Speaking or not.
Although Cao Tianrui has been a street punk since he was a kid, he is quite decisive when it cos to getting things done, thanks to him watching a ton of Hong Kong and Taiwanese dramas. He firmly believes in one principle: when doing things, never dawdle, dawdling ans death!
At this mont, looking at the transformation of his gym’s style, Cao Tianrui thought his earlier idea wasn’t so bad after all.
The gym before: People of all ages vigorously working out on various exercise machines, filled with the sll of sweat.
The gym now: The sa people, chowing down on barbeque skewers and steaks on exercise machines, the entire room slling like cumin lamb!
But Cao Tianrui knows one more thing.
This Jia i Gym has been open for a while now; why hasn’t this happened before? Why now?
His gaze turned to the yellow food truck parked by the street outside.
Inside the gym.
A fierce Yang Hong looked at his "sneaky-eating" wife and sister-in-law, angry beyond belief.
This damn sneaky eating his sister ntioned on WeChat, and eating with a bunch of gym coaches?
Yang Hong struggled to push the wicked scene out of his mind, chuckled, and helplessly sat beside the two, "Wife, if you’re out for late-night snacks, just say so, why say it’s for working out?"
Speaking of which, Song Ya did feel a bit embarrassed.
"I did co to work out!" Song Ya showed her phone to Yang Hong, "See, I even signed up for a week-long weight loss camp!"
"Then what’s this?" Yang Hong pointed at the barbeque skewers and steak noodles on the table.
"Who knew that a food truck would appear on the way to the gym, and I couldn’t resist taking a bite. I honestly just wanted a taste." Song Ya argued confidently.
"And who would have thought, the food truck owner’s culinary skills are amazing! Not just the steak, even the noodles are excellent, particularly these skewers, honey, do you know how much these big skewers cost?"
Yang Hong, engrossed by Song Ya’s chatter, forgot why he ca, looking at the hefty at skewers, "At least five yuan, right?"
"No no no!" Song Ya wagged her finger, "You’re wrong, this big skewer costs just two yuan."
"What?" Yang Hong thought he heard wrong, "Two yuan?"
"Yup!" Song Ya now felt justified turning a workout into a barbeque session, saying boldly, "Is it my fault? They are so tasty and cheap, and so..."
Before Song Ya could finish.
Yang Hong jumped up, "You sit tight, I’m getting so skewers too."
Right, how can one resist such cheap skewers?
Not only cheap but so delicious!
Yang Hong instantly rushed out, "Boss, fifty skewers!"
Chen Mo’s arms were almost catching fire, both hands spinning, flas bursting from the skewers!
"Just a mont, almost ready!"
During the skewering, Chen Mo realized that no matter where his stall went, it faced a perplexing issue.
The foot traffic might not be huge, but the sales were surprisingly good, and it was as if these folks were eating for free. Who eats fifty skewers of lamb alone?
Cao Tianrui was observing, having watched two rounds of skewering.
"At first, it seed simple, just slow roasting. The seasoning was simple too, just saw the little boss sprinkle so salt."
"But this spinning and leaping..."
Cao Tianrui scratched his head, unable to comprehend how the little boss made sparks fly from the skewers.
"If I could learn this trick, my gym BBQ shop could definitely take off!" Cao Tianrui pondered secretly.
He had a plan in mind, to talk to the little boss about becoming an apprentice when the stall closed!
On the other side, stubborn He Ziheng was squatting on the roadside, feeling miserable.
"Why does LuLu have so many viewers during her live stream, with tons of tips, and here I am streaming Boss Xiao Chen..."
"No viewers is one thing, but getting flad by fans from Jingzhou, why?"
He couldn’t figure it out.
Yet, being stubborn, once He Ziheng set his mind on sothing, he had to finish it, otherwise, he couldn’t sleep peacefully at night.
Squatting by the roadside, He Ziheng watched Chen Mo skewering on the opposite road, idly scrolling through TikTok.
"Brothers, I can’t do it anymore..."
"Yesterday, the doctor at the hospital said if I keep eating like this, I’ll kick the bucket. See these dark spots on my face? It’s from eating too much!"
"Family, I’ve decided to retreat for a while to get treatnt. Once I’m better, I’ll be back for more eating broadcasts!"
He Ziheng ca across a video of a food strear with over a million fans.
The guy in the video looked haggard, and the caption said he transford from 160 pounds to 300 pounds over three years of food streaming, terrifying!
"Amazing, another one who values money over life." He Ziheng found it a bit amusing.
He turned off the phone, continuing to ponder about his career.
"My sister-in-law never really thought highly of , and the fundantal reason is because I have no money and no career?"
"Gu Jing never says it, but the wedding has been delayed repeatedly, isn’t it also because of this?"
The more He Ziheng thought, the more dejected he beca. Monts ago he found the food strear on the brink of eating himself to death amusing, now he sowhat understood him.
As a man, without money, one becos disheartened.
"If making money is possible, then eating a bit more doesn’t seem like a big deal, right?"
"Eat... eat..."
Exactly!
He Ziheng slapped his forehead!
Yes, others succeed in food streaming, why not ?
Moreover, not just any food stream, but a special one. That major strear ate for three years and ruined his health, ultimately because he ate without exercising?
How about I eat and exercise?
Thinking of this, He Ziheng’s body trembled with excitent, as if he could already see the money waving at him!
Yes, this is how it should be done!
He Ziheng imdiately started a live stream, renaming his streaming room to [Eat and Exercise for a Healthy Body]!
Holding his phone, he eagerly headed across the street towards Chen Mo, shouting, "Brother Xiao Chen, give a hundred skewers!"
"Can you finish them? Cold skewers don’t taste as good." Chen Mo, recognizing an old acquaintance, kindly reminded him.
"Other’s skewers I might not finish, but yours, I definitely will."
Chen Mo said no more.
Right now, he was focusing on achieving his task completion targets; if soone ordered, he fulfilled it.
Just then, a batch was freshly grilled, and Chen Mo handed a massive bunch of skewers held in his left hand to He Ziheng, "No returns if you can’t finish them."
"Alrighty."
The other large bunch he gave fifty to Yang Hong, twenty to Cao Tianrui, and thirty to a new custor, and they were all gone.
He glanced at the stock in the cabinet.
"Whoa, wasn’t fully prepared today."
Nearly a thousand skewers almost cooked within no ti; only two hundred were left.
"The task requires at least twenty kinds of skewers, and this is just one. New stock is needed tomorrow."
Chen Mo considered silently, seeing there were no queues by the BBQ stand; he placed the remaining two hundred lamb skewers onto the grill.
Finish grilling first!
He Ziheng, holding a hundred skewers, looked around.
He had planned to jog on the road, eating as he ran.
Then he saw the gym behind the food truck packed with people, and none were exercising, every one of them was eating skewers.
"Fantastic." He Ziheng, holding his phone, decisively entered Jia i Gym.
Cao Tianrui, seeing He Ziheng enter his gym, felt a bit annoyed, if not for this guy holding a phone the day before, his gym wouldn’t have beco a charity dining area, damn!
Cao Tianrui was muttering.
Only to see He Ziheng approaching, "Boss, how’s the consumption here?"
"Hot water is free, seats are free." Cao Tianrui, upset, grumbled, grabbing a skewer moodily.
He Ziheng chuckled, "That’s not what I ant; I an, for working out, what’s the rate here?"
Cao Tianrui thought he misheard.
What the heck?
Are you coming to the gym to work out?
Thinking this, he realised he might be wrong.
Isn’t a gym ant for working out?
