[010] Death as a jade pendant

The expressions on his hands and faces became more and more solemn with Zhou Yi's movements, and Zhou Yi's smooth movements and calm expression made him feel an invisible pressure.

Zhou Yi closed his eyes, felt the shaking of the dice cup in his hand, and tried hard to feel the three dice inside. There was once a man who taught him that every dice is alive, and if you value them and treat them gently, they will be full of spirit and give you everything you want.

The gamblers around him also looked at Zhou Yi with blank eyes, although they didn't know the mystery of this, but at least in terms of expression, they looked like senior gamblers.

Feeling that it was almost over, Zhou Yi gently put the dice cup on the gambling table, looked at his hand, and said, "Guess, what time is this." ”

As soon as these words came out, all the eyes of all the people looked at this and the hand, as the most important person at the gambling table, there is no doubt that he needs to be skilled, and at this moment, it is a matter of testing his skills.

Zhou Yi said to these people: "What are you watching him do? If you don't hurry up and place a bet, will you have to do what he said? Isn't that a ready-made bargain? ”

Everyone laughed and placed bets.

He Shou finally breathed a long sigh of relief and said, "It should be four, five, six, big." ”

So the people who bought the small ones were in a bad mood for a while, but it was lucky that he had better guess wrong. And those who bought the big ones were jubilant, four, five or six were not what they cared about, as long as they came out big, then they would be considered winning.

Zhou Yi opened the dice cup, and there were three dice in it, and sure enough, it was four, five, six.

The people around were in an uproar, they had never seen or didn't know that playing dice could be played to such a state, some gamblers began to reflect, if these and hand skills have reached the point where they can shake any number, then what is the need for them to bet? Whether it's a big bet or a small bet, or a leopard, in the end it will always be the dealer who makes money.

As a result, people who think of this layer suddenly find that it is impossible to make a fortune by gambling, on the contrary, if they indulge in this way, they are afraid that their little family will be hollowed out. So when everyone didn't have an idea, some people got lost, washed their hands, and they walked out of the gambling house, and since then, they have never entered the gambling house again, of course, this is a story for later.

Besides, Zhou Yi, that and the hand accurately said the number of the three dice, which made him impressed, he always thought that Fa Ge only existed in the movie, but now it seems that the world is really full of wonders, since someone thinks about it, then someone will definitely do it.

He pushed the dice cup in front of Nawa and said, "Now it's your turn." ”

Nodding slightly, he took the dice cup and shook it violently, the range of movement was very large, and the sound was also very loud and chaotic, completely different from Zhou Yi's elegant technique just now, perhaps he wanted to make as much sound as possible to disturb Zhou Yi's attention.

The dice cup fell on the table, the dust settled on the points, and he looked at Zhou Yi with some provocation. There is no doubt that Zhou Yi's hand just revealed touched him a lot, but it also stimulated his potential and competitiveness, and he thought that the one he just showed was the most playful in his entire career.

Looking at Zhou Yi again, he just frowned slightly, then his brows relaxed, a slight smile appeared on his face, and he asked with his hand, "There is an answer." ”

Zhou Yi said: "Yes, let everyone bet." ”

Because of the lack of those light gamblers who are on the precipice, the amount of this bet is obviously much smaller than the previous one, but this money and hand are not taken to heart, to their level, to be able to meet an opponent of the same level, far more important than that little insignificant yellow and white thing.

After everyone made a bet, Zhou Yi said without hesitation: "There is only one point in this." ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone was in an uproar, what does it mean to have only one point? As we all know, there are three dice in it, so even if they all shake to one, it should be three points, could it be that he cheated and dropped two of them halfway?

"Zhou Gongzi is really a master here, I admire it, I admire it very much." After Zhou Yi finished speaking, Na Heshou stood up and respectfully bowed to Zhou Yi.

Zhou Yi lifted him up slightly, and said with a smile: "You don't have to be so polite, just learn from each other." Looking at that appearance, the two really have a bit of heart-to-heart pity.

"Hey, hey, you two will talk about it later, let's see if we've guessed correctly."

Those who had already placed bets were already in a hurry, and they categorically would not tolerate Zhou Yi and they were slowly arguing here, shouting one after another.

The two looked at each other and smiled, and gently opened the dice cup with their hands, but the scene presented made the gamblers gasp.

Zhou Yi guessed right, there is indeed only one point, the three dice are actually stacked together, so of course only the top die, the red one, no longer understand.

"Yes, I do have some ability, I still have a task today, it is inconvenient to stay for a long time, don't pass by, if there is a chance in the future, let's have a good time." Zhou Yi collected all his gambling funds, exchanged them for a few ingots of silver, packed them in a money bag, and said goodbye to Na Heshou.

