This matter originated from a post, a campus betting post.
The Agricultural University and the Sports University next door had a grudge after playing a basketball game, and they decided to make a bet that the loser would have to obey the other party's demands.
Obviously, the losers were the students of the Agricultural University. The post recorded the entire experience of the Agricultural University's disastrous defeat. In the end, the group of people from the Sports University made a request that seemed generous but was actually extremely embarrassing: they asked the Agricultural University to buy them a bag of good, red, big strawberries. Small and sour ones would not count at all.
This request seems simple enough, doesn't it? It's just a bag of good strawberries. While strawberries are expensive, they're still relatively cheap, and it's definitely better than those Truth or Dare punishments, right? The students at the Sports University are truly kindhearted.
Kind-hearted? The students at the Agricultural University couldn't help but laugh. Ordinary students might not know the seasons of fruits, but how could the students at the Agricultural University not know? Strawberries were already out of season. Even the strawberry fields at their school were already lush green, with no trace of red left.
You say the guys from the Sports University didn't know? Unfortunately, they did. The conflict over the basketball game was that their school didn't have enough courts, so when they came to borrow their courts, they trampled on the strawberry fields and were scolded by the students from the Agricultural University. That's when the feud over the basketball game started.
So, the group from the Sports University happened to know this, because after scolding the agricultural student, they inadvertently revealed the information that strawberries were out of season. So at this moment, the Sports University's request was obviously unreasonable and they were very uncomfortable.
Just look at their description of requirements and you will know, they only want big, red strawberries, not small, sour ones. It is obvious that they are targeted at them. Big, red strawberries are obviously only seasonal strawberries.
But this was a gamble, and the agricultural student could not swallow this humiliation and apologize to the physical education student, so he agreed to the request with a stiff neck, saying that he would definitely complete the other party's request satisfactorily.
However, after they were brave enough, problems arose again. The school's strawberry fields had long run out of strawberries, and they couldn't find any in the market. After much thought, they could only rely on the powerful Internet. After a painstaking search, they placed ten or eight orders at a time with stores that were still selling the strawberries and had some sales.
However, not long after I placed the order, more than half of the stores came to apologize with regret, saying that they had already sold out and forgot to take the product off the shelves, and they would refund the money immediately.
So, out of those ten or eight orders, only three companies were actually able to ship the goods. This is not the point. The point is that when the students from the Agricultural University received the goods, their faces turned sour.
These strawberries are very bad, extremely bad, and many of them are even the last ones left. Not to mention how sweet they are, just looking at them makes me lose my appetite.
It can be said that with so many strawberries, if the agricultural students couldn’t even pass their own test, how could they possibly pass the test of those guys from the Sports University?
They had no choice but to buy strawberries online again. This time, they placed orders with all the stores that sold strawberries online. Soon, the goods arrived one after another, but the more the agricultural students opened the packages, the more desperate they became. It was obvious that none of the orders met their requirements, and there was not even a slightly better one.
"This is the last one left. Why don't we go to Ti Avenue next door and apologize? I remember the store where this last one is from. I placed the order. It's a new store that hasn't been open for long. Their sales are either zero or one. Ugh... I don't even want to open it."
"Open it, the package has arrived anyway. There's nothing I can do about it. I can only apologize. I just can't get over this. Open it, open it, it's all hard-earned money after all."
The other people looked dejected, clearly having given up hope. With the last package coming from a new store and near-zero sales, how could they possibly cheer up? Until… after they opened the package and saw what the strawberries inside truly looked like, they were stunned, speechless. In the end, all they could see was the barely concealed ecstasy in their companions' eyes.
So... this campus betting post was over. Everyone thought so, because the students from the Agricultural University said in the post that they had bought good strawberries and gave them to the students from the Physical Education University, and the students from the Physical Education University also replied to say that they had received them. It seemed that this post was about to be forgotten.
But unexpectedly, on the second day, this post was pushed up again like crazy, and the people who pushed it up were actually the students of Physical Education themselves. They were pushing up the post like crazy to ask the students of Agricultural University where they bought the strawberries. They wanted to buy ten kilograms, no, twenty kilograms!
“???”
"What's going on? Are those people at the Sports University crazy? Have they never eaten strawberries in their lives? Why did they buy 20 kilograms at once? Or are those strawberries really delicious?"
"But no matter how delicious it is, it doesn't have to be like this. Good strawberries are indeed delicious, but you don't have to be crazy about them. They're just strawberries, not some rare fairy fruit that can make you immortal after eating it~"
"You don't know!" the student from the Sports University said. "We big men are not new to the world! Of course I've eaten delicious strawberries before, but those damn strawberries those guys from the Agricultural University sent yesterday are nothing like those sleazy ones sold outside!"
"What's the difference? Aren't they all strawberries? Are they especially delicious?"
"They're truly delicious, better than any strawberry I've ever eaten, no, better than any fruit!" the student from the Physical Education University reiterated. "But that's not the point. The point is, damn, I'd accept calling those strawberries divine fruits. You don't know, but yesterday our senior represented our school's basketball team in a competition. He played two games in one day and was so tired when he came back he could hardly move a finger. He didn't feel like eating, so he ate a lot of strawberries, and then..."
"Then?"
"Then, my senior woke up the next day looking incredibly energetic! He didn't even have any muscle soreness! He didn't look like he had just finished playing two games yesterday. On the contrary, the rest of the basketball team was like a pile of mud, unable to move! Damn, then, my entire school basketball team chased me for nine blocks just to buy those strawberries! I only ate one, just one! I only had time to taste it, and before I could even savor it, they were all gobbled up! QAQ!!"
