Pei En tore open the bag of Spicy Sticks and ate them bite by bite. As he ate, he felt his body grow hot and become filled with strength. Once he had finished them all, he suddenly realized that his cultivation realm had advanced.
"This feels amazing!"
After his realm advanced, Pei En shouted without hesitation. At the same time, he unleashed all the aura within him.
"My heavens, what kind of special food is that? It can raise someone's realm by an entire star in an instant? That's incredible—simply unheard of."
"Unbelievable, truly unbelievable. As expected of someone from that legendary Sacred Land. Just as one would expect, such a person is a Heaven's Chosen. Even something he casually takes out can change a person's fate."
"If it were those other alchemists, would they be able to casually refine something like this without us providing them with special materials?"
"Do you think we should go and pledge ourselves to Young Master Yun as well? Look at him—he achieved success at such a young age, possesses extraordinary talent, and is full of righteous energy. A person like him is bound to be remarkable, with limitless potential in the future."
The scene on the street was witnessed by many people. They discussed it among themselves, their eyes filled with disbelief.
"Wow, that's amazing!"
The young men and women from the Xiao Family who had come along were equally astonished, admiration evident in their eyes.
Xiao Xun'er was comparatively calm. She came from the legendary Ancient Clan and knew something about rare talents and treasures, so she was not as shocked as the others.
"Shenwei Senior Brother, how do you have so many amazing little things? Did your incredible master give them all to you?"
Nalan Yanran pouted and asked curiously.
Over this period of time, this senior brother had given her far too many shocks.
"Be good. These are only basic things, nothing worth envying. If you follow me in the future, you'll have whatever you want."
Yun Shenwei smiled faintly and reached out to pinch the girl's cheek.
Then he turned and looked around. "Pei En, take some men and prepare several large tables and some chairs for me. I'm going to do business here."
"Yes!"
Pei En immediately stood ramrod straight and ordered the guards behind him, "Young Master Yun has spoken! No matter what, make sure you do a fine job. You've followed me for many years, and it hasn't been easy for any of you. As long as you perform well, Young Master Yun certainly won't forget you."
At Pei En's words, the remaining guards became excited. Just moments ago, they had watched their usual big brother advance by an entire realm with their own eyes, and they envied him immensely.
For people like them who worked for a family, their talents were naturally far inferior to others'. Otherwise, why would they have ended up as guards?
At that thought, they became energized and hurried into the shops, carrying out all the tables and chairs and arranging them neatly. Once everything was done, they stood straight like imperial guards, keeping watch nearby.
"Mm, very good."
After seeing that the venue he needed had been prepared, Yun Shenwei walked to the central table and leaped onto it.
"Fellow townspeople, uncles and aunties, young men and women, hello, everyone!
"I am Yun Shenwei, the Yun Lan Sect's Head Disciple. I believe everyone is no stranger to the Yun Lan Sect. Today, I have come here not for money, nor for fame or profit, but only to let everyone enjoy the finest delicacies."
As he spoke, Yun Shenwei waved his hand, taking a large basin filled with snacks from his ring.
"I believe that all of you find daily life rather dull. Eating the same food every day really is boring. Therefore, this time, I have brought you some of the little snacks most needed in everyday life. With these things, I believe you will no longer have to worry about unpleasant daily meals."
At Yun Shenwei's signal, several young men and women from the Xiao Family quickly stepped forward and took the basin of snacks.
"Words alone prove nothing. Gold cups and silver cups are no match for the people's praise, so today, everyone can first have a proper taste of these delicious foods. As for the price, there is none here. Eat as much as you like!"
After saying that, Yun Shenwei took out several more basins of prepared snacks and had the Xiao Family youths distribute them.
"Wow, it's actually a free tasting! This event is absolutely amazing. These foods look so strange—are they foreign specialties?"
"Wow, this is really delicious! Ah, such a wonderful sweet-and-sour flavor!"
"This water even has bubbles. It makes you burp after drinking it, and it has a unique flavor."
"I think this food called a hamburger tastes the best..."
For a time, everyone received food. Since the food was simply too delicious, they could not help but praise it as they ate.
"This is exactly the effect I wanted. Today, you chose to accept it for free. Tomorrow will be the beginning of you paying for it. There's no such thing as a free lunch."
Yun Shenwei could not help laughing loudly as he watched the scenes below.
Others might think he was losing money by doing this, but he knew full well that if he did not open the market through free samples, it would be difficult to promote the business. People were always slow to accept new things. If he wanted to speed that up, free samples were the only way.
"I believe everyone thinks these foods are delicious. As for those friends who missed out just now, don't worry. We still have several rounds of tasting events, and the second round will begin shortly. Each round will be more exciting than the last, so please don't miss it if you pass by. If there are people in your home who want to come, hurry and notify them. We'll be taking a half-hour intermission."
Yun Shenwei's purpose in saying this was naturally to have the people here spread the news even further. If he wanted to make the business bigger, the more people who knew about it, the better.
"Young Master Yun, then what should we do?"
Pei En and the other guards became anxious.
"Oh, go hand out these flyers, then help them hang up the banners."
Yun Shenwei looked around and felt that the area he occupied was still too plain. To attract customers, he needed visual impact.
Thus, he took out some flyers, Promotional Posters, and banners that he had exchanged from the shop.
Pei En, the other guards, and the young men and women of the Xiao Family took them and began getting busy.
After giving his instructions, Yun Shenwei had someone prepare a large sofa, then pulled Nalan Yanran close and flirted with her.
As for Xiao Xun'er, although she felt somewhat awkward at the moment, she did not say much. After all, this was a matter between the young couple. Thus, she took charge of hosting the event, answering questions for residents who came after receiving the flyers...
