Another One?
The owner was replacing a new one on the shelf when he heard Lin Yi’s words, and he wanted to laugh. Wasn’t he scared of being embarrassed? One for each person? You were just lucky before. Let’s see how you can hit it off the shelf with foam glue on!
Of course, he merely thought of it and kept quiet. When he turned around, his face was joyous, “Haha, then I hope that your wish will come true!”
The surrounding people heard of Lin Yi’s words and crowded around them curiously, wanting to know whether Lin Yi was bragging or not.
Lin Yi picked up another sandbag and seemed to throw it out casually without aiming or strength.The crowd was disappointed, but the owner was glad. They thought that Lin Yi already got a price and gave up on the rest. But something unexpected happened.
“Bang!”
It hit the Pleasant Goat toy which the owner just placed there. The toy didn’t even sway before it fell straight onto the floor.
“Huh?” The owner cried in despair, but it was immediately covered by the cheering of the crowd.
“That’s awesome! He got it again!”
“Owner, I want to play too! Give me ten sandbags!”
“Give me twenty! I don’t believe this! I, Li Tianzhu, am the luckiest person ever. How can this boy be luckier than me?”The owner passed the toy to Lin Yi with an aching heart but sighed in relief when he heard the crowd’s quests. He was happy that the promotion worked. It brought him so many customers!
Lin Yi passed the toy to Chu Mengyao.
“You should give it to Tang Yun,” Miss took it in embarrassment. Tang Yun was there, and Chu Mengyao didn’t think that she should take it. Chen Yushu already took one, and she shouldn’t take the other.
“It’s fine, there’s one sandbag left, and I’ll get another for her,” Lin Yi weighed the last sandbag in his hands.
The owner heard Lin Yi’s words and almost tripped over himself. Another one? He will lose so much money! How could he keep the business running like this?
However, he couldn’t stop Lin Yi from doing so since he would lose even more.He took money when others couldn’t hit the prize but refused to when customers got it? That would make him seem unreasonable!
The owner stood there, praying that Lin Yi wouldn’t get it again. If he lost three toys in a row, he would lose all his earnings for the past few days!
However, reality wouldn’t change because of his prayers. If it did, he would’ve become a millionaire already.
“Bang!”
The last sandbag hit the biggest fox toy without a doubt.
The owner almost had a heart attack and almost fainted. However, he’d be a joke if he actually did. He unwillingly passed the toy to Lin Yi and congratulated him, “Awesome! Three in a row!”
“So-so.” Lin Yi replied and passed the toy to Tang Yun, “This is for you.”
Compared to the other two, Tang Yun like the fox more. Seeing that Lin Yi passed it to her, she was delighted, “Thanks!”
“Shield bro, you are awesome! Can we get another ten?” Chen Yushu saw the owner forcing a smile on and laughed evilly.
“Alright, Shu, let’s looked at other things and give others a chance,” Chu Mengyao stopped after they got what they wanted. It was difficult for them to run small businesses like this. These toys together cost for than a thousand and the owner must felt despair right now!
However, Chu Mengyao wouldn’t give them any compensation since that was how the business operated. There were gains and losses. Her Daddy didn’t always earn.
Lin Yi didn’t continue and took the girls away.
The owner finally sighed in relief. There was no way he could keep his shoes dry when talking along the river. His foam glue wasn’t always useful! At least, he earned more customers now. The owner didn’t believe that there were people as strong as Lin Yi in the crowd! He would earn it all back!
As expected, more and more people joined the queue and the owner was happy. In an instant, a few hundred went into his wallet, yet only small toys around ten or twenty yuan were given away. The owner couldn’t hide his amusement.
However, it was too early to be happy. Another boy hit the price after Lin Yi left. However, it didn’t fall down.
The boy was obviously unhappy, “I also hit it. Why didn’t it fall down?”
“You hit it weakly. Look at how powerful the other boy was!”
“I’m weak? I’m a trainer at a gym. How could I be weaker than that boy?” The boy widened his eyes in disbelief, “Did you do something to it?”
“What can I do? That boy just got three in a row, everyone saw it!” The owner wasn’t confident.
“Exactly, why did he get three? I know why! Because you asked him to play along! You intentionally made us see it and attract us here!” The boy interrogated.
“Impossible! I don’t even know them!” The owner regained his confidence as he indeed didn’t know Lin Yi and the others.
“If that’s true, let me check if something’s wrong with that toy or not!” The boy obviously didn’t believe the owner and pushed him away, walking towards the shelf.
“You can’t go in there!” The owner attempted to stop the boy, but how could he win against a gym trainer? The boy pushed to the side easily and grabbed the toy. However, it didn’t move an inch.
He froze and pulled it even harder. However, the only thing he saw was a large amount of foam glue on the shelf! The boy laughed coldly, “Great, so that’s how you lie to people. There is so much glue on the shelf. Who could possibly hit it off the shelf from such a far distance? Aren’t you scamming us?”
The owner was dumbfounded. He had no way to hide it after he was exposed, and quickly explained, “Well… I also put foam glue on the shelf, but that person got it…”
