Xie Ming finished the day's work, stretched lazily, and relaxed his muscles and bones that were a little stiff because of sitting for a long time.

He is a freelance writer specializing in local cuisine.

It's a career that sounds lofty, but unfortunately, in the Great Interstellar Age, this profession is not as attractive as it seems.

Many freelance writers of food columns have to travel from planet to planet in order to make a living, and they don't even have much time to hang out in the reverse world, because they also have to spend a lot of time looking for good food - and the harvest is often not pleasant.

Xie Ming looked at the gradually increasing number of clicks behind the published article and showed a satisfied smile.

Why did you choose this profession in the first place? Probably because of my love for food.

He came from an ordinary family, and the family used nutrient solutions and nutrients all year round, and at that time, he never knew what food could do other than fill his stomach.

Until he got a piece of chocolate for the first time, which was a non-artificial, original, pure piece of chocolate.

The moment the chocolate was thrown into his mouth, a mellow aroma from cocoa mixed with milk spread in his mouth, and the smooth taste seemed to melt his whole being, and he felt a love-like taste, beautiful and natural.

That's when he learned that there was a difference between food and food. It's not just the difference between mango-flavored and pineapple-flavored nutrients in the supermarket, it's the kind of huge difference that is amazing, fascinating, and can't help but indulge in!

When Xie Ming's parents knew that his future dream was to become a foodie, he clearly felt the huge sense of loss conveyed by his parents.

For a moment, Xie Ming wanted to give up this wish, but his mother, a housewife who was so ordinary that it couldn't be more ordinary, told him: "If you like it, do it." ”

Later, his honest and unspoken father also gave him an encouraging look.

At that moment, Xie Ming knew that he could never go back.

Many times, on the difficult road to becoming a gourmet, Xie Ming had the idea of giving up, but when he thought of the encouragement of understanding and respect in his parents' helplessness, he plucked up the courage again and stood up again to continue on this difficult road.

Xie Ming has been in this industry for ten years, and when he can't make ends meet, he will write some articles that are in line with the current trend to fill the family.

Because of his unstable income and inability to get a job, Xie Ming has not talked about a girlfriend for more than three months.

However, after being in the industry for a long time, Xie Ming's work has gradually improved.

From the very beginning, no one paid attention at all, and now, more and more people have noticed this column of "Delicious Empire".

Sometimes some newly opened restaurants will come to Xie Ming and let him taste for free, not only for travel and accommodation, but also for a little consumption as a payment, which is almost Xie Ming's main source of income.

He also thought about whether to hire a water army or buy powder, but thinking about these methods not only wasted money but also treated the symptoms but not the root cause, he finally gave up.

A little bit of management, a little bit of filling, his "delicious empire" finally has its initial prototype.

He thought that his world would take a long time to fill, maybe another decade, maybe decades, or a lifetime......

Anyway, he was already ready for it.

However, things suddenly took a huge turn last year.

It was a restaurant with a good relationship with him, called Private Restaurant, and he and Chef Xie in the store were old friends.

After all, one is a catering, the other is a food column, and it is difficult to be unfamiliar.

The cabbage banquet in the private restaurant once sent him an invitation, but unfortunately he was on another distant planet at the time, and he couldn't rush back in time, and by the time he passed, it was already a week later.

Because he has been friends with Chef Xie for many years, he did not wait for a table like ordinary guests. Instead, he went directly to a small private room, which Chef Xie reserved for his friends.

After eating the stewed vermicelli with gollum meat in a private restaurant, Xie Ming regretted it.

I knew what else I was going to! How much good food can be eaten in the snow and ice? It's better to stay here honestly, according to his friendship with Lao Xie, how can he be the first to taste this cabbage!

Xie Ming felt a faint sadness in his heart, and the excitement originally caused by eating the drunken ice scorpion had long since faded. In order not to let the sadness spread, Xie Ming opened his stomach and ate it, hoping to clear away the remorse with the sourness of the stewed vermicelli with gollum beast meat.

This can be regarded as a disguised way to turn grief and anger into appetite......

That night, Xie Ming wrote a food report based on the dishes he ate during the day.

It focuses on the sourness of Chinese cabbage, the fat but not greasy of the grunt meat, and the harmonious taste created when these two things that don't seem to match each other together.

