The first stop of the program is a beautiful place called Maolan, located in the southeast of Guizhou Province, with karst landforms rare in China. Because the area is still in a semi-developed state, with a large area of ​​primitive jungle, which is most in line with the requirements of the program team.

The biggest feature of Maolan is that the underground river runs through the entire area. It can be said that there are springs in three steps and lakes in five steps. They are all the best natural mineral water, so it is extremely convenient to get water.

Zhou Dong's Wuchang rice was prepared from home when he arrived, and it was not a top-notch one. However, as soon as this rice was passed by him, it immediately became the top Wuchang rice used to pay tribute to the emperor.

It is said that not all the five-constant rice could be used for tribute back then. Only the "Green Fly Rice" produced in three or four acres of land is the top-notch product and is qualified to enter the homeland.

The top green fly rice is not only round and visible after being cooked, but also the rice heads appear green and have a faint greasy light, just like the head of a green fly. The rice is as fragrant as orchid, rich in nutrition. Even without side dishes, it tastes the same sweet.

Zhou Dong walked out a few dozen meters and found a small lake. He took water to wash the rice, lit an alcohol stove and started steaming in a thin clay pot.

This pot of rice consumed hundreds of praises, so he naturally used the legendary vegetable washing skills and had to use this most traditional way of cooking.

Modern people are already accustomed to cooking rice with rice cookers, but they don’t know that the rice made in this way is soulless and is simply wasteing food!

A truly delicious rice must be cooked in a thin clay pot. First, cook it on a civil and military heat until the soup is basically gone, then press the low heat and simmer on the stove. While simmering, you also need to rotate the clay pot at all times to keep the thick bottom of the jar heat more and the thin bottom of the jar heat less. A can of rice usually takes more than half an hour. Only by making rice in this way can you get a browned and crispy pot crumb, which is the first-class delicacy in the world.

The people from the program team and several celebrity guests watched Zhou Dong get water and cook, especially the way of cooking in thin clay pots made them almost think that they had traveled to ancient times. They had seen such scenes in TV series, but they had never seen them in real life. Not to mention today in the 21st century, even in the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China, no one used this thing to cook?

Huang Bo looked at the compressed biscuits in his hand and the shriveled vegetables dug out of the can, and then looked at the rice-flavored crock pots gradually appearing from Zhou Dong, swallowing secretly, "Chef Zhou, why do you bring an alcohol stove when you go out? Also, do you like to use crock pots when cooking?"

"Haha, Teacher Huang doesn't know anything about it. Whether you use an iron pot or a stainless steel rice cooker to cook, you will inevitably lose the word "transparent".

Rice is like a human being. People need breathing to survive. Doesn’t rice need it?

The clay pot has a low density, higher permeability, and a gentle heat, so it is much better than using a metal pot. This is why it is also necessary to decoct Chinese medicine; because both Chinese medicine and grain are born from the essence of the sun and the moon, and the earth's energy, and of course it is a clay pot made of soil closer to the soil."

Zhou Dong smiled and turned the clay pot down and simmered it on the alcohol stove. "As for this alcohol stove, if we chefs don't bring an alcohol stove with us, can we still be considered professionals?

In fact, it is mainly because of limited time. If I have enough time, I don’t like using it. The rice cooked with firewood is more fragrant.”

Huang Bodai looked at Zhou Dong for a while, shook his head for a long time and said, "It's so particular about food, Chef Zhou is so particular about food!"

To be honest, I have never eaten rice cooked in a clay pot when I grow up so old.”

Several celebrities looked at Zhou Dong and thought to themselves that Huang Bo was just asking casually, do you need to say so in detail? We only have compressed biscuits and canned vegetables in our hands!

After about thirty minutes of touching, Zhou Dong sniffed the overflowing rice fragrance from the clay pot. Knowing that the heat had come, he hurriedly took the clay pot down and put a whole can of rice into the large lunch box requested from the program team. He poured all the braised sauce meat into the clay pot and heated it on the alcohol stove.

After a while, the smell of pork belly and the unique aroma of beans and radish after eating the oil came out of the can, and mercilessly penetrated into the noses of hungry celebrity guests.

"It's so delicious. The rice looks like it's not ordinary rice!"

Cheng Yuqi took a bite of the compressed biscuit and found something wrong. The thing was almost the same as chewing wood chips in her mouth. She felt uncomfortable if she didn't drink water. She swelled so hard when drinking water, which made her photogenic melon-shaped face swell into a small round face!

When someone was not paying attention, Cheng Yuqi secretly spitted out. She looked at Zhou Dong who was hot, thinking about how to eat it? The rice looked very delicious!

