Lu Mingfei: Hogwarts repeater

Chapter 135 The formula worth tens of millions, Lu Mingfei and the hunter market
"Lu, do you understand everything?"

Lu Mingfei was continuing his journey of reviewing classics when he suddenly heard questions from people around him.

He turned his head and saw a blond boy with slightly dull eyes, about the same age as himself.

"Sorry...are you?"

Lu Mingfei's heart skipped a beat and he tried to recall it for a long time, but he couldn't recall any impression of this face. In the end, he could only ask honestly.

"...I'm Anderson Sedlock!" Anderson looked a little annoyed, which made his face turn red instantly.

"Um..." Lu Mingfei blinked, "Hello Anderson, I'm sure my memory is good. This seems to be our first meeting."

"No," Anderson's face turned completely red, "I was a contestant on the American team in the previous International Mathematical Olympiad!"

Lu Mingfei suddenly realized, "So that's it. I've admired the name for a long time... Where did the American team get?"

"...Did you do it on purpose?" Anderson held it in for a long time before he finally said it.

"That's right..." Anderson felt a little embarrassed for a moment.

"Just because I wasn't in good enough shape that day!" Anderson said.

"Man, you look like you are preparing to recruit people into some kind of cult organization." Lu Mingfei stretched his neck.

There is no need to be polite when dealing with people who come to make trouble. After thinking about it, Lu Mingfei figured out that the reason why Anderson came to make trouble was probably because his Chinese team defeated the American team and won the first place in the team, and he won the first place individually.

Lu Mingfei raised his eyebrows but did not refuse.

If Anderson really wanted to do something illegal, it can only be said that his actions were too imprudent.

"My personal score is first."

Anderson is completely in red-temperature mode.

The problem is how to master the mathematical laws. This is definitely a difficult problem.

"Yeah..." Lu Mingfei narrowed his eyes slightly, "Don't tell me that you are planning to invite me to join a club called 'MIT·Blackjack'."

"Can't you say something else?"

"Okay, I admit that you are very strong, even a little stronger than me...come with me!"

"My team is number one." Lu Mingfei happily accepted Anderson's suggestion.

"That movie about a mathematician sweeping all the casinos in Las Vegas?" Lu Mingfei had actually seen this movie.

"My personal score is number one." Lu Mingfei reminded him friendly.

There was suddenly a hint of fanaticism in Anderson's eyes.

"No, no, no, don't get me wrong. I love friendship, but I was thinking about other things at the time, so I didn't pay much attention to the competition..." Lu Mingfei answered sincerely.

"Don't tell me you are going to listen to the seminar here. I have been observing you for a long time and you have been playing GBA."

"Have you ever heard of Blackjack?" Anderson took a deep breath and asked.

In fact, this sentence was intentional. No matter how hard Lu Mingfei put it, he would never be distracted in such an international competition.

However, after two or three sentences, Anderson gave Lu Mingfei the feeling that he was deliberately trying to cause trouble.

"No, I just found a way to make a fortune... Do you want to make a lot of money?" Anderson shook his head repeatedly, trying to guide Lu Mingfei to take the bait with seductive words.

Lu Mingfei crossed his arms and observed the surrounding environment. He even saw a working camera.

"My personal score is first."

"I was distracted by another problem before..."

"Okay, tell me what you want to see me about."

Anderson looked at Lu Mingfei with malicious expressions several times along the way, and even let out a weird "haha" laugh twice, but he never saw the slightest change in Lu Mingfei's expression, and finally couldn't help but ask.

"You're not worried that I'm going to retaliate against you with force?"

So he lowered his voice: "If my team members weren't powerful enough..."

"No, I just want to say that your mathematical talent can be applied to other aspects besides books and exercises...not limited to theoretical aspects."

What's more annoying than being used as a stepping stone by your opponent to become number one is that your opponent didn't notice your existence at all, and stepped on it completely nonchalantly and took the number one spot.

