When Kong Xinju got it, Peng Zhang had already drawn several times, but they were all participation prizes, not even a third prize.
Kong Xinju stood there for a while, and seeing that he had only gotten hand cream after trying for a long time, he began to sneer, wanting to get back at him.
"Oh! Master Peng's luck is really not that good! He has been drawing for a long time and didn't even get a third prize. I'm afraid that the money he spent today will not even make a sound!"
Peng Zhang glanced at him, and while touching the prize, he said, "I'd be happy even if I just used this hand cream today."
Then he looked at the people standing below the stage, "This Huanyanfang hand cream is great stuff, perfect for winter. Everyone who sees it will get one later! Everyone, take one. Whether you use it yourself or give it to your wife or mother, I guarantee they will be happy."
As soon as these words were spoken, the crowd became excited.
Many passersby stopped to ask questions.
"Master Peng, does everyone really have it?"
Peng Zhang kept working while saying, "If you can wait until I redeem the prize later, you can get it. However, the quantity is limited, so it's up to you!"
Only a fool wouldn't wait for something that's given for free! Even though you may not be able to wait, at least there is still a chance, right? It doesn't matter anyway, just wait!
Besides, the hand cream from Huanyanfang is really good. Giving it to my wife will make her happy.
As a result, more and more people gathered at the door to watch the lottery.
Peng Zhang looked at the audience, and the corners of his lips curled up. He also owned Huanyanfang, so this was a good opportunity to advertise. It was a good deal.
Lu Yuanyuan, who was standing by, also took the opportunity to show her presence, "Brother Zhang, I want one too. I will definitely treasure the hand cream you gave me."
Peng Zhang suppressed the chill and said, "Whoever sees it gets a share, whoever sees it gets a share."
Kong Xinju felt unhappy when he saw that Peng Zhang easily resolved his ridicule.
He continued to speak sarcastically, "Master Peng, there's no need to be so stubborn just to save face. No one would feel good about spending over ten thousand taels of silver to buy these worthless hand creams."
Peng Zhang glanced at him calmly, "Mr. Kong, are you talking about me? After all, the wealthy Mr. Kong has recharged his membership by 4,000 taels more than me!"
What are you going to do if you use up all the hand cream? "
He glanced around the audience and said, "Why don't we give it to everyone else as well? We won't have to let everyone stand with us for so long in vain."
He made a fortune by being able to trick Kong Xinju into advertising for him for free.
Hearing Peng Zhang say this, everyone in the audience looked at Kong Xinju.
After all, the number of hand creams that Peng Zhang can draw is limited. There are too many people present and the chances of them getting one are not great. But if even Kong Xinju's is distributed to them, then their chances of getting the hand cream will increase a lot.
Facing the expectant gazes of the crowd, Kong Xinju was in a dilemma whether to agree or not.
You have to agree to it! This grasshopper is still meat, no matter how small it is. Even if he sells the hand cream, it will be worth a lot of money. It doesn't make sense for him to pay the money and then let others take all the benefits.
He couldn't refuse! With Peng Zhang's pearls and jade before him, if he didn't agree, wouldn't he be left behind by Peng Zhang? After today, his reputation for being stingy would spread throughout the capital. How could he survive in the capital in the future?
This damn Peng Zhang has dug a big hole for him!
Just as Kong Xinju was about to reluctantly accept the offer, Peng Zhang spoke up, "Mr. Kong is so generous! It's just a few bottles of hand cream! How can he be so stingy? Everyone, thank him!"
Suddenly, there was endless applause and thanks from the crowd. Gradually, the sound became louder and louder, and almost the entire audience was thanking Kong Xinju.
Although Kong Xinju managed to force a smile, he felt no joy in his heart. He hated Peng Zhang even more. What he agreed to and what he was forced to agree to were two completely different things.
What's even more terrible is that while Kong Xinju was still hating Peng Zhang, Peng Zhang's personal servant Peng Zhong suddenly exclaimed, "You won, sir! It's the special prize!"
The crowd was shocked.
“There really is a special prize!”
"This grand prize is ten glazed windows! You can't even buy glazed windows with all the money!"
"Mr. Peng is so lucky that he actually won the prize."
Kong Xinju was dumbfounded. This guy really got the special prize. Fortunately, there were only three special prizes. Even if Peng Zhang took one away, there were still two left. He still had a chance, so there was no need to rush.
Kong Xinju kept comforting his envious and jealous heart, thinking that he paid more money than Peng Zhang, and if he could get one, then it would be no problem for him too.
Unfortunately, he was destined to be disappointed. In order to keep the lottery event hot, Tian An and his friends only put one special prize in the lottery box every day.
If the grand prize is not drawn on the day, it will be kept until the next day. However, if the grand prize has been drawn on the day, you will have to wait until the next day to draw the grand prize.
In other words, the only grand prize today has been taken away by Peng Zhang. Even if Kong Xinju recharges another 10,000 taels to become a member, he will not be able to win the grand prize.
Afterwards, Peng Zhang won one more first prize, two second prizes, and two third prizes. The rest were participation prizes.
After redeeming the prize, Peng Zhang gave all the hand creams to the people present as he said. After thanking him, the people who received the gifts hurried home.
I thought I had to hurry back and call everyone over so I could continue to get the hand cream Kong Xinju had won. The more people there were, the better the chances were! If I got a few more bottles, I wouldn't have to spend money to buy them this winter.
It was Kong Xinju's turn to draw the lottery. This guy was lucky. He won the first prize, a set of glass tea sets, on his tenth try.
This made him more confident in winning the special prize. Even Peng Zhang had to draw almost half of the time before he won the special prize. He won the first prize on his tenth try. With such good luck, the special prize was definitely in his pocket.
Unfortunately, he didn't know that his good luck would end here. This first prize was already the best prize of the day.
There are five first prizes. Tian An and her colleagues set it up so that two would be given out each day on the first and second days, and only one on the third day.
If Peng Zhang had been luckier just now, Kong Xinju probably wouldn't even have won the first prize today. That's why the shopkeeper just told him that if it was too late, the good stuff would be gone.
Sure enough, Kong Xinju later drew all the prizes, but there was no grand prize. He almost had a cramp in his hand from the constant drawing.
In the end, his 19,000 taels of silver were enough to buy a set of glass tea sets, two sets of skin care products, three facial treatments, and a lot of hand creams.
Because they didn't expect Peng Zhang and Kong Xinju to do this, the hand cream they prepared was not enough. It was only because Zuo Yunshu and others transferred goods from several stores in time that they were able to redeem all the prizes.
Seeing passersby happily holding hand cream, Kong Xinju couldn't control his dark face, and Lu Yuanyuan beside him kept poking his heart.
