Gao Peng didn't want Zhou Tianmin and the others to know about this. After all, it wasn't very honorable.
Moreover, his identity was sensitive. If more people knew about this, they would inevitably think that the referees were cheating or something. He was not afraid of being slandered, but he couldn't stand people's guesses. Gao Peng also thought that it was best to have less trouble.
Gao Peng told Xiao Huang the location of the purchase and the outcome of the match. After that, he hung up the phone.
Xiao Huang put the old phone into his bag and stood there for a few minutes before he came back to his senses. He lowered his head and looked at the crumpled stack of notes in his small red envelope.
'Is Master eyeing my little treasury?' Xiao Huang fell into deep thought.
The Happy Lottery was a branch on Zijing Road in the Zihai District of the Imperial City. Near Zijing Road was a villa area. Walking up the street, there were some luxurious manors on the mountain. The people who lived there were either rich or noble. Therefore, even though this branch was usually quiet, it didn't have to worry about sales.
The Happy Lottery was a very famous chain in the Huaxia region. It had a semi-official background, so it was relatively official.
For the people of the Huaxia region, no matter what it was, as long as it was official, it would always be more useful.
The store wasn't big, but the interior decoration was quite exquisite. The cool air conditioner was set at a constant temperature, and a wooden screen separated the store into two parts. Inside was a lounge with a sofa and a projector on the wall. One could watch some television programs. For example, the World Youth Monster Trainer Competition that had been very popular recently.
As long as it was a competition, there would be gambling involved.
In the lounge, a few people were sitting on the sofa, watching the competition on the projector.
"Hey, did you guys know that Gao Peng lives near us?" A man with thick eyebrows and big eyes wearing a black printed short-sleeved shirt on the sofa on the left cleared his throat and pointed at Gao Peng, who was acting as the referee on the show.
"He lives near us?" a man beside him said in surprise.
"Of course, but he lives on the mountain." The man laughed, picked up the teacup on the table, and gently blew on it. Then, he took a sip.
The man called out to the young man sitting in front of the ticket machine, "Xiao Chen, there's no more tea in the teapot. Take some of the tea leaves I left here last time and boil them."
The young man who was sitting in front of the machine and playing with his phone quickly put down his phone and went to make tea. Although President He was not the owner of the shop, even his own boss had to be respectful to him. President He often came to buy lottery tickets and was generous with his money. Whenever he bought, it would be a big order.
As soon as Xiao Chen got up, he saw the curtain at the door of the shop suddenly shake. A customer had arrived.
Xiao Chen looked over and saw a little kid in a yellow down jacket walk in.
Such a young child came to buy lottery tickets. Lottery tickets could not be sold to minors.
Xiao Chen was about to speak when he suddenly felt that something was wrong. He rubbed his eyes and looked straight at Xiao Huang.
A duck?! A duck buying lottery tickets?
Then, he saw the red shoulder bag that Xiao Huang was carrying.
This should be a familiar with a master.
Maybe it was helping its master buy lottery tickets. He had seen this kind of thing before. Some people were lazy and let their familiars go out to buy groceries, snacks, cigarettes, lighters, lottery tickets …
"Wait a moment, I'll be right there." Xiao Chen smiled apologetically at Xiao Huang. Boss He was a big customer, so he could not neglect him.
After making tea for Boss He, Xiao Chen walked to the lottery machine. "Do you want to buy lottery tickets?"
Xiao Huang tilted its head. It did not understand what Xiao Chen was saying, so it took out a small phone from its bag and showed Xiao Chen the message on the phone.
"Bet on Zhang Yi from the Huaxia region to win the seventh round of the second round. Bet on him winning within ten minutes."
Bet on Zhang Yi winning, and bet on him winning within ten minutes? Xiao Chen was a little surprised. This was a dark horse.
Zhang Yi's opponent was Yagyuu Murata from the Nihon region. Yagyuu Murata was the number one in the Nihon region, so he was very popular. In the last round, he had defeated his opponent with an absolute advantage. Zhang Yi was ranked ninth in the Huaxia region, and he did not do well in the last round. Therefore, the odds of winning this round were 1: 16, which was very high. The odds of winning within ten minutes were even higher, which meant that it was almost impossible.
"How much do you want to buy?" Xiao Chen asked Xiao Huang. As if he was afraid that Xiao Huang would not understand, he took out an LMB (Alliance currency) and waved it in front of Xiao Huang.
Xiao Huang swallowed its saliva, then lowered its head and flipped through its small red envelope. It took out a stack of crumpled Alliance currency and placed it on the table.
After a moment of hesitation, Xiao Huang suddenly reached out and hid another Alliance currency in its bag. It reluctantly looked at the remaining money on the table, then closed its eyes and pushed it all away.
Gao Peng once told me that if I took a gamble, a bicycle would turn into a motorcycle; if I took a gamble, a motorcycle would turn into a Land Rover. In the future, I will be able to eat good food and drink spicy wine every meal. I can eat three small dried fish. I can eat one, throw one away, and use the last one to scare Silly.
Xiao Chen was stunned for a moment, then lowered his head to count the money.
After counting it three times, Xiao Chen finally confirmed and asked, "A total of 5129 Alliance currency. Do you want to bet all of it?"
Xiao Huang did not understand. He stared blankly at Xiao Chen.
After asking twice, Xiao Chen reluctantly accepted the money, printed a lottery ticket, and handed it to Xiao Huang.
Xiao Huang took the lottery ticket and looked at it carefully. His eyes were dazzled, but he did not understand anything.
After putting the lottery ticket in his bag, Xiao Huang clumsily left the lottery house.
At 4: 30 in the afternoon, the seventh round of the competition began.
Li Yu was the referee for this round. In many people's eyes, there was no suspense in this round.
However, the final result surprised countless people. In less than ten minutes, the battle ended. The loser was Yagyuu Village.
"This Zhang Yi is a dark horse. He's an Epic-grade Commander-tier familiar, and he's also a Fire-type familiar with strong offensive abilities. Yagyuu Village's strongest familiar is a Wood-type familiar, but it was completely suppressed." Gao Peng knew the outcome of the battle from the beginning.
In front of the television, a group of familiars sat on the sofa. To be precise, all the familiars except for Da Zi and Dumb were sitting on the sofa.
Xiao Huang did not understand the rules, but when it received a call from Gao Peng, it immediately jumped off the sofa happily. "Dried fish! Dried fish! So many dried fish! "It kept circling around the sofa.
Dumb looked at Xiao Huang in confusion. It could not understand what could make a duck so happy other than fruit juice.
It took out a bottle of fruit juice from its space and let Abba bite off the cap. Then it opened the fridge and skillfully took out a straw from the fridge. It happily took a sip of the fruit juice.