In fact, not only these guests, but also the people in the program team looked at Zhou Dong.

Although the lunch box provided by Mango TV is pretty good, I don’t know why, but it tastes the same as chewing wax at this time. It’s the so-called fear of not being afraid of not knowing the goods, but being afraid of comparing goods.

The camera can see the clearest in the long-distance high-definition camera. Zhou Dongsheng's rice in the bowl is like a soldier who has undergone strict training. The plump rice grains are neatly arranged, and the rice heads are green and transparent, just like emeralds!

Teacher Huang took a breath after seeing it, "This is green fly rice!

Look at the heads of those "rice-headed" look like green-headed flies?

This is the legendary tribute rice. It is said that it can grow in the production area not every acre of land. It only depends on whether the rainfall was abundant, whether the ground abilities were strong enough, and no conditions could be produced."

Teacher He said astonished, "Is it so precious?"

"That's right? I heard that whenever the 'green fly rice' is produced, some wealthy bosses drive in a special car and bring boxes of money to buy.

But even if they traveled all the way to the place of production, it would be a little bit more to say whether they could buy green fly rice.

But they still rush to try their luck every year, because the rice is not only very delicious, but is said to be very nutritious, and has the title of 'rice ginseng'."

"Oh, that's it"

Teacher He nodded, picked up an empty lunch box and walked towards Zhou Dong with a smile.

"Brother Zhou, you cooked a lot of rice. I'm afraid you can't finish it alone, right?"

"Yes, this is the first time I cooked this rice. I didn't expect it to be quite good, I'm afraid I can't finish it."

The big white bowl in Zhou Dong's hand was almost as big as a person's head. There were two browned crumbs piled on a large bowl of green fly rice, just like a hill.

"This is the first time I have seen such good rice. If Brother Zhou can't finish it, let me help you digest it?"

"That's OK, but Teacher He, can you eat my food? Are you not afraid of violating the program team's regulations?"

"Haha, I'm not a guest, I don't need to be subject to this restriction at the moment.

Unless we wait for 'Beg' to arrive, if he wants to restrict me, I can only be the same as everyone else."

"Oh, this Beg has a lot of power?"

Zhou Dong said while Teacher He gave him a bowl of rice, and he also gave him a piece of two crumbs. The green rice was piled with golden crumbs, just like a huge piece of gold-inlaid jade, which made everyone extremely envious. Teacher He, you are really unkind!

"Yes, our show has two soul characters, one is you, Zhou Di, who represents the 'angel', and the other is 'Beg', who represents the devil.

But you, an angel, participate in the show once a week, but he will be there every day. Well, I guess we will join him in Qinglong Lake in front of you

I won’t say much, I’m really hungry.”

Seeing green fly rice at close range is different from watching from a distance. The tempting rice fragrance made Teacher He salivate, and he felt that he could eat a big bowl without vegetables!

He picked up the chopsticks and was about to make a prescription, but Zhou Dong stopped him and said, "First eat a few bites of rice, and then pour the rice with braised sauce and meat, is the most correct way to eat it."

"Oh, I know it's delicious"

The emerald-like rice grains are just chewed in your mouth for a few times, and the sweet fragrance fills the whole body and mind. With the sound of chewing the crust of the pot, the braised sauce meat that has been so hot that it has rolled with peanuts, soybeans, dried tofu diced diced radish in a bowl, and stir it gently with chopsticks for a few times. The taste is just for a god!

The two of them ate very sweetly, but they suffered a few celebrity guests. Wu Jing was fine. When he was training at an African base, he had never eaten any bitterness? Compressed biscuits were considered an "old friend".

But where have other people ever experienced such bitterness? I have heard of compressed biscuits. I only realized that this thing is too tricky when I actually ate it in my mouth. Not only does it mean that it is dry and unpalatable, but it will even choke in my throat if it is not done properly.

In fact, even in the field team, this thing is only used for emergency response. Not to mention that the young soldiers from the big Americans will not eat it, our Chinese Army team will also be served by the kitchen team under normal circumstances.

Looking at the steaming hot and fragrant bowls of Zhou Dong and Teacher He, the green fly rice that had been sucked in the gravy became more and more crystal clear in the sun. Even the saliva of the two little beauties Cheng Yuqi and Shu Chang was almost dripping onto their chests. Shu Lei Lei had never suffered this. He threw the compressed biscuits to the ground and said angrily, "I haven't seen 'Brother' yet, and I torture us like this. When will it be the first?"

No, I also want to eat Chef Zhou’s rice and what kind of dish he has?"

Teacher Huang, who was also dissatisfied with the feeling of "stewed sauce meat."

