Chapter 69 Lottery

Purchasing the three skills had cost a total of sixty thousand sin points. Wang Xiuyuan didn't plan on holding onto the remaining 13,500 sin points; he intended to try his luck at the [grand prize wheel] to see what kind of good things this thing could produce.

Upon clicking the draw interface for the [grand prize wheel], a system notification box immediately popped up.

"Each draw of the grand prize wheel will consume one thousand sin points or merit points. A ten-draw streak is guaranteed to reward one item."

When he saw this prompt, Wang Xiuyuan felt a faint ache in his liver. As a notorious 'African Chieftain' in the gambling world, Wang Xiuyuan had never achieved a satisfactory result in his previous life, whether it was playing cards or drawing prizes.

His best stroke of luck was winning a super flashy rice cooker at a company annual meeting, only for it to burn out the very first time he used it at home, and he couldn't even find after-sales service to repair it.

The phrase 'ten-draw streak guarantees one win' was nothing less than a blatant warning to Wang Xiuyuan that even with a draw, he might end up with nothing at all.

As a novice gambler who was both unskilled and addicted to playing, Wang Xiuyuan's main philosophy was that participation was what mattered most. After a moment of hesitation, he quickly clicked the draw button, fearing he might chicken out.

The grand prize wheel spun at high speed. After more than ten seconds, the pointer finally stopped on 'Thank you for your patronage.'

"Motherfucker~"

At this moment, Wang Xiuyuan couldn't help but curse. This sudden outburst of anger startled the people around him. Holt hurried to Wang Xiuyuan's side and asked in a low voice:

"What's wrong, Boss? Is there some kind of emergency?"

Only after the curse escaped his lips did Wang Xiuyuan realize he had lost his composure. Facing Holt's inquiry, he had to make up a random reason to brush it off.

"It's nothing, I just suddenly remembered some matters I forgot to handle. How much longer until those things are brought back?"

"There are still things at seven locations to collect. If everything goes smoothly, it should be finished within about an hour."

Wang Xiuyuan was very satisfied with Holt's answer. It provided a clear progress report and a relatively accurate estimated completion time. Although this answer didn't seem difficult, many corporate drones simply could not handle such small tasks properly.

This inconspicuous little question was a major test of Holt's control over the progress of the matter and his familiarity with the traffic routes between these seven points.

Without very solid basic skills and a sense of responsibility, Holt definitely wouldn't have been able to provide this answer the instant Wang Xiuyuan asked.

When most people were faced with this kind of question from Wang Xiuyuan, they could only give a vague answer through estimation, and most would even need to ask others before providing a response. This was exactly where the gap between people subtly widened.

"I understand. Call me once they have all returned. I still have some matters to plan out carefully; don't disturb me."

After speaking, Wang Xiuyuan walked alone to a deserted corner to continue the draw.

Hitting 'Thank you for your patronage' on the very first system draw was definitely a mood killer, but Wang Xiuyuan had always been a stubborn person. Even if he was unhappy, he would push through and try again.

*Ding, reward: one set of treasure map coordinates.*

Wang Xiuyuan didn't stop to check what the so-called treasure map coordinates were. In his view, it was at most some antiques.

If luck was poor, these so-called treasure map coordinates might only yield a few hundred thousand dollars in cash. He knew these black-hearted things all too well.

So Wang Xiuyuan chose to continue starting the prize wheel draw, but the system indeed did not disappoint him; the pointer stopped once again on 'Thank you for your patronage.'

To ensure he would gain something tonight, Wang Xiuyuan went directly for a ten-draw streak this time.

'Thank you for your patronage', 'Thank you for your patronage'... Six consecutive 'Thank you for your patronage' prompts appeared until the winning prompt finally showed up on the seventh draw.

*Ding, reward: French Proficiency.*

'Thank you for your patronage'

*Ding, reward: A set of production formulas for seventy-two types of counterfeit alcohol.*

'Thank you for your patronage'

To actually win two items in a ten-draw streak was already a very high winning probability for a famous 'African Chieftain' like Wang Xiuyuan. He considered this round of drawing a huge profit.

If nothing else, the price of French Proficiency alone in the system store was as high as ten thousand sin points, which would require taking out at least twenty people to afford.

Furthermore, there were the Seventy-two Counterfeit Alcohol Production Formulas. After checking the system store, Wang Xiuyuan was surprised to find that the price of this item was as high as two hundred thousand sin points. Regardless of whether these formulas were useful or not, looking at the price of two hundred thousand sin points alone, he had made a killing.

Moreover, wasn't winning the production formulas for these counterfeit alcohols a great thing for Wang Xiuyuan!

He could use these formulas to continuously produce counterfeit alcohol to push into the market. The gains in terms of both money and sin points would not be small, and this was a continuous and stable channel.

The only difficulty was how to open up sales channels—that is, how to get these counterfeit alcohols onto the menus of bars and nightclubs in America and around the world to be consumed.

Selling counterfeit alcohol was a very low-class business; not only was it illegal, it was also very undignified. A super-rich man like Wang Xiuyuan could never be associated with this business; he had to find an agent.

Opening the treasure map coordinates rewarded by the system draw, this treasure location was actually in a village called Hoxne in the distant Suffolk County, England.

When he saw this location, Wang Xiuyuan's head throbbed. Where would he find the spare time to run off to England for treasure hunting? Most importantly, he didn't even know how much value these treasure map coordinates held.

If the economic value hidden by these treasure map coordinates was particularly high, then it would be a happy occasion for everyone. He just feared that after the hardship of opening these coordinates, there would only be a few pitiful gold and silver coins inside; that would be tragic.

Wang Xiuyuan didn't have much expectation in his heart because he saw very clearly that the keyword displayed by the system was 'treasure map coordinates' rather than 'treasure coordinates.'

The keywords were different, and the meaning contained behind them was worlds apart. Wang Xiuyuan was accustomed to speculating about people and situations with the worst intentions; it was precisely because of this good habit that he rarely suffered losses or was deceived.
