Chapter 114: The Line of Fire
"Xiaohua, you are finally here. I am almost annoyed. Every day, people come to ask if you have popcorn at night..." Chen Fan heard that Ge Xiaohua was coming tonight, so he waited here after get off work. Seeing Ge Xiaohua parked the car and hurried over to help carry the guys.
"Haha, Brother Fan, isn't that exaggerating? I've been busy lately."
"Understand, understand, Xiaohua, you are a celebrity in Xunjiang County. Our family watched it at night on Guixi TV. I was surprised by your performance in "Extraordinary Blacksmith". "Ge Xiaohua used to say that he was a blacksmith, but he still didn't believe it because in his opinion, blacksmiths were all done by older people, and young people rarely do this kind of "coolie".
"I'm laughing." Ge Xiaohua was embarrassed to be praised so much. Unexpectedly, the impact of the "Extraordinary Blacksmith" program began to ferment slowly. It is understandable. After all, Xunjiang County is a county town in western Guizhou. As a civil servant, Chen Fan will definitely watch local TV stations at night. His parents are older generations, and the entertainment program at night is to watch TV.
All the things were moved down. In addition to the hand-crank popcorn machine and gas tank, the most eye-catching thing should be a large package in the trunk, which looked quite substantial. Chen Fan moved it down and saw words like "Flying Line" on it, and said curiously: "Xiaohua, what is this?"
"Oh, fire line attack, I spent 1,500 yuan to buy the same game equipment used on the Xiangxi TV program before."
"Oh, it turns out to be CrossFire. I understand, Xiaohua, you are really a genius."
"If you think it's fun, buy it and try it. I don't know if anyone plays it." Ge Xiaohua looked at the time. It was only around 6 pm. It was not yet the peak traffic of the square. Some people were playing, but they were about to go back to have a meal.
After opening the package, Ge Xiaohua began to assemble the parts of the Fire Line Attack game. It was nothing more than some parts made of stainless steel. When people walked through these routes with rings, they would be alarmed when they encountered obstacles. There was no numbness and the irritation was not comparable to those with liveness, but it was relatively safer.
After installing and debugging for a while, Chen Fan felt itchy and said, "Xiaohua, will I do it?"
"Yes." Ge Xiaohua hung a banner that costs 20 yuan once and 30 yuan twice, and there will be corresponding rewards for each passing ball obstacle. Ge Xiaohua's reward is naturally popcorn. The first ball is a small cup, the second medium cup, and the third large cup. You can get 10 cups of popcorn for free through all obstacles at one time.
In fact, the cost of popcorn is not high, but the price is high, so it can still attract a lot of people. Ge Xiaohua is still confident in this regard.
Chen Fan held the iron ring and moved forward slowly, his hands were still very stable. When he entered the first ball, he accidentally encountered a point. The sensitive machine immediately issued an alarm and prompted the player to return to the place and start over again.
"It's gone? Come again!" Chen Fan didn't believe in evil, and was stimulated. He did another move. When he arrived at the ball obstacle, he changed his one hand to both hands, his attention was highly concentrated, and he integrated into the game.
"It's past!" The first ball passed, and Chen Fan began to challenge the U-shaped curve. The iron ring on his hand was like a sports car steering wheel. He was very careful when turning, but despite this, he still scratched it.
"The driving skills are still not good." Chen Fan nagged, hung the iron ring to the starting point, and did not play anymore. After the debugging, Chen Fan, who had been using it twice, would not delay Ge Xiaohua's business again.
The Fire Line Attack game was placed in front of the square supermarket, like a rare thing, attracting some people's attention. However, because it was late, there were not many people watching. Ge Xiaohua had dinner early in the morning, so he installed the Fire Line Attack and started to slowly make popcorn, and was not in a hurry.
The first pot of popcorn was about to "explode", and the traffic volume increased. Ge Xiaohua, who saw the right time, pried open the lockout.
"Bang!" A loud noise attracted some people who had just come to the square for a walk. Ge Xiaohua's cloth bag was filled with popcorn, and the hot popcorn smelled. Chen Fan and his family couldn't help but come and eat it first.
"Brother Fan, don't be polite. Eat, try to eat as much as possible, and I will make it again later!" After all, I have to give some "benefits" to pay directly, Chen Fan feels embarrassed, but it is good for both parties to eat popcorn for free. Moreover, Ge Xiaohua doesn't come to set up stalls often. It's occasionally, but Chen Fan asked Ge Xiaohua for a long time to come. After all, with Ge Xiaohua's current value, there is no need to set up stalls. The money has become a little more famous. When the second phase comes out, it is estimated that Ge Xiaohua's fame will double again. Ge's blacksmith shop will at least become a landmark place in the local area.
How many people can eat? Ge Xiaohua put the remaining ones first on the cup. When he saw the onlookers coming, he said, "Play games, eat popcorn for free, purely handmade popcorn, fragrant and sweet. Old customers know the price of these popcorns. If they are fresh, they will still be the original price."
"I'll play twice!" A young man in his twenties took out his mobile phone, scanned the collection QR code posted by Ge Xiaohua, and paid 30 yuan very decisively.
"WeChat payment and payment were successfully received by 30 yuan!" Ge Xiaohua turned on the voice prompt and also took a small Bluetooth speaker so that he would not miss the payment prompt. Others don't have to show you the phone, saving everyone's time.
"Okay, good luck!" After Ge Xiaohua said that, the young man entered the preparation area of the fire line attack game, picked up the iron ring, took a deep breath, and started playing!
"The game is over, please start over from the starting point!" As soon as the young man went up, his hand shook and scratched the stainless steel road. He failed before the first time he started.
The young man was very embarrassed and didn't know what to do. Ge Xiaohua immediately said: "Don't worry, this time it doesn't count. If you start over, you will have two chances."
It may be the first time he played the line of fire, and nervousness was inevitable. The young man looked at Ge Xiaohua, nodded, and did it again solemnly. This time he learned his lesson, controlled it with both hands, stopped shaking, and slowly passed through obstacles and reached the first ball, which means that the prototype obstacle that could get a small cup of popcorn was rewarded.
"Be careful, be careful!" the young man muttered, and suddenly he had a clone and scratched the ball again.
The young man who returned to the starting point had a subtle change in his mentality. The second time he failed at the starting point. If there weren't a group of people watching him, he might have kicked the stainless steel track and vented his anger.
He whispered: "What a broken thing, I'm wasting my 30 yuan!"
Considering that he was the first person to play, Ge Xiaohua knew that he was unwilling to give up, he said, "Haha, it's just a game, there's no need to be the first one to play, so he rewarded you with a small cup of popcorn."
This cup of popcorn alone is worth 20 yuan, and he played it three times, which means he made a profit. He ate a popcorn, and the fragrance of popcorn filled the entire taste buds. After his teeth were broken, the crisp sound was like the sound of nature. The young man who was originally irritable calmed down, and he was eating popcorn next to him and being an onlooker to see who could successfully pass the level.
