CHAPTER 56: CHAPTER 56: BROTHER, RUN FASTER

At the first stall, they managed to buy three vegetables: potatoes, corn, and napa cabbage.

To quickly find the other two, Qin Yun remembered one of them was called horned vegetables, it had to have horns!

The three asked about all the vegetables with "horns" and finally found the horned vegetable.

With the base knowledge from before, finding the last lettuce was much easier, eliminating the previously queried ones, and soon they found the lettuce.

Logically, this vegetable should be the easiest to identify, but with these three, two have never been down to earth before. Finally coming down, Pei Yan was a rich kid who never needed to do anything.

As for Qin Yun...

She only knows how to eat, she couldn’t recognize these things.

Yang Leqi was the same, pampered from a young age, she didn’t even know whether these grew on trees or in the soil.

Compared to this team’s smooth sailing, Wang Sirui’s team initially struggled with communication problems, wasting quite a bit of time.

Finally, Wang Sirui proposed buying everything to avoid wasting time, simplifying a tough exchange.

Once everyone bought all the vegetables, they immediately returned to the examiner for identification.

Fans in the live stream were jumping between the two live streams, worried their idols would lose.

Especially seeing the other group buying everything and heading back too, their excitement hit the roof.

[Aaaah, Brother run! The other group is done shopping too!]

[This fool actually has enough brains! Knows to buy everything!]

[Quick, quick, quick, rush! Almost catching up!]

[I hate not being Su Bingtian! No legs for sprinting!]

[Mom asked what I was doing, yelling so loudly; I said I was watching the champion sprint! Just a variety show competition, yet it’s got my adrenaline soaring.]

[Aaaah, catching up, catching up! Brother, run fast!!]

Qin Yun’s team had just set down their items for a few seconds when Chen Yao’s team arrived.

Without a food identifier, aside from their vague familiarity, they could only use the simplest method: buying everything and trying each, eventually one would be right!

At this point, everyone realized the previous words of the director about money earning giving an advantage were meant for this moment!!

It really turns out, if there’s not enough money, you can’t buy everything!

If there’s lots of money, buy a bit of each in one go, one would have to be right!

"Mr. Pei’s team arrived first, so they identify first." The director’s team paused a moment as the other team arrived, before saying.

The director took each item out to compare.

"Potato, correct."

"Corn, correct."

"Horned vegetable, correct."

"Napa cabbage, correct."

"Lettuce, correct."

"Congratulations to Mr. Pei’s team, everything is correct," the director said with a smile.

"Ah, director, we haven’t identified ours yet." Wang Sirui said breathlessly, with difficulty.

Wang Sirui ran back exhausted like a dead dog, then hearing the director say Mr. Pei’s team had everything correct, didn’t it mean they lost without needing identification...

"Yeah director, we bought them with great effort." Qin Hao couldn’t help but sound a bit coquettish.

"It doesn’t affect your identification," the director said.

Chen Yao: "Like this? Then let’s identify."

So the director picked them up one by one.

"Incorrect.

"This is also incorrect."

"Still incorrect."

...

"Turnip, correct."

"Swamp spinach, correct."

"Pea shoots, correct."

...

"Hmm... the correct ones can be combined freely, however... Mr. Pei’s team arrived first, so the winner is Mr. Pei’s team," the director said cruelly after finishing the identification.

"Ah, I was so fast, how did I still lose." Wang Sirui staggered back a few steps, slumped onto the sofa.

"For the wrong ones, remember to eat them all." The director reminded upon hearing.

"It’s fine, I’ll make hot pot!!! Since we lost, anyway, we have to eat, I’ll go buy more!" Wang Sirui immediately bounced up from the sofa upon hearing.

"Director, can the winners also join the hot pot?" Upon hearing hot pot, forgot all about winning and asked with eyes shining.

The director was speechless, "Um, you ask them."

"I can bring my own ingredients!" Qin Yun turned her head, saying seriously.

The live stream viewers sighed upon seeing this.

[If I remember correctly, Qin Yun ate one and a half portions of noodles an hour ago... two boxes of octopus balls... plus a pancake roll...]

[Umm, if anyone ever says boys eat a lot again, I’ll throw this video at them.]

[Not to lie to you all, Qin Yun has already eaten my day’s worth and half more by noon...]

[I suddenly have words, don’t know whether to say or not...]

[Eating so much, really okay?]

Then turning around, hearing Wang Sirui naturally respond: "Of course, let’s do it together then, hot pot tastes better with more people."

"I’ll pass, I already overate just now." Yang Leqi rubbed her still undigested stomach, grimacing.

"What about Mr. Pei?" Chen Yao asked.

"Him, don’t bother, immortal men don’t need to eat." Qin Yun casually remarked.

In her mind, Pei Yan was always someone who didn’t overly indulge in food.

Even if he did eat, it was just a little, then no more.

Pei Yan glanced at Qin Yun and suddenly said: "I’m not hungry, but I can eat a little."

Qin Yun instinctively turned her head: "???"

Wasn’t he supposed to not indulge much in food?

"Alright then, we’ll go buy some vegetables and hot pot base, Sister Yun, can you borrow a hot plate from the hotel?" Wang Sirui distributed jobs and pulled the other two to leave.

"We have a few hundred left, all for you, don’t worry about running out, buy everything, don’t be afraid of leftovers." Qin Yun got the remaining money from Pei Yan, gave it to Wang Sirui seriously.

"Got it, got it." Wang Sirui thought of Qin Yun’s stomach comparable to several guys, immediately nodded in agreement.

When the three headed to the market again, it was about 3 PM and they hadn’t eaten anything.

Halfway there, Wang Sirui thought of the money they had now! Why not buy some snacks to curb their hunger?

The three decisively went into a bakery while passing by and bought some bread.

Walking and eating, couldn’t help but sigh, "It feels great having something in the stomach. Not being hungry feels great."

Now that they had money, they bought quite a bit of beef, shrimp paste, lamb, fresh shrimp, tripe. Also got some butterfish, yellow throat, duck intestines.

Returning with their hands full of big and small bags.

Qin Yun borrowed a hot plate from the hotel, got some disposable bowls and chopsticks, decided to eat in Pei Yan’s room, as it was the largest accommodating the most people.

By the time they started eating hot pot, it was nearly 4 PM.

This time was exactly when office workers were hungry, some sneaking peeks at the live stream, seeing them eating hot pot made their stomachs growl louder.

All complained in the live stream, calling it poisoning!

[Others poison late night, you all poison in the afternoon! Don’t you know this time is awkwardly in-between hunger?!]
