Chapter 49: The Road to Rivalry is Narrow

As night fell, Chu Nan found a restaurant to live in, planning to report to Qingluan Academy early tomorrow morning.

After dinner, Chu Nan began to wander around Qingluan City, he was going to stay in Qingluan Academy for two years, so he naturally had to familiarize himself with the surrounding environment first.

Qingluan City is very large, in order to better understand the geographical location of the city, it is centered on the Governor's Palace, divided into five major urban districts, east, west, north, south, and middle, and the area of each urban area is several times that of a border city like Hatelicheng.

The location of Chu Nan is in the northern urban area, most of the foreign merchants gather in this urban area, and the various goods they bring are distributed here, so you can see all kinds of people in this urban area, and this is also the largest trade area in Qingluan City.

The place where the three sects and nine streams converge, the northern city is more chaotic than the other urban districts, and the number of patrols here is the largest, but the things that come out are still the most.

The uniform of the southern Chu border army also made no one provoke him without long eyes, and the fourth-level Xuanli Spear Nighthawk behind him could already prove that his strength was at least fourth-level Xuanli.

In Qingluan City, Xuanli guns are not allowed to be carried into the neighborhood, but officers at the level of joint commander are not among them.

Chu Nan strolled around with great interest, looking at the novelty things, he would stop to study them, and he would also taste the delicious snacks he had seen before.

On a Xuanli car in the distance, Zuo Xinyu watched Chu Nan holding a skewer of grilled fish and eating it with relish, while eating, she was still laughing with the beautiful shopkeeper, she was speechless and a little angry at the same time, the current Chu Nan is far from the image of treating her with anger.

At this time, a very ordinary middle-aged man opened the car door and sat in, and said respectfully: "What does the little county lord command?"

"Do you see that officer, I want him to be penniless, just leave him a pair of underwear. Zuo Xinyu pointed to Chu Nandao.

"The joint commander of the border army?" The middle-aged man frowned slightly, and then said: "The joint commander has a record in the Star Palace, and if something happens, it will alarm the inspector of the Star Palace." ”

"Didn't you listen to what I said? Who wants you to hurt him? You won't think of any other way? If you can't do such a trivial task, I don't think you need to do it. Zuo Xinyu said angrily, this is in her territory, if a border army commander can't deal with it, then what kind of county lord is she.

The middle-aged man hurriedly lowered his head and said, "The little county lord is angry, I will definitely find a way to do it." ”

Zuo Xinyu snorted coldly and said, "I'll see the results tomorrow." ”

Chu Nan didn't know that he had been targeted, and he was leisurely along the way, sometimes chatting with people, of course, most of the people he talked to were good-looking women.

The middle-aged man who had been hanging behind him was a little nerve-wracking, that is, he couldn't hurt him, and he wanted him to be penniless, and even his clothes were stripped off, which was not easy. 、

No matter, let's leave him penniless first.

So not long after, a street gambling stall appeared not far from Chu Nan, and a group of people surrounded this gambling stall to watch people gamble, and their faces were red with excitement.

"Haha, win again, boss, lose money. A shirtless young man laughed maniacally.

The boss, who looked a little obscene, reluctantly paid dozens of gold coins, and said unwillingly: "Come again, I don't believe you are so lucky." ”

"I'm not coming, I'm going to Bichi to have a handful. The young man got up and walked away.

"The boss had bad luck, and the brothers borrowed some money. A man of onlookers rushed to the side.

The seven or eight men pooled together ten gold coins for the man, and the man soon won a few handfuls in a row, and the ten gold coins became nearly a hundred.

At this time, Chu Nan had already walked over and stood next to him and watched with relish.

This gambling booth is not big, just a table with wheels, playing the size of the dice, and the wheel, the rules are very simple, it seems to be betting on luck.

However, Chu Nan was a frequent visitor to casinos in his previous life, and some casinos relied on superb gambling skills to dominate the game, and more relied on some small institutions, especially this kind of small street gambling stalls, which first gave you some sweetness, and then tempted you to increase the bets step by step, and finally lost so much that there were no underwear left.

It's just that this gambling stall is a little strange, and it turns out that the stall owner has been losing.

Chu Nan carefully observed the expressions of the crowd, and the corners of his mouth curled, revealing a hint of a smile.

"Don't play, I earned a hundred gold coins, haha, boss, you're so bad today, let's close the stall and go home." The man smiled and checked the gold coin bag in his hand, and said to a few people next to him: "Go, brothers, I invited you to Zuixianglou today." ”

A group of people laughed and walked away, leaving only the dejected stall owner.

The stall owner saw Chu Nan standing on the side, waved his hand and said, "This military master, I have bad luck today, I'm going to close the stall, you can come back tomorrow." ”

"It's okay, I'm just watching the fun. Chu Nan smiled, and was about to leave.

Three, two, one.

Chu Nan counted down in his heart, and sure enough, at this time, the stall owner stopped him: "This military master, I don't believe in this evil today, or let's gamble on two handfuls, and the first two can test the water without charging money." ”

"Really, boss, you're so moldy today, are you sure you want to open a stall?" Chu Nan turned around and smiled.

"Come on, come on, I'm out today, I'm willing to gamble and lose, as long as I lose, not a copper will be missing you. The stall owner patted his chest and said.

Chu Nan smiled, sat in front of the stall with a big golden knife, and said: "Then play it, but I doubt that you can afford to lose, in case I win a big one, what is the point if you have no money to lose?"

The stall owner seemed to be enraged, and slapped the table and said loudly: "This military master is the first to come to Qingluan City, you go and inquire about my reputation for being loyal to Pi, let's put it this way, how big is your bet, my old leather will accompany me to the end." ”

"How big can you gamble with a small gambling stall? Let's put it this way, I have a fire dragon horse, there is no market, you have no opinion on the price of three million gold coins, you can take three hundred gold coins to pay, I will play with you, by the way, my fire dragon horse is in the Jinyuan Restaurant, you can inquire." Chu Nan stared at the stall owner with a smile, seeing him show a look of shock and panic.

"You...... Wait, I'll call someone to check it out. The stall owner said to Chu Nandao, and suddenly ran not far away and pulled a bastard to whisper a few words, and the bastard immediately ran away.

Soon, on another street, the middle-aged man appeared in front of Zuo Xinyu, who was choosing accessories in a Duobaoge branch, and said a few words.

"Fire Dragon Pony, win me back. Zuo Xinyu's eyes lit up as soon as she heard the fire dragon horse, the fire dragon horse is definitely not a high-end mount for the upper nobles, she has had a few horses before, and they are all given away, she wants Chu Nan's fire dragon horse is nothing more than a little obsession, and after she came back, someone sent a few, but she didn't bother to take a look.
