The sports star confirmed it, and after thinking carefully for a while, making sure that there was nothing missing, and he couldn't come up with an idea to add it, after looking at a few more rounds of archery competitions, Lin Dong stood up.

"Young man, don't you want to see it?"

Behind him, an old man's business rang out.

Lin Dong nodded with a smile and said, "There is something wrong, go back first." ”

"Lao Li, let's go back too." The old man nodded and looked at his companion beside him: "After watching it for so long, Wan Xiliang is worth seeing, and if I continue to look at it, I will almost fall asleep." ”

"I'm pretty much the same, but don't look at it...... It feels like a waste! Another old man hesitated: "Our row is more than 800 yuan a ticket, it's a pity not to finish reading." ”

"Yes!"

Lin Dong was speechless, this conversation was not good news for him.

The two behind him are archers themselves, and they undoubtedly have a very high passion for archery. Even the two of them watched drowsy, let alone the rest of the audience.

The sharpshooters in the barracks also have official ranks, although they are only eight ranks, but they are for life. In terms of household belongings, although they are not as good as those big households, they are not far behind. It's a pity to waste it today, and tomorrow, I guess it won't come. On the second day of opening, the number of visitors dropped by a third, and it is not for nothing that the number of visitors dropped.

When it comes to sports stars, you have to hurry.

walked all the way out of the passage, came to the store, and after saying hello to Chang Fei, Lin Dong went straight to the street.

It is the most lively time, the street, people come and go, small stalls and vendors are enthusiastically shouting, and pedestrians are strolling with great interest...... Lin Dong's mind was constantly thinking about the affairs of sports stars, and he was walking towards the Lin Ji Inn on the same street a little carelessly.

Lin Dong frowned, looked to the left, and saw a young man in a blue cloth shirt, embarrassed, running wildly.

"Let it, let it ......"

The young man rushed straight in the direction of Lin Dong, constantly beckoning to get out of the way, but he didn't seem to think about turning around to avoid it.

Lin Dong glanced at the few big men who were chasing after the young man, and then looked up and glanced behind the big man. And the lower left of the signboard, the gambling word cloth in the wind is even more confusing.

Although the gambling house is a vicious place, it is rare to see people in the gambling house blatantly arresting and beating people, even if they owe usury to the casino, in order to make gamblers who are interested in borrowing usury not be frightened, they will also be carried out in secret. will be so blatantly chasing people, either gambling or smashing the field. Only these two kinds, blatantly carried out, not only have little impact on the gambling pleasure of gamblers, but also play a role in killing chickens and monkeys.

Lin Dong glanced at the young man, embarrassed, his steps were vain, and the chance of gambling was greater.

After hesitating for a moment, Lin Dong turned around and continued to move forward.

Bang!

With a crisp sound, Lin Dong's footsteps remained unchanged, and the young man who only knew how to ask others to let go, but he didn't know how to turn a corner, flew out upside down suddenly.

"Zhang Jiufang, look where you run."

"Dare to come to the gambling house in our day to make a ghost, if you can run out, I will be surnamed Zhang with you in the future."

The shouting and scolding continued, and the commotion became more and more messy, Lin Dong thought that there was nothing wrong with him, but a young man who was panting quickly overtook him, and then knelt on the ground and grabbed Lin Dong's thigh.

"Big brother help, big brother help me......"

The young man who asked for help was a fraudster known as Zhang Jiufang.

"I think, it's better to be free, right? There are four or five people, and I only have one, but it's not that powerful. Lin Dong said lightly.

"No, no, big brother, help." Zhang Jiufang dragged Lin Dong and said hurriedly: "Don't look at my skinny body, but my strength is notoriously strong, I accidentally collided with my eldest brother, my eldest brother didn't move, but I flew out." At this point, the eldest brother must be a martial artist. ”

"So what? The thugs of the gambling house, which one is not a martial artist? Lin Dong said lightly: "What's more, if you deliberately bump into me, if you can't hit me, I'll ask me for help, if you hurt me, don't tell me, you will accompany the soup and medicine." That's it, why should I save you? ”

"This, this ......" Zhang Jiufang was speechless, but he still hugged Lin Dong's thigh.

