Counterflow 92: Ditching the School Flower at the Start and Building a Trillion Empire

In his previous life, Lin Yifeng was tricked by his first love into going abroad, missing the period of rapid development in his homeland.

He finally managed to amass a fortune of hundreds of...

Chapter 10 has too few plot holes.

Once you understand human nature, making money becomes an easy task.

Lin Yifeng had studied "Social Psychology," "How to Win Friends and Influence People," and "Of Human Nature" in his previous life, and he had a certain understanding and insight into human nature.

The foreigner in front of me, named Aire, threw 95 rings in a row, but failed to ring the porcelain he wanted.

This sense of frustration and loss made him want to give up.

Under these circumstances, Lin Yifeng naturally had to provoke him.

The most effective way to motivate him is to encourage him to give up.

"Want to pick a piece of porcelain from the $5 section and take it home?"

Aire glanced around the $5 area, then decisively put his hand in his pocket and pulled out a $10 bill:

"I must take my baby with me today."

“Honorable guest, it only costs $9.99. You can buy it directly with this amount of money.”

Lin Yifeng, in a tone that suggested he was doing it for the best, continued to provoke the young foreigner, Ai Lei: "I suggest you just buy it directly. My previous words still stand. You can also take a piece of porcelain that you like from the $5 section."

"NONONO!"

Ai Lei reached out to Lin Yifeng for the ring: "Keep giving me the rings, and I'm sure I can take my treasure away."

I like your attitude.

Lin Yifeng deftly handed the ring to Aire, while simultaneously teasing the other foreigner: "Esteemed guest, I suggest you try 10 more. If you still haven't won, go to the $5 section and pick out a piece of porcelain you like to take home."

“Your suggestion is very pertinent. I feel that I am not destined to have this porcelain.”

?

Damn it, why don't you take the bait?

Lin Yifeng's lips twitched. This foreigner named Johns was clearly much calmer than Aire.

Johns naturally didn't get anything on the 10 rings. He shook his head with a look of regret and picked out a rather ornate porcelain item from the $5 section.

This scene pained Lin Yifeng greatly. He had only earned $10 from Johns, which was equivalent to only 55.14 yuan.

I hope to get more gold coins from this well-dressed foreigner.

Lin Yifeng's gaze fell on the foreigner, Aire, and he realized that the foreigner's skill level was really bad. He had already thrown more than 130 balls and still couldn't get the porcelain.

"Honorable guest, why don't you choose something closer to you? This porcelain piece is displayed a bit far away. I suggest you buy it for $9.99."

Lin Yifeng continued to provoke Ai Lei, trying to take advantage of him: "What do you think of that green porcelain over there? That porcelain is also $9.99, but it's closer to you."

Lin Yifeng pointed to another porcelain piece and asked Ai Lei about it. Ai Lei, holding a ring, ignored Lin Yifeng and continued to throw the ring at the "Yohen Tenmoku" porcelain piece.

Lin Yifeng was delighted to see this scene. He happily picked up the rings and handed them to Ai Lei one after another.

finally!

On the 167th attempt, Elle got the set!

"Congratulations, esteemed guest! You have won the 'Autumn Leaves in Three Layers' porcelain piece. The 'Autumn Leaves in Three Layers' porcelain piece is a $5 piece. You can now choose to take the 'Autumn Leaves in Three Layers' piece or continue tossing the rings."

"If you choose the former, I will reduce your guaranteed number of attempts by 50..."

Before Lin Yifeng could finish speaking, Ai Lei continued to throw the ring at "Yao Bian Tian Mu". His meaning was clear: he didn't want the $5 "Autumn Leaves Triple".

Great, he's a stubborn one!

I love stubborn people!

Lin Yifeng smiled happily; to him, what Ai Lei threw wasn't a ring, but money.

For every throw he made, Lin Yifeng earned 55 cents (in 1992, 1 US dollar was equal to 5.514 RMB).

The 200 chances to toss the ring were quickly used up, and Ai Lei stared blankly at the "Radiant Eye," his face no longer showing the initial high spirits.

"Honored guest, you have triggered the guaranteed reward mechanism. I will retrieve the 'Radiant Eye' for you. Please wait a moment."

After Lin Yifeng picked up the ring, he was about to retrieve the "Yao Bian Tian Mu" when, unexpectedly, Ai Lei suddenly pulled out a $20 bill and handed it over.

"Keep giving me the rings!"

kindness?

kindness!

Looking at Ai Lei, whose face was flushed, Lin Yifeng kindly advised, "This customer, you have already triggered the guarantee mechanism, so you can take the porcelain you want directly."

"I don't recommend you continue with the ring toss game; it's a waste of money."

Ai Lei completely ignored Lin Yifeng's advice: "Boy, this isn't about money, it's about a cowboy's dignity."

A cowboy who can tame a wild horse can definitely conquer a piece of porcelain that won't move.

“...”

Are you getting high?

Good heavens!

Is that all it takes to get hooked?

Lin Yifeng thought to himself that today was truly a day of great luck. On his first day of setting up a stall to do business, he encountered a very important customer.

"Aile, calm down."

Johns, who came with Ayre, saw this and quickly tried to persuade Ayre, but how could someone so headstrong be persuaded?

Ayre didn't reply, but instead picked up the ring and started tossing it.

...

Gamblers are gamblers because they cannot control their emotions and are easily carried away.

There are only two ways to stop an overly addicted gambler.

First, he had no way of raising the money.

Secondly, he got what he wanted.

On his 647th attempt, Ai Lei successfully snagged the "Yohen Tenmoku" porcelain, ending his obsessive journey.

"My little darling, I've finally won you over!"
