Chapter 342: 341. What a coincidence

Not only did he not lose fans, but he also opened a new Chapter in attracting fans in an unconventional way, which completely astounded everyone.

This cute and dumb image, both handsome and down-to-earth, made many netizens exclaim in adoration, making Zhang Yilin an exceptional case in the entertainment industry.

And now, he’s teamed up with Tang Shu again, hasn’t he?

What a coincidence!

"You’re really getting addicted to riding on coattails!"

Everyone collectively sighed at his good luck with his alternative transformation.

After jocular banter for a while, the director finally spoke up, "Teaming up is a matter of luck, now let’s draw lots to form two teams, each with five members."

Ten people lined up neatly and went to the lottery box to draw colored balls.

Those who drew red balls would be on the Red Team; those who drew blue balls would be on the Blue Team.

A minute later, the two teams were decided.

Wang Zhan, Yi Xiaoning, Wang Honghong, Zhao Ming, Teng Xiaoyu formed the Red Team.

Ke Jiazhao, Lu Shen, Tang Shu, Chen Xin, Zhang Yilin formed the Blue Team.

The first game segment started.

As peasants, the primary task was to farm, but to farm, one first needed seeds.

"The first game task is to obtain seeds. There are over 100 shops on this street, among them a few shopkeepers have seeds. Find them, complete their designated tasks, and you can obtain the shopkeeper’s seeds. The team with the most seeds after two hours will get a clue."

Everyone looked down the street and saw it was an ancient commercial street, filled with a wide variety of shops.

"Let’s go, time waits for no one, charge—"

To facilitate completing tasks, Tang Shu’s five-person team immediately split into two groups.

Zhang Yilin and Chen Xin stood by Tang Shu’s side without a word, while Ke Jiazhao and Lu Shen exchanged glances and agreed.

"Then let’s split like this. If there’s any heavy lifting to do, you can come and call us."

After splitting up, everyone headed towards the shopkeepers.

However...

After asking three or four shopkeepers in succession, members from both teams realized something was off.

"What’s going on, they’re not saying whether they have seeds or not?"

Zhang Yilin stood puzzled at the entrance of a Jade Store, his forehead creased with worry.

Chen Xin was equally bemused, "Yeah, the first tofu seller said she wanted a scarf, the second one selling handicrafts said they need writing brush, ink stick, paper, and inkstone; the Bookstore said the books are only for borrowing, not selling, and moreover, there are no more ancient books left—what is he borrowing out then? The weirdest one is this Jade Shop, whose shopkeeper actually said he’s starving to death?!"

Starving to death, how could it be that a Jade Shop shopkeeper could starve to death?

It defied all reason.

The long street was lined with shops, and at the very center was a crossroads, with all the shops spread out along the main streets in the southeast and northwest.

The three stood in the very center, utterly baffled.

"What do we do now? If we’re not sure whether they have seeds in their stores, we need to complete tasks for all 100 shops. But even two hours won’t be enough!"

Indeed, even if they worked themselves to death, two hours wouldn’t be enough.

Tang Shu didn’t speak, but stood at the crossroads, carefully observing the surroundings.

All the shops outside hung a cloth banner bearing the name of the shop, fluttering in the wind, a bustling snapshot of ancient daily life.

Suddenly, her eyebrows twitched, and her gaze landed on a certain spot.

Tang Shu’s lips curled up slightly, "I got it."

"Huh? What?"

"We’ll go to Tofu Beauty’s shop first."

Her decision was final, and the other two, devoid of any plan, chose to follow.
