"Uh......"
As soon as he walked into the "Ding's Gambling House", a sound like the sound of killing a pig came, which directly scared Qin Yong. There's no way, who made him come to the casino without entering the casino at all.
In the previous life, when he was still in the society of the later generations, he was a college student with good moral character, so naturally he would not enter the casino, and in this life, his father was a wealthy businessman in Yangzhou City, and he was a rich second generation of the rich people, so naturally he did not need to enter the casino. Because, all the attractions in the casino basically come from the magic of money, but he already has countless money in his hands, so to speak, he can't count it, so naturally there is no pursuit of getting rich overnight.
In fact, even if the current Qin Yong has not possessed the previous gentleman, in fact, he is not very keen on gambling in the gambling house. Because, there are generally no beauties present in the gambling house, so he is naturally reluctant to enter often. On the contrary, he prefers to go to the Qinglou, so this will leave a romantic reputation in Yangzhou City.
In addition to the sound of killing pigs, two steps closer, a thick strange smell came to the face, and it was fishy, sweaty, and a unique smell of blood on the butcher's body. Uh, Qin Yong really wants to ask, is this a gambling house or a refugee slum? How can that taste reach such a degree?
Looking around, there were now a dozen tables of different sizes, each of which was full of people, fishermen. Butcher, hunter. There are also a few uniformed ones, which are really mixed. But they all have only one identity at this time, that is, gamblers, or the kind of gamblers who have already gambled a little crazy.
Look at their blood-red eyes. Waving the flag and shouting, fighting for his life, Qin Yong couldn't help but sigh secretly in his heart, it seems that no matter what era he is, a gambler is a virtuous person.
"Young owner, are you here?"
At this time, a tall, thin middle-aged man walked over. bent down and said to Ding Lei.
Ding Lei nodded. Pointing at Qin Yong, he said, "Uncle Lu, this is Qin Yong and Qin Gongzi" As he spoke, he said to Qin Yong again: "Well, Brother Qin, this is the big shopkeeper of our 'Ding's Gambling House'." β
Casinos need shopkeepers, and they are also divided into dozens of shopkeepers of all sizes, and the main work of these shopkeepers is to make a banker for the casino in the casino. However, this shopkeeper Lu is a little different. Because he is the big shopkeeper in charge of the entire "Ding's Gambling House", the "Ding's Gambling House" is inside and out. Basically everything is in his hands.
Of course, above him, there is also Ding Lei's father Ding Datong, but. For Ding Lei, the young owner, Shopkeeper Lu didn't pay much attention to it, because. In the past, Ding Lei rarely appeared in the "Ding's Gambling House". Moreover, even if he appears here, he generally doesn't care about anything, so in the eyes of Shopkeeper Lu, Ding Lei naturally has no status.
Of course, although he thinks so in his heart, in fact, he is also quite good at being a person, so he will not show it on his face casually, so Ding Lei doesn't know that he, who is the shopkeeper, actually doesn't value him very much.
However, although Shopkeeper Lu doesn't attach much importance to Ding Lei, a young owner, he is more sensitive to the name Qin Yong. So, after hearing Ding Lei's introduction, he quickly said, "Qin...... Qin Yong? Could it be the Yongyue boy who wrote "Liang Zhu" and "Du Shi Niang's Angry Sinking Treasure Chest"? β
That's right, this must be another loyal fan of "Liang Zhu" or "Du Shi Niang's Angry Sinking Treasure Chest", so Qin Yong also followed suit, and he actually came here and was still recognized by others.
"Yes, it is Qin Yong below, and I have seen Shopkeeper Lu!"
Qin Yong hurriedly bowed his hand and saluted back. Since people recognize him as the "Yongyue Child", then he naturally doesn't dare to put up a shelf casually, so he has to maintain his image as a "Yongyue Child". However, he was quite surprised that Shopkeeper Lu knew about him.
Because, at present, there are many people who spread the two operas "Liang Zhu" and "Du Shi Niang's Angry Sinking Treasure Chest" by "Yongyue Gongzi", but there are relatively few people who know that "Yongyue Gongzi is Qin Yong", and there are so many people named Qin Yong in this world. But on the contrary, this shopkeeper Lu recognized him at a glance, he is the so-called "Yongyue Gongzi", so this is indeed quite strange.
