Chapter 156: Even This is Possible?!
Translator: Zayn_
At seven o’clock in the evening, all the guests gathered again.
Jiang Xuyan frowned.
“Director Wei, are you going to provide dinner according to the rankings again?”
“Then wouldn’t I have to eat potatoes again?”
“It might not be potatoes. I think it might be boiled cabbage.” Song Qingyou chuckled.
“Maybe he’ll let Teacher Jiang eat his own cooking,” Yu Muhuai said.
“Then I’ll just eat the potatoes.” Jiang Xuyan instantly admitted defeat.
“Is Teacher Jiang’s cooking really that bad?” asked Tang Zinian curiously.
Before he finished his words, Wei Zhengrong’s voice sounded, “Don’t worry! Everyone will have a chance to taste Teacher Jiang’s dishes tonight.”
“What?!” Jiang Xuyan was shocked and pointed at himself, “Then 1 have to eat it myself too?”
Director Wei did not answer and only explained, “Since Teacher Jiang’s ranking is the lowest, he’s in charge of cooking a dish.”
“Other than Teacher Jiang, only the person ranked first doesn’t need to eat this dish. This is one of the punishments.”
“It’s actually one of them.” Zhao Yingnan couldn’t help but complain.
“In addition, the program team will provide some blind boxes of ingredients. There are onions, potatoes, onions, ginger, garlic, and various drinks…Wait a minute, the food extracted from the blind box will be put into the juicer at once and blended into a paste as the second dish for your dinner.”
“Will it be cooked after it’s blended?” Xu Xingzhou immediately asked.
Wei Zhengrong smiled kindly, “Don’t think too much…”
“The program team-”
“Of course won’t cook it for you!!”
Everyone’s faces turned pale.
Why did they have to eat raw onion drinks?
What was the difference between this and directly poisoning them?
Were they going to the hospital tonight?
Wei Zhengrong looked at their pale faces and tried to hold back his laughter.
“Similarly, the first place doesn’t need to choose any ingredients, nor do they need to eat this ‘dish’. The rest of the people will have to choose more ingredients according to their rankings.”
“Then, the third dish.”
“There’s more?” Jiang Xuyan had already put on the mask of pain[l].
“Since everyone has been working hard these few days, the third dish will not be served as a punishment. At that time, dinner will be arranged at different prices according to the amount of money you earned in the past three days.”
“This is still alright.”
The group heaved a sigh of relief.
However, when all the blind food boxes were placed on the table, their expressions did not look so good.
Because, in those blind boxes, not only were there things like coriander and fenugreek roots that half the people would hate to eat, but there were also some boxes with live things in them!
Looking at the white, fat, and squirming worms, Shu Ling had goosebumps all over her body and subconsciously retreated.
Tang Zinian’s face was also pale. He covered his eyes like Jiang Xuyan.
Zhao Yingnan swallowed her saliva and said with difficulty, “Director… These bugs… Are you really not going to consider frying it first?”
At the very least, it would be cooked if it was fried!
It was much better than eating raw!
Wei Zhengrong laughed. “Don’t worry, everyone. The production team has consulted the relevant experts. These bugs are all artificially bred. They are very clean and can be eaten raw!”
“Is it a question of whether we can eat it raw or not?” Jiang Xuyan asked in a trembling voice.
Song Qingyou wasn’t worried at all. Seeing them retreat, she smiled and said, “You have to believe in your luck. Believe that you won’t choose ingredients that you don’t want to eat!”
“Teacher Jiang, don’t you just have to pick seven kinds of ingredients? Don’t be afraid!”
Jiang Xuyan wanted to cry, but no tears came out. “There are only a dozen ingredients here…”
With such a high probability, how lucky would he be to not get it?
He could even “draw” the lowest-paid position of a cleaner. How could he be lucky!
“Yes, Qingyou is right. Don’t be afraid.”
Wei Zhengrong said, “So, who will go first?”
Everyone took a step back in tacit understanding.
“Director Wei, you haven’t announced the rankings yet.”
“All, right! I was so happy today that 1 actually forgot about this!”
Wei Zhengrong’s words made everyone speechless.
He was so happy to see them “unlucky”. Those who didn’t know better would think that Director Wei was a pervert!
“Cough cough, Little Li, bring up the rankings.”
Wei Zhengrong couldn’t wait to see their expressions when they got the special ingredients, so he didn’t keep them in suspense and started to announce the rankings.
The last one was Jiang Xuyan.
The second last was Zhao Yingnan. The cashier’s salary was fixed, not to mention that she had made two mistakes and was deducted dozens of yuan.
The fifth was Shu Ling.
The fourth was Tang Zinian.
The third was Xu Xingzhou.
It was quite surprising that Xu Xingzhou’s pancake stall had actually caught up with the others.
Moreover, the process of him setting up his stall was not without twists and turns. It was also one of the main highlights of the first episode.
“Who will be first?” Everyone started discussing.
“It should be Muhuai!”
Zhao Yingnan said, “When 1 came here today, I heard from the program team staff that Muhuai’s delivery of food almost had zero negative reviews! It’s especially powerful!”
Xu Xingzhou also thought that it was Yu Muhuai. “The salary of a kindergarten teacher is fixed. I think it’s him too.”
Shu Ling interrupted, “There’s no point in discussing this. Why don’t we make a bet? Whoever loses will help drink half of the dark cuisine.”
The reason why it was ‘drink’, of course, was because the dark cuisine was blended out by a juicer.
Jiang Xuyan thought for a while. “Then Xiao Yu and Qingyou can’t bet. You two must have something on your mind.”
Song Qingyou and Yu Muhuai looked at each other and nodded.
In the end, Zhao Yingnan, Xu Xingzhou, Tang Zinian, and Jiang Xuyan bet on Yu Muhuai.
The only one who bet on Song Qingyou being first was Shu Ling.
“Even if we lose, the four of us will share the food. Shu Ling, do you really want to continue betting?” Jiang Xuyan asked.
Shu Ling hesitated.
But a few seconds later, she said firmly, “I’ll bet on Qingyou being first!”
“Sister Shu Ling, the four of us might have to help you quit gambling today.” Tang Zinian grinned.
Wei Zhengrong waited for them to decide before revealing the name of the second place.
On it was written:
Yu Muhuai: 3000 yuan.
Everyone was surprised that Yu Muhuai was actually second, but when they saw the amount, they instantly lost their composure.
“Earning 3,000 in three days, and you’re only second? How is that possible?”
“Did the staff make a mistake? How can a kindergarten teacher earn more than 1,000 yuan a day?”
Everyone was in disbelief, including Yu Muhuai, who thought he had won.
Even Song Qingyou was surprised.
“My salary isn’t that much. Did the director get the order wrong?”
Wei Zhengrong didn’t answer. He slowly revealed the first place’s details.
Song Qingyou: 300600 yuan.
Everyone: Z(°A°|||)! ! !
“T-Three, three hundred thousand?!” Jiang Xuyan was dumbfounded.
“Yes.” Wei Zhengrong nodded. “Our Teacher Song caught a group of human traffickers during her work. This 300,000 yuan is a reward from the government!”
Since acting bravely was something that everyone could do and there were no occupation restrictions, the bonuses were also included in the money Song Qingyou had earned.
The group of people looked at Song Qingyou together like machines, with surprised expressions that seemed to say: ‘Even this is possible?!’
The next punishment session was extremely painful for everyone except Song Qingyou, and it also provided plenty of jokes to wrap up the first episode of the show.
