Ten o'clock in the morning.

In the Qu Family Small Bedroom, Dong Xuebin and Qu Yunxuan were lying on the warm bed talking.

"It's too late anyway, let's go after lunch."

"You little rascal, you're just delaying my business." The Power of Time and Wealth 280

"Spring Auction It's still early, why are you in a hurry."

"What you said is easy. It will be too late to worry when the shooting is about to start." Qu Yunxuan glanced at him, "... pass the phone to aunt." After receiving the phone, Qu Yunxuan still called Auction House, saying that he would go in the afternoon. After hanging up the phone, he saw Dong Xuebin next to him. took out a cigarette and put it in his mouth. Qu Yunxuan smashed his mouth and complained, "The older you get, the less you learn. You are not in good health yet. Don't smoke all the time." He picked up the lighter on the table and clicked it. Qu Yunxuan lit it for him. "Just smoke one. You are not allowed to smoke later."

Dong Xuebin smiled and said, "Why do you look like my mother?"

"Nonsense." Qu Yunxuan hit him on the head.

"Haha, by the way, how is the company's recent performance? Did you have a small shoot last time?"

Qu Yunxuan reached out and took out an ashtray from a drawer of Bedside Table, and placed it next to their pillows, "I was just about to tell you, the photo shoot was just completed a while ago, but the effect was not ideal, maybe because my aunt didn't do it properly. Well, maybe it was because the collision with other Auction House was too serious, or maybe the publicity was not good enough. Anyway, the items that were confiscated were not very good. There were not many people at the auction that day, and even fewer people held up placards. About a dozen items were not auctioned."

Dong Xuebin blinked, "A big loss?"

"That's not a big deal. It's a bit of a loss. The publicity costs are not recovered."

"Then how much total assets do we have now?"

"In terms of funding, it's about 30 million. It's still the same amount as after the last Jadeite Special Auction auction. It hasn't increased much. The competition is too fierce."

Dong Xuebin said, "Take your time and strive to have assets over 50 million this year."

Qu Yunxuan shook his head, "Fifty million is too difficult, I think it's pretty good if I can reach 31 million."

Speaking of this, Qu Yunxuan suddenly remembered something and her face straightened. She grabbed the warm autumn clothes and put them on. She turned around and sat on the bed and looked at Dong Xuebin, "Xiao Bin, let me tell you something. Yesterday Hui Lan called my aunt and she asked me to have a good talk with you. I think it is quite necessary."

Dong Xuebin said, nervous and confused, "Ahem, tell me."

Qu Yunxuan said, "Don't open your Mercedes Business in the future, and don't bring your watch either."

"Ah? Why?" Dong Xuebin thought she was going to talk about emotional matters, but she didn't expect such a sentence to come, and she felt relieved immediately.

Qu Yunxuan said worriedly, "Hui Lan said that at County Discipline Inspection Committee, there are reports of you every day, sometimes one or two, sometimes three or four. Most of them report you for corruption and bribery. They say that you drive a car worth 1.5 million yuan and have a watch worth less than 2 million yuan, but With your monthly salary of several thousand yuan, you will never be able to afford these things in your lifetime. "Dong Xuebin has a good reputation and has saved the lives of ordinary people on the front line in several battles, but people can never satisfy everyone. There will always be people who dislike Dong Xuebin, and it is normal for there to be reports.

But Dong Xuebin didn't expect there to be so many, "Three or four messages a day? So many?"

Qu Yunxuan Well, "Hui Lan said City Discipline Inspection Committee even the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection may receive your report letter." The Power of Time and Wealth 280

Dong Xuebin said angrily, "Brothers are well behaved, but if you like to report, let them report it. Didn't you say that last time? The car is also recorded on Auction Company. You lent it to me. Even if it is checked, it will be nothing. If I suddenly stop driving now, I will feel guilty, right?"

"That's not what they said."

"What do you say?"

