Chapter 361 - Wu Zeqings Birthday! (2/2)
How much should he add? A million or five million? Or should he add all the ten million? Thinking how he was like a nouveau riche now, he was not lacking in that part. If he really struck the Lucky Bread or something even better, wouldn't he receive a windfall? If he only bought a few Additional Stakes, that would be too regretful. With enough courage and increasing capital, he also began to gamble at a larger scale. Hence, Zhang Ye directly tapped 99, throwing ten million Reputation points into it!
The spin continued!
The needle slowed down!
A bit...A bit...Just a bit more...
However, maybe it was due to not having played the lottery for quite some time, Zhang Ye's sense of the wheel and needle's speed had deteriorated. He watched the needle move forward, and just as it was about to stop in the Consumption Category region, it suddenly moved forward a bit, entering the next region.
Holy sh*t!
It was a Skills Category region!
Zhang Ye nearly cried out. His luck was too bad, wasn't it? He did not get whatever he wanted!
However, the Skills Category prize had previously given Zhang Ye some pretty good skills. Even the Computer or the Lock-Picking Skillbooks he received had been put to good use. As such, he was also not that depressed. Treasure Chests appeared, flooding the ground. There were a total of hundred golden Treasure Chests (Small). As there was not enough s.p.a.ce in the room, the Treasure Chests stacked over each other, making it quite a spectacular sight. Zhang Ye reached out and opened the lid of one of the Treasure Chests.
[ Calligraphy Skill Experience Book ] 100!
Seeing the Calligraphy Skillbooks-laden chests, Zhang Ye was at a loss whether to laugh or cry. He had obtained these Skillbooks in the past. Be it his brush or pen writing, they were already more beautiful than in the past. And it only had that bit of use, and did not seem of much practical significance.
Why did I get it again!?
If it was Taiji Fist, how great would that have been!? If he had bought it, the Taiji Fist Skillbooks would cost a million Reputation points per book, but if it was obtained from the lottery, every book cost only 100,000. It was ten times cheaper! Skillbooks such as Taiji Fist were extremely valuable to Zhang Ye. If not, he would not have spent the ten million Reputation points to buy the Taiji Fist after earning it from the hijacking. This was a defensive skill. There was never too much of such a skill!
Calligraphy!?
Why did it have to be Calligraphy!?
Zhang Ye felt it was not something very useful. However, he had already received it, and there was no way to return it. His Save had already been used up, so there was no way to regret it anymore. He could only flip through the Calligraphy Skill Experience Books, and ”consume experience”.
1 book.....
10 books...
100 books...
He had finished consuming them!
All the information in the Calligraphy Skill Experience Books entered Zhang Ye's brain!
Since he had a bad beginning, and made poor judgment, forget it. No more drawing today. We'll talk about it in a few days!
Zhang Ye turned thirsty and drank some of the tea made from the tea leaves Wu Zeqing gave him. He narrowed his eyes in enjoyment. It was indeed good tea. Although he was not an expert at tea, he could tell the difference between this tea and the cheap tea he had bought in the past. The difference was too great. Only then did he return to his room, preparing to sleep. Others might not be able to sleep after drinking tea, but Zhang Ye was different. After drinking some hot tea, it might even help him sleep even more soundly.
Ring, ring, ring.
A phone call suddenly came in.
It was from Wu Mo. Zhang Ye did not know what it was about.
Zhang Ye picked it up. ”h.e.l.lo, CEO Wu?”
”Have you slept yet, Teacher Zhang?” Wu Mo asked.
”Not yet.” Zhang Ye said.
Wu Mo said, ”It's this. Tomorrow is my aunt's birthday, so I decided to call you. My aunt asked me to invite you. It will be a party for industry insiders. There will be food and chatter amongst scholars. It's at noon. I'll send you the exact address later.”
Zhang Ye blinked. ”You aren't going?”
”Why would I go? All of you are people in literature or calligraphy. I don't share a common language with you. I'll only suffer by being there. Furthermore, I need to monitor the advertis.e.m.e.nts.” Wu Mo said.
Zhang Ye asked, ”Then I'll bring some gift?”
Wu Mo gave it some thought before saying, ”I don't think there's a need? My aunt isn't a particular person. Just showing up would do. If you really need to, writing some calligraphy would also do. My aunt really likes things like calligraphy. Oh, those people from the calligraphy world also seem to draw stuff on the spot. It won't be too late to think over it when you are there. Anyway, I don't know the details. I have never joined in such meals with scholars, so I'll leave it to you.”
He was completely ignorant.
Zhang Ye could only say, ”Alright, I'll definitely go.”
