Chapter Fifty-Four: Useless is a Scholar

The dealer at this table is exactly the dealer who reported to the shopkeeper Hu just now, and there are many gamblers at this table, which has become the most lively place in the entire gambling house. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

"Come on, come on, bet fast, buy and leave!" The dealer skillfully shakes the dice cup, and from time to time makes a joke with familiar gamblers, which does not prevent him from killing more and losing less, and in a moment there are hundreds of taels of silver piled up in front of him.

Zhang Bao'er watched for a long time, and finally bet five coins of silver, which was all the silver on him.

This table is a bet on the size, and the rules are simple and clear.

When Zhang Baoer won the first hand, Shopkeeper Hu saw that he was not simple.

After Zhang Baoer won six in a row in one go, Shopkeeper Hu's eyes had already narrowed.

Shopkeeper Hu would never believe that a person would have such good luck, but to say that this kid is out of the thousands, it is unlikely! The gambling equipment is from the gambling house, and the dealer is the person from the gambling house, this kid hasn't even touched the gambling equipment, how to get out of the thousand?

After Zhang Baoer left, the dealer came to the shopkeeper Hu's house again.

"Do you see that?" Shopkeeper Hu asked.

The dealer shook his head.

Not to mention the dealer, even the shopkeeper himself didn't see what method Zhang Baoer used to win.

"How much did he win?" Shopkeeper Hu asked again.

"Twenty-three taels of silver in total!"

"Only won twenty-three taels of silver?" Shopkeeper Hu said in surprise.

"That's right, it's twenty-three taels of silver!" The dealer affirmed.

Twenty-three taels of silver, for a big gambling house like Tiantong Casino, it is completely negligible. With Zhang Baoer's skills, it is okay to win a thousand taels of silver at will, but he only won twenty-three taels of silver and left, which made Shopkeeper Hu surprised.

"He's a master, and he's not greedy!" Shopkeeper Hu said to himself: "It seems that I will meet him!" ”

Thinking of this, the shopkeeper Hu instructed the dealer: "Next time he comes to the gambling house, please come directly to my house!" ”

……

"Bao'er, are you back?" Hou Jie saw Zhang Baoer as if he had seen a savior.

"Shocked, what's wrong?" Zhang Bao'er frowned and said, "Isn't it that Monk Yuanjue is coming to me again?" ”

"Not really!" Hou Jie shook his head: "It's Gongzi Cen looking for you!" ”

"Young Master Cen?" Zhang Baoer was stunned for a moment, and immediately reacted, Hou Jie was talking about Cen Shaobai, a pedantic scholar who lived in the same room with them.

"What did he ask me for?" Zhang Baoer said strangely.

"I don't know!" Hou Jie said mysteriously: "You can be careful, this Cen Gongzi may be sick again!" ”

"Sick again?" Zhang Bao'er frowned and said, "What's wrong?" ”

"Yesterday he sat stupidly, but this morning he came together, like a different person, not even idle for a moment, I don't know how many times he has been in and out, either humming a little song in his mouth, or talking to himself, not to mention how scary!"

As soon as Hou Jie's words fell, Cen Shaobai entered the room like a gust of wind, and as soon as he saw Zhang Bao'er, he pressed him on the chair in front of the desk and sat down: "Brother Zhang, come and see this!" ”

After that, Cen Shaobai handed a piece of paper to Zhang Baoer.

Zhang Bao'er was inexplicable, took it and looked at it carefully, and after reading it, he asked Cen Shaobai puzzled: "Deed?" What are you doing in the back garden of this temple? ”

"Come, you come with me!" Cen Shaobai pulled Zhang Baoer and walked out the door.

Zhang Bao'er followed Cen Shaobai to the garden behind the temple, Cen Shaobai pointed to his eyes and said, "Look, this is here, I have wrapped it all down." ”

Zhang Baoer looked around and saw that the garden was dozens of acres, but it was overgrown with weeds.

