Chapter 308 Acquaintance at the Casino

In fact, at the beginning, Wang Quan didn't know the origin of the jade pendant, but he could probably see the good and the bad, after all, this kind of thing has been done a lot, and he always has to have some eyesight, so as not to sell things cheaply.

If you take an adventure, you can't end up with what you deserve.

He dared to open his mouth and say two thousand taels of silver......

At this time, Guo Min'an faintly understood in his heart that if Wang Quan and Xu Dazhuang really never knew each other before, or if they didn't know each other deeply, Wang Quan wouldn't hand over the jade pendant to Xu Dazhuang to deal with.

Two thousand taels of silver was casually given to an unfamiliar person, and he clearly told people that if it wasn't two thousand taels of silver, he wouldn't be afraid that Xu Dazhuang would run away with the jade pendant?

Xu Dazhuang has no one at home, he is really alone, if he runs away, he will not even have a place to look for it.

has such valuable things in hand, when you leave Qizhou City, find a random place, let alone two thousand taels, it is one thousand taels of silver, Xu Dazhuang sold the jade pendant, and he can live this life freely.

When Guo Min'an came back to his senses, he stared at Xu Dazhuang intently, the curvature of his mouth rose again, and he called him: "I'm afraid, you still haven't told the truth, right?" ”

Xu Dazhuang swallowed involuntarily, and his throat tightened for a while.

In fact, he has never been to the government hall, although he is a person who does not do his job on weekdays, but the savings left by his father and mother are enough for him to use, and he can't do some stealing chickens and dogs, at most make a few fox friends and dog friends, eat and drink during the day, or go shopping around the building, but he doesn't go all day long, he hasn't squandered to that point, so he has almost never been in trouble, and naturally he will not be taken to the government hall for questioning.

This is such a big time, he really underestimated this prefect, and also underestimated these officials in the court.

After a few words, the prefect sensed that something was wrong.

Xu Dazhuang knelt there and subconsciously touched the tip of his nose with his backhand.

Guo Minan has seen a lot of people who have committed crimes, often when his heart is weak, he just puts his hand in front of his face, but he can't block it on his face, so he can only make some small movements, which are extremely unconscious, but in his eyes, that is, he has a weak heart, he wants to explain, he wants to tell the truth, but he still has some hesitation and struggle in his heart.

So he cleared his throat: "You just shouted that you were wronged, asked the official to investigate clearly, and returned you to be innocent and fair, saying that this matter has nothing to do with you, you are only entrusted by others, loyal to people, or for the benefit of the two hundred taels of silver, you are willing to take care of this matter for the king, and you don't know anything about the rest." Xu Dazhuang, these words of yours, the master will write them down, how to check, the official also knows in his heart, people say that the clear person is self-clear, if you are innocent, the palace will naturally return you justice sooner or later, let you go home, but if you are in the public court and don't report it, then it's a different matter. ”

Guo Min'an said, smacking his tongue, and looked at him for a long time: "Since you are innocent, it is Wang Quan who has involved you so far, why do you cover it up for him?" I'm afraid there is another article here, but you didn't know the origin of Yu Pei and partnered with him? ”

"It's not!" Xu Dazhuang raised his head, his eyes were extremely round, and he retorted very quickly, and shouted out a word of no.

Guo Minan just raised his eyebrows high, did not interrupt him, and did not answer his follow-up words.

He's waiting.

Waiting for Xu Dazhuang's inner struggle to pass, he is willing to explain honestly.

Sure enough, as he expected, Xu Dazhuang lowered his head after shouting that voice, and raised his head again: "The villain and Wang Quan met in a gambling house in the city. ”

Gambling house, gambling house again.

Guo Min'an's face changed slightly, and he remembered what Tian Xiang had just said: "You start from the beginning." ”

Xu Dazhuang sighed: "It was about three months ago, the villain came into the city to buy things, passing by the Wangxing gambling house, I don't know what happened that day, as if he was in the middle of an evil spirit." Adult, you can inquire about it, although the villain is idle, lazy to do, but the villain knows what not to touch, although the father and mother left the villain with silver, and sold the shop to get a sum of money, but the villain's family was not a rich and noble family in the past, that bit of silver, the villain is honest, and he will live this life, but if he comes outside, no matter how good he gambles, the little silver is not enough to see at all. ”

As he spoke, he shook his head and sighed: "That was the first time the villain entered the gambling house, and since then, he has never been able to get out." ”

"So a few months ago, you started to go to Thirty Miles from time to time to let him die, also because you owe gambling debts?"

