Since today's guests are either rich or expensive, the Hong family does not dare to slack off, so they also prepare a banquet before the start of the gambling game for the guests to enjoy, and the reception is very good. When Li Qi and Zhao Jingyan came to the cabin, they saw that it was already crowded inside, and there were all kinds of wine and delicacies on the long tables around them, obviously this was a buffet party. Gao Yu, Li Bangyan and others stood at the table inside, while the crown prince Zhao Huan stood closer to the outside with a group of foreign guests, and the camp was clearly divided.

"Richie, why are you here?" As soon as Li Qi came in, Zhao Huan walked over, followed by a few foreign friends. As soon as he finished speaking, he noticed Zhao Jingyan who was hiding behind Li Qi.

Zhao Jingyan quietly stood back, widening the distance from Li Qi, as if she didn't want too many people to notice her, and when she saw that Zhao Huan had found her, she secretly smiled slyly at Zhao Huan. Zhao Huan also knew that this cousin had a strange temperament, but he didn't bother with her, but just secretly handed over two blaming glances.

Li Qi used to say: "Sassy class, sao class, traffic jam on the road." ”

Traffic? Zhao Huan was stunned for a moment, and secretly thought, this excuse is inevitably exaggerated. However, he didn't care, his hand was drawn to his side, and he said, "Come on, come on, I'll introduce a few VIPs." ”

He first pointed to a dark-skinned and black-bearded strong man on the left and introduced: "This is the prince of the Great Food, Saudi Arabia. Mohammed. ”

This great cannibal was the ancestor of the Arabs and Jews of later generations, and his name was supposed to be pronounced Muhammad. Saudi, but the Great Song people are not accustomed to putting their surnames behind. Their clan and nobles have gone to the sea, so it is very common for princes to be the king's sons.

Li Qi looked at Muhammad slightly, about thirty-six or seventeen years old, looked more calm and cautious, and arched his hand: "Long admiration, long admiration." ”

Zhao Huan then led his hand to a man in his early thirties with blond hair and white skin, a high nose, and said, "This is the third prince of Byzantium, Prince Ilt. ”

Because the Western Regions attached great importance to this year's envoy to the Great Song Dynasty. So the envoys sent were all very heavyweight.

Li Qi looked at the three princes with arrogant expressions, squinted at people, and secretly complained in his heart, this Byzantium is feeding on, and it is not embarrassing for me to send such an arrogant prince to talk about business. But he said hello with a smile on his face.

Then he brought a few envoys and wealthy merchants from the Western Regions. He also introduced to the envoys of the Western Regions: "This is the most outstanding hero of my Great Song Dynasty in recent years, and also the first economic envoy of my Great Song Dynasty, Li Qi." ”

They had all inquired about Li Qi, but they couldn't help but be very surprised to see Li Qi so young. At the same time, there was a hint of contempt in his eyes.

Most of the envoys from the rest of the countries knew Li Qi, and they all came up to salute and greet him.

Li Qi bowed his hand one by one, and smiled at Muhammad and other envoys from the Western Regions: "You have come from afar, as economic envoys, you should go to visit, but unfortunately you are busy with official business, and you can't go, and you neglect my honored guests of the Great Song Dynasty." I'm really sorry, but in order to show my gratitude, I will hold a banquet at home tomorrow, and I hope you can come and cheer. ”

Ilt spoke awkward Chinese. He said with a thorn in his voice: "The economic envoy is very busy, we already know this, how dare we mind." Apparently he was still angry that Richie didn't meet them first.

md。 I'll just say a polite word, you still take it seriously. Richie sneered, "Prince Ilt can have such a belly. It's really embarrassing. ”

Ilt had not been learning Chinese for a long time, but he still didn't understand words such as belly and shame. After listening to the translation of the post official around him, he really thought that Li Qi was praising him, so he smiled, imitated the way of speaking of the Han people and said, "Win the award, pass the award." ”

Zhao Jingyan, who was hiding in the shadows, laughed secretly when she heard it, this person really didn't leave a trace of scolding, which was unguardable.

Muhammad on the side suddenly said: "The great name of the economic envoy, although the king is thousands of miles away, but he is also like thunder, I have always hoped to meet with the economist, and I can get the invitation of the economic envoy, that is our honor, tomorrow will be on time to make an appointment." "His Chinese is really many times better than Ilte, and he obviously comes to the Great Song Dynasty often. Although he also had a lot of opinions about Li Qi at this time, he had already inquired clearly, Zhao Huan was nominally in charge of this negotiation, but the key issues had to be agreed by Li Qi, so he did not reject Li Qi.