However, in Ding Lei's opinion, this matter is very commonplace, because he has already publicized it in his own home, and he thinks that the "Yongyue Prince" Qin Yong, so the Lu Da shopkeeper in the "Ding's Gambling House" actually knows it, so as soon as he heard Ding Lei introduce Qin Yong's name, he immediately woke up, this is the "Yongyue Prince".
"Hehe, don't dare to be, don't dare to be! By the way, Qin Gongzi came to the gambling house today, but how many games do you want to play? Shopkeeper Lu said suddenly.
Hearing him say this, Ding Lei was slightly stunned, and then glanced at Shopkeeper Lu in surprise, who quickly gave him a look and asked him to calm down.
In fact, his meaning is very simple, that is, their Ding family itself is a casino, and since this "Yongyue Prince" did not dislike Ding Lei because of this, it means that he actually does not dislike casinos, so it is also very reasonable to ask him to give it a try at this time. Maybe this can also enhance the friendship between the two people, anyway, the bets are provided by their "Ding's Casino", and there is no problem if you win or lose.
"How many plays? All right. Then the shopkeeper will give me a hundred taels of silver. β
Sure enough, after Qin Yong heard Shopkeeper Lu's words, his heart moved and he spoke. It turned out that he was also caused by itching, after all, in his previous and present lives, he had never gambled with anyone. What he wants to gamble now is not the opportunity to make a lot of money, but the fun in it. As the so-called small gambling is pleasant, big gambling hurts the body. Qin Yong still knows this very clearly.
"Haha, Qin Gongzi is polite. Childe is a friend of our young owner, and he is a dignified Yongyue son, this money, where can I use Childe to exchange it! Well, there are just a hundred taels of chips here, so let's take it and play with it. Shopkeeper Lu said.
"Well, in that case. You're welcome below. β
Qin Yong was really not polite, so he directly took the chips, and then took Ding Lei to find a place to gamble. It turned out that the main reason why he decided to play was to actually experience what kind of gambling method the so-called gambling house in this era was. Because, only a field trip. Then it is possible to make the most correct construction.
Qin Yong first walked to the table with the most people and looked at it, it turned out that this table was playing betting, that is, pushing a small pebble, and the dealer used a wooden stick to pull out a part. Four-four-one points, get the final four, three, two, one, respectively, corresponding to the east, south, west, north, bettor only need to put the money in the direction of the place. It couldn't be easier.
I didn't think this thing was so popular these days. Although Qin Yong understood it, he had no interest in betting. So he shook his head and sighed, and slowly paced to the table next to him. As a result, when he got there, he appeared, and there was a deck of square cards on the table, and then, his eyes lit up, and he immediately exclaimed: "Pai Gow!" β
"Uh, Brother Qin, this is dominoes."
Ding Lei heard Qin Yong's shout, and couldn't help but correct him. Although he is unlearned and unskilled, and he usually does not help the entire "gambling house", but as the young owner of this "Ding's gambling house", he still understands all kinds of gambling skills in this gambling house. It's just that what he doesn't know is that what Qin Yong said is not the same thing as what he knows.
"Oh? It turns out that this thing is still called this name? β
Qin Yong is actually not very familiar with gambling, but at least he knows that craps and pai gow should be the two more common gambling methods in ancient gambling houses, but he didn't expect that this is not called this name in an era?
It's just that after standing behind the crowd and watching for a while, Qin Yong appeared, this "domino" and "pai gow" are actually not the same thing. Because, the gameplay of this "domino" is too simple, that is, it is bigger than the points, and there is not even the Double Heaven Supreme Kill, so I sighed in my heart and thought, "It seems that this domino should be the predecessor of Pai Gow." β
"Pure, pure."
Suddenly, he heard a shout from a table behind him, so Qin Yong ran over curiously to look, only to see the dealer take away the jar that was originally pressed on the table, he thought it would be dice, but he didn't expect it to be six copper coins, this thing, he did not hear of it for the first time, and it was the first time he saw it, so he couldn't help but ask Ding Lei and said: "Brother Ding, this is ...... What is this called? β
As a result, Ding Lei showed a surprised look and said, "Qin ...... Brother Qin, don't you know this? β
"Nonsense, I know I still ask you?"
