The Fake Heiress Fades from the Spotlight, but Winning Big by Slacking Off and Collecting Rent

After a car accident, Yan Qiao was selected by the Space-Time Bureau. If she completed ten lifetimes of missions, she could be reborn. She worked overtime, following a 997 work schedule to finish h...

Chapter 15 Let's not eat wild fruits.

Having done everything, Yan Qiao walked to the earthen kiln.

Fortunately, I waterproofed it yesterday, so it didn't get very wet.

She went into the jungle with a basket on her back. Just when everyone thought she was going to complete a task, she came out with a basket of dark brown soil, added charcoal powder, and started mixing it.

The fans in the live stream really couldn't understand what she was trying to do.

Playing in the mud?

It wasn't until Yan Qiao had mixed the mud that she began to lay it on the stones, pressing and smoothing it out, and then layering the mud on top of each other.

Each layer must be allowed to dry slightly before the next layer can be added.

Then, the spout and handle are shaped and the surface is slowly smoothed with a bamboo strip.

The pottery pot was then finished and placed aside.

She estimated that there was enough space inside the kiln to make another ceramic bowl and a ceramic jar.

Although the conditions were not ideal, Yan Qiao had done her best to make these pottery pieces as perfect as possible.

At first glance, it looks almost identical to those on the market.

Only Yan Qiao knew that the quality was still far from satisfactory.

[666! She's actually making pottery jars!]

[Seriously? So what she did yesterday was build a clay kiln for firing pottery jars?]

[It can't be that simple. This feels like a shoddy job; it definitely won't do.]

Of course it's poorly made, but given the conditions, it's already quite good that it can be used for a while.

Rather than focusing on the exquisiteness of the items, people felt that Yan Qiao was already quite excellent at simply making them.

Good heavens, is there anything this woman can't do!

Yan Qiao started a fire, then put the pottery she had shaped and dried into it, sealing the top opening with mud as well.

This was her first time doing this; she had all the theory but no practical experience, and she didn't know if it would work, but she just wanted to give it a try.

If it can be done, that would be best; if not, she'll find a way to improve it.

Waiting for the pottery to be fired was a long and tedious process, but Yan Qiao was patient and would add firewood to it from time to time.

Through the gaps, you can see that the pottery inside has turned reddish due to firing.

As the sun gradually rose higher and hung high in the sky, she knew that it was almost time.

The netizens who had been waiting in the live stream for so long were even more excited than her, eager to know whether Yan Qiao would succeed.

Even those who were trying to dampen the enthusiasm harbored an inexplicable curiosity.

Yan Qiao extinguished the fire, removed the clay block sealing the opening, and let the pottery inside cool slowly before taking it out.

The moment Yan Qiao took out the simply made pottery, the live stream exploded.

[Success! She actually did it!]

[Aaaaaah, a groundhog scream! Is there anything this woman can't do?! What else?!]

My sister is awesome!

Yan Qiao bent her knuckles and tapped the surface, producing a crisp sound.

Not bad, at least she was quite satisfied.

The hashtag "#YanQiaoMakingPottery#" gradually gained popularity until it topped the trending search list.

Yan Qiao has been trending on social media several times before, all because of negative rumors and criticisms.

When this term appeared on the trending search list, people found it strange.

Upon seeing that it was "House on a Desert Island," I couldn't resist clicking to take a look.

Once inside, they couldn't get out, and the live stream's popularity gradually increased.

Yan Qiao was completely unaware of what was happening online.

She took her pottery jars and pottery pots to the seaside to clean them, removing the mud and dust, also wanting to test their practicality.

Surprisingly durable, and feels almost the same as the one I bought, but it doesn't stand up to close inspection; there are still many flaws.

After washing it with seawater, Yan Qiao let the fresh water she had collected stand for a while, and then filtered it.

She made the filter herself; it's simple and effective.

After filtering, it is poured into a ceramic pot and boiled.

She built the stove out of stones and placed a ceramic pot on it, which surprisingly gave it a rural feel.

After the water boiled, Yan Qiao became the first person on the show to drink hot water.

It certainly doesn't taste as good as purified water, but she was already very satisfied.

Besides these, Yan Qiao also pinched a few pieces of tile and put them aside to dry.

Long, thick tiles don't dry easily, so she took advantage of the time and headed into the jungle with her mission card.

Netizens then realized that Yan Qiao had not actually given up on the task she posted last night.

Even though Yan Qiao made the pottery, they still didn't think she could complete the task.

The task card was written entirely in English, using technical terms that Yan Qiao definitely wouldn't understand.

Yan quietly entered the jungle, not in a hurry to do the mission.

She hadn't eaten lunch and was now quite hungry.

There was nothing on this deserted island, but there were plenty of wild fruits.

While picking wild fruits to fill her stomach, Yan Qiao explained some scientific knowledge to netizens in front of the camera.

Her mind is like a treasure chest, full of inexhaustible knowledge; she knows everything.

"These are the black nightshade fruits that Yan Yaoyao picked last time. This color indicates that they are ripe and can be eaten, but this one is unripe, and eating too many may cause diarrhea."

Ripe black nightshade berries taste pretty good.

[Just wondering, am I the only one who thinks Yan Qiao's knowledge level doesn't seem like a high school graduate?]

[But she only graduated from high school with a total score of 270, and didn't go to university.]

Are some fans going to try to whitewash her again?

Yan Qiao's stain is real and there's no way to wash it away.

After eating her fill of fruit, Yan Qiao casually stuffed some more into her pocket and began working on her task.

We ran into two groups along the way.

After a morning of work, they had gained a lot.

Yan Yaoyao called out to Yan Qiao, "Yan Qiao, do you really not need my help? I won't laugh at you if you don't understand."

Hearing her affected voice, Shiloh frowned impatiently.

Yan Qiao smiled and said, "No need, thank you."

Yan Yaoyao grabbed her basket and glanced inside.

"Let me see what you picked."

It was completely empty inside; there was nothing there.

Yan Yaoyao exaggeratedly covered her mouth, "You haven't started picking yet? Or do you not understand the task card at all? I told you not to be stubborn..."

"Have you said enough? If you have, then hurry up and leave." It was Xi Luo who spoke.

Yan Yaoyao's smile froze, and she glanced at him.

"Fine, since you don't appreciate it, then forget it. Xi Luo, let's go."

As Xi Luo passed by Yan Qiao, Yan Qiao touched her pocket and took out wild fruit wrapped in banana leaves.

"These are all edible, I just picked them. Do you want some?"

She reluctantly took Xiluo's words as an attempt to help her out of a difficult situation.

She always liked to reciprocate kindness.

If Yan Yaoyao continues to ramble on, Yan Qiao can't guarantee she won't snap at her.

Shiloh accepted the gift and thanked him in a barely polite tone.

Yan Yaoyao gritted her teeth inwardly, "Xi Luo, let's not eat the wild berries. Who knows if there will be any problems, especially after last time..."

Yan Qiao lifted her eyelids. "After all, I reminded you last time, and you still ate unripe black nightshade fruit. But this time, I can guarantee that these fruits will be fine, because I picked them myself."
