Now reading: Chapter 681 - 24: The Cannon Fodder Starlet Who Gives Up on from Quick Transmigration: The Mad Beauty Refuses to Be the Scapegoat!, a Sci-fi novel by Stir-fried Pork Belly.

In this place where every household can easily produce natural wild mountain honey, it’s surprisingly cut off from the world, with no one paying attention.

Jiang Lai pulled out fifty yuan from his pocket.

"Here, do you still have honey at your house? I’d like to buy so."

The old man waved his hand repeatedly.

"Don’t give money, don’t give money."

"But I want to buy so honey."

"We have plenty at ho. If you want so, I’ll just give it to you; there’s no need for money."

After saying this, he went inside and slowly ca out with a jar of honey.

The jar was one of those candy jars from over a decade ago, looking quite vintage. Printed on the transparent jar was a chubby child holding wildflowers, looking very festive.

Jiang Lai held up the honey in the sunlight and examined it. The color was clear, the fluidity was good, and it emitted a faint floral fragrance when opened.

Unknowingly, the director had already focused the cara on Jiang Lai.

After all, the Lu Huan and Lu Ming duo was a bust. To create buzz and generate interest, it seed they still had to rely on Jiang Lai.

"Pure wildflower honey."

She rembered that in the Beast World, she had also studied honey for a long ti.

She was quite familiar with this type of pure natural honey.

"I don’t take things without paying. Please take the money first, and when I need honey, I’ll co back to you for more."

After saying this, Jiang Lai stuffed the money into the hand of a young girl and then took the honey to the director.

"Director, I have sothing to discuss with you. How would you like to create so public welfare buzz for our variety show?"

The director still didn’t know what Jiang Lai was planning.

"What kind of public welfare buzz?"

"A public welfare live stream sale. We won’t take a commission or charge a fee, and we’ll sell honey for the villagers here for free.

I just checked; the natural resource conditions here are excellent. If scaled up properly, it could likely lift this impoverished village out of poverty and make it prosperous."

Upon hearing this, the director briefly pondered and then quickly realized the potential feasibility of this idea. If they went through with it, the variety show could be branded as a charity project and might even get airti on a major channel.

"The quality of the goods must be well controlled; unqualified products cannot be sold to the audience."

"That’s easy to handle. You can step in, talk to the local leaders, and form a public welfare poverty alleviation project. If a factory is established in the village, we can quickly scale up.

Sending products for inspection is also quick. With a little extra cost, certification can be obtained in just one day."

"I didn’t expect you to know so much about this area."

Jiang Lai smiled.

"I did so live streaming before, so I have so experience."

This variety show wasn’t a big investnt, as could be seen from the guests they invited, with no major A-list stars.

The biggest na was probably Jiang Lai, who had played supporting roles in a few hit dramas. The other actors, except for Lu Huan, hovered around the third and fourth tier.

The director didn’t expect this variety show to receive so much attention and buzz for its authenticity.

Nor did he expect one of the guests to be such a savvy perforr.

Indeed, tying in with poverty alleviation, the following broadcasts would go quite smoothly.

"We can give it a try."

"Let’s get started now. If we move quickly, we can launch the live stream pre-sale by tomorrow."

The director glanced at Jiang Lai more than once.

He hadn’t expected her to be so astute.

He originally brought Jiang Lai and Jiang Qu on as guests as foils for the sibling pair of Lu Huan and Lu Ming, to hype up the sibling CP relationship.

Now it seed that there was no need to continue hyping that; he had a better direction.

The honey samples were quickly sent out, and after in-depth discussions with local leaders, the live streaming project aid at poverty alleviation was officially established.

Everything proceeded smoothly, and the live broadcast could start by tomorrow.

An originally planned ga task was directly removed to allocate specific ti for the live stream.

As for the choice of host, there was no need to think much; it was Jiang Lai.

Once everything was finalized, the director greatly revised his opinion of Jiang Lai.

"I really enjoy working with smart people. If your schedule doesn’t conflict, I’d like to invite you to join the next variety show."

This director had produced quite a few variety shows, not many of which were hits, but the productions were all high-quality, earning a loyal following.

Jiang Lai didn’t give a direct answer; she just said she’d discuss it with her manager.

In the evening, Lu Huan and Han Li, with their hands full of items, deliberately detoured to Jiang Lai’s place.

"Making money is quite easy. I previously thought this approach contradicted our survival the, but now I see I was foolish. Since soone broke the rules, I’ll follow the example."

Lu Huan hadn’t expected that in this small place, ten yuan had such strong purchasing power.

Buying eggs, buying at, and as long as they said a few nice words when making the purchases, those people would give extra when they saw the cara.

Vegetables aren’t worth much here; every household grows them, and they sell what they can’t eat, so Lu Huan managed to get quite a bit of vegetables with just a few words.

Jiang Lai glanced at the things they carried, expressionless.

"Ten yuan isn’t that easy to spend."

Lu Huan’s eyes filled with doubt upon hearing that.

How did she know about the ten yuan?

"We worked hard for our money. I’ll spend it however I want. Didn’t you do the sa before?

So what? Is the money from selling wheat all spent? What else do you have to sell now?"

Jiang Lai smiled.

"I’ll sell whatever you’re selling."

"Every household here has honey. The little you collected in the mountains won’t be easy to sell."

"You know every household here has honey, yet you shalessly sell the diluted substandard stuff you have to others. You certainly deserve the money, for your conscience is gone."

After saying this, Jiang Lai turned, went back inside, and locked the door in one smooth motion.

Leaving Lu Huan standing there, fuming but powerless.

She had gone through so much effort to detour, only to be scolded by Jiang Lai.

Returning to her place, Lu Huan threw the ingredients onto the table, her face tight-lipped.

Lu Ming, who had stayed at ho, remained silent.

Han Lu saw the tense atmosphere and, not wanting to be the scapegoat between the siblings, decided to take half the ingredients and slip away.

After a long wait, Lu Huan didn’t hear any comforting words from Lu Ming.

Furiously, she turned to Lu Ming.

"What have you been doing all day? I worked hard selling things and buying food. Did you do nothing?"

Lu Ming glanced at her.

After calming down, he barely managed to control his emotions.

"What do you expect to do?"

"Cook, I’m hungry even if you’re not."

Looking at the ssy ingredients on the table, a surge of frustration welled up inside Lu Ming.

He’s expected to do everything. What is he? Lu Huan’s servant?

"I’m tired. You should prepare the food."
