Chapter 28
Teamwork
Director Han continued to announce the next mission. “Dear guests, in a bit, your mission is to enter the forest and use your hardworking hands to obtain the gifts of nature. Tonight’s dinner ingredients will be all the plants and animals of the forest. You will have three hours. The production team has prepared some tools for everyone. Each group can only take one. Everyone, it’s time to draw lots, which will decide the order you get to choose your tool. Let’s begin now!”
Bai Ling asked in confusion, “Director, if only this mission involves tonight’s ingredients, then what’s the use of the seafood just now?”
Director Han smiled calmly. “It’s a secret for now. Please proceed.”
Seeing that Director Han was keeping them in suspense, everyone knew that they would not be able to get anything out of him, so they began to draw lots. Tan Ming was unlucky to draw the last place, and the first place was drawn by Yuan Jing. Everyone went to the place where the tools were placed to choose.
The so-called capture tools were all very simple. There was a net that was two meters long and wide, a slingshot, a hoe, a small beast trap, and a large portion of bait.
Yuan Jing chose the simple trap. Bai Ling, who was second, was not confident that she could hit her prey with a slingshot. After hesitating, she chose the net. Tan Si, on the other hand, chose the slingshot without hesitation. The host and his wife chose food, and the hoe automatically went to Jiang Huai’s team.
Tan Ming looked at Jiang Huai guiltily. “Brother, I’m sorry.”

Jiang Huai held the hoe and said optimistically, “It’s fine. At most, we can use it to dig up wild vegetables.”
Everyone dispersed and walked into the forest. Tan Si had filmed a few period dramas before. The production team had specially hired a teacher to teach her how to ride a horse and shoot an arrow. Coupled with her foundation in archery from elementary school and the fact that it was easier to use a slingshot, Tan Si was quite confident. She got used to it after a few tries.
The forest on the island was not big and had been cleaned up by the production team. There was not much prey inside. The only animals that were left were basically small animals like pheasants and hares that were harmless.
Jiang Huai and Tan Ming planned to dig a hole and set a trap. Zhou Yan and Hou Li came over. “Jiang Huai, An’an, we want to work with you.”
After Jiang Huai saw the animal organs in their hands, he guessed what they were thinking. “How do you want to cooperate?”
Zhou Yan held up a small piece of internal organs that had been divided into leaves. “I don’t have tools to dig traps, but I can provide you with bait to increase your success rate. As long as you give me half of the food you hunt, it’s settled. Do you agree with this plan?”
Jiang Huai was not confident that he could successfully set a trap to confuse the animals, but if there was bait, the success rate would definitely be greatly increased.
However, when it came to benefits, they definitely had to haggle. Jiang Huai raised his eyebrows and smiled. “Sure, but we want two-thirds. After all, we have to dig a few pits and do more hard labor.”
Zhou Yan shrugged and agreed readily. The couple proposed the same thing to the remaining three teams.
“I’m impressed! As expected of a couple who graduated from a key university. Their brains are really good.”
“Originally, I thought that the food bait option was the weakest among them. I didn’t understand why these two smart people chose this useless option. Now, it seems that the fool was actually me!”
“In this game, Zhou Yan and Hou Li’s greatest amount of exercise is probably from dividing the bag of bait into four parts.”
“Hahaha, what a huge amount of exercise!”
Tan Si was a little disgusted by touching the bloody internal organs. She held the slingshot and did not move when she saw what was in Hou Li’s. Wang Li hurriedly went forward to take them and smiled kindly. “Host Hou, you came at the right time. With the bait to lure the animals to the spot, it will be much easier for us to shoot.”
Hou Li’s eyes curved as she replied gently, “Helping you is also helping us. It’s a win-win situation.”
After the two parties agreed to split it equally, Zhou Yan and his wife left.
Wang Li found a place with a wide field of vision and placed a small portion at different places. Then, the two of them hid in the grass not far away and waited.
After receiving Song Xin’s instructions, the head of the fan army ordered his subordinates to launch a new round of attacks.
Amidst the praises from live-stream viewers who were complimenting her beauty and grace when using the slingshot, an inconspicuous netizen began to sing a different song.
“Why do I feel like Tan Si lets her mother do everything? It’s the same when they were cooking lunch. Now, it’s the same when it comes to taking the internal organs. Why did she come to an outdoor variety show if she’s afraid of getting her hands dirty?”
“Agreed +1. I came in to take a look this morning out of curiosity. I’ve been paying attention since then. I also find it a little strange. Tan Si doesn’t do any dirty work at all.”
