Who has the choice after being reborn? I want them all

Chapter 12 Unexpected “Grand Prize”

"Yes." The male boss stood up and took out a bunch of colorful scratch-off prizes from the glass counter.

"This lottery is new this year to celebrate the Olympics. The maximum prize is 25. You might be lucky and win a big prize."

"Then I'll lend you your good advice, boss." Li Zhe said with a smile.

"This Passionate Dream is 10 yuan a piece. There are also 5 yuan and 3 yuan. Which one do you want?" The male boss said and took out two more stacks of lottery tickets from the counter.

"Are there many people buying this Dingguasha? Has it won any big prizes?" Li Zhe asked seemingly casually.

"There are a lot of people buying it. This Olympic series is very popular and has a high winning rate. People often win small prizes worth hundreds or even thousands. There is also a young man about your age who won 3000 from me."

"Why don't you buy a few tickets of Passionate Dreams first? This one has a grand prize of 25 yuan." the male boss encouraged.

Li Zhe ignored the lottery boss's lies, as long as he was sure that the 25 grand prize was still there.

"How many copies of this passionate dream do you have here?"

"This pack contains 60 tickets, and there are more than three packs... there are probably more than 210 tickets." The male boss counted the lottery tickets and said.

"Then I'll buy 10 cards to try out first. Can I choose by myself?"

Li Zhe has read some scratch-off lottery techniques on the Internet these days, and plans to try them first. Maybe he will get lucky and win the 25 grand prize.

"Okay, you can pick whatever you want."

Hearing that Li Zhe wanted to buy something for 100 yuan, the male boss suddenly became very enthusiastic.

The scratch-off prize commission is the highest, above 10%, which means that if Li Zhe buys a 100-yuan lottery ticket, the lottery boss will earn at least 10 yuan.

Li Zhe opened an unopened scratch-off ticket, selected 6 tickets from the middle, and then selected two tickets from the front and two from the back, and then started to scratch the lottery tickets.

The first one won 10 yuan, the second one missed, the third one won 20 yuan, the fourth one missed... the sixth one won 30 yuan, the seventh one missed... the ninth one won 50 yuan...

It seems that this tip for scratching prizes is really useful. At least I got my money back and made a little profit, but it might just be pure luck.

Li Zhe thought so and scratched the last lottery ticket, and then he was stunned.

"What, did you win the grand prize?"

After the male boss noticed it, he looked over and said in surprise: "Won five thousand? You are so lucky!"

Don’t think that 5000 yuan is not much. A scratch-off prize of 5000 yuan is considered a big prize. The probability of winning is tens of thousands of times. Even if you empty out more than a dozen lottery stores, you may not win even once.

This "grand prize" of 5000 yuan was a complete surprise for Li Zhe and was not within his expectations.

Seeing someone winning the big prize, two old lottery players immediately came over, their words full of envy.

"This guy won five thousand?"

"Young man, you are really lucky!"

The young man was also very enthusiastic and said to the male boss: "Give me 10 of these tops."

"I'll buy a few too, to take advantage of this guy's good luck." An old lottery player also said with a smile.

"I'll also buy a few to play with," another old lottery player also said.

"Okay." The smile on the male boss's face became even bigger, and he was about to get lottery tickets for the young man and others.

"Wait a minute." Li Zhe interrupted.

"I want all of this passionate dream."

Then, he said to the young man and two old lottery players: "I'm sorry, why don't you buy something else?"

The young man looked a little unhappy, but he didn't say anything.The male boss smoothed things over and said, "It's not bad to compete for the first place. The maximum prize is 10 yuan, and it's an affordable price of 5 yuan a piece."

An old lottery player tentatively said to Li Zhe: "Young man, why did you buy such a lottery ticket? Why don't you give us a few tickets?"

Li Zhe glanced at the other party but said nothing. He turned to the lottery shop owner and said, "I won't redeem this 5000 yuan ticket. Can I just take the 5000 yuan lottery ticket?"

No tax is payable on lottery winnings of less than 1 yuan.

"Of course." The male boss said quickly.

He can get more than 5000 commission from a 500 yuan lottery ticket.

In addition to the more than 200 pictures of passionate dreams, Li Zhe picked another package to compete for the first place, a package of Olympic gold medals, with the highest prize of 10 yuan.

He spent the remaining 700 yuan on Welfare Lottery scratch-off tickets.

After Li Zhe left with a bag of scratch-offs, an old lottery player said funnyly: "This young man is quite interesting. He seems to be afraid that we will steal his grand prize."

Another veteran lottery player said in an experienced tone: "Young people, they get carried away after winning a big prize. They think they can still win a big prize. It is estimated that the 5000 yuan won will be lost soon."

The owner of the lottery shop smiled and added: "Maybe this young man is lucky and can really win a grand prize of 25 yuan."

Although he said this, he actually disagreed with it in his heart.

If it was so easy to win the big prize, he would have scratched it himself, why would he sell lottery tickets?

It wasn't until the next day that he received a notice from the Municipal Sports Lottery Center...

……

After coming out of the lottery shop, Li Zhe did not rush home to scratch the lottery tickets. Instead, he hailed a taxi and headed to the securities business office.

When he arrived at the securities business office and opened a stock account, he spent all the remaining 23 yuan in his card to buy Dali Shipbuilding.

大国船舶从2005年6月的4.44元，一直暴涨到2007年10月的300元，涨了67倍，堪称2007年的第一高股。

But it's a little too late to buy at this time. The stock price of Dangguo Shipbuilding has skyrocketed from 1 yuan on January 29 to today's breakthrough of 37.72 yuan.

There is no way, who made him reborn a little late!
……

After returning home, Li Zhe locked the door to his room and started scratching lottery tickets.

He scratched more than 300 lottery tickets from afternoon until dark at night, and his hands were sore from scratching.

I was only excited for a short while when I scratched the 25 grand prize, and the rest of the time was numb.

Li Zhe regretted buying so many scratch-off tickets for Welfare Lottery. The face value was too small, making it troublesome to scratch off. Of the more than 300 scratch-off tickets, nearly 900 were worth two yuan each.

More importantly, apart from the 25 grand prize, more than 1000 lottery tickets failed to win a single grand prize, so all the work was in vain.

The 5000 yuan that he accidentally won made Li Zhe feel that he was extremely lucky today. He was not prepared to win another big prize due to luck. It turned out that he was overthinking it.

Li Zhe kept the 25 grand prize alone and prepared to go to the Municipal Sports Lottery Middle School to redeem the prize tomorrow.

The remaining small prizes totaled only more than 2000 yuan, and the 5000 yuan was lost by more than half.

The apparent return rate for scratch-off prizes is 65%, but this includes the grand prize. The actual winning rate is mostly between 30% and 40%.

Ordinary people who buy scratch-off prizes will lose half of the money no matter how much they buy, and the probability of winning the jackpot is extremely slim.

Li Zhe was lucky enough to win 5000 yuan today based on his strength.

　No more tonight, changed to day time.
