After learning that there was a big prize, Luffy said directly without hesitation, "Boss, I want all of that stack of 20!"
Li Jingming was stunned, thinking he heard wrongly, "Handsome guy, are you sure you want to buy all the twenty?"
"I can tell you, these are not cheap!"
Luffy said without hesitation, "Yes, that's the 20 pile, give them all to me!"
Li Jingming saw that he was so determined and stopped asking further questions.
He took out all the twenty-dollar scratch-off tickets, took a quick look at them, and immediately handed them to Luffy.
"There are 88 pictures in total, and the total price is 1,760 yuan. If you buy so many handsome guys, I will give you a little less."
"Well... I'll charge you 1,750 yuan! Do you think that's okay?"
Luffy's mouth twitched and he was a little speechless, "Boss, you are too generous, aren't you just ten yuan less?"
He has seen stingy people, but he has never seen such stingy people.
I spent nearly 2,000 yuan, but in the end I was not even willing to wipe out a zero.
He deserves to be called Li Jingming, he is so smart!
Li Jingming twirled the mustache at the corner of his mouth and said with a smile, "Handsome guy, I'm a small business with small profits but quick turnover, so I don't dare to make random discounts."
"Besides, you're the one who's going to win the big prize. Do you still care about such trivial details?"
Oh, you can talk pretty well.
After hearing this, Luffy immediately felt much better, and felt that the sharp-mouthed and monkey-cheeked boss in front of him was much more pleasing to the eye.
Even though he already knew that there must be a big prize inside, he still found it very useful.
People are like this, they prefer to be supported and talked about.
Even so, Luffy still deliberately joked, "Boss, how do you know that I will definitely win? Is there something fishy in this?"
Li Jingming quickly clarified, "Alas, I don't dare to talk nonsense."
"Actually, we're just looking for good luck, and I don't know if it's specific."
"But according to my past experience, every time I enter a stack of scratch cards, there will always be one or two with large rewards."
Luffy thought of what he had seen with his clairvoyant eyes before and deliberately asked, "Could this be the legendary person who buys bones for a thousand gold?"
"Using a grand prize to whet other people's appetite?"
Li Jingming didn't dare to speak after hearing this.
He always felt that the young man in front of him was not simple, as if he could see through himself.
Luffy didn't ask any further questions when he saw this, he just smiled.
Then he weighed the scratch-off tickets in his hand, a little suspiciously, "Boss, are you sure there are 88 of them, you won't be tricking me, right?"
Li Jingming quickly affirmed, "Guarantee that one card will be enough, and if one card is missing, you will lose three!"
He has been in this business for so long, so he still has a good eye.
Luffy saw the confident look on his face and didn't say much. He picked up the clipper on the table and started to scratch.
But halfway through, I suddenly remembered something, took out my mobile phone and paid the money first.
"Boss, I paid every penny for the 1,750 yuan. The ownership of this scratch-off ticket is mine!"
Li Jingming quickly apologized and said, "Whatever the handsome guy said, it doesn't matter whether you pay first or later."
Luffy scoffed at this.
That's what you said now, but it won't necessarily matter if he waits for the grand prize to be drawn out later.
Interests move people's hearts, but people are fickle.
I still remember that he saw a piece of news a few days ago.
After a buddy won a million-dollar jackpot, the first thing the boss lady did was to see if he had paid.
Don't make this intention too obvious.
If you pay the money, it's yours. If you don't pay, I will take her away from you.
A fool would not want a million that can be obtained for free.
…
88 pictures may not seem like a lot, but scraping it off is quite a project.
This kind of twenty-one scratch lottery determines the reward based on the position where the numbers appear.
In short, a number will appear randomly in the upper left corner of each card.
Below is the scratch area with eight rows, each row represents a different reward amount.
As long as the number in the upper left corner appears in a certain row, it means you have won.
The reward amount in this row is the amount of your winnings.
The content is simple and easy to understand.
five minutes later.
As Luffy scratched away the scratch-off tickets, the originally spacious counter table was already full.
Taking advantage of a break after being exhausted, Luffy began to count the current winnings.
“50…30…100…”
Well, the battle is going well.
He had scratched nearly three-quarters of the sheets.
Successfully won the grand prize of 400 yuan with a scratch ticket worth 1,200 yuan.
Don't do it for the sake of cheating.
When the store owner Li Jingming saw this, he immediately cheered him up, "Don't worry, handsome guy, there are still 20 more, maybe there is a big prize in it!"
The passers-by who were watching also started cheering, "Yes, yes, Boss Li has won over a thousand yuan grand prize in this store. There is definitely hope!"
Before he knew it, Luffy was surrounded by people eating melons.
Most of them are lottery enthusiasts in their 30s and 40s.
The most outrageous thing is that an uncle even stood beside him holding his eldest grandson and watching with interest.
It seems that the Xia people's nature of enjoying watching the excitement cannot be changed.
Luffy ignored them and continued his great work after wiping off the excess scratch coating powder on his hands.
what is interesting is.
Whenever Luffy started to scratch another card, the people watching behind him would always crane their necks to look at the card nervously.
Judging from his expression, he seems to hope to win the jackpot more than Luffy does.
That's how people are, every time you buy a small amount, you hope you don't win.
Once you reach a certain amount, everyone expects you to win in one fell swoop.
They all hope to witness small-probability things happening before their eyes, which will make people feel more involved.
In the future, you can be more truthful when bragging to others.
Ten pictures…five pictures…three pictures…
When there were fewer and fewer scratch tickets left, everyone present became more and more nervous.
In the end, I didn’t even dare to breathe loudly, for fear of missing some wonderful moments.
Not to mention them, even Luffy was trembling a little when he looked at the last scratch-off ticket...
His hands were shaking uncontrollably.
If there is no problem, the scratch ticket with the grand prize should be the one in front of you!
After taking a deep breath, he began to unravel the mystery of the other party.
First, scratch off the upper left corner. Inside is the familiar number 69.
Then it’s time to scrape the winning area below.
The first line…nothing.
The second line is still missing.
The fifth line... still nothing!
Line 8… Got it!
The reward for this line is...5000! !
Before Luffy could react, everyone onlookers immediately cheered.
"Damn it! I actually won five thousand yuan!"
"666, this handsome guy can be called a bloodthirsty counterattack!"
"Nima, if I had known I would have bought 20 scratch tickets last time, this 5,000 yuan grand prize might be mine!"
The boss Li Jingming was very happy when he saw this and congratulated him immediately.
"Congratulations, handsome man. Do you want to redeem this award now?"
A customer won a big prize here, and the business in the store will definitely be booming in the next few days.
Another small fortune is about to be made!
Luffy himself was confused for a moment.
etc?
Why five thousand? ? ?
Wasn't the largest amount in the pile that he just saw with his clairvoyance fifty thousand? ? ?
Is there something fishy? ?