Xu Dazhuang nodded hurriedly: "At the beginning, the villain didn't owe much, a few taels of silver, a dozen taels of silver, and there are some valuable things left at home, and it is famous for being fair in price for thirty miles, and the villain felt at that time that the things at home were just a thought to keep, so it was better to take them and put them to death, exchange them for some silver, pay off the gambling debts, and then gamble, maybe they all won back, but I didn't expect ......."

He didn't say what he said later, and he didn't have the face to say it again.

Guo Minan knows that this gambling can not be contaminated, originally he just took office in the first two years, once moved the idea of banning the operation of gambling houses, but helplessly the current atmosphere is like this, when he was an official in Waifu, gambling houses are also open everywhere, to say banned, it is not a day or two can be done, it may not be of any help in political performance, maybe it will cause a commotion to himself, dare to open a gambling house, who has no family background behind it, no idea of power and reliance, he wants to ban the operation of gambling houses, and he is not guarded for a while, offending people who should not be offended, Instead, he wanted to ruin his future, so this matter was not resolved later.

So Guo Minan has always known that gambling on this thing is really not a good thing, and he can't quit if he touches it, in fact, it's just Xu Dazhuang's mind.

I was unwilling to lose money in someone's gambling house for a while, and I always felt that I could win it back, maybe I could win it back, but in the end, how many people can really make a fortune from this? What's more, aren't they all lost and bankrupt and became poor and white?

Guo Min'an sighed silently, and took advantage of the situation to take over Xu Dazhuang's unfinished words: "It's just that I didn't expect it to fall deeper and deeper, you went to Thirty Miles to put it away several times, but you just barely filled this hole, but you are unwilling, you could still live a chic life, but suddenly it became like this, you always want to win back the silver in Wangxing Casino, and Wang Quan, that's when I found you, you two also met at that time, right?" ”

Xu Dazhuang said yes, and his voice was much duller than before: "The villain later learned that Wang Quan was a frequent visitor to Wangxing Casino, and he gambled in that gambling house for several years, back and forth, winning and losing, but he still lost more silver." At the beginning, the villain went to Thirty Miles for the last time, and took the silver to the gambling house to pay off the gambling debts, and more than 30 taels of silver have not been paid off, and the gambling house also has the rules of the gambling house, and the Wangxing Gambling House is also polite, and gave the villain a month for a period, as long as the remaining silver is returned within a month, it will be fine, otherwise the villain's hands will not be able to keep. ”

He said as if he still had palpitations, and shuddered: "Thirty taels of silver, it's not much, but it's a lot less, the villain has lost three hundred taels in Wangxing, and everything in the family is valuable, and it's all taken and put away, and the rest are not worth much, that is, they all go to be, I'm afraid they can barely make up thirty taels of silver, but this silver has all paid off the gambling debts, and the villain's life will not be able to go on......"

Guo Min'an's face was gloomy, and his face was blue: "You want to enter the gambling house yourself, no one forces you to gamble, and you can't afford to pay off your gambling debts, do you think about it, your life will not go on?" ”

"The villain really didn't think it would become like this at first-" He dragged his voice and looked up, only to find that Guo Min'an was not very interested in these things, but more mourned his misfortune, as if he hated the word gambling.

Xu Dazhuang understood.

How many gambling debts he owes and how much money he loses has nothing to do with this prefect, and the prefect can still listen to him patiently say these nonsense, just to find out what is going on between him and Wang Quan.

What the prefect was interested in was what he said later......

Xu Dazhuang pursed his lips slightly, and swallowed all the grievances and complaints that had just come to his mouth and were almost blurted out back into his stomach.

