"We absolutely cannot lose money, or the whole village will beat us to death."

"If you're aware of this, we won't lose money."

Before leaving, Yan Jie gave her a final instruction:

“I need to go to the village committee. Finish your work on the pond and wheat field these next few days before you come back to help. We’re in a complete mess there.”

Jiang Hexi thought he was exaggerating and didn't take his words to heart.

Three days later, after she had applied compound fertilizer to the thousand acres of wheat fields and released 1,500 fish fry into the pond, she led Chu Yang and Li Youtian back to the wooden building and found that even "chaos" was not enough to describe the uproar in front of her.

The front yard was packed with people, and the villagers in line even stood on the path outside the gate to wait.

Jiang Hexi struggled to squeeze into the crowd, wanting to ask what was going on, but before she could even reach the long table in front of her, Li Youtian grabbed her arm and pulled her out.

Li Youtian, relying on his burly physique, charged through the crowd and managed to bring her and Chu Yang to the main creative team at the edge of the room.

Jiang Hexi asked Director Chen, "What's going on?"

"Job interview scene."

Director Chen succinctly explained, "As soon as the gate opened, the villagers swarmed in, and we couldn't stop them. The courtyard was immediately packed."

Jiang Hexi couldn't help but ask anxiously, "Isn't Yan Jie going to maintain order?"

Director Chen pointed to a dark figure surrounded by villagers from all sides and said, "Let's see if he can get out of there first."

Chu Yang looked around and saw that the five long tables in a row were completely surrounded by villagers. "Sister, they've all been captured."

Jiang Hexi stretched out her arm and stood in front of Director Chen, giving him a fierce look.

Director Chen looked down at her hand and asked, "What's wrong?"

Jiang Hexi said forcefully, "Lend me your speakers and microphone."
