Chapter 157: Gambling with Others
At this time, a short old man came to Chen Fan and said with a smile at him. If you can, I'm willing to help you understand the rules of gambling stones. ”
Seeing the person in front of him, Chen Fan felt inexplicably unreliable in his heart. Looking at his appearance like a river, you know that he often does this business.
"Can you stop lying to people? A staff member of the Black Cloud Stone Workshop said suddenly.
The people who were able to come to this courtyard were definitely not ordinary. It's okay for this old thing to be a person who doesn't know how to do it outside, if he angers a noble disciple, their entire stone workshop will suffer.
After the old man was angrily scolded by the staff, an old face suddenly turned red with anger. He actually has real talent and learning, but he is not as strong as he says.
"You guy, you actually said that the old man is a liar, and I am also a very famous stone cutter, okay. The voice of these words became smaller and smaller, and in the end, the old man himself had no confidence.
Chen Fan was also silent when he saw this scene, and he didn't have much to say. With the existence of gluttonous predecessors, he doesn't need the old man in front of him to explain anything more for him.
So Chen Fan said slowly: "Thank you for the kindness of your predecessors, but the kid still wants to try it himself." ”
As soon as these words came out, not only the old man in front of him couldn't help laughing, but everyone who heard this sentence wanted to laugh.
Out of Chen Fan's politeness to him, the old man still persuaded him with good words: "If the young man has no relevant experience, he should not rush to cut the stone, this will lead to nothing." ”
And the dignitaries who heard this next to him directly mocked.
"I don't know which poor boy jumped out of the poor countryside and thought that cutting stones was cutting watermelons?"
"You can see him like this, it is definitely the first time to come to Shifang, how can such an uninformed thing run in. ”
In such an environment, it is easy to create a chain of contempt. If you don't fit into their circle, you can easily be despised by this group of so-called high-ranking officials and nobles.
No matter where you are, as long as there are people, there must be a comparison.
Chen Fan looked at them and didn't speak, a group of guys sitting in the well and watching the sky. Relying only on the shadow of his own father, he didn't know what to be proud of.
He is definitely not a passive and silent guy, hearing the ridicule of others, Chen Fan responded with a smile.
"It looks like it's a lot of bragging, and if we're not convinced, we can go out and have a fight. Hearing Chen Fan's words, those noble children stopped speaking one by one.
If they are jealous, each of them is stronger than the other. But when it comes to heads-up, ten of them together can't beat Chen Fan.
However, although they couldn't beat Chen Fan, they quickly thought of another way.
"Since this is a gambling stone shop, do you dare to gamble with me? Several noble children united and said to Chen Fan.
Tao Tao said at this time: "Chen boy, you bet with them, I am supporting you, don't worry, just let go completely." ”
Hearing the words of the gluttonous senior, Chen Fan suddenly had confidence in his heart. He pretended to be silent for a moment, and then said unhurriedly: "Since you want to gamble, then I will accompany you to the end." What's just a bet?"
Chen Fan's words made the eyes of the noble children glow with greed. The kid from the countryside in front of him really dared to gamble with them, he really didn't know how thick the sky was.
"The bet is very simple, if you cut something better than me, then I'll give you what I cut out. ”
"If I don't pick up something, everyone will compensate you with 1,000 medium-grade spirit stones, so you won't have anything to say. ”
Hearing this price, Chen Fan was still quite satisfied in his heart. A thousand medium-grade spirit stones can buy a lot of things, although he is not very short of spirit stones, but this thing is definitely the more the merrier.
"You won't lose the debt at that time, right?" Chen Fan deliberately asked with a radical method, it is not that this possibility is impossible.
"Since you can't believe us, let's write it. ”
As soon as these words came out, a staff member had already sent pen and paper. Obviously, such gambling fights often happen here, and Shifang is ready.
"Okay, then we'll make a note and start the fight. ”
Both sides wrote their names on the paper, and after one person got a note, the gambling fight officially began.
Everyone thought that the boy in black would definitely lose, a man from the countryside who had never seen the world. The first time I saw the gambling stone, I wanted to operate it myself. It's really a laugh to die when you say it.
None of the stone cutting masters present dared to speak, if someone dared to lend a helping hand to Chen Fan at this time, he wouldn't have to mix here.
Chen Fan has the help of his gluttonous predecessors, and he doesn't need other stone cutting masters to intervene.
These aristocratic sons found one of the most skilled stone cutters in the entire stone workshop. It can be seen that they are eager to win this bet.
The stone cutter has been working here for so many years, and has been studying stone cutting for dozens of years. Seeing Chen Fan's young appearance, he shook his head inwardly, but he still agreed to the request of the noble sons.
No one will be unable to get along with money, and he can't help but be moved by the price offered on the other side. Although there is some bullying in this, in his opinion, it seems that it is not bad to let the boy in black recognize the facts.
Failure to gamble on stones will only lose some money, and will not harm your own life. If you are so arrogant when you fight for others in the future, you will definitely kill yourself.
Thinking of this, Master Stonecut's heart suddenly calmed down.
Cutting stone is a technical job, not only with exquisite craftsmanship, but also with a calm state of mind. Otherwise, an excitement at a critical moment caused his hands to tremble.
The slightest mistake is a thousand miles. It would be a pity to damage the spiritual jade inside.
After calming down his mood on the spot, Master Cutting Stone said to Chen Fan: "I don't know if the young man is ready, if he is ready, then let's start." ”
Chen Fan still has no opinion on the stone cutting master, after all, the opposite side is to take money to do things, and eat with his own skills.
Everyone has their own way of life, and he can't judge other people's lives for anything.
"I'm ready, let's get started. ”
As Chen Fan finished saying this, the atmosphere on the field instantly heated up. Everyone wants to see what the boy in black can cut out.
