883 Fighting Over Resources
Li Jiani didn’t say anything, because this made sense.
What Zhao Yinian said was logical.
It was an undeniable fact that the rich in this world occupied more and better resources.
Just like they did with women.
Rich people could eat, drink, and have fun with different women 365 days a year.
However, the poor might not be able to meet a single woman in a year.
Such was the food chain of human society.
“Moreover, I think you don’t have to be too nervous. Although this place is quite scary, as long as you’re careful and act according to the production team’s instructions, your lives won’t be in danger. After all, this is only a reality show.”
Lin Yi looked at Zhao Yinian and felt that this girl had some merits.
At the very least, not many people held this kind of worldview. This might have something to do with her many years in the entertainment industry.
After all, it was an industry with a strict hierarchy, just like the food chain in this jungle.
After Lin Yi finished talking to Zhao Yinian, Li Jiajia and Huang Yun didn’t say anything else. They followed behind Lin Yi very seriously.
However, Li Jiani shook her head secretly and cursed in her heart.
“Of course I know such a simple logic, but there might be other unexpected situations on this island that ordinary people like you can’t understand!”
For most of the day, the four of them and the cameraman could be said to be unimpeded and did not encounter any danger.
If not for Zhao Yinian’s stamina, they might have advanced even faster.
Without any warning, Lin Yi stopped in his tracks because he heard a rustling sound around him.
Li Jiani and Huang Yunhang became nervous, afraid that something unforeseen would happen.
A few seconds later, four people emerged from the bushes at the side.
“Li Chenxing, you’re here!” Zhao Yinian said.
In the entertainment industry, Zhao Yinian’s reputation was incomparable to Li Chenxing’s.
In this strictly hierarchical industry, they had to greet each other when they met.
“This is quite a coincidence,” Li Chenxing said with a smile. “We could even meet in such a big place.”
“I know right?” Zhao Yinian said casually.
She originally wanted to invite Li Chenxing to join them, but she was just a nobody in this team. If something went wrong, she still had to rely on him to protect her. She had no right to make this suggestion, so she gave up.
“We’ll leave first,” Lin Yi said casually. He had no intention of chatting with these people.
Li Jiani and Huang Yunhang did the same.
Their team composition was already complete enough. There was no need to add anyone else.
Even if the other three had some ability, having a young hunk by their side would definitely affect their progress.
“Mr. Lin, don’t leave yet,” Niu Dongliang called out from behind.
“What, do you need me for something?” Lin Yi turned around.
“I have something to discuss with you.” Niu Dongliang said, “We don’t have enough supplies. There are two girls in your team. Can you give us some?”
Niu Dongliang was instructed to say this by Li Chenxing.
Because he was a celebrity and had a cameraman following him, he had to be mindful of his words and actions.
When the time came to snatch the resources, it would also be Niu Dongliang and the others’ responsibility. He would have nothing to do with it.
“Huh? Don’t you think before you speak?” Lin Yi said.
“The four of you look like idiots to me. You can just take the first boat home. You won’t need your supplies at all, so can you share your things with us instead?”
The cameraman behind Lin Yi was shocked and cursed in his heart.
“Little emperor, we’re recording a program here. How are we supposed to broadcast it when you’re spouting so much nonsense?”
“What do you mean? We were here to discuss something with you. Why are you scolding us?”
“It’s already a light punishment to scold you.” Lin Yi waved his hand impatiently. “Get lost and go as far as you can. Don’t be an eyesore here.”
“But I don’t want you to leave unless you leave the supplies behind,” Niu Dongliang said.
Lin Yi smiled. “Then you’re being too wishful.”
Hearing Lin Yi’s words, Niu Dongliang and the other two were not angry. Instead, they laughed.
“Mr. Lin, there’s something you might be mistaken about.” Niu Dongliang said.
“Although this is a television program, the initial agreement also stated that it would replicate the authenticity of genuine wilderness survival. Therefore, snatching resources is also one of the traits of this program. We are not doing anything too unreasonable.”
The cameraman standing behind everyone was also a little surprised.
Previously, during the meeting, the production team had also expected such a thing to happen.
They did not encourage it on the surface, and they even secretly supported it.
However, they had only expected such a thing to happen in the middle and later stages of the program. They did not expect such a thing to happen at the beginning. These people were too rash.
“That’s great.” Lin Yi said.
“You guys have provided me with ideas. If I snatch your things, I won’t have to worry about supplies for the next half a month.”
“Haha…” Niu Dongliang said, “It just so happens that we have four people on both sides. Let’s see who this batch of supplies will go to.”
“I couldn’t ask for more.”
“Hey, everyone, are you going to fight so soon? Fortunately, we made it in time.”
Just as both sides were about to attack, another group of people walked out of the bushes.
Lin Yi looked to the side and realized that the person who spoke was a foreigner. Behind him were three companions.
Seeing the people coming over, Niu Dongliang and the other three became nervous.
In such a place, even the people in his own team could not be completely trusted. Now that four foreigners had appeared, he had to be more careful.
“Everyone, don’t be nervous.” The kead foreigner said in broken Huaxian,
“Let me introduce myself first. My name is Clark. My team is in dire need of resources, so I’m here to collect some. I hope you can cooperate.”
“You’re dreaming!” Niu Dongliang said.
“Don’t be so aggitated,” Clark said teasingly.
“If you can’t make it to the end, you’ll back out anyway. So, why don’t you give us the supplies? After we get first place, we might even give you some benefits. So hand over the things. We’re still waiting to continue traveling.”
Niu Dongliang, Meng Chi, and Qu Xingnian got into position one after another, ready to beat up Clark and the others before dealing with Lin Yi.
“That is a mixed martial arts stance!”
“That’s right, you have some good eyesight!”
Seeing that Niu Dongliang and the other two were experts, Clark and the others stopped in time.
He was very clear about the situation. If they really fought, he would not be able to gain anything.
“We don’t want to take unnecessary risks, so we’re not going to fight you.” Clark then looked at Lin Yi.
“Why don’t we deal with them together and split their resources?”
