Chapter 1575 There are two types of fourth prizes
Believe it or not, some of the wealthy were really tempted by Wei Ronghua's words and planned to buy some sunflower oil to try it out.
On Shu Yu's side, consolation prizes were being awarded one after another. Some people took the popcorn packets but refused to leave, while others stood at the door eating them, which attracted many passersby to come in.
One of the carriages stopped abruptly as it passed by. Two girls got off the carriage, asked where the popcorn came from, and then went into the shop.
Shu Yu was arranging a lottery draw when he saw someone coming over and immediately greeted them.
To everyone's surprise, the two girls asked, "Do you sell popcorn at your shop?"
Shu Yu smiled and said, "Not for sale for now. This is a consolation prize for today. If you're interested, why don't you buy some melon seeds or sunflower oil and come try your luck in the lucky draw?"
The two girls exchanged a glance, just as Wei Ronghua's promotional voice came from nearby.
These two were clearly not short of money. Seeing that there were many people gathered around the melon seed vendor and hearing that even nobles in the palace used sunflower oil, they couldn't wait to buy several pounds of sunflower oil.
Shu Yu's eyes lit up. Oh, this is the first customer to buy sunflower oil today.
The other party gave him ten taels of silver directly.
The man was generous, so Shu Yu immediately invited them over to participate in the lucky draw.
The two were originally only interested in popcorn, but after seeing this lottery method, they became interested in the prizes as well.
Now that it was time for the lottery, the two became a little nervous, pushing and shoving each other.
After a while, the tall girl was pushed out, exhaled a breath, and reached in.
She drew a consolation prize, and the two of them were overjoyed.
Shu Yu handed over a paper bag, "Congratulations."
Upon receiving the popcorn, the two women eagerly opened it. Despite being in public, they still maintained their composure, taking only a small taste of two kernels before having their maid put it away.
But their eyes were still fixed on the raffle box.
What should I do? I still want to smoke.
The short girl's eyes darted around, and she said to Shu Yu, "Master, we'd like to buy... five taels of silver worth of melon seeds, a little of every flavor, so we can keep smoking."
"Of course."
The short girl then paid for and received the wooden plaque, not even bothering to grab the melon seeds, and went straight to the lottery.
She was clearly luckier than the tall girl; she pulled out the paper and took a look.
Fourth Prize
The onlookers were even more excited than she was, "Fourth prize, the fourth prize is out? This lottery doesn't seem so difficult after all."
The short girl became excited and hurriedly asked, "What's the fourth prize?"
Shu Yu lifted the tablecloth, and everyone stared at it. "Huh? Why are there two kinds?"
Shu Yu explained, "The fourth, third, second, and first prizes each have two types of prizes. The winners can choose one of the two."
Everyone stared wide-eyed. Could this really be happening?
If I had to choose, I'd definitely choose the more expensive and better one.
Shu Yu disagreed, saying that spending 200 coins to enter a lottery, even if it was the first prize, was still limited in value.
Ordinary people might want to choose something more expensive, but wealthy people have different priorities.
Her target customers range from high-spending to low-spending customers. If the prizes don't resonate with people and don't interest them, then there's no point in having them.
The prizes for the fourth prize are now either a piece of cloth or a rag doll.
Shu Yu pointed to the two prizes and explained, "There are thirty fourth-prize winners in total. These two prizes are for the fourth prize. Which one would you like, young lady?"