Qu Yunxuan said patiently, "You used to be the Public Security Bureau deputy director of a county. Although you were very young and had achieved some achievements, you were limited to Yantai County's palm-sized place, which was not eye-catching. However, the Museum Theft Case case you recently solved is a major case that has attracted the attention of the whole country. Your name is also known to many people, so there are so many reporting letters., so people are paying more and more attention to it. In this case, you have to be more careful and no longer care about your image like before. For example, if the village secretary drives a Lamborghini, others will not bother to trouble him because his level is not that high. But if a mayor drives around in a Lamborghini, do you think it will be the same? He will be stabbed in the back by the people."

Dong Xuebin coughed, "Did Sister Xie tell you?"

"Well, she said she warned you before, but you didn't listen to her, so she asked me to talk to you again."

"I know what you two said, but it's not that serious, right?"

Qu Yunxuan said earnestly, "Why not? County Discipline Inspection Committee's report letter, Hui Lan can still suppress it, but what about the city? What about the province? What if someone sees you uncomfortable and suddenly asks someone to investigate, what will you do? This kind of thing itself is unclear., if I lend you a car, it can also be understood as a disguised bribe. That is to say, as long as someone in the city or province wants to touch you, it is very easy. If you use words, you will have to be dismissed from your job and investigated. At this time, you have made a contribution, and the superiors may not take any action due to the impact, but no one can guarantee that they will not do it in the future. Do you understand?"

Dong Xuebin also felt the seriousness of the matter and remained silent.

"Listen to Auntie, don't drive the car for the time being, and don't take the watch at home."

Youdao is that it is easy to go from frugality to luxury, but it is difficult to go from luxury to frugality. Dong Xuebin is used to driving good cars. Now he is really not used to it when he is allowed to go back to before liberation. But Aunt Xuan and Sister Xie Dong Xuebin was also frightened by's words. What Sister Xie said was that she might be able to suppress the report letter from Yantai County, but what about the reports from the city and the province? Sister Xie's hand can't be stretched that long. Besides, more and more people are being offended by Dong Xuebin. If we don't protect him, who has the connections to go to the city and get rid of him all at once? This is a bad thing.

It seems like you really need to keep a low profile?

Dong Xuebin said, "But my car has been driven, and the transfer information on the bank has always been there. Didn't you transfer money to my card several times, hundreds of thousands or millions, this... can't be eliminated. If someone really touches me, I won't be able to escape no matter what?"

Qu Yunxuan frowned hesitantly, "What should we do?"

Dong Xuebin thought for a while, "Can the money I Stone Gambling make count as my own?"

"... Did you go to the Local Taxation Bureau to pay taxes?"

"Uh, no, isn't there a tax when you put it up for auction?"

"That's the buyer's tax. It's different. Besides, Stone Gambling itself is a very peripheral thing. The money earned here... isn't that fair?"

Dong Xuebin knows that the best way now is to make some clean money, legal and reasonable money. As long as there are no problems with the money, it will be his own assets. Not to mention the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection, even Central Commission for Discipline Inspection will not be afraid of their investigation. Moreover, if he drives a Mercedes-Benz and wears a famous watch in the future, the problem will not be big. If he spends the money he earns, no one can say anything, but... Where can he earn this legal money? Judging from the Mercedes-Benz of Dong Xuebin, it would be about right if you make at least a few million.

Doing stocks? How to explain the original capital that can be used to trade stocks?

Stone Gambling again? But the matter of Stone Gambling itself is a bit unclear.

After lunch, Qu Yunxuan drove back to Yun De Auction Company. Dong Xuebin watched TV alone with Aunt Xuan's house, thinking about it while watching, every time When he thought that his official title would be threatened at any time, he was upset and had no intention of doing anything else. After strolling for a while, Dong Xuebin put his mobile phone and wallet in his pocket, turned off the TV and went out, going downstairs for a walk.  The Power of Time and Wealth 280

How to solve it?

Is there any good way?

As soon as I left the community, the sound of text messages on my mobile phone rang.

When I looked at the number, I saw that it was from Qu Yunxuan who had just left not long ago. It said: I want you to be careful, Hui Lan also means the same thing. It's not that someone will really want to touch you, but I'm afraid that you will regret it later. It's late. Well, just don't drive when you go back to Yantai County in a few days. As for other things, we'll talk about it later. Don't think so much. Well, of course, if you can buy a lottery ticket and win a few million, there will be no problem, haha.

