Chapter 443: The Fortune Boy
"Phew! What's wrong! Today Lao Tzu opened, do you say that the big thing is not good? What do you mean! ”
Ergou hurriedly slapped himself twice and said, "Master Hou, the little one knows the mistake, you hurry up and hide, Your Majesty is here!" ”
"Your Majesty is here so early?" Li Mu was surprised, frowned and glared at Ergou, and said, "Your Majesty is here to congratulate me, what am I hiding?" How can I reuse you if I have such no eyesight? Get away, and don't appear in front of me for an hour. ”
"Yes......" Ergou only agreed, but he was wondering in his heart, this is a gambling house, and the Hou Ye is not afraid that His Majesty will know? Sure enough, it is worthy of the Hou Ye, and there is a way!
Li Muying arrived at the door, and almost wrote the words "harmony and wealth" on his face, at this moment he seemed to have traveled back to his previous life, and he had the posture of meeting Party A's father in person, far away, his waist bent down, his hand stretched out far away, grabbed Li Shimin's hand, held it cordially, and said: "Your Majesty can come, it really makes the Four Seas Gambling House shine, oops, the queen is also here, this is really enough to give the kid face, how is this good-"
"Okay, put away your face, I look disgusting." Li Shimin furrowed his brows, looked up at the four big characters of "Four Seas Gambling House", which were exactly the same as the four words on "Kaiyuan Tongbao", and knew that Li Mu must have written it himself, so he couldn't help but snort. Good boy, after the calligraphy is completed, I don't even look for inscriptions.
Without speaking, he crossed Li Mu and left him aside.
Li Mu was stunned for a moment, but he didn't care, and went to talk to Empress Eldest Sun again with a smile on his face. Seeing Gonggong Gao, he handed over a look, Gonggong Gao's understanding was slightly bowed, Li Mu also knew in his heart that when he was free later, Gonggong Gao would come to look for him. Yesterday, his godson returned to the palace and spoke for Li Mu, and Gonggong Gao was also very curious about what surprise gifts Li Mu had prepared for him.
The various facilities of the gambling house can be explained by the trained personnel, but Li Shimin must come in person. Li Mu took Li Shimin and Empress Changsun to visit the various facilities of the gambling house, and they were very interested. This is also expected by Li Mu, in the final analysis, they are all people in their early thirties, in Li Mu's previous life, people at this age are the age when they like to play.
After walking through pai gow, mahjong, poker and other areas, I came to a three-foot-wide roulette wheel. There was a person standing next to the roulette, and when he saw Li Mu leading people over, he hurried over to greet him.
Li Shimin was very curious about the roulette wheel, he walked to the front of the roulette wheel and took a closer look at it for a while. Raising his hand to touch it, the person in charge of this roulette saw this, and subconsciously wanted to stop it, but was glared at by Li Mu, and stood aside in a proper manner.
Li Shimin touched the roulette wheel, and suddenly found that it could rotate, which was even more interesting, and turned around and asked Li Mu, "What is this?" ”
"Your Majesty, this thing is called the Wheel of Fortune. The game is very simple, you can see that there are no numbers on this wheel, from one to thirty-six, a total of thirty-six parts. The order is shuffled and written on it, in black and white. Before playing, place your bets. There's a pointer here, grab the wheel and turn it around, the pointer will land on a spot, and whoever hits that position wins. ”
"Interesting." Li Shimin smiled: "Wait a while, I will come and play this roulette." ”
"Wait." Empress Eldest Sun suddenly spoke, she frowned and looked at this roulette, and said, "Li Mu, no matter how you play this roulette, you will win, isn't this a pit man?" ”
How could Li Mu admit this notoriety, and hurriedly said: "The queen doesn't slander people, I'm a gambling boy who is not bullied, how can I be said to be a cheater?" ”
Empress Changsun pointed to the roulette wheel and said: "There are thirty-six grids on it, and the pointer can only point to one grid, in other words, the person who bets has only one possibility of winning, and the dealer has thirty-five possibilities of winning, the chance of winning is very small, and the chance of losing is very large. ”
"Oops......" Li Mu let out a sigh, he also thought that Empress Changsun was extremely smart and saw through the probability problem of roulette, it turned out that it was just that the rules were unknown, but he was startled.
