Chen Yang looked at the woman pouting and arguing with the ticket inspector. He smiled and shook his head, turned around and walked towards the train.

From the first glance, this woman has just entered society and is not aware of the dangers of society. She does things with passion. After a few years, she will probably become indifferent like most people.

Ask yourself, are you a bad person? The answer is definitely no, at least I haven't been. Once upon a time, I dared to stand up and scold someone who was touching porcelain, but what I got was a few people beating me up, and the car owner walked away; I also helped those who were kneeling on the roadside, begging for ten yuan. The girl who was having a meal ended up sitting on the roadside watching people eating fried chicken burgers in a KFC.

It’s not that there are fewer good people, it’s that good people have become lazy! As the pace of life accelerates and house prices and commodity prices rise rapidly, who has the free time to help you testify and help you run this agency or that agency? In this time, everyone can earn as much as a can of baby milk powder.

Chen Yang took the ticket, found his berth, put his suitcase under the lower berth, then sat by the window and looked out the window.

Passengers were finding their seats one by one. Chen Yang was still looking out the window, thinking about how difficult it would be to live without smartphones and tablets.

"Oh, I finally found it, hoo!" A clear voice sounded, and then a lady figure sat directly on the berth opposite Chen Yang.

Chen Yang turned around and saw that it was the woman he had just met in the waiting hall. Are you done arguing with the ticket inspector?

"Why is it you?" The woman actually glanced at Chen Yang with some dissatisfaction, and then looked at Chen Yang warily.

Chen Yang grinned, didn't say anything more, and continued to look out the window. The woman rolled her eyes at Chen Yang and said, "It's so unlucky that I met such a master. It seems that I won't be able to sleep well at night."

What is this word? Chen Yang glanced sideways at the woman, did he look like a gangster? Make it seem like you are going to do something to her at night?

Chen Yang was too lazy to pay attention to her, so he simply took out the snacks he brought and ate while looking at the scenery outside.

The woman ignored Chen Yang and sat across from Chen Yang. She took out a book and started reading. Chen Yang glanced at it with the corner of his eye, "Social Journalism!"

There was no communication between the two. The woman read her book and muttered something in a low voice from time to time. Chen Yang threw snacks into his mouth and looked at the scenery outside the window.

"I won the lottery, I won the lottery, I won the big prize!" Suddenly a young man sitting in a sleeper shouted excitedly, "I won a total of 100,000 yuan!"

The man's excited shouts instantly attracted people around him, and many people gathered around the young man to express their envy.

"Wow, one hundred thousand yuan!" The woman sitting opposite Chen Yang also looked envious, "I wish I was so lucky."

Chen Yang glanced over and smiled slightly. This trick could deceive these people, but it couldn't deceive himself. This was a trick that appeared in movies in later generations, and it has become popular in recent years.

Jianlibao is definitely the earliest beverage for Chinese people. It was once the number one brand of domestic beverages. At that time, it could be found in almost all streets and alleys in China, and it had the reputation of the Oriental Magic Water.

In 1991, Li Jingwei, chairman of Jianlibao, whimsically planned a promotion idea of ​​"pull the ring and get a prize". Consumers who buy Jianlibao can get a bonus of 5 yuan as long as they pull the ring with a special pattern printed on it. Li Jingwei Jingwei claims to invest millions of yuan in bonuses every year - from 200 million yuan at the beginning, and later increased to 1994 million yuan in 800.

This event was an unexpected success in China. What is particularly surprising is that the "Jianlibao Ring" has become a prop for many rural swindlers. They sit on trains and long-distance buses and exclaim that they have pulled a can worth a huge amount. Jianlibao with prize money, and then resold it to innocent passengers who are greedy for petty gains.

Until around 2000, this fraud game was still being played out in extremely stupid but thrilling ways in urban and rural areas across the country.

A young man in a black shirt walked to the table in front of the winning boy's berth, picked up the Jianlibao placed on the table, looked at it carefully, and then smiled with envy on his face, "Oh, man, you are so lucky. It’s so good, I’ve been drinking Jianlibao for several years and I haven’t had any trouble once.”

A man next to him looked at the man who was almost thirty years old and smiled helplessly, "It's so irritating to compare people to each other. We don't have this life, there's nothing we can do about it!"

There were many people nearby who gave the young man a thumbs up and praised him for his good luck.

The young man who won the lottery grinned and scratched his head with a smile. He told everyone that he did not drink this kind of drink often. A relative at home bought it for him before getting in the car.

"How do you get this thing if you win the prize?" an aunt next to her asked, holding melon seeds in her hand and chewing them.

"Go to the designated place in the capital and bring the ring to exchange for cash." The man in a black shirt answered with a smile.

"Ah, I still have to go to the capital!" At this time, doubts appeared on the face of the young man who won the lottery. "Then I am ready to go home. I don't know when I will go to the capital next time."

Hearing these familiar words, Chen Yang knew that the fun was about to begin. It’s not bad. Taking the train is quite boring anyway, but it’s fun to see the excitement.

Sure enough, when the young man who won the prize said that he had no choice but to claim the prize, the young man in a black shirt next to him rolled his eyes, approached the young man who won the prize, and said with a smile, "Brother, this bonus has a time limit. If you don't claim it after the expiration date, it will be forfeited." ”

"Since you don't have time to go to the capital to redeem your prize, why not sell me the winning ring? I've been drinking Jianlibao for so many years, and it makes me feel happy, how about it?"