Li Qi smiled and said: "Don't dare to be, don't dare to be, everyone can come, then Li Qi is already a big face." ”

Ilte added: "We knew that the economic envoy was very busy, so we didn't invite the economic envoy, but we didn't expect the economic envoy to be so interested in the gambling game, this is our mistake." ”

Li Qi smiled slightly: "It's okay, it's okay, in fact, I just wanted to come and see, but I heard that you still have a corner, so I came to make up the number, and I can't neglect a few VIPs." ”

Ilte sighed and said arrogantly: "Listening to the words of the economic envoy, it seems that he is not very interested in the gambling game, is it because the money is too small." ”

Zhao Huan's face changed when he heard this, and he seemed to think that Ilte was a little too much.

At this time, Gao Yu, Li Bangyan and others also came over, and their faces were not very good-looking.

Li Qi also frowned secretly, but with a smile on his face, he secretly thought, Lao Tzu has endured it in every way, you are aggressive, you are too ignorant. Suddenly, he laughed, and said, "It's surprising that Mr. Ilt and I met for the first time and knew each other so well. ”

After hearing the interpreter's meaning, the corners of Ilte's mouth lifted and said, "Then I don't know how big the economic envoy wants to play?" ”

Litchie held out a finger in front of Ilte.

It's the middle finger.

Ilte didn't understand the posture, but felt a little awkward, and frowned slightly: "One hundred thousand? ”

Li Qi shook his head and said, "One hundred thousand, I'm too lazy to reach out and touch the cards, it's one million." ”

As soon as these words came out, those envoys from the Western Regions looked shocked, how much is a million yuan!

Ilt said unconvincedly: "Although the business of the economic envoy is very large, he is not so easy to gamble with a million yuan, right?" ”

Richie understated: "If Mr. Ilt is interested, we may raise the stakes to a million." ”

Ilte frowned, he could take out a million guan, but it didn't mean that he dared to use the money, because the money was used to buy goods from the Great Song Dynasty, if he lost, then he had to jump the Pacific Ocean, but he didn't believe that Li Qi could come up with a million guan. Momentary hesitation. And the entourage behind him, fearing that the young prince would be impulsive, would comply, muttered to him.

Gao Yu and the others looked at Ilte with a smile on their faces, thinking in their hearts, this is my Great Song Jingshi, just a few of you came here to show off your might, it is really humiliating yourself.

Muhammad knew the Great Song Dynasty very well, and he also knew that this Jingshi was bottomless, and God knows how much money there was! Although he didn't believe that Li Qi could come up with so much money alone, he had the richest court in the world behind him. Seeing that the atmosphere was a little embarrassing, he hurriedly came out to play a round and said with a smile: "We are just idle and bored, and we want to come and play, the two of us don't have to move the truth, so as not to hurt the harmony." By the way, economist, I heard that you invented this poker. ”

There is a way to reach out and not hit people with smiling faces, and Li Qi does not intend to be aggressive. Nodding and smiling: "Small talk, don't dare to be elegant, rare few people are very fond of this poker, Li Qi is really a little flattered." ”

Muhammad said: "The economic envoy is too modest. This poker is really fun and tight, I remember the first time I saw it in China, I couldn't let go of it, in your Central Plains words. It's a waste of sleep and food, and poker is very popular in our food market these days. ”

"Really? I really didn't expect that. ”

Ilte suddenly interjected again: "Since this poker was invented by the economic envoy, the economic envoy must be a poker master." ”

Li Qi shook his head and smiled: "I really don't dare to take this seriously." To be honest, I have no interest in it, the person who invented the brush is not necessarily the best at writing, even if he is wearing a long gown, he may be a woman, right? ”

Zhao Jingyan listened to him mock himself and scolded secretly, this guy was so hateful.

There was a burst of laughter, and the atmosphere eased a lot.

Since there was still a while before the gambling game began, Li Qi exchanged a few words with them, and he was ready to find something to eat and replenish some body, and the meeting must be a bitter battle, 50,000 yuan, enough to save a village, and he didn't lose easily!

Li Qi came to the dining table and put some pastries on the plate, and after a glance, he found that there were four bitter gourd faces sitting on the sofa inside, all of them expressionless, definitely the most bitter in it.

These four people are the four little boys.