Fortunately, he is still consciously aware that this is the International Congress of Mathematicians. If he makes a fuss here, he will be so embarrassed that even his tutor will kick him out.

However, what he received was Lu Mingfei's look like he was looking at a fool.

Blackjack, also known as blackjack, is a traditional Western gambling game. This type of gambling is based on counting points to determine the outcome.

"Or, to put it another way, theory can completely apply to reality, allowing you to gain huge benefits from it."

Since the number of cards is limited each time you play, you can use the statistical properties of mathematics and good memory to carry out the most effective control to achieve continuous victory and defeat the dealer.

People only get angry because of things they care about, so Lu Mingfei launched a counterattack against Anderson in this regard.

"Well, now that you've seen it, it's much easier to explain... You should know that this movie is adapted from the novel "Las Vegas", which was inspired by a true story."

After taking out his cell phone and sending a message to the math teacher, Lu Mingfei followed Anderson and left from the safe exit, all the way to a more remote corner.

Anderson was about to continue speaking when he suddenly noticed that even though their voices were very low, there were still people around him looking at him frequently and changed his words.

"This is the venue of the International Congress of Mathematicians. If I shout, a dozen security guards will jump out in less than half a minute." Lu Mingfei said, "Are you planning to take action here?"

Lu Mingfei thought carefully about Su Xiaoqiang's family property-a multinational coal mining group.

There are also those funds in Zero's account that are almost invisible.

Money...as long as you are willing to embrace it, there is no need for you at all, right?
Of course, as an outstanding young man with ideological morals and responsibilities, Lu Mingfei still wants to work hard on his own.

"You tell me first."

Lu Mingfei scratched his head. If he left just because he was bored, now he became interested in what Anderson had to say. What is the number that would make such a mathematical genius so enthusiastic?
Anderson held up a finger mysteriously and said nothing.

"One hundred million?" Lu Mingfei's eyes flashed with surprise.

"According to your custom, it's US dollars... That's indeed a big amount. Come on, I'll take it. Do you want to kill someone or set a fire? You can't ask me to do a question."

"What 100 million, Lu, you really dare to think about it," Anderson was so frightened that he waved his hands repeatedly, "It's 10 million US dollars!"

"Well... ten million dollars is not enough for me to go against my conscience and commit murder and arson... Well, you first tell me what heinous crimes the target has done, and then I will decide whether to accept it or not."

Lu Mingfei looked quite embarrassed and thought hard before reluctantly making a decision.

"This price is enough to hire an army... No, why do you think they are asking you to kill someone?" Anderson was almost led astray by Lu Mingfei, "I'm just asking you to solve a formula!"

"Because I can't think of any formula that can be worth ten million dollars. This thing is enough to buy a hundred sets of special forces soldier-level equipment on the black market... Oh, I said it casually, don't pay attention. "

Anderson glanced at Lu Mingfei with some caution. He was committing murder and arson, and he was selling black market weapons and equipment... This top math genius from China seemed to be a little different from what he had in mind.

Why are you so skilled! According to the environment in China, shouldn't when you hear a gunfight on the street, you might think it's a store opening somewhere and setting off firecrackers to celebrate?

However, Anderson quickly interpreted this as Lu Mingfei's "intentional action." The general idea is that Lu Mingfei was worried about his murder, so he deliberately bragged verbally to make himself seem to know a lot about this matter. .

This made sense, and Anderson quickly felt relieved, and he continued to speak and try to win over.

"Don't worry, it's just that I think you have potential, so I'll take you to try it. As for what that formula does, I don't know, but it won't hurt if you try it, right?
If it could be solved, it would be worth 10 million US dollars! "

"You sound like you are saying, there is a red button in front of me now. Although I don't know what it does, I won't lose anything if I press it."

Lu Mingfei's eyes twitched when he heard this. He felt that Anderson in front of him seemed to be confused by the high amount of money, so much so that he lost his mind.

