Chapter 522: The Way of a Gentleman (Three Watches)
It was already dawn when Li Hongyu left the casino, stretching lazily as he walked, and before he knew it, he had been in the casino all night. Heavenly Voices." ⒉
Zhang Cheng and Gu Hai led a group of big men to follow silently, with puzzled looks on their faces, no one understood why Li Hongyu wanted to give up the two hole cards, you must know that this is related to more than 100,000 taels of silver.
"Sir, why didn't you open the cards just now?"
Finally, Zhang Cheng couldn't hold back the doubts in his heart anymore, and walked forward quickly and bowed down and asked, which is also the question that everyone is most concerned about at present.
"Small gambling is pleasant, big gambling hurts the body, although the money from gambling is easy to come by, but it is not the right way, it is not worth showing off, so as not to mislead people's children."
Li Hongyu smiled slightly when he heard this, he had already prepared, so he replied in an orderly manner, "The god of luck does not always favor a person, so if you want to succeed, you still have to move forward step by step in a down-to-earth manner, this is the foundation of people!" ”
"As the saying goes, a gentleman loves money and takes it in a good way, so that he can sleep peacefully at night."
As he spoke, Li Hongyu stopped, turned around and glanced at Zhang Cheng, Gu Hai and the others who followed him, and said in a deep voice, "God rewards hard work, God is fair, as long as you are willing to work hard, then there will always be a path that suits you." ”
"Sir is a talented gentleman, and we will be taught." Zhang Cheng was stunned when he heard this, and finally understood Li Hongyu's intentions, and couldn't help but feel a burst of regret in his heart, and then bowed to Li Hongyu and said.
"I'll be taught!" Gu Hai and the others bowed to Li Hongyu, no matter what, Li Hongyu's noble sentiment of not being moved by money is still worthy of everyone's admiration.
As for the righteous Ling Ran truth that Li Hongyu said, Zhang Cheng, Gu Hai and the others just heard it, and their left ear went in and out of their right ear, after all, they were not Li Hongyu, where was Li Hongyu's means of making a living?
Li Hongyu knew the thoughts of Zhang Cheng and Gu Hai and others, but he didn't mind, no matter how he said that he had just come into contact with everyone, there was still a long way to go in the future, which was enough for him to transform Zhang Cheng and Gu Hai and others to realize his remarks.
Therefore, Li Hongyu smiled slightly and walked away, ready to go home and sleep well, tonight's matter in the casino will definitely spread all over the chicken coop port overnight to become famous in Xiaoliuqiu, whether it is admiration or ridicule, he can be regarded as famous in Xiaoliuqiu.
For the gambling money worth more than 100,000 taels on the gambling table, Li Hongyu didn't have the heart to get it from the beginning, and he didn't need that money now, so it might as well be used to enhance his reputation.
Besides, the behind-the-scenes boss of the casino is Shi Hu, one of the five major forces in Xiaoliuqiu, and Li Hongyu has no need to provoke Shi Hu if he wants to act with peace of mind in Xiaoliuqiu.
This can be regarded as a favor for Shi Hu, and the right to pay the "protection fee", presumably Shi Hu will not embarrass him in the future, otherwise he will be ridiculed.
The next day, when Li Hongyu was still asleep, the "earth-shattering gamble" in the casino spread like a whirlwind throughout the entire Jilong Port, and the gambling money of more than 100,000 taels had broken the famine of Xiaoliuqiu, and no one had ever gambled like this.
What is even more shocking to people is that Li Hongyu folded his cards and gave away more than 100,000 taels of silver in his hand when he was holding the victory, which is really incredible.
Therefore, in all kinds of discussions, Li Hongyu's name gradually spread all over Xiaoliuqiu Island, some people say that he is high-spirited and disdainful of gambling ill-gotten money, and some people say that he is so stupid that he doesn't eat the fat meat on his mouth, and everyone has different opinions, which has become a great miracle on the island.
At this moment, in the reception hall of a luxurious mansion in Joncoop Harbor.
