That's how I became famous

Chapter 699 Villager Mr. Li

The skin of the watermelon is smooth and round, and it has been a while since it was shipped back. Naturally, it doesn't weigh much after being covered with that little rain.

The first thing Li Xiao thought of was to run a water hose from the faucet, but it was too wasteful, so he had to give up.

"When picking watermelons, you can paste some mud on them."

Li Xiao was thinking while carrying the watermelon on the scale.

When you are so poor, you can think of anything.

Everyone helped together. After more than ten minutes of hard work, the watermelon was finally weighed. It was 560 five catties in total, plus [-] catties of blueberries.

There was a total of 150 and 150 yuan, and Wang Zhengyu was not stingy to the end. He had no change and gave [-] and [-] yuan.

Whether the work efficiency is fast or slow, in fact, Li Xiao and the others have no idea, but it took about three hours from picking melons to transporting them back.

The seven of them worked so hard in the watermelon field and only made a hundred or so yuan, which is really not easy to make.

Blueberries are not easy to earn. The three girls only picked forty catties after picking them for so long, which is still a lot.

But it’s not too much to worry about. Take a break and work harder today, and you’ll earn the electricity bill for a week or two.

Make money!
Go back and turn on the air conditioner!

Li Xiao would not deliberately suffer himself in order to create a miserable image.

Working so hard is to eat and sleep well!

He immediately asked everyone to go back to the living room, picked up two watermelons and went to the kitchen, cut them up and put them in the refrigerator, then took out the watermelon that Yang Xinyue gave as a gift today, it was already chilled.

Seeing this scene, Peng Peng said that he was really tall. Before the watermelons were on the scale, he said he would take out two, but was stopped by Li Xiaoyi's righteous words.

It turned out that we had to wait until the weighing was over.

Peng Peng followed suit, went to the kitchen to get a plate, and grabbed two handfuls of blueberries.

Xu Tingzhou yawned a lot, feeling a little sleepy, but he didn't have the nerve to take a nap.

Seeing this scene, Huang Lei looked at the others, and found that everyone was in the same state, a little tired.

After eating lunch and weighing the watermelon, it was past two o'clock, and all I did was physical work, so it's normal to be tired.

On the contrary, the three girls were very energetic, sitting together automatically, chattering endlessly, most of them were Yang Xinyue, and Fengmei and Meng Qi occasionally said something with a smile.

The two female guests are about 21 and [-] years old, just a few years older than Fengmei, plus Fengmei's child star debut, they are still their seniors, and they know a lot more about the circle than they do, so they can chat Together.

Seeing this, Huang Lei said: "Go to sleep and take a rest. It's not too late to work again at 04:30 in the afternoon. It's getting dark here, but dinner may be postponed."

The guests were embarrassed to mention it, but after Mr. Huang spoke, they would not insist on saying no, and immediately went back to the room to rest.

"Aren't you sleeping?" Huang Lei looked at the girl with a smile.

"We're not sleepy."

Immediately, Yang Xinyue said with some embarrassment: "We don't have any work."

On one side, Meng Qi said: "Most of the blueberries picked today are picked by Fengmei."

It was quite upright, Huang Lei laughed, but he had a better impression of them.

Fengmei hurriedly said: "No, no, the two sisters also picked a lot."

At this time, there was a slight snoring sound in the living room.

It turned out that Li Xiao fell asleep in the living room at some point.

Because Li Xiao was lying behind the coffee table, everyone didn't notice, they only thought that he followed him back to the room to rest.

"Brother is too tired." Fengmei said with a little distress, then ran back to the room lightly, took out the blanket from the cabinet, and covered him lightly.

I don't know why, just now Li Xiao was able to fall asleep with so many voices, but even though Fengmei's movements were very light, he suddenly woke up.

As soon as he opened his eyes, he found four pairs of eyes staring at him condescendingly. For a moment, he thought he was still in a dream. During the short sleep, he dreamed that he was going to steal watermelon and was caught
"What's wrong?" Li Xiao squeezed the blanket subconsciously, the eyes of Yang Xinyue and Meng Qi made him a little scared.

"It's okay, you can continue to sleep." Like looking at a little sheep, Huang Lei was kind to Li Xiao once in a while.

Fengmei blamed herself: "I'm sorry, Brother Xiaoxiao, I woke you up."

"it's okay no problem."

He fell asleep for some reason, but when he woke up, he was unexpectedly sober. Li Xiao waved his hand.

After washing his face, Li Xiao walked out of the yard, while Huang Lei took the three girls out to buy vegetables.

At this time, the staff were carrying watermelons. Li Xiao and the others picked watermelons and sold them to the program group. The program group was lucky enough to sell them to local contractors, and the money from the sale was used to invest in the charity fund of Mushroom House.

The Mushroom House Charity Fund was established during the last season of the concert. In the future, all the income from the agricultural products of the Mushroom House will be invested in the foundation, that is, the income of watermelon, dragon fruit, blueberry, etc. after deducting the cost of this season.

