This Lord is Very Scientific

Chapter 163 Lottery and Lottery Tickets



Heshan grew more and more alarmed as he listened.

Just one silver coin allows you to play once, and the eighth prize is ten gold coins! The higher you go, the more it escalates!

Not to mention the top three prizes.

Third prize: Two thousand Azanen Coins.

At first glance, this reward might not seem that special, but the value of one Azanen Coin is equivalent to a slave working twelve hours a day continuously.

Moreover, there are many Azanen specialties that can only be purchased with Azanen Coins, such as high-end fiber paper and various future products, which means they are limited editions.

Additionally, two thousand Azanen Coins also grant the opportunity to be personally enlightened by Ove!

This is practically a blessing for all non-nobles!

Next up is the second prize.

Second prize: An hour of guidance from the legendary one himself.

A legendary figure, providing one hour of guidance.

This kind of reward is undeniably precious.

If the third prize is aimed at those with some money but no way to become a professional,

then the second prize targets many professionals above level ten or nobles.

Breaking through is their wish.

Although Ove himself isn't very proficient in other areas of research, his disciples are!

At that time, Lin Ke can secretly provide guidance, and if it doesn't work, he can transform into a crow to intimidate, then teach through the door.

As for the first prize...

First prize: The occupational traits of a certain profession, which includes: [Knight], [Scholar], [Singer], [Charming Beauty], [Housekeeper], [Minstrel], [Doctor]...

Occupational traits!

These have always been the top secrets among major forces!

It's important to know that some special professional configurations are held tightly by major forces and can only be granted when one joins them.

In this situation, Lin Ke introducing this first prize is like throwing a stunningly beautiful young girl, wearing black silk stockings, onto an island full of lecherous people!

It's easy to imagine that while major forces might not be interested in Lin Ke's professions, some smaller forces will be absolutely tempted!

"Young Master Like, do we really have to offer so many prizes?" Heshan expressed his concern.

"Haha, look, are you tempted as well?" Lin Ke chuckled, then pointed to the few words written on his note: "See, I said, this is one of the occupational traits."

Seeing Heshan's confusion, Lin Ke smiled and shook his head: "First of all, the first prize is limited to thirty per month, and the traits appearing daily are random, and all belong to different professions. Only when someone gathers all the traits will we reveal to them the true configuration; it cannot be revealed before that."

Upon hearing this, Heshan was finally enlightened.

To collect all the occupational traits, one has to frantically participate in the lottery non-stop, only then is there a possibility of winning.

"This is just…" Heshan had to admit, he was genuinely tempted just now, and he still is.

After all, for anyone who loves gambling and lotteries, they all feel they will be the lucky one.

Even someone as business-savvy as Heshan couldn't resist, let alone others.

Of course, what Lin Ke is targeting with these schemes are the middle-class, such as carpenters and blacksmiths.

They can support their families, have some savings and spare money, and can do many things.

Even for some low-level professionals, gold coins are a great asset, making prizes from the tenth to the third very valuable.

"Lottery, lottery… Young Master Like, you truly are remarkable," Lady Heishan sincerely felt that Lin Ke was exceptionally suited to being a [merchant].

Lotteries, fragments, and "拼夕夕"… these were all my teachers! Lin Ke reminisced about last generation's harsher tactics and even considered introducing a lottery.

Hmm? Yeah?!

Do it! Why not?

And so, after teaching about the lottery, Lin Ke began to explain about another lottery: "Another game of chance I'm introducing to you is called 'lottery'."

Upon hearing Lin Ke about to introduce something new, Heshan immediately held his breath and listened intently.

"Simply put, we provide ten numbers, ticket buyers can choose ten numbers to arrange themselves, and two days later, we announce the day's selected numbers. If they match completely, there will be a reward of ten thousand gold coins; even matching four numbers gets a reward…"

Lin Ke started explaining one of the lottery systems from his previous life.

There are many ways to play lotteries, whether it's a sports lottery or a welfare lottery, they are all very profitable.

Sports lotteries wouldn't work well in Azanen, given the extraordinary powers; football could easily turn into a brawl, though Lin Ke could consider the gladiator arena.

On the other hand, the welfare lottery is quite fitting, with daily numbers decided by Ove, preventing any strange magic from probing the real results.

However, the funds involved in lotteries are a particularly large sum.

And essentially, lotteries are also gambling, using small bets for large returns.

If Lin Ke's lottery targets are the middle-class and above, then the lottery might involve the lower-class masses.

After all, who wouldn't want to make a gamble with something that costs a few copper coins?

While discussing with Heshan, Lin Ke even felt he could set up a casino.

However, the amounts involved would be even larger, and Lin Ke guessed even Ove might not be able to handle it.

If only Rica were still here… Lin Ke hadn't seen Rica for a long time. Initially, he was pestered by her every day and found it slightly annoying, but now he kind of misses it.

And with Rica, there is a backer!

Now, Rica has been taken away by that Dark Maiden, and Rica's Curry Housekeeper is probably working under the Eldest Prince; pulling the tiger's hide is a bit tough.

Otherwise, with Rica's support, Lin Ke could open ticket offices throughout the Gula Kingdom, and the money-catching ability would be incredible.

"Lottery… lottery…" After finishing the explanation of the lottery, Heshan muttered to himself and closed his eyes, seemingly receiving feedback again.

Lin Ke also confirmed that Heshan truly understood and comprehended it, but unfortunately, he lacked the relevant traits, making it impossible for him to receive any feedback.

After Heshan finished absorbing the feedback, Lin Ke began to instruct her on the next topic.

Trust those you use, do not doubt them.

Lin Ke believed that his "leader" bloodline wasn't that weak and trusted his judgment; Heshan was likely already loyal to him.

Even if not, Lin Ke had his ways, so now he began to discuss his conjectures about the profession of [Accountant] with Heshan.

"The current bookkeeping procedures are actually very disadvantageous for auditing and analysis."

Lin Ke casually wrote the line "sold a batch of goods today" on the paper.

"Mr. Lin Ke, is there something wrong with that?" Heshan inquired, unsure of what Lin Ke was getting at.

Lin Ke shook his head: "Auditing isn't that simple. I believe many things can be done from the accounting side, such as costing, financial management, auditing, risk management, strategic management, and so on…"

Instead of giving detailed explanations, Lin Ke tried to keep it simple, going over it for about three hours before asking:

"I have a new occupational concept in mind, would you like to try and pursue it?"

The slightly dizzy Lady Heishan didn't think twice about answering immediately: "I would!"

A new occupation, that's also a new opportunity!
