Chapter 143: Building a Stove
"How many bricks are there?" An Xingwan spoke first. If there were too few, there would be no need to buy them.
Wen Duolin gestured and said, "There are probably enough bricks for two walls. It looks like a lot to me. He doesn't have any use for those bricks at home, so he plans to sell them at a low price."
An Xingwan nodded and turned to look for the 'NPC' left by the program crew.
"Director, can we talk?" An Xingwan smiled and walked up to the person in the program team who was responsible for exchanging money and food for the guests.
It was the uncle who had signed a contract with An Xingwan before, director Mai Ni.
"It's all on the price list." Mai Ni felt a little scared when he thought about the day of signing the contract.
An Xingwan nodded and said, "I know, but it's true that we can't catch them. I just caught one, and it's not worth much."
Mai Ni didn't respond, so An Xingwan continued, "Advance of forty star coins?"
"No, the program team has regulations." Mai Ni immediately refused.
An Xingwan chuckled again and said, "Rules are fixed. I'll give you something in exchange. What do you think?"
"What is it?" Mai Ni was a little curious.
An Xingwan waved to Yu Lai, who immediately came over with a lychee and said, "It's delicious."
"We won't accept this." Maini insisted on the rules of the program team.
An Xingwan peeled one directly, and the huge lychee was spinning around the wheat mud, and the fruity fragrance was lingering.
"Take a bite?" An Xingwan used his special ability to pass the lychee to his mouth. Maini hesitated for a moment, but still couldn't resist the aroma, so he opened his mouth and bit off a piece of flesh.
The meat is crisp, sweet and juicy, making you want to eat it once you take a bite.
However, just when Mai Ni wanted to take a second bite, An Xingwan suddenly took the lychee away and said, "Forty star coins each."
"this……"
[Haha ...
【What kind of profiteer is this, hahahaha. 】
[I'm dying of laughter. The director is totally incompetent.]
[Is it really that delicious? Judging from the director's reaction, it seems pretty good.]
[My star said it was delicious, so it was definitely delicious.]
[I want to give Xingxing a penalty for breach of contract and ask her to go home and start live streaming.]
It was rare that all the comments were praising An Xingwan, so the director compromised when he saw that the show was so effective.
And this fruit, which I don’t know what it is, is really delicious.
"Okay, fine."
The program prepared separate blank cards for them. They could just scan the chip location with a communicator with jammer permissions and forty star coins would be transferred.
Adding the ten star coins that Li He exchanged for the ferocious beast she caught, it was exactly fifty star coins.
"I'll go buy it." Wen Duolin took the initiative to speak, after all, she knew the way.
An Xingwan nodded, handed her the card, and said to Li He, "Please accompany her."
After all, it was dark, and she was worried about Wen Duolin going alone. Li He nodded. With An Xingwan and Luo Lun here, there should be no problem.
[This internet celebrity seems pretty good.]
[He's pretending! He's definitely pretending.]
[He was taunting Wen Duolin before, how could he be so kind now and not hold a grudge? I don't believe it.]
[That's right, so fake.]
[Bullshit, our Xingxing never holds grudges.]
[How petty are you to hold a grudge over such a small matter?]
"Loren, please bring me some water, don't leave too little." An Xingwan was really rude.
Many viewers frowned when they saw it, and the good impression they had just built up disappeared in an instant.
[Damn, why do you love to boss people around so much?]
[Can she die by carrying herself? Doesn't she have supernatural powers?]
【Why is this person so lazy? 】
Poor little cutie Loren, he's such a nice guy, working so hard without complaint.
[Of the other four, who besides Yu Lai is not pitiful? They are treated like servants and ordered around by her.]
"Is it cold?" The temperature here gets cold as soon as there is no sun.
The icicle was still next to Yu Lai, and she was shivering from the cold, but she didn't say anything.
An Xingwan saw her rubbing her arms, and while retracting the icicle, he said, "What's there to be embarrassed about?"
Yu Lai lowered her head shyly, she was afraid that Xingxing would think she was too nosy.
Loren quickly brought the water over, but An Xingwan didn't use it first. Instead, she went into the house to look for tools in the tool room.
There really were some rare tools like shovels and hoes. An Xingwan took a shovel made of unknown material and went to dig a hole in front of the villa.
There were two square and not-so-small pits next to each other, and An Xingwan started to mix the mud.
When soil and water are mixed together in a certain proportion, the mud becomes very sticky. It just so happened that Wendoline also came back, and the brick seller even helped deliver the bricks.
Rich and Loren helped move the bricks, and when Wenduolin and Yu Lai saw this, they also joined in.
【Ahhh my cute Lailai, don’t get tired. 】
[Let An Xingwan move it. Doesn't she have special abilities?]
【Wendolin is still okay.】
[It turns out that the general does the most work.]
Loren has done a lot of good things.
[The stars are the ones who give the most, right?]
[Haha, if you're not here to do anything, what are you doing here? Are you trying to get attention?]
An Xingwan piled bricks around one of the pits, layering them with mud, ensuring that all the gaps were sealed.
"Please help me pick up some branches, the more the better." I'm afraid I'll have to rely on this earthen stove these days. Making a fire is essential.
[He started ordering people around again.]
How about letting your celebrity build the stove? The celebrities are doing all the dirty work, what else do you want?
[Hehe, she was the one who suggested building the stove. If she doesn't do it, who will?]
An Xingwan was concentrating on building the stove. When Wen Duolin saw that it was getting dark, she went into the house and took out the light ball she had brought with her to give to An Xingwan.
"Thank you." An Xingwan thanked him without even raising her head. Wen Duolin pursed her lips, looking a little uncomfortable.
She is so much older than An Xingwan, but she is not as open as her. It is really shameful.
An Xingwan quickly built the half-height stove, and now all he had to do was wait for the soil to dry.
The side with bricks was empty. An Xingwan broke the dry branches that Li He and the others had picked up, put them into the stove pit, and then lit them.
Because there is a pit next to it, the air flow will make the fire in the stove here burn very vigorously.
An Xingwan went into the house to get the pot, prepare the ingredients, and then...
"Oh my god, there is no rice." An Xingwan didn't expect the production crew to be so cruel that they didn't even prepare rice.
She shredded the potatoes and soaked them, thinking about how to exchange them for money. A pound of rice cost twenty star coins, and she figured even if she offered lychees, Maini wouldn't fall for it.
The most urgent thing is to catch a beast. What beasts are worth twenty star coins?
"Xingxing, I brought some rice." Yu Lai ran in happily, holding a bag. He grinned as if asking for praise and said, "I just took some lychees and walked around the director, eating them as I went. He was so greedy that he exchanged them for a pound of rice from me."
"How many did you exchange?" An Xingwan asked. Would Maini be so generous?
Yu Lai raised his finger and said, "Three."
"Yeah, not bad." An Xingwan took the rice and could fool the naive child.
Maini was lying in the tent set up beside the scene, with his legs crossed, leisurely eating lychees and sighing as he ate.
Yu Lai is really good at fooling people. One pound of rice in exchange for three lychees, it’s totally worth it.
