Chapter 16 It's Lunch Time

After twelve o'clock at noon, Ye Chen sat in the security room and ate a big chicken drumstick. While eating a luxurious lunch, he watched the live broadcasts of other contestants.

Let’s take a look at the first contestant first, that is, the contestant named Li Qian, a female white-collar worker from a cosmetics company.

Because she got up very early in the morning and spent several hours commuting, she was groggy all morning. She kept dozing in her seat and pretended to be working when the boss came.

After finally staying up until noon, it was time to eat.

Because the company does not have a canteen, you can only order takeout or go downstairs to buy it.

But the company stipulated that lunch time was only half an hour, so she could only order takeout on the Yellow Kangaroo platform in advance.

However, the prices in Beijing were ridiculously high. An ordinary bowl of fried noodles cost 38 yuan. How could she be willing to buy it?

It costs nearly 1000 yuan to eat fried noodles this month.

So, she asked her colleagues to order an extra portion of rice for her when ordering takeout.

She only ate a bowl of rice and kimchi that had been pickled in the company in advance.

In order to save money, Li Qian made a jar of kimchi in advance at her rented house, and then brought it to the company. Every day, she would ask her colleagues to order an extra portion of rice for her, and she would just pay the price of one rice.

Then the rice arrived, and she ate the rice and kimchi.

Seeing that she came up with such a way to save money, the audience in the live broadcast room also gave her a thumbs up.

"This eldest sister is a real six. In order to save on rent every month, she takes the bus and subway four hours early in the morning to commute. Now she even brings kimchi to the company to save money for lunch. No one else, really. six."

"No, I really admire this eldest sister. She is the real king of saving money."

"Look at these sisters, and look at Ye Chen, this life is simply incomparable."

"Yes, this white-collar worker looks glamorous on the outside, but in fact he is completely incomparable to Ye Chen, a security guard. His quality of life is not even half as good as Ye Chen's."

Let’s look at the second contestant, the owner of the wooden board factory.

The young owner of a wooden board factory spent the whole morning inspecting various workshops and supervising workers to work. He would also take care of any link he was overwhelmed with.

During lunch, he ate with the workers in the factory cafeteria.

However, the canteen and food in this factory are too simple.

Because the factory is not big and there are only a few dozen workers, the owner of the wooden board factory built a small tin room with only one cook in it.

In order to save money, the boss hired a cooking aunt who was nearly 60 years old.

Because she is so old, the old aunt's cooking skills are no longer good, so she makes a big pot dish every day, stewing radish, cabbage and vermicelli with meat. Although there is meat, the taste is really not that good.

There are no chairs or stools when eating. The workers take their own bowls and chopsticks to serve the food, and then take two steamed buns back to the workshop to eat, or they squat on the ground to eat.

In fact, these workers were very dissatisfied with the lunch conditions. However, seeing that the factory boss was eating with them, the workers were too embarrassed to raise the issue of food.

Looking at live broadcast room No. 3, the third contestant is also the delivery guy who received the most votes at the beginning.

Since dawn, the little brother has been running non-stop for takeout. He had a cold steamed bun for breakfast, which he ate in the car.

I ran until [-] noon. While waiting for the order to be cleared, I bought a hand cake and had lunch in the car.

He can handle the non-stop work of the younger brother, but it is difficult for him to follow the cameraman who is filming.

In order to keep up with the delivery boy, this eldest brother didn't even eat in the morning, and he didn't even have time to eat at noon.

As a last resort, the eldest brother had to find someone to take over his shift. He went to have a meal and rest for a while, and then continued filming.Seeing that the takeaway boy was still working hard to deliver the food, compared to the previous praises, there were also some different voices in the comment area.

"It's amazing! It's so hard-working! I've been watching this takeaway guy from beginning to end. It's so inspiring! In just one morning, he made nearly a hundred orders. From now on, I will also Learn from him!"

"I really admire him too. If I had done this to him, I might have been lying in bed unable to move for half a month."

"I just came out of Ye Chen's live broadcast room. I feel that this kind of work is too depressing. I still prefer Ye Chen's leisurely and comfortable work."

"Ye Chen's security job is very leisurely, but his salary is low, only more than 4000 yuan a month. Look at this delivery boy, although he is very miserable every day, he can earn more than 2 yuan a month. It’s equivalent to Ye Chen working for five months.”

"But what's the point of asking for money? If you work like him day and night, your health will suffer sooner or later."

"What are you afraid of? We are still young, and it doesn't matter if we suffer a little when we are young!"

Although there were many different voices in the live broadcast room, there were also many people who supported the delivery boy.

Because everyone has been instilled with this idea since childhood.

When you are young, you must endure hardship!

If you don't endure hardship, you will have no future.

As long as you endure more hardships, you will definitely be successful in the future!

Look at the live broadcast room of contestant No. [-], that is, the loading and unloading guy.

This guy has been lying on his dark bed sleeping since he got off work in the morning, snoring loudly.

Even though it is now twelve o'clock in the afternoon, this guy is still sleeping.

The audience in the live broadcast room can also understand this.

After all, this guy worked from 06pm yesterday to 30am this morning, a full twelve hours, and he started sleeping at [-]:[-].

It was only twelve o'clock, and I had only slept for five and a half hours.

Under such high-intensity work, I have to sleep for at least eight or nine hours before waking up.

It was the easiest thing to follow the cameraman who filmed him.

Like the camera guy who was taking pictures of the takeaway guy, he didn't even have time to eat.

Look at him again. He has been sitting here all morning. He just set up a camera and there is no need to ask questions.

However, the environmental conditions are a bit too difficult.

During lunch, the eldest brother couldn't eat at the door, so he ran far away to eat.

But even if he ran far away, he still had no appetite at all when he thought about the dormitory where the loading and unloading boy stayed.

Normally he could spin two portions of rice in one mouthful, but now he hasn't finished even one portion.

Return to Ye Chen's live broadcast room.

Ye Chen ate all the three dishes and rice for lunch, threw the finished packaging box into the bag, tied it and put it in the trash can, then continued to lie on the chair and started watching TV shows and playing on his phone.

Thanks to Yechen, the cameraman who took the photo of him also had a quiet lunch.
