The middle-aged woman was somewhat tempted, so she took out a hundred yuan and said, "Then I'll take ten."
Li Lechen continued to watch from the side.
The lottery is pretty lame; it's just five neatly stacked piles of cards, and you randomly draw one from them.
The middle-aged woman had ten chances to draw a prize. She seemed to have observed for a long time and was very confident. She reached directly for the thinnest stack of cards and drew several from the middle.
I counted them and found that two were still missing, so I picked out two more from that stack.
She had indeed been observing here for a long time. According to the salesman, there was one grand prize and five first prizes, so theoretically, the various prizes should be evenly distributed across the five stacks of cards. Therefore, this thinnest stack of cards, from which no one had previously drawn the grand prize, should have the highest probability of containing it.
Drawing from the middle consecutively increases your chances of winning the grand prize.
With that in mind, the middle-aged woman excitedly began scratching the lottery ticket.
Li Lechen was also watching intently. Not far away, Zhou Mi was still excitedly comparing the discounts on the promotional products with the actual savings from buying online.
“My dear master.”
Suddenly, a gentle voice sounded in my ear.
I realized that it was my smart assistant reminding me.
Startled, Li Lechen immediately looked around. Could someone be trying to steal something? In a square with so many people, it's quite normal for something to be stolen.
Li Lechen had learned his lesson in this matter. The loss ranged from a few dozen yuan to several diamonds, the value of which was unknown.
Fortunately, I only brought my phone with me today, and I had it in my hand.
"Dear Master, Master Xishua has left a message in your personal mailbox," the smart assistant said.
Huo Jiujian... "Never mind him, I'll listen to him on the platform later."
"OK."
"Wait a moment!"
"Master, is there anything else you need?"
"Could you... tell me what the message said?"
Although I'm a little afraid to speak directly with Huo Jiujian, this person seems to know a lot of things, especially since he left a message. He might have something to say, so it wouldn't hurt to listen to the message first.
The smart assistant immediately started playing Huo Jiujian's recording: "I have a way to let you get as much money as possible that you can use in the exclusive zone."
Um? !
This message was quite something. Li Lechen almost blurted out "How do I do it?" but luckily he quickly realized that he was listening to a recording.
So I quickly logged into the live streaming platform.
I really don't know the extent of Huo Jiujian's authority, but he can do many things that other permanent residents of the safe zone can't, at least on this platform.
So as soon as Li Lechen logged into the platform, he saw a pop-up notification: "[Master Xishua has requested a one-on-one video chat with you]"
Click to confirm.
Huo Jiujian appeared on the screen.
Li Lechen tried his best to use a less crowded corner of the square as a backdrop. After all, it was a private area, and he couldn't let the other party think it was a crowded place.
"I have a way to get as much of your currency as possible," Huo Jiujian repeated.
"What method?" Li Lechen asked directly.
"Guessing Game".
"A guessing game? What does that mean?"
"When it comes to guessing inanimate objects, it is ultimately a matter of probability. Through big data calculations, we can get as close to the target answer as possible."
Although he didn't fully understand, Li Lechen nodded seriously and listened to Huo Jiujian continue.
"If you find a way to win prizes through betting, and then use big data analysis, you can win prizes with a high probability."
I understood it a little better this time.
Li Lechen glanced at the plaza lottery event in front of him and wondered if there was something that could be put up and analyzed to determine with a high probability which stack of items and which area might hold the grand prize of five thousand yuan.
That sounds plausible.
"However, if such a thing existed, wouldn't everyone in your area win so many prizes that their hands cramp up?" Li Lechen questioned.
"With the global widespread adoption of smart chips, businesses will certainly stop offering these kinds of guessing games where the results can be calculated based on probability. However, since none of the people in the exclusive zone have had smart chips implanted, there should still be such games, right? After all, this industry has a long history and remains popular."
Li Lechen now fully understood what Huo Jiujian was talking about; it was essentially about using scientific methods to gamble.
Just then, the middle-aged woman next to him excitedly shouted, "I won the first prize! The first prize!"
People around looked in the direction of the sound.
Li Lechen also leaned over and glanced over; sure enough, the middle-aged woman had won the first prize of 3,000 yuan in cash.
It seems that all that homework wasn't for nothing.
Li Lechen then quickly said to Huo Jiujian, "Your method works. Tell me how to do it."
“I know that none of the people in your exclusive area have installed smart chips. I think this is a very humane thing. Although installing smart chips can instantly acquire all knowledge, once the knowledge points are artificially erased by the smart company, they will become the smartest fools.”
"Cough cough!"
Li Lechen felt that Huo Jiujian was going off on a tangent. Although the matter was indeed as described, it was a big problem, and now was not the time to solve it. What was more important was finding a legitimate way to make more money, which was a very practical matter.
"Do you believe I've already removed the smart chip myself?" Huo Jiujian suddenly asked.
"Um?"
"I knew you'd be surprised," Huo Jiujian said smugly to himself.