"Brother Tiger, this is how things happened, I didn't expect that Mr. Zhao to give up the game."
The casino shopkeeper looked embarrassed and said to a bald middle-aged man sitting in the upper part of the hall with a teacup and tea, this bald middle-aged man is Shi Hu, who is as famous as Liu Dahai.
"Interesting!"
Shi Hu put down the teacup in his hand when he heard this, a look of surprise appeared on his face, although he had rich experience, he didn't expect Li Hongyu to fold at the last moment, otherwise he would not only lose casinos and other industries, but also become the target of ridicule from outsiders.
"Brother Tiger, now that the other party has drawn the line, how should we pick it up?"
The casino shopkeeper looked at Shi Hu depressedly and asked, although he won the big gamble last night without a fight, but because Li Hongyu took the initiative to give in, he always felt like a fish in his throat, uncomfortable, and felt that the gambling money was hot.
"This person has high gambling skills, but fortunately he is a gentleman who acts upright."
Shi Hu pondered for a while and then looked at the casino shopkeeper, "Come and don't be rude, since he didn't want our casino, then we can't accept the restaurant he fancies!" ”
"Brother Tiger, do you mean to give him the restaurant?" The casino shopkeeper asked with some surprise when he heard this, he didn't expect Shi Hu to be so generous, the location of that restaurant is very good, and the business is good every day.
"Since he is so generous, then I can't be so stingy, it's just a restaurant, if I can end this matter, it's quite worthwhile, lest someone say I'm not righteous!"
Shi Hu frowned slightly, then frowned and said, "Liu Dahai's luck is really good, he actually invited such a powerful scholar, let's be careful in the future." ”
"You instruct us to go down and let our people stay away from that Mr. Liu and the private school, this person dares to come to Xiaoliuqiu to show that he is not an idle person, now is an eventful season, our main enemy is the imperial court, and it is better to be harmonious internally."
Saying that, Shi Hu said to the casino shopkeeper in a deep voice, he is not afraid of Liu Dahai, the power of the two is equal, and no one can swallow anyone, what worries him is the rising Daming Water Division, once the Water Division becomes an army, then Xiaoliuqiu will become unsafe.
Don't look at Shi Hu's image of a reckless man with a big grin, in fact, his mind is delicate and very scheming, otherwise he would not stand out from many sea forces, the kind of reckless man who only knows how to do things is difficult to succeed in this kind of fierce competition, and sooner or later he will die.
"What Brother Tiger said is very true, I will do it now."
The casino shopkeeper nodded again and again when he heard this, and then bowed down to leave, secretly relieved in his heart, it seems that Shi Hu has passed this level, and this is also thanks to Li Hongyu's mercy, otherwise he would not be able to get out of this mansion today.
"Mr. Zhao!" After the casino shopkeeper left, Shi Hu's brows furrowed slightly, and three words slowly spit out from his mouth.
This new teacher is really extraordinary, just came to the chicken coop port and did two eye-catching big things one after another, first opened a free private school, and then folded cards in the casino, his behavior is really unexpected, it seems that he should pay attention to this person in the future.
"Sir, you went to the casino last night?"
Li Hongyu slept until noon, and as soon as he finished washing, Youlan and Liu Bihua rushed over, stared at him with interest and asked.
Now the whole chicken coop port is rumoring that the gamble with an unexpected ending in the casino yesterday would have wanted to confirm it to him if it weren't for Li Hongyu making up for sleep.
"Yesterday I went to play a few Western flower cards."
Li Hongyu yawned and said lazily, "It's really a good thing that doesn't go out, and bad things spread thousands of miles, so quickly this matter spread." ”
"You really didn't ask for the bet of more than 200,000 taels of silver?" At this time, Liu Bihua looked at Li Hongyu with a concerned expression and asked.
"More than 200,000 taels?"
