Chapter 76 Monopoly
Chapter 76 Monopoly
After lunch, they took their usual one-hour nap, and everyone excitedly awaited game time.
"Yufei, do you know any new games? I'm not really into Werewolf lately," Xu Jun asked Yufei.
Werewolf is a classic game that will never become outdated or cause you to tire of it even after many years.
But among all forms of entertainment, this game is indeed the only one that can easily lead to fatigue. In the past, when they got tired of playing this game, they would play more physically demanding games like hide-and-seek, wolf eat sheep, jump rope, and hopscotch.
just now……
Firstly, several of them are already in junior high school, which makes them older kids, and they find these games childish and don't like playing them anymore.
Secondly, there's the weather. On rainy days, none of the outdoor activities can be done, which is when you'd definitely want the gaming queen, Yufei, to step in!
Yufei didn't hesitate to offer her help and took out the Monopoly card game she had prepared beforehand. Although she had made it in her spare time, it had still taken her a year to develop this strategy board game.
It replicates the most complete version of the game, a game where you buy land, build buildings, and earn rent based on luck and trading strategies. It's a game full of business acumen.
The game was originally created to convey anti-monopoly ideas, but it unexpectedly became a huge hit.
Especially in a place like Daxia where people value family highly, real estate was a key business sector that was fiercely contested around 2000. Let her friends experience the power and influence of the business world.
Yufei's initial gold wasn't in paper money, but rather to give them a sense of the process.
Yufei made gold coins out of steel, and the sound of metal colliding when she scattered them was quite pleasant.
The above lists different face values, but everyone starts with the same initial fund. Let's see who has the last laugh.
At that time, Yufei anticipated that many people would play together, so she made the strategy map exceptionally large; when she opened it, it took up more than half of a room.
There were various things on it, including land, penalties, banks, prisons, and all sorts of cards. After Yufei explained the rules of the game, they started playing.
This is a game that combines wisdom, luck, and strategy. In the previous round, when everyone was still figuring out how to play, Yufei took the lead all the way, buying land, building inns, and eventually bankrupting everyone else.
My cousin is truly blessed by heaven. Several times, he almost bankrupted Yufei. His luck is just too good; he always draws good spots when rolling the dice. If he weren't so bad at the game, someone as unlucky as Yufei wouldn't have been able to beat him.
Xu Jun hadn't said a word since going bankrupt and being eliminated, but after they finished, he smiled brightly.
"Great! I know how to play now, let's go!" Yufei had a bad feeling.
As expected, Xu Junyi, having grasped the rules of the game, was the first to eliminate Yufei, who was even more unlucky than in the previous round.
Then, after eliminating the other team members, Jiang Yifeng was the one who persevered to the end and competed with Xu Jun for first place.
Jiang Yifeng had improved significantly since the last match, making him a formidable opponent for Xu Jun. Xu Jun was gradually encroaching on Jiang Yifeng's territory.
But Jiang Yifeng, with a stroke of luck, turned the tide at a certain juncture, transforming himself from a pawn on the chessboard into the player. By relentlessly pressing forward, Jiang Yifeng unexpectedly defeated Xu Jun.
Jiang Yifeng felt he could brag about this for the rest of his life. Xu Junyi was a little surprised, but he had a good attitude; he was just one step behind.
"Again~ *^_^*" Xu Jun seemed to have found the fun in this game and was quite happy.
Then he started dominating the Monopoly game, and Yufei felt that this wouldn't do; they couldn't let this big boss continue to be so arrogant.
Yufei started making a deal with Jiang Yifeng; with her cunning and Jiang Yifeng's luck, she refused to believe it would work.
Yufei has even started studying Sun Tzu's Art of War. Her younger cousin is on her side. Her biggest weakness, her dark complexion, is now being compensated for by her cousin.
She reached a point where she could compete head-to-head with Xu Jun, gradually evolving from a lone wolf to a team player.
The highest spirit of the Bactrian people is their willingness to sacrifice themselves for their beliefs and their strong sense of unity.
Xu Junyi's team, Xu Junyi is that faith, and Yufei's team, well, in the end, Yufei always sacrifices herself, pushing Jiang Yifeng to the position of playing chess against Xu Junyi.
In the final stages, a bit of luck was crucial. Yufei and her friends used various tactics to successfully accumulate their funds.
In the end, Yufei committed suicide, leaving all the wealth she had accumulated to Jiang Yifeng.
It was Yufei's bold actions that brought their fight to a stalemate with Xu Junyi.
It also added a lot of fun to the game. They stayed at Yufei's house for almost a week and played Monopoly for a week. The rain that had been falling for more than a week finally stopped, and when the sun came out...
The entire town of Longyuan cheered joyfully, running around with gongs and drums, letting everyone feel the warmth and enthusiasm of the people of Longyuan.
After observing the situation for a while, the officials of Longyuan Town noticed that the water level had begun to recede, and reports from other areas indicated that the floodwaters seemed to have indeed receded.
The officials of Longyuan Town breathed a sigh of relief, and it was also time to move forward with Yufei's other plan.
In recognition of this event, the officials of Longyuan Town announced that, in recognition of everyone's united efforts, July 25th would be designated as Longyuan Qiming Festival, signifying that Longyuan Town is about to embark on a journey towards the light.
The fact that Longyuan Town, surrounded by water on three sides, escaped the flood disaster shows that Longyuan is truly a blessed place. Shouldn't we celebrate?
So, at some point, a legend began to circulate in Longyuan Town, saying that Longyuan Town was a place blessed by the gods, and that everyone should celebrate properly after the flood to give thanks for the gods' blessings.
In August, Longyuan seemed to know that everyone was celebrating for it; the normally sweltering summer even brought a touch of coolness.
However, this slight chill seemed to be infected by the warmth of the people of Longyuan Town.
The whole town was transformed, decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations everywhere, and the children, dressed in new clothes, happily roamed through the crowds.
As requested by Yufei, the town leaders also invited respected elders from the town to review many of the ritual procedures.
Yufei also had Junlin Group step in and build an ancestral hall in Longyuan Town in just one week, not to promote superstition.
The goal is simply to create a unique cultural identity for Longyuan Town, to establish a summer festival specifically for the town, and, if possible, to gradually expand its influence.
Director Yang also expressed great interest in their event, as revealed by Yufei's "unintentional" revelation.
The programs that Yufei advised him on over the past two years have been a resounding success, both expected and unexpected, and he has now become the top star at Xiangcheng TV.
Furthermore, its viewership ranked among the top two nationwide, slightly lower than the evening news program, but still the highest in its time slot nationwide.
