Chapter 5: Drawing a prize worth $558,000——

Lucifer gave Einstein half a package of spicy and sour beef noodles that he had not put in last time, and cooked half a package of braised beef noodles for Ludwig Gauss.

Compared with Einstein's exaggerated expression when eating, like the male protagonist in "The Lonely Gourmet", Gauss's reaction was smaller than that of Einstein, but this was because he was suspected of having facial paralysis. Look at him eating, not just his face,

Even the way his neck turned red showed that he was actually very excited.

In the end, the two of them drank it all without even a drop of soup left.

Lucifer felt panicked just looking at it. He usually wouldn't go out of his way to drink soup when eating instant noodles because it felt very salty.

However, for Einstein and Gauss, this soup is full of gold... full of spices! If they don't drink it clean, there will be no punishment from heaven, and they themselves will not be able to forgive their waste!

They were reluctant to waste the soup with random spices. Moreover, the soup was so delicious that they never got tired of it no matter how much they drank. They even considered bringing bread from home next time and eating it with the soup.

Seeing how they ate so deliciously, Lucifer was a little greedy.

But now his career is just starting, and he lacks everything. He cannot waste resources to satisfy his appetite... Oh, the unopened bottle of Coke does not count. After all, he does not have good storage methods to wait until it runs out of gas.

It won’t taste good if it’s gone, so that’s a waste!

Einstein left one silver coin, Gauss thought for a while, gave two, and then the two left. As soon as Lucifer and others left, they looked at their remaining resources and lottery pool, and began to worry.

There is still half a pack of braised beef noodles and a pack of dried noodles, which can only feed two more people at most. Maybe they will be out of stock tomorrow, so I have to buy some today anyway.

But the lottery pool was too dark. He really didn't want to give money to the alarm clock. Is there any other way to save some silver coins?

Thinking of this, Lucifer finally reluctantly poked the alarm clock.

"Besides the lottery pool, is there any place where you can use silver coins? How much RMB can you convert a silver coin to? Isn't it too much to be able to exchange it for a pack of instant noodles at your place?"

Lucifer hinted...no, almost stated it.

"The lottery is a token, so I won't argue with you. Can you open a window for normal transactions and learn from other people's cheats, such as the Different World Trading Network? It's very difficult to draw some unwanted things all day long.

You will lose interest soon, and forget about any long-cherished wishes by then! Our goals are the same, and getting money from me is not your purpose, right? You should give me more help so that I can get down to business.

That’s right!”

Alarm clock: [It makes sense. After all, I am not a professional at this. The basic function is just an alarm clock, so I am still learning. If there is anything I don’t do well in the future, please remind me in time.]

Lucifer was very pleased: "Easy to say, easy to say."

Although this alarm clock has hundreds of shortcomings, there is one thing that must be praised, and that is listening to dad's advice! As long as Lucifer's words make sense and do not conflict with the commands before amnesia, the alarm clock will be adjusted accordingly.

[Open the ‘Store’ section.]

Lucifer's eyes lit up.

What will this store section look like? I hope it will allow him to write an autobiography called "Struggle in Another World with Taobao" or "The King of Dimensional Trading"! If you want to buy and sell, there are many ways to do it.

There is also a chance to make a fortune!

Unfortunately, the alarm clock was surprisingly cautious in this regard and gave Lucifer no chance to take advantage of it.

With Lucifer's expectation, the newly loaded store section slowly appeared in front of him.

I saw that this store only displays the names and pictures of 10 items, which are refreshed at 0 o'clock at a fixed time. If you don't want to buy 10 items, you can only wait for the next day - you can also refresh manually, and the handling fee is 100 silver coins.

Lucifer: "...You should really be allowed to open this store. These methods are only used to deceive your father. It's so unreasonable!"

Are you just so on guard against him?! Could he still stop doing business just because he bought and sold enough money to get a game console?!

...Oh, it seems that this is really possible.

forget about it.

Lucifer calmed down and studied the functions of this store calmly.

Looking at it, he really saw something interesting.

The ten items in the store are all the same. What he already has is spicy and sour beef noodles and a Go set. The descriptions inside are [Spicy and sour beef noodles (5 bags), 1 silver coin], and [Go set (torreya).

Wooden chessboard, agate chess pieces, nanmu go jar) x1, 100 silver coins].

This price tag is really interesting, because there is no difference between the Go set he drew from the lottery pool for 1 silver coin and the one priced at 100 silver coins.

Lucifer immediately realized the consequences of the emergence of this store - that is, he would spend more silver coins in the lottery pool in the future.

Because except for Coke and instant noodles, which are obviously wholesale prices in stores and are much more cost-effective than the lottery pool, Lucifer would prefer to draw other expensive items from the lottery pool.

For 1 silver coin, you might be able to get something that is sold in the store for 100 silver coins. What else is there to say? Of course it’s krypton gold! What if you make a profit!?

