The first link is team competition. Three people from each team will participate in three competitions. They will be scored according to the speed and degree of completion. Finally, the location for collecting ingredients will be selected based on the total score.
The four options are picking strawberries to make jam, making bread, milking cows to make cheese and fishing. Top-ranked teams will be selected first.
The competition events were all conducted using the cross-country challenge facilities in the camp. The Matsumura team sent three generals: Sayuri Matsumura, Marika Ito, and Yuri Saito, while Soi Amamiya was responsible for cheering them on. Although Matsumura was relatively weak and finished last in the hill climbing event, Ito and Saito were very good and finished first and second in their respective events.
In the end, the three teams had the same score, with Mai Shiraishi coming in last.
Among the three teams with priority, Sakurai Reika's team chose to pick strawberries to make jam, and Ikoma Rina's team chose to make buns.
"How about choosing to catch fish?" Amamiya Shiori suggested.
From the perspective of protein intake, of the remaining two options, fish is obviously better. Milking cows to make fresh cheese doesn't produce much finished product, but the fish is more solid.
"Yes, catching fish looks great!" Mai Shiraishi immediately agreed.
It was obvious that she didn't want to catch fish. She could tell at a glance that this was the most troublesome job. Who knew if the fish here would be difficult to catch? If the staff gave them each a fishing rod, how long would it take to catch them? .
Since the choice is in Matsumura's hands, it is best to let Matsumura take the initiative to choose to catch fish.
So Shiraishi Mai turned her head and gave her team members a look, and Takayama and others who understood it also started to agree. "Indeed, catching fish looks pretty good."
"Well, catching fish is indeed very good!" Matsumura was not stupid, and he followed them and repeated the lesson hypocritically.
"Then - let's milk the cows and make cheese!" Matsumura deliberately chose to make cheese, and the disappointed Shiraishi team could only catch fish honestly.
"Actually, I really think catching fish is quite good." On the way to the pasture to milk the cows, Amamiya Shiori lamented, "If the fish is small, it can be grilled or fried, and if the fish has more meat and fewer spines, it can be cooked in water." You can cook fish and stew fish soup..."
However, Matsumura deliberately set up Shiraishi for the sake of the show's effect.
"Gudu~" Sayuri Matsumura swallowed when he heard this and began to regret it.
The camp staff led a cow to the pasture and placed a bucket to collect milk under the cow.
"Who comes first?" he asked the four of them after demonstrating how to milk the cows correctly.
"Hi!" Sayuri Matsumura volunteered.
"Hold the roots, be gentle, and then use a little pressure."
Under the guidance of the staff, Sayuri Matsumura squatted down and started trying.
"One, two, three, ah -" As soon as he squeezed out a little, Sayuri Matsumura looked back at the people behind him and clapped happily, as if he had accomplished something.
"Clamp, one, two, three, ah, so powerful!" Sayuri Matsumura tried a few more times, "It feels so soft~"
"Ah, so awesome, so awesome~" Marihua Ito kept praising her while milking.
"This is a bit bad~ It's too bad~" Saito Yuri, whose head was easily distorted, covered his mouth and snickered.
It was also the first time for Amamiya Shiori to milk a cow. After using it twice, she gradually became familiar with it.
The bubbling liquid is injected into the bucket, and the liquid level gradually rises.
"How much milk can a cow be milked at one time under normal circumstances?" Amamiya Soi asked the staff, moving her hands constantly.
"About 30 kilograms a day, squeezed every 8 hours, which is equivalent to 10 kilograms each time."
"So much!" Matsumura Sayuri exclaimed. With their squeezing method of a few milliliters at a time, their hands were so tired that they couldn't squeeze enough into the bucket.
"Usually we squeeze in faster," the staff squatted down to demonstrate, and Amamiya Shiori moved away. "Two hands work together, like this."
Under his skillful operation, white liquid like a hose leaking out alternately.
"It's amazing~" the girls praised.
"It's actually very simple. Once you become proficient, you'll get better at it quickly."
"Then let's try it too!"
So the girls one by one tried to squeeze with both hands.
"Yeah~" "It's soft and quite warm~" "Teeth white~ super white~"
"A little bit, it's a bit too much." After the girls had finished playing, the staff said looking at the small half bucket of milk, which was more than the amount needed to make cheese.
Amamiya Suga suddenly had an idea. It would be boring to just make some cheese and spread it on biscuits. If you want to make it, make it big.
"Um, can you help me squeeze in a little more?" Amamiya Sori asked sheepishly.
"Isn't this enough?"
"Squeeze a little more, just a little." Amamiya Shiori winked. Although Matsumura and others didn't understand Amamiya's intention, they immediately cooperated.
"Please, just a little." Sayuri Matsumura looked at the milker with pretended pitiful eyes.
"Are you going to use it for something? Or do you want to drink milk?" The staff was a little confused.
"Actually, we want to do some cooking and we need to use more milk." Amamiya Shiori explained.
"Oh, that's it. How many do you need?"
"Hmm...how about half a barrel?" Amamiya asked in a tentative tone.
"No problem!" the staff readily agreed.
"Isn't it...a bit too much?"
"Don't worry, I milk four or five cows a day, and a whole bucket only weighs less than five kilograms, which is not much at all."
The staff are very generous.
So with his help, Amamiya and others harvested an extra large bucket of milk, and only a small part of it was consumed in making cheese.
"Can I drink it directly?" Sayuri Matsumura was eating biscuits spread with cheese, looking at the milky white liquid in the bucket, eager to try.
"Of course not." Amamiya Shiori opened her head, "It hasn't been disinfected yet!"
"Oh!" Sayuri Matsumura nodded honestly.
"By the way, what are you going to do, Xiaozhi?" Ito Wanlihua asked curiously. She didn't know what else to do with so much milk besides drinking it.
"Humph~" Amamiya Sōri smiled proudly, "You'll know in a minute!"
The teams collecting ingredients returned to the starting point one after another.
"Hey~ what are you doing? Noodles?" Amamiya Shiori and Matsumura Sayuri were carrying buckets together. As soon as they returned to the starting point, they saw that the Ikoma team had completed their mission.
"It's not noodles, it's steamed buns!" Ikoma Rina held a long rolling pin in her hand to correct their mistakes. "There is no such thick noodles."
Looking at the neatly cut long strips of dough on the table, Amamiya Sugawara felt that it might be more appropriate to compare the work of the Ikoma team to fried dough sticks that have not yet been cooked.
