"Fatty, what are we going to do now?" Zhao Liying asked Li Yinsheng after Li Xiang and the other two left.
"Yixing, you start a fire first, and get some glowing embers for grilling."
Master, go cut down two branches, wrap the wire you found around them, and make a simple barbecue grill for later use.
Sisi, you and Chaoyue go pick lettuce and water spinach. After washing them, you can wrap the meat directly in the lettuce and eat it. As for the water spinach, just skewer it and we'll barbecue it later.
"Yingbao, first make a big pot of honey passion fruit tea. After you're done that, blanch the pig's head, limbs, and trotters, and braise them tonight." Li Yinsheng assigned tasks methodically, her eyes sparkling with anticipation for the upcoming barbecue concert.
"It's a pity there's no beer. Barbecue and beer are the perfect combination, it's heavenly." Liu Yifei sighed, a hint of regret flashing in her eyes.
"However, honey passion fruit tea is also good, it's sweet and sour and can cut through the greasiness. Of course, nothing beats beer with barbecue!" Huang Xiaoming seemed to also want barbecue with beer, just thinking about the taste was absolutely amazing.
"How about we trade rice, noodles, or pork to the production team for beer?" Li Yinsheng felt that something was missing when it came to barbecue without beer. Feeling uneasy, she suggested.
"Will the production team replace us?" This idea immediately received a positive response from everyone, who nodded in agreement, thinking it was a good idea.
“Try it and you’ll see. Call the production crew! Call the production crew! Call the production crew!” Yang Chaoyue stood up and called the drone that was not far from them.
Hong Tao, who was watching the live stream, naturally heard that Group A wanted to exchange food for beer, and he secretly considered the feasibility of this proposal.
As the show's director, he understands the importance of balancing resources among the groups. Group A has captured a wild boar weighing over 100 pounds, so they have no shortage of food. However, occasional "exceptions" can increase the show's entertainment value. In addition, Group A is organizing a music and barbecue party tonight. Watching and eating barbecue without beer is like losing its soul.
"The production team has received your message. Group A, how would you like to exchange things?" Hong Tao gave the reply to the drone through the microphone.
“As far as I know, brewing a can of beer (330 ml) requires about 100 grams of wheat. We won’t take advantage of the production team. How about we exchange 150 grams of pork for a can of beer (330 ml)?” Li Yinsheng asked after a moment of contemplation.
"250 grams of meat can be exchanged for a 500 ml can of beer. How much beer should Group A exchange for? However, I personally do not recommend that you exchange food for beer, and I feel obligated to remind you of this."
"Your Group A currently has no shortage of food, but in desert island survival, finding food often becomes increasingly difficult in the later stages. The more food you store, the greater your chances of winning." Hongtao reminded Group A that finding food is the most important thing in desert island survival, and he was afraid that Group A would squander their good situation, and then they might not even have a chance to regret it.
His words carried a hint of seriousness, clearly indicating reservations about Group A's current practice of exchanging food for beer.
Upon hearing this, Zhao Liying, Liu Yifei, and the others frowned slightly, clearly weighing the pros and cons.
Huang Xiaoming turned to look at his teammates, each of whose faces were filled with thought and hesitation. Finally, he took a deep breath and slowly said, "The director's words make a lot of sense. We really can't just look at the present. Exchanging food for beer seems wasteful, so let's just leave it at that."
"It's possible to exchange them. First, the vegetables in our garden have already grown, and if we take good care of them, they will produce fruit for a long time, so there's no need to worry about having vegetables to eat."
Secondly, we have stored a lot of rice, flour, and rice vermicelli, which will last us a long time.
Third, we're trading the wild boar meat we caught today for beer. We can't possibly eat all this wild boar meat, so we'll trade it for a few bottles of beer to relax for the night. Besides, everyone's worked so hard, and today we're having a barbecue and music concert, so how can we do without beer?
"Let's not exchange too many. The men will each drink two bottles, and we women will each drink one, making fourteen bottles in total. That's settled." Li Yinsheng's words revealed a firmness and optimism. Her words were like a gentle breeze, dispelling the hesitation in her teammates' hearts.
“Okay, Fatty’s words make sense, let’s listen to Fatty.” Huang Xiaoming nodded when he heard Fatty’s words.
Hongtao saw that the members of Group A had made their decision, but he could only respect their choice, after all, it was their challenge and decision.
"Since you've already made your decision, then do as you see fit. The staff will bring you beer, and you can prepare the pork; they'll come over to weigh it later."
"Director, give us some ice-cold beer. If there's not enough time, bring us a bucket of ice, and we'll put the beer in the ice ourselves," Liu Yifei hurriedly instructed.
"Alright! I'll grant your request," Hongtao said somewhat helplessly.
"Let me see, I'll cut up some pork to exchange for beer with the production team." Zhang Yixing was still thinking about cutting up that piece of pork that didn't taste good to exchange for beer with the production team.
"Yixing, don't bother preparing anything. Just cut off the pig's head, remove the two ears and the tongue, keep it for ourselves, and use the whole pig's head to exchange for beer with the production team," Li Yinsheng said, having already come up with the idea.
"What? Is this possible?" Zhang Yixing was an honest man. Exchanging pork for beer had turned into exchanging pig's head for beer. The difference was huge, which made him a little confused. He honestly asked if it was possible.
"Is there any meat on the pig's head? Is there enough to eat?" Yang Chaoyue was also stunned by Li Yinsheng's trick of switching the pig's head with a pig's head. Then she realized what was going on and asked back with a smile.
It's unclear whether it was meant for Zhang Yixing, or for the viewers and Hongtao in the live stream.
“Of course it’s edible, it’s meat, isn’t it?” Zhang Yixing also realized what was going on and nodded hurriedly in agreement. He had obviously understood Li Yinsheng’s intention. After all, their goal at the moment was to exchange the pig’s head, which was not tasty and had little meat, for beer. For them, it was a very profitable business.
"Yes, yes, pig's head meat is also very delicious, especially after it's been braised, it's absolutely delicious!" Huang Xiaoming chimed in from the side.
“That’s settled then. We won’t braise the pig’s head. We’ll have the production team weigh it later. If it’s enough to exchange for fourteen bottles of beer, and there’s any left over, we’ll give it to the production team. If it’s not enough, we’ll make up for it with other food.” Li Yinsheng smiled and spread her hands in front of her.
Hong Tao, who was watching the live broadcast, found Li Yinsheng's "cleverness" somewhat amusing, but he couldn't help but admire Li Yinsheng's wit, reaction, and adaptability.
