The entire school embarks on a survival journey, starting from a primeval rainforest.

Chapter 102: A Balance of Kindness and Strictness, Taking Stock of the Gains

Jiang Fan had summoned Nangong Yue to his side because he had important matters to discuss.

The idea that winning people's hearts requires a combination of kindness and severity has existed since ancient times.

Today's test of everyone was "power," the reward display was also "power," and the purpose of admitting his actions on the way was "favor." The fact that he let the core members have dinner with those 35 people was still "favor."

But all of this is missing one crucial element to truly win people's hearts.

Modern people are not like people in ancient times, especially these contemporary young people who have studied for more than ten years.

What they have no shortage of are all sorts of thoughts and youthful arrogance, as well as the idea that "my fate is in my own hands, not in the heavens."

When Nangong Yue sat down next to him, Jiang Fan took out 35 white cards from the thick stack of cards he had received from Li Wenzhou and handed them to her.

"One for each person, so that no one makes a wasted trip."

With Ding Rui managing the rear, a large number of cards were being deposited into the account every day, so Jiang Fan no longer had an urgent need for these cards.

Nangong Yue was surprised at first, then nodded.

Ding Rui, sitting opposite, also showed a knowing look.

No matter how enticing the promise of a reward may be, nothing wins people's hearts more effectively than a tangible one.

Although Nangong Yue understood Jiang Fan's idea, she shook her head and said, "Let Xiaorui go, I don't need to."

"No, you go." But this time, Jiang Fan's attitude was unusually firm.

This opportunity to bestow favors is also a process of accumulating prestige. Moreover, being able to do this on his behalf represents his attitude.

Those 35 people are the backbone of the future combat force, and since Nangong Yue wants to develop in this direction, he naturally wants to provide assistance.

He himself no longer needs to use such petty tricks to establish prestige.

At the same time, giving this opportunity to Nangong Yue in front of Ding Rui was also a way of showing the two of them an attitude.

He won't show favoritism!

Seeing the determination in Jiang Fan's eyes, Nangong Yue finally didn't refuse anymore: "Okay."

She didn't say "thank you" because their current relationship wasn't suitable for such formalities.

Meanwhile, the four tables of people were having a lively conversation, discussing Cao Bin's arrogance, his impotent rage and astonishment after the matter was settled, and Nangong Yue's skillful maneuver to bring Wang Li back.

But most of the conversation revolved around Jiang Fan's composure and strategic planning.

They frequently raised their glasses, drinking beer that had been chilled in the ice cellar as soon as they brought it back.

Jiang Fan wasn't a big drinker, and his attitude towards this stuff was that he could drink it or not.

Moreover, today's harvest was enormous, and it was indeed appropriate to celebrate. Therefore, we decided to let Raymond Lam and the others indulge themselves.

It was at this moment that Nangong Yue came to the group, gave each of the 35 people a white card, and chatted with each of them for a few minutes.

This immediately flattered everyone. While they were grateful to Jiang Fan and Xinghuo, they also felt some gratitude towards Nangong Yue.

Jiang Fan noticed that his gratitude value was rising again, and couldn't help but glance in the direction of the East Campus.

At some point earlier, the gratitude value, which had been steadily increasing, suddenly stopped.

Considering the rapid changes in the total number of people on the leaderboard, the reasons for these changes are not hard to guess.

Clearly, Peter Feng was a smart man. He understood all the hints, from handing over the remaining gangsters to the Honglu Society to prevent the confiscation of their weapons, and even taking the initiative to ask Li Wenzhou to leave.

However, he also dealt with Wang Tianyuan and his group, which was not Jiang Fan's original intention, but he didn't care too much.

Since the time travel began, countless people have died at this school every day. Without Xinghuo's protection, it was only a matter of time before Wang Tianyuan, a spineless coward, died.

Taking a sip of his chilled beer, Jiang Fan mentally summarized the gains of this operation.

First, with Cao Bin dead, the remaining gangsters were wiped out.

Secondly, the composition of the hunting team is more straightforward. Whether they guessed his methods or were truly willing to die rather than submit, it shows that the remaining 35 people are indeed promising talents.

Third, the pull of the death trial of the remnants of the martial arts world resulted in a surge in gratitude points. (Latest update: The entire school is transported to another world, starting their survival journey in a primeval rainforest.)

