Chapter 64: Outrageous Game
When the director returns to the beach, the barbecue ingredients in the freezer will be revealed to the guests.
"The ingredients you want are all in the box. There's meat, vegetables, seafood, and seasonal fruit. It's easy to get these ingredients. You don't need to exchange them for labor coins this time. I'm sure you don't have that many labor coins on you."
When the director opened the freezer, some guests had already thought about taking out their labor coins, but the director actually said that coins would not be needed this time.
After hearing the director's last words, everyone looked at the few remaining labor coins, and the light in their eyes dimmed a little.
"Director, you are wrong to say that. The reason why there are not so many labor coins is because you gave too little," said Meng Chuyuan.
Qi Zhen agreed, "Yeah, the vegetable prices are so high, we don't have much money left after exchanging them once."
The prices of dishes in this period are generally similar to those in the first period, but because most of the ingredients are seafood, the quantity has been greatly reduced. For example, crabs are exchanged individually.
[That’s right, all the labor coins were given by the director, and now he’s complaining that the guests don’t have enough labor coins.]
[Sister Meng said: Director, you pay us so little in labor currency, and you still have the nerve to look down on us?]
[This has caused public outrage. Director, take care of yourself, hahahaha]
If there were no cameras, the director would have been beaten. Who could have endured that?
[The director advises you to understand your position and be careful with your words]
After the director was ruthlessly exposed by Meng Chuyuan, he coughed twice and took the opportunity to change the subject: "Let's talk about business first."
"This time you need to win by playing games, and then choose the ingredients you want."
Liao Jiake asked curiously, "What game?"
The director suddenly lifted an apple from the table and said, "Break the apple with your bare hands."
[Director, this game is a bit difficult for me, hahaha]
[Sister Meng hasn't said anything yet. I really want to see how she'll react. Only she can stand up to the director.]
[Help! I want to know if this game was thought out by a human mind? Or was it just something the director came up with on a whim?]
[Breaking an apple with bare hands, hahaha, what a straight man's game, only the director could come up with this, right?]
Are you sure this isn't embarrassing the guests? It feels like it would be easier to just spend labor coins.
After the director finished talking about this game project, the whole audience fell silent.
After a while, I heard Jiu say in disgust: "You call this a game?"
When Tingjiu Yi heard about playing games, he was quite excited. He thought that the program team would cooperate with their game platform to specially design a promotional segment, and maybe he could play to his strengths.
Who would have thought that he could break an apple with his bare hands?
"Peeling an apple...are you serious about this?" Qi Yan looked at the apple and began to worry about her manicure.
The director nodded affirmatively: "Seriously, let's get started. You can choose one ingredient each time you break it."
Tingjiu took an apple in his hand and studied it carefully: "Why do I feel that the production team is deliberately giving us difficult problems? Sister Chuyuan, don't you think so?"
"Then who made us have no labor currency?" Meng Chuyuan had calmed down and didn't intend to argue with anyone.
[No way! What's wrong with Sister Meng? Are you sure you won't refute such an outrageous game?]
I thought Sister Meng was going to have a showdown with the director, but in the end, Sister Meng gave in. What happened?
[Family, I suddenly feel a little uncomfortable, as if I lost a bet. This time, I really didn't expect Sister Meng to react like this.]
Is it possible that Sister Meng can break an apple with her bare hands, which is why she gave the director such a good deal?
Meng Chuyuan took an apple and tried to break it open.
In fact, she had never broken an apple with her bare hands, so when she tried, she failed to break it open like everyone else.
The audience watching the live broadcast were all worried for her. They couldn't understand why she didn't reject the director's request if she didn't know how to break an apple?
Qi Yan happened to be standing next to Meng Chuyuan. Seeing that she couldn't break the apple either, Qi Yan couldn't help but laugh out loud: "I thought you were quite capable."
Meng Chuyuan listened to her strange voice and responded coldly: "That's just what you think, what does it have to do with me?"
Although Meng Chuyuan really couldn't open the apple, she didn't feel embarrassed at all.
She never said how great she was.
Everyone had an apple in their hands, and no one could break the apple apart after a long time. The director was sitting next to them, with his legs crossed in a willful manner. He felt very happy when he saw this scene.
The program crew has prepared all kinds of barbecue ingredients this time, because they will have to eat them soon.
In order to keep as much food as possible for himself, the director could only come up with such a difficult game.
However, in order to deal with Meng Chuyuan, the director also prepared a second plan: to quickly distinguish between pure water and salt water, but it was not used in the end.
After a long time, someone finally broke the first apple, and that person was Lu Jinsen.
Without anyone noticing, Lu Jinsen suddenly exerted force at a certain moment, and the apple was split into two in his hand.
[The young master is quite skilled, can he really open an apple with his bare hands? ]
What did I miss? The scene just now was too fast, I didn’t see it.
[No one could have guessed that the person who finally broke the apple apart would be Lu Jinsen! ]
[I always thought the young master was quite strong, so it's not surprising that he could pry it apart.]
Ting Jiu stared at Lu Jinsen in amazement. After seeing him break the apple in his hand, he asked in surprise, "Oh my god, how did you do that?"
Lu Jinsen lowered his eyes and said softly, "Break it by force."
The guests present were all stunned, as if the apples in their hands were not of the same variety as Lu Jinsen's.
Seeing this, Meng Chuyuan couldn't help but praise him: "Really good."
It seems that everyone has dinner.
When the director heard someone say that Lu Jinsen had broken the apple, he immediately stood up from his chair.
Before the director came to check, Lu Jinsen turned around and showed him the apple.
Director: “Did they really break it apart?”
Lu Jinsen raised his eyebrows slightly and said calmly, "Can I choose now?"
"Choose."
They just broke open the first apple, and the director didn't think it was too threatening at the moment, so he acted very generous.
Lu Jinsen put the apple back on the table. Before choosing the ingredients, he glanced at Meng Chuyuan.
He took the initiative to ask: "What to choose?"
[Am I reading this correctly? Is Lu Jinsen asking for Sister Meng's opinion?]
[Not bad, not bad, this kid has improved and is now considerate of others.]
[Am I the only one who thinks the young master is like an indecisive child? Hahaha. But he asked Sister Meng, so that's respectful, right?]
[I didn't realize Lu Jinsen was quite a gentleman and even knew how to put ladies first.]
