Chapter 27 A Cheap Trick
Jie Zuo stood at the crossroads of Bize City, his empty stomach reminding him of what his top priority was now.
Jie Zuo took out an ordinary can from his small package with anticipation on his face. His mind was full of thinking that "Bai Fumei" was wrong, and he thought that it was a scene of a rich, rich and handsome man marrying Bai Fumei.
The jar has been with Jie Zuo for a long time. If Jie Zuo hadn't packed his luggage, he would have even forgotten about it.
The waste recycling stations in Bize City are easy to find and there are many. As a city that claims that as long as you have money you can buy anything, a lot of garbage is produced every day, so it makes sense to set up many waste recycling stations.
The city of Bize often gives Jie Zuo a feeling of confusion in time and space. You can see modern high-rise buildings and simple shacks. The most interesting thing is that these two buildings may be neighbors.
There is a sci-fi-looking sports car running on the street, but in front of it there might be a bullock cart blocking the road.
The residents here are confused and crazy. They have a special sense for money, but most of them have no more than junior high school education.
Xie Zuo did not sell it at a scrap recycling station, but went to many recycling stations. This is less likely to be noticed.
But the unit price of the jar was too low. Maybe the jar never thought that it would be sold at such a low price, and it was sold many times.
As evening approached, Xie Zuo's result from a hard afternoon was only 600 yuan.
Jie Zuo was very dissatisfied. In this bustling city, six hundred yuan might not even afford a better hotel, and it was only a few hours before dark...
Pack your own money and prepare to find another way.
In the evening, people who had finished their dinner early were walking in the square, and some people were handing out leaflets here, trying to trick a few old men and women into buying their health care products that "cure all diseases."
Jie Zuo took a fancy to a man. Judging from his clothes, this middle-aged man in his forties had a pretty good living condition. And judging from his spitting and other uncivilized behavior, he is not a very knowledgeable Yazi.
Such a person is a born fat sheep - he may not have enough knowledge, but he is very courageous. He accumulates part of his wealth at a young age by being bolder than others.
He has this blind confidence in himself that no one else is as smart as him.
The most important thing is that he pays great attention to his own interests and can make surprising decisions when his interests are violated.
Jie Zuo wiped the saliva from the corner of his mouth and finished thinking.
What you have to do now is to approach him gently without disturbing him. Then catch him, remove the head and eat it. The protein is five times that of beef...
Ahem, that's not right. I approached him gently, then patted his shoulder, and said in his surprised eyes: "Friend, I've heard of An..." "Ahem," Jie Zuo patted his head and went back to the stage.
Then a smile bloomed on his face again: "Friend, would you like to play a game?"
"Are you crazy?"
The uncle broke free from the hand on his shoulder.
"You know too much." After finishing speaking, Jie Zuo rolled his eyes: "But it has nothing to do with this. I have some money that I want to give to you. You just need to play a game with me." After saying that, Jie Zuo shook his head and didn't know. The black cloth bag I took from there made a clear sound of coins hitting the bag.
The uncle glanced at Xie Zuo suspiciously, and then at the black bag. There must be money in the bag, but I can't tell how much it is.
"If you want to give it away, just give it to me. What kind of game are you playing?"
"No, no, no." Jie Zuo stretched out a finger and shook it, "You have to play a game with me before I can give you the money."
"Okay, okay. But if you lie to me, I will beat your mother so hard that she won't recognize you." The uncle waved his fist.
"Of course, I'll just stand here and won't leave. Now I'll tell you the rules."
Jie Zuo cleared his throat: "The rules are like this, you put some money here to me, and then every ten seconds, I will give you one-tenth of this part of the money. When the principal is completely paid, the game will continue. During this period, you can add principal, but the return time for the newly added principal becomes forty seconds, and one-fifteenth of it will be returned. I have the final say when the game stops."
"You mean, after paying the principal, you will still give me one-tenth of my principal every ten seconds?"
