Better to believe it exists than to believe it doesn't!
Looking for a bottle cap near the trash can won't cause me any loss.
At most, it'll waste a few minutes of my time.
But if it's real, that's an iPhone15!
It's worth at least several thousand yuan!
Jiang Tao immediately pushed open the car door and got out, strolling towards the trash cans at the west gate.
"Huh? Someone's ahead of me!"
From a distance, Jiang Tao saw a grandpa wearing a green military coat standing next to a row of trash cans, picking through them.
Seeing this, Jiang Tao's mood immediately became tense.
He couldn't let this grandpa intercept his "opportunity"!
Quickening his pace, Jiang Tao saw a pile of cardboard, plastic sheets, and beverage bottles on the ground next to the grandpa.
The grandpa noticed Jiang Tao's arrival, stopped what he was doing, and looked at him warily.
"Haha, grandpa, don't look at me like that. I'm not here to compete with you. I'm just here to have a smoke."
Jiang Tao explained with a laugh, reaching into his pocket and offering the grandpa a cigarette.
A cigarette was enough to make the grandpa lower his guard, and the look in his eyes softened a lot.
"Grandpa, you keep picking. I accidentally threw away my water bottle when I was throwing out the trash. I'm just looking for it."
"It's best if you can find it, but if you can't, just forget about it."
Jiang Tao smoked his cigarette while walking towards the third green trash can from the left.
Taking a deep breath and preparing himself mentally, he finally started rummaging!
Fortunately, the trash cans here were relatively clean, with no kitchen waste or bad smells.
The trash cans mostly contained dirt, waste cardboard, waste wood, and various bottles and cans.
"Binghongcha (ice black tea) bottle cap..."
Jiang Tao rummaged through the trash can for seven or eight minutes.
He threw any recyclable waste he found next to the grandpa.
This increased the grandpa's goodwill towards him.
Throughout the search, Jiang Tao found a total of 3 binghongcha (ice black tea) bottles.
Among them, 2 were ordinary small bottles and 1 was a 1-liter large bottle.
He unscrewed the caps of all 3 bottles and put them in his pocket, while throwing the bottles to the grandpa next to him.
It took him about ten minutes to turn the third trash can upside down, and he only stopped after confirming that there were no bottles left.
And, coincidentally, he actually found a stainless steel thermos that someone else had thrown away!
"Found it! I'm leaving, grandpa! You keep busy! I wish you good fortune!"
Jiang Tao took the thermos from the trash can, waved goodbye to the grandpa who was picking through the trash, and strode towards where he had parked his car.
"Hey, what's wrong with your car window, Jiang Tao?"
When Jiang Tao returned to his car, a man about 1.7 meters tall, with a chubby figure and looking to be in his forties, was standing in front of his car, inspecting the damage.
The man's name was Wang Lianming, and he was a fellow villager from the same village as Jiang Tao. He was also the one who brought him into the industry.
"I'm having such bad luck. A stone kicked up by a car smashed it. I chased after the car just now, but I couldn't catch up."
Jiang Tao casually made up a reason to perfunctorily reply. Naturally, he couldn't tell outsiders about the Daily Intelligence System.
"You're unlucky enough this year! What's the license plate number? Did you see the license plate of that car?"
"It was running too fast, I couldn't see it clearly."
"That's bad. The few cameras here at the hongxing second-hand furniture wholesale market are just for show, they're useless!"
"Damn it, I can run into all sorts of bad luck! Another day wasted!"
"Take it easy, brother. What's that saying? Misfortune may be an actual blessing. I feel like your luck is about to turn around!"
"Haha, thanks for your kind words, wang ge! I hope this bad luck of mine can pass soon!"
Jiang Tao thought to himself, wang ge was right, misfortune may be an actual blessing!
Who would have thought that a [Daily Intelligence System] would fall from the sky and just happen to smash into his car!
A piece of car glass in exchange for a system is definitely worth it!
"Oh my, it's snowing! Let's go, let's go. It's getting late, and the market should be closing soon."
"See you tomorrow, Jiang Tao! I'm leaving first!"Wang Lianming finished speaking and ran in small steps towards his truck, started the car, and left.
Jiang Tao looked up at the sky. Beijing, which had been gloomy all day, finally ushered in its first snow of the year.
"A timely snow promises a good harvest! An auspicious sign! I hope that from today onwards, I can also have some financial luck!"
Smiling and sighing, Jiang Tao took out his phone from his pocket and glanced at the time.
