Chapter 494 - Chapter 494 494. Rhetorical Device_1

Chapter 494: 494. Rhetorical Device_1 Chapter 494: 494. Rhetorical Device_1 Song Tan had already rolled up her sleeves and was ready–she wanted to see who was shameless enough to bully a child!

However, once her face was up against the camera and she saw the rapidly flashing comments, a hint of confusion appeared in her eyes.

The… comments were quite friendly, actually!

It didn’t seem like anyone was cursing.

But soon, looking at Xiaojiang’s similarly dumbstruck face at the top of the video, she frowned, “Sorry, what did you just say? You said our Qiaoqiao is selling peaches with a guilty conscience?”

“Are you sick? I’m selling my own peaches, why would I feel guilty? Take it or leave it!”

Wow!

Big sis is fierce and so good-looking!

Qiaoqiao watched from the side with sparkling eyes.

Xiaojiang: …

He had also managed to pull himself together from this sudden attack of beauty, now maintaining a stiff expression: “So, the host can’t win the argument and has called for reinforcements?”

“What’s the matter, you get anxious when I say your peaches aren’t worth 80 yuan a pound? It’s clearly a rip-off, trying to swindle customers with a one-off deal, and yet you blab so much!”

Song Tan raised an eyebrow, “Why don’t you take a hammer and knock on your own head first? Have you ever bought peaches from my house? Just saying it’s not worth it–there has never been a complaint about my stuff not being worth it after it’s sold!”

[Wow! To speak or not to speak, big sis is so confident!]

[She’s so assertive! I love it!]

[I feel… she really has confidence in her own products.]

[Can’t afford peaches, I’m gonna buy some tea bags and silver fungus instead.]

Xiaojiang was stunned by her direct approach.

Being… so assertive in the live stream?

Is this about creating a straightforward persona?

But it’s an argument now, and building such a persona has no advantage in selling peaches whatsoever, it might even make the viewers loathe her!

He watched the comments with schadenfreude– ???

[Thinking it won’t make it so, yet even thinking is a sin!]

[You think I’d argue with you, and then you’d get a chance? Let me tell you, there’s no chance! Not at all!]

[The two above are having a vibrant argument like Joey Wong haha]

[To be fair, although this pretty big sis is fierce, she seems to be making sense.]

[Yeah, Xiaojiang, you didn’t buy anything from them before co-hosting, we didn’t see any unboxing video]

Xiaojiang became anxious.

In his previous exposes, at least he had bought some of their products. But recently, having tasted success, he did indeed slack off, so he didn’t make any purchases and just had his assistant review…

Now when arguing, it was inevitable that his stance wasn’t quite upright.

But it didn’t matter–he would eventually let the viewers know who was truly working hard and earnestly!

At this moment, he also lifted his chin:

“What’s the use of arguing and fighting with me so fiercely? How tasty should your peaches be to be worth 80 yuan a pound? I bet you can’t even explain yourself.”

Song Tan, however, looked into the camera and scrutinized something:

“You… wouldn’t be expecting me to send you a basket of peaches for free and then pay you to give me a good review, would you?”

“Otherwise, why on earth would you be complaining about my stuff being expensive… Expensive, so what? Did it cost you a penny?”

“Hah, you think you’re so ordinary-looking, but your thoughts are quite pretty!”

Song Tan, just like Qiaoqiao, had no concept of the elements that win an argument.

But that didn’t stop her from being infuriating.

For instance, at this moment, she handed the phone stand over to Qiaoqiao:

“Hold this steady, film me! Claiming this rummaging was a fraud all the way.”

Then she casually picked five peaches off the tree.

“You’re asking why my peaches are priced at 80 yuan a pound? Come on, I’ll tell you–”

Qiaoqiao caught the four peaches in her T-shirt, while she tossed one in her hand, then checked the live stream angle and yelled:

“Boss!”

Instantly, a huge shadow came dashing from outside the orchard–

Such a majestic figure!

Such a fierce stance!