Dong Xuebin smiled, put the phone away in his pocket, and continued walking forward.

One step, two steps, three steps, he suddenly froze and stood on the same spot, Huh? Aunt Xuan What did you just say? Lottery? Lottery? Yes, of course the money earned from lottery tickets is legal. If you can win the jackpot, wouldn't everything be solved?

That's it!

Dong Xuebin looked up in high spirits and glanced around. There was a Welfare Lottery Shop across the road. He just did what he said. Dong Xuebin walked on the crosswalk to cross the road and walked straight into the store. There were quite a lot of people inside. The boss was typing numbers behind the machine, and several lottery ticket buyers lined up to choose numbers. There was a TV and a school blackboard with many numbers and numbers written on them, all of which were the digital probabilities of Double Color Ball this year.

"Do you think there will be one in the next issue 06?"

"It's doubtful. Didn't it just come out in the last issue? I think the numbers 08 and 09 are interesting."

"Lao Liu, listen to me, there must be numbers 13 and 14 in this issue. If you don't believe me, just buy one and try it!"

"I think 02 might be more 'sexual'."

Dong Xuebin Watching the heated discussion among several people, he really can't understand the thoughts of the lottery players. In his opinion, Ming Ming, this probability question is simply unsolvable. Any number may appear, but he doesn't know why the brothers still think about it all day long. Isn't the machine selection done? Of course, this may be the fun of lottery. Just like Capital City people like to chat and talk, it cannot be said that this is meaningless at all.

Dong Xuebin looked left and right, looking at several lottery tickets in the store.

Which one to buy?

Double Color Ball? This one has the biggest bonus, let's take a look first. Dong Xuebin had paid attention to these before, but rarely read them after entering the system, so he couldn't remember the rules very clearly. After observing for a moment and asking a few old lottery players, Dong Xuebin shook his head in his heart. Double Color Ball The bonuses are large, and the gameplay is simple. You can do it yourself My back is temporarily unavailable. During the weekly lottery draw, there is about an hour between the deadline for purchasing and the lottery draw. In other words, Dong Xuebin has to accumulate at least three months of back to have any hope of winning. Dong Xuebin is worried about being reported, and obviously cannot wait three months.

The back is only about five minutes, so I need to find a shorter one.

Dong Xuebin continues to search, which one is it? Which one has a shorter deadline from purchase to draw?

"Little brother, which one do you want to buy? Let me introduce it to you?" The shop owner over there finished his work and walked over to Dong Xuebin to greet him.

Dong Xuebin said, "Oh, is there any lottery with a shorter draw time?"

The shop owner was stunned, "What kind of game do you want to play?"

"Well, let me use an analogy. It's the kind of lottery ticket that won't take long to draw the prize after the purchase deadline."

"Oh." The shop owner suddenly said, "You are talking about PK Shi, right?"

Dong Xuebin blinked, "PK Shi? What kind of rule is this?"

The shop owner explained, "The detailed rules are written on a drawing board over there. Let me tell you briefly. They are similar to Chongqing and Shi Shi Cai in several places. Every bet is two yuan, and the lottery will be drawn every five minutes, which means that the deadline is one minute after the purchase. At about 10 seconds, you can get the lottery result, and there are many ways to play it. Anyway, the highest bonus is to choose 12345678910. Arrange these ten numbers in order. If they are all arranged correctly, you can get a bonus of 888,888 yuan, which is also the highest bonus for a single bet."

Dong Xuebin felt happy, hey, this quite meets the conditions.

"What about the cap?" Dong Xuebin asked.

The shop owner said, "You mean the prize pool, right? PK Shi doesn't have a prize pool. Anyway, the current maximum prize is 5 million yuan. If four people win the first prize, they can still get 888,888 yuan. If the total jackpot amount exceeds 5 million, it will be divided equally like Double Color Ball. Anyway, the cap is 5 million in one period. Well, you can read the instructions over there for details, they are all written down."

"Okay, thank you very much."

Dong Xuebin walked over and studied it.

five minutes...

Ten minutes...

Twenty minutes...

