Afterwards, Xie Qi's eyes involuntarily turned to the sparse and messy wheat beside Xiao Ziran. A feeling of speechlessness welled up in his heart, and he slowly said, "Get up, there's no need to cut it."
"No...no more cutting?"
However, Xie Qi ignored Xiao Ziran and just looked at the busy camera crew in the distance with a calm expression. He raised his voice and shouted, "We quit. You have to pay us back the money we earned."
Although he said he would not do the rest, the original owner had harvested so much wheat before, so the money must be paid. However, Xie Qi was not so kind and did not want a penny.
However, the camera crew heard this and ran over. One of them checked the wheat they had harvested and said, "Teacher Xie, we could have given you 100 yuan after harvesting, but since you're not harvesting anymore and there's no one else harvesting later, the price will be lower."
After all, the program team has booked this field. If the guest gives up halfway, the program team will need to ask other people to harvest the wheat.
After hearing what the other party said, Xie Qi simply asked, "How much lower?"
The other party hesitated for a moment, then said guiltily, "One dollar for a bundle of wheat. You have twenty-four bundles here, so the total bill is twenty-four dollars."
However, as soon as the other party finished speaking, Xiao Ziran broke down first. It would cost a hundred yuan to take a taxi from here to the destination. He didn't want to take a caravan back. It was too embarrassing.
So Xiao Ziran immediately retorted: "Have you, the production team, gone crazy because of poverty? Xie Qi has already harvested more than half of the field, with only two rows left. Why are you giving so little? You should give at least 70 yuan."
The production crew wiped the sweat from their foreheads and explained, "Master Xiao, this is the director's rule. How about... you guys just cut off the rest? There aren't many left anyway, and you can get a hundred yuan for it."
When Xiao Ziran saw the embarrassment on the other person's face, he suddenly felt a little bit of pity in his heart. He knew very well that the other person was just an employee.
So, he slowly put away the slightly sharp expression on his face, and instead looked at Xie Qi quietly, with a hint of hesitation and entanglement in his eyes.
He bit his lip, as if he was making a difficult decision. After a moment, he slowly said, "How about...we finish harvesting the wheat?"
After all, we've come this far, and it would be a shame to give up halfway. If we don't finish the job, the loss will be too great. Just a little difference, something that was originally worth 100 will drop to 20 in an instant. This gap is really hard to accept.
However, after he finished speaking, Xie Qi just glanced at him, raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and said with a hint of disdain: "You come to cut it?"
Hearing this, Xiao Ziran's face instantly turned a little ugly. Involuntarily, his mind emerged the scene of himself waving a sickle to cut wheat under the scorching sun, sweating profusely. It was simply a nightmare.
He shook his head quickly and said anxiously: "No, no, no, I can't do this."
"That's it." After Xie Qi said this, he turned around and looked at the people from the program crew without looking back.
There was a sly glint in his eyes. He stretched out his hand and said to the program crew, "Take out the money!"
The people in the program crew were speechless for a moment because of Xie Qi's behavior. They stood there blankly with embarrassed expressions on their faces.
Although they knew in their hearts that what Xie Qi was talking about was the money earned from labor, Xie Qi at this moment really looked like a street robber.
Then Xie Qi took the twenty or so yuan in his hand, glanced at Xiao Ziran, and said, "Come on, I'll take you to make some money."
However, Xiao Ziran was stunned when he heard what the other party said. He didn't expect Xie Qi to call himself brother. He watched Xie Qi leave and chased after him. He couldn't help but say, "Fuck, you're the first one to take advantage of me. Are you planning to quit after recording this show?"
Xie Qi continued to walk forward, his pace neither hurried nor slow, but his tone was half-joking as he slowly said, "I'm planning to finish recording this show and get ready to upgrade my status."
