Chapter 1579 This prize is totally worth it!
The woman nodded repeatedly, "Yes, yes, yes, we can take it back." She had come out with her sister-in-law, and the two of them would have to carry it back.
However, it would be a shame to damage such a fine box while carrying it back; we'll have to find an oxcart to transport it back to the village.
Shu Yu then had the camphor wood chest brought out, and thoughtfully tied cloth strips and ropes around it for them, and gave them a carrying pole so they could carry it back.
The camphor wood chest wasn't actually very big, but it was still quite heavy.
The two women carefully slipped the carrying pole into the handle, lifted it up, and tested it. It worked very well and was very convenient.
Before leaving, the woman kept thanking Shu Yu, "Lord Lu, you are such a kind person, thank you, thank you."
Shu Yu was both amused and exasperated. "You earned this through your own skill, it wasn't given to you for free. No need to thank me."
The onlookers were filled with envy, some offering congratulations and others shouting encouragement. Even as the two men carried the camphor wood chest away, the crowd's gaze remained fixed on them.
That's some incredible luck.
But this has only fueled the growing craze for buying things and participating in prize draws.
The two women carried the camphor wood chest all the way, and curious passersby couldn't help but ask them a few questions.
The two were filled with gratitude for Lu Ji's generosity and naturally kept promoting it. Seeing the generous prize draw, everyone flocked to Fengtao Lane.
When Meng Yunzheng arrived at the entrance of Lu Ji, all he saw was a sea of people, so many that it was impossible to even squeeze in.
Xia Yan was startled. "There are just too many people!"
It's impossible to get in.
Meng Yunzheng thought for a moment, "Go through the back door."
The two went around to the back, but the back door was locked. Xia Yan tentatively knocked on the door for a while.
No one opened the door. I don't know if there's no one in the backyard or if the noise from the front was too loud and drowned out the knocking.
Meng Yunzheng looked up at the wall in front of him, wondering whether he should climb over it, when he heard Ying Xi's voice coming from inside.
"Who is it?" She came to the kitchen to get popcorn.
There were so many consolation prizes that everyone took one popcorn from the basket, and they were used up very quickly.
I never expected to hear someone knocking on the door.
Xia Yan was overjoyed and quickly raised his voice, "Ying Xi, it's us."
Ying Xi was stunned. She quickly put down her basket and went to open the door. When she saw the two people standing at the door, she was very surprised. "Young Master Meng, Xia Yan?"
"Is it busy inside?"
Ying Xi nodded repeatedly, not bothering to greet them, "I'm going to the kitchen to get some popcorn, you can help yourselves."
After saying that, he hurriedly ran away.
Meng Yunzheng and Xia Yan exchanged a glance. "Let's go, bring the carriage in first. I'll go check the front and help out."
After he finished speaking, he washed his hands and went straight into the shop.
As soon as I got close, I could hear noises and excited shouts coming from inside.
He paused for a moment, chuckled, and then walked leisurely into the shop.
Shu Yu was standing behind the lottery table when he saw her. As he got closer, he saw Mrs. Tan drawing the prize.
He remained silent and waited quietly.
Mrs. Tan took a deep breath, paused briefly inside the lottery box, and then pulled her hand out.
Upon opening it, I found it was a fifth prize.
Mrs. Tan laughed, "I thought with my luck, I'd be lucky to get a consolation prize, but I didn't expect there would be a fifth prize?"
Congratulations!
For Mrs. Tan, three packs of instant noodles were nothing, not worth much money.
But since this was the one she drew, the meaning is completely different.