Such an incredibly huge Boss!

Once again in front of the camera, the appearance of Da Wang stunned everyone to silence in Xiaojiang’s live broadcast room.

In Qiaoqiao’s room, however, it was a jubilant celebration:

[He’s here! Our King has arrived!]

[King! King!]

[The King is really so handsome, sob sob]

“Watch closely now.”

Song Tan tossed a peach and, without needing instructions, Da Wang gave a slight jump and caught it in his mouth. He then contentedly lay down, paws pressing down on the peach, and crunched it up in no time at all.

With one final crunch, he broke the peach pit. His wet nose burrowed inside, and his tongue swooped up the last bit of peach kernel.

The entire process was smooth and uninterrupted and didn’t even take a full minute from start to finish.

“Tastes good?” asked Song Tan.

“Woof!”

Da Wang looked at her eagerly, wanting more.

Xiaojiang: …

Live broadcast room: [Honestly, seeing this dog eat a peach so fast, I really believe it’s very tasty].

[Damn, this dog’s daily diet must be amazing! Even eating a peach is such a joy!]

[I don’t care, I’m going to buy a box to try it out]

[He eats so fast; it makes me crave some too!]

[I’m going to buy a box to try as well]

Song Tan glanced at the barrage of comments and felt more at ease.

Xiaojiang, however, still sneered, stubbornly saying, “A dog’s nature is to eat; it even thinks crap tastes good–”

“Your mouth is so filthy,” Song Tan interrupted him. “So tell me, who’s been eating crap, you or the dog?”

“Dream on if you want to freeload my peaches! I wouldn’t even give them to a pig.”

“Let’s go, Qiaoqiao.”

As she spoke, she took Qiaoqiao to the chicken coop beside the woods and tossed another peach in.

In an instant, the whole chicken coop erupted into a frenzy!

Roosters, hens, and ring-necked pheasants all shoved their way in, pecking frantically upwards and, if they got a peck of peach, pranced around overjoyed. The scene even involved a couple of scuffles with clucking and feathers flying in the woods, dust and leaves swirling in the air.

It didn’t take long before the peach was devoured as if by locusts, even the pit picked clean, leaving the juvenile pheasants reluctantly poking around in the crevices.

This time, whether in Qiaoqiao’s or Xiaojiang’s live broadcast rooms, no one could utter a word.

[Just… how can they eat so fast?]

[Impossible! These chickens are acting as if they’ve seen the Immortal Pill]

[Wait! Didn’t you guys notice there are two ring-necked pheasants in the coop?]

[Dude, the host is raising Guoyi! Absolutely bold and daring!]

Song Tan glanced at the comments and said nonchalantly, “Already registered, the Forestry Bureau has been here.”

But in Qiaoqiao’s live broadcast room, the comments were all filled with sourness:

[Never would I have imagined that the first time the host and her family read the comments, they wouldn’t be about me]

[In the host’s heart, there’s clearly someone else]

[This lunatic Xiaojiang! Host, are you envious of their 1.6 million viewers?]

Indeed, Xiaojiang’s live broadcast viewers had dropped to 1.6 million.

Meanwhile, Qiaoqiao’s viewing numbers had hit an unprecedented 170,000, and the follower count soared to 50,000!

Little did they know that Zhang Yanping was so excited that he was nearly ready to offer incense to the God of Wealth.

But Song Tan had no time to look at the data, and thus she was even less courteous:

“Any of you selling peaches, try throwing them in a chicken coop and see if you get this effect. If you do, I’ll give you 10 pounds for free!”

[Although I haven’t raised chickens, I think it’s probably not possible]

[I have raised chickens; this scene wouldn’t happen.]

[Although, but, the way the host used dogs and chickens to illustrate the deliciousness, it really opened my eyes]

[What a vivid figure of speech! I’m off to buy some right now!]

[It’s only 80 a pound, right? If chickens can eat it, why can’t I?]

[I’m a bit different, Qianqian ordered two boxes, wanting to try the Guoyi brand]
