The Greatest Village Doctor In The World
Chapter 2232 - 2231: Counterfeit Liquor
The food stall owner nodded: "Of course itās real, it was delivered by a salesperson from Ling Corporation today!" šššššØš²šššØšÆšš.šš¼šŗ
Ling Feng was puzzled after hearing this. Has the production capacity of apple cider become so large that it can be casually sold at food stalls now?
He remembered that even though apple cider hadnāt taken the high-end route, due to the limited production, it couldnāt be fully distributed. The monthly supply for a local market was always quite limited.
Could it be that now it is available even at food stalls?
Li Feiāer also found it strange and turned to He Xue and the other two girls, saying, "Iāve heard Ling Corporationās apple cider is quite good, letās drink that!"
"Sure, but Iāve heard that apple cider is hard to find, it must be expensive, right?" He Xue asked.
"Itās not expensive, only twenty yuan a bottle, seven hundred and fifty milliliters!" said the food stall owner.
"Then letās start with a bottle, if it tastes good, weāll order more!"
Li Feiāer glanced at Ling Feng and then said.
The food stall owner nodded, asked Chen Han and the others what beer theyād like, and then turned to get busy.
With apple cider as the topic, the guys started talking about Ling Corporation. Everyone knew something about Ling Corporation, so they spoke passionately.
Ling Feng smiled silently, thinking to himself that his companyās reputation among the common people is still quite good!
As everyone chatted, no one mentioned religious matters, and Chen Han remained silent, almost making Ling Feng think he wasnāt a believer.
However, if everyone present, except him, hadnāt joined any religious group, thatās a good thing. At least it shows that most young people havenāt been brainwashed.
But just as everyone was chatting and waiting for the food, a few meters away at another table, the seven or eight young people dining there suddenly made a strange move.
Just as their food was served, before starting to eat, the seven or eight people suddenly raised their hands to the sky and chanted, "Thank you, Great Deity, for blessing us with abundant food..."
This attracted everyoneās attention.
The other party didnāt care about the surrounding gazes and, after finishing their prayer-like gesture, they lowered their heads and started eating.
After a few glances, Hu Jian turned around and said, "Itās strange, why are more people becoming religious recently!"
"Who knows, our manager held a meeting today and ended up preaching some doctrine instead of business matters!"
He Xue pursed her lips and continued, "Everyone secretly rolled their eyes in their minds but didnāt dare to say anything, so we just sat silently for over an hour!"
"Doesnāt your boss care?" Hu Jian asked.
"Care about what? If the manager dares to hold a meeting like this, the boss must have tacitly approved!" He Xue replied.
"Your company is too much, but weāre okay. There are people in our company who believe, but they donāt pull others along with them," a girl said.
Ling Feng listened quietly, then glanced at Chen Han.
He didnāt say anything either, just smiled and nodded.
The discussion about the group at the other table ended there, and no one said anything further. But unexpectedly, just as the seven or eight people started eating, someone at a nearby table couldnāt help saying, "What nonsense Great Deity, claiming food is a heavenly gift, itās clearly all grown and raised by farmers!"
These words were full of provocation, and Ling Feng turned to look, finding a young man with glasses, who looked about twenty years old.
But this guy dared to challenge the seven or eight people next to him alone, which was commendable courage.
Ling Feng originally thought that once he shouted, a conflict would inevitably arise. But unexpectedly, the seven or eight who had prayed acted as if they hadnāt heard it, continued to eat their food, conversing quietly, completely ignoring the young man.
This surprised Ling Feng a bit, thinking to himself that these people have good cultivation, or perhaps their doctrine doesnāt allow them to engage in conflicts with others?
The young man with glasses said a few more words, and seeing no reaction from the other side, stopped provoking and continued to eat his food.
Ling Feng glanced over, didnāt pay more attention, and continued chatting with those at his table.
Whether it was because of Li Feiāerās presence or not, the young men at the table were happy to chat with him, asking questions while also sneaking glances at Li Feiāer.
Ling Feng didnāt mind, appreciating beauty is a common trait among men, as long as itās not excessive, itās fine.
After the dishes were served, the owner also brought the apple cider Li Feiāer ordered. The packaging and color of the cider seemed fine, and the girls poured themselves a glass each. Li Feiāer was the first to take a sip.
Then she frowned!
Ling Feng saw this and asked, "Whatās wrong?"
"Itās fake," Li Feiāer said.
"Fake?"
He Xue was stunned, quickly took a sip, and then smacked her lips, "Tastes pretty good, I had apple cider once before, and this is the taste."
"Let me try."
Ling Feng took Li Feiāerās glass and sipped it lightly.
He also noticed that the apple ciderās taste was impure, not brewed, but blended with flavoring!
He frowned slightly, but didnāt say much. He smiled at Li Feiāer, "The taste is okay, itās fine."
From his eyes, Li Feiāer could see he didnāt want to make a scene, so she nodded and said to He Xue, "Maybe Iām too sensitive, it was a long time ago when I last drank it, I forgot the taste!"
"Thatās normal; the cider used to be hard to find, but now itās available at food stalls. Weāll be able to enjoy it more often!"
He Xue said, raising her glass, "To this wonderful evening, letās drink!"
Hearing this, Li Feiāer also raised her glass, but only took a small sip and then put the glass aside, not wanting to touch it again.
Upon seeing this, Ling Feng smiled, then stood up and said, "Keep chatting, Iāll go to the restroom."
"Thereās a public restroom down the street, not far!" Hu Jian pointed out.
Ling Feng nodded, walked away, and wove through the crowd to the street corner.
Then he took out his original phone and called Gu Li.
As soon as the call connected, Gu Li smiled and asked, "Boss, howās ordinary life treating you?"
"Itās fine, pretty flavorful!"
Ling Feng said, then quickly got to the point: "Iām calling for business, just had food at a stall, and they actually sold apple cider here, seven hundred and fifty milliliters for twenty yuan!"
"Huh?"
Gu Li was stunned, his eyes widened in surprise, "How is that possible? With our current production, itās only sold in specialized smoke and liquor shops!"
"Exactly, I tasted it and confirmed itās blended. You need to have someone check this immediately, donāt take it lightly!" Ling Feng said.