Out of the gambling house, but he didn't expect Zhang Yan to be still outside, Zhou Yi couldn't help laughing and said, "Yo, why is the girl still staying here?" ”

When Zhang Yan saw him come out, her good-looking eyes widened, and she gritted her teeth and said, "You conscienceless person still remember me, and it took so long to come out." ”

"I said girl, I didn't ask you to wait here, how can you blame me?" Zhou Yi felt very aggrieved, as soon as he met this girl, he was stolen from his wallet, and now he has been counted.

Zhang Yan crossed her hands on her hips and said, "Hmph, what Miss Ben says is what it is, and you still dare to talk back?" Do you know who I am? ”

Zhou Yi has no class thinking at all, and he has never bowed to anyone in his previous life when he entered the Great Hall of the People, let alone the little girl in front of him, Zhou Yi scoffed at her threat: "I don't care who you are, you said that you got lost, I kindly took you out, if you don't thank me, even if you say such things, it's unreasonable?" ”

"You, you, you......"

"What am I, okay, now I'm going to have something, you can play by yourself, don't come to me." Zhou Yi waved his hand, then changed directions and left quickly.

Looking at his back as he left in a hurry, Zhang Yan crossed his waist, pouted, and looked resentful, and then whispered, "Hmph, don't play with me." She lowered her head and kicked away a small pebble, looking a little lonely.

Zhou Yi clutched the money bag tightly in his hand, as if he was afraid that it would disappear from his hand again, and hurried to the pawnshop.

Pawnshops were first produced in China during the Northern and Southern Dynasties, and were a major contribution to Buddhist monasteries.

The pawnshop is different from other kinds of shops, and when you enter the door, there is a half-person high fence door, and when you push the door in, the inside is not bright and open, and there is no light, which makes people feel depressed.

When he entered the fence gate, there was a long cabinet at the head, almost as high as Zhou Yi's neck, and an old man sat firmly inside, looking at him condescendingly.

There is a large cabinet in the back of this, and in it are some other people's belongings.

"What are you doing here, this guest officer?" The old man saw that the business was coming, and he stretched out his head slightly and asked.

Zhou Yi took out a drawing and asked, "Did you take this jade pendant here last month?" ”

The old man looked at the drawings and said with a smile: "That's right, this piece of jasper is both transparent and moist, I gave it two taels of silver, if the material is not too small, the price can be higher." ”

Looking at his smug appearance, Zhou Yi couldn't wait to drag him down and beat him, and then suddenly realized that this counter was so high because he was afraid that some guests would do it?

"So a good piece of jade, you will give it as two taels of silver? It's too dark, isn't it? ”

The old man smiled and said: "This guest officer, that's not what he said, we are doing business and not opening a good hall, if it weren't for death, these two taels of silver would be too much." ”

"What? Dead? Zhou Yi couldn't help but say loudly.

Death is also known as absolute, which refers to the behavior of the pawn who neither redeems nor renews. As a result, the pawnshop is unable to recover the pawn money and obtain interest and related expenses, and can realize the dead pawn items in its actual possession to be compensated.

In other words, Zhou Min's piece of family heirloom jade pendant was sold to a pawnshop for two taels of silver.

Zhou Yi continued: "I want to redeem it, give me the things, and I will give you the money." ”

"Guest officer, I'm afraid I can't promise you this, the rules are there." The old man said.

Zhou Yi took out an ingot of fifty taels of silver and smashed it on the cabinet, and said, "Give you twenty-five times the price." ”

"Don't be like this, it's hard for us to do business if you don't cooperate like this." When the old man saw Zhou Yi take out fifty taels of silver at once, he suddenly felt a little shocked in his heart.

"Sixty taels." Zhou Yi didn't let go of his mouth when he saw this old man, and without saying a word, he directly added ten taels of silver, which is unprecedented in terms of price increase.

"It's not a matter of money, what we do business about is willing to buy and sell." The old man didn't let go for some reason, according to reason, he had already made a lot of money at this price.

"Eighty taels." Zhou Yi was determined to take the jade pendant back, and the money was won by gambling, so he raised the price again.

“……”

"One hundred taels."

The old man finally relented and said: "It can be seen that you are bound to get this thing, and this jade pendant can be regarded as meeting a confidant, but unfortunately, you are late, and the jade pendant is no longer in our store." ”

Zhou Yi once again resisted the urge to beat him, and asked in a low voice, "Where did the jade pendant go?" ”
