Chapter 189: A Heroic Throw
This time Lin Mei was interested, with the guidance of the shouting guy, into the leftmost gambling hall, because it is a long gamble, for a while and a half can not open the mystery, the gambling hall is not big, the gambling people will not always guard, so there are not many gamblers in the hall.
There is no gambling table in the gambling hall, but there is a desk, and sitting in front of the desk must be the head of the village, and there are two big and three thick thugs behind him. Next to a large wooden cabinet with a lock, facing the wall of the door for a god of wealth, on the left and right pasted a pair of couplets, which read: The four directions are prosperous, Bai Wan is from the middle, and the elegant wind is crossed.
There is red paper on the left wall of the gambling hall, and the names of each restaurant are written according to the ranking, this ranking is also very particular, it is actually sorted by the opening history of the restaurant, the higher the front, the greater the probability of winning, the longest century-old Dongxing Building has a history of 130 years, and the Fan Building of Chang'an is written for 74 years, ranking fifth, so it is okay? Tianxianglou has been ranked eighth for thirty-one years, and Yuxian Village has been ranked nineteenth for thirteen years.
Lin Mei looked at the bottom of the red apricot building, and then looked at the penultimate one with a history of three years, and couldn't help but pout.
The county lord of Jiaoyue looked at the list and bumped her with his elbow, "Hey, do you want to bet more." ”
"No, you don't." Lin Mei smiled slightly, turned around and asked, "Zhuangtou, how to place this bet?" But what's the point? ”
Zhuang Tou put down the sheep hair in his hand, and said with a smile: "Childe face, it must be the first time to come to our gambling house, this time Yadou bet is the top five who won the game the day after tomorrow, if Childe wants to bet a few more, it is okay, as for the gambling money, a penny or a hundred taels, or a thousand taels, it's okay, anyway, there is no limit to gambling money." Of course, the odds will vary, there is a list on the wall, different odds are carried out in the order of the list, the top five, one to one, the fifth to the fifteenth, one to three, the sixteenth to the twenty-fifth, one to five, the twenty-sixth to the thirty-fifth, one to seven, the last one, the highest odds, one to ten. ”
Ten to one? What a big breath, and I'm not afraid of the wind flashing my tongue?
Lin Mei took a breath of cold air, "How many people are buying Hongxing Lou now?" ”
Zhuang Tou shook his head, "If someone buys, how can there be such high odds, wouldn't it be a fool." ”
"You can't say that, everything is an exception." The county lord of Jiaoyue was afraid that Lin Mei would be unhappy, so he comforted.
Zhuang Tou glanced at her, someone wanted to be a fool, so naturally he wouldn't stop him, "Childe is arrogant, may I ask which one of your bets?" It's so small that you can make a bet. ”
Seeing that Lin Mei was silent, the lord of Jiaoyue County bit his lip and made up his mind: "It's not that my son can't afford to lose, Hongxing Mansion is two hundred taels." ”
After speaking, he glanced at the wall again, and was unwilling: "Dongxing Building also buys two hundred taels." ”
In this way, if the real Dongxing Building wins and the Hongxing Building loses, it will only lose one hundred taels of silver, and the county lord can still afford to lose this money.
Lin Mei accepted this affection and said with a smile: "Since the senior brother is willing to be the first person to eat crabs, the younger brother is not talented, and he is willing to follow the eldest brother, Hongxinglou, five thousand taels of silver." ”
The dealer dares to stipulate that no one will buy the red apricot building, no one is a fool, presumably the dealer is not, if the red apricot building really wins the top five places, the odds will not be so high. Five thousand taels is already Lin Mei's biggest limit, otherwise she would not have missed the opportunity.
Everyone present immediately stared at her like a monster.
