Liang Fei grabbed the phone beside him and directly called Chu Chu from the operations department.
In fact, what he was doing was somewhat beyond his authority.
Normally, this data would be compiled by the leaders of the tech department at the end of the month and then handed over to the operations department for distribution.
However, every employee in the operations department has their own performance targets. Their salary is directly tied to the performance of the streamers they sign. If they can sign a promising new streamer, or even cultivate someone to the level of a top-tier streamer, both the streamer and the operations employee would reap the rewards.
Because of this, it's common for employees from the operations department to make private connections with those in the tech department. This has become an unspoken rule. The tech department provides convenience, and in return, the operations department may offer red envelopes or other benefits.
"Hello, Chu Chu, is it a good time for you to take a call?" Liang Fei asked.
"Sure, what's up?" Chu Chu replied.
"There's a new streamer, and the data is fantastic. Get him signed as soon as possible, don't let others steal him away," Liang Fei urged.
"Just how good is 'fantastic'?" Chu Chu asked.
"Out of this world!" Liang Fei said. "I'm betting this streamer will become the most popular one under your wing!"
"Really that impressive?" Chu Chu was shocked. "Fly Brother, tell me the livestream link. I'll check it out right now."
Liang Fei provided the livestream link and said, "Chu Chu, seize this opportunity. I can only help you this much."
"Don't worry, I'll definitely sign him!" Chu Chu said confidently.
The reason Liang Fei was helping Chu Chu so much was that they were not only schoolmates but also fellow villagers. These two connections made their relationship special, unlike the usual professional connections.
Chu Chu hung up the phone and walked quickly from the restroom to her desk. She immediately found Chen Yang's livestream.
"Chen Yang's Leisurely Life?"
"What… what type of livestream is this? It's quite novel, but… it doesn't seem that appealing."
"Wait, how many viewers are online? 330,000!"
When she saw the online viewership, she was shocked.
Although this was still a long way from the numbers of a truly popular streamer, she noticed that this livestream had only started the day before. In other words, it had only been two days since the start of the stream, and it already had such impressive numbers.
No wonder Liang Fei said it was "out of this world." This truly was extraordinary.
If she had discovered this herself, she might have suspected that the data had been inflated. But since Liang Fei told her, she knew the numbers were real.
Without hesitation, she immediately sent a private message to Chen Yang's backend.
She then began watching the livestream, eager to understand what made this type of livestream so attractive to so many people.
What caught her attention was that the top donor on the livestream's reward leaderboard had contributed 3.9 million Feiyu Coins! That's 39,000 Chinese Yuan!
There were several others who had donated one to two million Feiyu Coins as well. She recognized some of the usernames, so she knew this wasn't inflated data.
"Hmm, I found something good."
Chen Yang suddenly stopped in his tracks, looking at a spot three meters to his right.
The camera followed his movements.
"Isn't this just some weeds?"
"Uh-oh, now I see weeds everywhere."
"Master Chen, what's this?"
The viewers couldn't tell the difference between the green leaves in front of them and regular weeds.
Chen Yang pointed at the plants and said, "This is kudzu root."
"I'll clear away the grass, and you'll see that the kudzu root has already started to show above the ground."
As he brushed the grass aside, the viewers saw a few yellow-brown root-like structures entangled with one another.
"I know this! My mom loves buying kudzu powder to drink."
"Last time I went to Jiuhua Mountain, I bought a lot of it. They said it was wild, but I'm not sure if it's true."
When kudzu root was mentioned, many viewers recognized it.
Chen Yang explained, "Kudzu root is also a medicinal herb. Although it's not as valuable as wild ginseng, it has great medicinal effects."
"This stuff, when dried and sliced, can be used to make tea to clear heat."
"For people with weak digestive systems, drinking it regularly can be helpful."
"However, most of the kudzu root on the market is artificially grown. If you want to buy the authentic kind, you should get it from the countryside."
"In rural areas, most people go up to the mountains to dig it up around New Year's. It's the real deal, and it's not expensive."
"I won't dig this one up since it's too big. I estimate it could weigh two to three hundred kilograms, and kudzu root grows deep underground, so my cowhorn hoe won't be able to reach it."
"Also, the best time to dig for kudzu root has already passed."
"The best time is between December and February when the plant is dormant, and the effective components are at their peak. This is when the quality is the best."
Chen Yang stood up and continued walking up the mountain.
"I'm truly amazed. Master Chen knows so much!"
"This is seriously impressive, he can talk so confidently about any herb."
"Honestly, if you gave me the Compendium of Materia Medica, I could never speak as fluently as Master Chen."
"I just want to know, Master Chen, how do you know so much?"
Chen Yang hadn't expected that just casually mentioning something would cause such a reaction from the viewers.
He chuckled and said, "I don't actually know that much, and all of this is just common knowledge."
"Common knowledge? Sorry, I'm not fit to be human."
"'Common knowledge'… Master Chen, do you have a different understanding of this term?"
"It's all common knowledge, Master Chen!"
"Same grade for nine years, what's your talent, huh?"
As Chen Yang walked, he suddenly stopped again.
"Huh, look what I found this time?"
He brushed aside the weeds, revealing a patch of vibrant green leaves.
"It's actually a He Shou Wu."
He crouched down and plucked a leaf, saying, "Look, the leaves of He Shou Wu are easy to identify, they're shaped like hearts. Also, the rhizomes are short."
"Uh… is this also common knowledge?"
Chen Yang wasn't afraid of irritating the viewers and casually said.
The viewers were on the verge of losing it.
"Master Chen, if you say 'common knowledge' one more time, I'll… I'll go study medicine!"
"What kind of fairy mountain is this? Kudzu root, He Shou Wu, all popping up like that."
"These medicinal herbs are actually pretty common, and the Southern Mountain's natural resources are really abundant. It's not surprising to find these herbs."
[Xiao Dong]: "I think Master Chen must have studied medicine. Unless someone grew up in a pharmacy like me, there's no way they'd know this much."
[Drunk lying across the world]: "Master Chen, just dig this one up. Don't leave it."
Chen Yang observed the plant for a few seconds and said, "This He Shou Wu is quite large."
"He Shou Wu has great medicinal effects. I don't know if you've heard of some legends about it."
"Back in the old days, there was a man who took He Shou Wu, and his gray hair turned black, making him look younger. That's why, for a long time, He Shou Wu was considered a longevity elixir."
"However, in reality, He Shou Wu does have the effect of darkening hair and resisting aging, but it's not as exaggerated as the legends say."
"This one's quite large. Since I've found it, I certainly won't let it go."
"Big Black, Little White!"
Chen Yang suddenly called out.
The black and white animals looked at him.
Chen Yang said, "Keep an eye out for me. I'm going to dig up this He Shou Wu!"