When he raised his head again, he changed the conversation: "Maybe the villain was really depressed all day long, and there were often people in the gambling house, in fact, everyone knew what was going on with each other, so Wang Quan found the villain, and it was he who took the initiative to help the villain return the more than 30 taels of silver, and about four or five days after returning the silver, he took the jade pendant to find the villain, saying that he knew that the villain was having a hard time, and sold the jade pendant for him, so he gave the villain 200 taels of silver, and got a good one in the future. As long as the villain can do it well this time, he will hand it over to the villain, and everyone will have money to earn together, and life will be better. ”

Guo Min sneered with peace of mind.

Sure enough, it was similar to what he guessed, anyway, he first won people's hearts and made friends with others, so he was willing to take out his things and ask others to do things for him, and he was not afraid that people would run away with things.

Wang Quan's hand is not bad.

More than 30 taels of silver were given up, and in exchange for Xu Dazhuang, he was dead set on him and treated him as a confidant.

"Won't you ask him about the origin of this jade pendant?"

Since he is a friend, there is nothing difficult to ask, where did such a good thing come from, isn't Xu Dazhuang curious at all?

Xu Dazhuang shook his head at Guo Minan and said no, Guo Minan twisted his eyebrows slightly, and cast his inquiring gaze over, Xu Dazhuang saw it, and replied to him again: "The villain also said just now, there are some things that don't need to be asked at all." In fact, at that time, the villain suspected that maybe he stole it from somewhere, and most likely, it was stolen from the Wei family. In fact, such a person with unclean hands and feet really shouldn't get along for a long time, but at that time, the villain was desperate, and two hundred taels of silver was ...... for the villain."

He said as he swallowed his saliva again: "The villain has always wanted to win back the lost silver, but it is three hundred taels less before and after, and if he wants to win it back, he needs capital first, and second, where is it so easy?" But if you sell a piece of jade pendant for him, you can get two hundred taels of silver, and the villain is indeed tempted. Coupled with Wang Quan's righteousness before, he repaid the silver for the villain, and never mentioned the matter of repaying the money, the villain felt that even if he had unclean hands and feet and stole the things of the master's family to sell, it was just to live a better life, and the villain just didn't know, that's it. ”

"Yes, what's more, a few months ago, you went to Thirty Li Dang several times, so when Wang Quan handed over the jade pendant to you and said that it was not two thousand taels of silver, you immediately thought of Thirty Li Dang." Guo Minan leaned back in the chair, "Do you think that since he dares to open that price for this thing, it must be worth that price, maybe it will be higher, you get thirty miles, and the young man recognizes you, this deal can be negotiated on the spot, you got two hundred taels of silver for nothing, and you don't make much effort, it's really a beautiful thing." It's just that the business has not been negotiated since then, which is unexpected. ”

He lowered his head again and said yes, in fact, everything was so clear to the prefect, Xu Dazhuang sighed again: "There have been many days when things have been going back and forth, and things are like being smashed into the hands of the villain, and the villain is anxious, after all, Wang Quan said that this time it was done well, and if there is such a thing in the future, it will be handed over to the villain." He is really generous, two thousand taels of silver, one mouth will be given to the villain two hundred taels, the villain is also afraid that he will think that the villain is not good to do, there will be such a good thing in the future, and he will not think about the villain, so he saw Wang Quan several times, and he showed a deep apology, but he came to comfort the villain, saying that this thing is worth a lot of money, and two thousand taels of silver is indeed not easy to negotiate, and he is not in a hurry to make a move, take his time. ”

Speaking of which, Wang Quan is really a humane person, he wants to sell the silver himself, but he is not in a hurry, and he turned his head to comfort Xu Dazhuang.

But......

Maybe Wang Quan's original intention was not to comfort him, but he was afraid that he would find things difficult and tricky, and the jade pendant would not be sold for two thousand taels of silver at all, so he took the jade pendant to run the pawnshop all day long, wasting his tongue, and in the end he got nothing, after a long time, he was unwilling to do it, and he left it alone, and Wang Quan had to spend another effort to find someone else to help.

This is why Wang Quan was relieved later, and almost took the jade pendant for more than 1,000 taels of silver?

"Later, didn't you almost give away the jade pendant for more than a thousand taels of silver? Is this also Wang Quansong's mouth, telling you to go? Or did you see that this thing couldn't go out, and you were afraid that the two hundred taels of silver would be lost, so you went to persuade the king to put the price out?
