Chapter Thirty-Nine: Yunfang Gambling House
I haven't been sick for a long time, and Hu Zhou almost forgot that he still has such a problem. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info fortunately, it doesn't last long.
When drinking Qingcang wine, Li Zhi was a little worried, and bluntly said that he tried some other methods through Zhu Qian or Xu Cheng? Hu Zhou smiled and said that it was much better than before, and he scolded others for being quacks before, and he thought about smashing his signboard, thinking that he had wronged him.
Lian Yue's spending of money is like dirt, and the context of several people before their deaths is clearer. For example, Qin Ba, no one saw him after three minutes, and according to Zhao Fei, who saw him at the end, Qin Ba had been not far from the lake. Then, assuming that Qin Ba was sunk to the bottom of the lake after his death, the scene of the crime should not be far from the lake.
Hu Zhou said that the reason why he was idle today was because the reward was stopped. said that it was suspected of buying evidence, which was a very official and one-sided reason, Hu Zhou didn't reason with anyone, so stop it, and the money spent was about the same.
The people soon knew the reason for the cancellation of the bounty, and Hu Zhou naturally had the credit for this. So those who took the money and those who didn't get it complained, and I told the truth, so how could it be evidence of bribery?
Such remarks and emotions have always been controlled within a controllable range, and there has been no big trouble.
There are five days left before the deadline to solve the case.
So even if you're idle, it's hard to really relax. The atmosphere inside Xiaguang Taobao was a little dull. Zheng Fusheng said before that there is an interesting place in the city, which is Xiaguang Taobao. He didn't expect that this was Hu Zhou's shop.
Hu Zhou told Zheng Fusheng that he was going to do something that was interesting at the beginning, but would be boring at the end.
Zheng Fusheng doesn't believe it, is there such a thing?
Therefore, including Li Zhimuqian and Liu Gan, five people appeared in the Yunfang gambling house.
I didn't see Sun Chao, it's not good or bad. The gambling house opened its doors to do business, and although it was obvious that they had some background, there was obviously no reason to turn them away. Just arrange for one of them to pretend to be a gambler and follow them all the time.
The first time he entered the gambling house, Zheng Fusheng was very excited. During the New Year's holidays, Hu Zhou has never fallen like mahjong, pai gow, and fraudulent golden flowers, but a big scene of people staring at the gambling table and panting like this has never been seen.
Although the sparrows in the Yunfang gambling house are small, they have all kinds of organs.
Hu Zhou chose a table with relatively simple rules and sat down. From nothing to get rich overnight, the excitement during this period cannot be described in words, Hu Zhou understands the mentality of these people who are addicted to it.
The gambling house sits in the bank, one loses two, and gamblers bet on the size of the bet at will, buy and leave. There are no leopards, which means that there is only one big or small.
There were stools in front of the table, but more people were reluctant to sit in order to shout hoarsely. As soon as Hu Zhou sat down, he saw a fat man next to him with a red face and rolled up his sleeves, and his forehead was covered with sweat, as if it was a decaying word with a capital letter.
"Brother Hu, should we bet big or small?" Zheng Fusheng asked cautiously.
"If he bets big, we bet small, and if he bets small, we bet big." Hu Zhou didn't deliberately lower his voice, so many people around him could hear it. The fat man who heard him say this glared at Hu Zhou fiercely.
Then the fat man bet big, and Zheng Fusheng decisively bet small.
Zhuang Kai.
One-two-four, seven-o'clock. Small.
One to two, Zheng Fusheng took twenty taels, and glanced at the fat man provocatively.
Chen Bingqiu felt that his lungs were about to explode, and he didn't bully people like this.
Then he gambled big. Zheng Fusheng bet on twenty taels.
Two-two-three, seven. Small.
Zheng Fusheng's ten taels have become forty taels. Chen Bingqiu lost two taels of silver in two rounds.
The dealer urges the bet. Chen Bingqiu refused to bet before Zheng Fusheng, Zheng Fusheng was a little helpless, Hu Zhou smiled and said it didn't matter, forty taels were bet small.
Chen Bingqiu gritted his teeth and bet two taels of silver.
One, four, four, nine. Small.
It's already eighty taels, and some gamblers have quietly followed Hu Zhou to place bets, looking like they have made a little profit.
At this time, Mu Qian whispered a few words in Hu Zhou's ear, which roughly meant that the fat man in front of him was Tuo. Hu Zhou nodded, indicating that it was okay.
Chen Bingqiu bet all the remaining five taels of silver in front of him on the big one. Then he glared at Hu Zhou and Zheng Fusheng menacingly, what does that mean, come, continue!
