly. Her diction is sharp and her language is humorous. What she talks about is what everyone is most interested in. Naturally, some people are willing to read it.
I posted it for a few days, and after buying popular Weibo reposts, I slowly gained popularity. Yin Lian saw that he was doing well on the surface, so he stopped spending more time on this aspect.
Anyway, it's just an explanation to Yin Huai, and she doesn't really expect to make money from this - whether it's a food reporter or a marketing Weibo, the money she can make is actually very limited, and Yin Lian doesn't really want to do this.
But she really started to organize the food map. Although she has only collected information about some dessert shops so far, she is also paying attention to other hotels and restaurants. Although the most suitable recipes for stardew fruit are currently only various desserts, Yin Lian has obtained more than just such a condiment over the years.
It’s just that she first picked the stardew fruit to try out.
Sure enough, after a few days, someone called to ask about the spices. Yin Lian arranged a time for them to come to Yin's house for a tea party on the weekend.
There were a lot of snacks at the tea party, and Yin Lian definitely didn't want to make them by himself. This time he finally revealed his "secret recipe", along with the seasoning itself. The refreshments were prepared by Master Ruan and Yin Changning together.
The tea party was held at the Yin family because Yin Lian wanted to take advantage of the Yin family's influence. As expected, many people were shocked as soon as they entered the Yin family's door, and their attitudes became much more correct.
It seems that the eldest daughter of this kind of family is not short of money at all, so their subsequent words and deeds are much more cautious.
At this tea party, star dew was added as seasoning to most of the refreshments, except for a few that had conflicting tastes and were particularly unsuitable.
The taste of star dew is not overbearing, but very fresh. When combined with different pastry types, it will not overwhelm the taste of the pastry itself, but just add a little extra embellishment to make it more delicious.
Because it is an unfamiliar spice, most people taste it quite fresh. Not only does it not taste boring, but it is also quite surprising. Everyone is secretly predicting what effect it will have if this flavor is added to the store's menu.
At the head of the long table, Yin Lian, who was wearing a white dress, clapped her hands and said, "I have just started a blog for a few days, and I didn't expect that so many managers of famous stores would be willing to attend this little tea party of mine." She smiled and said, He asked, "I wonder what you all think of today's snacks? Today's snacks were not made by me, but by our Master Ruan. They should be better than mine."
Among the twelve store managers present at this time, nine are men and only three are women. Among so many people, only one person has actually tasted the desserts made by Yin Lian himself. Most of the others were persuaded by their managers or chefs to come to the tea party and want to know the true taste of the Yin family's dim sum.
Yin Lian has actually been to more stores, but obviously not all store managers are willing to play games with the little girl. Several of them did not call at all afterwards, so it is even more impossible to know about the tea party, including "Dorothy".
At this time, after actually tasting the dim sum at the tea party, most people have already recognized the praise they heard before. Even if some people have different opinions because of the exaggerated praise they heard before, they at least agree that the dim sum with star dew is very good. It has development value.
The only store manager who has personally tasted Yin Lian's work has already taken the initiative to praise Yin Lian: "The craftsmanship of your master is naturally very outstanding, but Miss Yin's craftsmanship is another kind of unforgettable experience."
After hearing this, Yin Lian immediately pursed her lips and laughed as if she was happy.
Her easy-to-coax look is instantly lovable. A female store manager then said: "Although I have never eaten the cakes made by Miss Yin, I think the cakes made by Miss Yin must be different. Handmade by a beautiful girl like Miss Yin Cake cannot be compared to any master chef, it is not a matter of skill.”
If any man said this, it would seem frivolous, even if most of the store managers here are over thirty years old, they can be Yin Lian's fathers based on their age. But when a woman said it, it was full of compliments.
In particular, the female store manager's tone was particularly sincere.
Afterwards, Yin Lian asked everyone to have refreshments.
Afternoon tea is different from dinner. We always have to talk about astronomy, geography and gossip. Strictly speaking, all the men and women sitting at the tea table at this time are the most direct competitors. Maybe many of them have not even met face to face, but it does not prevent them from knowing each other's work style and business methods well.
