Snakehead Laizi did not want to stop them, but due to the pressure of the rules, he could not.
To minimize potential losses from people being poached, he also had to have Ah Quan do the same as Xiaopingtou: to lure people from other areas into his blue zone.
He had done this himself a long time ago, but stopped actively participating later.
That kind of thing was too low-level and felt uninteresting.
The highest-level game was this: scouting for suitable candidates.
Of course, this also depended on fate.
Who knew if he would miscalculate?
So far, miscalculations had been few.
Because people with noble fates possessed a noble demeanor, they could not be swayed by trivial gains.
"Just come in and see for yourself! I have the most beautiful scenery on the entire island. The top three from last time all came from our area!"
Xiaopingtou shouted enthusiastically.
Upon hearing that the top three were from his area, many people's eyes lit up.
"Is that true?"
"Of course it's true, why would I lie to you? Believe it or not, go ask around elsewhere and see if more people entered from my area!"
Xiaopingtou boasted shamelessly.
Around him, several people who appeared to be his subordinates wore blank expressions, a look of knowing amusement on their faces.
Xiaopingtou's demeanor was completely different from Snakehead Laizi's, his personality flamboyant.
Bai Suxiang's intuition told her that someone who spoke like this was definitely unreliable.
Who would make such sweeping statements?
She felt that Snakehead Laizi was more trustworthy, and she should not disregard the reminder from the note.
At this moment, several girls had already stepped into Xiaopingtou's blue zone, and Xiaopingtou's face lit up with joy.
"Let's go, let's go, let's go in and have a look too!"
Ye Feifei saw this and said eagerly.
"No, no, no, let's look around some more. Did you forget about the note?"
Bai Suxiang reminded her.
"Hmph! What a useless note! Sigh..."
Ye Feifei sighed, complaining.
She did not go in directly either, and felt a little hesitant in her heart.
Just then, a familiar voice called out, "Beautiful scenery, we have it here too, and I guarantee it's scenery you've never seen before in your life! Something unique on the entire island!"
Bai Suxiang turned her head and saw it was Ah Quan.
Snakehead Laizi followed not far behind, but did not speak, nor did he even look in their direction.
They were supposed to be acquaintances, yet now he pretended not to know them. What was going on?
"Hey! Look, it's Snakehead Laizi. Why is he also here trying to recruit people?"
Fang Xiaoxia said, pointing towards the entrance of Snakehead Laizi's area.
"Hmph! Yes, he just warned us not to enter the blue zone, and now he's here recruiting people. What does that mean?"
Ye Feifei said indignantly.
No one knew what he was up to.
Seeing many people entering, and upon entering exclaiming excitedly, "Wow, it's really beautiful, much more beautiful than outside!"
Such words, if said once, were enough to pique a young girl's curiosity, let alone hearing the same words repeated many times.
Ye Feifei could no longer suppress her curiosity and immediately got up, saying, "Let's go, let's go and see Snakehead Laizi's area. That should be okay, right! Besides, we know each other, so it should be safe!"
What Ye Feifei said made sense, and Fang Xiaoxia agreed, immediately saying, "Yes, yes, yes, this should be absolutely safe!"
Bai Suxiang thought about it. There was nothing wrong with that, as it was logical to do so.
So, they slowly followed behind them towards Snakehead Laizi's entrance.
The two entrances were actually not far apart, only about four or five meters.
A few people were too lazy to walk, and seeing Snakehead Laizi's blue zone was closer, they walked straight into it.
Ye Feifei ran over with joy, muttering, "Here we come, let's go in and take a look too. Is that okay, Brother Snake!"
Snakehead Laizi saw her, but there was no smile on his face. Instead, he looked furious and pushed her away, saying, "Go, go, go, do I know you? If anyone can come in, won't the island be overcrowded!"
Ye Feifei was caught off guard. Being thin, she lost her balance and was pushed to the ground.
"Feifei, are you okay! How is it, huh? Are you hurt?"
Fang Xiaoxia saw this and rushed forward to help her up, asking.
"You! Hmph! You brought us up here, but you won't let us see. What does this mean?"
Ye Feifei was furious. Ignoring Fang Xiaoxia's concerned questions, she yelled at Snakehead Laizi.
At this moment, Snakehead Laizi still did not speak.
This was the rule of the island; he could not take people he had brought into his own area.
Moreover, he had already clearly told them not to enter the blue zone, yet she still didn't believe it. If he didn't teach her a lesson, she wouldn't give up.
Seeing Ye Feifei pushed down, Bai Suxiang quickly ran a few steps to her and said to Snakehead Laizi, "What's going on?"
Snakehead Laizi replied coldly, "Go, go, go, get out of the way! If you keep causing trouble here, don't blame me for being impolite!"
Snakehead Laizi did not want to do this.
Doing so made it easy for his people to be poached by others.
But these were the rules of the island.
Therefore, Xiaopingtou always brought back a bunch of miscellaneous people.
Those people, even if offered, others wouldn't want them.
Snakehead Laizi had no backing. If he didn't find suitable prospects, he would have no income.
Fortunately, his eye for people was good, which was why he focused his efforts on selecting candidates.
Bai Suxiang was his biggest gamble this time. If she was poached, this business venture would be a complete failure.
To prevent accidents, he had quietly instructed someone to leave a note, and now he had explicitly warned them not to enter the blue zone.
If they couldn't see such an obvious hint, it was for their own good, which meant it was all fate.
As expected, Bai Suxiang's heart was thinking: Snakehead Laizi could have easily let them in, but now he explicitly refused. He had left a note in the morning, so the blue zone was probably not as simple as it seemed.
But one thing was certain: "The blue zone must not be entered!"
However, Ye Feifei couldn't be bothered with all that.
She had been looked down upon before coming to the island, and now that she was on the island, she wasn't even allowed to look? She was truly angry.
"Hmph! If we're not allowed to go here, can't we go somewhere else? Let's go over there, hmph!"
Ye Feifei complained with unwillingness, grabbed Fang Xiaoxia's hand, and ran towards Xiaopingtou.
"Oh, no! Don't go! Wait for me!"
Bai Suxiang called out quickly as she watched them run away.
Xiaopingtou chuckled when he saw this.
"Little sisters, it's alright. If they don't take you, we will, and I guarantee that if you step inside, you'll have a harvest today!"
Xiaopingtou said at the right moment.
Whether he said it or not was not important; Ye Feifei had made up her mind to go in and see.
"Wait!"