The guests and guests will definitely not be able to deal with these hundreds of acres of land, and workers will be invited to harvest at that time.

During the recording period, if the fruit is overripe, a special person will be invited to harvest it. Of course, they will be told to leave some for the Mushroom House guests to chatter about.

Li Xiao found Wang Zhengyu in the monitoring room, he was sleeping, he didn't have so many scruples, he yelled: "Director Wang!"

Scared, Wang Zhengyu jumped up from the reclining chair, saw that it was Li Xiao, and said angrily, "What are you doing?"

"Don't do it!"

Li Xiao then said: "The colleagues outside are moving watermelons, but you are sleeping here? And the air conditioner is turned on, is your conscience okay?"

Wang Zhengyu gave Li Xiao a blank look, ignored him, and lay down again, intending to continue sleeping.

"Come on, come on, take a quick shot, and still work with this kind of director? Even if we are working part-time, we have to work with the right boss, right?"

Li Xiao pulled his follower, and Lao Luo was not afraid, he walked in directly, and the camera aimed at Wang Zhengyu, showing Wang Zhengyu's whole body first, and then a close-up, and replied: "Xiaoxiao is right."

"..."

Lao Luo, you fickle man... Wang Zhengyu sat up again, and said helplessly, "Xiaoxiao, brother Xiaoxiao, little brother, what do you want to say quickly, okay? I've been sleeping since I came to the mushroom house." It took less than two hours, I beg you!"

"Did you sleep for less than two hours? What did you do?"

Li Xiao looked at him contemptuously, thinking that he was going to be chic.

However, Lao Luo kindly explained, the fruit merchant changed his mind temporarily, and Director Wang contacted urgently and negotiated a deal.

Also, the recording of the show has just started, and there is a lot of preparation work, and he is worried everywhere, either not sleeping, or not falling asleep.

When people reach middle age, the pressure will be greater.

The show is so popular in the first two seasons, and Wang Zhengyu is a self-motivated director, so he will naturally pay more attention to it.

"So speaking of it, it's not that you don't have time to sleep, or you just don't want to sleep, and it's only time now." Li Xiao said to himself.

In the eyes of Wang Zhengyu wanting to eat people, Li Xiao stopped teasing him, and quickly said: "We pick watermelons and transport them back to the mushroom house, and you have to transport them to the fruit merchants. This time and again, not only we are tired, but the staff It’s also tiring, time-consuming and labor-intensive. It’s better to weigh it directly on the field, then load it into a truck and transport it away. Don’t worry, we will load the truck ourselves and load it according to your needs.”

Li Xiao thought of this when he came back from transporting watermelons.

He even suspected that Wang Zhengyu had thought of this link a long time ago. If they didn't talk about it, they could talk if they found it out, and let it go if they couldn't find it out.

It's like asking them a question.

Suspicions were not groundless. For example, he sold watermelon juice to the staff yesterday. Afterwards, he found that Wang Zhengyu was not angry at all, and he filled in all the loopholes that could be exploited in the first place.

It is very likely that they have been prepared for a long time, which is equivalent to leaving some links in the game to trigger missions and get rewards...

At the moment, Wang Zhengyu's reaction made Li Xiao confirm what he thought.

Wang Zhengyu just glanced at Li Xiao in surprise, as if he had already prepared a reason, and blurted out: "We have a lot of people."

We have a lot of people, so it's not a lot of work.

Li Xiao heard his subtext, but also thought it was a bit funny, this is really a battle of wits and courage!
Director Wang obviously just woke up, his mind is still a little confused, and he forgot to act.

"Director Wang, what you said is meaningless."

Li Xiao beat the injustice and said: "The brothers and sisters of the show follow you to do variety shows and shows, not to do this kind of work. You are adding extra workload to them."

"That's part of doing the show, and that's what Mushroom House is."

Wang Zhengyu seemed to wake up a little bit, and immediately added: "It is possible, but you have to pay the subsidy."

Nima, it's really all planned!

Li Xiao is convinced that Wang Zhengyu has really stood up this season.

Why sure?
Because of getting along with him for two seasons, he knew that Wang Zhengyu was a person without quick wit.

If he had quick wit, he wouldn't have taken so much advantage in the first two seasons.

You don't need to think too much now, as if you knew what he wanted to say from the beginning, you have already prepared the answer, and maybe even rehearsed it...

However, although Director Wang is not quick-witted, he is not a person without wisdom.

It's just that he is not used to giving feedback on something immediately. If he is allowed to think quietly for half an hour or an hour, he can give feedback without missing anything.

If you can't understand, you can substitute it for the person who always regrets that he didn't perform well at the time after the quarrel.

After scolding the old man in his heart, Li Xiao calmly asked, "What kind of money do you want to pay?"

Wang Zhengyu quickly gave an answer again: "Of course it's labor wages, and our staff are paid to move watermelons."

