Chapter 368: Drinking all night
Wen Bin's brothers sometimes make small bets when they have nothing to do, but it is only a few taels of silver, at most a dozen taels of silver, and the gambling is the host of eating and drinking, and there is never a gambling game of hundreds of taels of silver. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info don't talk about them, even in the big casinos in Suzhou and Nanjing, tens of thousands of taels of silver can be regarded as a big gamble, and a gamble of 40,000 taels of silver may not be a year ago.
Wen Bin and the others looked at Chen Musa and Lian Daning, and they understood the true meaning of what the teacher said was biased towards him. It's not false at all, it's really too partial. They usually fight a small gamble, have to be afraid, lest the teacher find out, a bitter reprimand, now this shocking gamble happened under the noses of the two, the two teachers actually pretended to be deaf and dumb, silent, and there is no other reason, just because this is the gambling game launched by the situation.
"Besides, with such a big bet, won't you be under too much pressure?" Pomegranate was a little worried.
Indeed, 5,000 taels of silver is already a lot of pressure, but I didn't expect it to skyrocket to 40,000 taels all of a sudden, which is all the property of ordinary high-class families, of course, the rich are different.
"I said, I want to fight, and the more pressure there is, the better it may be. Besides.
Qiu Xiang persuaded: "Son, don't be so stressed, it's a big deal to use the share you gave me to slowly pay back Master Zhou." ”
Wen Jie also said: "And me, you are famous, that game will definitely make a lot of money, and you can use the money from selling the game to pay off your debts." ”
Besides, he smiled bitterly: "Can you give me a little confidence, why do you think that it must be me who loses?"
Qiu Xiang hurriedly changed her words and said: "No, I just said in case, of course I believe that you will definitely win, you will definitely win, come on!"
"I believe in you too, defeat him!" Wen Jie was really confident about the situation.
Lian Daning accompanied Chen Musa, who was in the middle of drinking, and was still muttering in his heart: "Besides, what is the intention? I still don't understand." ”
Chen Musa smiled: "He wants to put enough pressure on himself and burst out his full potential, which is actually challenging his own limit." He doesn't approve of this overdraft, but he understands it. Young people are impulsive, which is a shortcoming, but also an advantage, and people's creativity often comes from this impulsiveness.
"He has the talent and the potential, and I'm relieved. However, potential is not a panacea. Lian Daning frowned and smiled bitterly.
Originally, he would never tolerate this kind of thing, but with Chen Musa present today, he could only obey Chen Musa's wishes. Chen Musa connived, and he had to pretend not to see it.
He just wanted to teach himself a hard enough lesson to motivate him to study hard. Chen Musa still understands more and can see through his thoughts.
"If that's the case, I'll be able to understand, it's only 40,000 taels of silver, wouldn't this be too bad?
"I don't know everything about him, besides, you are also his teacher, do you know all about him?" Chen Musa said with a smile.
The two of them looked at the magical flying on the side, and felt that this disciple was really full of mysteries, which made people unable to see through and figure it out, but they liked it very much.
"Lao Shen, why don't you make a bet?" Wen Zhengming no matter what he thought, he felt that he had won the 20,000 taels of silver, and he was excited in his heart, such a huge amount of money, buying a house and land, and managing it well, it was enough to live for the rest of his life.
"I'm not involved in this kind of thing, it's not interesting. "Shen Zhouyun is light and light.
"Wallgrass. Tang Bohu said disdainfully.
"I'm just a centrist, not biased, and by no means a wall-to-wall grass. Shen Zhou solemnly declared.
"I don't understand, why do you send money out when you know you're going to lose? Wen Zhengming really couldn't understand it.
"You think everyone is like you, falling into the well. Wen Zhengchen was indignant at his cousin's behavior.
He also thought that he would definitely lose, and he bet a thousand taels of silver just because he couldn't swallow this breath, so he would rather throw it away.
"It shows that he has a lot of money and wants to stone me to death with silver. Tang Bohu was indignant.
Today, he lost home, not in poetry, let alone anything else, but in Qiu Xiang, whom he values the most. He has tried every possible way to see Qiu Xiang these days but can't, and with a light call, Qiu Xiang will appear immediately. Although Qiu Xiang still gave him a little face later, this face was given entirely because of the situation, so he lost a lot.
"Yes, you can buy any kind of beauty for 10,000 taels of silver, he gave away three ingredients just to please Qiu Xiang, this person is too strange. Wen Zhengming said in accordance with Tang Bohu's thoughts.
Wen Zhengming couldn't understand Besides, if someone said that he didn't mean anything to Qiu Xiang, he wouldn't believe it, but what made him even more puzzled was that Pomegranate didn't say anything about it, it stands to reason that Pomegranate would never tolerate this kind of thing, and Chen Musa is the same, is there a deeper reason here?
"Anyone can buy 10,000 taels of silver? Then when I win 20,000 taels of silver, please buy Qiu Xiang for me." Tang Bohu didn't want to listen to this.
