Xu Zhao, an actress in the seventh and eighth lines, participated in a cultural variety show that was both educational and entertaining. She thought it was just a matter of following the program gr...
Chapter 179 Is there anyone who wants to question
"Su Pianpian's questioning failed, and the profit was reduced by twenty cents!"
After Qiao Zhijing finished his explanation, Zheng Wen immediately announced the verdict.
Su Pianpian: “…”
A bad start!
The game had just begun and she had already lost at the starting line.
Qiao Zhijing put on a harmless expression and said sarcastically, "I thought I would be at the bottom of this game, but I didn't expect that my chances of being at the bottom are slim now. Maybe I can even be in the top few."
As long as others question him a few more times and fail a few more times, he can still rank among the top few even if he makes zero profit.
Su Pianpian: “…”
She and Qiao Zhijing had worked together in the past, so they were familiar with each other. It was just a joke between friends, so she didn't take it seriously. However, for the sake of the show's effect, she said something harsh: "It's just the beginning, don't be too happy too soon, my current position might be yours later!"
After Zheng Wen and the other two finished speaking, he continued to host the game: "Anyone else have any questions?"
With the lessons learned from the past, even if the four people who turned over the question board at this moment had doubts in their hearts and did not trust the others, their unfounded doubts would only increase the risk of reducing their own profits.
At present, Qiao Zhijing's suspicion has been completely ruled out. As the person with the most tiger-head hats among the four, Lin Yuan has been confirmed to have no competitors. The only thing to worry about is whether the other two people on the field are suspected of fraud.
Lin Yuan's gaze fell on Su Pianpian. There was no rule that said a liar could not be questioned, so Su Pianpian was a suspect.
She looked at Tang Qianshuo. Her brother looked very innocent, so he shouldn't lie, right?
In the previous episodes of the show, Tang Qianshuo gave her the impression of being gullible and easy to deceive. He was able to win in the last episode thanks to Xu Zhao’s good leadership. In this episode, he has to fight alone, and his secret should probably be one word: hide.
For a moment, the four of them looked at each other in silence, and no one spoke.
They couldn't keep wasting time like this. Seeing that no one had questioned him for a long time, Zheng Wen said again, "Does anyone else want to question it? If no one questions it, we can start the trade."
After a few seconds of silence, "Since no one questions it, then Lin Yuan and businessman No. 1 are doing the deal," Zheng Wen announced the result.
The transaction is also a very important process. Everyone present looked at the box next to Lin Yuan.
The box was very large, and the guests around were all sitting, so they couldn't see what was inside the box at all.
It is one thing to have it written on the board, but it is another thing to be able to produce the goods and complete the transaction.
At this moment, Qiao Zhijing really hopes that this order will fail, so that no one except Su Pianpian will make money, and everyone now owes 500 yuan in costs.
Lin Yuan could feel the gazes from all directions. She stood up slowly and took out two tiger-head hats from the box beside her, and put the lids back on to prevent anyone from peeking.
Then she placed two tiger-head hats on the lid of the box, pointed at them and said, "All my products are here."
It seems that Lin Yuan did not lie, she does have two tiger-head hats.
Lin Yuan sold the two tiger-head hats at cost price, and currently made a profit of 400 wen. After deducting the purchase cost, Lin Yuan's current profit is the highest of negative 100 wen.
Xu Zhao withdrew his gaze and held up his head. Lin Yuan had lost 400 out of the 500 yuan original capital. This was a clue, and subsequent questioning of her would be slightly easier. However, there was no guarantee that she might have experienced any changes similar to the "part-time job".
This needs to be figured out later.
Just when everyone thought that Lin Yuan won 400 Wen in this round, Zheng Wen's words were like a bucket of cold water poured on Lin Yuan's head.
"Let us congratulate Lin Yuan for successfully winning the 400-wen order, and also congratulate Tang Qianshuo for getting half of Lin Yuan's profits as a liar!"
"What!" Lin Yuan looked at Tang Qianshuo in shock. Seeing Tang Qianshuo touching the back of his head embarrassedly, he realized that he had made a wrong choice after all!
She thought Tang Qianshuo, the most innocent and harmless man, turned out to be a wolf in sheep's clothing!
He cheated her out of two hundred coins in profit by pretending to be weak and innocent!
Meeting Lin Yuan's gaze, Tang Qianshuo felt a little embarrassed. He had originally thought that he could make an extra hundred cents in profit with two extra folding fans given by the stall owner. Even if he was questioned in this round, he still had eighty cents left, so the possibility of winning was still very high. With the idea of taking a chance on turning his bicycle into a motorcycle, he boldly wrote on the answer board.
At first, he almost thought that Su Pianpian was going to question him, and he was so scared that his back still feels cold. Later, it was probably Su Pianpian’s failure that made other people dare not question easily, which allowed him to escape the questioning by luck.
As expected, wealth and honor are achieved through risk!
He now has the 200 wen profit given by Lin Yuan. After deducting the cost of buying the folding fan, his current profit is negative 300 wen. As long as he successfully sells the folding fan, he can win the entire game with a profit of 300 wen.
Tang Qianshuo scratched his head and said modestly: "Sister Lin Yuan, thank you very much!"
It’s no wonder that since the last time Xu Zhao took him flying, Tang Qianshuo instantly realized the difference between people. He thought that his brain was not bad, the only thing he lacked was that he read few books and had nothing in his head.
This week, he got up early and went to bed late to read a lot of books, and he still feels that his mind is full of wisdom.
The results on the field really change rapidly. Before the results are announced, no one knows who the final winner will be.
After the first round of proofing, everyone is more familiar with the rules.
The second round came from a foreign businessman dressed in modern Saudi Arabian attire and a red and white checkered turban. He spoke in authentic Chinese with no foreign accent at all. If it weren't for the fact that he didn't look Chinese, one would have thought he was a compatriot just by his voice.
"Hello everyone, I'm from Saudi Arabia. I heard that the oil-paper umbrellas here are very famous. The cost price is 20 wen. I wonder how much you can sell them to me and how many you can provide."
The guests on the scene began to pick up the answer boards and start writing.
Xu Zhao couldn't help but burst out laughing, but the sound was so soft, so soft that only Jin Suiran beside him heard it.
"Sister Zhao Zhao, is there any problem?"
Xu Zhao shook his head, "I just thought of something funny."
Jin Suiran didn't have an oil-paper umbrella, and she didn't intend to lie. It didn't matter whether she won or not. She didn't have the brains to do it anyway, so she might as well just play her own game honestly.
Seeing that Xu Zhao didn't seem to have any intention of writing on the answer sheet, she leaned over and asked, "Sister Zhao Zhao, what funny thing did you think of?"
Xu Zhao also put his head closer, and their heads were close together, so that the sound of their conversation was only loud enough for the two of them to hear.
"Most of Saudi Arabia has a tropical desert climate with very little annual rainfall."
Although Jin Suiran was an average student, she was not stupid. After hearing this, she curled the corners of her lips. It was indeed a joke.
