Chapter 121 Farming Mode Started
The two houses at the end of the village are the best, No. 5 and No. 6, which happened to be drawn by Xiang Zhaozhao and Peng Chang. The only difference is that No. 5 has a relatively clean toilet and shower room.
Xiang Zhaozhao was in a good mood. She loved cleanliness, so this couldn't be more convenient.
Peng Chang, who is the oldest and has debuted the longest among the guests, was dissatisfied.
The toilets were all outside, so would it be convenient for him to run out in the middle of the night? So without much thought, he proposed to exchange houses with Xiang Zhaozhao, using his old age as an excuse.
Although the program team said that regrets are not allowed, since the guests have reached a consensus on the goal, they don't want to say much.
But Xiang Zhaozhao was a young, energetic and delicate girl, so there was no way she would change houses as Peng Chang wished.
"Didn't Brother Chang tell us to treat you as our peer? How come you changed your mind in less than half an hour? Besides, she's a girl, and it's inconvenient without a toilet or shower room."
Peng Chang, who originally thought he had it all figured out, was choked by Xiang Zhaozhao's words. He had no choice but to reveal his difficulties, "I urinate more frequently at night, and it's really inconvenient without a toilet. You can come to my place to wash up anytime, it's close anyway."
"How can that be? It's not right for a girl like me to run into your room every day. It's better for me to have my own room." Xiang Zhaozhao didn't give him face and rejected her reply immediately. She was joking. Calling him Brother Chang was a sign of respecting the seniority standards in the entertainment industry, but it didn't mean that his status was really higher than hers. She was only twenty-four and had a promising future, unlike Peng Chang who was in his forties and was still stuck in awkward talk shows.
Peng Chang didn't expect that he would say something as embarrassing as his frequent urination, and Xiang Zhaozhao would not give him face. The calm expression he had maintained could no longer be maintained and his face turned black on the spot.
"I can be your father, can't you respect the elderly and love the young?"
"No, no, no, Brother Chang, my dad dotes on me very much and he will never let me live in a bad place. Besides, you said that we should respect the elderly, but you don't even love the young yourself." Xiang Zhaozhao was not willing to lose face at all.
Peng Chang was so angry after being humiliated again and again that he didn't want to say anything. He snorted coldly and went back to his room and slammed the door.
The director was beaming with joy when he saw these materials. He had never expected that it would be so dramatic from the beginning. The ratings will definitely explode once it is released. Don't think that they will consider the guests and cut out the scenes that are not beneficial to them. They are all unknown actors and have little say. The dominant power of editing lies in the hands of the program team.
If it was Yi Jie, there would be room for negotiation, but he observed the footage of Yi Jie, she was pretty good, with a good mentality, and a peaceful life. She and Yu Mo were like sisters, and she could accept such a bad environment. No wonder she was so popular. Isn't this the control group?
After everyone found their own houses and settled down, the director used a pager to call everyone to gather at the threshing ground in the village.
Yi Jie and Yu Mo were not far away and were the second group to arrive.
Guo Sheng and Xu Guanyu were already waiting there.
"Yi Jie, Yu Mo, how is your room?" Xu Guanyu asked with a bitter face. His room looked okay from the outside, but there was only a bed and a stove inside.
"I'm definitely the worst, a cowshed with leaks on all sides. Hahaha. Yumo lives in a small wooden house, which is a little better than me." Yi Jie said optimistically, pointing at herself.
"Wow, you are such an unlucky girl. You have to ask me for help in renovating your house. I am very strong. My house is OK, it is made of yellow mud. It's just a little dark, but everything else is OK. Guanyu's house is OK, it is made of bricks and tiles, but has fewer features." Guo Sheng looked at Yi Jie with some sympathy. He was a daughter slave, and Yi Jie's bright eyes reminded him of the little princess at home.
"Thank you, Brother Sheng. It's okay. I can do it myself. It's a different kind of life to be able to get away from the city and experience this kind of life. It's just right for me to relax after the exams." Yi Jie appreciated the other party's kindness. She wanted to complete the house renovation by herself. Physical work was nothing to her.
"Good girl! Now I know how you can win so many championships. Your mentality is great." Guo Sheng praised wholeheartedly.
In comparison, Xu Guanyu felt much more comfortable. If there were not enough things, he could just find a way to add more. At least he didn't have to repair the house himself.
"Hey, you're all here. I told you that Brother Chang and Xiang Zhaozhao had a quarrel." He Lianxin came over at a trot, watching the fun and shouting loudly.
"Why are you arguing?" Guo Sheng asked puzzledly.
He Lianxin was about to speak when he heard Peng Chang coughing behind him.
Peng Chang walked into the team with a gloomy face and stared at He Lianxin, causing him to shut his mouth.
Xiang Zhaozhao arrived late and seemed to have put on some makeup. Yi Jie guessed that she was living quite well.
