Chapter 40: My god, they actually launched the hidden model? _1

“Do you guys think he can unbox the hidden item?”
“I doubt it, although the organizer didn’t say how many hidden items there are this time, it should be very hard to get one.”
“But he’s the king of Europe, with such good luck before; maybe he really can unbox it.”
“That’s true, his luck is really otherworldly, maybe he really can unbox the hidden item.”
“A single hidden item can be worth up to eighty thousand, if he really unboxes it, that’s hitting the jackpot…”
While everyone at the scene was whispering, Tang Feng had already opened the first blind box.
Inside the box was a cardboard holder, which he pulled out and unfolded, revealing a very cartoonish toy.
As the crowd took a clear look at the toy, a collective sigh of disappointment arose.
“Ah, it’s SpongeBob, not the Daughter of Earth.”
“I told you, how could the hidden item be so easy to unbox?”
“You really believe in the existence of the king of Europe? I sure don’t.”
“Looks like even luck runs out, if he had really unboxed the hidden item right away, I would have wanted to hit someone.”
“Sure enough, luck isn’t reliable…”
There were those who felt sorry and those who reveled in schadenfreude at the scene.
“Actually, SpongeBob isn’t bad, right Xinling?” Song Lele, afraid that Tang Feng would feel guilty, hurriedly nudged her best friend.
“Yeah, yeah, SpongeBob isn’t bad, I really want one too,” Xu Xinling hurriedly nodded in agreement.
But anyone with a discerning eye could see the disappointment on their faces.
Clearly, this toy wasn’t what they wanted.
Tang Feng was also helpless about this.
He wasn’t trying to be mysterious.
Because there were only two hidden items among these blind boxes, he could only pick an additional ordinary one.
Putting the toy aside, he continued to open the second box.
Many people at the scene had already lost interest, and some had even pushed through the crowd to watch others unbox.
With the experience from the first time, the second unboxing went much faster.
Suddenly, he pulled out the cardboard holder from inside.
And I’ll tell you, this toy was quite heavy.
If it weren’t for his Martial Arts Mastery, which greatly increased his strength, handling this toy would have actually been somewhat challenging.
When he lifted off that layer of cardboard holder, a big-headed toy appeared in front of him.
“This… is way too ugly, isn’t it?”
He couldn’t help but mutter.
At the same time, the noisy surroundings suddenly went silent, becoming incredibly quiet.
When he looked back, he saw the crowd looking at him with shocked expressions, their eyes glued to the toy he had just unboxed.
“Oh my god, did he really unbox a hidden item?”
Someone exclaimed in surprise, and the mood at the scene immediately exploded.
“Damn, did he really unbox the 1000% Daughter of Earth? His luck is too good, isn’t it?”
“Oh, my god! My heart can’t take this, he actually unboxed a hidden item?”
“My scalp is tingling right now, isn’t this too frightening? Can luck really be this good?”
“King of Europe, King of Europe, King of Europe…”
A bunch of girls went crazy, their voices suddenly pitched several octaves higher.
People who were watching others unbox upon hearing the scream, all crowded towards this side.
But this area was already packed three layers inside and three layers outside; they simply couldn’t squeeze in.
And those who had just walked away from Tang Feng were crying without tears.
Who could have imagined that this guy’s second blind box would actually contain the Daughter of Earth.
As for Song Lele and Xu Xinling, standing in the very middle, their eyes were wide open, staring at Tang Feng in disbelief.
“Lele, he… he actually unboxed a hidden item? Am I seeing things?” Xu Xinling urgently tugged at Song Lele’s arm.
“I suppose not?” Song Lele covered her mouth, her expression that of disbelief.
It took both of them a moment to react, then they rushed forward hastily, tentatively touching the doll.
“Wow, we really unboxed a hidden item!” Xu Xinling screamed, turned around, and hugged Tang Feng, “Boss, I don’t even know how to thank you, thank you, thank you…”
“Er… you’re welcome.” Tang Feng was immediately at a loss.
Being excited is understandable, but this shouldn’t be a reason to take advantage, right?
At that moment, Song Lele turned her head back and saw Xu Xinling holding Tang Feng tightly; her brows immediately furrowed.
“Xinling, can you show a little restraint? You’re like a lunatic, where’s your dignity?” She chided her unhappily, forgetting her own excitement just moments before.
Being reminded by her, Xu Xinling’s face turned red with embarrassment and she quickly let go of Tang Feng, “I was just too excited, it’s the Daughter of Earth after all, and it really came out. Lele, can you let me have this one, please? I’m begging you.”
Song Lele saw her best friend’s pleading look, glanced reluctantly at the toy, and finally nodded, “I’ll let you have it. But Tang Feng unboxed it, you have to pay him.”
Xu Xinling nodded frantically, “Of course, the 1000% Daughter of Earth is now bid up to eighty thousand, so I will transfer eighty thousand yuan to him.”
Tang Feng hadn’t really cared, but when he heard the price, he was startled, “What? A toy is worth eighty thousand yuan? Are you crazy?”
Song Lele gave him a look, “Otherwise, why do you think so many people come to unbox this hidden item? It’s because it’s really scarce.”
Xu Xinling also explained, “Yeah, the Daughter of Earth is limited to 2,500 pieces worldwide; it’s hard to buy even with money.”
“In the secondary market, the Daughter of Earth is already being flipped for over eighty thousand, and there’s still no supply for the demand.”
“In the collector’s circle, it’s like a divine presence, everyone wants to get one…”
“Even many well-known domestic celebrities take pride in getting this toy!”
The two of them explained, alternately speaking.
But Tang Feng still rolled his eyes.
He truly didn’t understand these rich people.
It’s just a toy, right?
And yet, it could be flipped for over eighty thousand a piece?
This is a generation gap if I’ve ever seen one.