Qin Yong rolled his eyes repeatedly, and Ding Lei's eyes were too strange. How? I don't know what this thing is, is it something that can't be done?
How did he know, in fact, the thing in front of him was actually the most popular gambling method in the entire Great Zhou Dynasty, so as long as there were people who had entered the gambling house, they would basically know its name, and even know its rules, even many people who didn't like gambling very much, most of them also knew it, relatively speaking, there were even fewer who didn't know it, so at this time, Ding Lei would show a strange look looking at Qin Yong.
"Hehe, I thought you were deliberately entertaining me."
Ding Lei looked at Qin Yong's expression and knew that he was not joking, so after smiling, he quickly explained this kind of play to Qin Yong.
It turns out that this thing is called Guan Pu, which is the most popular gambling method in Da Zhou, and the gameplay is also very simple, that is, the back of the copper coin is called "pure", and the front side is called "front of the screen", if it is all back up, it is called "pure and pure".
Gamblers generally bet on a few "pure", if someone bets on "pure", once out, it is ten times the profit, many people in order to fight this "pure", often make it clean and slippery, the sleeves are breezy.
"Boring."
After listening to Ding Lei's words, Qin Yong directly gave a comment, thinking secretly, it seems that the gambling method of this "Ding's Gambling House" is indeed not very good, no, he has seen so many gambling methods in a row, but none of them will attract him to bet with money.
In fact, if there is anything about this, it is really the money that misunderstood the "Ding's Gambling Workshop", in fact, the situation is that not only the "Ding's Gambling Workshop", but even other gambling houses in the entire Great Zhou Dynasty, most of them are only a few similar gambling methods, and the other so-called Xinming "gambling methods" are actually most of the extensions and expansions from these basic gambling methods, so the fresh Cheng dΓΉ is actually very limited.
"Uh, boring? That...... Brother Qin, are you still watching? β
When Ding Lei heard Qin Yong's comment, he was really speechless in his heart. So, after a pause, he asked Qin Yong directly. Because, in his heart, he thought that since Qin Yong was saying that it was boring, there must be no reason to continue reading it in the future. It's just that what he didn't expect was that Qin Yong's purpose was not to gamble money, but to experience the main advantages and disadvantages of their gambling methods in the process of gambling money, so you can see that he paused and said, "Look." Why not look? Well, it seems that I haven't bet yet, in that case, let's place a 'pure', well, fifty taels! β
Qin Yong didn't look at it, and directly threw down fifty taels of chips on the word "Hun Chun".
"Hiss......"
As a result, his actions immediately attracted a lot of attention from the surroundings. Because, it is not that there are no people who throw fifty taels of silver at one time to gamble, but the number is relatively small. Because, in a small gambling house like "Ding's Gambling House", most of its gamblers are just those small merchants and hawkers, as well as fishermen, butchers, hunters, etc., anyway, there are very few princes and grandsons of those rich families who will come here to gamble for money. Therefore, although there is a bet of fifty taels of silver at a time, it is relatively rare. In particular, at this time, Qin Yong also placed on "Hun Chun", although the profit of "Hun Chun" is extremely high, but after all, the risk is also high, so all gamblers have turned their eyes sideways when they see this scene.
"Uh, Qin...... Brother Qin, 'Hun Chun' is the rarest, and if you open it ten times, you may not open it once to 'Hun Chun', are you sure that 'Hun Chun' will be at the end? β
Ding Lei saw that Qin Yong's bet was "Hunchun", and as a result, he also thought that Qin Yong didn't hear his introduction clearly just now, so he couldn't help but say a few more words on the side.
It's just that Qin Yong is because he didn't hear his introduction clearly just now, he just felt bored, so he just wanted to lose the chips as much as possible, so he bet fifty taels at one time, and the next fifty taels, his plan was to wait for a while to see that there was a suitable way to bet, and he finished betting at one time. So, after hearing Ding Lei's words, he said, "Sure, let's go!" β
"Okay, buy it and leave, it's open."
"Pure !!!"
So, the bet of fifty taels was placed like this, but what the people on the scene never expected was that the final result was unexpected, because the fifty taels "pure" ordered by Qin Yong were really opened. (To be continued......)
