The year 2496 is the 428th year of the founding of the Sib, and it is also the twentieth anniversary of Sib's independence and the reign of Parson Dofan.

As if to celebrate the 76-year-old Duofan's 20th anniversary of his reign, this year a genius craftsman with the same name presented his improvement of the Lingmen gun, through which the Lingmen gun, which used to require 33 components and 21 operating procedures to be used correctly, has become a Lingmen gun that only needs 30 components and 19 operating procedures to be officially used.

Duofan was very pleased with this, rewarded the craftsman heavily, and then embarked on the project, and called the old Lingmen gun "Boligu Lingmen Gun", and the new Lingmen Gun was called "Duofan Lingmen Gun", which is also the second generation of Lingmen Gun.

Boligu was also very happy, he set up a special "Boligu Prize", used his private funds to award the prize to the craftsman named Dofan, and announced that if there were anyone else who could make the same contribution as this craftsman in science and technology, they could also receive the "Boligu Prize".

By this time, both Boligu and Huls had been retired from politics for many years, retaining only the title of honorary advisor, but although they did not have any team background, their own names were the greatest guarantee, so Boligu's proposal was quickly approved.

In addition to the "Boligu Prize", another proposal by Boligu was also adopted, that is, in order to encourage the invention and innovation of artisans, Boligu demanded that major inventions in the future be automatically named after the inventor, so as to stimulate the enthusiasm of later generations for innovation.

Taking advantage of the hot form, Duofan issued a set of souvenirs as a celebration of this year's festive year, that is, the "Independence Badge", and he claimed that as long as future generations saw this badge, they would think of this glorious year and the great achievements of Siber.

However, what happened next, not even the cold game that did not cast the tentacles of the future, was later known as the "Standalone Pin Bubble", or more simply the "Badge Bubble".

The release of the "Independence Badge" was prepared for half a year, and it was not released until the second half of 2496, and the reason why it was prepared for so long was because Duofan was to have fun with the people.

This batch of "Independence Badges" is on sale for 200,000 pieces, and each set costs 20 Dima copper coins, symbolizing that this year is the 20th anniversary of Dima independence, and the price of only 20 copper coins will be affordable for most citizens.

However, there are a total of 200,000 pieces, and it is obviously impossible to sell them all at once, so they are sold in batches, and only the big nobles and wealthy citizens can pre-order, and the rest have to queue up to get them.

The original cause of the incident is this, the price of the badge is affordable to most citizens, but there are only 200,000, and nearly half of it is divided by the aristocracy, and the result is that there are very few badges on each citizen, at this time the citizens who can grab the independent badge have a lot of face on their faces, if there is more than 1, it will be said that there are people on it.

So don't say that you officially start buying, even if the pre-order qualification is very hyped, the highest price wins, and the total cost in the end actually exceeds the 20 copper coins that are close to the people.

Of course, if you only want to buy a badge for 20 copper coins, you have to be patient in addition to luck, as long as you get up in the middle of the night to line up, there is a high probability that you can grab it.

For example, a citizen named Arabi proudly showed his badge to his colleagues when he went to work: "Do you think this is just a badge? It's only the price of 20 copper coins? No! In my opinion, he symbolizes the hard work of our Dima people, the blood and glory of our fathers!"

Arabi's remarks moved a fat colleague, which made him extremely remorseful, you must know that his family is much richer than Arabi, but it was difficult to buy badges at the beginning, and civilians like them had to queue up for a long time, so this fat colleague was too lazy to grab it, and now he was showing off in front of Alabi, which made the fat colleague very uncomfortable.

The fat colleague who couldn't bear it quietly walked up to Arabi: "Industrious Arabi, can you sell me this badge?" ”

Arabi refused without hesitation, he was still in the workshop today and said what this badge represented, but it was sold after changing hands, and he still had to be ashamed?

After returning home, Arabi heard the not-so-good news that his son Togodo had been bumped into while moving things in the academy, and now the academy wants Arabi to lose money, what can he do? Alabi can only lose money.

This made Arabi very annoyed, as soon as the compensation money came out, the new clothes he originally planned to buy over the weekend were in vain, thinking of this, Alabi was angry at his son who was in trouble, and he didn't sleep well.

The compensation fee is not much, but it has been consumed a lot by Arabi's savings, and citizens like Arabi who can't afford it must save a lot of money at home to save for emergencies.

After waking up uncomfortable, Raabi thought of the fat colleague and thought of the badge...... Honor in the face of money, it seems......

Well, in short, Arabi quickly sold his badge with twice the original price, and with these money, plus the original savings, Arabi can make up for the compensation and make a small profit, even if he buys clothes as planned, he has enough savings for emergency relief.