It was already 5:30 PM, and it was getting dark.
Usually, at this time, there really wouldn't be any business.
"Go home first! It's going to be a traffic jam soon!"
Jiang Tao resisted the urge to immediately scan the code and redeem the prize, strode towards his beloved car, started the car, and left.
Although the car window was broken and the vision was somewhat affected, he could still see the road and see the cars clearly.
Jiang Tao had driven this road from hongxing second-hand furniture wholesale market to xiao shahe village thousands of times in the past five or six years, and he was already very familiar with it.
It took him 20 minutes to drive the car to an open space at the entrance of xiao shahe village, and snow had already begun to accumulate on the ground.
The snowflakes falling from the sky were getting bigger and bigger, and the world turned into a vast expanse of white.
Pushing open the door and getting out of the car, Jiang Tao walked quickly towards the village against the wind and snow.
His shoes stepped on the snow, making a light, crisp sound, just like Jiang Tao's current mood."Off work, xiao jiang ~"
"Xiao jiang is off work ~"
"Sister Wang hasn't closed her stall yet, so dedicated!"
"It's snowing, sister Li, still grinding away here!"
Jiang Tao had rented a house here in xiao shahe for more than 6 years, and he knew many of the small vendors along the street, and he would greet them when he met them.
When passing by the village's steamed bun shop, he bought a baked flatbread.
He bought 15 yuan worth of pork head meat and some cold dishes from the delicatessen.
He also bought two bags of instant noodles, two packs of Hong Li Qun cigarettes, a bottle of Bai Niu Er liquor, and 8 yuan worth of spiced peanuts at pang dongdong supermarket.
After a big purchase, Jiang Tao walked through the intricate, maze-like alleys of the chengnan village for 5 minutes, carrying large and small bags in his hands.
Finally, he came to an old-looking 2-story tube building.
Jiang Tao took out his access card from his pocket and swiped it to enter the small building.
He lived in room 205 on the shady side of the 2nd floor.
The rooms on the shady side were dark and damp, with no sunlight all year round.
The only advantage was that the rent was 300 yuan cheaper per month than the sunny side.Jiang Tao was rarely at home during the day, and he was basically working at the wholesale market.
The rental house was just a place for him to sleep, so he didn't care about the shady or sunny side.
The 300 yuan saved on monthly rent was enough for him to buy two packs of cigarettes and smoke for half a month.
He took out the key, opened the door and entered the room, and turned on the lights.
Jiang Tao's room was only about 10 square meters in size.
The room contained a single bed for sleeping and a second-hand small wardrobe that he had bought back from the second-hand market.
Then there was a computer desk that a neighbor who was leaving beijing to return to his hometown had given him, which became his dining table.
The furnishings in the room were simple to the point of being crude.
He entered the room, closed the door, and threw the pile of plastic bags he was carrying onto the dining table.
Jiang Tao nervously took out the 3 binghongcha (ice black tea) bottle caps he had found from the trash can from his pocket.
"If I can win an Apple iphone15, I can sell it and get some money."
"God bless me, I hope it's real!"
Jiang Tao first took the soap box to the public sink on the 2nd floor to wash his hands, and also cleaned the 3 bottle caps.
After washing his hands and the bottle caps, Jiang Tao returned to the room and locked the door.
He took out his phone and scanned the codes!Ding!
The first bottle cap had nothing.
Ding!
The second was a voucher for activating QQ Green Diamond.
Only the last one was left, and the expression on Jiang Tao's face became serious.
"I bought meat and wine, and I'm ready to celebrate. Don't let me be happy for nothing..."
His eyes nervously looked at the last bottle cap.
Jiang Tao took a deep breath and then aimed the phone camera at the QR code inside the bottle cap to start scanning.
Ding!
[Congratulations, you have won an iPhone15 mobile phone!]
"I won! I won! I f***ing did it!!!"
Seeing the winning interface on the phone, Jiang Tao jumped up from the chair and excitedly punched the air several times in a row!
Since he was a child, Jiang Tao had only won 10 yuan when buying lottery tickets.
Apart from that, there was no winning record higher than 10 yuan.
Today, he scanned an iphone15 phone from the bottle cap!
It was like a dream!
Jiang Tao rubbed his face hard to make sure he wasn't dreaming, and then looked at the phone screen again.
The phone screen still showed the winning phone interface.
All of this was real!
After the excitement, Jiang Tao followed the prompts on the winning page and filled in his name, phone number, and shipping address.