"Zhang Jiufang, tell me honestly who sent you here." Four big hands from the Tianlai Gambling House surrounded Lin Dong and the two in the center, and one of them sneered: "In this case, I can still leave you a way to live." Otherwise, the mass grave in the east of the city will be where you will live in the future. ”

Zhang Jiufang shuddered, screamed and begged for mercy incoherently: "Uncles, I really came to the casino to gamble, let me go!" I'm old and young, and I really didn't come to the casino to steal the game at the Lin Kee Gymnasium. ”

Lam Kee Gymnasium, gambling game?

Lin Dong, who was about to kick Zhang Jiufang away, was stunned, how did the gambler cheat and gamble, how did it hit his head?

"Really?" The thug at the head showed a hideous look on his cold face: "I said, you came to steal the game at the Lin Ji Gymnasium?" ”

Zhang Jiufang opened his mouth wide, and his face turned pale in an instant. The chagrin in his heart, if it weren't for the fact that he had to hold Lin Dong's last life-saving straw with both hands, almost made him want to pull all his hair off.

"Boy, we're here to run errands in the casino every day, if it has nothing to do with you, get out of the way." A big man stared at Lin Dong coldly, a little unhappy with his composure.

Lin Dong was silent, his spiritual power poured into his right leg slightly, and with a snap, Zhang Jiufang was shocked a little. Immediately, he did not go towards the Lin Ji Inn, but turned around and walked to the Tianlai Gambling House.

Lin Kee Gymnasium gambling game, how to go and see what is going on.

"Big brother...... Save me! Zhang Jiufang's reaction was clever, and he was easily shaken away, and it also strengthened Lin Dong's determination to save his life, and he instantly pounced on his thigh.

Lin Dong's body was slightly on one side, and Zhang Jiufang threw himself into the air and lay on the ground.

"Big brother, help me. I'm willing to pay my eldest brother, a hundred taels can't do it. Zhang Jiufang cried and begged: "If it doesn't work, two hundred taels, three hundred taels, even if it's a thousand taels." I'm Zhang Jiufang, if my eldest brother had heard of it, he would have known that I could pay back the money. ”

"Are you famous?" Lin Dong was puzzled: "If you really can get a thousand taels of silver, why do you have to go to other people's gambling houses to steal things for some silver?" ”

"Famous, of course famous." Zhang Jiufang shouted: "I am the number one painter in Lingnan City, one thousand taels of silver, if I really want to earn it, it will not take a few months to earn it." This is not, this is not ...... I was too lazy to come out and paint people, I owed people money, and I was forced to do this kind of thing. Big brother, don't worry, as long as you save me, I promise to change my past mistakes for half a year...... No, as long as it takes three months, I will definitely pay the eldest brother 1,000 taels of silver. ”

Lin Dong smiled dumbly, in this world, he has seen all the ups and downs. With Zhang Jiufang's flickering gaze and the loopholes in his words, he could immediately determine that he really wanted to save this kid for a thousand taels. This kid left Lingnan City the next day.

However, the artist ...... If this kid is really the number one painter in Lingnan City, isn't he the person he needs to use when promoting sports stars?

"Big brother, trust me." Seeing that Lin Dong didn't speak, Zhang Jiufang thought that he was moved, and kept reassuring: "One thousand taels, I can write an IOU to my eldest brother now, three months, and I promise to pay it back in three months." ”

"How about you paint portraits?" Lin Dong asked a very strange question in the eyes of onlookers.

"Huh?" Zhang Jiufang thought he had heard it wrong for a while, and he didn't know how to answer.

At this time, the periphery of the four thugs was already surrounded by a lot of brave pedestrians, seeing that the atmosphere inside was a little weird, a strong man who was brave enough and waiting to see the four thugs abuse Zhang Jiufang couldn't bear it, and shouted: "Brother outsider, right?" Zhang Jiufang, this kid, has three unique skills, one is fast, the second is to remember the surname well, and the third is to draw vividly. ”

"This guy is just a little unprofessional, gambling and arrogant. Otherwise, it would be like this. Someone said: "Master Liu in the north of the city paid a hundred taels of silver to ask him to paint a portrait, but because the tea was not good enough, he teased Master Liu on the portrait." It's a shame that Master Liu still showed it on his fiftieth birthday, and the place of teasing was seen by others, and he almost didn't make people angry. The steward of the treasury king saw that he had some talent, and kindly invited him to go to the treasury to do paperwork, but he was good, as soon as he heard that four taels of silver was a month, he would just go away, so he deliberately agreed, but the account books of the treasury were a mess. was kicked out, and he shouted and scolded that people looked down on him, so he was only given four taels of silver for a month. He didn't look at it, these years, there are a few people who can earn four taels of silver a month. He deserves to be killed even if he is killed, this son, I think you should not wade into troubled waters, so as not to cause trouble for this kind of person. ”

"yes, yes......"

