Chapter 722 — Hit Another One? The Owner Resetting the Grand Prizes Heard Wei Zhao and Found It Funny: Aren't You Afraid Such Big Talk Will Make You Bite Your Tongue? One for Each Person? Do You Think You Are a Sharpshooter? You Just Got Lucky Before, This Time I Have Reinforced the Foam Glue, Let's See How You Knock Anything Down!

The Blossom Guardian

He only thought that to himself and of course could not say it aloud. When he turned back around, his face was all smiles again: "Haha, then let me wish in advance that your dream comes true!"

The onlookers crowding around heard Wei Zhao talk like that and grew curious, pressing closer to watch and see whether he was just bragging or really had some skill.

Wei Zhao casually picked up another sandbag and tossed it out as if it were nothing, without even aiming, let alone using his full strength.

The crowd felt an instant wave of disappointment, while the owner rejoiced inwardly. They all assumed that since Wei Zhao had already won one jackpot, this next sandbag was just thrown at random, practically giving up. But then the unexpected happened!

"Bang!"

It struck squarely the Pleasant Goat plush the owner had just set back up. The Pleasant Goat did not even wobble before Wei Zhao's sandbag knocked it straight to the ground.

"Ah?" The owner let out a cry of despair, but it was instantly drowned out by the cheers of the surrounding crowd.

"Amazing, he hit it again, that's incredible!"

"Owner, I want to play too, give me ten yuan's worth!"

"Give me twenty yuan's worth. I don't believe it. I, Li Tianzhu, am called the invincible lucky star. How could I be worse than him?"

Heart aching, the owner handed the Pleasant Goat plush to Wei Zhao, but hearing everyone eager to try, he breathed a sigh of relief. Luckily the advertising effect was obvious, and this had brought in quite a few customers all at once!

Wei Zhao took the Pleasant Goat plush and handed it to Gu Mengyao.

"Give it to Tang Yun?" The young lady felt a little embarrassed to accept it. With Tang Yun still there, Gu Mengyao felt she should not take a plush first. Shen Yushu had already claimed one, and if she took another it would not look quite right.

"Oh, there is one sandbag left. I'll win her another one." Wei Zhao said, weighing the last sandbag in his hand.

The owner, who was busy arranging the plush toys, heard Wei Zhao's words and nearly collapsed on the spot! Win yet another one? Would that not bankrupt him? How was he supposed to stay in business?

Yet he had no way to stop Wei Zhao from throwing, for that would make business even more impossible. When others missed you took their money happily enough, but once someone hits you do not want to let him keep playing? What kind of logic was that?

So the owner could only grit his teeth and stand there praying that Wei Zhao would miss! If he lost three plush toys in a single day, all his work these past few days would have been for nothing!

But reality would not unfold the way he prayed. If his prayers really worked, he would have become a millionaire long ago and would not need to run a stall here.

"Bang!"

The last sandbag, without any suspense, struck the biggest plush of all. It was an Ali plush.

The owner nearly had a heart attack. His vision went black and he felt about to faint, but he knew well enough that if he really passed out he would become a laughingstock. He could only endure the heartache as he handed the Ali plush to Wei Zhao, offering congratulations: "Young man, you really are something. Three in a row!"

"Heh, so-so." Wei Zhao said lightly, taking the Ali plush and handing it to Tang Yun: "This one is for you."

Compared to Pleasant Goat and Grey Wolf, Tang Yun liked Ali more. Seeing Wei Zhao give Ali to her, she could not help feeling delighted: "Thank you."

"Wow wow wow, Arrow Brother, you are so amazing! Shall we buy ten more yuan's worth?" Shen Yushu asked with a mischievous grin, seeing the forced smile on the owner's face.

"All right, Xiaoshu, let's go look at something else and leave the chance to others." Gu Mengyao knew when to quit. These small-time vendors did not have it easy. Those few plush toys were worth over a thousand yuan, and the owner was probably aching with regret!

But Gu Mengyao would not offer him any compensation. Business was like that, with losses and gains. Even her daddy did not make money on every deal.

Wei Zhao had no intention of continuing either, and left the sandbag stall together with Gu Mengyao, Shen Yushu, and Tang Yun.

The owner finally breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that if you lingered by the river long enough, your shoes were bound to get wet. Even his foam glue was not foolproof! But a loss was a loss, and had it not drawn in so many people? The owner did not believe anyone else here had strength like Wei Zhao's. He would win it all back soon enough.

Sure enough, thanks to Wei Zhao's demonstration, the owner turned misfortune into blessing. More and more people came to toss sandbags, and in the blink of an eye the owner had taken in several hundred yuan, while what he gave out amounted at most to trinkets worth a few dozen yuan. The owner was grinning from ear to ear again!

However, he celebrated a little too early. Not long after Wei Zhao left, another young man hit the jackpot, the biggest plush! Only it did not fall.

The young man was clearly displeased: "I hit it too. Why didn't it fall?"

"Your arm just isn't strong enough. That young fellow earlier had real power!" The owner thought to himself, could he let every one of you knock it down? Then how would he stay in business?

"My strength is lacking? I'm a fitness coach at a gym. I don't believe for a second that my strength is less than that pretty boy's just now?" The young man glared in disbelief: "Tell me, did you rig something?"

"What could I possibly rig? That guy just now knocked down three jackpots in a row. Everyone saw it!" The owner said guiltily.

"Yeah, why did he hit three? I get it now. He must be a shill you hired, deliberately letting us see him win so we'd all spend money too, right?" The young man demanded.

"Impossible. I don't even know them!" This time the owner spoke with confidence. He truly did not know Wei Zhao and the others.

"In that case, let me check that plush and see if there's anything wrong with it!" The young man still did not believe him, shoved the owner aside, and walked toward the shelf where the goods were displayed.

"You can't just come in here!" The owner hurried to stop him, but how could he be a match for this young fitness coach? In a few moves he was pushed aside. The young man grabbed for the biggest plush, tugged once, and it did not budge.

He froze for a moment, then yanked hard again, only to see the shelf beneath the plush covered with foam glue! After seeing it, the young man sneered: "So this is how you cheat people? It's all foam glue underneath. No matter how strong someone is, from that distance no one could knock this loose! Isn't this just a scam?"

The owner was dumbfounded on the spot. Seeing he had been exposed with no way to cover it up, he hurried to defend himself: "Th... I had foam glue on it just now too, and that guy knocked it down..."
