Chapter 729: Bingo
There were already quite a few people lined up in front of a clothing store on the street, with a sign in front of them.
On top of the sign were a few large words: “If you press and get 7:13, you will get a 500 yuan shopping voucher.”
When you got a little closer, you could see the flas.h.i.+ng numbers in the middle of the sign.
It was a pity that as one after another went up, they just couldn’t press the right number.
The crowd made a pitiful sound from time to time, and those who failed could only go back in line.
Those who were reluctant could only continue to queue. Anyway, there was no fee to play. If one got the right number, it was free money!
The young people who came out to shop were not in a hurry, so they played as much as they wanted.
“Let’s go over there,” Xia Xibei said.
“You want to play that?” s.h.i.+ Shuhang looked troubled. “But it looks… Not very easy.”
Even if he hadn’t played this, he knew that it must not be that easy. The store was trying to attract people and definitely wouldn’t give away money to everyone.
A few minutes later, more people failed.
“Let’s try it.”
Xia Xibei took the lead and walked over.
The two together made too big a target, so they were separated by several positions.
Although they stood out in height, they were ordinary-looking. Plus, everyone was focused on the sign, so they did not get spotted.
After waiting for a few minutes, it was Xia Xibei’s turn.
She pressed the start b.u.t.ton and watched the time on it flash by quickly.
At just over six seconds, she tapped the b.u.t.ton.
7:10.
“Ugh!”
“A pity!”
“It was so close!”
The crowd in the back let out a lamentable sigh.
It was so close!
Xia Xibei did not care and continued to the back of the line.
After a while, it was s.h.i.+ Shuhang’s turn.
He pressed the start b.u.t.ton, then held his breath and slapped the pause b.u.t.ton quickly.
8:01.
This number was so bad that no one had any special reaction.
s.h.i.+ Shuhang’s expression did not look too good and he went back to the back of the line.
The line continued to move forward and more and more people lined up.
If they didn’t win, they’d have to wait in line even longer after that.
In the line, s.h.i.+ Shuhang was a bit anxious.
If they wasted their time here, how could they make money?
He didn’t know what the others were doing right now, but what a pity if they were overtaken! They had managed to maintain their advantage until now!
Suddenly, a loud cheer rang out.
“Bingo!”
“Bingo!”
He turned his head to look at the red “7:13” on the sign, which was very clear.
Someone really hit the number! The store did not fake the machine!
This was the first thought that came to s.h.i.+ Shuhang’s mind.
The second thought was: who was so powerful?
Taking a closer look, his eyes widened in shock.
It was Xia Xibei!
The others gathered around Xia Xibei happily, exclaiming all sorts of things.
Even the staff was surprised.
This thing has been out for two days, and she was the first one to win!
Her win made it so that it gave everyone more confidence.
People didn’t have time to gather around and admire her, and there was a long line again.
Xia Xibei walked out and got a 500 yuan voucher from the staff.
This voucher was not limited to a purchase amount and could be directly exchanged for 500 yuan of products.
s.h.i.+ Shuhang also tried a second time but did not win.
After coming out and looking at the long line, he could only give up helplessly.
“What’s next?” he asked.
“We sell this.”
Xia Xibei quickly found a customer in the store and exchanged this 500 voucher for 450 cash.