After some people arrived, they already discovered that the staffing of this tea party was like a bidding party, but bidding for seasonings was simply unheard of. Firstly, seasonings are a way of making money at low prices and high sales. Secondly, mixing seasonings is not a problem. It is difficult to control the output channels of natural seasonings. There is no possibility of monopoly, and naturally it is impossible to buy and sell them at high prices.
The price control of many spices does not come from variety, but relies on quality differences.
Little did they know that Yin Lian was really confident that he could monopolize the stardew fruit seasoning market.
There are too few people that Yin Lian can control in the other world, so the various materials that can be provided are also limited. With limited resources, she must maximize the value of every item in order to obtain sufficient capital to continue to expand her power.
In this case, she would not let go of the value of a condiment like stardew fruit easily.
As the tea party progressed, someone finally couldn't help it and started to bring the discussion to the point.
"Speaking of which, I have never heard of the stardew fruit that Miss Yin mentioned. Is this its scientific name?"
Yin Lian smiled playfully and replied: "No, this is the name I named it with my friends. I don't know what the scientific name is. If Mr. Hu finds out one day, he must tell me. "
The man named Hu smiled coquettishly and said, "I don't even know what it looks like, so it's hard to find out."
Yin Lian thought: Here we come.
She said: "Speaking of this, I have a photo of the plant that a friend took for me." She picked up her phone, pulled up a photo of stardew, and said, "If anyone needs it, I can send it to him."
She acted like a carefree young lady who didn't know anything about the world.
Naturally, none of the store managers could miss this opportunity, so they all asked Yin Lian to send them photos.
Everyone had their own plans in mind, and tried to ask Yin Lian for more information about star dew grass in a roundabout way. Yin Lian answered a few questions at the beginning, but slowly turned into a confused question.
In the end, she simply changed the topic and refused to talk about stardew grass with anyone. She was only willing to discuss various snacks and ingredients. In order to please her, everyone could only tell a lot of cooking tips and interesting stories that did not involve their own business secrets. They even recommended many well-known restaurants to Yin Lian that had no real competitive relationship.
I don't know how much effort it took to dig out the contact information of her "friend" from Yin Lian.
It is said to be a contact information, but in fact there is only one email address.
Normally, these store managers would definitely disdain this kind of contact method that completely lacks reliable information. But Yin Lian worked step by step and let everyone see a lot of real content - such as traveling with bodyguards, lunch meals that cost hundreds or even thousands for just one or two bites, stardew fruit-flavored desserts, the Yin family's mansion... ...In the end, he threw out a mailbox without any guarantee. Even though no guarantee was actually made for this mailbox, subconsciously, everyone still felt that this mailbox was "precious" and "trustworthy" because of Yin Lian's actions. illusion.
Neither Yin Changsheng nor Yin Changning could figure out what Yin Lian wanted to do.
Open a snack shop? It doesn't look like it.
Yin Huai didn't care either. He was very busy every day. If Yin Lian had no special request, he wouldn't pay much attention to the behavior of his son and daughter. In his opinion, as long as the children are happy, that's all.
At the dinner table, he asked a little about Yin Lian's progress. After Yin Lian said that he had opened a Weibo, and then held a tea party today, and invited the managers of several famous stores to come and evaluate his dim sum, Yin Lian Although Huai felt that this development seemed a bit wrong, he decided to let Yin Lian develop on his own.
But at night, Yin Changning came secretly and asked Yin Lian: "Xiao Lian, why did you invite so many unfamiliar people today? Just to show off? I don't believe you are such a person who likes to make trouble for nothing. You Do you really want to be a food journalist?”
Yin Lian held her chin and thought for a while, then looked at Yin Changning and suddenly said, "Channing, do you think I lied?"
Yin Changning thought for a while and replied: "Well... I just think that being a food reporter is actually not interesting. And dad won't really let you be a reporter, you know that, right?"
Yin Huai definitely didn't take what Yin Lian said seriously. In his opinion, it was just a matter of letting Yin Lian play around.
Of course Yin Lian knew about this, and just because she knew, she would say such things to Yin Huai.
But Yin Changning couldn't tell her true purpose.
