Chapter 472 - 469: Best Actress 36 - A 6,000-Word -
Besides the axe, salt is also essential. In the wilderness, without salt, food is utterly tasteless, and more importantly, lacking salt intake can lead to weakness and reduced physical strength.
As a result, there wasn’t much discussion needed. With these two essential items in hand, there was no opportunity to choose other things. Shuangshuang’s eyes lingered longingly on the various seasonings, a bit reluctant. If they had these seasonings, their taste buds would suffer much less in the future.
After Shuangshuang finished choosing, it was the male star group’s turn to pick items. The male star group had only one chance to choose, and everything available was packed in boxes. Without opening them, they couldn’t know if what they picked was useful or if they had drawn a bad card with a rock.
Lin Xichen was chosen by the male star group as the one to try his luck, and it turned out his luck was quite good. He actually picked a large barrel of peanut oil! And it wasn’t a small one-pound barrel, but at least four pounds!
This luck was incredible. Shuangshuang watched with immense envy. She had been eyeing that oil for a long time, and if she had one more chance, she would’ve definitely picked that oil next. She didn’t expect the male star group to snag it.
Oil is an essential item for cooking delicious food, and they managed to grab a big barrel. If used sparingly, it could last for half a month easily.
Yu Yingjie saw Shuangshuang couldn’t take her eyes off the oil barrel and couldn’t help but shake his head with amusement. Shuangshuang had always presented herself with composure and grace, and it was rare to see her show such a childlike expression.
Yu Yingjie emptied one of the bottles of mineral water given by the show today. This place was near a river, and the river water was particularly clean, with spring water nearby that could be drunk directly, so they didn’t lack water. Yu Yingjie, without any hesitation, poured out the mineral water, then took the empty bottle and half a bag of salt, along with four fish, to trade with the male star group for a bottle of peanut oil.
Shuangshuang watched as Yu Yingjie brought back the oil, catching his teasing gaze. Her face turned slightly red, knowing her gaze earlier was a bit too blatant. She coughed awkwardly and pulled Yun Chuching to walk towards the camping area.
Yu Yingjie didn’t say anything, just exchanged a smile with Qi Qing, and followed Shuangshuang and Yun Chuching back. They still had to eat in the evening.