"I'm not talking about Qiu Xiang, people are also rich now, and they can't afford it at all. Wen Zhengming said with a haha.
When the time came, the female guests and a few businessmen couldn't stand it, and said goodbye and left, and when they left, a few noblewomen did not forget to squeeze their eyebrows and make their hairs stand on end.
"It's shameless. Qiu Xiang scolded in a low voice.
Pomegranate tugged at his sleeve tightly, feeling very nervous, as if he was really afraid that he would be abducted by these cheeky half-aged. I was also thinking in my heart, besides, now that I am famous, there are more people who will be worried about it in the future, so I really have to pay attention to it, in case someone snatches it away, there is no place to cry.
The rest are all students of Lian Daning, as well as Tang Bohu, Wen Zhengming, and Shen Zhou, Chen Musofa talked, if he was not drunk, he would not return, and these people had to sacrifice their lives to accompany the gentleman, and no one dared to leave halfway.
Father Zhou and Zhou Dingcheng naturally went without saying, they were all accompanying left and right, even Sisi, Qiu Xiang, and Xiao Nier were all in high spirits, and they didn't feel sleepy at all, only Wen Jie couldn't stay up, found a room, and went to sleep by himself.
This side is gradually calming, but the restaurant is becoming more and more lively, a group of guests left, and immediately came in again, all of them heard that there are poems of great poets on display here, and came to observe and appreciate.
Now that you have entered the restaurant, of course, you can't just observe the poems, but also taste the food invented by the great talent, one hot pot after another, one by one, the food is served in turn, and then the empty plates are removed, and then you have to entertain the next wave of guests.
The shopkeeper of the restaurant began to sweat nervously, and he had prepared the ingredients for ten days, but now it hasn't been all night, and most of them have been sold, and I don't know if they can support it until dawn.
After Zhou's father and Wen Bin knew about this situation, they could only smile bitterly, they didn't expect it to be so popular today, and of course the profit was quite considerable, but in the middle of the night, the turnover had reached 10,000 taels of silver, and the hot pot was 200% of the profit, and the work of this night could net 6,000 taels, and the original best estimate was that it was only a thousand taels of profit a month.
It's hard to repeat this kind of spectacle in the future, but this one night alone is amazing enough.
"As soon as the city gate opens tomorrow, I will immediately go to the nearby county to allocate and buy ingredients. Father Zhou arranged.
In the second half of the night, there was another special guest in the restaurant, the lord of the Humble Administrator's Garden, Wang Gong, who also brought two servants and a beautiful maid.
Seeing this adult, everyone was in awe, this is the big guy who has done the imperial history of the Imperial Palace, although now Zhishi is at home, no one dares to underestimate it, Father Zhou and Wen Bin heard the news and rushed to accompany them.
The prince refused the invitation of the Zhou family and his son to listen to him, but stood in front of the poem and read it for a long time, and he didn't know what to think in his head, and the beautiful maid beside him made all the men arrest and dare not take a second look.
The prince watched for a quarter of an hour, and then drifted away, during which time he did not say a word, leaving endless conjectures.
As soon as the prince left, a few more imposing people came in, and many guests who were drinking and chatting about poetry recognized the comers, these were Zhang Xuecheng, the chief staff of the prefect's yamen, and a few colleagues.
They also just heard that there were poems on display here, so they hurriedly came over to watch, and the prefect Wei Gao was embarrassed to go with him.
Zhang Xuecheng occupied a table on the third floor, asked for wine and food, of course, mutton shabu is indispensable, while eating, while watching the poems, and arguing about something from time to time, until dawn, he took advantage of the joy and left.
At dawn, almost everyone was drunk, only besides, Zhou Dingcheng and Shen Fang could still sit and not fall. Father Zhou had already arranged that everyone who was drunk was sent back to their respective homes, Pomegranate also accompanied the drunken Chen Musa home, and Lian Daning was supported by the officials to return home. Tang Bohu, Wen Zhengming and others did not return, Wen Bin arranged a room for them to rest, and everyone also arranged for their family members to guard. Xiao Nier was also arranged by Sisi and went to rest with Qiu Xiang.
Father Zhou and Wen Bin didn't drink much, they were the principals that day, and they had to be arranged by Zhang Luo inside and out, even at this moment, they had to go upstairs and downstairs Zhang Luo.
"This big drama has finally come to an end, boy, do you want to shine again in a month?" Zhou Dingcheng was also a little too much, and asked with drunken eyes.
"I didn't think about anything, I just wanted to do everything I could. And smiled mysteriously.
"That's right. Shen Fang only said one word, and then slipped out of the chair to the ground, unable to support it anymore.
Wen Bin hurriedly came up to help Shen Fang, called a family member, picked him up, and went to the guest room to stay.
Zhou Dingcheng didn't know if he couldn't speak clearly, or he couldn't find the words, he gave a thumbs up to him, meaning to praise his behavior today.
Moreover, at this time, he was more sober than when he was not drinking, and he suddenly had a feeling in his heart that he had grown up, and from today on, he would really grow up and enter the ranks of adults.
