Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
Niu Gao. This name is too familiar to Li Qi, Yue Fei's loyal fan, but the big man in front of him is the Niu Gao he is familiar with, which remains to be verified, after all, the Niu Gao that Li Qi knows is not a gambler who is easily angry.
Steward Hong saw Li Qi suddenly stop and asked, "Master Li, what's wrong?" ”
Li Qi smiled slightly: "Steward Hong, please wait a little longer, I want to see this excitement before going." ”
"Yes, yes, people who throw pots with their eyes closed, I'm still the first to hear about it, it's not too late to see if I go again, anyway, my dad may not be up yet." Hong Tianjiu said with a smile.
Steward Hong glanced at Hong Tianjiu slightly, shook his head and sighed, he knew the young man's temperament too well, he stood aside and was silent, but Li Qi's sudden change made him feel a little puzzled.
There seemed to be a stalemate on that side, one asked for money, the other refused to give, although there were many onlookers, but in view of the fierce appearance of the big man, no one dared to come forward to persuade him.
"You bird, give the money quickly, otherwise don't blame your grandfather Niu for being polite." The big man seemed impatient, grabbed the man by the collar with one hand, and raised his fist bigger than a casserole.
The man almost fainted at the sight of the fist, trembled, and said, "I-I don't have any money." ”
"You."
The big man and leopard stared, and suddenly heard a shout from the side, "Stop." ”
The big man turned his head and saw that it was an idler, and shouted, "Where did you come from?" ”
When Li Qi heard this, he frowned and asked, "Steward Hong, have you seen this big man?" ”
Steward Hong shook his head and said, "It's also the first time I've seen this person. ”
"You man is so rude, you don't look at it, what kind of place is this, you dare to spread wild here, if you come to gamble, you will honestly give me gambling money, if you want to make trouble, get out of the way." The idler was furious, and commanded at him.
The big man snorted coldly: "If Lao Tzu doesn't go out, what can you do with me?" ”
"I see that you are looking for trouble, come on, blast this splash out for me." The idle man gave an order, and more than a dozen men with sticks immediately poured out from all directions, surrounding the big man.
Sweat! Where did these people come from.
Li Qi glanced at Steward Hong, and saw that his face was calm, and secretly admired that this person was not surprised, he was really a talent, and the Drunken Immortal Residence was now missing such a person, if Xiaoyu could do it like him in the future, it would be good.
It's lively now, who still gambles money, and they all come forward to watch the excitement.
The big man was surrounded by more than ten people, and he was not timid at all, but sneered: "Just with you birdmen, if you want Grandpa Niu to move your lower shins, I'm afraid it's not enough." ”
These words angered the idler, and he waved his big hand and said, "Give it to me." ”
"Wait."
Li Qi suddenly raised his hand and shouted.
Everyone turned their eyes to Li Qi, and many of them knew Li Qi, whispering one after another, and this excitement was really getting better and better.
Hong Tianjiu and Steward Hong were both stunned, looking at Li Qi in surprise.
"Everyone, please be angry, can you listen to the next word." Li Qi walked over and smiled slightly.
Although the idle man didn't know Li Qi, he also heard from Steward Hong that this person was their lord's honored guest, and he was a little at a loss at the moment, so he could only cast a look at Steward Hong for help.
Steward Hong just waved his hand slightly, signaling for him to withdraw the people.
When the idler received the order, he immediately shouted, "Go down." ”
It was amazing that the group of tricksters disappeared into the gambling house immediately.
Li Qi stepped forward, pointed to the man who was already scared to pee, and said, "This big brother, I see that you are almost a stick of incense with him, aren't you tired, or are you afraid that he will run away?" ”
"I'm afraid of him running?"
The big man snorted, pushed the man gently, and with a bang, the man leaned against the wall and sat down slowly, his eyes were a little demented, and it seemed that he was not lightly frightened. The big man said to Li Qi again: "Who are you?" ”
Li Qi smiled slightly: "The cook in the Drunken Immortal Residence, Li Qi." ”
The big man seemed to have heard of Li Qi's name, and said: "Oh, I've heard of you, it's your stinky tofu that has smoked this Bianjing City, but the things in your store are too expensive, so I don't dare to go." ”
When everyone heard that this big man was so straightforward, they couldn't help laughing.
Li Qi smiled and said, "If you plan to come to the shop for a meal with this ten yuan money, then I'm afraid it won't be as you wish, because you don't want to return the ten yuan money." ”
"Are you the helper this guy called?" The big man frowned.
Li Qi shook his head and said, "I don't know him. ”
The big man wondered, "Then why do you say that?" ”
Li Qi smiled, pointed to the man sitting on the ground, and said: "Look at him, dressed shabby, his eyes are blank, his Yin Tang is black, and he looks unlucky, he must have fought here all night last night, and he lost all his money, not to mention ten yuan, even ten yuan, I don't think he can get it, even if you kill him, he can't make up ten yuan for you." ”
The big man glanced at the man fiercely, frowned, and seemed to think that what Li Qi said made sense, and shouted, "Then according to what you said, what should I do?" ”
Li Qi said: "I see that you are also red-eyed and want the money back, so let's do it, I will give you the money privately, let you try your luck again, that's it, what do you think?" ”
"Consistent money?"
The big man snorted and said, "It's too little, at least ten dollars." ”
Sweat! You're too happy, aren't you?