Hearing the suggestion from the man in the black shirt, the winning boy frowned and thought for a moment, then nodded, "That's okay, how much will you pay?"

The black-shirted man looked at the wallet he carried with him and took out five thousand yuan from it. "I only have five thousand yuan, how about I give it to you?"

"That won't work!" The young man who won the lottery obviously refused. "I only have one hundred thousand yuan. If you want to buy it for five thousand yuan, aren't you treating me as a fool? Absolutely not!"

"At least 90,000, I won't give you a penny less!" As he spoke, the young man who won the lottery nervously held the ring in his hand, as if he was afraid that others would snatch it.

The people around him also laughed and accused the man in the black shirt of trying to defraud the young man of his grand prize with such a small amount of money.

"I'm not trying to cheat," the man in the black shirt sighed helplessly, "Who goes out with tens of thousands of dollars in cash."

"Otherwise, young man, where do you get off at the station? I'll go down with you. You can take the five thousand yuan and use it as a deposit. Then I can go to the bank to withdraw money for you!"

The young man who won the lottery curled his lips and shook his head, "When we get off the car, there are no more witnesses to bear witness. What will happen if you change your mind? Anyway, if you want this ring, you must give me the money now!"

"If you don't have money, don't treat me like a fool!"

The young man who won the lottery said angrily to the man in the black shirt. After hearing what he said, the man in the black shirt became excited. He stood up with a slap on his thigh and shouted at him, "Who said I have no money!"

After finishing speaking, he stood up and took down his suitcase from above. Then he took out a large handful of colorful foreign currency and slapped it hard in front of the winning boy.

"Look, what is this!" The man in the black shirt picked up the foreign currency and waved it in front of the winning boy, "U.S. dollars, Daole, have you seen it? One piece can be exchanged for several RMB!"

"What kind of money is this?" The young man who won the lottery picked up a piece of paper and looked at it over and over. Standing next to the young man, a middle-aged man wearing a white shirt, suit pants and glasses patted his shoulder and said, "Young man, show me Look, I work in a bank."

The middle-aged man took the money in his hand, raised it above his head, turned it over and looked at it, finally nodded, and said with a look of shock, "I work in the foreign exchange department of a bank, and I often come into contact with foreign exchange. This is really a U.S. dollar, according to the current exchange rate , this one hundred dollars can exchange us for more than seven hundred!"

I heard that this piece of money could be exchanged for more than 700 in my hand. Everyone chipped in one after another. After all, this was the first time I saw foreign currency. What is it like?

"You don't know, when the exchange rate was good a few years ago, those people who were squandering foreign exchange were making crazy money!"

Hearing what the bank staff said, everyone became even more interested and kept talking around. The man in the black shirt placed a wad of U.S. dollars in front of the winning boy, "What do you think? I'll leave this wad of foreign currency with you. When you arrive, you and I can go to the bank to withdraw the money. Is this the head office?"

The winning boy lowered his head and thought for a moment, then shook his head like a rattle, "No, I don't know the money. If you want to buy it today, you must put the money in front of me, and it must be RMB!"

"Aren't you making things difficult for me?" The man in the black shirt was obviously a little anxious. "You can tell me who takes the train with tens of thousands of cash on him, right?"

"That's right, young man, you are a little embarrassed."

"Young man, I really want it. It's just the same. Besides, I still have these US dollars to give you as collateral. What are you afraid of!"

"That's right, you don't have time to redeem the prize anyway. Don't let Jianlibao take advantage of it in vain. This way, if you earn it, he will also earn it. What a good thing."

Faced with everyone's persuasion, the young man remained unmoved at all. Instead, a trace of sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth, "Okay, okay, don't try to persuade me. People here just don't have money. Look at the people in the south. Who doesn't?" A few hundred thousand, poor means poor!"

"Hey, what are you talking about? We all have iron rice bowls. Can those self-employed people in the south compare with that?" The young man in the black shirt became anxious at that time. He stood up and pointed at the young man who won the lottery and said.

"That's right, how can you talk like this!"

"No, how much have we contributed to the country? Without us, would it be possible to develop as fast as the south!"

Chen Yang smiled, tilted his chin, and looked at the performances of these people in front of him. They actually used regional black methods. How clever! But only fools fall for it.

"Really, this guy doesn't know how high the sky is when he wins a big prize. I'm going to teach him a lesson!" The woman opposite Chen Yang also stood up angrily, ready to go forward and argue.

"Everyone," the man in the black shirt waved to everyone at this time, "Fathers and fellow villagers, please stop arguing. Doesn't this person look down on us? I am also from Shencheng, and I will let him see it today."

"These are U.S. dollars in my hand. The big brother who works in the bank just said that one can be exchanged for more than 700. Today, in order to put this in perspective, I will give you 500 dollars in exchange. Is there any fellow countryman who is willing to help? If you’re busy, come over and help me, it’s all voluntary!”

Not long after the young man in the black shirt finished speaking, the middle-aged man who worked at the bank took out all the money he had, including change and change, and barely scraped together a thousand yuan, and exchanged two.

"Hey, what were you doing in the past? Just look here and be careful not to be fooled!" Chen Yang reminded kindly.

"Tch," the woman rolled her eyes at Chen Yang, "There are so many movies in the world. I'm not as cold-blooded as some people!"

I'm going! Chen Yang looked at the woman's back as she left. This girl is really fooled when she leaves home. Dangdang!