Routines! These are all routines!

Lucifer was heartbroken. He thought he saw the fourth floor, but the alarm clock actually saw the fifth floor...

Although he lost, Lucifer also recognized the rationality of this mechanism, and even instantly thought of how to effectively use the store and lottery pool to save money, so he just complained a few words in his heart and planned how to distribute the silver coins in his hand.

.

First, Lucifer spent 1 silver coin to buy [Spicy and Sour Beef Noodles (pack of 5)], then spent 1 silver coin to buy [Sprite (pack of 6)], and finally used 10 silver coins to go to the ordinary pool.

He went on for ten consecutive times until he only had 2 silver coins left on hand as working capital.

But it doesn’t matter! He believes that the money will soon increase because the cost of instant noodles has dropped significantly!

With this confidence, Lucifer didn't care much whether the lottery pool was a scam or not. He waited for the lottery results in a very calm mood.

White light, no light, golden light, white light, no light...

From the color of the light emitted during the lottery, you can basically judge the price of the item. Lucifer has only seen white light and golden light so far. I don’t know if there is a higher one——

Suddenly! A colorful light suddenly lit up in front of his eyes!

Lucifer was suddenly shocked, what had he drawn?!

Lucifer, who was originally calm, couldn't help but look forward to it. He waited without blinking for the colorful light to dissipate and for the highest-level item he had drawn so far to appear in front of him.

"………………"

Looking at this thing, Lucifer silently opened the item description, and saw that the description was marked in detail as if he was afraid that Lucifer would not know the goods: [1945 Romanee-Conti Grand Cru red wine, 2018 auction price of US$558,000]

.

——But he doesn’t drink. He just drinks the taste of Feizhai Happy Water. It’s useful to smoke this!!!

Lucifer felt very painful, but looking at the price, he couldn't say that the price was wrong, so he could only endure it.

"Are you bringing someone's auction items? What did you let them drink?"

[It’s just data copying, it doesn’t affect the other world.]

"Fine!"

Lucifer was very sad why he couldn't engage in cross-dimensional transactions, otherwise he could sell it back to the earth and earn hundreds of thousands of dollars. This wine was really a secret investment for him. I hope I have the opportunity to give it to someone who knows how to taste wine.

Well - I don’t know if such a person exists in this world.

Don't think about it, don't think about it... Even if you can't drink it, you will lose 1 silver coin at most!

Lucifer sighed, endured the discomfort of almost vomiting blood, decided to divert his attention, and took out the "Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets" he had just picked up and started reading.

When watching the scene where Harry revealed his Parseltongue, Lucifer suddenly noticed that there was a noise outside.

Lucifer closed the book and walked out a little confused. He found that John, the tailor next door, was just about to close the door. His wife and children were also standing outside waiting for John.

"What happened?" Lucifer looked around for a moment and found that it was still early, but the street seemed to be closing.

Tailor John said cheerfully: "Haven't you heard? The generous Elder Bill Forbes is going to entertain all the people of Eden again!"

Bill Gates' Bill, Forbes' Forbes rich list? This name really sounds full of money... Lucifer cursed.

"A banquet for all the people of Eden? What a big banquet that would be!"

"It's big! Don't worry, you can still get something to eat even if you go a little late!" Tailor John misunderstood Lucifer's meaning and comforted him.

Lucifer had no choice but to ask politely: "...No, I mean...if I go to eat and drink for free, won't I be punished by God?"

——A banquet for an entire city! Won’t the great elder be struck by lightning for such an extravagant act of showing off his wealth?!

Tailor John said cheerfully: "Don't worry, this is a kind act of charity by the great elder. As long as we sincerely accept his kindness and don't be ungrateful, it doesn't matter!"

Lucifer: "...That's it."

Although Tailor John spoke lightly, and could see that the great elder Forbes had probably not been punished by heaven for the banquet, Lucifer still had some questions, so in order to gain a deeper understanding of the world and clarify their brain circuits,

To make things easier for him in the future, he simply closed the door and followed John's family to the banquet location.

The banquet was held in the central square of Eden. The space was large, but it could not accommodate all the people of Eden.

When Lucifer passed by, he could see that most people took bread or barbecue and said thank you before leaving directly. Only a few people were invited to sit behind the long table, and some people directly found a place to eat standing after getting the food.

, chat with people nearby and praise the organizer of the banquet.

Just as Lucifer was observing this scene, Einstein's familiar voice suddenly sounded.

"Ah, sage!"

Looking around, I saw Einstein, who had just left his shop not long ago, sitting behind a long table and waving to him: "Please come and sit here!"

Lucifer walked over and said duplicitously: "Isn't this not good?"

"It's okay, Ludwig didn't come, there's just an extra spot, I'll just tell Grandpa Bill about it." Einstein said nonchalantly.
