Chapter 148: How to Draw a Lottery Intelligently

“But I’m fairly curious why Boss Yuan would raise such delicate tiny creatures?” The man turned his head facing to Yuan Zhou, carrying a faint curiosity in his sight .

“Somebody sent them to me,” Yuan Zhou said without even raising his head .

“Pardon?” The man didn’t really understand it .

“Humm,” Yuan Zhou nodded affirmatively .

“Then why did you refuse to receive my fish,” the man indicated that he would claim the justice for his fish .

“The sergestes are easier to be raised,” Yuan Zhou revealed an affirmative look .

“How is it possible? Fish are easier to be raised than these sergestes . They have stricter requirements concerning the temperature, PH value and oxygenic content of the water,” the man walked up to Yuan Zhou and said excitedly .

“I naturally have others to help take care of them for me . ” Yuan Zhou directly revealed the true reason . He didn’t need to attend to them himself, thus it was, of course, easier for him to raise the sergestes .

“…” the man instantly felt that Yuan Zhou’s words did make sense . If it was that way, then surely his fish was more difficult to be raised .

Sigh, this simple-minded man had already followed Yuan Zhou’s thinking .

“What’s behind the door?” Yin Ya suddenly watched behind the door and asked .

“Yeah, there seems to be something behind the door . This small fruit doesn’t seem to be inside of the fish tank . ” The boy almost pressed his face against the glass, observing carefully .

“Behind the door is a pub,” Yuan Zhou crossed his arms against his chest and said indifferently .

“A pub? So you have liquor now?” Yin Ya was also very curious . In her opinion, although such a popular restaurant only served drinks now, it would inevitably serve liquor in the future . However, never had she expected that to happen so quickly .

“Yes, it’s behind you guys,” Yuan Zhou signaled that the liquor had been added to the price list on the wall behind them .

At that time, Wu Hai finally finished his two bowls of Clear Broth Noodle Soup and comfortably heaved a sigh before starting to talk, “Boss Yuan, serve me a bottle of the liquor, please . I also want to savor the bamboo liquor . “

Yuan Zhou gestured to Mu Xiaoyun and soon she carried a small box up . On one side of the box, there was a hole, from which one hand could pass through . The box looked like the kind of lucky draw box in the supermarkets that allowed customers to draw the lottery .

“What is she doing?” Wu Hai became confused .

“There are only 3 pots of liquor every day . Only those who draw the red table tennis balls will have the fortune to drink it,” Yuan Zhou brought out his rule for drinking liquor .

“Boss Yuan, it’s not sincere and kind of you to make that rule . A pot about 200ml is only but a mouthful . Even 3 pots are not enough for me,” Wu Hai refuted at once .

“You’ll understand after you drink it,” Yuan Zhou said with a deep feeling .

“You say so every time . How many times can one draw the lottery each day?” Wu Hai knew that Yuan Zhou never broke his rules and thus had to ask something else .

“One could have only one opportunity each day . ” For such questions, Yuan Zhou basically answered them whenever being asked .

“How many balls are there inside the box?” Although Wu Hai was in the arts industry, he still knew a little about probability .

“50 balls in total . ” Taking a look at Wu Hai, Yuan Zhou had a feeling that this guy wanted to do something unusual again .

“For the balls that were drawn, are they returned back to the box or taken out?” Thinking of another possibility, Wu Hai asked cautiously .

“They’ll be taken out,” Yuan Zhou answered affirmatively .

“That’d be good . Come on . Who wants to try? It’s free,” Wu Hai directly took over Mu Xiaoyun’s job by carrying the box to the customers, letting them draw the lottery .

“Liquor made by Boss Yuan truly deserved a try . ” The father who had brought his daughter here for the meal last time was also one of the regular customers now . With great interest, he prepared to give it a try .

“Let me try,” the refreshing and clean boy immediately responded .

“Boss Yuan, If I draw the winning lottery, can I invite somebody to drink the liquor together at night?” the boy asked while drawing the lottery .

“Sure . It’s about 200ml per pot . You can have one table, one pot and one cup,” Yuan Zhou told the boy what he offered .

“Then I feel assured . Otherwise, I wouldn’t be able to afford it even if I won . That’d be frustrating,” the boy said with a smile .

“You kid can’t drink liquor . Concentrate on drawing the lottery,” the reason why Wu Hai let the boy draw the lottery first was that he wanted others to draw as many white balls as possible . This boy, nevertheless, surprisingly declared that he wanted the red ball .