The dealer is urging again.
Hu Zhou's expression was flat, but he obviously had no intention of betting. The dealer shook the color cup and frowned quietly. It's just that he doesn't bet, and there are still a lot of people who bet small.
Four, four, five, thirteen. Big. The crowd was in an uproar.
One more round.
Chen Bingqiu won back all the losses before, no longer using small to make a big bet, and betting a small one or two silvers. Hu Zhou still didn't bet. There are those who do not believe in evil and bet greatly.
One, two, five, eight. Small.
Luck seems to have returned, Chen Bingqiu looked at Hu Zhou and Zheng Fusheng with disdain, and Zheng Fu was angry. Hu Zhou glanced at Li Zhi, who nodded at him.
Hu Zhou raised his head, looked at the dealer who shook the dice and said gently: "This is too slow, what is the limit for a game?" ”
Seeing him enter the game, the dealer said casually: "Five hundred taels." ”
So at the beginning of the game, Chen Bingqiu bet a tael of silver, and Hu Zhou bet a small amount of five hundred taels of silver.
Five hundred taels! Everyone gasped, and even beckoned the gamblers at the next table to watch this unique scene. In between, everyone bet on the big one, and only Hu Zhou was a lonely silver ticket of five hundred taels denomination.
The dealer's eyes flashed with a hint of imperceptible ruthlessness.
Open.
One-one-sixteen, eight-o'clock. Small.
Small!
Wolver, it's so small!
How is this possible!
Everybody thinks so.
The dealer knew that it should have been three, four, five, twelve o'clock, but for some reason it didn't appear. The silver on the gambling table was not enough for a thousand taels at all, and a little cold sweat had already appeared on his forehead.
Someone has already reported the situation here to the gambling house manager.
Zheng Fusheng, who was never afraid of big things, shouted at the other party to give the silver quickly. Chen Bingqiu didn't know whether he was excited or frightened, and kept wiping his sweat.
"He's really here to make trouble!" After listening, Shen Zhi, the manager of the gambling house, said angrily.
The silver hadn't been brought yet, and Hu Zhou seemed very patient. Until Shen Zhi appeared and said to Hu Zhou: "Do you want cash or silver tickets?" ”
Hu Zhou didn't pay attention to the threat in his words at all, "Are you the steward here?" ”
"Shen Zhi."
"How about the next round of 1,000 taels?"
One thousand taels!
Almost all gamblers have stopped, if gambling is all about the excitement of it, then what is more exciting than winning or losing a game of 1,000 taels? Maybe two thousand can.
Everyone was waiting for Shen Zhi's answer, his expression was ugly, and his voice was depressed, "Are you sure you want to do this?" ”
There have already been boos. Shen Zhi didn't care, his face was not worth a thousand taels of silver.
Hu Zhou spoke very well, "Then it's still five hundred taels?" ”
At this time, the dealer who had shaken the cup before attached a few words to Shen Zhi's ear, and he said that Shen Zhi's face looked good until he finished speaking, Shen Zhi stared at Hu Zhou and said, "Just one thousand taels and one game." But how about I bet with you? "Every gambling house manager, first of all, has good gambling skills. Shen Zhi said that he was full of momentum, and anyone who gambled a thousand taels would be a little more arrogant.
Hu Zhou made a gesture of please.
Before gambling, the gambling house did some preparations. Shen Zhi cleaned his hands, changed a gambling table, and changed a pair of color cups at the same time. Apparently they have realized what the problem is.
Seeing them do this, Hu Zhou frowned, and Shen Zhi became more and more sure in his heart.
Before the dealer recalled, this group of people began to be familiar with the characteristics of the dice from the first game, and there were two rounds of no betting, as evidenced, so he suggested changing the color cup, and the winner was determined by one game.
Shen Zhi signaled that Hu Zhou could place a bet.
Hu Zhou did not hesitate at all, five hundred taels plus five hundred taels of silver tickets from the gambling house, one thousand taels, and a small bet.
Shen Zhi smiled at the previous dealer and slowly shook the color cup. Everyone's minds swayed with the color cup.
Open.
Shen Zhi's face turned pale.
I saw that in the color cup, the two dice had turned into powder, and the only remaining one was still half of it, a little upward.
A little, too small to be smaller.
The gambling house was so quiet that you could hear your breath.
Hu Zhou saw that Sun Chao's figure had appeared at the door of the gambling house, so he said to Zheng Fusheng, who was blushing with excitement: "The interesting part has passed, and the next one is very boring." ”
