Chapter 229 The control group of the all-powerful movie queen (26)
The director waited until they were finished and started telling them the rules:
"This season our recording location will be moved to the mountains, but there is nothing there, so you need to build your own wooden houses and cultivate vegetable fields. We have helped you find a few trees that can be cut down, but you will need to replant saplings in the future.
Cut down a few trees and replenish a few saplings. In addition, you are allowed to exchange rice, flour, grain and oil with the villagers. You can decide what to exchange for it."
"..."
Now even Chu Tian, who debuted in variety shows and is known as the "Queen of Variety Shows", wants to quit:
"director,
Not to mention that there are only four of us, and Yinyin and I are still girls. Do you think that with our thin arms and legs, we can build a wooden house and create a vegetable field in half a month? You think so highly of us!"
The director smiled warmly: "You have to believe in yourselves, you can definitely do it!"
"..."
Then, they moved.
It was hard to adapt to the farmhouse at the foot of the mountain, which was decorated more and more warmly, and moved to the mountains where there was nothing and they had to work hard to build infrastructure on their own.
In fact, it’s not really a big mountain.
However, the mountain road is difficult to walk, and it is impossible to drive in, so it can only be carried manually.
Xu Yin is fine,
She only has one suitcase, and she is very strong, so she can carry it all the way up the mountain.
Chu Tian was miserable. She had three large suitcases by herself. The assistant sent her there and then went back. The staff still had equipment and machines to transport, so they couldn't spare any time to help her. She almost cried.
Thanks to Xu Yin's strong strength, he could help her carry a lot of things, and Feng Shaoyu and Bai Ning also took turns to help her carry some of the things. Otherwise, the variety show star would be defeated by the variety show, and even have the idea of retiring from the industry.
Before the wooden houses were built, they could only live in tents.
Xu Yin distributed sachets to prevent snakes and insects to the guests.
"Xu Yin, have you prepared this? Do you know that we are going to record in the mountains this season?"
Xu Yin paused: "No, I brought it with me last time I came here."
"That's it." Chu Tian laughed and teased her,
"You shouldn't have bought it when you came to record last season, right? But you didn't use it? Hahaha! Fortunately, you brought it with you.
Otherwise it would be miserable. The director is not a good person! He didn’t give us any time to prepare.
I'm not mentally prepared,
He was driven straight up the mountain."
The director has become accustomed to the fact that guests always think he is not a good person,
He smiled and said: "These program teams have prepared, but you have to bring something in exchange."
"...Here we go again! I won't listen, I won't listen!"
Chu Tian pretended to cover her ears and took Xu Yin to collect firewood.
Dinner hasn’t been served yet!
Although we have brought the pots and pans, what about the stove? Is it made of stones?
Xu Yin thought for a while and suggested: "How about we build a baking kiln? I see that the villagers here grow some sweet potatoes every year. I asked them to change to some sweet potatoes. It will be good to bake them later."
When Chu Tian heard this, she immediately thought of roasting sweet potatoes over firewood, but——
"It's easy for you to say. Who among us knows how to do that?"
"I can!" Xu Yin said, "I have studied the baking kiln, and I remember downloading the step-by-step drawings..."
She took out her mobile phone and pretended to look through the photo album, but in fact she pulled out the kiln drawings from the system warehouse and took a photo.
Chu Tian couldn't understand the drawings, but seeing that Xu Yin was serious, she said:
"Then build one! It doesn't matter if it doesn't work. We're recording the show anyway. You found good content for the director, and he couldn't even be happy in time. Director! Yinyin helped you find good material, shouldn't you reward her with something?
?”
The director said nothing,
I asked my assistant to deliver a basket of sweet potatoes.
"..."
Does this refer to Xu Yin building a baking kiln?
When Bai Ning and Feng Shaoyu came back from cutting a piece of wood and filling a bucket of mountain spring water, they returned to the camp and found that the two female guests had made themselves look ashen as if they were playing with mud.
"What are you two doing?"
"Teacher Bai, Brother Yu, are you back? Come and take a look, Yinyin has built a baking kiln. If it succeeds, we will have roasted sweet potatoes to eat tonight!"
Success is definitely a success.
Xu Yin’s craftsmanship in building a baking kiln is truly that of a master craftsman.
If one day I get really poor, I might be able to earn a few bucks from this craft to spend.
"Oh!" Bai Ning and Feng Shaoyu looked interested, "Xu Yin can do this? It's amazing!"
"But where did the cement and bricks come from?" Feng Shaoyu asked curiously.
"Hehe, we exchanged ten roasted sweet potatoes for the director." Chu Tian said, "Brother Yu, don't even think about using these to build a house. The director said that if Yinyin builds a baking kiln and contributes to the show, it will be half-sold and half-gifted.
We won’t have this benefit in the future.”
Feng Shaoyu: "..."
Another bad day for the director!
That night, Xu Yin, a kiln expert, used the built kiln to bake sweet potatoes one after another for the guests and the director team.
The sweet potatoes roasted over real firewood, without honey, still have the sweet aroma of honey roasted on the skin, which won unanimous praise from everyone.
After that, they started the recording routine of "The Log House in the Mountains".
The two male guests were responsible for cutting down the trees and planing the boards, but Xu Yin took the initiative to ask her to chop down the trees. She was very strong, which saved her time.
But she was rejected by Bai Ning and Feng Shaoyu. No matter how strong she was, she was still a delicate girl in their eyes.
Before, she plowed the fields and planted rice seedlings by herself, but they didn't know how to drive those machines, so they shamelessly won.
If Xu Yin were to chop wood now, not to mention that the program would be easily criticized by the audience after it was broadcast, they themselves would also look down on themselves.
So the two female guests only had to be responsible for three meals a day, which was much easier than cutting down trees.
There are a lot of things to eat in the mountains in spring: stream fish, river shrimp, mushrooms, spring bamboo shoots, wild locust flowers...all kinds of things.
Xu Yin once again experienced the fun of treasure hunting, lighting up a plant in the "Illustrated Book of Chinese Herbal Medicine" from time to time.
The fish and shrimp in the stream were so small that they couldn't even be picked up with chopsticks when stewed, so Xu Yin had to use them to make porridge.
Exchange some mushrooms and spring bamboo shoots with the villagers for rice, flour, grain and oil.
In fact, the villagers do not lack these foods, but they are veteran viewers of the program team. They know that this is a task and are happy to exchange with the guests.
An enthusiastic villager also gave Xu Yin a small bottle of local honey.
When roasting sweet potatoes that night, I put some local honey on them. It smelled so good that the director team collectively gulped down the food.
A few days passed like this, and everyone seemed to be used to this rhythm, except that it was a little troublesome to contact the outside world.
The signal in the mountains is always good and sometimes bad, and Xu Yin sometimes has to run to the bottom of the mountain to talk to the dean's mother on the phone.
On this day, she exchanged sophora flowers and shepherd's purse with the villagers for a few eggs. Just as she was about to go up the mountain, she received a call from her agent.
"Umbro, I finally got through to you! If I can't get through again, I have to rush to Wangwushan." Luo Xin said on the other end of the phone, "That's what happened. There is an old variety show on Pineapple Channel that wants to invite you as a guest.
"Invite You to My House", I wonder if you have seen this program before?"
"Invite you to my home"?
Isn't that the rogue variety show in the original text that uses the original person as the control group in a bad way for the sake of traffic?
Xu Yin raised her hand to cover her forehead, looked at the clear blue sky, and slightly opened her lips: "I haven't seen it, so I don't want to accept it."