Li Hongyu couldn't help but laugh dumbly when he heard this, shook his head and said, "It's just 110,000 taels, it seems that the rumors in the bazaar are really not credible!" ”
Hearing the word "but", Youlan and Liu Bihua couldn't help but glance at each other in surprise, the property of 110,000 taels of silver is a huge amount of money, and Li Hongyu actually used "but" to describe it, this vision is a little too high.
How did the two know that Li Hongyu collected millions of taels of silver in overseas trade franchise fees in Yangzhou the year before last, so he was extremely indifferent in the face of these hundreds of thousands of taels of silver.
"What I mean is that a gentleman loves money and takes it in a good way, and gambling is a sideline thing, even if you have more money, you can't ask for it." Seeing that Youlan and Liu Bihua's expressions were a little delicate, Li Hongyu opened his mouth to explain.
"I see."
Youlan and Liu Bihua suddenly realized when they heard this, it turned out that Li Hongyu felt that the money from gambling was not right, so they gave up the more than 100,000 taels of silver, and Li Hongyu's arrogant and uninhibited personality could really do such an amazing thing.
"Sir, the boss of the casino sent someone to send the contract of the restaurant, in order to support us to run a private school, from today onwards the restaurant will be owned by the private school, the restaurant shopkeeper and a few chefs will stay for half a year, and then leave when the restaurant business is straightened out."
At this moment, Zhang Cheng walked into the door quickly, put a piece of paper on the table in front of Li Hongyu, and said with a happy expression.
Boss Shi is the casino shopkeeper who gambled with Li Hongyu yesterday, he is Shi Hu's cousin, and naturally follows Shi Hu's surname "Shi", otherwise how could he become Shi Hu's henchman and be entrusted with important tasks, relatives and township parties are the two most important interpersonal relationships in ancient society.
Since Li Hongyu can't even look down on more than 100,000 taels of silver, he naturally won't care about a small restaurant, so the casino shopkeeper thought of a reason that was not easy to be rejected by Li Hongyu, and gave the restaurant to Li Hongyu in the name of giving it to a private school, so that Li Hongyu was not easy to refuse.
"Since Boss Shi has a heart, then I will thank him on behalf of the children." Li Hongyu naturally knew the mind of the casino shopkeeper, and since he proposed to ask for a restaurant last night, he naturally had his intentions, so he did not shirk it, and accepted the contract with a smile.
There is no government management in Jilong Port, so naturally there is no house deed and land deed, and they use contracts for real estate and real estate transactions between them, that is, written documents.
"Sir, what do you want to do in the restaurant?" Youlan had already heard about Li Hongyu's proposal to use the restaurant to make a draw with the casino owner last night, and when she saw that the casino sent the restaurant today, she couldn't help but ask curiously.
"As the saying goes, if you want to open this private school, you can't always rely on your father's relief, you have to have your own industry to support it."
Li Hongyu glanced at the contract and handed it to Youlan for her to put away, and then said solemnly, "The location of that restaurant is very good, and the chef who stir-fries is also good, and the money earned in a year is enough for the expenses of a private school." ”
"What a bother, sir!" Youlan was slightly stunned when she heard this, she didn't expect Li Hongyu to worry so much about the private school, and couldn't help but say with admiration, if you were someone else, you would have already taken the restaurant as your own.
"If you don't do it in your position, you can't do it, and since it's already started, then I hope that the private school can continue to open."
Li Hongyu smiled disapprovingly, this is his heartfelt words, the country is strong when the youth is strong, and he hopes that the children in Jilong Port can be educated and serve the country when they grow up.
Youlan's eyes couldn't help but light up when she heard this, and her gaze at Li Hongyu softened a lot again, Li Hongyu was ambitious, and she was very happy to help Li Hongyu teach children in the private school.
Liu Bihua on the side noticed Youlan's eyes looking at Li Hongyu with tenderness like water, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help revealing a hint of an imperceptible smile.
As a woman, Liu Bihua naturally knows what this kind of gentle eyes means, it seems that Youlan's marriage has been settled, and the family no longer has to worry about her lifelong happiness, Li Hongyu is obviously a man worthy of trust!
