Chapter 49: Both Pieces Of Intelligence Are Tangling With Welfare Lotteries!
Ring ring ring—
The mobile phone suddenly rang; it was a video call from Xu Li.
Today was a birthday for one of Xu Li’s best friends, and the three women ate their fill, drank their fill, and then went to KTV to sing for half the night.
Xu Li had already reported to Jiang Tao in advance and had sent many photos of them eating and singing.
Jiang Tao also knew both of Xu Li’s best friends inside and out.
One was a single, older unmarried woman, and the other was divorced and single.
It was a women-only gathering, so she would be home late; Jiang Tao didn’t need to worry about being cuckolded.
Jiang Tao put down the empty wine glass in his hand, and his finger swiped to answer the video call.
The screen on the mobile phone flickered, and Xu Li, wearing a light blue silk pajama set, appeared on the screen.
The smooth fabric of the pajamas shimmered under the soft light.
Her long hair was casually tied into a loose bun, with a few strands of hair falling onto her shoulders, adding a touch of lazy charm.
More than half of her fair, tender shoulders were exposed, and Xu Li was once again performing “Temptation of Home.”
The “battle robe” today was even more alluring than yesterday’s.
“Husband, does this pajama set look good?”
As Xu Li spoke, she placed the mobile phone on the bedside table and took a full-body shot.
She then turned in a circle on the ground, a complete 360-degree demonstration.
“Jing, eat Grandpa Jiang’s staff!”
“I won’t eat it.”
“By the way, Husband, have you asked Shan Yufei yet? You know Sun Na, she’s a really good person, I think they could try dating.”
After showcasing her pajama set, Xu Li hugged the phone and lay down on the bed, chattering away to start the conversation.
After talking about introducing her best friend to a date, they chatted about what they ate and drank.
They bumped into someone while shopping, and something happened when they went singing.
The couple chatted for over two hours on the video call before hanging up.
After ending the call, Jiang Tao glanced at the time on his mobile phone.
Unbeknownst to him, it was already 11:41 PM.
There were less than 20 minutes left before tomorrow’s intelligence could be refreshed.
Jiang Tao was naturally not sleepy; he lit a cigarette and waited for tomorrow’s intelligence refresh.
…
At the same time.
In a small one-bedroom apartment in Ping County.
A woman wearing fluffy pajamas and with messy, bird’s-nest hair was sitting in front of a computer, pulling her hair.
“I’m going crazy!”
“All day long, zero sales!”
“What kind of taste does Second Brother have!”
“What to do, what to do! That’s over 60,000 yuan! The manufacturer probably won’t accept returns!”
“Why did I answer his call, why did I help him do this evil deed~~”
At this moment, Jiang Bing deeply regretted helping her second brother find the source manufacturer.
She regretted even more that she had assisted him in ordering 10,000 Ultraman Hair Clips!
After buying the hair clips for her second brother, Jiang Bing listed them in her shop according to his instructions.
As a result, after a full day, the sales of that Ultraman Hair Clip were zero!
Thinking about the 10,000 Ultraman Hair Clips she still had in her hands, Jiang Bing’s head felt twice as big!
How could she have caused such a huge mess!
Jiang Bing no longer cared about the big red envelope her second brother had promised; she just hoped that he and his second sister-in-law wouldn’t argue during the Spring Festival.
The time in the bottom right corner of the computer reached midnight.
Just as Jiang Bing was about to get up to brush her teeth and go to bed, the shop assistant suddenly chimed, popping up a message.
“Huh? Two orders sold!”
Seeing the message from the shop assistant indicating that someone had ordered Ultraman Hair Clips, Jiang Bing’s eyes lit up.
She quickly picked up the mouse and rapidly opened her seller’s backend.
The Ultraman Hair Clips that Jiang Tao had stockpiled came in two colors, blue and pink, priced at 19.8 yuan each.
