The backyard of this house was overgrown with weeds. It was obvious that no one had lived here for a long time.
The house was also covered in dust, and the production team did not arrange for anyone to clean it.
Chen Xuan was not in a hurry to clean up. He went to the villager's house next door and knocked on the door.
After a while, a middle-aged woman walked over."Young man, what's wrong?"
"Auntie, do you have rice at home?" Chen Xuan asked. I want to buy some from you."
"Hey, what are you buying? I'll get you some.”
"That won't do." "If I take it directly, I'll have to leave from here today."”
He briefly explained the rules of the program group. Although the auntie was not particularly clear about what the program was, seeing how persistent Chen Xuan was, she agreed to it.
Chen Xuan bought 50 yuan worth of rice and some oil, salt, and seasoning.
This was all new rice, but the auntie sold it cheaply. She calculated it for him at one yuan per catty. This was equivalent to half selling and half giving.
Chen Xuan thanked him and left with 50 catties of rice and seasonings.
When he returned to the kitchen, he suddenly realized a very serious problem.
There was no firewood!
"It's really not easy to have lunch.”
Shaking his head and smiling bitterly, Chen Xuan grabbed a chopper and a hoe from behind the door. He also found a bundle of hemp rope and a carbonate bag and walked out.
"These days are really hard. There's no gas stove.”
"I'm starting to worry about Brother Chen."
"Me too…I have a feeling that Brother Chen might not even be able to hold on today.”
"Brother Chen is so tender. How can he endure the hardships of the countryside?”
The netizens were surprisingly unanimous. They felt that Chen Xuan might not be able to hold on for long.
It wasn't that they didn't want to see him do well, but this could be called a hellish opening. No matter how hard they racked their brains, they couldn't think of a way to turn it around.
At the beginning, there was a broken house, an acre of farmland covered in weeds, and a cow…
No matter how he looked at it, it didn't seem like it could last for a month.
Chen Xuan went out and walked straight to the opposite mountain.
"The starting conditions are a little bad, but for the countryside, this is actually the most ordinary life.”
"My hometown is in the countryside. The environment is very similar to this, but the mountains are not so high.”
Chen Xuan chatted as he walked. The drone recorded it clearly.
"Brother Chen, give up."
"Actually, I have an idea that can let Brother Chen lie down for a month.”
"What idea?"
"You're Brother Understand?"
"This idea is to kill the cow!"
" Pfft! What a f * cking genius."
"Hahaha, awesome, awesome. Killing cows is not bad.”
"I really think this idea is good.”
"I think so too. The program team didn't say that we can't kill cows.”
"Don't you think that killing a cow is too simple…That's a cow, not a chicken!”
When Wang Tao and the others saw these comments, their mouths twitched.
Killing bulls…
To be honest, they hadn't thought about this.
"Is the production team forbidden from killing cows?" Ma Jingyao suddenly asked curiously.”
"No, it's not forbidden." Wang Tao shook his head.
" It doesn't make a difference whether it's banned or not," Zhang Jianmin said." Killing cows won't solve the fundamental problem."”
"Officer Zhang, why do you say that?" Concubine Lin asked curiously.”
"First, how?" Zhang Jianmin asked. Use an ordinary kitchen knife?"
"Unless you're a professional butcher, it's basically impossible to kill a cow with a kitchen knife.”
"Second, do you dare to kill him? Ordinary people wouldn't even dare to kill a chicken, let alone a cow. Moreover, this was an adult buffalo. It didn't look like it on the screen, but when you stood in front of it, you would realize how big the buffalo was. You might not even dare to stab it even if you were given a knife.”
"Third, let's take a step back. If Chen Xuan really kills him, what happens after that?”
"I don't know if you guys have noticed, but I have noticed that there is no refrigerator in Chen Xuan's room. This means that there is no place to freeze beef. With this weather, the beef would go bad in four or five days. After four or five days, he was still hungry.”
"Therefore, there is no essential difference whether you kill the cow or not.”
His analysis instantly made everyone understand.
Ma Jingyao was impressed." Officer Zhang is indeed a police officer. He is observant and has a strong analytical ability."”
"I really didn't notice the problem with the fridge," Li Lang said.”
"After listening to your analysis, why do I feel that Chen Xuan can't even live for a week?" Concubine Lin said.
"That's not necessary." Jianmin Zhang shook his head." The challengers before him could last half a month. As long as he can be patient, there's still hope for him to last a month." However, even if he persisted for a month, he might not be able to pass the grade.”
After all, this was mainly based on his performance in this month.
Previously, Chen Xuan was able to get almost full marks in the three-way evaluation because his performance as a chef was outstanding enough.
His previous performance had brought him a lot of popularity.
However, if his performance was not satisfactory, even if he could pass, it would be barely a pass.
At this moment, Chen Xuan had already arrived at the bamboo forest.
He threw the hatchet, rope, and carboric bag on the ground, grabbed the hoe, and swept across the bamboo forest.""In this season, the bamboo forest has a delicacy. However, this delicacy was not something that anyone could find. To find it, one had to have enough experience. However, even if he had experience, he would still fail at times.”
"Brother Chen…are you going to eat bamboo?”
"Idiot, you've amused me. Brother Chen is talking about bamboo shoots, okay?”
"This Heavenly Bamboo Shoot hasn't appeared yet, right? If you don't show up, dig a few."
"I went home last week and dug for half an hour. I only dug out two bamboo shoots the size of a fist. I was so angry that I threw the hoe away on the spot.”
Chen Xuan grabbed the hoe and lowered his head to observe and search in the bamboo forest. He said,"In March, the bamboo shoots haven't appeared yet, so it's also called winter bamboo shoots. When it comes out, it will be spring bamboo shoots."
"When I was young, every February or March, I would go to the mountains with my friends in the village to dig for bamboo shoots. This thing is the same as fishing. Whether there were bamboo shoots or not, they had to dig to know. The moment they dug out the bamboo shoots, it was the same feeling as when a fish bit the hook. The adrenaline was soaring. It was a great feeling.”
"F * ck, is digging bamboo shoots so satisfying? You make it sound like life is in harmony.”
"It's really that good, especially winter bamboo shoots. Spring bamboo shoots don't have this feeling.”
"Those who have never dug bamboo shoots will never understand.”
"I don't know if digging bamboo shoots is fun or not, but fishing is really fun.”
"Same! Every time I go fishing, even if I can't catch anything, I can sit by the river for an entire day.”
Chen Xuan said,"Digging winter bamboo shoots is actually a technical job. Of course, for people who don't know anything, whether they can dig it out or not depends on luck."”
"But for people like me who have lived in the countryside since I was young, there are actually traces to follow if you want to dig up winter bamboo shoots.”
As he walked forward, he swept the soil under his feet.
"Here!"
Chen Xuan pushed the hoe into the ground, squatted down, and pointed at the soil.
"I'll make a bet with everyone. There are definitely winter bamboo shoots below!”
"Moreover, there's more than one winter bamboo shoot!"
