Chapter 22: This Is Professionalism
Su Yu finally knew what was happening after checking the bullet comments.
Someone had taken his stream and uploaded it to the other video-streaming sites as a compilation video.
Consequently, his video went viral overnight, hence the increased number of viewers. It had only been 10 minutes and Su Yu’s stream popularity had already reached 500,000!
The surge of viewers was terrifying, to say the least.
“Hello, new viewers. Let me reintroduce myself. I’m Su Yu, an outdoor streamer. I’m streaming my daily life in my rural hometown. If you like my content, you can follow me. I’ll stream at 8:00 a.m. every morning.”
“Master Su, skip the introduction! We all know who you are!”
“Yeah! I came from Tiktok. I’ve already seen your introduction more than a dozen times.”
“Master Su, show us the wild boar! I regret not joining the stream yesterday!”
Su Yu saw the bullet comments. He then turned his camera to what the viewers requested.
The wild boar was lying in Su Yu’s yard. The massive size of the wild boar proved to be astonishing in the viewers’ eyes, but it was much more impactful in real life.
“Holy sh*t! Holy sh*t! It really is a wild boar! This is madness!”
“This wild boar is huge! I think it’s at least 180 kg! I can’t imagine how you did it!”
“Su Yu, are you going to cut the wild boar up today? Can you send me a piece of its meat? I’ll bear the postage fees!”
“Stop dreaming! Do you have any idea how much pork is selling for right now? 500 grams of livestock pork is already selling for more than 30 RMB, let alone wild boar meat! It can even go up to more than 60 RMB!”
“Really? More than 60 RMB for 500 grams? Who could afford that?!”
Su Yu smiled. ” Okay, guys. I alone can’t finish the wild boar as well, so I’ll do a lucky draw later and send some of the meat out. I’ll have my breakfast first, and we will continue dealing with the wild boar later.”
Su Yu then went to the kitchen for his breakfast.
He still had porridge for breakfast, but now, there was an extra mouth in the house.
The dog that he rescued yesterday did not want to leave. Even when he opened the gate, the dog stayed and even tried to get close to Su Yu, hence he had no choice but to keep the dog.
While preparing breakfast, the dog and Little White worked together to help Su Yu. They added firewood to the stove and kept the fire burning. Their teamwork made a beautiful scene.
“Wow! What a cute scene! Master Su’s family is so close together!”
“It seems like the dog is recovering well! It’s getting along with Little White! Su Yu, why don’t you give it a name?”
Su Yu noticed the comment. “A name? Hmm, let’s just go with Big Yellow.”
“You are really bad at naming!”
“Yup. That sounds like a name for a dog in a rural village.”
“I dare you to name the dog worse than you’ve already done!”
“It’s so lame! Little White, Big Yellow? Can you be a little more Western?”
Su Yu found their comments confusing. “Big Yellow is lame? I think it’s a good name. If you want it to be more Westernized, then why don’t I name it Nicholas Yellow?”
“Hahahaha! Holy hell! Nicholas Yellow!”
“2333[1]! ROFL!”
“Dude! You are so funny! I just can’t! Followed!”
While Su Yu chatted with his viewers, Big Yellow and Little White had finished cooking breakfast.
Since Little White was no ordinary snake, its breakfast would not be just mere porridge. Su Yu added ginseng into Little White’s bowl. After some thought, he also did the same with Big Yellow’s bowl.
As for why Big Yellow got some ginseng for breakfast, the fellow had been hurt by a tiger yesterday and needed some supplement to speed up its recovery.
The viewers were once again surprised when they saw Su Yu put the ginseng into the pot of porridge.
“Sh*t! Here it is! Here it is! Master Su is showing off again!”
“Twice in a row!”
“Is this the wild ginseng you got yesterday? And you fed it to the dog? Please accept my sincere kneeling!”
“After watching Master Su’s stream, I realize that a dog has got a better life than me. Do you still need a pet? I’ll deliver myself to you!”
“Me too! If wild ginseng is what we eat every day, I’ll be more than happy to be a dog!”
[Jun Moxiao sent you 10 Super Rockets]
Jun Moxiao said, “Bro, I understand you can get wild ginseng in the mountains but you shouldn’t use them like that! Sell them to me instead!”
[Promise sent you 10 Super Rockets]
Promise said, “Me too! It’s difficult to find wild ginseng now! Sell me some of it as well. It’s genuine ginseng after all!”
[Nightwing sent you 5 Super Rockets]
Nightwing said, “If you have some left, sell them to me as well. I can give it to my seniors during Chinese New Year.”
Su Yu said, “You guys want some of the wild ginseng? Sure. I thought no one would want them. You guys should’ve told me earlier. I’ll PM you guys my WeChat later, and we’ll discuss further there.”
“Okay! I was busy yesterday and forgot to add you on WeChat, but I’ll add you later,” Jun Moxiao said.
Both Promise and Nightwing agreed as well.
Su Yu chatted with Jun Moxiao and those who had sent him gifts for a while eating breakfast.
Both Little White and Big Yellow enjoyed their breakfast as well since they had ginseng in their bowls. The two of them slurped their porridge happily and quickly.
Su Yu then went next door to ask Uncle Zhang to help him with the wild boar today.
When he arrived at Uncle Zhang’s gate, the older man had already gotten prepared with leather gloves, a leather apron, a cleaver, an iron hook, and all the necessary tools.
Uncle Zhang had once learned how to slaughter pigs from a master when he was young, hence he had the complete set of tools.
Tacitly, he got up and followed Su Yu after grabbing his tools.
“That’s what I call professional! Look at that, guys!”
“Uncle Zhang is the boss! He’s silent but swift!”
“OMG! He’s a pro! Uncle Zhang is a pro butcher!”
“Uncle Zhang: Death arrives like the wind, and it circles around me!”
“Uncle Zhang is like an old Yasuo, killing pigs online.”
“2333[2]! Gosh! There are so many jokers here!”
Uncle Zhang had no idea that the viewers on Su Yu’s stream were making a parody out of his appearance.
When they returned to Su Yu’s yard, Uncle Zhang told Su Yu to prepare a pail of hot water for the wild boar’s hair. Since wild boars had tough hair, the hair must be softened with hot water before removing it manually.
Su Yu nodded and went ahead to prepare the water. He brought a large pot out to the yard and then filled it with water.
After starting the fire, Su Yu tasked Little White and Big Yellow to guard the fire. The duo had officially become his firekeepers and they were excellent at their job.
While waiting for the water to boil, Uncle Zhang went on to butcher the wild boar.
Under normal circumstances, it would require several young and strong men to butcher a wild boar that big. After all, a live wild boar was strong, and it would take more than just a few young men to hold it down.
However, the wild boar was dead, so Su Yu and Uncle Zhang would more than suffice.
Uncle Zhang wanted to truss the boar up, but when he tried to move it, it did not even budge.
Su Yu noticed him struggling and went over to offer a hand. “Uncle Zhang, let me.”
