Jin Mingcheng. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

After days of starvation, Ace and Rozzie finally set foot in the human settlement.

Walking in Jin Ming City, the two of them invariably remembered looking for books, although he was lazy, money-obsessed, and greedy...... However, in the days he spent with Mishu, he never let the two of them go hungry!!

No food in the desert is no food, out of sight, out of mind, out of mind, and endure it, but the two penniless people in the city can see the food around but can't eat it, and this taste is not good.

"Commander, think of a way!"

"Why don't I give you the head of the regiment, how about you take care of my meal?"

Joke aside, Ace - should be called Jack now, racking his brains to figure out what to do. The things related to mercenaries are all placed in the Royal Wind Academy, and it is not feasible to make money by taking on tasks, but it is okay to be a coolie, but now it is not the past to be a mercenary to have the backbone of a mercenary.

Fortunately, although the city is poor and backward, there are quite a few people living in it! The reason is the same, because its geographical location makes it one of the important smuggling bases in various countries.

The smugglers come and go in a hurry, and they are naturally not picky about "living" and "eating", and they care more about spiritual enjoyment than appetite. These were all things that Jack and the Jacks had only learned after following a few ruffians to "borrow" some money from them—the place where they were now standing was the door to the Quadrangle's Casino.

Everything fell into Jack's eyes, leaving only the evaluation of "corrupt, extremely corrupt", which of course did not rule out his jealousy.

"We don't even have a gambling book, what's the use of coming here?"

"Actually, I hate it here, too, and it's the dealer who wins in the end! ”

Jack glanced at the gambling table, pulled Rob Luck to make some tricks, and met the casino steward.

"Two little brothers, what are you doing with me?" said the fat-headed and big-eared Bazha Xia, drinking wine.

"I don't like to talk in circles, so I'm here to talk about cooperation with you today. ”

"Cooperation?" Bazasha's eyes widened as he watched the two of them widen suddenly, "Colorful faces, skulls on the chest!

"Boss, you just found out!!"

Bazha Xia waved his hand, picked up his wine glass again, and said, "Well, we are running a casino, and we don't want to be involved in the mercenary's business." ”

"No, no, no, we're looking for you because of 'gambling'. ”

"Oh, then, we can talk," Bazhasha's eyes widened again, "how did you find here?

"Boss, you only know!!"

Next, Jack said his plan, that is, he will be the trust, he will make a lot of money first, and the red-eyed gamblers will definitely follow the trend to bet, as long as Jack deliberately loses in the end, the casino can make a big profit! If Jack does not do as agreed, the casino can also detain Jack on the grounds of a thousand, there is a bid from the Bermus mercenary group, and the lives of the Jacks are still worth a lot of Qiongbei, no matter what, the casino will not lose, and the remuneration of the Jacks only needs to be one percent of the profit.

Of course, it's okay if Jack doesn't cooperate with the casino, but Jack has his own concerns, he has already provoked the behemoth of the Bermus mercenary group, and now he is just asking for money, there is no need to set up a new enemy, what Hades is better than a little ghost is difficult to say Rob Ruqi doesn't understand, but who can say for sure what will happen in the future? If it is critical, it is not good to jump out of a clown and ruin his own business.

Bazasha was obviously impressed by Jack, and the casinos used to be mainly based on fraud, and this idea of "trust" was quite interesting! As for that little bit of unpleasantness, businessmen just need to make money.

When Jack and Bazasha were talking about the details of the cooperation, another group of people came to the Sifang Casino, and from the upright posture and well-trained movements of the entourage, it can be seen that they are not ordinary people, and some knowledgeable people even recognized the handsome man who led the way at a glance - Presto, the third prince of Dongzhao.

"What do you want to play, sir?"

When Jack and the others entered, no one cared, and as soon as Presto entered, many waiters rushed to serve him.

I heard that there is a new slave business in the Sifang Gambling House, and I don't know what kind of slave trade there is. ”

The waiter was stunned for a moment, and then he smiled and said, "The guests are so interesting! A casino is a casino, how can there be a slave trade?"

"Are you the boss here? Or are you sure? Or do you think we don't have the money to buy slaves?"

Seeing that the momentum was not right, the organic spirit man hurried to inform Bazhasha.

"Oh, who should I be! It turns out that the distinguished guest is coming to the door, this is really unusual, my noble third and father-in-law?" Bazha Xia said more and more he felt that something was wrong, "Wait, wouldn't I be exposing myself by calling myself like this?"

"Boss, don't say it yourself!!"

"Well, this boy, are you going to the wrong place to buy slaves, or are you here to find trouble?"

"Bazhaxia, you are here, it seems that this matter cannot be wrong!"

"Everybody continue to clam, I'll play alone with this son. ”

Presto got up and followed Bazasha, and the Jacks also got Qiongbei to start working, and he chose the size of the bet he had seen before, which was also the easiest way to gamble.

