Super Rich from Winning a Lottery-Chapter 344 - 243: Who Plagiarized Whom?

At the same time, another battle began, which was the competition of electronic payments.

With the arrival of the 3G era, smartphones now have the function of QR code payment, and electronic payments have started to develop from online to offline.

Just use your phone to easily scan a QR code and complete the payment, no need to carry your wallet when going out, and no need to worry about pickpockets when taking the bus.

As for shop owners, collecting payments is also convenient; they can receive money directly through QR codes.

Both TaoPay and QuietPay attach great importance to the offline QR code payment market, with one actively promoting in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and the other in eastern Guangdong, dispatching large teams to streets and alleys to vigorously promote QR code payments to shop owners.

To promote QR code payments, QuietPay first launched a QR code scanning event to receive red envelopes, with very big rewards—first-time QR code scans could win tens of yuan in red envelopes for store payment if you're lucky.

Moreover, the QR code scanning event runs daily, and you can get a red envelope from scanning a QR code each day.

However, if you haven't spent the red envelope earned from scanning, you won't be able to scan for another red envelope; to get another, you must spend the previous one to be able to scan for a new one the next day.

Such good news spread quickly by word of mouth and gained strong recommendations from shop owners who had already adopted QR code payments, making many people love getting red envelopes through scanning.

In a rice noodle shop, a young man finished eating his rice noodles and took out his wallet, asking the shop owner, "I'm ready to pay, how much?"

"Two yuan!" the shop owner replied with a smile.

"Hey! Now you can pay by scanning a QR code; have you installed the QuietPay app on your phone?"

"You can get red envelopes by scanning QR codes now; a girl just got 88 yuan by scanning and getting a red envelope."

"Getting a red envelope of 88 yuan is considered extremely lucky, but even if it's a bit less, you can still get something like ten or twenty yuan on your first attempt."

"Plus, you can scan for a red envelope every day from now on; the amount will become smaller, but you'll still get one or two yuan daily, almost enough for breakfast."

"Are you serious, or are you joking? Is there really a red envelope worth 88 yuan just from scanning? QuietPay would go bankrupt!" The young man was shocked and found it hard to believe.

"It's real, why would I lie to you? I first got 23 yuan; today I scanned and got 1.38 yuan, which is the least I've received, but yesterday I got 3.1 yuan!"

The shop owner spoke while showing her phone, opening the QuietPay page to show the young man the red envelopes she received daily from scanning.

"Wow! Is it really this great? Then I need to download QuietPay quickly, scan to get a red envelope and see how much I can get."

The young man said excitedly after seeing the red envelopes the shop owner had received.

He was just a factory worker without a computer, so he didn't develop online shopping habits; without a computer, online shopping was inconvenient.

Many knew online goods were cheap, but those without computers had to go to internet cafés or find friends who owned computers to buy things online.

But now the Quiet online supermarket app is available on phones, allowing direct online shopping, much more convenient than before.

However, many workers still use functional phones, like Nokia, which can make calls and be used as a walnut cracker.

These functional phones can't install the Quiet supermarket app, making direct online shopping from phones unfeasible.

But the young man recently switched to a Huaxing smartphone and installed the Quiet Online Supermarket app, though he hadn't downloaded the QuietPay app.

Now, knowing about QuietPay's app and scanning for red envelopes, what more reason did he need?

So, he promptly downloaded the QuietPay app and scanned the QR code for receiving a red envelope.

"Wow, I just got 28 yuan; scanning for a red envelope is seriously amazing! Can I use the red envelope to pay for the two yuan rice noodle bill now?" The young man said excitedly.

"Yes, you can scan my payment code now and pay two yuan." The shop owner replied cheerfully.

"But it's best to use that 28 yuan red envelope today, then you can scan for another one tomorrow."

"Though tomorrow's red envelope won't be as large, maybe just a few yuan; if lucky, seven or eight yuan, if unlucky, maybe only two or three yuan."

"Getting seven or eight yuan tomorrow wouldn't be bad! Even two or three yuan is fine, it's free money anyway." The young man said happily.

The shop owner's passionate promotion of QuietPay's QR code scanning for red envelopes was driven by profit; the more people she got to scan at her store, the more commission she would earn.