“What if you press it and find out it’s a nuclear bomb launch button?”

"How is that possible? A key is required to launch a nuclear bomb." Anderson answered seriously.

"I'm just making an analogy, not that the launch of a nuclear bomb is really so careless!" Lu Mingfei began to feel that the classmate Anderson in front of him might simply be out of his mind.

"Okay, are you ready to do this task?" Anderson asked.

"Mission?" Lu Mingfei narrowed his eyes and noticed Anderson's wording, "Isn't it a formula? Don't tell me this is some secret that you Americans are studying...

I don't want to be a traitor! After that thing goes to the underworld, it will have to be hoisted up and fried in oil by the ancestors of the nine tribes! "

"It's not a secret, and it doesn't constitute a traitor. Please, isn't this still the stage of friendly cooperation and exchanges between China and the United States?"

Anderson wiped his sweat. He didn't quite understand why Lu Mingfei could raise the issue to such a level in an instant.

"This formula is indeed a mission, and the source is...hey, I'll show it to you directly!"

……

"This is it, the 'Hunter Market', which is a dark web. You can also think of it as a market for posting tasks and receiving employment. As long as you accept the task and complete it, you can get the reward for the task.

There are many types of tasks, covering almost every industry, including all kinds of illegal things. "

Anderson took out the laptop he carried with him from his bag and showed it to Lu Mingfei.

"The task of solving this formula was assigned to me two months ago. You should understand that people like us can only take on some tasks like this.

The price of these tasks is generally not too high, and sometimes they are even homework for junior high school or college students..."

"It's really a mixed bag." Lu Mingfei commented clearly, having a preliminary understanding of the "Hunter Market".

This place is a hodgepodge of three religions and nine streams, and the complexity of its personnel is comparable to the melting pot of the world.

"In short, you don't need to worry about other things. As long as you only accept serious and legal tasks on it, it is a purely legal entrustment platform." Anderson explained.

"But I had never seen an academic assignment worth ten million before. So after I got it in the hunter market, I took it with the mentality of giving it a try. Unexpectedly, I got the passing standard..."

Lu Mingfei looked strange.

"Don't tell me that there will be liquidated damages if you don't complete it after you pick it up. And now that you are approaching the deadline for completing the task, you have no clue, so you are ready to cast a wide net for help from others."

It sounds very similar to those who started to tear down the east wall to pay for the west wall after getting campus loans, and looked for people to borrow money everywhere...

"No, no, no, if that's the case, I'll be anxious, but this task is long-term and there is no time limit for completion." Anderson shook his head and explained.

"The poster of the task was also very smart. He only gave a formula and asked for the answer, but he didn't give anything representative, you know, the medium. All he used was algebra..."

"In order to conceal the field where this formula is used." Lu Mingfei certainly understood the intention of doing this.

"Thinking about it this way, the true value of this formula must be more than 10 million US dollars. The person who issued the mission is completely casting a wide net."

"Businessmen always have to make money when selling goods, and they can't lose money when publishing tasks. This is normal. At least this is indeed a formula worth ten million US dollars. As long as you solve it, you will definitely get it."

Anderson actually acted particularly sober at this time.

"How about it? Are you ready to take it? If so, quickly register an account of your own to take on this task..."

"I thought you were going to show me the questions directly."

"I will not do free labor for the client!" Anderson sneered.

"The client did not restrict the dissemination and confidentiality of the formula during the task. He wished that everyone who took on the task would spread the formula for free, and then wait for it to be cracked...

Even if 10 million can make the client a huge profit, at least 10 million must be obtained. So I didn’t even tell my mentor about it…

You are different. You are the only person at the same age that I admire. If you can solve this problem, then I will lose willingly. "

"I didn't expect you to have such high confidence in me." Lu Mingfei was speechless.

After all, Lu Mingfei is really interested in this hunter market.

Under Anderson's guidance, Lu Mingfei completed the "Hunter" registration in the Hunter Market.
