The first is the combination of sets. If a single card costs 90 baht, a 2 card set is 92 baht, a 3 card set is 94 baht, a 5 card set is 120 baht, and there will be a combination room that makes the lottery expensive. because people are willing to pay Another story is the quota lottery that sets the first-hand price. The price is 97 baht. When combined into a sub-lottery, the price will go down. and also renting a card for hundreds of thousands of years There is still a gang cheating on the lottery, such as the case of “Sor Jor. Dam” that bought an expensive lottery ticket and fell gold. he had been hit before The main reason is that the seller is because the buyer does not set the price.

When he sold the lotteries for the price of 80 baht for 9 months, no one was interested. I want to do business legally. As for the name “Lottery Plus”, it must be said that “Lottery Division” is a word that speaks among themselves. because Thailand has “Government Lottery Office”
“After hearing the news that the Azure Dragon had been searched I have informed the staff to be prepared, do not panic, because I believe that the police will not discriminate. But the nature of the business of the Azure Dragon is a trade between a business and an agent. Part of me will sell directly to customers.