Dong Xuebin finally figured out the details and it is feasible. This PK Shi method is absolutely feasible! That's it! It just solves my urgent need!

Dong Xuebin was not in a hurry to buy, because there were not many backs, and he had to guarantee success at the first time. He stood in front of the PK Shi lottery TV and watched it without blinking. The PK Shi lottery was not broadcast live on home TV, but with a dedicated frequency band in the store. The lottery is broadcast directly from Welfare Lottery Center on TV. There are ten racing cars on it. Whoever runs first will have the first number on the car, and so on. In fact, it is just a game-like approach. This is not essentially different from Double Color Ball's ball shake. It is all a matter of probability.

Ten minutes later.

"PK Shi is about to open."

"Let's take a look. I just bought two bets."

"I bought one too, the one that chooses ten."

"Hey, it's not easy to win the tenth choice. It depends on your luck."

Dong Xuebin's eyes were fixed, and he also looked over. PK Shi The purchase was closing, and the lottery hadn't started yet. After waiting for a short while, ten cars from one to ten appeared on the starting line. After a beep, several cars started at the same time and rushed out of the starting line!

"Run away! Number eight is number one!"

"Oh, it's the same as the one I bought."

"Don't worry, the starting ranking is definitely not the final result. They are all alternate. You won't know until the end of the count."

The lottery players were chirping and talking, and some even clenched their fists and muttered the numbers they bought.

The current rankings from first to tenth are: 8,10,1,9,6,5,7,2,4,3.

"It's almost over, it's almost over."

"Why is No. 8 down? Get up there! Drive! Rush!"

Under the watchful eyes of Dong Xuebin and several lottery players, ten cars finally crossed the finish line, and the final results came out, 1,2,5,8,10,9,7,3,4,6!

"Ouch! Almost!" one person complained.

Another lottery player also sighed and shook his head, "I won't buy this again. It's even harder to win than Double Color Ball."

"I'm done, I just got two numbers right."

Dong Xuebin stared at the screen and memorized these numbers quickly in his mind.

Although this kind of lottery seems simple, in fact, anyone who knows a little bit about advanced mathematics can actually calculate it. With ten number combinations, the chance that you can choose the correct sequence in one lottery ticket is almost slim. Otherwise, there will be no 880,000 grand prize. It is not that easy to win. Playing this thing really depends on luck. If you are not lucky, even if you spend millions to buy it, you will not win the 880,000!

Of course, except for Dong Xuebin, he naturally won't rely on luck.

OK! Back two minutes!

Time suddenly retreats!

As soon as the lottery shop's voice dropped, Dong Xuebin, who came back to his senses, saw a few old lottery players gathered around the TV.

"PK Shi is about to open."

"Let's take a look. I just bought two bets."

"I bought one too, the one that chooses ten."

"Hey, it's not easy to win the tenth choice. It depends on your luck."

Coming! Dong Xuebin hurriedly walked to the shop owner and the lottery machine, and said quickly, "PK Shi can still be sold now?"

The shop owner looked at the time and said, "It's okay, but you have to hurry up. The transaction will end soon. Do you want to choose by machine? It's faster to choose by machine."

"No, I say you fight."

"... Okay, it's still too late if you hurry up."

"It's a game of choosing ten." Dong Xuebin quickly pinched his fingers, recalling the sequence of numbers on the TV, "The ten numbers are...1,2,5,8,10,9,7,3,4,6."

The shopkeeper did it very quickly, "How many bets should I buy?"

Dong Xuebin thought about it and said, "Six bets!"

If he can win the prize, six bets of 880,000 will be more than 5 million, so the prize will be all his. Well, of course, the premise is that no one else wins the jackpot again, otherwise the 5 million prize will be divided equally.

Snap! The shop owner raised his hand from the machine and said, "Huh, okay, I just caught up."

Dong Xuebin also exhaled, "Thank you very much."

The shop owner smiled, pointed to the TV over there and said, "Just wait for the results, they will be out in a while."

Dong Xuebin holds the lottery ticket he bought in his hand, not knowing whether he will win or not. It is mainly because it is such a random thing, and it is inevitable that there will be some small changes if the lottery is not guaranteed.

God bless you!!