A customer had just ordered both a blue and a pink hair clip, with a total transaction amount of 39.6 yuan!
Ding dong!
While Jiang Bing was checking the previous order, another new order popped up.
“Another Ultraman Hair Clip?”
Seeing that the message from the buyer’s backend was still about Ultraman Hair Clips, Jiang Bing frowned slightly.
“Could it be that my idiot second brother, seeing that his hair clips aren’t selling, started brushing orders himself?”
Ding dong!
While Jiang Bing, the “Sherlock Holmes,” was deducing the truth, another message popped up on the backend.
As expected, it was another order for Ultraman Hair Clips!
Ding dong!
Ding dong!
Ding dong!
Looking at the constantly appearing order notifications, Jiang Bing finally realized that the situation might not be what she had imagined.
She opened the backend to check the order statistics.
In less than a minute, more than a dozen people had ordered Ultraman Hair Clips.
Total sales of 51 items, for a total amount of 1009.8 yuan!
Jiang Bing, who had been running her shop for over six years, had set a new record for the fastest sales of over a thousand yuan in a day!
In less than a minute, to be precise, 53 seconds, the shop’s sales volume exceeded a thousand yuan!
“What’s going on, why are we suddenly getting explosive orders!”
Just a few minutes ago, Jiang Bing was worried about the sales of the Ultraman Hair Clips.
And now, after just a few minutes, she was getting explosive orders!
Ding dong, ding dong, ding dong, ding dong—
Listening to the constant ding-dong sounds from the seller’s backend.
Jiang Bing instantly became as energetic as if she had been injected with stimulants, her sleepiness completely gone!
In her over six years of running the shop, she had never experienced a scene like this!
Sleep be damned!
Sister is going to witness history tonight!
…
Capital City, Xiao Shahe Urban Village, in Jiang Tao’s rental room.
When it turned midnight, Jiang Tao also turned off his mobile phone and opened the intelligence system panel, clicking refresh.
【 Today’s Intelligence 01】: Yesterday you lingered in the lottery shop in Xiao Shahe Village, obtaining related intelligence—
Among the half-book of scratch cards being sold in the lottery shop, one can scratch a grand prize of 20,000 yuan!
【 Today’s Intelligence 02】: Yesterday you and Xu Li chatted about the prize Sun Na won at the company’s annual meeting, obtaining related intelligence—
The 10-yuan lottery ticket that Sun Na won will have a grand prize of 3,000 yuan drawn tomorrow!
【 Note】: The host can replicate Sun Na’s winning lottery ticket at most 10 times.
Exceeding this multiplier will cause the winning number to change due to uncontrollable factors.
…
“One is a scratch card, and the other is a lottery ticket; today’s two pieces of intelligence are both related to welfare lotteries!”
Seeing the two latest pieces of intelligence refreshed today, Jiang Tao’s eyes lit up!
Last night, when Xu Li was chatting with Jiang Tao, she mentioned that Sun Na was quite unlucky this year.
Sun Na’s company had its annual meeting, and Sun Na only won a 10-yuan consolation prize and bought five sets of Double Color Ball tickets.
Who would have thought that this consolation prize would win, and furthermore, it was the third prize!
It was fortunate that it was the third prize.
If she had won the first prize, Sun Na’s company would probably have sued her to reclaim it.
“It’s a pity; I can only bet 10 times the amount.”
“If there were no limit to the multiplier, this single piece of intelligence would be enough for financial freedom!”
“Tomorrow, I’ll have Xu Li ask Sun Na for her lottery numbers and bet 10 times the amount; this money is like picking it up for free.”
“The scratch card at the lottery shop…”
“I need to go scratch it early tomorrow morning; if I go late and someone else scratches it, I’ll be foolish.”
“It looks like I’ll have to take another leave tomorrow! But this leave is worth it!”
After analyzing the two pieces of intelligence, Jiang Tao had a plan.
Turn off the lights and sleep!
