Chapter 166: I got the chair the first time



Chapter 166: I got the chair the first time

The eldest brother reached in and took out a piece of paper. The piece of paper was two fingers wide in Ling Yan'er's hand, but it was only a tiny thing in his hand.

He took it in his hand, looked at both sides, and found that there was indeed a number written on one side. After checking a few wooden signs, he asked, "Is this a chair?"

Ling Yan'er was surprised: "Are you so lucky?"

She stretched out her hand, and the eldest brother handed the note to Ling Yan'er. Ling Yan'er was very surprised when she saw the number 2 on the note. It turned out to be true.

Ling Yan'er placed the note in the money basket and then handed over a chair: "Your chair."

The eldest brother took the chair with some disbelief. He got a chair for two coppers. He took the chair with one hand and wanted to put it aside and take a few more silver coins.

Before he could even take out his silver, he was pushed aside by the enthusiastic crowd. Many people threw copper coins directly into the basket and said, "Let me draw two."

"I'll take five!"

Ling Yan'er was stunned and quickly said, "Come one by one, line up!"

She couldn't even see who threw the coins in!

Amidst Ling Yan'er's heart-wrenching cries, Ning Wushuang used her spiritual power to separate the people and put the few who had lost their coins at the front. She said to the first person in line, "You can draw twice and take two small slips of paper."

Ling Yan'er looked at Ning Wushuang, breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "Thank goodness I have you."

The older brother holding the chair wanted to squeeze in again, but the chair really restricted his ability. An acquaintance who was also squeezed outside said, "Brother Ji, why don't you go back and put the chair away before coming back? It doesn't look like the crowd here will disperse for a while."

The person who advised him seemed to have good intentions, but actually he wanted to persuade a competitor to leave. After all, he was able to draw a chair in one go. Judging from the workmanship of this chair, its value was higher than that of cloth. However, the thickness of the cloth was obviously ten meters. If he could draw it, it would be enough to make a new set of clothes for everyone in his family.

Of course he wanted to persuade the person who had already won something to leave.

Brother Ji thought what the other party said made sense, so he actually took the chair back. Seeing him go back, his younger brother asked, "Brother, didn't you go to help out? Why are you back?"

Seeing the chair he was holding, his younger brother clutched his chest and said sadly, "Brother, why did you buy such a nice chair?"

Their house is so bare, it's totally out of place for such a nice chair.

Brother Ji took one look at his younger brother's expression and knew what he was thinking. He said, "This chair costs two coppers."

"Brother, don't lie to me." The younger brother circled the chair a few times. "Such a good chair, two coppers, who are you trying to fool?"

"There was a lottery on the street next to your sister Yue'er. I spent two copper coins to win it." Brother Ji finished explaining and said, "If you don't believe me, you can go and see for yourself."

He put the chair into the house and was about to walk out, and his brother hurriedly followed him.

When the two of them came to Ling Yan'er again, the crowd surrounding Ling Yan'er not only did not decrease, but increased instead, but it was still relatively orderly.

Because Ning Wushuang used his spiritual power to separate the crowd, only those who held copper coins to draw a lottery could line up and enter, while those who wanted to watch the fun could only stand at a distance.

Even if they want to draw a lottery, only five people can get close at a time, and no more than one person can enter.

Only after these five people have been drawn can new people come in. Ling Yan'er didn't know how to praise Ning Wushuang for this action except to give him a thumbs up.

Dongfang Zichu was very disdainful of this because he could do it too.

Except for the one at the beginning, the others were basically two-copper and ten-copper goods. Few people even got soap.

In order to lower the value of the first and special prizes, Ling Yan'er asked Dongfang Zichu to cut another notebook, write a bunch of third prizes on it, and stuff the remaining blank notes into it.

The probability of a second-tier copper commodity is so high!

But even so, everyone's enthusiasm for the lottery has not diminished at all. After all, there is a guaranteed minimum, and the two bronze items are also the two bronze items that Ling Yan'er sold before. Even if they only draw a two-bronze item as a consolation prize, it is not a loss at all.

So everyone was very enthusiastic. Now that there were fewer people around, Ling Yan'er was also very happy. She asked Ning Wushuang: "Do you want to play for a while?"

Ning Wushuang glanced at the items on the table and said, "I'm not interested in any of these. Besides, your box isn't protected from divine sense. If I were to draw, my divine sense would be able to see what's inside. I'm probably not going to be as happy as the ones who drew."

Ning Wushuang could understand that Ling Yan'er's lottery was actually a kind of gambling, where she was trying to win a lot with a small investment, and it all depended on luck. If she could draw something of higher value, she would indeed feel more happy and satisfied.

But these things are of no use to her, and this box cannot be protected from spiritual sense. She can see every note inside, so she doesn't have the joy of winning the prize.

Ling Yan'er nodded: "I understand. I'll think about making a box that can protect against spiritual awareness."

After saying that, he grabbed Dongfang Zichu and said, "Go find a formation that can block spiritual consciousness and carve it on the box. When we have more things in the future, we can go to the cultivation market to draw prizes!"

She has actually collected some Qi-refining and foundation-building elixirs and magical instruments, but not as many as these.

If we hold a lottery, even if there are a few more people, it may not be enough.

But she can save some money. Oh, not just these finished products. Her warehouse also has some materials that she got from the secret realm before. If she adds them together and holds a lottery, she should be able to make something.

However, I have agreed to go back to school tomorrow, so I can’t participate in the lottery now. But I can participate next time I go out, or I can go directly to Lingyun City nearby to participate in the lottery.

I feel it should be quite interesting. She also wants to be a black-hearted businessman, drawing two hundred low-grade spirit stones at a time, raising the unit price, and it is completely possible to prepare less things!

It was decided, Ling Yan'er swung her legs happily.

Dongfang Zichu was directly arranged by Ling Yan'er, and did not refute. He just said: "I already know this formation, but your wooden box can't withstand such a formation. You need to find materials suitable for Qi Refining."

"How can an ordinary Wushuang string of beads be engraved with a formation?" Ling Yan'er asked, "Is it a problem with your skills? Reflect on it and find a way to engrave this formation on an ordinary box."

Dongfang Zichu was completely confused. Could he have done this just by thinking of something? Was it a problem with his skills? Was it because the material couldn't withstand it?

Ning Wushuang used an ordinary string of beads to engrave a formation. Of course, people can engrave a formation according to the materials and use whatever can be used, instead of specifying a formation like Ling Yan'er.