This article is basically similar to his previous articles, except that the joy and satisfaction revealed between the lines seem to be heavier, and the reader seems to be able to taste Xie Ming's mood from these descriptions.

Therefore, as soon as his article was published, it immediately attracted the attention of dozens of new fans.

This would never have been possible in the past!

Xie Ming was not only excited, but also had a feeling that he had found the direction of his life!

He said hello to Chef Xie, and he must inform him as soon as there is a fresh dish.

Chef Xie readily agreed.

Xie Ming has a very good personal relationship with him, in addition to the fact that both of them have the surname "Xie" by chance, probably the most important thing is due to the love of food between the two.

To put it more bluntly, it is that both of them are delicious, so they have a common topic.

Since the private chef has continued to get good goods, Xie Ming's targeted reports have gradually increased.

Although at the beginning, some people poured dirty water on him, saying that he was taking money from the store to advertise to the other party, but as the reputation of the private restaurant grew, more and more people went to try it. The conclusion reached was surprisingly consistent with Xie Ming.

And that is - delicious!

There are always various reasons for something unpalatable, but there is only one reason why people love food.

He can finally live by simply enjoying food!

With a fixed readership, a fixed source of materials, and a fixed economic income...... All of them are developing in a good direction.

Xie Ming selected a few comments from enthusiastic readers and began to edit the content of the next article.

As part of the giveback he discussed with Chef Tse, the restaurant plans to select seven lucky readers to sample seven private dishes for free next weekend.

Although these seven lucky readers were able to taste for free, the cost of the journey was really not included, so Xie Ming and Chef Xie believe that with such prerequisites, there may not be many enthusiastic readers who participate.

However, things always turn out unexpectedly.

Xie Ming not only gained tens of thousands of followers because of this, but also the number of readers who signed up was as high as three million! This took everyone by surprise.

Thus, a huge campaign for the election began.

After setting a more detailed threshold, Xie Ming still stayed up for three days to complete the selection work. After notifying Chef Xie of the list and sending messages one by one according to the contact information given by the other party, Xie Ming finally breathed a sigh of relief.

It's better to do less of this kind of activity, it's really torturous!

I have to say that Xie Ming is a very responsible person, and Chef Xie told him to find seven representative figures, and he really measured it according to this standard.

Most of these seven people are more active in the reverse world, although the number of fans is not as good as that of serious Internet celebrities, but they can be regarded as relatively credible in the circle.

Mr. Wang Shangwen, a tutor in the Department of Chemistry of a college, is an old gluttonous in the food industry.

Miss Sun Hongli, the beautiful editor of a fashion magazine, is a food lover.

Ms. Lucy is a well-known fitness instructor and a lover of healthy food.

Mr. Bright, a mech repairman, is a food critic on the sideline.

Miss Lulua, a famous singer, is known to all fans for her love of food.

Ms. Elena is a very ordinary housewife, but she has attracted a lot of attention because of her dexterity, and she is also a food lover.

Mr. Gordon, a college student, is concerned by the majority of travelers because he likes to travel, and his travel diary is always indispensable for food.

Chef Xie was naturally quite satisfied when he saw this list, the people in it were not only famous, but also from all walks of life, which was very representative.

The reason why Xie Yu held this tasting event was not out of charity, but to increase popularity.

Although his restaurant is now very popular, Xie Yu, who knows the power of food, never feels that this is the limit.

It's not that if a restaurant is doing well, it doesn't need publicity, unless you want to keep the square inch forever.

Xie Yu dared to reach a cooperation intention with Louis and Si Nian without knowing anything, of course, he would not be someone who only knew how to keep it.

He dares to take risks, he also has that fighting spirit, and he has the determination to carry forward his private kitchen.

He and his apprentices had been waiting for this day for a long time, and now, the east wind had come......

Si Nian didn't know about Chef Xie's big moves, but from the cooperation contract signed by the other party in a hurry and the amount of vegetables that he kept urging, Si Nian was somewhat mentally prepared.

The recently harvested vegetables were divided into two batches, one batch of larger quantities was sent to Chef Xie, and the other batch was packaged and sent to Fang Yi.

Fang Yi was unilaterally contacted by Louis, and then directly gave Si Nian such a task.

Si Nian didn't ask anything, and tried to follow Louis's instructions to do it.

Louis is the person he trusts the most in this world......
