"Boom"
"Pure, it's really pure! Now, you can make a lot of money! β
"Yes, yes! Fifty taels of pure man, isn't that five hundred taels? β
"Oh my God!"
When many gamblers present saw this scene, their eyes straightened directly. Because, their usual identity is just a small merchant and a hawker, and they rarely have access to such a large sum of money, so when they see this, they are naturally red-eyed. Of course, they didn't think about rushing up, after all, this is a casino, and there are servants and thugs in the casino to maintain law and order, so if they dare to mess around here, there will definitely be no good fruit to eat in the end.
"Ah, Brother Qin, don't you know how to gamble? How...... Why did you win our 'Ding's Gambling House' for 500 taels all of a sudden? Ding Lei was also taken aback when he saw such a result, so he couldn't help but say to Qin Yong with a wry smile.
Of course, he didn't feel sorry for the five hundred taels of silver, because the five hundred taels of silver were not his private money, but his father's accounts, which his father paid for. And these five hundred taels are not much, and they are not too much, it depends on who the object is. For him, the five hundred taels of silver can be regarded as a lot of money, but for his father Ding Datong and the entire "Ding's Gambling House", it is not a big deal, because although their "Ding's Gambling House" is only a small casino, but this amount of money is only equivalent to their income for two days on weekdays, so they can still afford it.
"Ugh."
Qin Yong actually couldn't cry or laugh at this time, because the reason why he decided to bet "Pure Pure" with fifty taels just now was just to output the chips in his hand as much as possible.
After all, these chips turned out to be given by the "Ding's Gambling House", so. I don't feel bad when the output goes. However, he didn't expect that his luck was so good, he just placed a bet so casually, and as a result, he won five hundred taels of silver, which was really a windfall, but he didn't take it to heart, so he said, "Hehe." Luck, pure luck. Let's go, Brother Ding, let's go to other places to see. β
Qin Yong didn't want to stay here to be a monkey for others, not to mention, the five hundred taels of silver might really be a huge amount of money in the eyes of others, but in his eyes, it was very tight. Because. His "Qin's Dessert House", the daily income is far from being comparable to this five hundred taels.
Of course, in addition to the "Qin's Dessert House", their Qin family also has other industries. Therefore, no matter from which point of view, these five hundred taels of silver are not enough to move Qin Yong.
"Huh. Brother Ding, there are a lot of people in your gambling house! β
Observe as you walk. So, Qin Yong suddenly opened his mouth and said to Ding Lei again. In fact, he didn't mean that there were really a lot of people here, but that he was referring to this chaotic environment, because the shouting of those gamblers on the scene was very loud, coupled with the smell of sweat emitted from their bodies, even if Qin Yong was basically not hindered at all when he walked on the road, he still felt that there were more people here.
It's just that Ding Lei didn't understand the meaning of his words, so as soon as he heard his words, he immediately laughed and said, "Hehe, Brother Qin, then you just don't know something." Although our 'Ding's Gambling House' is far inferior to those big gambling houses in Beijing, our business has always been good. The scene you see now is actually less than two or three out of ten in the past, so there is nothing to see. β
Ding Lei was a little proud, but he didn't expect that his own words directly made Qin Yong not know what to say.
"It's only two or three out of ten, this smell is so big, if ten percent of the guests are here, wouldn't it have to be smoked to death?"
Qin Yong's heart was speechless, so he decided to stop discussing this issue with Ding Lei. So, the two of them then looked at several gambling methods such as "rolling dice" and "throwing pots", but Qin Yong never took the money to bet anymore. This is because these gambling methods really can't arouse his interest, and the other reason is because the chips in his hand are currently a little too much, and if he wants to output them all, it is already a little difficult, so he simply stopped betting, anyway, he already has some ideas in his heart for this "Ding's Gambling House".
"Let's go, Brother Ding, let's go see Uncle Ding!" Qin Yong finally said.
"Okay, Brother Qin, please come here!"
The two of them walked through the main lobby of the guΓ² gambling house, then crossed a small road, and then came to a courtyard.
"Qin Gongzi, please wait a minute, and ask the owner to come out in the next horse."
After Shopkeeper Lu sent Qin Yong here, he confessed to Qin Yong, and then went to the back to inform Ding Datong.