“Uncle, you are so cunning . However, I have always had good luck . ” The boy gave him a cunning smile and then took out his hand .

He clenched his hands tightly without revealing anything . All the people around stared at his hand curiously .

“Come on, boy . Don’t act mysterious . Hurry up, show the ball to us,” Wu Hai looked at his hand again and again .

“Don’t worry . I have to clench it for a while, just in case it’s the red ball,” unhurriedly, the boy really continued clenching it for a few seconds .

“I thought you really have the good luck to get a red one . ” Once Wu Hai discovered the ball was white, he immediately turned on his mocking mode .

“This uncle seems to be not convinced, huh? Better you try by yourself?” The boy wasn’t actually frustrated . Instead, he continued squabbling with Wu Hai .

“Of course I have to slowly wait,” Wu Hai didn’t conceal his purpose and then began to carry the box to the next person .

“Then let me try,” while the father was speaking, he began to draw the lottery . Just within two seconds, he got the ball, his actions being quick and accurate .

“Wow, it’s the red ball . What a good luck he’s got!” Yin Ya shouted in surprise . It was truly rare to get a red ball for the first try .

“It seems that one of the 3 pots belongs to me now . ” The father revealed a faint smile on his solemn face .

“You really have a good luck,” Wu Hai grumbled .

“Ha Ha . Boss Yuan, do I need to pay first?” the father took out his wallet happily and prepared to pay .

“Humm, internet transfer is accepted . ” Yuan Zhou nodded .

“Wonderful . I’ll do the internet transfer . As a matter of fact, I don’t have so much cash with me . By the way, please serve me a bowl of Clear Broth Noodle Soup . I will pay for both together,” the man put away his wallet and took his phone to make the internet transfer .

“Ok, one moment, please,” Yuan Zhou took a glance at the electronic bank slip and again at the several customers who were still drawing the lottery out there . Then he turned around going back to the kitchen and began to prepare the dishes .

“I want to have a try, too,” Yin Ya didn’t like drinking . Even when there was a gathering, she never drank . However, curiosity was the human nature . She’d rather take it as a test of her luck . Of course, if she really had that luck to get the red ball, Yuan Zhou’s liquor truly deserved a taste .

“No problem . Pretty lady, you draw first,” seeing one of the red balls had been drawn, Wu Hai was a little worried, but he still insisted on his thoughts and hence carried the box up to Yin Ya .

“Zi Zi,” a snowy table-tennis ball appeared in the slender and exquisite hand of Yin Ya .

“It seems that I expectedly don’t have any good luck . Better to have my breakfast, otherwise I will be late for work,” Yin Ya regrettably looked at the interior surroundings behind the sergestes wall landscape and then took a seat before ordering her dishes .

Having heaved a sigh of relief, Wu Hai continued to tempt others to draw white balls . Everyone that came for breakfast was enticed to draw the lottery . However, those who drew the lottery were the people who were really interested in drinking liquor . Nonetheless, customers taking breakfast here were mostly girls . Not too many of them drew the lottery throughout the entire morning, only about a dozen or so .

“Business hours have ended now . Please come at noontime,” Yuan Zhou said to the remaining several customers that were still waiting in line behind .

“I come to the restaurant every day to test my luck but Boss Yuan is still as merciless as usual,” a regular customer said with a pity .

The customers knew, as a matter of fact, that Yuan Zhou would close the restaurant at this period of the day . However, he had just finished a two-day break, hadn’t he? What if he suddenly decided to lengthen the business hours?”

“Don’t play around anymore . Come back at noon,” Yuan Zhou looked at Wu Hai who was still carrying the box and not letting go .

“I have really helped you quite earnestly . Why don’t you directly give me one of the pots? See, nobody would know about that,” Wu Hai went up to Yuan Zhou and said shamelessly .

“No way . Come at noon,” Yuan Zhou squarely refused .

“What a merciless man! I remained hungry for two full days because of your renovations . Haven’t you ever thought of compensating me?” Wu Hai tried to persuade Yuan Zhou with a trick .

“Now there are totally 32 balls left in the box and only two red balls therein . Do you wanna try your luck?” Yuan Zhou straightforwardly disregarded Wu Hai’s trick . He took the box and then asked Wu Hai .

“No, no, no . I will wait for another 5 persons to draw the lottery . Until then, I will surely get a red one,” with a firm look, Wu Hai refused Yuan Zhou’s proposal .
