593 I'd rather finish my gamble
However, when he spoke, he behaved completely inconsistent with his appearance: "Fuck, such a lively place, there is not even a casino!" ”
"Master, it's better if you don't have it, so as not to make a mistake." A strong man standing beside him lowered his head and whispered comfort.
Hearing his advice, the man turned his head sharply and stared at the strong man, his face showing anger.
But he didn't send it out after all, just waved his hand impatiently: "Got it, I know, Ben...... Old Master Winner...... The family values it, and it is impossible to make a mistake when Zhaozhao comes from thousands of miles away. Go down, sir, I'm tired, I need to rest. ”
The strong man knew what the old man wanted to say when he paused, but the official and the master couldn't say it in this kind of place, so be careful that the wall has ears. If the lord can realize this, it should be possible.
It's just that the master's gambling is too heavy, so I'm afraid that I can't control myself, and sooner or later a little bit will be planted on it. It is also true that the master is such a learned person, who is valued by the master, and has made a major performance in the official system of the founding of the country, but he prefers gambling addiction.
Forget it, I was just ordered to protect him, and don't say too much if I am unhappy, so as not to be evil. Thinking of this, the strong man sighed in his heart, saluted respectfully, and went out.
This Confucian-like middle-aged man is a Han man from Liaoyang, and his name is strange, and his surname is Ning. After being plundered as a slave by Jianlu, he was bent on changing his fate, doing his best to show himself, and giving advice to the master of Jianlu, so that his name was heard by the slave chieftain Taiji, so that he was reused.
In the original history, Ning Wan was a scholar of the Hongwen Academy, a minister of parliament, a prince and a prince, and he died and returned to Wenyi, which is a good ending. However, his hands are also indirectly stained with the blood of tens of millions of Han people, just like Fan Wencheng.
And in this plane. It is too sudden and too strong for the heavenly army to rise. Judging from the sporadic information collected, the system and what it is called by the Heavenly Army are unheard of, and Huang Taiji suspects that the Heavenly Army is so powerful and has something to do with these unheard of official systems.
It just so happened that I was proficient in literature and history, and I was even more familiar with the officialdom system. Therefore, Huang Taiji sent him to Yulin in an attempt to find the real reason for the sudden rise of the Heavenly Army.
At this time, Ning Wan said that he wanted to rest, but in fact, he didn't mean to rest. He just didn't have his wish fulfilled and felt uncomfortable.
When he was in Shengjing, in order to get the appreciation of Huang Taiji, he tried his best to suppress his gambling addiction, performed desperately, and finally got his wish.
But the more depressed it is. The more intense the outburst. I have great expectations for being able to gamble a few times when I go out on business. But he didn't expect that when he arrived in Yulin City, he didn't find a casino, at least on the fourth day of his arrival in Yulin, he walked around the main street and didn't find a casino.
After sulking for a while, Ning Wan's mind gradually calmed down. The mind returned to his own task.
However, as soon as I think about it. He was a little depressed again. After several days of inquiry, what I could hear was basically well-known. As for the more confidential information, I didn't get it at all.
It's not like I've never done this kind of espionage thing, at least a few times he was in the Ming Kingdom, it was very smooth. Sit down in the restaurant teahouse and get the news. Then purposefully pull people from several yamen to ask for food and drink. Or stuff a little more money and pull the relationship, and it's easy to know what you want to know.
But in this Yulin City, it is completely different. Each of the more important places requires a different level of access certificate. Every official of the yamen seems to be very sensitive to the news. Don't look at people politely. But as soon as it involves slightly important news, he immediately becomes vigilant, so that he does not dare to mention this kind of topic again.
Ning Wan thought so, naturally I didn't know that Hu Guang was born as an agent and attached great importance to things like espionage intelligence and secrecy regulations. If an intelligence officer of my level like Ning Wan wants to come and ask the Heavenly Army to spy on intelligence here, it is completely Guan Gong's big knife in front of him, and he can't do anything about it.
In addition, the Heavenly Army is an emerging force, everything is thriving, and the people's hearts are not rotten. As soon as these two aspects are combined, it is not too normal to finish my task and hit a wall.
He thought about it, and suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he suddenly had an idea. As long as you have the heart, whether you listen with your ears or buy with money, you will definitely be able to get some news.
For gamblers who have lost red-eyed, as long as they can borrow money from him to gamble again, no matter how strict their mouth is, no matter how big the stakes are, they can't take care of it.
Thinking of this, Ning Wan couldn't help but show a smile on my face. In this way, it is really a double benefit to take care of both business and private affairs.
After a little rest in the afternoon, I took the strong man out again. When passing downstairs, he was seen by the smiling treasurer and hurriedly greeted: "Guest officer, Wishing you prosperity!" ”
Ning Wan I was stunned when I heard it, did he know that I was going to the casino? Thinking like this, he couldn't help but ask in the standard Ming official dialect: "Shopkeeper, what do you mean by this?" ”
The strong man behind him was also a little vigilant, his eyes staring at the middle-aged shopkeeper, trying to see something on his face.
I saw the middle-aged shopkeeper replied with a smile: "Didn't you come to Yulin to do business, and you went out again, obviously the business is good, right?" ”
"Oh!" When I heard it, I breathed a sigh of relief, it turned out that this was the reason. He immediately remembered that he was going to find a casino, and this "Wishing you prosperity" was really a good sign, and thinking of this, he also smiled and said: "Hehe, thank you very much!" ”
After saying that, he went out in a good mood, not noticing the strange smile that suddenly flashed in the shopkeeper.
Under the summer sun, I don't feel like it's that hot. Gamblers are the kind of people, even gamblers who are full of poetry and books, and they are especially concerned about good luck.
Sure enough, this time he went very smoothly, turned east and west to a slightly remote place, and he really touched a casino. After some exchanges, he realized that Yulin City was still under military control, so it was not allowed to open casinos, and it would not be allowed until a magistrate arrived in the future and new taxes came out.
As soon as I heard the familiar and pleasant voice in the casino, my heart boiled. At first, he tried to suppress his impulsive heart, listening to all kinds of gossip and looking for his goal.
It was still so smooth, and it didn't take long for him to lock up a person with a red eye, and it seemed that this person was on an errand in the yamen.
For this kind of person, I am the best at it, and after I get it done in minutes, I finally let go of my heart, and I will have the news I want in two days.
And when he was relieved, his heart itched, and he couldn't help but reach out and gamble a few handfuls. (To be continued.) )
