Chapter 204: Li Zhen Visits the Casino
Ye Cheng thought for a while and said, "My lord, I once said that I have an older brother. After talking to Mrs. Gulina's butler Blair about the factory today, a casino owner who claimed to be the fourth master of Tong came to Blair and said that Blair's employees had lost 1,000 taels of silver in the casino, and he wanted Blair to ransom people with money. This person is my indisputable eldest brother Ye Chengde. Now the eldest brother is imprisoned in the Dali casino, please ask the big boss to save him. ”
Li Zhen said: "If you want to borrow a thousand taels of silver, do you want to redeem Ye Chengde?" ”
When Ye Cheng heard this, his eyes gradually turned red, and he couldn't help nodding and said, "My brother was caught by the fourth master, and he took out a thousand taels of silver today." If it were past today, my brother would have a finger cut off. My savings are only a few dozen taels of silver, and I really can't make up such a lot of money, so I can only borrow money from adults. ”
Li Zhen asked jokingly: "The owner of a casino is stumped for you, didn't you tell him that you are from Daotai Mansion?" ”
Ye Cheng shook his head and said, "No!" ”
Li Zhen did not have joy or anger on his face, but he recognized Ye Chengcheng in his heart. It's just that Ye Cheng doesn't do things in his name, which is worthy of recognition. Li Zhen's mind changed for a moment, and he said: "Ye Chengde is just a small clerk, even if he has a little money, it is impossible to lose a thousand taels of silver. This matter must have been deliberately tricked by Tong Si. ”
Ye Cheng said with deep understanding: "My lord is wise! ”
However, Li Zhen was silent again.
Ye Cheng couldn't figure out Li Zhen's thoughts, so he could only look at Li Zhen with blank eyes.
Even if Li Zhen didn't help, it would be good to borrow a thousand taels of silver.
After being silent for a long time, Li Zhencai said: "Since Tong Si likes to play with people, we will treat them in the same way as others." It's not logical to also play with this fourth master and rescue Ye Chengde. ”
Ye Cheng was overjoyed and asked, "What are you going to do?" ”
Li Zhen rolled up his sleeves and said, "Of course, I did it myself, but I still have to make a little preparation." ”
Ye Cheng said sincerely: "Please command!" ”
Li Zhen made a move, waited for Ye Chengxin to get closer, and whispered something, Ye Chengxin turned around and left. Li Zhen also walked out of the study, walked towards the backyard, and changed into a satin-faced robe with a high texture. On weekdays, Li Zhen wears mostly simple and light clothes, and he doesn't like to dress up in robes and horse coats.
This time he was going to Dali Casino, Li Zhen couldn't dress shabby, otherwise he wouldn't be able to achieve the effect. When Li Zhen walked to the hall, Ye Chengxin also came and said, "My lord, it's all ready." ”
Li Zhen said: "By the way, after going to Dali Casino, don't call adult, call the owner, understand?" ”
"Understood!"
Ye Cheng smiled heartily, and walked briskly when he followed Li Zhen.
After the two of them left Daotaifu, they took a carriage to the east of the city and came to the Dali Casino.
At the door of the casino, countless people came in and out, coming and going, and the people who entered the door all had hopeful looks on their faces, and there was vague excitement in their eyes, all thinking of making a lot of money in the casino. However, 99% of the people who went out were bitter-faced, looking like their father and mother were dead, and only one or two people could leave with a smile on their faces.
"Let's go, let's make a windfall too!"
Li Zhen waved his sleeves and strode towards the casino.
Ye Chengxin followed closely behind, but there was still a little nervousness in his heart.
"Big, big,......, small, small......"
"Lao Tzu is small, this time it must be small. Damn, they've already opened ten big ones in a row, if this one wasn't small, Lao Tzu would find a piece of tofu and kill him. ”
……
Inside the casino, it was crowded and noisy.
Li Zhen took Ye Chengxin into the casino, and all kinds of gamblers could be seen everywhere. Some people even sweat bare-chested gambling pai gow, and some cry and pray for the size of the dice gambling, which is chaotic. Li Zhen came to the place where the dice were thrown, but saw that the person sitting in the village was already shaking the dice, and shouted in his mouth: "Down, hurry up and bet, buy big and open big, buy small and open small, buy and leave!" ”
"One thousand taels, buy small!"
Li Zhen shouted suddenly, and Ye Chengxin immediately took out a stack of silver tickets from his arms, and then threw down a thousand taels on the table.
This time, the gamblers around him stopped and looked at Li Zhen in unison.
Li Zhen looked as usual, took a stool over, sat down with a golden knife, and then looked at the dealer who was also stunned, and said lightly: "I have already placed a bet, let's open." ”
"Okay! Is there anything else to go down?? Is there anything else to order? Buy big and open big, buy small and open small, open ~~! ”
The stunned people around also reacted and hurriedly followed to place bets.
After making sure that everyone had bet, the dealer slowly opened the dice cup. In an instant, one, two, and three points appeared in the dice cup, which was obviously small. The dealer looked annoyed and seemed to be very distressed, but said with a smile in his mouth: "Childe, you are really lucky, you won a thousand taels as soon as you came!" ”
Li Zhen sneered in his heart, the good luck of bullshit was clearly deliberate by the dealer.
The reason is naturally that the dealer saw a stack of silver tickets in Ye Chengxin's hand and planned to put a long line to catch a big fish, so he gave Li Zhen a little sweetness. This kind of old-fashioned method, Li Zhen has long been surprised.
However, Li Zhen didn't want to expose this old-fashioned trick.
Not only that, Li Zhen took all the silver tickets from Ye Chengxin's hand and slapped them on the table with a bang.
The amount of each silver ticket is one thousand taels, and a stack of silver tickets is dozens of them. This number simply makes the bookmaker red-eyed. Not only that, but the people around him also secretly swallowed their spit, wondering in their hearts where this rich boy came from? Li Zhen glanced at the dealer, grabbed the silver ticket and shook it, and said, "It's not fun to make a small fuss, bring your boss here." ”
"Okay!"
The dealer made a move, called a miscellaneous man, and whispered a few words.
After the miscellaneous left, the dealer looked at Li Zhen again and said with a smile: "Childe, you come here, what you want is a happy picture, which must make you happy." When the dealer spoke, his eyes did not leave the silver ticket in Li Zhen's hand, and even showed greedy eyes, and he was eager to immediately take the silver bill in Li Zhen's hand as his own.
Ye Chengxin stood aside, and suddenly felt a little worried in his heart.
This time, can you win?
Ye Chengxin and Li Zhen have not been in contact with each other for much time, and they don't know Li Zhen.
Not long after, the owner of Dali Casino, Tong Siye, walked out, and after he saw Ye Chengxin, his eyes fell on Li Zhen again, and when he saw Li Zhen's dress, he obviously looked like a son. Ye Chengxin stood next to Li Zhen in a proper manner, and he had already vaguely guessed in his heart that Li Zhen was Ye Chengxin's owner.
Fourth Master Tong stared at Ye Chengxin and asked with a smile, "Ye Chengxin, are you ready for a thousand taels of silver?" “
Li Zhen answered: "Isn't it just a thousand taels of silver? Mere trifle! ”
After that, Li Zhen threw over the 1,000 taels of silver tickets he had just won and said, "Let the people go, I'll bet with you." The fourth master's eyes were bright, the corners of his mouth hooked up a smile, and he said simply: "Come on, let Ye Chengde go, I'll make a few bets with this son to see whose luck is better." ”
The words fell, and two burly men walked out with Ye Chengde in their arms.
