Chapter Thirty-Eight: Making a Small Profit
"It's hard to set up a stall, and it seems easy to get a lottery!"
Lei Xiaofeng weighed a steel hammer in his hand, and under the incentive system of the store's five-fold reward, he could buy a 2 yuan one. After taking a look at all the scratch products, Lei Xiaofeng was very interested in a kind of poker called lucky poker. The rules are simple, as long as your hand is greater than your opponent's card, you can win the corresponding prize.
"Congratulations! Get a $5 bonus! ”
With the help of the mystery pupil, Lei Xiaofeng won a 5 yuan bonus. However, he did not receive the bonus and said to the boss:
"Then buy five more, shall we?"
"Good luck! Won $25! Each one won five dollars. You might as well try it, young man, five dollars! That's the big denomination. The boss kindly reminded.
When Lei Xiaofeng glanced at the 5 yuan face value scratch ticket that the boss said, two words soon floated out of his head: profiteer. There are at least 20 pieces of scratch tickets for 5 yuan in a stack, since none of them are prized.
At the same time, he understood that the boss's marketing methods were first attractive with a high probability of winning the lottery at 2 yuan per ticket, and then guided to buy a higher face value on the basis of small profits, and those who did not know would definitely lose beyond recognition.
"Nope. I'm still sticking with this, right? Lei Xiaofeng hit 6 in a row. He glanced at the remaining two Lucky Poker Dollars. There are also quite a few of them that can win 5 yuan. That kind of winning 30,000 and more didn't show up in it. However, Lei Xiaofeng found a bonus of 2,000 yuan.
The lottery center was full of people, and the boss watched Lei Xiaofeng keep staring, and he didn't know what choice he made, so he hurriedly beckoned someone else to go. In the eyes of the boss, this baby is just a whim, trying his luck.
"Boss! Help you count them, how many are left, right? Lei Xiaofeng pointed to the pile of lucky pokers with a face value of 2 yuan and asked, most of them have no amount, but the amount of 2000 just happened to be mixed in.
"Little brother, we don't sell those defective products." The boss replied with some embarrassment.
The actual reason is that the boss knows that this batch of 2 yuan scratch tickets was made by him from above, and the others have been sorted out, and most of the prizes have been deducted, and only the 2 yuan area is still the same as it was. The boss was worried about the loss of large denominations, so he didn't dare to sell them all.
"Not for sale! Open the door to do business, and there are those that are not sold. ”
Lei Xiaofeng deliberately raised his voice and shouted. This kind of behavior is like you go to buy a welfare lottery ticket, and finally choose a set of satisfactory numbers, and then the boss sues you that this set of numbers is forbidden to buy is the same reason.
Many lottery players looked at it with surprise in their eyes, what is the situation?
"It's not that it's not for sale, it's just that you haven't seen it? Some of the security areas are damaged. I haven't had time to sort it out yet. Little brother, I won't hide it from you if you want it all. The security area is not allowed to be singled out. The owner explained.
"Why?"
"It's our rule. Please don't embarrass me? The boss replied with a smile. The implication is that doing business is a matter of being willing to fight and suffer, you can buy it if you want to, you can buy it all, right?
"Little brother, let's try the five-dollar denomination, right? Why bother with a few that can't be used anymore? The boss slowly seduced.
"Boss, this 25 yuan, except for a steel hammer, is all today's harvest. I'm not greedy, so I'll just pay you back 20 yuan! Give me all 20 of them. Lei Xiaofeng's generous appearance, other lottery players only thought it was funny. Which one is not here to win the lottery or something. There are too many free ones to give to the boss.
An old man shook his head and said, "Boss, will you give it to him?" Don't break the rules on the first day of opening today. If you really hit the jackpot, your store's reputation will be out. ”
The boss didn't reply, and then the two people who played the two-color ball also chimed in and said, "Boss, isn't it just a 20 yuan business?" People don't care, you give it to him. Could it be that there is a cat greasy in it? ”
As soon as these words came out, the originally noisy lottery center suddenly quieted down. If there is really a cat, it will damage the reputation, maybe the lottery player will get angry and smash his shop.
"Big brother, it's a joke! How is that possible? I'm doing this for the good of my little brother. Since you don't care. Then it's all for you! $20. ”
Lei Xiaofeng sat on the side and looked good, and a few cards were not awarded, and the curious lottery players around him were not interested. By the time of the last 5 cards, I won 10 yuan.
"One more and you'll get back to basics."
Lei Xiaofeng then croaked, then a 5 yuan one, then a 10 yuan one, and when the last two were left, Lei Xiaofeng said to the old man next to him: "Uncle, do me a favor!" Lend you some luck. Croaking one for me? ”
The old man was naturally happy, but the next moment he was stunned, "Oops! Damn! I won 2,000 yuan. You're in luck, lad. ”
2,000 yuan is not a big number, but it is rare to be able to get 2 yuan. Naturally, the old man will not pay his debts.