Seeing a bold opening, the crowd of onlookers suddenly followed the trend like a tide. Every word you say to me, none of you are sympathetic to Zhang Jiufang.

Casino thugs, in the eyes of ordinary people, are villains who kill people without blinking. The villain is arresting people, but no one sympathizes with the one who has been caught, and there is no doubt that this person is not inferior to the villain.

"Big brother, don't listen to them. They're jealous, yes, jealous of my talent. Zhang Jiufang was in a cold sweat, staring at the crowd of onlookers, eager to eat them all into his stomach.

Lin Dong laughed dumbly, his character has failed to such an extent, and he blames others for being jealous, which is the best enough.

However, the words of the onlookers made Lin Dong affirm that Zhang Jiufang was indeed a painter, and he did have some skills in portraits.

Just a gesture, useful people, of course saved. As for character...... Cheng Bao, the head of the mountain bandits who killed people and set fires, was accepted as a chef, and the shopkeeper of the black shop Jade Peony was also brought into the inn, just Zhang Jiufang, compared with these two, especially Cheng Bao, if he has a worse character, he is not qualified to lift shoes.

"Boy, are you going to get out of the way?" The thug at the head was a little impatient.

Lin Dong smiled indifferently, and the next moment, the four thugs instantly felt that their bodies were out of control, and they couldn't move at all.

Such a strange thing, Rao is four people are all martial arts students, and they can't help but feel creepy, one by one, their faces are pale, and they want to call for help, but their beating hearts make none of them scream.

Lin Dong grabbed Zhang Jiufang's collar, and after picking it up a little, he said with a smile: "Say it!" Who told you to come to the casino? ”

"This, this ......" Zhang Jiu was embarrassed, and when he said it, I am afraid it will be even more dangerous.

Click!

In the next second, Lin Dong grabbed Zhang Jiufang's right hand by the collar and pulled it up slightly, and in an instant, the palm of his hand changed from the collar to his neck. With just a slight force, Zhang Jiu screamed.

It was only a dozen sounds, Zhang Jiu couldn't resist the pain, and stammered in pain: "It's Hong Wanfu, the owner of Hongfu Gambling House, it's Hong Wanfu." ”

The palm of the hand, which was constantly strengthened, stopped. Lin Dong's gaze swept over the faces of the two thugs directly opposite, and said casually: "Since the subject has come out, give me a face, how about I let this one go?" ”

As soon as the words fell, the power that imprisoned the bodies of the four people disappeared in an instant.

The four of them, two trembling forces, looked at Lin Dong's gaze with a deep sense of horror.

"If you don't speak, that's acquiescence."

Lin Dong carried Zhang Jiufang and walked towards the location of Lin Ji Inn.

"Big brother, be careful, watch out for their sneak attack."

Zhang Jiufang kept reminding Lin Dong's men, however, until Lin Dong brushed shoulders with a thug, he still didn't encounter any obstacles.

In a disappointed gaze, Lin Dong walked through the crowd.

Zhang Jiufang saw that the thugs did not chase after him, and immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and said loudly: "Thank you for your great kindness, big brother, you can let me go." ”

Lin Dong smiled, didn't pay attention, grabbed Zhang Jiufang all the way to the right side of the Lin Ji Inn.

After arriving at the side door of the backyard, Lin Dong opened the door and walked in with Zhang Jiufang.

"Big brother, where are you going to take me?" Seeing that there was no one around, Zhang Jiufang was a little panicked, don't just get out of the wolves and enter the tiger's den.

"Big brother, don't worry, I'll write an IOU now. Trimester...... No, two months, as long as two months, I will bring you a thousand taels of silver. ”

At the stone table in the backyard, seeing Lin Dong enter the door, Liu An, who had been sitting, stood up.

Glancing at Zhang Jiufang in Lin Dong's hand, Liu An wanted to speak and stopped.

Lin Dong's right hand turned into a knife and slashed at the back of Zhang Jiufang's neck, who was chattering, and in the next second, the whole world was a little clearer.