Sure enough, people in Bize are very sensitive to money, and they can understand such complicated rules in one go.
"Right, that is it."
The suspicion in the uncle's eyes became even more serious. Just like what this person said, this rule is purely for giving away money. But if this person stops the game before paying back my principal, I will beat him up and get my money back.
After making up his mind, the uncle took out ten dollars from his pocket. Be cautious the first time.
However, this was completely within Jie Zuo's expectation, and the first amount would not be very large.
Jie Zuo put ten dollars into the black bag and started counting the seconds.
When ten seconds were up, he took out a dollar from the bag and gave it to the uncle.
The uncle held a dollar, his cautious expression not weakening at all.
Two minutes later, the uncle who got his principal back had two more yuan. Although there are only two pieces, they feel completely different.
The uncle yelled for more capital, rummaged through his pockets, only to find a two hundred note and handed it to Jie Zuo.
The return cycle of this two hundred yuan is forty seconds, and one-fifteenth of it will be returned. The previous ten yuan was still one yuan per ten seconds.
The game has been going smoothly so far. After returning the uncle's 200 principal, the uncle has earned more than 60 yuan.
Now the uncle is in a very excited mood, counting the seconds in his mouth, giving one piece for ten seconds, 12 for forty seconds.
"How is it? I didn't lie to you!"
"Hehe, no...no" the uncle was a little excited. It felt really good to pick up money from the ground.
"Let's do this! I'll wait for you here for a while, and you can go home and get the money, okay!"
Jie Zuo said thoughtfully.
The uncle was overjoyed. He regretted not investing more just now.
"Okay, okay, I'm committed to your brother." After saying that, the uncle hurriedly ran away.
Jie Zuo waited for a few minutes before the uncle came back, took out a thousand yuan and handed it to Jie Zuo.
Jie Zuo saw that the uncle's pocket was still bulging, which meant that he must have more money, but he had not taken out all of it.
The return time and return ratio have been newly determined. In principle, the time is getting longer and the ratio is getting smaller and smaller.
The game continued. After a few minutes, Jie Zuo said to the uncle: "Uncle, actually I don't have much money in my bag, and you can't make much either. I definitely can't continue this game forever."
"Then... what should we do?" The uncle was a little panicked. He had just come out of his one thousand yuan capital and was about to make money.
"How about this? You call more people and let them play. Then they leave their money with me and I can pay you the interest. The game can still go on."
"After listening to Jie Zuoyi's words, uncle suddenly realized. Just wait for me to come right away."
Not long after, the uncle gathered twenty or thirty people. After Jie Zuo introduced the rules to them, these people put six to seven thousand yuan in Jie Zuo's place one after another.
These people have different return times and different return ratios.
After a few more minutes, Jie Zuo repeated what he had just said to the uncle to these people. These guys who had just spent their capital and were preparing to make a big fortune immediately went to recruit people.
In this way, people kept coming, and those who came kept pulling people in.
Jie Zuo once again experienced the madness of this city. In less than three hours, no less than a thousand people gathered around Jie Zuo.
Half an hour later, Jie Zuo called the more than 100 people who had just arrived to him: "Everyone has made money, right?" The 100 people nodded with joy on their faces.
Xie Zuo continued: "I am ready to stop playing, but once I stop, those who have not paid out their principal will definitely come to arrest me. If I am arrested, you will also spit out the money you just earned. Please think of a way. , so that I can avoid being caught.”
After finishing speaking, Xie Zuo ignored them and shouted to the crowd: "The last chance to increase the principal."
It was irrational for the crowd to be affected by the surrounding atmosphere at this time. Many people paid, some even paid 10,000 yuan.
After Jie Zuo put the money into his pocket, he smiled and nodded to the crowd.
Immediately afterwards, there was a shout from the crowd, and the two people fought each other. The chaos is getting bigger and bigger, with people constantly attacking others and others fighting back.
When the police arrived and the crowd calmed down, Jie Zuo, who was standing in the middle holding a black bag, had disappeared.