If there is anyone who Yin Lian trusts the most in the Yin family, it should actually be Yin Changning. Yin Lian relies on Mrs. Yin, but at the same time he always keeps a distance from her, or is forced to keep a distance. In her heart, Mrs. Yin is not the person she can rely on unconditionally. Although the distance between mother and daughter has become much closer in this life, Yin Lian still has a little uneasiness about Mrs. Yin.
But Yin Changning is different. Although for Yin Lian, Yin Changning could not be said to be completely trustworthy, but after all, he once stood by Yin Lian's side and survived her.
He has certain trust points.
But it's not enough.
So Yin Lian finally just said: "It's a secret. I can't tell you now. If you want to know, Chang Ning, just please me. Maybe I'll tell you when I'm happy."
Yin Changning really couldn't do anything to her. He stood up and said, "I'm going to get some fruit."
That night, Yin Lian opened her mailbox and saw several emails from various shop owners, all asking about stardew fruit. Yin Lian added the other party using a messaging software account that he had prepared previously and contained no personal information, and then started chatting with the other party.
She was clean and straight to the point with her quote.
——A 50g bottle of stardew powder can make ten cakes of average size, and costs 500 yuan per bottle. If you agree, I will mail it.
This is simply a lion's mouth. If it weren't for Yin Lian's paving the way, many people would probably click the cross to close the chat box.
——A piece of cake costs 50 yuan. Don’t you think this quote is too unrealistic?
——I heard from Xiaoyi that the average desserts over there are from 50 yuan to 150 yuan a piece, but the unique main products can be priced at around 100 yuan, selling for 168 to 168 yuan. There are two hundred and sixty-eight, and the cost is about 30% to 50% of the selling price. If you add stardew powder and make desserts the main product, the profit will still be over 50%, and this business is still worth doing.
——Of course, it doesn’t matter if you don’t agree. Anyway, you are not the only one who wants this.
Yin Lian took advantage of the small volume of shipments and the large number of people competing for it, so his quotations were quite arbitrary.
--exclusive? No, I don’t sign this kind of contract. Our relationship is just for online shopping. You pay a 30% deposit, and when the goods arrive, you transfer money to me via Alipay. It doesn't even matter if you don't pay, the worst thing is you won't do business with me in the future. I do not mind.
——My shipment volume is only about 100 bottles per month. It’s a small business, sorry. Will it increase in the future? Who knows what will happen in the future?
Yin Lian sold a hundred bottles of star dew powder in just a few clicks. Seven of the twelve stores quickly placed orders, and quickly ordered all one hundred bottles of star dew powder. Or to be more precise, it was one hundred and seven bottles. Yin Lian gave an extra bottle to each family, specifically for each other's food composition testing.
As for whether it will be used for food ingredient testing in the end, that is the other party's own choice, and Yin Lian can't control that much anyway.
She kept her word and sold only 100 bottles after she said she would limit her purchase to 100 bottles. After the total order quantity reached this number, Yin Lian very coldly told the people behind him that the product was out of stock and asked them to hurry up next time.
Most people would definitely not be able to do business this way, but Yin Lian did it deliberately. Different from the gentle and pleasant "Miss Yin" on the surface, she created a domineering and difficult-to-communicate character for the online store owner from the beginning, setting the tone for the interactions between the two parties. In this case, it is more convenient for her to control the rhythm of interactions between the two parties and prevent the other party from pursuing her identity.
Because of his willful personality and difficulty in communicating, what he says and does is normal. He is mysterious and weird, and has always been a brother.
In this case, although the character of the "online store owner" may cause dissatisfaction among buyers, it is smarter than creating a gentle and easy-to-get-to image and being questioned by various temptations.
Fifty thousand yuan is not too much, but it is free money that cannot be monitored by the Yin family's parents, and it is still very precious to Yin Lian. This is the initial capital for her future.
She first used the money to rent a private mailbox at the post office, intending to use this mailbox to send and receive some mail that was inconvenient to reveal her identity, and then purchased a large amount of glass beads online.
