The red sun hung high in the east, and the crimson light pierced the clouds in the sky like a sharp sword.

In Ziyang Mountain, Chen Xian and Yan Jian, father and daughter, stood on the top of the peak and looked down.

The city of Hangzhou woke up, and in Qinghefang in the west of the city, the merchants and passers-by were densely packed like ants; On the land and water wharves in the north of the city, the workers were engaged in the day's work earlier; In the distance, there are still fishing boats moving with the waves on the Grand Canal.

If you can use your eyes to see the two prefectures of Jiaxing and Huzhou farther away, you can see people all over the mountains, these are people who are in a trance and walking aimlessly, and some people fall to the ground while walking......

"The old man likes to climb this Ziyang Mountain because as long as he climbs to the peak, he can see all the things in the world." Yan Jianji's eyes were full of expectation and satisfaction when he looked at Hangzhou City, as if he was looking at his own heirs.

"Old Yan likes the feeling of being at the top of the list?" Chen Xian didn't understand what he meant, and said casually.

"Not what I want." Yan Jian smiled and shook his head, then suddenly turned around and asked, "How is the bet between Xingzhi and the people?" ”

"Almost!" Chen Xian shrugged his shoulders, and immediately remembered something, so he took out a card from his arms, handed it to Zixiao, and said with a smile: "Gadgets, take it to play." ”

"What is this?" Zixiao took it and took a look, but saw that the card made of hard yellow paper was written in small letters: "Five-one-three-two-one" numbers, and there was a line of small red characters next to it: "Huancailou Lottery, only participate in the lottery on the 22nd day of the lunar month, and it will not be redeemed after expiration." ”

"Huancailou made a lottery." Chen Xian raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "There are five days to go, but don't forget to be there!" ”

"Lottery? Lottery ......" Zixiao every time she thought about it, those eyes flickered and flickered cutely, and at this moment, these crescent-like eyes flashed for a moment, and she asked in surprise: "What is the prize?" ”

"Oh. The first prize was five hundred taels of silver. ”

"So much?" Yan Jian turned around, snatched the lottery ticket and looked down, then raised his head and stared at Chen Xian with a scrutinizing gaze, and asked vigilantly: "Okay, why did you give me this lottery ticket?" ”

"Not for you!" Chen Xian smiled bitterly, and said in his heart This old saying is really cautious, aren't you afraid that I won't be able to give him a gift?

"This is for Zixiao!" Chen Xian snatched the lottery ticket back from Yan Jian's hand, stuffed it back into Zixiao's hand, and said with a smile: "Zixiao is rich and expensive at a glance, maybe he can win the jackpot!" ”

"Flutter!" Zixiao couldn't help laughing, but then pretended to be angry and said, "Is Gongzi Chen saying that Zixiao is bloated and fat?" ”

"How can I!"

……

There are four small tables in front of the ring at this time, and there is a small two sitting in front of each table who is responsible for collecting money, and the lottery players who have paid the money will reach into the wooden box and touch out a small card, and then turn around and leave with the dream of getting rich.

Feng Niang was moving around in the cubicle on the third floor, anxious like an ant on a hot pot, and from time to time she looked at the crowd queuing below.

"Feng Niang, don't be anxious......," Lu Xiaochai sat quietly at the table and said softly.

"How can I not be in a hurry!" Feng Niang stood still, looked downstairs restlessly, and said, "I'm afraid that three hundred lottery tickets have been sold downstairs!" Chen Xian! Didn't he say that he was going to do something, regulate and operate! ”

Lu Xiaochai had a headache, so she rubbed her temples, she really couldn't sleep well last night, every time she closed her eyes on the bed, her heart seemed to be tightly pinched by a hand.

She is worrying about Chen Xian, although the initiator seems to be full of confidence, but this lottery ticket lost so much silver on the first day of sales, how can people not worry......

"Yesterday I sold 70 lottery tickets, and I lost 110 taels, and if I sell 700 tickets today......" Feng Niang said this, only to feel that her palms were sweaty, she felt Xiupa wipe the moisture in her palms, and looked downstairs again.

This time she was not disappointed, and saw Chen Xian walking from a distance in the crowd looking left and right, the latter obviously did not have a trace of nervousness, and even occasionally stopped to chat with the people queuing up to buy lottery tickets.

Feng Niang saw Chen Xian's idle appearance, and she was angry, and said viciously: "This kid is back." ”

Lu Xiaochai Fei also stood up, leaned on the window edge and looked down, and when she found Chen Xian in the crowd, the corners of her mouth couldn't help but rise.

Feng Niang looked at Lu Xiaochai like this, and couldn't help but shake her head and sigh, although Xiaochai is not her biological daughter, she is more ordinary mother and daughter emotionally, she has already told the latter her views on men and her own biological experience, but this stupid woman is deaf!

She really didn't want to see Xiao Hai look like an infatuation, so she shook her head and sighed and turned her back.

After another moment, Chen Xiancai walked upstairs unhurriedly, holding the statistics of the numbers sold today in his hand, looking at it as he walked, not caring about Feng Niang's knife-like gaze at all.

Chen Xian lowered his head and pushed the door into the room, then walked straight to the table and sat down, and from time to time took out a brush to write down some strange symbols, as if he was calculating something.

Feng Niang and Lu Xiaochai knew that Chen Xian was doing some kind of regulation, so they didn't dare to disturb at the moment, so they stood next to him and looked at him with bated breath.

After a full hour, Chen Xian stopped his pen and stretched, and when he raised his head, he suddenly found that there was someone beside him, so he smiled and said to Xiaochai: "Well, I just counted the numbers of the lottery tickets sold, and I was a little distracted, sorry." ”

"Chen Lang......" Lu Xiaochai called faintly, and then glanced in the direction of Feng Niang's beautiful eyes, her eyes seemed to be able to speak, so that Chen Xian immediately realized - Feng Niang must be in a hurry.

"Haha." Chen Xian smiled, stood up and said, "Feng Niang, let Xiao Er take the bag of wooden balls that says 'Big Lotto' tonight." ”

Yesterday deliberately lost money, naturally because of the need to attract popularity, judging from the effect of queuing at the door today, the advertising effect of using this one hundred and ten taels of silver is really amazing.

What Chen Xian just did was to count which number is the most and which number is the least in the lottery tickets sold today, and then according to the profit maximization standard, to determine the numbers drawn today.

To put it simply, Chen Xian not only wrote the numbers in his hands for the lottery players, but also was very enthusiastic to help choose the numbers that were drawn.

Chen Xian didn't want to work so hard to calculate the lottery numbers every day, he also wanted to make a completely random lottery ticket, but ...... Isn't this a bet with Feng Niang to earn enough money to redeem Lu Xiaochai within three months!

After redeeming her, you must always buy gold, silver and jewelry for this beautiful woman, right? And the house in Bamboo Pole Lane has to be renovated, and the furniture has to be replaced with mahogany carvings, right?

If you have a child in the future, you must always leave a tens of thousands of taels of silver and let him be a cockfighting dog and a dog!

Although it is against his conscience to operate this kind of thing in the dark, if he wants to complete the gambling contract within three months and repay Lu Xiaochai's beauty, this is the best choice he can think of.
