The bell is used to inform all gamblers that the lottery is about to be drawn, the bell rings three times to stop betting, and the incense is the idea that Simao came up with, saying that worshipping the god of flowers can increase the sense of ceremony, in order to promote justice and solemnity, to win the trust of gamblers.
Xu Sandao nodded, the deacon was just about to order his subordinates to ring the bell, suddenly, a group of people poured in outside the color shed, the first was an old man, dressed in a purple robe, wearing a diagonal cardigan coat, holding the snow-white cuffs high, his thumb upturned, a dark green big wrench shining with oil, between the opening and closing of the palm, a diamond inlaid with the wrench finger looming, radiant, that bearing is extraordinary. He was followed by several maids and servants, all of whom were neatly dressed, spirited, respectful, and in strict formation.
Xu Sandao greeted him with a smile on his face, and was about to say hello to the old man, but the old man ignored him, flashed to the side, and respectfully supported an old woman from behind, saying: "Old lady, please."
Xu Sandao secretly screamed a fluke, almost worshiped the wrong god, seeing that the old man's graceful bearing seemed to be a righteous master, but he didn't expect that he was just a foreman who played the front station, and the old woman's style was too big. Therefore, Xu Sandao was even more concerned, and looked at this old woman carefully, wanting to see who was sacred.
The old woman's clothes are very plain, her head is full of pearls and emeralds, just a sandalwood hairpin, but her kind expression is full of momentum that is not angry and mighty, she does not show her feet, her skirt is slightly swinging, and she floats over like a cloud, and she speaks in an official dialect and opens her mouth without hurrying: "Boss, it's too late to bet now, right?" ”
Xu Sandao was stunned by the aura of this old woman, was stunned for a moment, and involuntarily bent his waist and said respectfully: "It's time, it's time, old lady, please come inside, it's noisy outside, don't disturb your purity." ”
The old woman walked inside, and without looking back, she instructed the old man: "Butler, come back today, let's have a little fun, first place five thousand silver, you can choose which one to do." After saying this, she looked at Xu Sandao who was standing aside, smiled and said: "Boss, I haven't seen the old body of this flower club, I listen to it fresh, I will make a special trip to relieve my boredom today, and I will ask you to tell the old body about it." ”
The old woman's tone was very gentle, with the meaning of discussion, but with a magic that could not be refused, Xu Sandao hurriedly agreed, and unconsciously turned into a pug: "Hey, you sit in the room, I'll give you a good chat....."
The deacon of the flower factory was very old-fashioned, and he saw the opportunity very quickly, so he immediately posted it, settled the old lady and sat down, served tea, and took advantage of Xu Sandao and the old lady's conversation, and the deacon invited the housekeeper to the side hall next door in the name of betting and invoicing, and politely greeted him. Open the casino ushered in, in all directions, the deacon has a delicate heart, employed by the owner, is to take over the fortune for the owner to prevent disasters, so, the eyes should be poisonous, the mouth should be skillful, especially when you see a big customer or a customer with a big background, you must be careful to deal with it, find out the details of the other party, otherwise, in case you encounter someone who can't afford to offend, it is to find trouble for the owner.
Although the housekeeper was big, his tone was polite and not pretentious, and the deacon knew the identity of the other party four or five points with a cup of tea. The old lady's husband's family name is Ma, and the housekeeper's surname is also Ma, and she is the old housekeeper in the house and the slave of the family's children. This old lady is the most good gambler, just because the female flow in and out of the casino is inconvenient, so usually just in the house and the younger generations and friends with the ladies to play horse tags, push pai gow, one day listen to people talk about in the mouth of the flower will play is very fresh, and men and women, old and young can go, the location is less than five miles away from the mouth of the desert island, where the scenery is good, or a good place to go out, eat and play are readily available, so I moved the idea, today is a special trip to relax.
Talking about this, Steward Ma didn't even envelope the bag, circled a note in front of the deacon, and casually threw a silver ticket of 5,000 taels, as if he was throwing not money, but a piece of paper. The deacon hurriedly took the silver ticket, instructed the bookkeeper to check the ticket and collect the note, and then asked the man to wait carefully, and hurried out of the compartment.
"Simao, Simao......." The deacon found Simao, who was napping on a chaise longue in an uninhabited corner behind the color shed, and woke him up with a push.
"Hey, what are you doing, I just fell asleep ......" Simao's face was full of reluctance.
The deacon hurriedly whispered a few words to Simao, Simao raised his eyebrows slightly, and said in a low voice: "Don't worry, today is the Yuebao Gate, and she can't hit." ”
The chief deacon breathed a sigh of relief and said in a low voice: "That's good, it scared me, if this old lady hits today, the odds are thirty times, our flower factory doesn't have such a silver today, and she will immediately make a fool of it, fortunately, she uses an open ticket, and she doesn't need to seal it secretly, otherwise I really have a drum in my heart." ”
After three bells, worship the god of flowers, the deacon personally lowered the color tube, in front of everyone after checking the seal, by the four mao to dismantle the color tube, as the master of the flower factory, which door to put in advance, the scene of the color tube is the work of four mao. The master in the casino is worth the money here, the selection of the lottery category is not arbitrary, that is actually to gamble with a group of people, according to the size of the handicap, the number of times the door is opened to consider which one to open next, the most important thing is not to let others guess the master's mind, feel the law. You must know that there are many hidden dragons and crouching tigers in the casino, who are professional gamblers who make a living from gambling and devote themselves to pondering the dealer's house.
As for why the master personally opened the lottery tube, it is simpler, at the critical moment, it is necessary to rely on the master master to cheat, steal the beam and change the pillar to cheat, so, this crucial trick can not be faked to others, including the owner of the casino can not be substituted, this is also the unwritten rule in the casino.
The color tube is opened, as usual to face the whole field around the field to show the lottery ticket in the color tube, immediately there will be bursts of cheers and sighs, but as usual is less cheers, more sighs, the field will immediately be a rush to start the prize, the joy of the smile, not in the shouting of bad luck, but everyone is still waiting for the dispersal, because after the prize, followed by the tube to close the note, accept tomorrow's betting, so another round of you noisy I shouted loudly, there is bound to be a new round of busy beginning.
Xu Sandao personally sent Mrs. Ma and her party out of the flower factory, until the group got on the carriage and went away. The deacon followed quietly, whispered a few words in front of Xu Sandao, Xu Sandao nodded, and his cold eyes were like wolves: "Such a big customer, it should be easy to inquire, you send a clever person to check carefully, if it is an official, you have to be careful, let's open a casino, don't provoke the government, but if she is only rich and not expensive, hehe....... then it will be easy to do, the fat sent to the door, we won't even leave her the bone scum." ”
