Zhou Ba wax received the proceeds from the auction of the dirty puffer fish from the Daji Zao Niche Shop, including a full 10,000 pieces of incense ash, and sighed sincerely.
Zhou Ba Wa could tell with his butt that this could not be the amount of incense ash that a single player could produce. It must be some method that the rich boss used that a poor person like him could not understand but would definitely shock.
Players use real money to buy them and bid at auctions.
Damn it! Why are you spending so much money! Come to me! Beat me up with money! I’ll sell you in cash! I’ll go home and sleep peacefully with financial freedom!
You said you're doing it now. You spent a lot of money to buy a bunch of incense ash. I'm collecting a bunch of incense ash that can't buy a car or a house. It's useless. I'm short of money! I'm short of money!
Zhou Bawa sighed sadly. He and Principal Cong were mutually interested in each other. One wanted to spend cash and the other wanted to earn cash. However, the fucked-up communication mechanism of this game directly shattered Zhou Bawa's dream of getting rich.
Not to mention the useless ones, selling puffer fish to pretend to be dirty, and getting a huge sum of 1w incense ash, Zhou Ba wax should think about how to use it.
There are only two places where he needs to use incense ash. One is to find an incense burner to burn incense to upgrade, and the other is to collect tolls on the road to Xicheng.
Zhou Ba wax thought for a while and decided to upgrade first.
The first upgrade - 2000 incense ash, event branch.
The second upgrade - 4000 incense ash, event branch.
After upgrading twice, 10,000 incense ash is left at 4,000. The next upgrade will cost 6,000 incense ash. It consumes more and more and it becomes more and more difficult to upgrade.
These two times, the event branch was actually upgraded. Zhou Baqixin said that he was going to become a "big thing".
On the contrary, he hopes to improve his physical fitness. He wants to stand out from the crowd.
The result of the upgrade was like this, with 4,000 incense ash left. Zhou Bachu planned to try to go to Xicheng again in the evening to see if he could pass the bandit level. He felt that this amount was enough.
After consuming the incense ashes on Zhou Ba, he was offline. Before he went to collect the auction proceeds, he had just died while burning incense and was punished physically.
During the day, although Zhou Bachu had no classes today, his boss, Qiu Miao, was going to release a new video next week, so he was not free and needed to write a script to make the video.
While the video was being edited, a message came through WeChat. Zhou Bashi picked up his phone and looked at it. Ran Qiuran came to him and asked him to come to the small courtyard of the Youth League Committee as soon as possible.
The Youth League Committee’s small courtyard is a small building in their school campus. It is actually the rest and activity room of the school leaders. When the campus was first built, it was built into an antique small courtyard. It usually serves as the school’s facade to entertain important guests.
Reception here.
Ran Qiuran suddenly called Zhou Baqu to come to the Youth League Committee courtyard, which made people confused. The tone of the message seemed to be urgent.
Zhou Bachi passed by, and when he got to the place, he saw Ran Qiuran, the Youth League Committee teacher, and an old man who was quite old but dressed smartly and looked like he had an unusual status. These three people.
"Minister Ran, what's your job?"
Zhou Bashi came over and asked, and Ran Qiuran replied:
"Oh, we were playing cards and we were short of one."
"..."
Zhou Ba Wa didn't know what to say or what to do. He just followed him into the house and played cards with him.
When they entered the room, Ran Qiuran introduced him, saying that Zhou Baxu was an officer in their department, and that he was familiar with the Youth League Committee teacher. Needless to say, the old man, named He Shenggen, was the president of the Northern Bridge Association.
There is a bridge club in Bincheng, and the youth league committee teacher is the consultant teacher of the bridge club. The scale is not simple, because the youth league committee teacher himself is a member of the Northern Bridge Association, so he leads the bridge club well and often participates in various bonus competitions.
Anyone who plays bridge and is involved in the bridge circle knows that the bridge circle is actually very deep. Because bridge was a sport that was relatively popular among intellectuals at a certain period, there are many big names in this interest circle, including those with two backgrounds in politics and business.
Many prize tournaments in China are sponsored by big players who love bridge. Sometimes, when everyone gets together to play cards, friendships naturally develop.
This He Shenggen, President He, as the president of the Northern Bridge Association, is very well-known in the entire northern bridge circle. He must be more than just a poker player. He is a hobby, and his main business is obviously "either rich or not"
"Expensive", but now that I am getting older, I have retreated to the background.
Zhou Baqi was called here to join in the card game, so naturally he would not study it, but judging from the attitudes of Ran Qiuran and the Youth League Committee teachers, they should know a lot about President He's main business.
A few people sat down at the table, made tea, and while chatting, a card game was played.
The rules of bridge are relatively complicated. It is not as simple as sitting down and drawing cards and playing cards. It is a fair competitive game through various agreed rules for calling cards and calculating tricks. The test is card counting and intellectual game, otherwise it would not be possible.
It will become a popular sport among intellectuals.
To put it simply, you need to form two teams first. Bridge is a two-on-two cooperative partnership game. The Youth League Committee teacher and Ran Qiuran are on the same team, and President He and Zhou Baqi are on the other team. They use a universal contract.
This combination makes people sweat.
Zhou Baqi had never played bridge much. He only knew the rules briefly. Although he, a novice, was allowed to read the contract table, no matter how he played, his mental game mode could not keep up with that of an experienced player.
The Youth League Committee teacher and Ran Qiuran are both bridge veterans. Originally, one of them was teaming up with President He. Zhou Baqi was here to accompany the loser. However, President He seemed to prefer challenges and said he was bullying.
What's the point of being a newbie? He wants to take a newbie and beat two veterans.
As a result, it became what it is today.
Zhou Ba Wa didn't care, there was no pressure at all, and he didn't care who was in front of him, the president, or the big boss in the business circle. Anyway, the only person he interacted with was an old man playing cards.
Ran Qiuran was anxious and kept giving him looks, asking him to behave better and not to hold him back.
In fact, it is not impossible for experienced bridge players to lead newbies, because of the gameplay, as long as the contract is called, when the cards are played, one person can help play out all the cards of his teammates.
Therefore, Ran Qiuran kept winking at Zhou Baqi, asking him to cooperate honestly and hand over the right to play cards to the veteran, so as not to offend others if he was held back, and at the same time, she would let herself go.
However, can Zhou Ba wax have her delicate thoughts?
Zhou Baqiu could only understand roughly, oh, I want to make this President He happy, right? No problem, I'll take care of it.
At the beginning of the poker game, Zhou Bawa was all over the place in bidding for tricks. Even his teammate, President He, couldn't get in the middle of the conversation. The same was true for playing cards. He had all the cards in his hands.
One sticks out, old man, just lie down and don't move, I'll take you flying.
President He, a very wise old man, was dumbfounded by Zhou Baqu's reckless operation. Ran Qiuran and the Youth League Committee teacher next to him were so frightened that they were sweating on their heads.
In the end, Ran Qiuran couldn't stand it any longer, so she asked Zhou Baqiu to pour some water and take a break as an excuse. In fact, he wanted to ease the increasingly embarrassing atmosphere.
But President He didn’t want to, but he laughed and said:
"Xiao Ran, there is such a genius in your school with amazing card counting ideas. Don't beat around the bush and stop him. Let him do his best. I was really surprised today."
