Chapter 160: Nobleman

Those who dare to come to Duyun Tower to play here have seen the world.

Although there are no clear regulations, according to the established tradition, those who participate in the Dusk Cloud Club are generally young sons who have not received fame around the weak crown.

Some of them have already taken over some family businesses, and more of them are studying in the academy with monthly rules.

Compared with the ladies, the gentlemen who often go out to socialize are still quite rich, and the private houses that often participate in gambling and trading are even larger.

But even so, for these young men, a thousand taels was a huge amount.

Even the young masters of the merchants, who had several shop ticket numbers around the high platform, could not bet 1,000 taels in the first game of the morning.

After all, it's a bet to win or lose.

It's not a competition for the Oiran.

If you lose, you will be a real empty of people and money, and you will not necessarily be louder if you take a thousand taels of silver.

"This is really amazing," Nian Huazang looked at the chaotic scene downstairs because of this sky-high bet, and looked at Mu Kezhi with a smile, "Your Mu family's Duyun Tower seems to be a hidden dragon and crouching tiger today." ”

Mu Kezhi, who was just about to place a bet, put his hand holding the wine glass back on the table, frowning thoughtfully.

"Kezhi, who is the first noble person in the Dizi Pavilion?" Li Wenyao looked at the gamblers who were excited because of the high bets, and a trace of uneasiness flashed in his heart, and asked Mu Kezhi.

At first glance, the high bet looks like lifting the little girl, but in the double bet, the more you bet, the more you lose if the little girl loses, the more you lose after the double.

I don't know if I thought the person who bet was trying to trap her.

After all, a son with a high stakes of 1,000 taels and an average family background will directly choose to abandon the game.

"I don't know." Mu Kezhi looked at the audience expressionlessly, "The people in the Dizi Pavilion were arranged by my eldest brother. ”

"Big Brother of Memory?" Li Wenyao sighed in his heart.

Compared with Mu Kezhi, who has been famous in the township since he was a child, Mu Yizhi, the eldest young master of the Mu family, is not so famous.

But in fact, most of the Mu family's property is taken care of by this Mu Da Shao.

Compared with Mu Kezhi, who is used to being the shopkeeper, Mu Yizhi, the eldest young master of the Mu family, is old, serious, and has a wide range of travels, which is unfathomable.

Li Wenyao has been a little afraid of him since he was a child.

The girl on the stage stood quietly, looking like she had no intention of stopping.

Li Wenyao's face was dyed with a hint of solemnity, and he looked at Mu Kezhi, "You called the person, you have to watch it." ”

Mu Kezhi smiled and said freely, "It's okay, let's play, she may lose, and after a thousand taels, the master can still wrap her ......"

Before he finished speaking, Duan Haochu, who had been sitting on the side and drinking silently, stood up.

Because he has been too quiet as the most powerful person, the other people in the Tianzi Pavilion have looked at him.

Duan Haochu picked up the wine glass he had drunk and turned the bottom of the glass towards the waiter.

"Bet on Miss Zhu Jiu of the British Mansion for one thousand and one taels."

He said quietly.

At this time, the waiter standing closest also changed his face.

The waiter standing at the door was stunned for a moment, glanced at Duan Haochu in surprise, and saw that the man in front of him had no intention of taking it back, and hesitantly opened the curtain and shouted downstairs.

"A noble person in Tianzi Pavilion bets on Miss Zhu Jiu of the British Mansion one thousand and one taels!"

At this moment, it was like a new ingredient had been put into the boiling hot oil, and the already noisy audience was even more applauded.

"This, what is this? Are the nobles of the Tianzi Pavilion and the Dizi Pavilion bidding? ”

"Even if it's only one tael taller, that's a thousand taels!"

"Has this little girl offended some nobleman? If she loses, it won't be enough to sell her! ”

At this time, even the sons of the people who were sitting in place leisurely drinking tea and drinking were shocked, and they all stood in front of the window and discussed in surprise.

Looking at the slender girl standing still in the center of the storm, Li Wenyao's face became more and more difficult to look at, he looked at Duan Haochu, who was sitting down and pouring a new glass of wine and drinking slowly, and asked stubbornly.

"Master Duan, she's just a fourteen-year-old girl, you make such a high bet......"

Duan Haochu put down his wine glass and looked at the young descendant in front of him for a long time.

"What's wrong? If she feels that the stakes are too big to bear the pressure, she will give up on herself. The man's eyes were indistinguishable from anger, "Why is Li Gongzi so bothered?" ”

The man's words were flat, but the tone was no longer commonplace, as a superior person who had been immersed in officialdom for many years, the man's momentum of not being angry and arrogant was quietly brewing in the air, and there was an invisible pressure released from him.

Li Wenyao choked and looked out the window, he couldn't see her expression, but he knew that she must be the same as when she answered on the lawn of Wuqu Yinping Peak in Ziyang Academy, and she stayed where she was.

This girl looks easy-going, but in fact she is arrogant.

"The little girl's family is always thin-skinned," Li Wenyao said with difficulty, "Even if the pressure is high, I'm afraid I'm embarrassed to withdraw from the game......"

Duan Haochu squinted his eyes and stared at Li Wenyao, under his own power, the young man's face was already slightly red, but his eyes were extremely bright, revealing a straightforward light.

Looking at the young man who insisted on fighting against his own might, Duan Haochu's eyes were slightly dark, but this gloomy color stayed for too short, and soon the man returned to his previous calm appearance.

Duan Haochu looked away, raised his wine glass and took a sip and said, "It's not me who started this game, even if I let her go, there are others." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, the trembling shouts of the waiter came from outside the window.

"A noble person in the Dizi Pavilion added one thousand and one hundred taels to Miss Zhu Jiu of the British Mansion!"

At this time, the people in the Tianzi Pavilion couldn't sit still.

"Did your sister offend anyone?" Nian Huazang walked to Zhu Rong's side and said with a smile, "I don't know if this elder brother has brought enough silver tickets when he goes out?" ”

Zhu Rong's complexion is very white, so he can't tell if it has become a little whiter, the little boy sighed, "I don't know, I think this noble man is really optimistic about my sister." ”

"This brother is really generous." Song Yuxue sat beside Duan Zhiyun and smiled sweetly at Zhu Rong, "I was really shocked, I didn't expect someone to make such a big bet," the girl stroked her chest, "I just wanted to make a joke with Yingying, I didn't expect it to turn into such a big gamble." ”

"But," Song Yuxue smiled at Zhu Rong, "I'm relieved that Yingying has such a generous brother as you, since you said that you can play with your sister, you must not withdraw the game no matter how big the bet is, right?" ”

Zhu Rong's hands were secretly clenched under the table, but his face was still calm and light.

"It's up to my sister, and I'm happy with my sister," he said.

Everyone turned their attention to Zhu Luan on the high platform.

The master of ceremonies standing next to the girl on the high platform had recovered from the shock, and looked at Zhu Luan, who was standing quietly in place in front of him, and asked.

"Miss, are you still playing?" He thought that the little girl would stop in the first round of bidding, but he didn't expect her to speak for a long time, and the master of ceremonies couldn't help but ask.

I want to talk about "Yingluan" with more like-minded people, pay attention to "excellent reading literature" on WeChat, talk about life, and find confidants~