Xiang Zhaozhao and Peng Chang were disgusted with each other. One stood at the front of the team and the other at the back. They didn't want to get close to each other. Yi Jie sighed in her heart, this is the plastic friendship in the entertainment industry. They were obviously very friendly with each other at the beginning. I have learned a lot.
The director team took out a task board and spoke to all the guests.
"From now on, every meal will be solved by yourselves. Here are some ways to get food for your reference. Of course, if you have a better way, you can do it yourself. The rule of our program is that there are no rules. As long as you earn it by your own ability and it is legal and compliant, everything is ok."
Everyone looked at the words on the task board. They were all farm work that could be done in the village now, and each household needed help, such as planting vegetables, tilling the fields, harvesting rice, threshing, picking peanuts, corn, etc. The villagers would provide meals or exchange them for low rewards.
"Ah? I can't do these. Is there nothing else to do?" Xiang Zhaozhao had thought about hardship, but she had never thought it would be so hard. If she did farm work, not only would her clothes be ruined, but she might also get her skin peeled off by the scorching sun. She had just had a beauty treatment before coming to the show.
"You can figure it out yourself. This is provided by the program team." The director said ruthlessly.
Xiang Zhaozhao curled her lips in displeasure. What? I clearly told her at the beginning that she was going to experience country life and find ways to improve the lives of the villagers, but in the end she had to be responsible for everything.
Yu Mo was also very nervous, as she couldn't do any farm work. But seeing Yi Jie's calm look, she felt relieved. She would just follow Yi Jie anyway, as she was so smart, she would definitely find a way.
Yi Jie does have a small plan that needs to be implemented urgently, but she needs to investigate before making any final conclusion.
"That's all. There's nothing else to do. Everyone can go about their daily routine." The director clapped his hands, signaling for the group to disperse.
"Hey, Yi Jie, Yu Mo, wait a minute!" Guo Sheng and Xu Guanyu called out to the two people who were about to leave.
"What's wrong, Brother Sheng?" Yu Mo asked.
"That's right. I think you two girls probably don't have much experience in farm work. I did some of it when I was a child. Guanyu is a boy and can endure hardships. I see there's a job of picking corn over there, and the pay is quite a lot of food. How about you two help out and we can share the food. Let's talk about it after today." Brother Sheng said with a gentle smile. Xu Guanyu next to him didn't stop him and seemed willing.
Yi Jie had a good impression of the two of them, and she would never be stingy in repaying anyone who was kind to her.
"Brother Sheng, I actually have a little idea here, and I'm planning to investigate it. How about you two go ahead and do it, and Yumo and I will give it a try first. If it works, the four of us can do it together?"
"This..." Guo Sheng and Xu Guanyu looked at each other with doubt. In their minds, Yi Jie was smart, but she was only a sixteen-year-old girl after all. How could she have much common sense?
"Oh, let me try first. If I really can't handle it, I'm not stupid. I won't come to you two brothers for help." Yi Jie smiled brightly.
"Okay, then you two should be careful. Come to us if you have any problems." Guo Sheng nodded helplessly and left with Xu Guanyu.
Xiang Zhaozhao, who watched the whole process, felt very unbalanced. She was also a little girl, why didn't they come to ask? To put it bluntly, they just picked up Hong's thighs and hugged her. What a virtue! Xiang Zhaozhao secretly spat and turned away angrily. She insisted on living a more enjoyable life than others by relying on herself. Just wait and see!
"Xiao Jie, what do you have in mind?" Although Yu Mo trusted Yi Jie blindly, he was still worried.
"Didn't the production team say that we can't use cell phones?"
"No." Yu Mo shook his head blankly. What's the use of a cell phone when he can't even eat.
"It doesn't say you can't use your own things."
"No." Yu Mo was still confused. The things were useful, but his wallet had been taken away and all the hard currency was gone. What was the use of the other things?
"Just come with me." Yi Jie held the dazed Yu Mo in her arms and wandered around the village, looking for target users.
"This is it!"
The red walls and black tiles and the layout of the small four-seat house show that it is a wealthy family.
"Knock, knock, knock!" Yi Jie knocked on the door gently.
The kind-faced old lady opened the door and saw two pretty girls standing at the door. She asked them what they wanted in dialect.
The Sichuan dialect is easy to understand, and Yi Jie understood it immediately.
With a sweet smile, she said, "Grandma, we are here to discuss making money with you. Can we come in and talk?"
The old lady hesitated for a while, then remembered that her son had said that some big names from TV would come to the village recently, and she probably thought that these two were the ones. She didn't want to neglect them, so she let them in.
The two little girls couldn't do anything, but the man carrying a big black brick behind them was a little scary, and the old lady stared at him for a long time.
"Melon, melon, someone is looking for you." The old lady shouted.
