Many wealthy individuals who had visited the Sky of Grass and Fish Restaurant’s Supreme VIP Area also joined in the race of buying the Lantian Silver Thread Rice.
Of course, there were also some affluent people who hadn’t been to the VIP area but had heard about it. Intrigued, they bought a small quantity of the Lantian Silver Thread Rice to try.
After enjoying a meal, they were immediately captivated and felt that it was worth every penny. Most of them became repeat customers.
“Boss, do you sell Lantian Silver Thread Rice here?” A casually dressed young man in his twenties or thirties walked into the store and asked the store attendant.
“Yes,” The store attendant nodded and replied.
“Um… can I buy One Jin(0.5 kg) of rice?” The young man scratched his head as he spoke, feeling somewhat embarrassed.
His name was Zhou Zhiyuna and he is an ordinary white-collar worker with a relatively high monthly salary of around 20,000 yuan, and he usually received a year-end bonus of around 30,000 to 40,000 yuan.
He was also a loyal fan of Su Jing. When he heard that Lantian Silver Thread Rice had been released on the market, he wanted to show his support and satisfy his curiosity about this legendary rice.
However, he hesitated to spend 11,000 yuan on a Jin(0.5 kg) of rice. That was half of his monthly salary, and he could only be considered well-off, not luxurious.
“That’s possible,” The store attendant smiled as he spoke.
“Okay, then I’ll buy one Jin(0.5 kg),” Zhou Zhiyun let out a sigh of relief. He spent 11,000 yuan and bought one Jin of Lantian Silver Thread Rice. He also went to the market to buy some vegetables.
After returning to his rented house, he washed the rice and put it in the rice cooker. Then, he started preparing the dishes. Before the dishes were ready, a strong aroma of rice filled the air. Zhou Zhiyun resisted his salivating mouth and finished cooking the dishes.
Carefully, he scooped out a bowl of rice and took a mouthful with his chopsticks. The rich and mellow flavor instantly spread from his tongue, and Zhou Zhiyun couldn’t help but widen his eyes, revealing a look of bliss on his face.
He forgot about his own cooking and devoured mouthfuls of Lantian Silver Thread Rice, feeling overwhelmed with happiness.
At this moment, he was so content that he could almost cry. He finished the small pot of Lantian Silver Thread Rice in just a few mouthfuls, not leaving a single grain, but the dishes remained untouched.
“It’s so delicious, so fulfilling. No wonder it cost 11,000 yuan per Jin(0.5 kg),” Zhou Zhiyun was deeply moved. In the past, he had indulged himself to pursue a girl and had been to upscale restaurants, experiencing meals that cost over a thousand yuan.
However, he felt that those experiences were far from comparing to just a couple of bowls of rice.
Zhou Zhiyun made up his mind. In the future, when he wanted to treat himself, he would buy Lantian Silver Thread Rice. He couldn’t afford to eat it every day, but having it a few times a month was still feasible, as long as he saved money elsewhere.
Countless people, just like Zhou Zhiyun, were won over by Lantian Silver Thread Rice. Online platforms were flooded with rave reviews about it, and the positive feedback surged like bamboo shoots after the rain.
This led to more people being curious and going to try it. The sales of Lantian Silver Thread Rice skyrocketed, astonishing those who initially doubted its success and those who were skeptical observers.
…
A polite young man stood outside the entrance of a Lantian Silver Thread Rice specialty store as he dialed Huo Yunshu’s number on his phone to call him and report to him.
“Young Master Huo,” The young man said politely as soon as Huo Yunshu picked up the phone.
“How is it? Did anyone buy the Lantian Silver Thread Rice?” Huo Yunshu inquired.
“Yes,” The young man replied.
“I assume it’s just a few Jin (0.5 kg/Jin) purchased by Tang Hao, An Jihao, and some other acquaintances of Su Jing?” Huo Yunshu guessed.
“No, Tang Family bought several hundred Jin (0.5 kg/Jin). It seems that many wealthy individuals like An Jihao, Old Wu, and others bought over a hundred Jin (0.5 kg/Jin) each. Additionally, there are many people who bought smaller quantities. According to the statistics, the sales on the first day exceeded 20 Million Yuan, and on the second day, it exceeded 30 Million Yuan. More and more people are coming in to buy the Lantian Silver Thread Rice because of its reputation, and it seems like it will continue to rise. Lantian Silver Thread Rice is a consumable product, and there is no competition for it in the current market. The sales volume is estimated to only increase in the future,” The young man explained.
“How is that possible?” Huo Yunshu almost crushed the phone in his hand when he heard this news.
“I also found it hard to believe, so I bought a little and tried it myself. After that, I couldn’t say anything. This rice is simply delicious, and it’s said to be very beneficial for the body,” The young man said.
“Buy half a Jin (0.5 Kg/Jin) and bring it to me. Also, see if there’s a way to obtain some unprocessed rice grains, the kind that hasn’t been hulled or milled,” Huo Yunshu instructed.
“Alright,” The polite young man understood Huo Yunshu’s thoughts when he mentioned rice grains. Rice is like damaged seeds that can hardly sprout, but rice grains can. If he could obtain rice grains and cultivate them, he could compete with Su Jing’s business.
Meanwhile, Fu Hongxue was in a state of distress. The damage suffered by the Honghe Group during this period was far worse than he had initially expected.
It wasn’t just the Honghe Group; the entire domestic automobile market had been greatly impacted by the Galactic Corporation Group. The momentum of Galactic Automobiles was overwhelmingly powerful and was devouring the entire market.
What was even more frightening was that the Galactic Corporation Group had the support of policies. The country seemed to highly regard this clean energy vehicle trend, which had a tendency to gradually phase out fuel-based cars.
In this current climate, the already popular Galactic Automobiles became even more sought after. In such circumstances, where would other automobile manufacturers go? How would they find a way forward?