Throwing Zhang Jiufang to the ground, Lin Dong sat down on the stone bench and said, "What's the matter?" ”

"Liang Gufeng came over and said that he had something to talk to the shopkeeper. The steward told me to wait for the shopkeeper in the backyard and ask if I wanted to see him. Liu An explained: "According to Steward Ma's guess, Liang Gufeng's intention should be to pull us together to deal with Hongfu Restaurant." ”

"Liang Gufeng ......"

Lin Dong pondered for a moment, and made a decision in his heart, it was impossible to join forces, he had already made up his mind, and when Fenglin Restaurant and Hongfu Restaurant were fighting, he fished in troubled waters and mixed in directly, that was nothing to look for.

However, you still have to see the previous side. Liang Gufeng is not a fool, he should know that the development of Lin Ji Inn is the best policy, and mixing it will do more harm than good. will come to the door, undoubtedly not to suspect that the people of Lin Ji Inn are stupid, there should be something good as a condition.

It's one thing to say yes or no, it's just a waste of time.

Of course, you have to finish the business at hand first.

"Liu An, don't reply yet, find a basin of water." Lin Dong instructed: "In addition, it is best to bring pen and ink, I plan to let you be in charge of the affairs of the Lin Ji Gymnasium for a while, and there are some things to explain." ”

Liu An was overjoyed, being Ma Chun's follower and being in charge of Lin Ji Gymnasium alone, which was a great leap.

After a while, Liu An trotted over with a wooden basin. In the wooden basin, the water splashes and sways. And in Liu An's placket, a piece of rice paper flickered with his steps.

"Give him a pot!" Lin Dong pouted at Zhang Jiufang.

Although Liu An was strange in his heart, he didn't ask much, and came to Zhang Jiufang with a wooden basin, and a basin of cold well water poured down on his head.

Hiss...... Zhang Jiufang shuddered, his body twitched a few times, he woke up in a daze, and when he saw Lin Dong, he was completely sober.

Glancing at the wooden basin in Liu An's hand, and then at Lin Dong sitting on the stone bench, Zhang Jiufang swallowed his saliva, and said with a cautious smile: "Big brother, ...... are you?"

"Let's talk about the gambling game at Lin Kee Gymnasium first." Lin Dong said lightly.

"Betting?" Zhang Jiufang was confused, and he couldn't understand why Lin Dong was interested in this. If you really want to know, you can go to the Tianlai Gambling House to understand.

Lin Dong took out the martial arts card and shook it in front of Zhang Jiu, and wrote lightly: "For a martial artist, to kill a person with a bad reputation, you only need to find a reason to act bravely, and it seems that you don't even have to pay a fine." ”

Zhang Jiufang's liver and gallbladder were cracked, and he was crawling on the ground, trembling all over. Sure enough, out of the wolf's den, and into the tiger's den.

"I ask and answer, and if I know, I will answer immediately, and if I don't know, I will say that I don't know, and don't ask back." Lin Dong took the martial arts card back to the mobile counter and said in a deep voice: "What's going on with the gambling game in Lin Ji Gymnasium?" ”

Zhang Jiufang dared to hesitate, and hurriedly said in a trembling voice: "That is a new gambling method launched by Tianlai Casino yesterday afternoon, there are two ways to gamble, the four major events of Lin Ji Gymnasium, you can bet on a single or four games the next day, a total of several people can get a full score of 100, and then 99 points, 98 points...... Until 100 points, you can't get a point. In terms of odds, the lowest buys one loses ten, and the highest buys one loses hundred. There is also a bet on who can enter the autumn competition, the lowest buy one loses one point, and the highest buy one loses one hundred. I heard that there will be an increase in the double bet of each game in the future, betting on who can take the first, second and third and other gambling methods, I happened to owe a large amount of silver in the Hongfu gambling house, and I can never forget, so Hong Ye sent me over to write down all the gambling methods of the Tianlai gambling house, which should be intended to launch this gambling method in the Hongfu gambling house. ”

Lin Dong frowned slightly, on the first day of the opening of Lin Kee Gymnasium, Tianlai Casino launched a gambling game. With this vision for the future development of Lin Kee Gymnasium and the courage to launch a gambling game without any information, the owner of Tianlai Casino can suppress Hong Wanfu, who has dominated the gambling industry in Lingnan City for more than 20 years, to change careers, and I am afraid that it is not just by relying on the relationship with the county. Personal ability is the biggest reason.

At the very least, Hong Wanfu wants to copy the Tianlai Gambling House, which shows that Hong Wanfu is slightly inferior.

This is probably very bad news for Lin Kee Gymnasium.
