Chapter 1
When Jiang Qi and his group arrived at the small theater, the magic show had already begun.
Xiao Zhao was squatting at the best viewing spot at the door to watch the magic show. Seeing Jiang Qi and his seven companions finally arrived, he whispered, "You are finally here. I specially reserved seats in the first row for you. Please take a seat."
Jiang Qi quickly glanced at the audience seats. This small theater was quite large, with 20 seats in a row. Except for the first row where there were only two people, the second, third and fourth rows were all full.
Jiang Qi and his friends walked over and found a seat nearby. Jiang Qi and Wang Erya were standing on the left and right of the two people in the middle of the first row. When Jiang Qi took a closer look, he found that they were Fang Jing and Gong Ye.
Jiang Qi smiled at Fang Jing, and Wang Erya also greeted Gong Ye in a low voice.
The magician on stage was pulling various objects out of a hat that looked empty.
A deck of playing cards, a can of candied haws, a can of drink, a handful of darts, three pigeons, and a goose.
It can be seen that the magician's props were all prepared by Fang Jing, and the big goose might have taken them from the hoop.
The audience in the audience exclaimed in amazement. Everyone has more or less seen magic performances on TV programs or variety shows, but there is still a significant difference between what you see on TV and what you see live.
When the audience sees it on TV, they will subconsciously think it is magic. When the audience sees it live, they will only subconsciously think, wow, that’s magic.
The Qiankun bag was right in front of me.
After a 20-minute magic show, the audience's hands were tired of clapping.
Only Gong Ye was dissatisfied: "Mr. Fang, the magician you hired doesn't perform well enough. He either does traditional card tricks or traditional object tricks, and there's no interaction with the audience. When you asked me to recommend a magician for you last month, didn't I recommend a few better ones? They are all masters, and their magic shows are very exciting."
Fang Jing: ...
Fang Jing didn't care that Jiang Qi and the others were still sitting nearby, and the employees behind him hadn't left yet, so he asked, "Do you know how expensive the ones you recommended to me are?"
"Inviting them is enough for me to hold two more team-building events."
Jiang Qi and his seven companions quietly escaped while the two parties A were arguing.
There were obviously fewer people in the parent-child park at noon.
One reason is that the sun is strong and the temperature is high at noon, and many people just want to stay in air-conditioned and cool places such as restaurants and theaters.
Another reason is that normal people, if they can play the amusement facilities without queuing, will be tired after playing for a whole morning, and watching a 20-minute magic show in the middle. When they are tired, they will generally choose to find a place to sit and eat something, rather than continuing to sweep the amusement park seamlessly.
Jiang Qi and the other seven are obviously not normal people.
Three of them weren't even technically human.
A magic competition made the seven people even more excited. Jiang Wanwan counted the distribution of the lottery tickets in her bag while holding a parasol. The small games in the parent-child park were all 10 lottery tickets each time. Now everyone only had 397 lottery tickets, and theoretically they could only play 39 games.
This number may seem like a lot, but it actually goes very fast when played. Except for the fact that you will get tired after shooting a few rounds of archery, games like ring tossing can be played almost infinitely.
They are novice but love to play. If they can't get it right, they will keep trying. It is not uncommon for some people to spend an entire afternoon trying one set.
"I think why don't we divide the lottery tickets so that everyone can play whatever they want. I'm not interested in anything in the parent-child park, so I can just use the five coupons to buy some sugar paintings," Jiang Wanwan suggested.
"No need." Jiang Qi was very confident in himself. "I'll go guess the riddles. If there are not enough tickets, I'll guess them for you."
Jiang Wanwan looked at Jiang Qi deeply, then turned to Wang Erya and said, "Qinghe, what game do you want to play? Do you want to buy some sugar paintings?"
Jiang Qi: ...
In order to prove that his lantern riddle guessing skills were not so bad, Jiang Qi went straight to the lantern riddle area as soon as he entered the parent-child park.
There are quite a few riddle masters among the more than 80 people. In order to ensure that the riddles are not guessed out, the staff will hang up a new one every time a riddle is guessed. It is said that several thousand have been prepared, which can definitely make riddle lovers guess to death.
When Jiang Qi went to the riddle area, there were four riddle enthusiasts guessing riddles.
Jiang Qi's many years of experience in guessing lantern riddles made him realize that the fewer words a lantern riddle has, the simpler it is. Just then, the staff hung up a new lantern riddle with only three words, and Jiang Qi picked it out at first sight and rushed over to guess it first.
The staff member who hung the riddles knew Jiang Qi, so he simply stayed by the side and waited for Jiang Qi to guess it. He smiled and said, "Boss Jiang, this riddle is one of the simplest ones. You've hit the jackpot."
The note hanging under the lantern read: Eighty-eight.
Jiang Qi felt that he had some idea.
Jiang Qi thought for a minute.
Jiang Qi thought for two minutes.
Jiang Qi felt that he had an inspiration.
Jiang Qi felt that he was very close to the answer.
A lantern riddle enthusiast grabbed the note he had picked up and asked the staff member next to Jiang Qi: "Is this an honor?"