Yin Lian bought glass beads with a total price of more than one thousand, most of which are pure color beads, most of which are colorless and transparent, followed by various styles and colors of flat glass beads for landscaping, including gold, red, blue and green, and a wide range of colors. All types are included. There were also some two-color beads with beautiful patterns, and Yin Lian also bought some.
Thanks to the silly dragon's messy treasures, she was inspired to find a way to make something out of nothing. Thousands of modern glass beads can be bought for just a few dozen yuan. If they are brought to some worlds without artificial glass manufacturing technology, they can be used directly as gemstones. The interest rate difference is more than a thousand times. It is simply made out of nothing, with no capital and huge profits.
Unfortunately, whether glass beads or real gems, they are just stones after all. Before their value is converted into human resources and more practical living materials, they are just more beautiful stones.
In addition to the glass beads, Yin Lian also customized something else.
A solid golden dragon glass ornament.
The glass ornaments of this color were so tacky that the bodyguard sister kept complaining about Yin Lian's recent change in taste, but she didn't know that she was also helpless.
Who made a certain silly dragon like this vulgar style?
Yin Lian entered the house carrying the ornaments, and found that the house was obviously more lively than usual, as if there were guests.
She wanted to go back to the house and put away all the decorations, and then she ran down and entered the study room, only to find that the Yin brothers were playing games with their friends.
Du Wenxiao was very excited when he saw Yin Lian appear. He immediately wanted to abandon the controller and rush up to wag his tail at Yin Lian. However, Yin Changning grabbed his shirt from behind and almost staggered.
Yin Lian curled her lips, greeted him, and said, "Is your little Meian Anli, Sasha, okay?"
Du Wen smiled and said: "Where did Xiao Meian'an, Lisa, and so on come from!? Is Changsheng slandering me!? Yin Lian, you have to believe me, you are the only one in my heart."
Yin Lian didn't even bother to argue with him. He looked around and said, "There are exactly six of us. Let's have a threesome in the arena."
Several people were playing the strategic competitive game "Tower of Gods". Among the six, only Yin Lian was a girl. However, her actions were more brutal and cruel than anyone else's, which was completely incompatible with the ladylike and sweet appearance she usually displayed.
If they didn't look at the scene outside the screen, no one would have imagined that the handsome long-haired boy on the screen was a twelve-year-old girl.
In the past few days, several stores have begun to put stardew fruit-flavored snacks on shelves.
Because the materials are limited, almost every dim sum shop chooses the type of dim sum that it is good at to improve its varieties, but generally avoids conflicting varieties.
Stores that have not purchased stardew fruit spices are not in a hurry and plan to wait and see first. The most important thing is that Yin Lian claims that the monthly output of spices is only about 5 kilograms. According to this number, even if any store covers it all, it will be difficult to achieve scale, so there is no need to worry.
Of course they were not idle either. Stores that have received stardew fruit powder are trying their best to find out where this spice comes from. Those who have not received it are not discouraged - they still have photos. So all the store owners used their own connections to inquire.
but none!
"After testing, this is not any currently known spice plant. However, we have studied its ingredients and found that it is a natural and beneficial nutritional spice containing a variety of nutrients. Do you have any adult plants on hand? Even if it’s sun-dried?”
"Maybe it's a type of spice that grows in the mountains that we haven't discovered yet. This is also the case. Our world is vast and rich in resources, and there are many places that are inaccessible. If this is a type of spice that only grows in a specific area, Plants, we may not always be able to discover them.”
After all kinds of inquiries, the expected results were not obtained. However, the stardew fruit snacks were warmly welcomed in various dessert shops. Although some people think the price is too expensive, the fresh and popular snacks are not worried about sales after all.
In order to maintain supply, several stores quickly limited the number of stardew flavored snacks.
Tasting the new products launched by peers, especially those that compete in terms of product type and geographical location, is also one of the daily tasks of store managers of such chain stores. The store manager of [Dorothy] heard a rumor after someone went to buy a copy of a competitor's new product.
"A beautiful girl with a bodyguard? The store's recommended spices for the tea party?"
Her expression turned ugly involuntarily, especially after she took a bite of the cake and found that it had a sweet and delicate texture and a wonderful flavor, and it would be a hit at first sight.
