Chapter 247: The Director Is Too Blackhearted

Translator: Zayn_

As soon as the director said start, the few of them cheered and began to gather together to discuss the division of labor and cooperation.

At this moment, Xu Xingzhou suddenly said, “That… Aren’t we all late? Director Wei actually didn’t…”

Halfway through his sentence, Jiang Xuyan covered his mouth.

“Can you not say such things?” The person who covered his mouth gritted his teeth and said all kinds of things.

Unfortunately, it was already too late. Wei Zhengrong had already heard Xu

Xingzhou’s “query”.

“Oh, right, 1 forgot you’re all late, you’ve got to accept-”

Before he could say the word ’punishment’, Jiang Xuyan said, “Run quickly.”

The seven of them had already walked more than ten meters.

Wei Zhengrong held the loudspeaker.” If you run again, the punishment will be left until the end, and it will be doubled!”

Hearing this, Jiang Xuyan, who was the first to run away, was the first to return.

He even tried to “share a common enemy” with the director.” Director Wei, I’m the first one to come back. As a reward, can you forget about my punishment?” “Teacher Jiang, do you think it’s possible?” Wei Zhengrong asked coldly. “Impossible!” The few people who came back behind almost said in unison. Zhao Yingnan stepped forward. “Director Wei, please tell me the punishment.” “It’s almost ten o’clock now. We still have to eat lunch.”

The few of them echoed.

Wei Zhengrong didn’t keep them in suspense anymore. He said, “Because of the special nature of this episode, the production team didn’t arrange any special punishment for you.”

“The punishment for being late is to pick the tea leaves on the slope of the small hill opposite.”

“No problem!” Tang Zinian was the first to respond.

When the others looked at him, he laughed dryly and said, “I think it’s better

than drinking the paste from the juicer.”

“Moreover, the tea leaves are not heavy. It shouldn’t be difficult, right?”

“I think so too.” Shu Ling nodded.

“Sigh.” Jiang Xuyan sighed.” This is all Xingzhou’s fault for being too honest. He actually said something like being late!”

“In the first episode, weren’t Tang Zinian and Sister Yingnan the most honest ones?” Song Qingyou smiled. “So… Could it be that you’re a spy for the show?” Being watched by six people, Xu Xingzhou shook his head and waved his hand. “How is that possible?”

“Why don’t we do this? I’ll pick the tea leaves on that slope. It just so happens that I still owe the program team a trip fee…”

This time, Jiang Xuyan covered his mouth halfway.

Before the others could react, Wei Zhengrong’s voice drifted over like a ghost.

“I almost forgot. Some of you still owe the production team money. These are all debts to be repaid…”

As he spoke, he even asked his assistant to take out the small blackboard that recorded how much money they owed.

Everyone was speechless.

“So, Xingzhou, you are indeed a spy!”

Xu Xingzhou facepalmed. “I’m sorry.”

Song Qingyou smiled, her gaze falling on the small blackboard.

The two names on it were Jiang Xuyan and Yu Muhuai, and the amount of debt was 300 yuan.

As for the other four, they were all 200.

Only Song Qingyou herself had zero.

She looked puzzled.

“Why do you owe so much money? Didn’t you say that you hitched a ride here?”

Zhao Yingnan: “It’s not our fault. The director is too black-hearted.”

White Tea Village was too remote, and there was no free ride for a long time.

At their wits’ end, they could only agree to the production team’s offer of 200 yuan to send them to the foot of the mountain.

“I thought you guys were already here, so 1 agreed to the program team.” Shu

Ling said.

“I thought so too.”

“Add one.”

“It seems like we’ve all fallen into the production team’s trap.”

The others were speechless.

There was no need to be so straightforward.

Song Qingyou looked at Yu Muhuai and Jiang Xuyan. “What about you two?” Jiang Xuyan explained, “There wasn’t enough time. I didn’t earn so much money by singing on the streets. I took a bus halfway and was brought here by the production team.”

Yu Muhuai nodded. “Me too.”

Then, their eyes focused on the “0” behind Song Qingyou’s name.

The latter didn’t explain and took out 300 yuan from her pocket.

“I spent 200 yuan on the fare. I still have this much left.”

“Didn’t the production team say that the money was confiscated?” Jiang

Xuyan’s eyes widened.

“Indeed, Qingyou earned it herself.”

“This… She woke up in the morning and came here. How could she earn so much in three hours? Could it be a robbery?”

Their faces were filled with disbelief.

“Guess?” Song Qingyou smiled.

Actually, if the mall manager knew that they were recording a show, he might have given them more money.

This was because the commercial performance would definitely be edited into the show. Even if the mall did not reveal its brand or logo at all, there would always be netizens who could find the location of the mall based on the environment.

It could also be considered a free advertisement.

Wei Zhengrong clapped his hands. “Alright, everyone, it’s time for you to pick the tea leaves!”

“Today is the time for you to get used to the environment of the mountain

village. From tomorrow onward, there will be ‘tourists’ visiting. I hope

everyone will be prepared.”

Regarding the identity of the ‘tourist’, Wei Zhengrong had no intention of revealing it at all.

The seven of them did not want to waste too much time with the program team, so they did not ask further. Instead, they walked around the homestay behind them.

The house did not look big from the outside, but there were more than 20 rooms inside. All kinds of furniture and appliances were present, enough for seven people to live in.

After discussing for a while, they decided on their own rooms.

Song Qingyou, Zhao Yingnan, and Shu Ling, the three girls lived on the second floor.

Yu Muhuai, Jiang Xuyan, and the others stayed on the first floor.

If there were guests, it would be arranged like this.

“The production team will probably send our clothes over.”

“Let’s go pick the tea leaves first.”

Song Qingyou once again became the backbone of the team.

“Qingyou, do you know how to make tea?” Shu Ling asked curiously.

“Yes.”

“That’s good.” Zhao Yingnan breathed a sigh of relief. “If we don’t know how to do it, maybe Director Wei will take the opportunity to make us owe more money.”

In fact, Wei Zhengrong really thought so.

However, the production team didn’t expect Song Qingyou to have learned the skill of frying and making tea!

“Then I’ll leave the work of frying tea to Qingyou.”

Jiang Xuyan said, “We can do anything about picking the tea leaves, but there are other things. For example, someone needs to go to the village at the foot of the mountain to check on the situation and cook…”

Zhao Yingnan nodded. “Then Teacher Jiang and Qingyou will go to the village later. We will be responsible for picking tea leaves and cooking.”

Xu Xingzhou turned around and looked at the kitchen door that was open. “I wonder if there’s any rice…”

“If we don’t have any, we’ll have to go to the production team to exchange for

it,” Yu Muhuai said helplessly.

“Then how many tea leaves do we have to pick?” Tang Zinian sighed.

The seven of them looked at each other and fell into a short silence.

At this moment, a black and white shadow ran over from not far away.

Song Qingyou was pleasantly surprised..
