Chapter 456: Chapter 456: It’s Not Too Much to Ask for a Game Console, Right?
There was no choice but to follow through with the rules she’d set, even if it meant shedding tears.
Zheng Xun scowled as he and the staff counted the "trash" Jiang Li had collected and realized it could be exchanged for nearly 500 points, which darkened his expression further.
He forcefully stabbed the screen to credit Jiang Li’s account with 498 points.
The assistant beside him showed a sympathetic expression.
"Director, don’t be so forceful—"
Zheng Xun huffed coldly, "It’s fine, my hand doesn’t hurt."
"No, I mean if you break the screen, it won’t be easy to find someone to fix it out here in the wilderness."
Zheng Xun: "...."
Get lost!
Everyone, just get lost!
Soon, Jiang Li’s personal points swelled from 0 to 498.
Fearing being targeted, each team’s points were distributed fairly evenly and not concentrated on any one person.
Even Ji Yanbai, who ranked first, only had a little more than 600 points.
Jiang Li’s maneuver shot her up from last place to fifth place.
All guests were dumbfounded upon receiving this news.
What was this?
Silent until a sensational breakthrough?
As everyone was analyzing how Jiang Li had managed to obtain so many points overnight, Zheng Xun, who had just finished scolding someone, immediately received another phone call.
Seeing the nickname on the caller ID, his vision grew even darker.
Though he was only in his thirties, in the prime of his life, he felt he had developed high blood pressure not even a week into the shooting of the second season of Wilderness Survival.
After supporting himself against a nearby railing, Zheng Xun answered the call.
"Hello... Jiang Li..."
[Hahahaha, King Zheng sounds so lethargic.]
[Hahaha, Sister Li really knows how to handle those who don’t respect her.]
Jiang Li, smiling cheerfully, said, "Hello, Director Zheng, I received the points. I’d like to exchange them for some items now."
Zheng Xun: "....." freeωebnovēl.c૦m
He just knew it!
He knew Jiang Li was sent by the heavens to torment him!
Maintaining professional decorum, Zheng Xun still managed a strained smile, "Tell me, what do you want to exchange for this time?"
Fortunately, he had prepared in advance by sending a staff member to stake out the city library, ready to procure any bizarre book she might request!
Jiang Li held a watch and turned to look at the three people playing rock-paper-scissors on a rock.
"Hey, do you guys want anything? I have over 400 points here."
Hearing this, Jiang Yan’s eyes lit up immediately, "Can I ask for anything?"
"Yes."
Yu Li spoke thoughtfully, "Maybe we should save the points for emergencies."
"No need," said Jiang Li. "It’s best to spend all the points before we leave."
This confused the three, and Shang Shuyue frowned, "Isn’t that a bit reckless for a team leader, Jiang Li? How can we win with such reckless spending?"
Jiang Li arched an eyebrow, "So, you want to give your disposable points to someone else?"
Shang Shuyue: "......"
Forget she said anything.
But her fighting spirit was ignited, and she stood up with her chin lifted.
"You’re sure I can exchange it for anything?"
"Certain."
"No regrets?"
"No regrets."
Shang Shuyue sneered, "Well then, it’s so boring on this island, it wouldn’t be too much to ask for a gaming console to pass the time, right?"
[?]
[Is she serious?]
"Anyone with eyes can tell that Lady Shang is trying to scare Jiang Li off,"
However, to everyone’s surprise, Jiang Li was not angry at all but instead nodded calmly, "Okay."
Then she turned to look at Yu Li.
"You?"
Yu Li totally thought Jiang Li was joking and laughed, "Lady Shang wants a gaming console, and as a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner, it wouldn’t be too much to ask for a set of silver needles, right?"
"??"
"What the heck, what does this have to do with survival?"
Just when they thought Jiang Li was about to get angry, Jiang Yan leaped to his feet.
"I, I, I, I want three sets of spare clothes, two bottles of sunscreen, and an umbrella... just these for now."
Listening to Jiang Yan list everything as if he was ordering dishes from a menu, Yu Li and Shang Shuyue were utterly dumbfounded.
Damn.
It seemed they had been too conservative.
However, what shocked them even more was yet to come.
Jiang Li nodded emotionlessly and then released the hand pressing on her watch.
"Director Zheng, we’ve decided what we want to exchange—"
Zheng Xun: "Hmm, go on."
"Could you get me a geographical atlas..."
Zheng Xun sneered, he knew it!
"What else?" His lips curled up slightly.
"A gaming console, a set of silver needles, three sets of XXL men’s spare clothes, two bottles of sunscreen, and an umbrella..."
Zheng Xun: ??????
"What?" He shifted his phone a bit, worried he had misheard, "What else did you say you wanted to exchange?"
Jiang Li had to repeat herself again.
"...Director Zheng, if you still haven’t heard clearly, I suggest you go to the hospital and get your ENT checked."
Zheng Xun: "....."
Are these things really related to survival?
What on earth does Jiang Li think this program is about?!
But on second thoughts, Zheng Xun swallowed back his words of caution.
After all, the more difficulties Jiang Li faced, the more he stood to benefit, so why should he play the good guy?
So Zheng Xun smiled slightly, "Alright, it will be delivered to your address in half an hour."
Jiang Li hung up the phone, turned around, and found Yu Li and Shang Shuyue looking at her with expressions questioning their life choices.
"What’s wrong?" Jiang Li wiped her watch, "Want anything else? Maybe next time, we just used up all our points."
"No," Shang Shuyue was somewhat exasperated, "You spent such precious points on these?!"
Jiang Li replied indifferently, "Compared to those trivial material things, I care more about the mental state of the team members."
That was the biggest challenge of surviving on the deserted island.
In this era, nearly everyone is overwhelmed by material needs, leaving little for spiritual needs and cultivation.
On this deserted island with nothing, it’s easy to hit rock bottom and explode.
She had watched the first season’s recordings, and by the last days of survival, many had mentally collapsed due to the monotonous environment and eventually quit the competition.
Ensuring the normal mental state of the entire team by satisfying some of their entertainment needs was quite important.
Shang Shuyue couldn’t understand.
But the moment the staff handed her the gaming console,
She began to understand.
Wasn’t this more fun than playing rock-paper-scissors?!
Yu Li, who received the silver needles, was also delighted and eagerly approached Jiang Yan.
"Jiang Yan, how about I give you a few acupuncture points?"
Jiang Yan raised an eyebrow skeptically, "You won’t mess me up, will you?"
Yu Li smiled, "Of course not, acupuncture can not only improve circulation and remove blood stasis but also make one’s skin better."
Jiang Yan became instantly interested, rolling up his sleeves, "Come on, go ahead, do plenty."
