[I failed to acquire the rice noodles earlier. This time, I must purchase the white peaches!]

Five minutes swiftly elapsed. Just as the white peaches in the shopping cart were placed on the shelves, they were promptly snatched away by online users within a few minutes.

[I got it!]

[Me too. I wanted to buy a few more boxes, but there’s a limit of one box per person.]

[I also wished to purchase additional boxes. It’s regrettable.]

Liao Ning explained, “The limitation of one box per person is in place to allow more users to buy and enjoy these delicious white peaches. They want to ensure fairness for those who wish to try them. Some users bought a large quantity of rice noodles earlier because they were unaware of this restriction, while others couldn’t purchase even a single one.”

The orchard’s yield was not substantial, producing only a million catties of white peaches per year. Each box could hold approximately five catties of white peaches, resulting in 200,000 boxes of fruit. Only 200,000 users would have the opportunity to buy the white peaches.

However, following the wave of fans during noon, the online viewership of Liao Nings live-stream had skyrocketed to a staggering 110 million. To this vast number of users, these 200,000 boxes of white peaches were inconsequential, merely a drop in the ocean. Many users began tagging the farm officials and suggesting they increase their planting efforts to ensure that everyone could purchase the white peaches.

“I apologize for not being able to accommodate everyone’s desired purchase.

Due to the lukewarm sales of white peaches in the past, the farm only conducted a trial planting. Now that we are aware of the users’ demand, we will definitely make sure that they can buy white peaches the year after next!”

These were the words spoken by Song He. He had initiated a video call with Liao Ning and requested to address the users directly.

[This is the farm owner, Song He.]

[I’m relieved to hear the farm owner’s assurance. I trust in the owner!]

[Since the owner personally made this promise, I eagerly wish to get as many peaches as possible in the following year! ]

Song He’s presence seemed to bring about a sense of calm among everyone. The users gradually settled down, although they felt disappointed for not being able to purchase the white peaches.

After concluding the video call with Song He, Liao Ning felt compelled to address the pressing issue of ancient food culture with everyone. “I have something important to share with all of you. Considering the two disruptions we experienced during today’s live-stream, I believe it’s crucial for everyone to understand the current state of ancient food culture.”

“First and foremost, it’s essential to recognize that the utilization of ancient delicacies and dishes can help alleviate mental strain. Recently, this has been confirmed by officials as both true and effective. Consequently, many citizens of the alliance are purchasing ingredients from farms and learning food production from various live-streamers specializing in ancient cuisine. This is a positive development. Not only can citizens of the alliance spend less money on treatment compared to buying mental strength potions, but it can also stimulate the economy in the field of ancient food culture.”

Liao Ning shifted the topic. “However, has anyone considered the implications of the sudden surge in popularity for the Interstellar Alliance Research Institute and interstellar farms?”

“The two shortages we experienced today indicate that both the research institute and the farm were unprepared for this significant boom in food culture. However, we cannot blame them for not foreseeing and adequately preparing for it.”

“I believe none of us here could have anticipated that ancient food culture, which has been relatively dormant for over a decade, would suddenly gain popularity due to a food competition.”

“Do the research institute and the farm wish to capitalize on this opportunity? Of course, they do, but they are hesitant to take the risk. They are well aware that they cannot afford to gamble.”

“Song He, the owner, and Director Lin Song took charge when the research institute and the farm were on the brink of bankruptcy. It took them over a decade to rescue both institutions from that dire state. They simply do not have the resources to gamble.”

“It’s precisely because I understand the challenges they faced that I agreed to help them promote their products in the live-stream. I sincerely hope that all of you can show them more understanding and exercise patience. Let’s allow them to increase their production capacity and focus on research and development to catch up with everyone’s demands under the new policies of the alliance. Please!”

The woman in the live-stream had a genuine and earnest expression. Her words were rational and reasonable. For a moment, the users in the live-stream began to feel that they had been overly demanding and started to reflect on themselves.

“I have been taking their efforts for granted. I assumed that the interstellar farm and the research institute should be able to immediately provide an ample supply of ingredients whenever we needed them. But I forgot that they were struggling at their lowest point..”