The staff member took the riddle and looked at it, then said with a smile: "Yes, this is the 37th one you have guessed, right? Have you considered trying something else?"
The riddle lover smiled and said, "I'm too old to ride roller coasters. I feel dizzy after one ride. It's better to guess riddles here to earn some coupons. Maybe they will be useful later."
As he spoke, the riddle lover glanced at the riddle in front of Jiang Qi.
"Eighty-eight, this is rice! It must have been newly hung up, it's so easy."
"That's right." The staff member said with a smile.
Jiang Qi: ...
Brother, it really embarrasses me if you say this in front of me.
The riddle lover had no idea that Jiang Qi was guessing eighty-eight. He thought Jiang Qi was guessing the number on the side.
"Now we are separated at the Broken Bridge." The riddle lover stared at the other one and thought about it, and also fell into deep thought.
Jiang Qi walked away silently.
Half an hour later, Jiang Qi felt that today was not a good day for guessing riddles, so he decided to go out and play some ring-casting to change his mood.
Liu Lan was putting dolls in nesting pairs, Qin Can was putting geese in nesting pairs, Jiang Wanwan, who said she didn't want to play, was throwing darts to pop balloons, Huang Fugui was shooting arrows, Old John was watching, and Wang Erya was cheering for Qin Can and Gong Ye next to Qin Can.
From the considerable number of bamboo rings scattered around the goose, it can be seen that these two people have been doing this for some time.
Soon, both of them had thrown all 20 circles in their hands.
This group of geese had been trapped for a whole day and had gained experience. They would hide when they saw the circle. Not only would they hide, they would also shake their necks and hit the circle. A few of them had even learned to predict the direction of the circle, and they were all like smart spirits.
Jiang Qi saw with his own eyes that Qin Can had thrown several hoops very accurately, but they were avoided by the big goose.
Qin Can has been trying to scam the big goose since she came in, and the coupons Jiang Wanwan gave her had already been used up. The reason why she hasn't stopped scamming until now is entirely because Gong Ye has been fighting with the goose and knows that his ability is limited, so he helps Qin Can buy circles in the hope that his teammates can scam a goose.
"Forty more!" Gong Ye threw out two lottery tickets.
Jiang Wanwan had also finished throwing darts. The rule for throwing darts at balloons is to throw 10 darts, and if you hit all of them, you can draw a surprise prize. The surprise prizes are big dolls, snack gift packs, and mysterious prizes, all of which are good.
9 sticks get a medium-sized doll.
6 sticks get a little doll.
3 sticks for a bottle of water.
Jiang Wanwan, despite her lantern riddle guessing skills being comparable to Jiang Qi's, didn't even get a bottle of water.
"Brother Jiang Qi, have you finished guessing the riddles? How is it, did you guess it?" Jiang Wanwan asked.
Jiang Qi calmly took out two lottery tickets with a face value of 10: "It's just average, I guessed 2 correctly."
In fact, this lottery ticket was given to Jiang Qi by a riddle enthusiast. Seeing that Jiang Qi had been guessing for half an hour and hadn't figured out a single answer, he gave him two lottery tickets.
"Wow, Jiang Qi, you are awesome!"
Qin Can, who was playing the ring tossing game, also noticed Jiang Qi coming and turned to ask, "Jiang Qi, do you want to try to toss a goose? You probably haven't played any of the games here, right?"
Jiang Qi knew his ability to trap geese, so he waved his hand and said, "It's too difficult for me to trap geese, you can do it."
Qin Can invited enthusiastically: "Come and give it a try. Everyone has tried it. It's normal if you can't catch the goose. I just asked, and only one of the geese was caught."
After Qin Can said this, Jiang Qi no longer refused. He took the remaining 7 circles from Qin Can and walked to Gong Ye's side.
"These geese are so cunning and they can hide. I really don't understand where Fang Jing bought the geese from. After today's event is over, I will ask him to give me one to stew at home." It can be seen that Gong Ye is having a fight with the geese.
Gong Ye threw out a red circle.
Jiang Qi also threw out a blue circle randomly.
The goose, with its feet tied, easily predicted the direction of the two circles and turned its neck with disdain.
The red circle thrown by Gong Ye was knocked away.
In the air, it hit the blue circle thrown by Jiang Qi.
The blue circle changed its original flight direction.
It landed accurately on the neck of a big white goose, which had no time to react.
Got it!
Jiang Qi was confused.
Gong Ye was stunned.
The goose was startled.
Everyone cheered.
"Wow!!!" Jiang Wanwan, Qin Can and Wang Erya screamed as loud as geese.
"Brother Jiang Qi, you are awesome!"
"Great!" Wang Erya agreed.
"Awesome!" Qin Can gave Jiang Qi a thumbs up.
Gong Ye began to doubt his life.
The staff handed the big goose to Jiang Qi.
Although this goose was trapped in Jiang Qi's trap, Jiang Qi felt that Gong Ye also had some credit for it.
Jiang Qi thought about it and suggested: "How about I call you when we're ready to eat the stewed goose?"
Gong Ye gritted his teeth and said stubbornly: "No need."
"I'll do it myself!"
