I Get A Random New Occupation Every Week-Chapter 2452 - 2453: Coming to the Door
Chapter 2452: Chapter 2453: Coming to the Door
"Is that for real?"
Though it was a question, Yan Ci’s eyes were filled with admiration.
"Everything has its limits, and for me, blowing it up is still no problem."
"Amazing, huh?"
Yan Ci was spirited, her eyes brimming with pride.
"What’s amazing?"
"Stop it."
Both of them shared a knowing smile, then turned their attention to the owner and a tourist.
"Brother, are you ready?" The owner asked with a smile, clearly getting a bit impatient.
"Ready."
The tourist limbered up his wrists, "Aiming to grab a prize to take home."
With those words, the tourist punched the target, and the score swiftly displayed.
[Your score is 59, needs more practice, thanks for visiting.]
"Not bad, buddy, you were just a little short of getting the reward."
"Come, give it another try!"
The tourist was eager to give it another go, missing the reward by just one point — there’s no reason not to try!
Ideals are plentiful, reality is harsh.
His third attempt only scored 56 points, even worse than the first.
"Alright, alright, no more playing."
The tourist gave up, and the owner sighed, tearfully earning thirty yuan.
"Let me give it a try."
At this moment, a muscular man stepped forward, confident, and slapped down 10 yuan!
Just when everyone thought that with his physique, he could easily score over 60, he only managed to hit 48 points.
Even worse than the skinny man before.
"Boss, is there something wrong with this machine? That’s all I scored?" the muscular man complained, feeling embarrassed.
"Buddy, you got the striking point wrong, can’t blame others," the owner said:
"Wait, I’ll show you how it’s done."
The owner didn’t hesitate and threw a punch, scoring a high of 73 points instantly!
"There’s nothing wrong with the machine, the issue is with you. You don’t know how to exert force, it should be like me."
"Let me try."
Seeing such a stark difference in scores, Yan Ci said surprisingly:
"He’s pretty good, seemed like he didn’t exert much force, yet he scored 73."
Lin Yi nodded, "He must be trained, the speed of the punch and the point of exertion are quite professional, ordinary people definitely can’t compare."
At this point, the muscular man was ready again, throwing another punch.
This time was better, scoring 59.
"Really, your teaching method is quite good, let me play one more time." freeωebnovēl.c૦m
The muscular man swiped another 10 yuan, limbered up, and smashed again!
[Your score is 62, needs more practice, thanks for visiting.]
"Look, this time it passed 60, right?"
With that, the owner picked up a phone stand, "This is the reward for scoring over 60, there are also plush toys, you can choose one."
"I’ll take this one. I could actually use it."
Seeing the prize provided by the owner, Lin Yi pondered that the cost must be less than 10 yuan.
The owner tearfully earned another 20+ yuan.
"Why don’t you give it a try? I want that Painting Boat." Yan Ci suggested.
"Better not, it’s hard enough for people to make a small business run."
Although the quality of the other prizes wasn’t great, the top prize, the Painting Boat, was still very good.
The cost must be at least above 200.
If he went to play, the owner would end up working for free today.
"That’s true," Yan Ci acknowledged:
"I’ll ask the owner where we can buy a similar one, get one to take home... Boss?"
Upon hearing Yan Ci’s voice, the owner turned around.
"Beautiful lady, what can I do for you?"
"I wanted to ask where you bought that top prize, the Painting Boat. I’d like to buy one too."
"Buy one?"
"Yeah, I think it looks quite nice."
"Then you might not be able to buy it, mine is handmade, not some junk they sell out there." the owner said:
"If you really want it, you can give it a try. Score above 90, and the Painting Boat is yours."
"My husband said, you don’t make money easily, so we won’t play."
The owner was visibly startled and felt that this handsome young man was a bit audacious, then he said with a laugh:
"No problem at all, I am not afraid of losing money, I’m just worried you won’t be able to take the prize. For 10 yuan, you can take home a handmade Painting Boat, what a bargain."
"That doesn’t seem right, you don’t make much from your stall, and we can’t ruin your business."
"This is what I do for a living. If I were afraid of losing money, I wouldn’t be here."
The owner persuasively said: "How about giving it a try? Just 10 yuan, that’s not even enough to buy a milk tea."
Yan Ci looked at Lin Yi, "The owner is making an offer, do you want to try it?"
"Since he’s put it that way, I might as well give it a try."
Lin Yi held up his phone and transferred 10 yuan.
Passersby around them were watching, ready to see Lin Yi’s embarrassment.
With his skills, scoring above 90 would probably be harder than reaching heaven.
After all, he’s in business to make money, not to engage in losing deals.
"Buddy, just get ready and start whenever you’re ready."
As he spoke, the owner even demonstrated the correct way to exert force, looking utterly sincere.
As if to say, making money doesn’t matter, it’s all about making friends.
Lin Yi didn’t hesitate, and casually threw a punch.
[Your score is 100 points, you need more practice, thank you for visiting.]
Upon hearing the voice prompt, Lin Yi didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.
He guessed the machine’s quality wasn’t that great, no matter how many points you score, it always advises more practice.
But the onlookers were all stunned!
"Holy cow, a perfect score?!"
The owner stood frozen in place, eyes wide and mouth agape, somewhat in disbelief.
"Honey, you’re awesome!"
Yan Ci jumped excitedly, her expression proud, with a radiant smile.
Lin Yi shot her a smiling look, then turned to the owner and said:
"I scored a perfect score, please hand over the Painting Boat."
"This, this..."
"Hang on a sec, there might be a problem with the machine."
"Huh? The machine has a problem?"
The owner nodded assertively and said:
"Scoring above 90 might be possible, but nobody can score 100."
"That’s where you’re wrong. Why do you say the machine has a problem just because I scored high?"
"Wait a moment, I’m a man who honors my bets, but I need to be convinced." the owner said:
"I’m going to adjust the machine, if you can score 100 again, I’ll give you the Painting Boat."
"Alright then."
Lin Yi was unconcerned, for him, it didn’t matter how many times he tried, the outcome wouldn’t change.
The owner went over to the machine to check it and tried to find the cause.
At that moment, his wife came over, nervously asking:
"What’s going on? Did he really score 100 points?"
The procurement cost of a Painting Boat alone is 270 yuan; if they really gave it to him, they would complete today’s business at a loss.
"I also don’t know what’s wrong." the owner muttered:
"I’m going to increase the weight setting, he won’t be able to score over 70 even if it kills him."
"Right, right, increase the weight setting, can’t be doing business at a loss."