"Young Master Cen, what the hell is going on?"

Cen Shaobai said happily: "Speaking of which, I still have to thank you!" ”

"Thank me? What is my relationship with? Zhang Baoer was puzzled.

"Last night, you persuaded me to abandon Confucianism and go into business, and today I thought of a way to make money as soon as I got up......"

It turned out that after Zhang Bao'er left this morning, Cen Shaobai thought hard and meditated, and he didn't have a clue all morning, so he went out for a walk. I happened to see the monks in the temple having lunch, and there were only a few pitiful vegetable leaves on the plate.

Cen Shaobai frowned, and then asked an older monk why vegetables were grown in the field behind the temple, but there were still no vegetables to eat?

The monk told Cen Shaobai that the vegetable garden behind the temple was quite large, and Manchang'an could not find the second one, but it was all saline-alkali land, and the terrain was low, and it was flooded every year......

Cen Shaobai's eyes lit up when he heard this, so he found the deacon in the temple and said that he was willing to pay money to keep the back garden in the temple for a year.

When the deacon of the Temple of Mercy and Grace heard this, he was dumbfounded: This person who put a good sage book and didn't read it, but he wanted to cover a weed garden for a year, could it be that his head was kicked by a donkey?

Cen Shaobai recognized the truth, took a pen, ink, paper and inkstone, wrote a contract in black and white, pressed the handprint, and handed the silver to the deacon.

Zhang Bao'er asked puzzledly, "What are you doing with this vegetable garden?" ”

"To make money, of course! But I can't tell you yet! Speaking of this, Cen Shaobai asked very seriously: "Don't you believe that I have a business mind?" ”

"Believe! Believe! Zhang Bao'er nodded frequently like a chicken pecking rice.

Although she said so, Zhang Bao'er couldn't mention how depressed she was.

Last night, Zhang Baoer was worried that Cen Shaobai was stunned, so he talked nonsense in order to enlighten him, but who knew that Cen Shaobai took it seriously. It's good now, Cen Shaobai is not just stunned, he is simply crazy, he would actually cover such a large piece of wasteland, isn't this obviously a silver to be wasted?

This matter was caused by herself, Zhang Bao'er felt a little unbearable, so she asked: "Brother Cen, how much money did you spend on this back garden?" ”

"Twenty taels of silver!"

"Twenty taels of silver?" Zhang Baoer was speechless.

What a loser, Zhang Bao'er hated it in her heart, presumably this Cen Shaobai was stupid at reading, and he spent twenty taels of silver for such a broken garden. If it's three or two or five taels, it's just that, it's a big deal to dig it for him, and he can feel at ease, but when he thinks that it's twenty taels, Zhang Baoer can't help but feel a little painful.

Zhang Bao'er fumbled in his arms for a while before taking out a handful of broken silver, and he handed the broken silver to Cen Shaobai: "These silver are about twenty taels, for you!" ”

Cen Shaobai looked at Zhang Bao'er with a puzzled expression: "What are you doing?" ”

Zhang Baoer wanted to say that this silver was paid to Cen Shaobai by herself, and asked him to stop it, but she couldn't say anything anyway.

Zhang Bao'er pretended to be admired, and gave Cen Shaobai a thumbs up: "I believe in Brother Cen's talent for business, you can't make a fortune alone, these silver are considered to be my shares, don't forget to give me dividends when the time comes." ”

Hearing Zhang Bao'er's words, Cen Shaobai laughed and took the silver, and said with great ambition: "Brother Zhang, you still have a vision, I will accept this silver, and when I make a lot of money in the future, your benefits will definitely be indispensable." ”

Zhang Bao'er's face twitched constantly, and she made an excuse and left the incense room.

As soon as she went out, Zhang Baoer couldn't help but wail in disbelief: Oh my God, I finally won the twenty taels of silver.

At the same time, he secretly prayed in his heart: God, you have mercy on me, don't let me see this fool again in the future.
