Chapter 68 Still No
Doesn’t that mean that I got another 600,000 or 70,000 US dollars for free?

Everyone sighed in their hearts: When luck comes, it is unstoppable!
Isn't it? It came to me on its own.

"Brother Lin, you can go buy a lottery ticket and try it. There is a scratch-off lottery shop in front." Qiao Yufan encouraged.

Lin Yuan was surprised: "There are scratch tickets in the United States?"

Henry smiled immediately.

He explained to Lin Yuan that not only did the United States have scratch-off tickets, but they were also much crazier than those in China. The annual sales were almost twenty times that of China.

The population is less than one-third of China's, but 20 times larger than China's. There are only two words to describe it: awesome.

Scratch tickets have become a popular form of entertainment due to their immediacy, simplicity and versatility. Scratch tickets have a wide market worldwide, and their popularity varies in different regions.

"Then you can give it a try." Lin Yuan also wanted to know whether the treasure hunting instrument would react to scratch cards.

If there was one, Lin Yuan wouldn't have to bring money with him when he went out. He could just go to a scratch card shop to withdraw money.

So, they went to a nearby scratch-off store, which was quite crowded. This thing is actually gambling, and it can be addictive.

Since Qiao Yufan and the others had drunk the soup along with Lin Yuan, they planned to try their luck after coming in.

When Lin Yuan’s treasure-hunting instrument was turned on, the entire store was covered.

Unfortunately, the treasure hunter didn't work at all. It seems that the treasure hunter has no effect on scratch tickets.

Lin Yuan thought about it and thought it made sense. Scratch tickets themselves were of no value and could not be considered treasures. The treasure-hunting instrument was looking for treasures, so naturally there was no reaction.

Since he was already there, Lin Yuan just bought ten tickets to try his luck.

Qiao Yufan and the others scratched their tickets, some won prizes, but all lost money. After they scratched their tickets, they all looked at Lin Yuan. In their minds, Lin Yuan's luck was better than theirs, so he should be able to leave this store with a smile, right?

"The whole army is wiped out. It all depends on Brother Lin." Huo Qingtong said helplessly.

In fact, I didn’t take it too seriously. I didn’t lose much. I just played around with it and didn’t have any expectations.

Lin Yuan started blowing.

"Missed."

"No."

"Go on, Mo."

"It's still not good."

Li Qiushui glared at Qiao Yufan and said, "Shut your stinky mouth!"

Okay, Qiao Yufan shut up.

But the situation did not improve. Out of ten scratch tickets, only one $10 ticket was won. With such a winning rate, even a dog would shake his head, let alone Lin Yuan?

"Brother, don't play this thing in the future. It's so deceptive." Lin Yuan said to the audience in the live broadcast room.

The guys in the live broadcast room didn't care about Lin Yuan's feelings. They were all having fun. Some of them even got close to him and showed off their "achievements".

It's rare to see Lin Yuan get humiliated, so of course I'm happy!

Before, it was hard to watch this guy picking up bargains and making a fortune every day! Now, I feel comfortable.

"No! I have to go out and find some bargains to restore my confidence." Lin Yuan couldn't help but say.

Qiao Yufan took out his phone and said to everyone, "Let's go here. It's very close to here. It's only about ten minutes' walk away. It's a small flea market."

Well, you are well prepared!
Everyone agreed to go treasure hunting. They came out this time not just for fun.

Flea market is another name for the second-hand goods market in Western countries such as Europe and the United States. It is composed of stalls and the market size varies.

The goods sold in this market are mostly second-hand goods, people's extra items, and unused but outdated clothes, etc., ranging from small decorations on clothes to complete old cars, VCRs, TVs, washing machines, everything is available. The price is low, only 10% to 30% of the price of new goods. Lin Yuan and his friends followed the navigation and came to the so-called flea market.

What can I say about this market!

A bit messy, or rather very messy.

Although there were management staff, they basically didn't care. For example, the woman standing at the entrance didn't care that there was a person lying there, browsing on his phone as if no one was around.

"Are you still going in?" Huo Qingtong asked.

There was a person lying there, and I was really afraid that if I got close I would get tangled up with him.

This kind of person is obviously a scammer. Don't think that only Chinese people do scams. When foreigners become rogues, they are more difficult to deal with than Chinese people.

"Is there no other entrance?" Li Qiu Shui asked Qiao Yufan.

What kind of place are you looking for? The security is so bad.

"I don't know! It's my first time here." Qiao Yufan was also a little embarrassed. He found this place on the Internet.

A "senior" who had been here said this was a good place and highly recommended it online.

"I'll go first, you guys wait a moment." Paul said.

He is a market manager and has experience in dealing with hooligans, so naturally he stood up.

Paul went over first and quickly became friends with the flea market manager and became friends with him. Then someone came and took away the guy lying at the entrance.

"Let's have coffee together when we have time." Paul said with a smile to his "colleague".

After saying that, he waved to Lin Yuan and the others, indicating that they could go over.

It must be said that with Paul and Henry around, sometimes a lot of trouble can really be avoided. This is also an important reason why Lin Yuan is willing to take them to drink soup.

After entering, Lin Yuan and his friends saw a row of furs.

The audience in the live broadcast room was no longer calm.

Isn't it said that Europe and the United States pay great attention to the protection of wild animals? Is it appropriate to buy fur in broad daylight?

"This is mink skin." Henry said to Lin Yuan.

Mink fur is a fine fur with high-quality leather, soft and strong, thick plush and glossy color. It is mainly produced in America and Europe.

The fur clothing made from it is elegant and luxurious, and is an ideal fur product. It is known as the "king of furs" and has therefore become a symbol of wealth for people.

In foreign countries, mink fur is known as "soft gold". Mink fur has three characteristics: "the fur becomes warmer when the wind blows, the snow melts away when it falls, and the fur does not get wet when it rains."

Paul shook his head: "It's fake. The real thing isn't that cheap."

Mink fur is one of the most popular mink furs, and its price varies greatly. The lowest price starts at $2500, and the top quality can reach more than $1.

Of course, what we are talking about here is clothes made of mink fur, not just a piece of mink fur.

But at this stall in front of me, you can get one for just over ten or twenty dollars. Is that possible?

"I went hunting with my friends before. A mink cost $50, and a good quality one cost more," Paul added.

In modern times, North American minks, like silver foxes and beavers, were hunted on a large scale as “fur animals”, and by the end of the 19th century, wild minks were almost endangered.

"Maybe it's farmed!" Lin Yuan guessed.

Now, tens of millions of minks are killed every year. If they were not farmed, how many minks would be killed in the wild?