Li Qi felt angry and funny, Hong Tianjiu on the side couldn't bear it, and said: "You don't know what to do, my eldest brother is kind enough to help you, you are still so rude, isn't it really that I am a bully in Hong Wan's gambling house." ”
The big man shouted: "What about the Hongwan gambling house? If it weren't for Lao Tzu waiting for this money to save his life, Lao Tzu wouldn't have come to your bird place. ”
Hong Tianjiu had ever suffered such a bird spirit, and it was still in his own territory, and he was ready to fight as soon as he rolled up his sleeves, Li Qi hurriedly stopped him when he saw it, and then smiled at the big man: "I don't know the name of the strong man?" ”
The big man patted his chest and said: "Lao Tzu Xing will not change his name, he will not change his surname, his surname is Niu, and his name is Gao." ”
Li Qi nodded and said, "Okay, I'll give you ten pieces of money." ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the audience froze, ten times the money is too much for them, and it is used as their wages for several months, the cook didn't say a word, he gave ten times of money to others, and he was still someone he didn't know, which was really confusing.
Niu Gao was also flustered, he just said it casually, he didn't expect Li Qi to really agree, and subconsciously said: "Why do you want to give me money?" ”
Li Qi smiled: "Don't ask this. ”
"I can't ask for that. You don't owe me anything, I can't ask you for it. Niu Gao shook his head and said.
Li Qi smiled: "That's okay, just when I borrow you ten times, and then you pay me back when you have money, didn't you say that you waited for this money to save your life, did you ignore people's lives for the sake of that little self-esteem." So saying, he took a piece of silver, handed it over, and said, "Is this silver enough?" ”
Niu Gao stared at the silver, hesitated for a while, reached out to take the silver, hugged his fists and said: "This silver is borrowed from me, and I will pay you back when I have money another day." ”
Li Qi smiled: "It's easy to say, it's easy to say." ”
"Thank you. I still have something to do, so I'll go first. ”
"Please."
Niu Gao clenched his fists again, and then shook off his stride and walked outside.
After Niu Gao left, Hong Tianjiu frowned and said dissatisfiedly: "Brother Li, why do you want to borrow money from him?" ”
Li Qi smiled and said: "Just because his name is Niu Gao, this name is worth this money." As he spoke, he patted Hong Tianjiu's shoulder again and said with a smile: "Let's go, your father should also get up." ”
Out of the back door, walk through a cobblestone path, into a gate, there is really a hole inside, as Li Qi imagined, this mansion is really no worse than the Qin Mansion, green grass, green trees, the air quality is much better than the stinky gambling house, maids, family members walk in groups, a prosperous scene.
The three of them came to the hall in the front yard, and when they saw that there was no one inside, Steward Hong said, "Master Li, please wait, I'll go and invite the master now." ”
"Then the housekeeper will be troubled."
That Hong Tianjiu really didn't treat Li Qi as an outsider, he sat on the chair, crossed his legs, threw the candied fruit on the table into his mouth, and said vaguely: "Brother Li, don't stand all the time, sit quickly, my father will come later." ”
Li Qi nodded sneeringly, sat down, and said curiously: "Xiao Jiu, does your father usually get up at this hour?" ”
"Pretty much."
Li Qi nodded weakly, thinking that this gambling king would really enjoy life.
After a while, with a loud and loud voice, a middle-aged man walked in from the outside, about forty years old, just from the appearance, it was simply an adult version of Hong Tianjiu, with white skin, a goatee, and well-dressed, at a glance, he knew that he was a successful person, so he shouldn't have a hoarse voice, but it would never be just getting up.
"Where was Richie born?"
The man walked in and shouted excitedly.
When Li Qi saw this man, he was not surprised, the gambling king he imagined should be a reckless man, with a full face and beard, and his clothes and shoes were untidy, he never thought that he was so handsome, and he was dressed very decently, which really surprised him.
"Daddy." Hong Tianjiu got up and shouted weakly.
This man is the big boss of Hong Wan's gambling house, Hong Bajin.
Li Qi was slightly stunned, and hurriedly got up and said, "Li Qi has seen Uncle Hong. ”
Hong Bajin glanced at Li Qi and said, "You are Li Qi?" ”
Li Qi nodded wryly.
"You cook so strangely, how do you look like a woman?"
Exercise! Lao Tzu is called handsome, will you appreciate it?
Li Qi looked at the man innocently and said, "Uncle Hong smiled." As he spoke, he handed over the basket again, and said with a smile: "The little nephew heard that Uncle Hong has always liked to eat chicken butts, so he specially made a chicken butt, which is a small meaning, not a tribute." ”
When Hong Bajin heard the chicken butt, his eyes flashed, and he laughed: "Gifts from outside the staff, and dishes from the cook, interesting, interesting." As he spoke, he eagerly uncovered the basket, and the strange smell came out.
Hong Tianjiu jumped back, covered his nose and said, "Wow! It smells terrible. ”
Hong Bajin stared at the strings of chicken butts in the basket and said, "What do you know about this kid, get out of the way." Tsk, this chicken butt is fat and juicy, and you know it's the best at a glance. ”
At this moment, another voice suddenly came from outside, "Wow, wow, what is it, it smells so good." ”
Before he could finish speaking, an old man with a white beard ran in.
