"What did Old Chen just say?"
"Make use of the materials here?"
"Make a bamboo basket?"
"My husband is actually a craftsman?"
"Wuwuwu, I really don't know my husband at all."
"Did Old Chen really say that? You can make this thing?"
"Although Old Chen looks confident, I really don't believe it. Does Old Chen dare to keep betting?"
"Old Chen, are you going to bet or not? I can't enjoy myself today unless I see you and Big Black dancing!"
Chen Yang said, "Let's not bet, I'm really afraid you'll end up losing even your underwear."
[Drunk lying across the World]: "A little money isn't much."
"Whoa, Drunk Drunk Boss!"
"Looked it up, it's really Drunk Drunk Boss himself!"
"Isn't Drunk Boss usually just watching games? Why is he here?"
[Drunk lying across the world]: "What's so good about games? Men should play with mud!"
"666!"
"I can't refute that."
"I don't even deserve to understand the thoughts of a big shot like him."
Chen Yang was also helpless, but he just smiled and agreed. He now had the skill of a[Folk Artisan], so weaving a bamboo basket was as easy as eating or drinking, ingrained deep into his bones.
"There are a lot of bamboo shoots here, even making a bamboo basket might not be enough to hold them."
"Big Black, go home and bring me a bag, it's in the kitchen."
Chen Yang said to Big Black.
Before the viewers had a chance to comment, they saw Big Black nodding, then twist its body and quickly darting into the forest.
The crowd stared in disbelief.
"Although we know Big Black is smart, for it to understand even this kind of instruction is too impressive!"
"I think you guys are overthinking it. Big Black probably just found a shady spot to relax."
"My dog wouldn't even understand something this complicated."
"If your dog could understand, that would be strange…"
"Can Big Black really bring the bag back?"
"I'm skeptical."
Chen Yang didn't respond. He and Big Black had built up a solid friendship, and once Big Black returned with the bag, everyone would see whether it really understood or not.
He walked up to a bamboo and gently tapped it with his finger, saying, "This one should do."
Then, he used a hoe to cut it down.
To make a bamboo basket, the first step was to split the bamboo into strips. He only had a hoe in hand, but for him, it was more than enough. He first cut the bamboo into sections, about one meter long. Then, he gripped the blunt hoe in his right hand and held the cut bamboo joints in his left.
"I think it might take a whole day to make a bamboo basket."
"The process is so slow, and you don't even have a proper knife."
"I'm falling asleep just watching this."
Seeing that they were getting bored, Chen Yang smiled and said, "How about this, I'll speed up a bit, hmm… let's see if I can finish the bamboo basket before Old Black gets back."
"Really? Old Chen, don't talk big."
"Just take it slow, no one really expects you to make one."
"My mom says you shouldn't lie or boast."
"Old Chen, let's take it step by step. Don't set yourself up for failure, or your character will collapse."
"Character? What character does Old Chen even have?"
"To be fair, you can weave it slowly, but if you say you'll do it and don't, it's really not good."
Despite the doubts, Chen Yang just said one thing:
"Just wait and see."
After saying that, he wedged the hoe between his legs and held the bamboo in both hands. With a quick tap of the hoe, the bamboo split cleanly in half.
Next, he repeated the same motion continuously.
In less than a minute, one section of bamboo was successfully split into several dozen strips.
Without pausing, he grabbed the second bamboo section and continued.
The viewers' eyes widened.
"Holy crap, what speed is this?"
"Damn, that's fast!"
"He's doing it so quickly without a knife?"
"This bamboo… so smooth?"
"Chen Yang, are you cheating?"
"Damn, my eyes can't even keep up with him."
In just five minutes, one bamboo was split into several dozen strips, all neatly stacked at his feet.
"What just happened in the last few minutes?"
"Totally confused!"
"Same here, totally confused!"
"Science has proven that single dogs have enviable hand speed."
"There's nothing a single dog can't do (lol)."
"Drunk Drunk Boss, get ready for the rockets. After seeing Chen Yang's skill, even if he said he could build an aircraft carrier, I'd believe it."
Chen Yang grabbed two bamboo strips and said, "Making a bamboo basket is actually a pretty complicated process. Splitting the bamboo, roasting, removing the knots, layering, coloring, scraping smooth, et cetera…"
"There are easily over a dozen steps if you go into detail."
"But for others, maybe. For me, it's quite simple."
"First, we start with the base, like this."
While speaking, he began weaving the base.
In just a few moves, he finished the bottom of the basket with just two strips of bamboo. He held the base up for the camera: "Look, isn't it simple?"
The viewers were stunned.
"You call this simple?"
"Chen Yang's definition of simple…"
"We're not the same! Everyone has different hands!"
Chen Yang continued, "With the base done, now comes the rest of the weaving."
"To make a bamboo basket, there are basically three main steps: making the base, weaving, and locking the mouth."
"I'm using the simplest warp and weft weaving method. Of course, if I had more time, I could make patterns."
As he spoke, his hands never stopped. Before long, the general shape of the bamboo basket had formed in his hands.
The viewers were completely stunned.
Then, Chen Yang began the final step, locking the mouth.
Two minutes later, a completed bamboo basket appeared in his hands.
"All done, here's the bamboo basket."
"It's no different from the ones sold in stores, but if we're talking durability, the store-bought ones will last longer because these bamboo strips haven't been roasted or smoothed, so they're more brittle and can break easily."
"But for ten days to half a month, it'll be good enough."
Chen Yang looked at his phone to check the time, then glanced down the mountain: "Big Black still hasn't come back. I guess this is my boastful claim finished, huh?"
"Yeah, it definitely counts!"
"I saw my grandfather weave bamboo baskets before, and it took him at least an hour, non-stop…"
"If it weren't for the live stream, I would've thought I was watching fast-forward."
"Sadly, I'm uneducated, but one move from Chen Yang is enough to blow everyone away!"
"Same here."
"Same here."
"Same here."
[Drunk lying across the world]sent a 10-rocket tip and commented: "Chen Yang, keep it up! I've never seen a live stream like this, brasting from the countryside. At first, it seemed boring, but after watching for a while, it really relaxes you. I hope you keep going!"
"Drunk Drunk Boss is right, Old Chen, you should keep going!"
"I just checked, there are 70,000 people online, and you're ranked 169th across the entire platform!"
"Isn't this only your second day of streaming? This is pretty crazy."
"This is impressive. Even though the content might seem simple (covering face), once you watch for ten minutes, you can't stop."
"Wuwuwu~ That's how I got hooked."
"I'll be here to support you every day, Old Chen. Keep going!"
Seeing all the support from the viewers, Chen Yang felt a little moved.
Just as[Drunk lying across the world]said, his stream was basically showing the daily life in the countryside.
In just two days, he had reached this level of success. It wasn't just because he was good-looking, but also thanks to Big Black's appearance. Chen Yang still didn't know that the video of him talking to Big Black had gone viral.
"Thank you all for your support. I won't say the usual things, what I can do is just show you the beautiful sights of the countryside."
"Ah, Big Black's back."
Big Black appeared from the forest, holding a large urea bag in its mouth.
When the viewers saw this, they were completely stunned.
This… Big Black really understood what Chen Yang said?
