Chapter Seventy-Three: Gambling Debts Must Be Repaid
Alice, the female lord of Sanshan County, couldn't help but say, "The Great Lord is not all about luck. Although I live in Sanshan County, I also know the reputation of the Great Lord in the royal capital. You are the most famous mathematician and writer in the kingdom. ”
When the other lords heard this, they couldn't help but think in their hearts: mathematics and literature are useful, and being a lord means getting more people, more land, more money, and more weapons.
After speaking, Alice asked, "Lord Lord, what do you do on weekdays besides teaching the princess to read?" Writing or doing arithmetic? ”
Mei Yi was a little embarrassed and said: "No, I like to gamble, and I will often go to the casino to gamble a few times if I have nothing to do." ”
As soon as those big lords heard this, they became interested, and they came over one after another to gamble with the big lord to help the fun. Before Mei Yi could speak, the lord of Yorkshire, Rafat, said: "Since you are playing with the great lord, the stakes must be bigger." Your Excellency, do you think it's okay? ”
Mei Yi smiled and said, "Yes, but you have to let me, if you lose too much, Master Katrina won't let me go." ”
Ghani, Rafat, Dort, and the rest of the dozen or so lords who came up agreed with their mouths, but they thought to themselves: Don't think that we will just let you go, and when you can't afford to lose, you can't let us do it on the spot!
Who cares what kind of lord you are? Besides, you're an empty shell lord! If you owe gambling debts, even if you go to the king to complain, the king will not be able to protect you!
Zela, Lord of Black Butterfly, took out a sieve from his bosom and offered to bet on the size of the points. After Mei Yi agreed, he turned his mind again and said: "That's it, in order to avoid some things being unclear, we will take out all the money, and if we can't get the money, we will mortgage it on the spot, so that we can play him with confidence." What do you think? ”
Paipa, the lord of Bailu County, shouted, "Okay, good, no one is allowed to leave halfway!" Whoever goes is not qualified to be a lord! ”
The eighteen male lords of Garni, Rafat, Dort, and Zela patted their chests and said, "Then naturally, damn it, if anyone can't afford to lose, they will be slaves to the winners!" ”
They said while squinting at Mei Yi over and over again, how could Mei Yi not know their thoughts, and said boldly: "Okay, I like such a straightforward man!" Mary, don't go to the table, notarize it for us, write down what everyone just said, and then everyone sign it. I'll count you in if you win. Liuye, Flynn, Caterina, Evelyn, Walter, you all come and play, follow me to bet! ”
After thinking about it, he said again, "Mary, bring me the account book of the lord's mansion!" ”
In front of everyone, Mei Yi opened the account book of the lord's mansion, and as soon as she opened it, everyone, including Mei Yi, took a breath of cool air. He didn't expect that although he didn't have much cash, he had a lot of wealth - 1.2 million hectares of land, all the rivers, forests, and mines in Sombra City and the surrounding twenty-one counties, and most of the shops in Sombra City were owned by him.
Mei Yi reminded the stunned lords and said, "Lords, I have shown my sincerity, every time I lose, Mary will immediately assign the corresponding land, rivers, mines, and buildings to you." What about you? You won't talk to me in the open air, will you? Then I won't play. ”
Goth, the Great Lord of Wild Wolf County, hurriedly said, "Lord Lord, how can we be fooled? In this way, my lords, we are on par with the lords, and the money we lose should also be based on our accounts, and we will sign and pledge and deliver on the spot. ”
All the lords said yes.
No matter how well Illya cultivated, sweat was dripping down, and her thin white neck and long hair on her forehead were wet. Liuye, Flynn, and Caterina all surrounded her, and said anxiously, "Mary, is the Great Lord crazy?" Is he trying to lose Sombra? If that were the case, the king would not spare him! Hurry up and persuade him! ”
Illya stiffened her head and said, "I'll do my best." ”
She walked up to Mei Yi, said a few words and came back, and said to Liuye and the others, "The big lord said that if we dare to block his wealth again, he will be polite to us. It's over, and now he can't listen to what we say. By the way, Liuye, he also asked, didn't Liuxi's mother prepare money for him? Hurry up and get it to him! ”
Liuye almost exploded in anger, and said hatefully: "This is the good uncle that our lady fancies!" Originally, it was intended to be used for emergency when he really couldn't hold on, but forget it, give it to him, if he loses it all, we will leave! ”
The gamblers at the other tables were also eager to try, but they didn't dare to join in the fun with the lords. Just as they were swallowing their saliva, Mei Yi stretched out an angel's hand to them, "Come on, come on, come here if you want to play!" There are no fathers and sons in the casino, let alone subordinates. At the table, we're brothers! ”
The gamblers shouted "Long live the Great Lord" in excitement, and they put several tables together to form a huge open-air gaming table.
Meiyi sat in the village, the temporary dealer shook the dice with a bamboo tube, everyone pricked up their ears to listen to the sound of the dice, as if they could hear the points from it, but in fact, it was just the same as selling watermelons, shooting east and west, and finally picking a good-looking one to take away.
Mei Yi looked indifferent.
The elves and goblin warriors guarding the door and around saw that their lord was so ignorant of self-love, and one by one they were angry, and they dared not speak out, and they thought to themselves: When you lose all your essence, we will desperately rescue you, and this is not a violation of the trust of the master.
It's just that we were really blind at the time, and we actually volunteered to follow you, thinking that you could make a career. As a result, I didn't expect you to fall so quickly, which is really chilling.
When the dice settled, Meiyi said to Illya: "Bet 100,000 gold coins and buy big!" He said to the rest of the gamblers: "If it is less than that, it will automatically quit, and I have no interest in playing with children!" ”
After saying that, he put up the note of 100,000 gold coins issued by Illya and signed by himself. The other lords and gamblers did the same, and a few of them who couldn't scrape together the money left the game.
Illya's heart jumped up, almost daring to look at the result, and when she saw the thirteen points, she let out a long breath, and sighed in her heart: Goddess bless, Meiyi finally won.
Meiyi's 100,000 gold coins suddenly turned into 2 million gold coins.
These gamblers in front of them are not afraid of losing, they are afraid that Meiyi will not gamble with them, and shout for the dealer to shake quickly. After the dealer hurriedly shook the dice, Mei Yi suddenly slapped a note of 500,000 gold coins on the gambling table and shouted, "Small! ”
The little player couldn't keep up at all, so he had to retreat. Those fanatical lords were infected, and they pushed out the notes in hand, and the voices of "big" and "small" rose one after another.
As a result, Meiyi's 500,000 gold coins became 8.5 million gold coins.
The lords have been thinking about letting you win a few games first and then killing you without leaving a piece of armor, but they found that they couldn't win anything, Mei Yi has been winning ten in a row, and all kinds of notes in front of her are stacked thickly.
Some of the lesser and unlucky lords were no longer able to bear it, and the amount of land was no longer written on the note.
Illya and the others all opened their mouths wide. Those elves and elven warriors also thought to themselves: What is going on? Who is our great lord, could it be that he is a relative of the goddess, and the goddess favors him so much?
