Chapter 125: Chapter 110: Brother Tongzi Catches One and Keeps Plucking!

"The amount is indeed not small. Handsome, you have such good luck, are you interested?"

"Even if you don’t win the first prize, a few third prizes would cover your costs."

"If you could win a second prize, you’d earn even more."

Tian Mingrong wasn’t trying to deceive Jiang Tao into buying. He was just making a normal inquiry.

What if the person buys it and loses money, and then blames him?

Tian Mingrong wouldn’t bother with such a thankless task.

"Hahaha, you’re joking with me; if it’s guaranteed to win, why wouldn’t you keep it for yourself?"

Jiang Tao laughed and shook his head, pretending not to care and bantered with Tian Mingrong first.

"No problem, young man. I’m just asking, if you don’t want to buy, you don’t have to."

Tian Mingrong wasn’t pushy; she knew this kind of thing couldn’t be forced.

She figured it was likely she wouldn’t be able to sell this ticket.

"If it’s cheap, how much cheaper?"

Jiang Tao, after some bantering, casually asked a question.

"I can’t say too much, but a few thousand cheaper might be possible! We can discuss it."

"If you’re interested, young man, I can call over the ticket owner, and you can talk face-to-face."

Tian Mingrong was happy as Jiang Tao seemed interested in buying.

"Brother Rank One" had said that if she helped sell the ticket, she’d get a 500 yuan bonus.

"Alright, call him over, and we’ll talk in person."

Jiang Tao finished speaking, sat on a round chair in the shop, and lit a cigarette from his pack.

"Sure, hold on! I’ll call him right away."

As Tian Mingrong was speaking, she dialed the ticket owner’s number to have him come quickly.

Before Jiang Tao finished his cigarette, a BYD Qin electric car stopped at the lottery shop.

The car door opened, and a chubby middle-aged man in his forties stepped out.

Upon seeing the man, Jiang Tao felt he looked familiar, as if he’d just seen him somewhere recently.

Suddenly, it clicked.

This was the other buyer he met yesterday at his uncle’s cattle farm when buying a cow!

Well, Brother Tongzi is really grasping every opportunity he can!

If it weren’t for Brother Tongzi providing the information,

That old cow, with 1000 grams of natural bezoar, would likely have been bought by this guy.

As for who would end up with the bezoar, it was hard to say, but it definitely wouldn’t have been Jiang Tao.

This lottery ticket too—without Brother Tongzi’s information, Jiang Tao wouldn’t have come to buy it.

Also, it’s likely no one would buy it in the end, and this guy would still be waiting for the result.

Otherwise, the prize money of over a hundred thousand would have been his.

Now, the bezoar belongs to Jiang Tao, and soon the prize money will too!

Intercepting opportunities from this guy twice in two days, Jiang Tao felt a bit guilty!

"Da Peng, you’re here. This handsome guy is very interested in your lottery ticket."

Tian Mingrong smiled and introduced An Dapeng to Jiang Tao as he entered.

"Hello, handsome. I’m An Dapeng. Didn’t we meet... yesterday?"

An Dapeng still remembered Jiang Tao and asked him with a puzzled look.

"Yes, I also went to Tian Family Manor’s cattle farm to buy a cow yesterday and saw you there."

Realizing An Dapeng recognized him, Jiang Tao straightforwardly admitted his identity.

"Nice to meet you. It seems we’re quite fated to meet! Care for a cigarette, brother?"

An Dapeng quickly pulled out a cigarette to offer to Jiang Tao with a warm smile.

After a brief chat, the two sat by a small glass tea table made of wicker and began negotiating over the lottery ticket.

With Brother Tongzi’s information, Jiang Tao essentially knew An Dapeng’s bottom line.

In the negotiation, Jiang Tao had the upper hand. He knew clear details, while An Dapeng did not.

Ultimately, the lottery ticket worth 18,480 was bargained down to 8,480 by Jiang Tao.

Though An Dapeng felt heartbroken, he painfully sold the ticket.

Before today, An Dapeng telling Tian Mingrong about his economic troubles was just a cover story.

But now, it wasn’t!

Last night, his wife was caught gambling with others,

And over ten thousand in cash she took was seized as gambling funds and confiscated.

He now had to arrange funds for his wife’s fines and still repay the home loan.

So, even at a lower price, he had to sell it.

Tian Mingrong assisted in verifying the ticket’s authenticity with the lottery machine.

Afterward, Jiang Tao immediately transferred 8,480 to An Dapeng.

"The ticket is yours now, buddy. Hope you win the first prize!"

After receiving the transfer, An Dapeng handed the ticket to Jiang Tao.

"Thanks, let’s see how my luck is."

Without further ado, Jiang Tao took the ticket and left.

Watching Jiang Tao get into a Mercedes at the door, An Dapeng’s eyes were full of envy.

When Jiang Tao returned home after buying the lottery ticket, it was just past nine in the morning.

"Honey~where have you been? Xiao Bing wants to go hiking; are you coming?"

When Jiang Tao got home, Xu Li approached him, looking expectantly at him.

"Today’s the day my uncle’s slaughtering a cow, so I’ve got to stay home, you know?"

Jiang Tao winked at Xu Li, giving her an "you know" look.

"Oh! Well, honey, you stay home while we go on our own. If there’s any good news, let me know right away!"

Xu Li’s eyes lit up when she heard about the cow being slaughtered. She replied with an "I understand" look.

Though she loved beef, she wasn’t interested in being part of the bloody scene.

"Where are you two practicing your flirting skills?"

Sitting on the sofa, Jiang Bing, munching pistachios, wasn’t pleased by her brother and sister-in-law flirting.

Day in, day out, if you’re not careful, you get a mouthful of PDA; it’s really enough!
