Mushroom House.
He Jiong, Huang Lei, and the others were all busy with their own things.
Huang Lei was in the kitchen arranging the ingredients provided by the program crew.
Xia Ruofei ordered pork stewed with vermicelli, but there was neither pork nor vermicelli here. However, according to the rules of the program, there was 100 yuan for food expenses every day. There was also a market in Xiaotang Town, but with so many people, 100 yuan was not enough to buy too many ingredients. They had to be careful with their spending.
Everyone stopped what they were doing when they heard a knock on the door.
He Jiong said in an exaggerated tone, "Students! The guest is here! Welcome the guest … "
Zhang Xing quickly said, "I'll go open the door!"
As a newcomer this season, although Zhang Xing was a popular little fresh meat, he had always kept a low profile. Of course, this was also related to his personality. He was a very gentle person, and even seemed to be a little submissive.
Zhang Xing quickly walked over and opened the wooden door.
Xia Ruofei held the handle of the suitcase with one hand and a bright smile on his face. He waved at Zhang Xing and said, "Hello, Zhang Xing!"
Xia Ruofei already knew who the permanent guest of the program was. Zhang Xing was very popular on the Internet, and there were not many people who did not know him. Although Xia Ruofei did not pay much attention to entertainment news, he could still recognize Zhang Xing.
When Zhang Xing saw Xia Ruofei, he was stunned. He opened his eyes wide and pointed at Xia Ruofei, stuttering, "You … you …"
Xia Ruofei raised his eyebrows and asked, "You … know me?"
Zhang Xing came back to his senses and shouted excitedly, "Of course I know you! Boss Xia! You're my idol! "
Xia Ruofei could not help but be stunned. He touched his nose and said humorously, "Zhang Xing, if you say that … will your fans kill me?"
Zhang Xing's Weibo fans were in the tens of millions.
Zhang Xing scratched his head embarrassedly and said, "No, no … I'm not only your fan, but I'm also a loyal user of your company! It's just that your Jade Skin Ointment is too hard to get … "
Fine! Another wave of advertisements appeared out of nowhere.
Of course, this was not arranged by the program group. Zhang Xing didn't know at first that Xiangnan Satellite TV had invited Xia Ruofei. What he said just now was completely from the heart.
As a popular artist, Zhang Xing naturally knew that he couldn't casually mention specific brands and products on the show. However, this was a recorded show after all, and it had to be edited later on, so he didn't pay special attention to this point.
However, Zhang Xing would never have thought that not only would his words not be edited out, but they might even be highlighted during post-production.
Xia Ruofei didn't expect Zhang Xing to be so honest. After being stunned for a moment, he said with a smile, "Our company will cover all the Yuji ointment you use in the future!"
Zhang Xing said excitedly, "Really? That's great! Then there would be no need to rush to buy anymore! Thank you, Boss Xia … I'll promote your products more in the future! "
To be honest, even if Zhang Xing slightly promoted the Taoyuan Company's Jade Skin Ointment on his Weibo, the advertising fee would be worth a lot of Jade Skin Ointment.
Xia Ruofei said with a smile, "Then I'll thank you in advance!"
While the two were chatting, He Jiong, Huang Lei, and Peng Chang also came over following the sound.
"Xiao Xing! Why are you still standing there and chatting? Quickly invite our guest in! " He Jiong walked over with a smile and said, "Let me see who this mysterious guest with a northeastern accent is … Wow! Wow, wow, wow … Am I seeing things! Oh my God … "
He Jiong showed a very surprised and surprised expression, as if he didn't know the identity of the guest in advance.
Otherwise, why would he be called a professional?
"Boss Xia!" Huang Lei also showed an inexplicable look of surprise, "The program group is too amazing! They actually invited you to participate in the recording … "
He Jiong also said with a smile, "The director wants an extra drumstick! This guest is tough enough! "
Peng Chang naturally also recognized Xia Ruofei, but as a newcomer, he didn't come forward to curry favor with him. Instead, he stood at the side and smiled shyly.