"It's not my luck! But you're lucky, sir! ”
Lei Xiaofeng got 2,000 yuan and liquidated it, with a total of 2,030 yuan in his pocket. Anyway, it's open today.
"Dean Wang, who are you?"
As soon as Lei Xiaofeng came out of the lottery center, he saw Dean Wang's grandfather and grandson, standing next to the booth.
"Doctor Thor, I didn't say you. You walked away, why don't you clean up this stall? Am I helping you look at the stall? Dean Wang replied politely.
"I just went to try my luck, and if I won 2,000 yuan, it can be regarded as an opening."
"Doctor Leishen, if you really want to try your luck, why don't you go to the old neighborhood with me. Pick up a leak anywhere, it's much better than this lottery. ”
"Dean Wang, what do you say?"
Anyway, no one saw a doctor, so Lei Xiaofeng and Dean Wang found out, it turned out that Dean Wang was an antique hobby, and every day after work, he was used to going to the old neighborhood to pick up leaks, but there were many times he was eye-catching. So it can only be said that it is a hobby. This is exactly the reason why Lei Xiaofeng met his grandfather and grandson in the old neighborhood.
"Antiques, it's broad and profound. This thing can't be said in a word, but most of the things in the world are jade, and of course porcelain, currency, and so on. Anyone who is in the vintage, this is a treasure. If Doctor Thor is interested, let's talk as we go. ”
Speaking of picking up leaks, Dean Wang seemed very happy. Immediately gushing. Ying Ying frowned vigorously when she heard this, but fortunately, along the way, Dean Wang roughly gave an idea of the price of antiques in the current market. This gave Lei Xiaofeng some understanding of antiques. hurriedly rummaged through Huang Hao's memory of what he knew about antiques, but he was disappointed. Huang Hao also knows little about antiques.
……
"Grandpa, where did Brother Xiaofeng go?"
I didn't see Lei Xiaofeng in the morning, and Xia Xiaohao was a little anxious. In her impression, Lei Xiaofeng didn't know anything about big cities. She was worried that Lei Xiaofeng would do something.
"You don't know, how can I know. But on the way back yesterday, he kept nagging about setting up a stall to make money and marry you or something. ”
After Xia Nantian and Old Man Song came back, they slept until now. If it weren't for Xia Xiaohao coming back from the Xia Group to find Lei Xiaofeng, the two old men wouldn't know when they would get up.
Glad! Really happy! Old man Song looked at Lei Xiaofeng in a special way. This kid is so interesting.
"Brother Xiaofeng is really. The phone also doesn't turn on. Xia Xiao glanced at him and ran away shyly.
"Old Xiatou, how did your grandson-in-law come from? I'm looking at the face? It's not like a Wuyang person, right? Old man Song finished washing up and chatted with Xia Nantian.
"You don't beat my grandson-in-law's idea, his heart is all on a small person? I don't think your two little dolls will stand a chance. Momo and Yuanyuan have both eaten deflated on his hands, so don't think about it. ”
Xia Nantian told the matter of Sendu International Hotel by the way, which said that Lei Xiaofeng called Hua Linglong the fourth master. And name the one from fifteen years ago. This matter can't be hidden, because Song Momo also knows, so he will know sooner or later.
Old Song Tou asked curiously, and only then did he know a rough idea.
"That's what happened. Xiaofeng can't be 'his' child, right? Old Song Tou asked in surprise. I hurriedly looked around, afraid of being heard.
Xia Nantian nodded and gave an affirmative answer.
"That's really the case! In this way, Wuyang may have an amazing change. Old man Song said with emotion.
Xia Nantian had an excellent relationship with Old Man Song, so he knew what happened back then. There's a lot at stake, and now is not the time to find out.
"Old Xiatou, that's what you don't mean enough. If it's his child, you're probably not qualified to let him call you grandpa, right? Old man Song felt that he had suffered a loss.
"Isn't he also calling you Grandpa Song?" Xia Nantian asked rhetorically.
"Then what do you count as turning him into your grandson-in-law?" Old man Song still felt that he had suffered a loss.
"I don't blame me for this. When I didn't know his background, Xiaofeng was clamoring to marry Xiaofu. Can I, the grandfather, stop it? ”
Old man Song didn't want to dwell on this topic, so he asked casually: "Hua Linglong is going to hold a flower appreciation conference, have you received an invitation?" ”
"Roger. I'm going to participate this time! Xia Nantian took a deep breath and said.
The flowers are invited to the Wuyang celebrities, and the participation of the Wuyang consortium is indispensable. It's a great opportunity. Xia Nantian could see that Hua Linglong had come up with a flower-viewing conference, and eighty percent was to adjust the tension between Yu and Xia's two families.
"I'll participate too!" Old man Song patted his chest and said.
"It's really rare, didn't it all your two children go in the past? What are you going to do? Xia Nantian asked curiously.
"Why? I'll tell you about it. I'm going to grab this grandson-in-law with you. ”
Old man Song knocked on the table and said with a serious face, "As long as Xiao Feng participates in the activities, I will participate in them in the future!" It's a big deal to lose my old bones. ”
