Old streets often mean that they are in disrepair, potholes, and there will always be a lot of muddy puddles after a rain.

In the 98-year-old Red M County, the most common thing is still two-wheeled bicycles and motorcycles, which run over the puddles and splash muddy water.

If you don't hide in time, you'll inevitably get mud splashed on your trouser legs.

Fortunately, at the end of August, there was not much heavy rain, and the road surface seemed a lot fresher, and the entire old West Street, under the store door was a long bench sticking out, and the two door panels became the simplest shelves.

September 1 is the first day of school.

As a unique school district street in the whole county, the old west gate runs through the four schools in the entire county, plus the back gate of the county No. 1 middle school not far away.

The whole street has not stopped since the morning.

The students and their parents walked from the corner of the street to the end of the street, and the money in their pockets was naturally replaced with pots and pots of toiletries.

But for the senior students who are familiar with Lao Xi Street, the best place to go is naturally not the grocery stores full of bargaining clamour, but the old alley near the west side of the vegetable market.

Entering from the entrance of the alley, less than 20 meters away is the back entrance of the game hall, and outside is a small courtyard with two osmanthus trees.

Push open the courtyard door and enter the cubicle, and the game hall full of all kinds of scolding and electronic music is next door.

As the new boss of the arcade.

The first time to run a game hall like this, Li Yang is undoubtedly a little busy at this time.

After sending Wang Kai to the station in the morning, he hurried back to clean the computer room inside and out.

The poster bought for 10 yuan was replaced on the wall, and a few trash cans were added to the corner, which looked like that when Wang Kai was there.

This guy is used to being lazy, and it is impossible for him to pick up these things, in his opinion, except for making money, these are all details.

Li Yang was a little unimpressed.

The environment is better, and nature has its role.

Originally, Li Yang thought that he would not open on the first day and wait until the next day to finish cleaning before opening.

But in the afternoon, the courtyard door was knocked several times, in order not to miss the good day of school on September 1, so I quickly pulled the electric switch and started to open on the same day.

As for the opening ceremony, everything is simple.

Besides, the more low-key the video game hall, the more trouble-free it is.

In the past, when studying history, historians most often said, "When a cannon goes off, there are ten thousand taels of gold." ”

Now that he has pulled the electric switch, the business is equivalent to rising, and as for whether it will be ten thousand taels of gold, Li Yang is also a little uncertain in his heart.

But in the next afternoon, Li Yang really experienced the amazing charm of the 98 game hall for the first time, or rather, the magic.

Just started school.

For students who spend a whole summer in the countryside or in some kind of silence, the arcade is undoubtedly a good place to indulge their emotions.

In addition, I have saved a lot of change in my pocket, and I am much more generous than usual.

Except for the two slot machines, which were less played, the remaining 13 arcade machines never stopped at all.

Before opening, Li Yang also secretly inquired about the market of several other game halls in the county.

At this time, the money is still relatively durable, one dollar can buy 5 game coins, if the technology is a little better, basically you can play for more than ten or twenty minutes, but most people are knocked out in the blink of an eye.

After all, there are only a few such small number of masters, and this kind of people are all human spirits who have soaked in the game hall for the entire student era.

What game to clear and what skills to clear is basically clear.

After playing a lot, he naturally understands the tricks inside, Li Yang just looked at it and didn't speak, and all he earned was his own money.

But on the first day of the opening.

Li Yang still knows how to use some tips for soliciting customers, so when he comes to him, 1 yuan becomes 6 game coins.

As a result, almost all 13 machines in the entire game hall became somewhat overcrowded, and as soon as it was over, someone immediately rushed up to grab a seat.

In the end, the two slot machines in the corner also became sought-after.

Of course.

Li Yang has actually been holding a string in his mind, slot machines, to put it bluntly, are gambling machines, nothing more than a change of tricks, but what is stuffed into it is real money, a 1 yuan coin is 10 points, and it is gone with a light press of his fingers.

It's okay to say if you win, but if you lose, you're really blind.

Gambling has always been the most demagogic, winning money is people's primitive desire, but experiencing that emotion, in fact, the temptation is not necessarily less than winning.

After all, there are not many game hall owners like Li Yang who are at least guarding the bottom line, and he also wants to do a good job in the reputation of the game hall, so on the slot machine side, in addition to swallowing some scattered coins.

Every once in a while, a small train will come and vomit a big one, and if you eat a coin of thirty or fifty yuan, you will always spit out ten or twenty yuan.

This time, when it was almost time to finish dinner in the afternoon, the two slot machines that were thought to be idle became the most sought-after positions.

A handful of calculating students who win a dozen or twenty dollars will quickly give up and go on to buy a three-to-five-dollar game currency to play The King of Fighters or other games.

But on the whole, Li Yang swept the banknotes exchanged in the drawer, and in less than 5 hours of work this afternoon, these two slot machines alone swallowed at least more than 100 yuan and almost 200 yuan.

Therefore, when the electric switch is pulled, the gold will not be ten thousand taels, but the small two hundred yuan can still be earned.

Although it was the first day of school, business should be better, but on the whole, Li Yang felt a little more confident in his heart.

"Boss, give me 100 coins. ”

Just when Li Yang was thinking about how much he could get into his account today, suddenly a few young people who looked like high school students had already come to the front of the stage.

The tall and thin boy in the middle directly handed over a blue ticket with a face value of 100, and the expression on his face looked very ordinary.

However, Li Yang still kept an eye on it.

100 yuan is not a small amount for students after all, and it is really necessary to swallow all people, and it is too ugly to eat.

So after a little thought, I immediately had an idea.

"100 yuan? less, I don't have that many coins here, how about I exchange it for fifty for you?"

Since he wanted to do this business, Li Yang naturally couldn't have prepared 100 coins, so Wang Kai borrowed 1,000 yuan from him before leaving as activity funds.

Li Yang went to the vegetable market opposite in one breath to exchange for 500 coins, in addition to the previous ones, there were more than 300 in the drawer.

Fortunately, the tall and thin high school student didn't say anything, just frowned.

"Okay, 50 is 50, you find me 40 yuan, exchange it for 10 yuan of game currency. ”

Li Yangma counted the coins and game coins and handed them over, and found another 40 yuan.

Seeing that Li Yang actually gave 60 game coins, the high school students seemed a little surprised.

"Boss, how do you exchange the game currency here? ”

"Today, on the first day of school, 1 yuan for 6, tomorrow it will be 5. ”

"Oh, that's right, so I'm okay with buying more, right?"

"Okay, how much do you want. ”

Li Yang will not be polite to buy game currency, no matter how you play, you can't swallow much of this thing, but as soon as he finished speaking, he was a little dumbfounded.

I saw that the high school student actually took out a 100 bill from his pocket and put it directly on the table.

"Then I'll buy another 100 yuan, I can't use it this time, I can come next time. ”

it!

Tyrants!

100 bucks in game currency!!
