Chapter 867: I can't help the wolf if I can't bear the child
Shangguan Wan'er revealed her martial arts, and when she arrived, she startled the four masters of Ancient Zhai, and he immediately realized that the two people in front of him were not easy to mess with at all, not only if they offended, they might be killed by the people in front of them, maybe the business would not succeed, and they would be questioned by King Chong and Zhou Cheng when they went back.

"Two, go inside first, the beauty is ready for you! As for what kind of fun Xie Liuye wants to have, naturally someone will take care of it, Mrs. Xu, you are responsible for bringing the two distinguished guests inside......" The fourth master wiped a cold sweat and said to the old woman who had been following Ji Ning and Shangguan Wan'er before.
The old woman looked a little respectful, and walked over and said, "Sixth Master Xie, please come here, it's our negligence, today's expenses in the eternal fast, just record it in our account!" ā
"You're pretty good at doing things!" Shangguan Wan'er won't care too much, because according to what she said, Xie Lao Liu came to the capital to do horse business with King Chong, and now that the people of Gu Zhai have apologized, she will not throw her sleeves and leave.
Her real purpose is also to investigate the situation of the master, which is related to the altar, while Ji Ning is to investigate Chongwang and Zhou Cheng.
In a sense, Ji Ning and Shangguan Wan'er's goals are actually the same.
ā¦ā¦
ā¦ā¦
Ji Ning and Shangguan Wan'er, under the leadership of Mrs. Xu, arrived in the VIP hall of Eternal Zhai.
This VIP hall is no longer underground, but on the second floor above ground, and it seems to be surrounded by deep mansions, as for where he is, Ji Ning still can't make an intuitive judgment.
"Looks like we've gotten past the first hurdle!" Shangguan Wan'er said, "If nothing else, Zhou Cheng should come to see us tonight!" ā
In the banquet room, there are gorgeous decorations, this should be a place for drinking and having fun, and the backyard can faintly hear the sound of staggering, obviously there are such a group of "distinguished guests" in the backyard to enjoy.
After a while, Mrs. Xu walked in and saluted the two of them: "Sixth master, the back has been arranged, the beauty will come in within half an hour, and will put the fragrant soup for you to bathe, and there will be some pastimes here, if you want to try your luck, you can go directly to the backyard, and the slave family will guide you the way!" ā
"So what are you waiting for?" Shangguan Wan'er said, "Let's go over and have a look!" We're a good hand in gambling, don't just lose your money......"
"Where do you dare, besides, try your luck here, you have to bet against gamblers, and we just charge a little benefit fee!"
Mrs. Xu said, and took Ji Ning and Shangguan Wan'er out of the hall, in Ji Ning's opinion, the people of Eternal Zhai are very careful, the reason why they do this is actually to divert the target, so that Ji Ning is not familiar with the environment of Ancient Zhai, only in this way can he be eaten.
It wasn't until I got to the backyard that I realized that this was really a gold cave.
There were more than a dozen male gamblers inside, each with one to three or four beautiful women in their arms, who were at a large gambling table, drinking and gambling at the same time, and each of them had a large amount of gold and silver in front of them, and they were all cash to gamble, and they would not use silver to redeem tickets at all.
Mrs. Xu said: "The sixth master may not know that in our eternal Zhai, you need to directly exchange chips to try your luck, and the silver ticket of 10,000 taels can only be exchanged for 9,500 taels each time...... These five hundred taels are actually a small amount of work...... Also, if it is in gambling, there will be a small rake, for example, the dice are leopards or ties, this silver...... It's up to us to ...... ancient fast."
Ji Ning had heard a lot of gambling rules before, but with gambling rules like Eternal Zhai, it was almost like robbery.
In this kind of gambling, Gengu Zhai almost only provides manpower and venues, as well as tools, and has to take more than two percent, almost four or five bets, and if you win all, you will also lose a handful of silver, and gamblers here are almost no winners.
But Ji Ning can't show cowardice, after all, he is now Xie Liuye, and some are silver.
"Fair!" Shangguan Wan'er said, "Here, there is wine, food, and beauty, and such a good enjoyment, it is also appropriate to give you some silver, I don't know when the beauty of our family can be sent over, and the family must be accompanied by a beauty here!" ā
At this meeting, Guan Wan'er was already giving Ji Ning a problem.
"It's almost there, in fact, it's better to wait for the sixth master to return to the room and enjoy it!" Mrs. Xu said with a smile.
As he was talking, a game was opened on the big table, and everyone had a dice cup in hand, each with six dice in it, and directly began to compare the size, that is, the largest number for each person may be thirty-six, and the smallest is six, and now the comparison is whose number is bigger, who wins, and the table full of silver is his.
This table of gambling alone has as much as five or six hundred taels of silver, which is already a very big bet on the market, after all, hundreds of games can be gambled out in one night.
"Sixth Master, let's go down and try your luck?" Mrs. Xu couldn't wait to ask.
Obviously, Ji Ning is gambling here, she has a commission, and now the four masters have explained that if they want to record Ji Ning's account in Gengu Zhai, they will already entertain Ji Ning for free, and if they don't make Ji Ning from gambling, this time Gengu Zhai will lose a sum of money on Ji Ning, which is her sorrow, because it is likely that she will bear part of the loss.
Shangguan Wan'er said: "There is no need for this game, we will redeem the silver first, and then we will come to five thousand taels ......first."
Shangguan Wan'er's silver exchange ticket was originally a half-truth, and she was afraid of being exposed, so she could only exchange it for five thousand taels of real money and silver first.
When Mrs. Xu heard this, although there was still a certain gap with the number in her mind, she was also very happy, five thousand taels, just to collect the cost of work, she would directly make two hundred and fifty taels, which is not counting the commission in the gambling game later.
Suddenly, Ji Ning stretched out his hand, meaning not to let Shangguan Wan'er come to exchange, just when Mrs. Xu was a little nervous, Ji Ning took out a stack of silver from her arms to redeem the tickets, just took out two of them, and handed them to Shangguan Wan'er, Shangguan Wan'er looked dizzy after taking them, these two silver tickets are 20,000 taels, plus her 5,000 taels, it is directly 25,000 taels.
"We seem to want to try our luck, you just go and redeem it!" Shangguan Wan'er said.
Mrs. Xu smiled even more, now that Ji Ning has shown a lot of money, she doesn't believe that Ji Ning is from the government, after all, it is impossible for people in the government to take out so much silver as gambling money at one time.
Mrs. Xu was excited, and Shangguan Wan'er was a little dissatisfied: "You are very generous!" ā
"Of course!" Ji Ning said naturally, "I can't bear the child to trap the wolf, I'm here to investigate now, if it seems to be a child, how can others believe my identity?" ā