It turned out that because Qin Yong was in a hurry, Ding Datong at this time had not received any news at all, so Shopkeeper Lu was naturally going to inform him.
As for Ding Lei, when he returned to his home, he was much more relaxed, so he sat down and poured a glass of water on his own, and said to Qin Yong while drinking, "Brother Qin, don't stand still, my father and a few of my aunts are probably studying new gambling methods, so they won't be able to come for a while." Let's sit down first. β
"Oh. It's good. β
Hearing Ding Lei say this, Qin Yong was naturally not polite. Anyway, he also needed a little time to prepare some things at the moment, so while sitting down, he said to Ding Lei, "Brother Ding, you might find that kind of thicker rice paper here?" β
"Rice paper? What do you want this for? I don't have anything like that at home. β
Qin Yong was a little sweaty, he knew a long time ago that Ding Lei was actually not good at pen and ink, but it wasn't that he couldn't find a single piece of rice paper in the entire house, right? Isn't that too embarrassing to say? Could it be that the people in their family are all illiterate people who can't read a few words?
Moreover, even if you are illiterate, many people will have a lot of books, papers, and other things in their rooms, and the purpose is to be used as decorations and for display. Just like Qin Yong's father, Qin Butcher, in fact, he is also not good at writing and ink, but his study is full of all kinds of books, but he will not turn these books for a few years.
"Well, just make something. Well, pen and ink are also needed, you can help me find it. β
Qin Yong said. The thing he wants to do now really needs pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, so he didn't have to be polite to Ding Lei. As for Ding Lei, although he still felt quite strange in his heart, he finally met Qin Yong's request. It's just that the way he finally found these pen, ink, paper and inkstones really made Qin Yong a little crying and laughing, because he sent someone to the "Ding's Gambling House" in front of him, and then borrowed these things from the bookkeeper. Co-authored, they are a dignified Ding family, a wealthy family, and there is really no pen, ink, paper, and inkstone for writing and counting?
"Brother Qin, what are you going to do here? What is the purpose of writing these words, and what are they used for drawing these patterns? Well, say it, my little brother can help you! β
The pen, ink, paper, and inkstone were brought, so Qin Yong immediately got busy. First, he cut a relatively thick piece of rice paper into small sheets, the size and shape are the same.
Then he started to draw patterns and numbers on it with a pen. Numbers, of course, are ordinary big-character numbers, because, in this era, Arabic numerals are far from reaching the universal Cheng dΓΉ, as for painting, it is completely some spades, hearts, squares and so on. That's right, what he is doing now is a kind of entertainment that has been widely spread in later generations, that is, poker.
It's just that if you want to make this poker card, it's really troublesome enough. Because, its total number of cards is a total of fifty-four, and on the first card, he must draw an equal amount of patterns, so this process is really not easy. So, after Qin Yong heard Ding Lei's question, he glanced at Ding Lei at that time and said, "These are a small game I came up with before, called 'playing cards'." If you're willing to help, well, come, then I'll leave these patterns to you. β
Let Ding Lei give him a hand, Qin Yong's heart really doesn't even have the slightest pressure. After all, in the final analysis, this matter is also the business of their Ding family, so it is still appropriate to let him, a young owner, make some efforts. Moreover, this job should not be difficult for Ding Lei. Because, although he doesn't know a few big characters, he still recognizes at least the big characters from one to ten. And what about the different patterns? Although he had never seen it before, it was very simple after all, so he could still copy it.
Of course, before this, Qin Yong must first do a good demonstration, and then the numbers on the playing cards must also be written by him personally, otherwise, if it is replaced by Ding Lei to write, who knows what the hell he will write in the end.
"Playing cards? Interesting, interesting! Can it be used for gambling money? If yes, we might as well try Ding's Casino. β
Ding Lei really deserves to be the one who opened a gambling house in this house, no, Qin Yong just said a little bit of meaning, he actually thought that this is actually a method used to gamble.
"That's right, hurry up. I'll teach you how to play when your dad comes! Qin Yong said.
"Yes, yes, Brother Qin, I'll do it."
With Ding Lei's helper joining, Qin Yong's action of making zuΓ² playing cards is naturally a lot faster, no, about two quarters of an hour later, just when there was a rush of footsteps outside, Qin Yong's work on their side was also completed. (To be continued......)