It would be strange to have them on such occasions. Li Qi smiled, walked over, sat on the side of Hong Tianjiu, saw that his arrival did not cause a reaction, and was curious, and said, "Hey, what about you guys?" It can't be that I've been tired of acting lately, right? ”

Gao Yanei squinted, pouted and said, "What's so great, and he came to us to show off his might!" ”

Li Qi was stunned for a moment and said, "What do you mean?" ”

Gao Ya couldn't hide things in his heart, and said: "Li Qi, you might as well be honest, in the world, if you want to play, who is the opponent of our four little boys." ”

Li Qi was stunned for a while, shook his head and said, "This is really not true." "I thought, who has so much time for you, so much money to play.

Gao Yanei snorted: "Isn't this it, there is no reason for you to gamble, and you will not be allowed to go." ”

So these guys are here for this! Li Qi smiled: "Who won't let it, you can participate!" ”

Gao Yanei was annoyed: "My father." ”

Hong Tianjiu also pulled this head and said: "My father won't let me participate." ”

In the world, Brother Yu can stop him, this Brother Yu is really wise. Li Qi shrugged and said, "Then I can't help it." ”

Gao Yanei's eyes rolled and said: "Li Qi, you haven't gambled for a long time, your hands are a little rusty, and you will be humiliated when you go up, or let Ben Yanei appear on your behalf." You can rest assured, once you kill them, you will not leave a piece of armor. ”

Your mother was humiliated. Li Qi gritted his teeth and shook his head and smiled, "This is not good. ”

"If there's anything you can't do, you just pay for it."

"Uh, the money isn't mine!"

"Whose is that?"

"Captain's."

"My father, why is this, angry with me!"

Gao Yanei's eyes darkened when he heard this, his body was shaky, and he almost fainted.

Li Qi looked at his appearance, secretly laughed in his heart, and ate happily.

After a while, the game was about to begin, and the guests went upstairs, but saw a round table in the middle, and a number of chairs on the side.

Wait until the guests are seated. Zhao Huan, Ilte, Li Qi, and Muhammad also sat down around the round table in turn, and each of them had some chips in front of them, and they were piled high, with the smallest denomination being ten guan and the largest being one hundred.

Compared with such a large gambling book, the denomination of this chip is a little small, but Hong Bajin didn't expect that someone would gamble with tens of thousands of yuan, so he could only use it.

Since poker was just emerging at this time, and technology was like that, there wasn't much checking beforehand, and the dealer just asked the four participants to check the poker. You must know that this is not just a gamble between private individuals, but more of a political relationship, where does Hong Bajin dare to play tricks in it, if something happens, Brother Yu can't protect him.

After the inspection, the game officially begins.

After two rounds of dealing, Zhao Huan's card is a king with a heart, Ilte's is a king of diamonds, Muhammad's is an ace of spades, and Richie's is the smallest, and it is not an ordinary small, it is a diamond 2.

Wouldn't it, luck be so bad? When Li Qi saw this card, he didn't even have the mood to look at the hole cards.

"The ace of spades speaks!"

Muhammad didn't look at the hole cards, his eyes swept to the table, and then he took out a hundred and threw them in the middle, and said with a smile: "This first hand, I hope to please a good lottery." ”

Although Zhao Huan knows how to play, he rarely plays, after all, he is really not interested in the face, he looked at the hole cards, a smile appeared on his face, and he hurriedly threw it with a hundred yuan.

Ilt didn't look at the hole cards, threw a chip up, and said, "Follow." ”

Ilte and Saudi Arabia glanced at each other and smiled playfully.

It's over, it's over, this prince seems to be really a peerless good man, he can't even gamble, you smile so honestly, don't you just tell others that your hole card is the old K. Li Qi looked at the hole card, it was a club 7, and thought to himself, if I fold, then the prince will not have to fight one against two, let's take a look first, anyway, there is not much money. Quietly, he said, "Follow." ”

Gao Yanei looked annoyed, and said: "I said that Li Qi has been on the battlefield for a long time and is a lot unfamiliar, so he is so young, isn't he giving money." ”

Fan Shaobai said in a low voice: "Yanei, I don't dare to say anything else, but in terms of money, Li Qi will never waste a penny." ”

In the third round of cards, Muhammad is a club J, Zhao Huan is a spade queen, Ilte is a diamond nine, and Li Qi's luck is a back to home, which is a heart eight.

I can't bear to look at it!

Li Qi was so depressed that he was about to cry, he was too bullying. (To be continued)
