Daily Intelligence System: Financial Independence-Chapter 284 - 156: Old Sun’s Inheritance Distribution
After the excitement.
Xu Li jogged back to the bedroom and came out with a bank card.
In her words, a bank card is closely related to money.
Using a bank card to scratch a lottery ticket increases the chance of winning a prize.
Although there’s no scientific basis for it, there is a metaphysical one!
The scratch-off ticket Jiang Tao brought back is called "Ten Times Good Luck."
Its gameplay is quite simple.
There’s a "winning number" in the lower left corner.
If you scratch off the covering film and any of "my numbers" matches the "winning number", you win the bonus marked on the far-right side.
If you scratch a "10" in the "my numbers" area, you can win ten times the bonus corresponding to that number!
The winning bonuses can be accumulated.
Last year, there was a time when Jiang Tao pinned his hopes on the lottery, dreaming of getting rich overnight.
When he went to the lottery shop to buy tickets, he sometimes bought a scratch-off to test his luck.
His favorite was the "Ten Times Good Luck" type of scratch-off.
He even won a grand prize of 500 yuan once.
If you don’t have connections with the director, it’s unlikely to win the big prize in Double-color Ball.
But there are indeed many people who scratch off grand prizes on scratch-offs.
Of course, whether the past reports are true or have any insider stories is unverifiable.
But today’s ticket, Jiang Tao can be 100% sure it’s real, he truly isn’t some director’s relative.
"Come on, darling, let me give you some blessing~"
Jiang Tao smiled, took Xu Li’s hand, kissed it on the back, and rubbed it back and forth.
"Let’s get to it!"
"Alright!"
Xu Li nervously scratched off the "winning number" in the lower left corner, it was a "21".
Then, she started scratching row by row from top to bottom.
The bonus for the first row of "my numbers" was 30 yuan, all a bust!
The second row had 100 yuan, another complete loss!
The third row, still nothing.
Seeing the prize amount for the fourth row was 1000, Xu Li instantly felt like it was a lost cause again.
She had played scratch-offs before and knew some of its patterns.
The bigger the prize amount at the back, the smaller the chance of winning, and vice versa. 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚
If all the amounts at the back were 10 yuan.
Then this scratch-off ticket would at least yield 100 yuan in winnings!
"Honey, why don’t you take over... Seems like my luck isn’t good today."
Xu Li scratched half of the scratch-off, not even winning 10 yuan, feeling a bit deflated and no longer wanted to scratch.
As she spoke, she handed her bank card to Jiang Tao, wanting him to finish the rest.
"It’s not over yet, there’s still a lot left, keep going."
Jiang Tao didn’t take the bank card from Xu Li; instead, he encouraged her to keep scratching with a smile.
"Alright then!"
Xu Li adjusted her mood and started scratching again.
Seeing the prize amount for the 5th row was 10 yuan, Xu Li’s eyes lit up!
Maybe this row would win!
But... once again, she was disappointed, still no "21"!
The sixth and seventh rows were also complete busts.
When she saw the prize amount of 400,000 scratched out on the eighth row.
Xu Li just gave up and didn’t bother scratching the cover on the front.
Although everyone wants to win 400,000, when you really scratch out this prize, everyone subconsciously feels it’s impossible.
Jiang Tao gulped watching, his Adam’s apple moving.
It was also his first time scratching out such a big prize in a scratch-off!
Fuzi really delivered!
At this moment, Xu Li’s attention was all on the scratch-off, not noticing the change in Jiang Tao’s expression.
She took a deep breath and continued scratching the ninth and tenth rows below.
As expected, there were no surprises, another complete loss.
"It’s over, I got my hopes up for nothing."
Xu Li finished scratching the last row without getting a "21".
She sullenly put the bank card back into the pocket of her tight jeans, ready to end today’s fight.
Jiang Tao looked at Xu Li and said with a smile:
"There’s still one row left unscratched, maybe that’s the winner."
"Honey, you really dream big, that’s 400,000 we’re talking about."
Xu Li laughed at Jiang Tao’s words, her frustration vanishing instantly, and felt relieved.
It’s just a 10-yuan scratch-off anyway.
Even if she didn’t win a penny, it was just a loss of 10 yuan.
Not worth getting upset over such a trivial matter.
"What’s wrong with dreaming, you can’t just throw it away unscratched."
"Better safe than sorry, what if it wins."
Jiang Tao looked at the scratch-off in his hand, gleaming with a dark golden light, his gaze growing fervent.
"True, then you scratch it."
Xu Li said, handing her bank card to Jiang Tao.
"Let’s scratch it together, combine our luck."
Jiang Tao didn’t reach out to take the bank card but directly grabbed her slender, fair hand.
As Jiang Tao held her hand, Xu Li glanced at him, her smile even more brilliant and beautiful.
"Yes, okay!"
Xu Li giggled and nodded, and the two started scratching from the front.
The first number scratched out was "23", no match.
"Oh no! Just missed it! If it were 2 less, we’d be rich!"
The difference between 23 and 21 is tiny, yet the distinction is huge.
After a moment of regret, Xu Li continued to scratch further.
Soon, the second-to-last number was also scratched out.
"21!!!!"
Seeing the number scratched out, Xu Li gasped.
Her eyes opened wide, peach blossom eyes full of disbelief, covering her mouth with her hand!
"Honey, we really hit the jackpot!"
"Oh my god! Am I dreaming?"
Xu Li closed her eyes, rubbed them hard, and opened them again!