Fourth, recruit Bai Feifei. As a medical professional, she will play a pivotal role in the current environment, especially given the earlier announcement of the activation of the deputy position system, which foreshadows her potential important use.

After all, the effects of exotic beast meat on injuries and illnesses are limited, and the sap of living trees is scarce and precious. Traditional medicine still plays an irreplaceable and significant role.

Fifth, eliminate Shi Jingcheng to reduce the risk of Zheng Daoguang's identity being exposed.

Sixth, we can recruit the Honglu Society as a covert agent for development towards the East Campus. With Li Wenzhou's surrender, we can develop him into an overt agent for our side in the East Campus. With one overt agent and one covert agent, we can compete for control of the East Campus in no time.

Seventh, by eliminating the "impurities" of the Jianghu and Honglu Society, the campus atmosphere will be greatly restored. In addition, the establishment of an order maintenance organization will further help the students unite and cope with any possible future crises involving foreign races.

At the same time, this newly established organization will also allow them to gain a certain degree of influence over matters concerning the East Campus.

Eighth, with the downfall of Cao Bin and Jianghu, the names "Jiang Fan" and "Xinghuo" will surely establish their authority in the East Campus, making many things much easier to handle in the future.

For example, Ding Rui once told him privately that when she went to the East Campus to exchange things, the other party would almost always ask for an exorbitant price.

However, the situation is completely the opposite in the West Campus. Whenever a Spark member makes a transaction with someone else or has any needs, the other party will make concessions and give them face.

Ninth, by taking advantage of Bai Feifei's incident, he acquired a large number of rare and limited-edition resources, and thereby secured the top spot on the leaderboard, turning what should have been a green card reward into a blue card.

However, it's a pity that the points for these supplies, which have already been calculated on the leaderboard, will not be recalculated when they are distributed to other people.

Otherwise, you could exploit a bug and farm points indefinitely.

Tenth, during this alliance, I inadvertently brought Tang Qingyu and me closer, which will be helpful for our future cooperation.

Eleventh, I took this opportunity to gain a clearer understanding of this mysterious guy, Li Qingfeng.

Twelfth, he obtained 64 white cards and 3 green cards from Li Wenzhou, a total of 67 cards. Moreover, the remnants of the underworld were dead, and their residences would inevitably have left behind a large amount of supplies. Jiang Fan believed that Feng Peter was a smart man and would not mess with these things. They could be used to help Li Wenzhou develop his own forces in the East Campus.

Thirteenth, through this incident, he demonstrated his personal martial prowess in front of everyone and also gained an understanding of the martial arts level of Xiang Tian and Feng Peter.

As Jiang Fan was summarizing the gains of this operation, Ding Rui, with a charming smile, kept picking out tomatoes from her own bowl and putting them into Jiang Fan's bowl.

When Jiang Fan looked at her, she smiled and said, "You kept picking out the tomatoes to eat first, so you seem to really like them."

"It's alright." Jiang Fan nodded. "Eating meat all the time is a bit tiring, this sour stuff is really nice, is it from the garden harvest?"

Ding Rui nodded: "Yes, it's really amazing that this thing goes from seed to maturity in just three days."

However, the effects of the land improvement card and the simple irrigation card only last for three days, which seems to be a setting.

One seed card, one soil improvement card, and one simple irrigation card—three cards in three days—resulted in a harvest of crops.

Only the space on the expansion card can be reused; it's just unknown whether the crop seeds, once collected and planted, will grow.

Fortunately, the appearance rate of seed cards is not low, so even if they cannot be reused, there is no shortage of things to plant.

Also, the dried meat you've been drying in your meat drying room is ready. You've harvested over thirty catties. Try some when you have time; it seems to be more than just ordinary dried meat.

"It's so good to have you!" Jiang Fan praised succinctly.

Ding Rui's face immediately lit up with a happy smile, and then she whispered mysteriously, "I'll give you a surprise later!"

Jiang Fan's heart stirred.

Cake? Probably not, I already knew that.

Blue cards? I just received three at once, and the other party, as the deputy head of the community, must have one. This is something everyone knows, so it shouldn't be considered a "surprise," right?

What else could it be?

But when he asked her, Ding Rui kept him in suspense and refused to say anything.

She simply rested her chin on her hand, idly teasing the chopsticks in her mouth with her small, cute tongue.
