Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

These people treated this place as their home. Apart from eating, drinking, and shitting, they would essentially spend their day here studying the numbers. Some of them were even obsessed.

They sought the help of nature’s forces.

To put it bluntly, these people wanted to earn money without putting in any effort.

The nature of the lottery itself was to gamble.

Moreover, the probability of winning small prizes was extremely high.

Those who had slightly better luck could win around 50 yuan with a 10 yuan scratch-and-win lottery.

However, in such a situation, most people would choose to buy more.

Even if there were a few rational people who would stop buying after a win, they would inevitably try their luck the next time they came by a lottery store.

Ultimately, they would become addicted after a few cycles.

It was not Yang Dianfeng’s first time coming to such a place.

People would tend to try out their luck when they were frustrated.

Yang Dianfeng was no exception.

Although god seemed to have prevented Yang Dianfeng from falling into this addiction.

He could only win one out of ten times, and it was only one or two yuan.

If everyone had such a winning rate, the lottery station would not survive.

As usual, when he came to the lottery station, no one looked at him.

Why waste time looking at him when they could use that time to study the lottery?

“Ah! There’s definitely no problem this time.”

Suddenly, a burly man beside Yang Dianfeng exclaimed.

“F*ck, how did I end up here to earn money?”

“Sigh, it’s really hard for the poor to earn money.”

The people around laughed loudly.

Such a situation happened every day.

This lottery station was basically partially a shelter.

Yang Dianfeng could understand why there were so many people here.

That was because previously, this lottery station had a five million yuan grand prize.

Such a thing was not common. Most of the lottery fans treated this place as a treasure ground for feng shui.

Moreover, some lottery fans even joined forces to invite feng shui masters to look at the feng shui at the station.

They said that within ten years, there would be another grand prize winner.

Given that, everyone felt that they would be the grand prize winner.

At the counter.

Yang Dianfeng was prepared to try his luck.

Scratch-and-win tickets.

The winning rate was 50%.

Most first-timers could play five or six times for free before their money would be swallowed by the lottery.

Though these lotteries were only ten or twenty yuan a ticket, but there was no big prize.

The biggest prize was only one million.

However, to win a one million yuan scratch-and-win ticket was more difficult than winning five million in the lottery.

At least people have heard of others winning a five million lottery ticket.

One million scratch-off tickets were very rare.

“Little brother, are you here to buy a scratch-and-win ticket? You can choose anything you like.”

A fat man said.

Yang Dianfeng did not stand on ceremony. He chose 40 to 50 five yuan tickets.

He chose again. He took about 100 ten yuan tickets.

Next, he chose about 40 to 50 tickets that were worth 20 yuan.

The surroundings slowly quieted down.

“F*ck, what is this kid doing?”

“I don’t know? He can’t be here to pick a fight, right? The background of this lottery station is not something we can afford to provoke.”

Even the fat boss looked at Yang Dianfeng with an unfriendly expression and said, “Brother, are you done choosing?”

Yang Dianfeng did not even raise his head. He started to choose the remaining tickets that were 50 yuan each.

He chose more than 20 tickets.

After putting all the lottery tickets together, there were about 300 tickets.

He threw them on the table and said, “That’s all, what’s the total for these?”

The fatty was stunned.

He really was here to buy lottery tickets. He had no intention to look for trouble.

He immediately put on a smiling face and said, “Big brother, give me a second. Let me calculate.”

After a quick calculation, the tickets totaled up to 8,000 yuan.

Yang Dianfeng was straightforward, he did not even bother to verify it. He immediately started to scratch.

Shua shua shua.

“This kid must have spent a lot of money.

“The winning rate for this scratch-and-win ticket is 50%.

“However, that only applies for the five yuan tickets. Moreover, he’s scratching them consecutively, it’s unlikely for him to win.

“The end goal is just to earn some money.”

“Look at how he picked them randomly. I doubt he can even earn any money, he’d end up losing money instead.”

“Oh, my luck is pretty good. I won a 20 yuan prize.”

At this moment, Yang Dianfeng had won 20 yuan after scratching a five yuan ticket.

Although this amount was a little out of the ordinary, it was still considered normal.

Generally, the first round of scratching five yuan tickets would either win you ten yuan or five yuan.

20 yuan was rare, but it could happen.

“Hmm, he looks like someone who has won the lottery before. Maybe it was a few hundred or thousand yuan from a ten yuan scratch-and-win ticket.”

“Then, he got carried away.”

“Wow, my luck is really good. I won another ten yuan.”

Yang Dianfeng said loudly and happily.

He had just scratched two tickets, no one found anything out of the ordinary yet.

After all, Yang Dianfeng had bought more than 300 tickets with different denominations.

There were people who bought lottery tickets, and there were also people who bought large denominations. However, very few people would purchase this many scratch-and-win tickets at once.

“Brother, are you hoping to win one million yuan from the scratch-and-win tickets?”

Someone mocked from behind.

Yang Dianfeng did not even turn his head and said, “This big brother understands me. Today, the big prize will go to my house.”

“Hahahaha.”

Everyone in the hall burst into laughter.

“This kid, did he buy a lottery ticket after his brain was kicked by a donkey?”

“Big brother, are you a donkey?”

“You…”

“Ah, another win. Ten yuan again, how lucky.”

Young Dianfeng interrupted the man behind him who was about to lose his temper.

“Hmph, you’re going to end up needing to pay with your underwear, then you will need to walk out of here naked. Let’s see what you have to say then.”

“I’m sorry man. I’m not a loser. I’m rich. Do you see the Big G at the door? That’s mine.

“If I run out of money, I’ll just sell the car.”

“Boo!”

Everyone booed.

“This brother is boasting, who drives a Big G to buy lottery.”

“Look at him, all his clothes don’t even round up to 1000 yuan, but he’s saying that the Big G is his, isn’t it weird? Look at how arrogant the owner of the Big G is, he even parked the car right at the doorway.”

They did not believe that Yang Dianfeng drove a car like that.

Yang Dianfeng just patiently scratched his tickets.

“Ah, my luck is really good. I won another 40 yuan ticket.”

Although the fat boss’s smile was a little forced, it was not like he had never encountered such a lucky person before.

“Little brother, your luck is really good. Buy some lottery tickets later.”

“No problem,” Yang Dianfeng said.

“This kid’s luck is pretty good.”

“Big brother, have you tried playing scratch-and-win tickets before? If you’re lucky enough, you can win some money if you scratch about ten tickets.”

“Ah, how lucky, I won ten yuan again.

“Ah, I’m so happy that I’m about to faint. I actually won 20 yuan again.

“Ah, another 50 yuan. Am I that lucky today?

“Later, no matter how much money I win, I’ll still buy the lottery ticket.”

Everyone was in a daze.

Was this for real? He had consecutively scratched about 20 five-yuan tickets already, right?