Li Mu hurriedly explained: "The queen's words are wrong, this lucky wheel, I don't make money, it's purely a game project, specifically for people who can't gamble, a way to participate, you listen to me, you know how conscience I am." ”
It's good not to hear the word "conscience", but when they hear these two words, Empress Changsun and Li Shimin have already concluded in their hearts that this lucky wheel must be a trap. It's just that they couldn't see how it was pitted, they looked at each other, pursed their lips and said nothing, waiting to hear how Li Mu explained.
"You look at the black and white on the wheel, half black, half white. When placing a bet, you can press the color, for example, if you press white, no matter how you turn, as long as it is white, then you win. Pressing one pays one, do you think this is fair or not? Half black, half white! ”
I really can't find anything wrong with this, and Empress Eldest Sun has no words.
"Look at this number again, there are single and double, thirty-six numbers, and the single and even each account for half, and it is also a loss for one, fair, right?"
"You can also press the size, one to eighteen is small, nineteen to thirty-six is large, and each accounts for half, and one pays one, right?"
"If you're daring, you're coming! Didn't you just say that if you press one number, only one can win, and thirty-five can lose? That's good, you press a number, win, one loses thirty-five, and if you lose, you lose one. If you press thirty-five times, as long as you win once, you won't lose, and if you win two, three, or four times, then I will lose to death. Isn't that enough conscience? ”
"Hmm......" Empress Changsun couldn't answer, but a woman's intuition was terrifying, she looked at this roulette, how to look at it, how did she feel that there was a problem. Li Shimin also looked at it for a long time, and said: "That's it, Wuji, if this kid calculates people, he won't let people see it, don't bother with it, it's not interesting." ”
Li Mu also hurriedly said: "Yes, yes, the two elders are not here to smash my field, they still focus on participation, and have fun!" ”
Empress Eldest Sun also smiled and said, "I'm just curious, let's go, let's see where we go next." ”
Li Mu let out a sigh and quickly took the two of them away from this place of right and wrong.
I walked around and introduced all the projects. Li Mu found a trained waiter and led Li Shimin and Empress Changsun to the private room on the second floor to rest. Before he could rest for a while, the eldest grandson Wuji, Wang Qi and others came together, and he hurried to receive him, so busy that his feet did not touch the ground. But these people, there is no need for him to explain it personally, just deal with it, accept the congratulatory gifts, and give them to the other waiters.
Today, the threshold of the Four Seas Gambling House cannot be entered by ordinary wealthy households. Although Li Mu has been advertising for several days, as long as he has money, he can enter the door. But generally people with a few money, seeing that the people who came to congratulate them today are all some national princes and three products, and then weigh their own identity, they will be discouraged.
This is also something that cannot be helped, as long as there are people, there must be classes. And the gambling house is so big, everyone comes in one go, and it is really unbearable. But for those who didn't come, the congratulatory gifts have arrived. In particular, the principals of various families who have business dealings with the Ministry of Internal Affairs have more than 1,000 congratulatory gifts. No way, who dares not to send it? If you don't send it, that's it, it's a big deal. I'm afraid that if I don't send it, someone will send it, and that's a big bad.
No one dared to bet on what others would do, so they had no choice but to honestly send congratulatory gifts.
After receiving Li Chengqian, Li Tai, Qin Huaidao, Li Siwen and others, when it was close to unitary, Changsun Chong came with his classmates, and everyone prepared a congratulatory gift. The people who can enter the "Datang Technical School" are all wealthy, and everyone's congratulatory gifts are more than 100 times, which makes Li Mu happy.
"Master Hou, I just counted, just the money for the congratulatory gift, not counting things, has already passed 100,000 yuan." Ergou's voice was trembling, he was surprised by Li Mu's generosity yesterday, today he knows, Hou Ye is really Hou Ye, he dares to spend, he can also earn, just receiving gifts will receive 100,000 yuan, looking at the entire Chang'an City, is there a second person?
Thinking of this, Ergou was also excited. I think my second dog was originally an errand boy in the West Market, what kind of virtue did my ancestors accumulate, can I meet Hou Ye, if I don't do things for Hou Ye well, then is it still a person?
Self-brainwashing is the deadliest. Li Mu looked at Ergou's eyes shining, but he was startled, and subconsciously moved away from Ergou, and said, "It's only 100,000 yuan, isn't this normal?" Money, things outside the body, don't take it so seriously. You take out the list I gave you at noon, compare it carefully, see which one is less, and mark it for me. ”
Ergou was stunned for a moment and said, "Master Hou, it's not that you don't take it so seriously-"
Li Mu was suddenly annoyed and angry: "I just want to know who sent less, did I say what to do with them?" Why is your idea so complicated? Am I like the kind of person who will retaliate against him if he gives me less gifts? ”
Li Mu's voice was "slightly" louder, and many people nearby heard it. Ergou sweated on his forehead, and thought to himself, Master Hou, you really look like that kind of person.