The voice became confident: "Now you say that you don't want to ship it back, but just load it into the car, just to make them lose their jobs and give them some unemployment compensation. Is it normal?"

Can you still speak with this logic?

What is it because I made everyone lose their jobs?

Li Xiaoren was stunned by Wang Zhengyu's sophistry, and he was stunned for a while before angrily said: "How can you be so shameless?"

Let you play sophistry with me before, and your mentality collapsed, right? Wang Zhengyu felt that Li Xiao at this time was just like himself before. He was in a very comfortable mood and became complacent. He said, "How can this be called shameless? This is called causality!"

Li Xiao only thought that he was too much, so he sneered: "Director Wang, I think you have made a mistake about the relationship between us, you, and the employees."

"We directly loaded the watermelon into the car, which not only saved you time, but also saved you a lot of labor costs. According to your logic, unemployment compensation should be paid by you, right? Also, the cost of watermelon loading is troublesome. Give me a price."

The development of the matter was obviously unexpected by Wang Zhengyu. He was speechless for a while, and the previous elation completely disappeared.

After a friendly negotiation, it was decided that there was no need to transport the watermelon back to the mushroom house, and it was directly weighed and loaded on the watermelon field.

Although there is no unemployment compensation that Wang Zhengyu mentioned before, there is still a job to be done.

It is impossible for the car to transport watermelons to wait all the time. It is definitely not good to pick watermelons and expose them to the sun for a long time.

Therefore, they need to build a shady shed on the other side of the watermelon field to store watermelons. In the face of sudden heavy rain, there is also a place to shelter from the rain.

For the work of building the hayloft, the program team provides materials, and they need to complete it by themselves.

Wang Zhengyu insisted on saving some face here, after all, the program group had that kind of tent.

But it's okay.

I had experience in building a verandah before. As long as this kind of grass shed is strong enough to block the sun, it will not even leak, so it is really not difficult.

Looking at the time, it was 03:30, and the others hadn't woken up yet, so Li Xiao planned to build the grass shed by himself first.

On one side of the yard, I found four wooden trunks of about the same length and size. Fearing that they might not be stable, I put two of them on the bucket truck, tied them with ropes, and pulled them out to where the pickup was parked.

Once back and forth, the main materials were all ready, and after finding a ladder and some handy tools, Li Xiao drove his pickup to the watermelon field.

"I think I'm sick, so I chose this time to come out."

Li Xiao half-closed his eyes to look at the sun in the sky, shook his head, and waved his hoe.

The ground was moderately soft and hard, and it didn't take much effort. After a few minutes, Li Xiao dug a hole of about the same size, put the wood upright, filled it with soil, and compacted it.

I pushed it with my hand, and it wobbled a bit, but it's okay, anyway, the load on it won't be too heavy, as long as the four pillars stand up, it will be much more stable, at least it won't collapse.

In the same way, Li Xiao erected the four logs and finished the four pillars of the shed.

At this time, the car that was out to buy vegetables slowly approached.

"Is that Li Xiao?" From a distance, Huang Lei, who was driving, saw the figure busy in the watermelon field.

Fengmei, the co-pilot, leaned forward and confirmed with her eyes wide open, "It seems to be, what is Brother Xiaoxiao doing?"

The two girls in the back row held the seat in front slightly, and stood up to watch.

bububu~
The sound of the car horn sounded, and Li Xiaocai found out that Huang Lei and the others had returned. At this time, he was already starting to build the roof, that is, fixing a paddle on the top with wood, and it was only a piece of plastic sheeting before the completion.

"Are you alone? What are you doing building a shed?" Huang Lei got out of the car.

Li Xiao wiped off his sweat, and said without stopping the work, "I just told Director Wang that after the fruits are picked, you don't need to transport them back to the mushroom house, you can just load them here."

"Oh, it's to make a shade shed for fruits, right?"

Huang Lei understood, and laughed teasingly: "I looked at it from a distance, and thought it was the young man from the village."

Li Xiao didn't respond, his current image was definitely not good, he didn't bother to change clothes, he just wore a short T-shirt and shorts, hole shoes on his feet, and a straw hat, sweating freely.

Fengmei, Yang Xinyue and Meng Qi also got out of the car, wanting to help.

Li Xiao quickly said: "You can help me pass these two pieces of wood up, and you can go back."

The work was finished, and they really didn't need their help, so Huang Lei took the girls back first.

After getting out of the car and walking behind, Yang Xinyue said in disbelief: "I really didn't expect that Li Xiao would do such a thing. I just saw it from a distance, and I thought it was some villager."

Meng Qi nodded in agreement.

Although the two of them are not the kind of fans of Li Xiao, they are indeed his fans.

Li Xiao's image on the stage, as well as the image of the film and television works, is really difficult to relate to the image he just saw.

But there is a saying that is good, as long as a person is handsome, wearing a straw hat and working under the sun is also handsome.

I am used to seeing Li Xiao's radiant appearance, but I have a deep memory of his image just now, and I think it is very attractive.
