After rebirth, I rejected the rich yandere lady-Chapter 712 - 305: Zhu Yulan: "I am your subordinate now._2

"This is obviously a frame-up, and the authorities haven't even reached a conclusion yet. People nowadays just love to spectate and don't care about the truth at all."

"Exactly, our boss is such a good person, offering the best salary and benefits among all the tea shops. I really wouldn't want the tea shop to close down..."

"The boss, the boss is back!"

An employee spotted Xu Musen and his group rushing back and immediately shouted excitedly, dispelling the gloom.

Now, as Xu Musen returned with his group of women, he resembled the Monkey King who had just caused havoc in heaven and was returning to the Mountain of Flowers and Fruit.

"I'm back, everyone. You've worked hard."

Xu Musen observed that everything in the store was still in order, even though there wasn't a single customer, and they were still at their posts.

This was also a form of invisible PR and image rescue.

The inside and outside of the store were also spotlessly clean, which touched him deeply.

Especially Zhao Lianmai, who still had traces of spoiled fruit on her, and her forehead was covered in sweat, yet she was still busy on the front lines.

"Xiao Mai, thank you for taking care of the shop."

Xu Musen spoke, truly valuing this young employee he had hired.

Zhao Lianmai wiped the sweat from her forehead; her wheat-colored skin appeared quite moisturized at the moment. She looked at Xu Musen, and after a moment, she smiled lightly.

"No need to thank me, just give us some overtime pay."

Zhao Lianmai rarely smiled and rarely joked.

This kind of oppressive atmosphere also needed such jokes to lighten the mood.

Understanding her point, Xu Musen smiled and said, "Don't worry, after this is over, everyone will get a big bonus!"

"Great, great, great!"

The employees in the shop also cheered, their fatigue swept away in an instant, their motivation soaring.

Xu Musen immediately switched into work mode.

He started handling the public opinion caused by this incident.

It was now around five or six in the afternoon, the busiest time for people getting off work, and he estimated that more people would come to "visit the scene" soon.

"Boss, should we close the doors for a couple of days to let this blow over? The crowd is too impulsive right now. This afternoon, a parent of a student who got sick from drinking bad tea came to make a scene at the shop and almost smashed our doors."

An employee said, still a bit shaken.

Xu Musen shook his head, "No, not only will we not close, we will light up the sign even brighter."

Xu Musen had just received a call from the safety bureau. Within an hour, they would release a report, although it wouldn't immediately determine Huang Tianming's guilt.

But Luo Hao had admitted to giving the students expired milk tea to drink, and a clarification report would soon be available.

The general public might be swept up in various conspiracy theories, but official confirmations like these could recover most people's opinions.

"Zhou Hangyu, Li Rundong, you two split up and go notify all our stores to keep operating, and also to post notices."

The two immediately nodded. "Should the notices mention the clarification?"

"No, trying to prove our innocence before official evidence comes out might actually backfire."

"So what should we write?"

Xu Musen smiled, "Just write 'Countdown one hour, reveal the dark truth.'"

The obviously provocative title made the two men stunned.

Zhou Hangyu scratched his head, "Brother Sen, won't this just attract more onlookers?"

"We need more buzz. I've already wasted an entire afternoon. The peak period after work is the best time to reverse public opinion. The more people there are, the greater the impact when we present the official report."

"I understand now!"

The two immediately nodded. It was a bold move, but it was indeed a way to maximize exposure, and they quickly set off to arrange things at all the large stores.

Xu Musen then turned his attention to Ma Yaxing, "You also upload this message to our online client, and gather all the customer service staff for today. Once the official report is out, start trending on forums, websites, and Weibo, trying to reach every person in Huhai on their phones."

"Okay, I'm on it."

Ma Yaxing also immediately grabbed his laptop and started to work.

Afterwards, Xu Musen looked toward Liu Rushuang, "Mom, I also need a favor from you. Don't you also know a few media outlets?"

"Are you thinking about having the media also clear things up for you?"

Liu Rushuang had handled many such PR crises before, and official media coverage was indeed very convincing.

It could turn black into white.

This is why many large corporations have their own news departments, and even national governments keep major media under their control.

"No, proving our innocence isn't that attractive. And even if the official announcement comes out later, many will still think it's some collusion between officials and businesses.

Mom, I suggest that tonight we spread rumors stating that early tomorrow morning, a mystery media will conduct a surprise inspection at our tea shop to find evidence of adulterated fruit."

Xu Musen was still employing reverse strategies.

A company proving its innocence versus a news raid on a black workshop — everyone found the latter far more interesting.

Listening, Liu Rushuang's eyes lit up, "I understand. First, arouse everyone's curiosity and sense of justice, wait for tomorrow's media raid to feel more real."

Xu Musen felt that he and his future mother-in-law had a special understanding. Smiling, he nodded, "Exactly, compared to aloof official statements, people always believe more in what they 'see with their own eyes.' Using unorthodox methods to clear our name is a tried and tested tactic, and since we're innocent, we should be ready for tomorrow. It might even turn into a great opportunity to boost our popularity."