Zhuang Tou was even more shocked, his eyes widened, and he opened his mouth, thinking that he had misheard, "Childe is drunk?" That's five thousand taels of silver! ”
Lin Mei smiled: "What kind of wine to eat?" This is five thousand taels, a silver ticket of one thousand taels, a total of five, please take a look, go out of this door, if you say it is fake, I will not admit it. ”
The county lord of Kyaukyue is considered a rich and powerful lord, but he was also shocked by her extravagant spending a lot of money. I wanted to persuade her, but I felt that it was wrong, the cooking skills of the Lin family's chef had been tasted by herself, and the taste was really good, could it be that she had a secret recipe to win? Thinking like this, he pulled Lin Mei to a corner where no one was, and asked in his ear: "Do you have any secret recipe to win, can't you hide it from me?" ”
Lin Mei lowered her head and smiled, seeing that the others were still a little far away, she whispered to her: "If you believe me, you will definitely make enough money." ”
Seeing that the county lord was only two hundred, he reminded him heartily, "If you don't make money next time, it's a pity not to make money with silver, and the opportunity is just like this." ”
The county lord of Jiaoyue thought about it, ten times the odds, if the red apricot building, it must be impossible to have such high odds. As soon as he bit down, "Zhuangtou, I'll give you another thousand taels, no, two thousand taels." ”
After speaking, he straightened his body, feeling that he was very arrogant, although he couldn't compare Lin Mei's five thousand taels, but this was also a lot of money.
Lin Mei saw that the man who followed the trend and bet just now was peeping here, and said with a smile with some kindness: "Brother Tai has followed the trend all the way, would you like to bet with you this time?" ”
The man didn't feel embarrassed when he saw through it, maybe it was because of the lot of flesh on his face, and he bared his teeth and said: "The arrogance of the son, the five-body throw to the ground that Shi admires, but this red apricot building, I have never heard of it, isn't this a waste of money?" ”
Xiang Liu, who was even on the side, was the first person to pay attention to him, and he couldn't stand it anymore, so he hurriedly said: "Then you are free, don't follow us anymore." ”
The man's eyes rolled, thinking that he had won back the principal by relying on these two offspring, not to mention, there were fifty taels more, it was better to sell personal favors and make friends, "Then I'll give fifty taels, don't be too little, let's make friends." ”
Lin Mei laughed twice, but didn't reply to him, turned her head and asked Xiang Liu: "I just said it, if we win, we will divide your silver, I just won two hundred taels of silver in the front hall, and here are twenty taels of silver, you can take it." ”
Xiang Liu's intuition told him that this person was not an ordinary person, and he had the intention to make friends, so he hurriedly said: "Being able to know Childe is a blessing for Xiang Liu, if Childe doesn't dislike it, he will mix with Childe when he goes out to Xiang Liu, and Childe is optimistic about Hongxinglou, and Xiang Liu naturally follows Childe, and there is no second heart." ”
"Zhuangtou, write a gambling note quickly, I also bought Hongxing Building, there are a total of sixty taels of silver here."
At this time, the head of the village felt that this group of people had gone crazy, sighed, and the silver sent to the door was unfortunately unable to enter his money bag. With a wave of his hand, he wrote four bets.
"The gambling slip is the only certificate, keep it by yourself, if you lose it, you will not recognize it." Although the chance of winning is slim, the head of the village still makes the final advice.
Lin Mei looked at the gambling slip written clearly, and if she won, she would be compensated ten times the price, which was 50,000 taels of silver, and she was very excited when she thought about it, and carefully kept the gambling slip.
Lin Mei didn't want to continue to stay, so as not to make people angry, and she wanted to see the wealth: "Let's go, find a place to eat." ”
After speaking, he glanced at the two people behind him, but he still wanted to follow, so he took the county lord and left in stride.
The two who fell behind glanced at each other and hurriedly shouted, "Childe, wait for me." ”
When the guard saw the group of people leaving in a hurry, he inquired about the head of the bank, who was in charge of the gambling game.
What else could the head of the village say, shook his head, and said: Crazy, a group of crazy people.