A dark-skinned man in a washed-out shirt opened the door curtain and walked out of the house.
When he saw Yi Jie and the other person, he greeted them in difficult Mandarin.
"Uncle, it's okay. Just speak in dialect. We can understand you." Yi Jie said sincerely.
The uncle breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this. That was good, otherwise he would have been sweating profusely while talking.
The uncle who switched to the dialect spoke fluently. Yi Jie had a good eye and she picked the village chief's house. This uncle Qian Jianguo is the current village chief of Qianjia Village.
His family is a veritable "official" family. His great-grandfather has been the village chief. Therefore, Uncle Jianguo is also the most knowledgeable person in the village. He is also one of only two people who have been to the city, the other one being his father.
"Uncle Jianguo, I want to discuss business with you." Yi Jie stated her purpose calmly.
"Business?" Uncle Jianguo asked doubtfully.
"Yes, you recognize this one, right?" Yi Jie took off the silver bracelet on her hand. It was made by her mother, who said that the silver bracelet could ward off evil spirits and asked her to wear it. She would use it today.
"I know him, what's wrong?" Uncle Jianguo asked puzzledly.
"I'll mortgage this to you first and exchange it for some food and the peppercorns hanging under your eaves. Oh, if you have other local specialties, you can also exchange some of them." Yi Jie finished her request in one breath.
Yumo and Uncle Jianguo on the side were both stunned.
Yumo was thinking, could it be like this?
Uncle Jianguo: Are all the people in the city so generous? How can they just give such a big silver bracelet?
"No, no, it's too expensive. Those peppercorns are worthless. I'll just give you some. And there's food. We just happen to want to eat. Let's eat together?" Uncle Jianguo was very simple.
"Uncle, what I want is quite a large amount. Don't worry, I will redeem the bracelet when I make money. I just want you to help collect it for a while. By the way, please calculate how much you want for me later so that we can settle the bill then. If my business is successful, every household in the village can join in and live a better life in the future." Yi Jie explained with a smile.
"This...are you sure about this, little girl?" Uncle Jianguo still looked distrustful.
Yu Mo suddenly had an idea and quickly increased his bet.
"Uncle, the little girl you're talking about is the top scholar in the country and the world. She's amazing."
Uncle Jianguo's pupils trembled. Oh my god, a girl can also become the top scholar. How old is she? Is she possessed by the God of Literature?
"Are you a college student?" Uncle Jianguo's voice trembled a little. People in his village thought that college students were the most amazing. No one in the village had passed the exam for so many years. Of course, it was also because of poverty. The first time he went to the city with his father, he envied those college students. They were full of energy and different from the young people in the village. They spoke in an organized and elegant manner.
"Uncle, she's not just a college student, she's from the top university in the country. Peking University and Tsinghua University know that they're vying for her!" Yu Mo kept flattering her.
"I know, I know!" Uncle Jianguo nodded excitedly. "Kid, don't give me your bracelet. I believe in you and you will definitely make us rich."
"No, no, uncle, you keep it first. It's the same if I take it back later. Business is not a joke. You have to pay for what you owe." Yi Jie stuffed the bracelet into Uncle Jianguo's hand.
"Well, fine then. I'll let your aunt and the others pack your things and calculate the price. If you need anything, feel free to contact me." Uncle Jianguo took the bracelet. What the college student said must have his own reasons. He was uneducated, so he just listened.
Because of Uncle Jianguo's special instructions, his wife and mother were very enthusiastic and kept stuffing things into the snakeskin bag, for fear that Yi Jie would suffer a loss.
Fresh fruits and vegetables, a big bag of farm preserved goods, two sacks of local peppercorns, and a bag of dried fruit that is also grown in abundance here, a kind of pine nut, but much bigger in size, and much more fragrant after being fried than those on the market. The villagers call it local melon seeds.
Uncle Jianguo kindly called his two sons to carry the things to Yumo's wooden house, mainly because Yijie's cowshed was temporarily uninhabitable.
After the two left, Yu Mo asked excitedly, "Xiao Jie, what are we going to do next?"
This is what it feels like to be led by a big boss. She has never experienced this before. She is full of expectations for the next half month.
"Next, let's cook and eat." Yi Jie said slowly.
"Huh? Let's eat now." Yu Mo thought Yi Jie was going to do something big, and felt a little disappointed.
"Look how anxious you are. Fill your stomach first, and you'll know later." Yi Jie scratched her high nose bridge.
"Okay, then I'll go wash the pots and dishes." Yu Mo stood up and walked towards the gray stove. She couldn't do technical work, but she could do physical work.
Yi Jie took out her cell phone, and hope suddenly rose in her heart.
In this era when live streaming is not popular, she wants to be the first person to eat soup! Right here! Use these delicious agricultural products to create a trend!