"Get out of the way, it's annoying to see you."
Li Mu waved his hand, and Ergou hurriedly slipped away. Suddenly, he found that there seemed to be a lot of people looking at it, so he hurriedly put on a smiling face and said: "Everyone can play casually, today the Four Seas Gambling House opened, Ben Hou is happy, each person will send a hundred chips, if you lose, count me, if you win, take it!" ”
When everyone heard that there was still money back, they were all happy, and all kinds of congratulatory words smashed over, Li Mu laughed, waved his hand and went up to the second floor, and came to the terrace in the middle, and the huge lanterns on both sides lit up, illuminating the front of the gambling house as bright as day.
At this time, in front of the gambling house, Wu Yang was full of people. They all read the newspaper and learned that there would be three "money rains" today, so they came to join in the fun. At this time, it was the unitary time, the first time "Qian Yu", everyone saw the lantern lit, and saw Li Mu, they knew that "Qian Yu" was coming, and all eyes instantly gathered on Li Mu.
"Everyone, you know who I am, right?"
"Master Hou!" / "Chase the deer! /"We all know each other, when will it rain when it rains!" ”
When there are many people, the fear decreases a lot. These shouters, if they take out one of them, they may not dare to speak in front of Li Mu, but they are not afraid of being mixed in the crowd.
Li Mu didn't mind, held up the "megaphone" made of bamboo, and said: "Today, the Four Seas Gambling House opened, everyone has read the newspaper, and I don't go around the corner, this Four Seas Gambling House is the industry opened by Ben Hou." Today, Benhou has a total of three industries, Bashang Wine Workshop, Jingdong Set's Fengqiu Huang, and this Four Seas Gambling House. There will definitely be one in the future, and the big guys are indispensable. To thank you guys, I'm not going to talk nonsense. Give everyone something real, come on, bring it over! ”
Li Mu shouted, and there were four big men, carrying up a huge box. Then the big man went down and came up with four beauties. These four beauties were all very famous musicians who were originally in the Jiaofang Division, and some in the crowd recognized them and shouted one after another.
Li Mu opened the box, took a handful from it, and picked it up to show everyone.
"It's full of money in this box! I don't know exactly how many. There must be at least a few thousand pieces of silver, copper coins, and gold bars, depending on your luck. Today's first money rain, let these four sisters come to help, it's going to rain, thunder, right? ”
The drums were beating like thunder. Before everyone could react, suddenly a gong sounded, and the four beauties each reached into the box, grabbed a handful and threw it down.
Everyone didn't expect it to be so simple and direct. Seeing the money smashed on the head, they all reacted, and they didn't care about looking at the beauties, so they all started to grab money.
I didn't pick it up when it fell to the ground, and it fell on my head again. The unlucky one smashed an ingot, smashed a big bag on his head, and bounced off, so angry that he screamed.
Li Mu also grabbed the money and threw it on the ground, shouting, "Did anyone get the gold bar?" Making a fortune is at this moment, there is an ingots over there, alas, yes, yes, grab it, don't let others rob it! ”
There was no shortage of commotion.
In about a quarter of an hour, a large box of money was scattered. Li Mu laughed and said, "There are still a lot of copper coins on the ground, everyone pick them up slowly, there are two more tonight, thank you for your support!" ”
"Thank you, Lord Hou!" / "Hou Ye is incomparably benevolent and righteous! "/"Hou Ye is righteous and squandering money! ”
If you get money, your mouth will naturally be like touching honey, and the shouts will be endless.
Li Mu led people to remove from the terrace, and the two lanterns were blown out, and everyone knew that when the lanterns were lit again, it would be the time to pay the money next time.
Some people are counting how much money they robbed, some people didn't grab it and were red-eyed in frustration, and more people took advantage of this hour to go back and call friends.
The newspaper seller Wang San'er was also among them, he was lucky, an ingots fell directly in the gutter in front of him, he saw it, rolled in directly and pressed it, and got ten taels of silver. Squatting in the gutter, touching this ingot, Wang San'er couldn't believe it, is this true? He bit the ingots hard and smiled stupidly, it's true! Get rich!
