The situation was this: Zhang Tianxing, after finishing his canned food, needed to relieve himself.
On his way to do so, he encountered a foreign visitor, a beautiful White Russian woman.
Initially, the two had no interaction. As they passed each other, the White Russian woman suddenly collapsed with a "bang!"
Zhang Tianxing was somewhat bewildered. What had happened? He had merely brushed past her, and she had fallen to the ground, seemingly unable to get up.
Moreover, she began to convulse, her face turning pale and her breathing becoming rapid.
Sensing something was wrong, Zhang Tianxing quickly turned and knelt beside her. Based on his years of experience, he surmised that the White Russian woman was suffering from acute heart disease.
As a modern youth committed to the "four loves and five beauties" (an idiom for modern virtues), Zhang Tianxing extended a helping hand at this critical moment.
He first gently laid her flat on the ground, then reached into her small bag.
He knew that people with this condition usually carried quick-acting heart medicine.
"Hey! Young man with such a refined appearance, why are you rummaging through the girl's bag instead of helping her?"
"Exactly! This is an international trade fair. Don't harbor any wicked thoughts or disgrace China's reputation abroad."
"Let go of that girl, let me save her..."
A burly man lunged forward, intending to intervene physically.
Zhang Tianxing raised his hand to stop him. "If you're a doctor, then step up. If not, let me handle it."
These few words seemed to carry immense weight. The burly man halted, and the surrounding noise died down.
Everyone watched Zhang Tianxing's every move, wondering if he would bring honor to the country or further disgrace it.
Zhang Tianxing spotted a small plastic bottle containing pills. He took it out, sniffed it, and confirmed: yes, it was the scent of quick-acting heart medicine.
He directly parted the White Russian woman's lips and administered the pill. The burly man beside them offered water.
Zhang Tianxing then poured the water into the White Russian woman's mouth.
"Cough!" A series of rapid coughs ensued, and the White Russian woman's condition stabilized.
At this point, staff members arrived with medical personnel.
Seeing this, Zhang Tianxing stood up. Professionals had arrived; let them handle professional matters.
After assessing the situation, the medical staff carefully lifted the White Russian woman onto a stretcher. A female nurse among the emergency responders gave Zhang Tianxing a thumbs-up.
"Fortunately, you administered the quick-acting heart medicine. You did well."
A man, looking visibly anxious, approached and followed the medical team.
He had momentarily lost sight of the young lady, only for her to collapse. By the time he caught up, she was already being carried away by the medical staff.
This man's expression was grim. If anything were to happen to the young lady, he would be doomed.
He prayed that she would be alright. He glanced at Zhang Tianxing before turning and hurrying after the medical personnel.
Following this minor incident, Zhang Tianxing's actions had earned the approval of most people.
Coupled with the recent surge in reports about crayfish and the fact that Wen Qing, a top scorer in the college entrance examination, was working at Zhang Ji Crayfish, the dish had begun to acquire a cultural veneer.
The fundamental issue with crayfish was its lack of cultural depth, which resulted in a lower level of acceptance in China.
Shortly after, news arrived from the hospital: everything was normal, and no complications had occurred.
The team leader for the international trade fair breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, no major issues had arisen.
A supervisor, Group Leader Chen, asked, "Was the person who administered the first aid an exhibitor? Where is his booth? We need to express our gratitude."
Zhou Yuanyuan, who was working at the entrance, suddenly felt stunned. He had seen everything clearly just moments ago.
The person who saved the White Russian woman was none other than the Zhang Ji Crayfish crew, whom he had relegated to an undesirable location.
Their assigned spot was the worst in the entire exhibition, not even marked on the directory.
This time, both Zhang Ji Crayfish and Yao Ji Canned Food had been sent to that location.
In such a place, they could practically consider their business for the exhibition over. It was unlikely anyone would venture there; the directory indicated that area was for staff rest.
He couldn't avoid reporting it. There were records, so Zhou Yuanyuan had no choice but to step forward and admit in a voice barely audible even to himself,
"They were assigned to the staff resting area by me."
Group Leader Chen's face turned red with anger. He suppressed his urge to lash out.
"You assigned them? You will immediately arrange a better location for them. Get them to a prominent spot at the exhibition. Without them, this exhibition could face significant problems, and we would all suffer the consequences."
Zhou Yuanyuan looked dejected. Who could have anticipated such an event? Regret washed over him; he wished he had known beforehand.
He had initially intended to do someone a favor, but it had backfired. He could only go and see what this crayfish vendor was like.
He had hoped to curry favor, but instead, he had gotten himself into trouble.
Zhou Yuanyuan dejectedly walked away, arriving alone at Zhang Tianxing's booth.
Zhu Dayong saw Zhou Yuanyuan and chuckled, "Comrade, are you here to supervise our work? We are from a small place and don't know much, causing trouble for the leadership."
Gao Tianming burst into laughter beside him.
Zhou Yuanyuan's face flushed crimson. Zhang Tianxing, seeing the situation, approached and greeted him.
"You're here. What's the matter? Just say it directly. Dayong, go get a few bottles of canned food from Brother Geng and let Brother Zhou try them."
Seeing Zhang Tianxing's demeanor, Zhou Yuanyuan regretted his own foolishness. He should have just watched the drama unfold as a mere mortal when gods were clashing, rather than impudently trying to bolster a god.
Now, his situation was precarious, depending entirely on how this god chose to perceive it.
"Boss Zhang, there's no need to trouble yourself. I'm here to inform you that two positions have become available, and you can move there. They are good locations, and with two days left in the trade fair, you might be able to secure some deals."
With a good location, sales were guaranteed, it just depended on the volume.
Zhang Tianxing was surprised. This was good news. They could change locations mid-exhibition? It was likely that his act of helping someone had earned him recognition from the leadership.
It seemed doing good deeds brought good rewards. He'd continue to do good deeds in the future.
He had also enjoyed several bottles of Brother Geng's canned food. "Brother Zhou, Brother Geng is also very generous, he even gives me canned food to eat."
"Let's move them together. This place is spacious and has high foot traffic. It's a good location."
Moving one booth or two made no difference. This god was easy to please, and he had to treat Zhang Tianxing's words as gospel.
Otherwise, Group Leader Chen would surely make him regret it. If he was labeled as an incompetent worker, his future career in the unit would be ruined, and he would face dire consequences.
