At exactly nine o'clock, the rolling door of the lottery ticket sales point opened right on schedule, and the crowd surged in like a tide. As soon as the door opened, Wu Hua rushed in first and immediately claimed the spot at the very first window on the right. Before long, the entire sales outlet was packed with people, and those unable to get inside had to wait in line outside.
The lottery tickets Wu Hua bought were still the same 12 sets of numbers from last week, but this time he added one entry to each set, buying a total of 24 tickets. Just in case someone happened to win the jackpot at the same time as he did, he would be able to claim an extra share of the prize money.
After purchasing his lottery tickets, Wu Hua squeezed his way out of the sales outlet with some effort and found that the queue outside was still very long, with an estimated thousand people inside and out. Wu Hua thought to himself: Americans really are crazy. Heh heh, but they are destined to pave the way for me!