Xia Ruofei grinned and said, "Teacher He! Teacher Huang! Peng Peng! Hello … "
"Hello Boss Xia!" He Jiong said enthusiastically, "Boss Xia actually knows us! That's a bit surprising! "
Peng Chang also smiled, showing his white teeth, and said, "Yeah! Yeah! I didn't expect Boss Xia to actually know me! I'm really flattered … "
Huang Lei smiled and said to Xia Ruofei, "Boss Xia, welcome, welcome! Quickly come in! "
"Yes, yes, yes! Let's go in and talk! "He Jiong said," Peng Peng, what are you waiting for? Hurry up and help Boss Xia with his luggage! You have a good eye! "
"Oh! Oh! Oh! "Peng Chang hurriedly came over and took Xia Ruofei's luggage.
"Thank you!" Xia Ruofei said with a smile.
Surrounded by He Jiong and the others, Xia Ruofei walked into the courtyard of the Mushroom Hut.
He looked at the building curiously.
It was a small two-story building with a very spacious courtyard outside. There was also a sheep pen on the side, and a long awning was set up at the outermost part of the courtyard. There was a coffee table, reclining chairs, and so on inside. It was very enjoyable to look at the scenery here.
The whole building was built in the style of a small farmhouse. There were straw raincoats, bamboo hats, and some farming tools hanging on the outer walls under the eaves. There were also two sheep in the sheep pen, and they were bleating.
In addition, there were two dogs running around in the courtyard, and a cute Muscovy Duck was also waddling around in the courtyard.
Including the roof of the awning, it was made of thatch. Of course, it was waterproof during construction. The thatch was more of a decoration. In addition, the bamboo used to build the awning was verdant, and it gave off an original vibe.
Xia Ruofei knew that everything in the Mushroom Hut would be maintained as it was after a whole season of filming. This area would become a special experience area of the clubhouse, specially for guests to experience village life. When the time came, the whole building could be rented out for clubhouse members who came over for a family vacation.
Therefore, Xia Ruofei looked at it very carefully.
He Jiong and the others invited Xia Ruofei into the Mushroom Hut. He looked around. On this floor, other than the kitchen and tool room on the left side of the door, the rest of the area was basically a whole hall. The kitchen and the living room were separated by an antique shelf.
Half of the hall was raised, and the first and second floors were completely connected.
There were comfortable sofas in the living room, and a large piece of soft carpet with small tables on it. The guests could sit on the floor and chat together, drink tea together, or play some card games.
"Boss Xia, you can take a look around first!" He Jiong said with a smile.
"Okay!" Xia Ruofei replied.
He walked up the wooden stairs to the second floor and turned out of the staircase. The first room was designed with a large bunk. Zhang Xing, who had been accompanying Xia Ruofei, introduced that this was the bedroom for the few permanent guests.
After passing through the bunk bedroom, there was a corridor. One side of the corridor was suspended, and one could directly see the living room below. This was the raised area of the living room. Xia Ruofei leaned on the railing and waved at He Jiong downstairs.
After passing through this corridor, there were two symmetrical rooms, one on the left and one on the right. The furnishings inside were also very simple. It was the most basic furniture, such as a large bed, a wardrobe, and a desk.
Zhang Xing smiled and said, "Boss Xia, these two rooms are for the flying guests to stay in when they come to record the show. Because sometimes male and female guests will participate in the recording at the same time, we specially prepared two rooms. However, you are the only guest in the first episode, so you can choose whichever room you want! "
Xia Ruofei asked with a smile, "What's the difference between the two rooms?"
Zhang Xing smiled and said, "Peng Peng and I did some research this morning! One of these two rooms is facing the courtyard. When you open the window, you can see the situation in the courtyard, so we call it the 'courtyard view room.' The one opposite is facing the back of the mountain. When you open the window, you can see the lush vegetation, so … "
"So it's the 'mountain view room'?" Xia Ruofei smiled and continued Zhang Xing's words.
"Correct!" Zhang Xing said, "Boss Xia, which one do you like?"
Xia Ruofei pointed to the 'courtyard view room' on the left without thinking and said, "Then I'll stay in this one!"
This room was not just a courtyard view room. After all, there was a beautiful lake in front of the small courtyard. Standing by the window, one could completely overlook the lake and the mountains. In fact, this was a lake-view room.
"Okay!" Zhang Xing said, "Then I'll help you bring your luggage in!"
"Thank you!" Xia Ruofei said with a gentle smile.
