215. Chapter 215 Are There Pinball Machines at This Time?

Chapter 215 Is there a pinball machine now?

After the oysters were sold out, there were still many customers who came after hearing the news and saw that they had already begun to close the stall.

"I'm going, I'm late."

"Boss, why are they sold out so quickly? I want to buy an extra pound to drink with beer. When will I come back to sell oysters next time?"

Li Duoyu thought for a while: "I should come to the fair next time."

"Then bring more oysters next time, and stop restricting purchases. Your one hundred kilograms of oysters is not enough for the likes of us."

Li Duoyu smiled: "No problem, next time I bring a whole cart over, and I will bake it for you as much as you want."

"That's not necessary."

After closing the stall.

Li Duoyu went to a nearby well, fetched a bucket of water, doused all the charcoal in the five stoves, and started closing the stall.

The oysters sold well today, exceeding his expectations. He thought it would take him one morning to sell them out, but he didn't expect them to be sold out in two hours.

Li Qingguang was still calculating while closing the stall. After three minutes, he suddenly replied: "Brother Duoyu, I know how to calculate."

"Nine plus one equals ten."

"Eight plus two equals ten."

"Seven plus three equals ten."

"Nine plus eight plus seven is thirty minus one minus two minus three, so it's twenty-four."

After hearing this algorithm, Li Duoyu was stunned for a long time, and then gave him a thumbs up.

Why haven't I noticed before that this kid can be considered a talent from a certain perspective?

Zhang Jian saw that Li Duoyu had already started to close the stall, with a very complicated expression. These short two hours had given him a feeling of exhaustion.

"Duoyu, are you going back so soon?"

Li Duoyu pursed his lips: "It's all sold out. If I don't go back, why don't I stay with you?"

"If you want to accompany me, then I will be happy." Zhang Jian sighed: "Today all the business has gone to you. My onion pancakes haven't even opened today."

Li Qingguang grinned and said: "When we first came here, someone said that if we could sell out all the oysters, they would take our last name."

After hearing this, Zhang Jian's face turned a little ugly for a moment, but the next second, his face suddenly became thicker:

"It's okay to have your last name. If you have a woman around my age in your family, it's okay to be a widow. I'll just knock on the door and come over. I just don't want to work hard anymore. After knocking on the door, I'll just follow you."

Li Qingguang thought of his cousin Li Xiaorong, a top student, and said with disdain: "It's a beautiful thought. You are the only one who wants to barge in our house, but we don't even have a door."

Zhang Jian rolled his eyes: "That's because you are still young and don't understand. If someone like me really cuts in, there will be a lot of families competing for it."

Li Duoyu looked at Zhang Jian.

To be honest, Zhang Jian looks pretty good, quite decent, not to mention shabby.

He was indeed right. People like him who can make money and are willing to step in would be very popular.

The matchmaker also likes him like this. After all, here in Shangfeng Town, boys are quite favored over girls. Some people who really can't give birth to boys can only recruit sons-in-law.

And the money you can earn from one successful introduction is several times more than ordinary matchmaking.

Zhang Jian just said that he cut in the door upside down.

Not kidding.

When Li Duoyu chatted with his leader just now, he listened clearly.

He originally thought that the cold storage and ice making plant in their town were projects brought in by the town leaders, but he didn't expect that they were related to Li Duoyu, and it seemed that he even helped.

Zhang Jian's intuition told him that Li Duoyu must have a backing, otherwise it would be impossible. For someone who became the village director at such a young age, the town leaders would not be so polite to him.

As for their family, it happened to be quite special. Their parents gave birth to seven children, and all seven were boys.

Even if one or two doors were opened upside down, it would not have any impact on their family.

But judging by the boy's tone, if he wanted to barge in and enter Li Duoyu's house, it would probably be impossible.

It seems that the path of inserting the door upside down will not work.

I have to find ways to find opportunities in the future to get close to them more often.

Zhang Jian suddenly remembered something and quickly took out six scallion pancakes and put them in brown paper.

"I just ate you two oysters, and I almost forgot to give you cakes."

"If you didn't tell me, I would have forgotten."

After Li Duoyu took the scallion pancake and took a few bites, he frowned.

"This cake of yours is too chewy. There is no oil or water at all, and it tastes dry."

Zhang Jian scratched his scalp: "The price of pork has increased recently. If I put too much, I will lose money."

"Is your business getting worse recently?"

"It's a lot different." Zhang Jian nodded.

"If everyone wants to eat, they must eat rice. If everyone comes to eat your scallion pancakes, they must be here for the delicious food. If you don't taste it, who will buy it?"

"Listen to me, put more meat in, raise the price a little, and sales will definitely go up."

Zhang Jian has also thought about it, but he has been selling scallion pancakes at this price for so many years. He is afraid that if the price goes up, people will stop buying his scallion pancakes.

Forget it, give it a try.

After Li Duoyu closed the stall, he took Li Qingguang to have lunch directly in the Wei.

There are a lot of things to eat at the market, and there are also a lot of strange foods, such as roasted dried mice, centipede skewers, and even "Three Zhi'er".

And Li Duoyu also found the food he was longing for, a luxurious set meal of bean curd and fat intestine bean curd vermicelli.

After eating.

Li Duoyu first asked Li Qingguang to take his things and wait for him at Qingkou Pier.

He planned to go to the town to order a signboard. Since he was planning to create the brand [Minlong Food], he must have a signboard.

What he didn't expect was.

In a crowded place in the market, he saw Shitou from the same village. He was sitting in front of a pinball machine with sweat all over his forehead.

The owner of the pinball machine.

"It's very simple. Look at me. I can win the prize every time. Do you want to try again? As long as you win the biggest prize, you can get your money back in one go."

A group of people around also followed suit.

"Do you want to try again? If not, don't sit there all the time. Let me do it. I will definitely win the jackpot this time."

Shitou wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, took out another five yuan and slapped it on the ground.

"I'll try five more times. I don't believe that my luck will always be so bad."

"The boss is courageous."

"The boss is awesome."

Li Duoyu frowned when he saw Shitou playing the pinball machine. Did the pinball machine exist in the 1980s?

The person who sets up the pinball machine, like those who play chess, is often not alone. It is estimated that those who make trouble are all their own people.

The pinball machine has a switch. When you try, the switch is turned on, and you can win the jackpot almost every time.

But once you pay the money.

He will turn off the switch, and no matter how many times you try, you can't win the prize. When it's their turn, they will turn the switch on again.

Li Duoyu remembers that this scam was very popular at the time. In his previous life, most of the men in their village were cheated by this pinball machine.

After Shitou hit the pinball five times, he began to doubt his life. Why did others win the prize every time, but he always lost money when it was his turn.

No matter he pushed the pinball gently or shot it at an angle, the pinball would return to the original path and would not fall into the prize pool.

The owner of the pinball machine said, "What a pity, it was just a little bit short. You spent so much money. How about this, I'll take a loss. Just give me two dollars and I'll let you play five more times."

"Okay, I'll give you two more dollars."

Seeing that Shitou was about to pay again, Li Duoyu sighed and said, "Shitou, come with me."

Shitou turned around suddenly and found Li Duoyu standing behind him.

"Brother Yu, why are you here too?"