"Yes, it's just braised sauce meat, it's so fragrant! I've never eaten this kind of delicacy!"

Teacher He quickly took a few mouthfuls of food, looked up and replied, "That's not OK. If you violate the contract, you will have to pay a penalty for breach of contract, and it will be gone."

After saying that, he picked up his bowl and looked at Shuai Leilei, "Teacher Sun, look, I didn't lie to you, are you?"

Zhou Dong nodded, "It's really gone."

Several celebrities looked at me, and I looked at you, touching the gurgling stomach, and she was crying without tears. Huang Bo looked at Zhou Dong and smiled bitterly, "Brother Zhou, are you playing an angel or a devil?

I beg you, can you not let us see it next time you have dinner?

You can eat meat, but please don’t smack your lips, this is also a kind of kindness!”

The atmosphere suddenly became a little awkward. It was already 60 or nine out of spring, but I didn’t feel particularly cold in the mountains in the south. At this moment, Zhou Dong felt the cold wind whizzing and subconsciously shrank his neck.

The six pairs of eyes of the celebrity guest had turned into twelve knives and were staring at him coldly.

As the saying goes, food is the most important thing for people, and using delicious food to greed for people is the most hateful thing. Now even Cheng Yuqi is very angry. Zhou Xiaochu, do you know that I could have barely eaten compressed biscuits, but now even if I take a look at it, I will feel disgusting! This is all because of you, you will compensate!

"Well"

Zhou Dong felt something was wrong and had to change the conflict as soon as possible. He looked at Teacher He and said, "Teacher He, isn't the program team too much? Isn't 'Big Brother' still there yet? If this continues, I, the 'angel chef', may change my character and become a demon chef. I'm afraid it will be unfavorable to the show?"

"Brother Zhou, this has nothing to do with you. This is how we arrange it. The guests need to adapt to this kind of life."

“How can I say it doesn’t matter?

Thinking about it now, I don’t think I should have steamed rice at this time, and I shouldn’t have taken out the braised sauce meat. I really didn’t expect that you wouldn’t even offer lunch boxes to the guests and celebrities, so that they could eat compressed biscuits to see us eat rice sauce meat. This seems very unkind.”

"Uh, Brother Zhou, it seems that it makes sense if you say this?"

Teacher He fell into deep thought and according to the arrangement of the Taiwanese book, Zhou Dong could naturally eat boxed lunches for this meal, and the guests and celebrities used to compress cookies to make them. The contrast was not too big. After all, according to the contract regulations, during the shooting of the program, the guests still had boxed lunches and soups for each night, which would not kill people!

Moreover, Mango TV believes that feeding guests until they are half full is actually more interesting.

But who would have thought that Zhou Dong actually carried rice and vegetables with him? And after hearing from Teacher Huang, it was a serious "road dish", which was not only easy to store, but also tasted very beautiful.

The contrast is a bit big. Teacher He saw that Shuai Leilei's face had begun to become gloomy, and other celebrities also began to be angry, and they were somewhat nervous. It is not uncommon for celebrity guests to turn against the TV station because of improper program arrangements. Moreover, he did go to Zhou Dong's meal just now, which may arouse people's anger.

"What do you mean by Brother Zhou?"

Teacher He is a smart person. At this time, he wants to go down the steps. Zhou Dong is the right person to give the ladder.

"Teacher He, you won't let the guests eat compressed biscuits and canned vegetables every time, right?"

"Of course not. The content of the program is to let the guests learn fishing and hunting methods, and rely on their own abilities to obtain food and points. If they cannot obtain food or have no points, they will not be able to eat even compressed biscuits."

Suddenly seeing Wu Jing looking at him with a cold look, Teacher He laughed and said, "Actually, fishing and hunting is not too difficult. Bei Ge will naturally teach everyone, and Teacher Wu has also received training in this regard, right? Teacher Wu?"

Seeing Wu Jing's expression relaxed, Teacher He secretly breathed a sigh of relief, "We can't really starve the guests. There is still a 'guaranteed meal' every day. This meal does not require points redemption. We will provide lunch boxes and soup every night.

We will tell the audience in the show that our show is not about showing off in front of the camera, turning off the camera and having a big meal! That's all our care for the guests."

It sounds like Mango TV is serious this time, and Zhou Dong nodded secretly. Compared with those TV stations that deceived the audience, Mango TV is actually quite conscientious this time.

"I'm so greedy that I'm also responsible. Can Teacher He give me some face? He sent the lunch box for the evening in advance and let everyone have a full meal?"

Hearing Zhou Dong say this, the eyes of several celebrity guests suddenly became extremely friendly when they looked at him. This is the angel! Chef Zhou, you are a good person!