He followed Zhang Xing into the room and went straight to open the window to take a look. Indeed, he could see the sparkling surface of the lake not far away.
After putting the luggage in, Xia Ruofei went to the room opposite to take a look. The scenery there was much worse than the one on the left. After all, there were only some small hills here. The so-called back of the mountain was only slightly higher than this one. Looking into the distance, he could faintly see the dusty construction site.
Of course, the camera placed by the show's crew was designed to not capture the busy construction site in the distance.
After coming out of the room and walking further in, there was the bathroom.
For the convenience of filming, there were also two bathrooms on the left and right, with men on the left and women on the right.
In the middle was a large mirror and a long basin, enough for several people to wash up at the same time.
Xia Ruofei took a look and realized that the Jade Skin Ointment was placed in the most eye-catching position.
The cosmetics here were said to be for the guests to use, but in fact, this was a kind of product placement.
If it were not for the fact that the Taoyuan Company only had Jade Skin Ointment, then this season's show would probably only have the Taoyuan Company's products.
Unfortunately, this was not the case now. After all, the Taoyuan Company's products were a little monotonous. Therefore, there were other brands of shampoo, shower gel, facial cleanser, and so on on the basin.
The brands that could appear here must have paid advertising fees. For Xia Ruofei to be able to have so many product placements without spending a single cent, this treatment was simply incomparable.
After walking around upstairs, Xia Ruofei followed Zhang Xing downstairs.
While Xia Ruofei was looking around, there were also cameramen who were carrying equipment and filming.
In fact, in the entire Mushroom House, there were also many staff members in addition to the guests. However, they were all in their designated areas and would definitely not appear in front of the camera.
This included when He Jiong and Huang Lei were making tea. They looked very relaxed, but in fact, there were at least ten to twenty staff members not far away from them. They were drinking tea under the watchful eyes of everyone and chatting casually. If it were an ordinary person, they would have felt uncomfortable all over.
However, He Jiong and the others were professionals after all. They had graduated from professional classes, and this was something that Xia Ruofei could not compare to.
However, Xia Ruofei was still very calm and relaxed. He did not look like a rookie who was filming for the first time at all. He directly treated the staff members outside the range of the camera as air. He was just like how he usually was during filming.
When He Jiong saw Xia Ruofei walking down the stairs, he immediately came over to greet him. "Boss Xia, Teacher Huang has gone to prepare lunch!"
Xia Ruofei smiled and said, "Is that so? Teacher Huang is really working hard! "
Then, Xia Ruofei said, "Teacher He, arrange some work for me too! Although I'm here as a guest, I can't just sit back and enjoy the fruits of others' labor! I have to find some work to do! "
He Jiong said happily, "Boss Xia, guests who take the initiative to find work are most welcome here! You don't know, but last season, there was a popular talk show artist, Li Mou. I won't say his specific name! Give him some face … This Li Mou is simply lazy to the extreme. Basically, as long as he can lie down, he definitely won't sit. Even if he sits, he's the kind that's unsteady. Also, when he's assigned work to do, it's either he can't do it or he doesn't have the strength … "
When He Jiong said this, he said to the camera beside him, "Li Mou! Look at how diligent Boss Xia is! This is the difference between us! "
He Jiong and this popular talk show artist actually had a good personal relationship, which was why he joked about his laziness.
In fact, the other party wouldn't mind such a joke between friends at all. And it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that mentioning your name on the show and having such a short interaction was also to increase the other party's popularity.
This was a bit like the "smashing" in crosstalk, which was to make fun of the other party. Only those who had a particularly good relationship would be smashed on stage by the crosstalk actor.
Xia Ruofei was a bit embarrassed by He Jiong's praise. He said, "Teacher He, you're exaggerating … Why don't you tell me what work to do?"
He Jiong chuckled and said, "Let me think! Peng Peng is in charge of chopping the firewood. He's very experienced in this, so we'll leave the firewood to him. We don't have to worry about it … Xiao Xing has to clean the sheep pen and feed the animals living in the mushroom house. Then … "
He Jiong paused for a moment before continuing, "There are still two tasks left. One is to go to town with me to buy groceries. Didn't you want to eat pork stewed with vermicelli? We have to go buy the ingredients! Also, go to the greenhouse to water the vegetables and pick some back. Boss Xia, you can choose one! "