So on the weekend, Arabi happily went to buy new clothes, and just as he was trying them on, the waiter's words pulled Arabi's thoughts back to the world: "Sir, this dress also has a matching hat, do you want to buy it?"

Arabi was instantly discouraged, his budget was only enough to buy a piece of clothing, if he wanted to buy a matching hat and other things, he had to save for a few more months, this was still a perfect situation without additional spending in these months, and Arabi, who had lived for more than thirty years, knew that this was impossible.

Dejected, he left the clothing store, and after walking for a long time, he ran into a fat colleague, and after an absent-minded greeting, Arabi continued on his way home, only to suddenly shudder, he thought of an idea to get rich.

In the months when he showed off his badge, there was more than one person like a fat colleague who was eager for badges, but in the end, the fat colleague made the highest bid, and Arabi was willing to sell the badge to him, and if he could buy the badge and sell it to others, wouldn't he be able to make money again?

So the next day, Arabi appeared in front of the fat colleague, and said that there was something wrong with his family and he urgently needed money, and asked the fat colleague to lend him a low-interest loan, and the fat colleague's heart was not bad, plus he had just bought Arabi's badge, so he didn't even want interest, and lent Arabi cleanly.

Arabi has always been a diligent citizen before, never went to the casino, and did not suffer any major setbacks, so he has not been exposed to lending, and the borrowed money in his hand suddenly made Arabi panic, but he comforted himself that he would soon turn money into badges, and badges into money.

Then, Arabi went to his brother-in-law's house, he knew that his brother-in-law had a cowardly character, and when Arabi wanted to buy a badge, he asked his brother to queue up overnight to buy it, and then his brother-in-law also had a badge in his hand, which was Arabi's goal.

When he arrived at the brother's house, Arabi said that he had a colleague who was very interested in the badge and was willing to buy the badge with 5 more copper coins, and the brother really had no opinion, and he was very happy after hearing it, anyway, he was not interested in any honor, so he sold the badge to Arabi with 25 copper coins, and gave Arabi 1 copper coin as a handling fee.

Anyway, when he held this copper coin, Arabi was almost moved to tears by the kindness of his brother, but this did not prevent him from selling the badge, he knew that someone was willing to buy it, although the bid was not as high as that of his fat colleague.

So Arabi went to the man and sold the badge for twice the original price, and in this way, he made a net profit of 15 yuan.

Originally, Arabi should have stopped paying back the money now, after all, 5 copper coins are a lot of money, but seeing that he still has a lot of balance in his hand, he gritted his teeth and continued to buy and resell badges.

There are only 200,000 badges in total, and there are not many people circulating among the people, and many people are willing to buy this badge as the glory of their own families.

Alabi quickly repaid the loan to his fat colleague and made up the arrears at the interest rate of the loan shark, saying that the extra money was compensation for his own deception.

The fat colleague with a shocked face wondered how Arabi had so much money, and Arabi smiled and told the fat colleague the secret about the badge, which was also for the fat colleague's sake.

As a result, the fat colleague was moved by Arabi's words, or rather, he was stimulated, this person who was poorer than himself now has so much money in his hands, so the fat colleague is actually ready to quit his job to resell badges, since the fat colleague is more active than himself, what else does Arabi have to say? The two began to work together.

Slowly, Arabi reached out to those who really regarded the badge as a collector's item, and had no intention of selling it, and pulled these people into the water.

"Collection?it's not that I'm vulgar, it's just that Your Excellency's thinking is really outdated, I paid double the price today to buy your badge, and you can sell it for three times as much as you can resell, and this is money," Arabi pulled his brand-new clothes and hats to show the other party, "The price of this thing is rising every day, why don't you get rid of it quickly?"

"Since it's going up every day, why should I sell this to you instead of waiting for it to get even higher?" asked the target, holding his badge, looking uncertain.

Seeing this, Arabi understood that this person had already been moved, and then he just continued to pry open his heart: "You don't understand this, if everyone is like you, how can the price of the badge rise? ”

"So, you sell the badges to me, and I'll take you to the badge market, where you can buy new badges to play in this trade, and I'll tell you the price of the different badges. ”

The target was stunned: "Different badges have different prices?"

Arabi asked for the target's badge explanation, and the target hesitantly handed the badge to Arabi, who stroked the badge as if he were caressing his own heir:

"You look at this badge, different badges due to the state of forging, color, shape, etc. will be slightly different, some badges are still special versions, so the price is also different, your badge color or anything is not good, that is, my family will give you this price, don't believe it you go to the market to ask. ”

In this way, Arabi settled another transaction, which made Alabi feel that a bright future was beckoning him, and this future did not require much hard work to work, what a blessing.