It's good to work with a casino, if it's the dealer who wins more and loses less every time, some people will inevitably suspect that there is a problem, but if it's the other way around, hehe, you can't count Qiongbei and who cares about it. Of course, Jack's acting skills are also very important, so that everyone can believe that there is Qiongbei to earn by following him.

"It's nothing more than a casino in a small place!!!

The person in charge of the cup also cooperated: "Sir, you must know how to be in moderation! Our casino will not refuse any guests, but outside the casino-"

"What do you mean! Look down on us! You don't have to worry about Lao Tzu's business, open quickly, open quickly. ”

"Hmph, I don't know if I'm alive or dead! ”

Although the small actions of the casino have been seen by most people, but how many people who dare to bet on this part are afraid of things? Besides, it is not himself who takes the lead, at most he casts a sympathetic eye on Jack, but the words of the cup holder are not unreasonable, and many people feel that they will accept it when they see that they can play with Jack again.

Needless to say, the ending is that Jack and Rob Ruch pat their butts and leave, not taking a cloud with them. After quietly receiving the payment, Presto and his party also came out of the casino, and the sharp-eyed Jack noticed that there was one more person in their team.

It's not that the sharp eyes don't mean this, they were all men when they came, and after they came out, there were women mixed in it, and anyone could see it, but the woman they had seen, it was the soy sauce girl who was with the Bermus mercenary group at the time.

"Looks like there's trouble!"

"Well, that temperament should be a soldier, I didn't expect the Bemoth mercenary group to have such a relationship. ”

Sometimes you don't look for trouble, but trouble will find you!

Presto noticed the two of them just now, but it had nothing to do with him, but at this moment, after talking to Bazasha, he knew that they were harmless to him, that is, there was a possibility of being friends.

"Hey, we should be the second time we met, meeting is fate, are you interested in chatting a few words?"

If you retire at this time, I'm afraid that people will be underestimated! Jack straightened his chest and said happily: "Okay!"

In a small hotel in the middle of nowhere, ordering a table of dishes and a few jars of wine, Presto explained his intentions.

Since ancient times, around the glorious kingship, there has always been some visible and invisible darkness. Now King Dongzhao has a total of eighteen children under his knees, and King Dongzhao chose the former between Liyan and Lide, Presto has no objection to this, but others do not think so.

It is also human nature that the second prince, Sail, the prince of Dongzhao, always thinks that his younger brother is the greatest enemy of his succession to the throne, and he wants to get rid of him as soon as possible; some of Presto's subordinates also think that their masters are only temporarily tolerated, and they will eventually rise to prominence; of course, the other princes will not sit idly by, and everyone keeps making small moves.

One of them was unbearable to Presto, and he actually installed Liang Cheng beside him, and then used this to provoke the prince to officially start a war with himself.

"You can't have the intention of harming people, but you can't have the heart of guarding against people!" Presto pointed at Liao Qi, "Her brother is the eyeliner I arranged among the princes, and it just so happened that Liao Qi was sent by the prince to carry out an investigation mission, and the final result was ......"

"So, you have nothing to do with the Bermuth mercenary group, it's just the mercenary her brother found to get her to you. ”

And there has been no news of Liao Qi for so long, I'm afraid he is already more than lucky. ”

"Why are you telling us this?"

"I need some new faces, and you dare to provoke such an enemy for your brother, so I like your guts. ”

Jack thought for a moment and said slowly, "You want me to play Infernal Affairs?"

"None, Mamichi?"

"It's a hassle to explain!" Jack said, putting his chopsticks down, "Last question, why should I help you?"

"Aren't you mercenaries?

"Aha, that's right! ”

"Happy working together!"

Helping Presto was something to do or not for Jack, but Presto's last words gave Jack no reason to refuse. Or it can also be seen as a test for Jack to Presto, after all, Jingge is on the prince's side, helping him indicates that he will face Jingge in the future, anyway, Jingge is kind to both Jack, if Presto uses bullshit reasons such as Qiongbei, righteousness, etc., Jack will definitely refuse.

And it is also good for himself to help Presto, so that he can catch the two lines closest to the center of power in Dongzhao at the same time, so Rob Ruqi did not express his opinion.

"You don't have anything to say?"

"Presto, although I have been with him for a very short time, I can feel from him the spirit of defeat but not discouragement, courage but not chaos, softness but not weakness, tenacity and unyielding," Rob Ruch smiled, "Am I already so powerful in looking at people?"

Jack chuckled too, there are always some people, their charm is unstoppable.

But then again, neither their purpose nor what Presto commanded can be achieved overnight, anyway, Jack and the others have ten years, although it is not long but not short, and the road is still very long, so let's start with the horse!

After separating from Presto, the two Jacks set out on their way to Moonsong City.
