Chapter 47 Gambling is not for losing (ask for recommendation collection)
After coming out of Huamanlou, Xie Naxin calculated the time, and there was still more than an hour before he left for duty. He took the opportunity to do something and separated from Lu Zhong and Zhao Siyan. After Xie Naxin left, he immediately went to the Lu family, and he knew very well that although Lu Cheng seemed to have handed over all the money to Lu Zhong, this kid must have kept a hand. Otherwise, last night, where would he get the money to buy wine and meat?
"Cheng'er?" Xie Naxin knocked on the door, and Lu Cheng quickly opened the door. But Xie Naxin didn't notice this, and now he was only thinking about how to open his mouth to borrow money.
Lu Cheng's current sensing power range is eight zhang, and when he is practicing, he will release a sensing force at any time and sentry himself around. Before Xie Naxin walked to the door, he had already "seen" Xie Naxin at the corner of the street.
Now Lu Cheng is accustomed to such dual-mindedness, letting the sensing force be a spy for himself. It was only in the second half of the night, when there were stars in the sky, that he began to look at the stars. At that time, his sense of power was not under his control, but broke through his body and threw himself into the infinite night.
"Father, please come in. Lu Cheng stepped aside and invited Xie Naxin in.
"Cheng'er, do you still have any money?" Xie Naxin said as he stood in the courtyard and rubbed his hands. He always borrowed money from Yizi, and Yizi was still a handyman, so he was very embarrassed. But who made him addicted to gambling, as long as he gambled, he could put down any dignity and face for the time being.
"Father-in-law, I don't have much money on me, you wait. Lu Cheng turned around and returned to the room, during this time, he had to consume nearly twenty catties of meat every day, according to twenty wen for one catty of pork, that was four hundred wen. One tael of silver can be exchanged for a thousand wen, and in the past ten days, it is several taels of silver. He didn't have the habit of saving money, anyway, if he didn't have enough money, he went to the Sifang Gambling House to mention it.
"Only a few hundred wen?" Xie Naxin opened Lu Cheng's money bag and saw that there was no broken silver at all, only four or five hundred copper coins.
"This is my last net worth, father-in-law, can you leave me a little?" Lu Cheng asked, although he can go to the Sifang Gambling House at any time to win money, he must also have capital.
"That's nature. Xie Naxin grabbed a handful of copper coins, about thirty or forty to Lu Cheng, and he took the rest to the casino.
"Alas. Lu Cheng sighed, it seems that he is still a chess player, originally thought that his father-in-law would not fight his own idea again, but last night he went to visit them, bought wine and meat, and exposed the details. It's just that this little money doesn't seem to be enough.
Not long after Xie Naxin left, Lu Cheng also went to the Sifang Gambling House after changing his appearance. Today's Sifang Gambling House has an extra table, which is for the disciples of the family to compete and bet on winning or losing. But Lu Cheng is not interested in this, whether it is Song Kaixuan or Ye Tianlong, or Li Yuncong, he doesn't care who wins or loses.
Now Lu Cheng has a lot of experience in how to win money in the Sifang Casino. Don't win a lot of money at once, and don't win at the same table. When Lu Cheng was playing, he even squeezed to Xie Naxin's side. Xie Naxin's luck has never been strong, and he often loses two or three hands in order to win one.
Lu Cheng felt that Xie Naxin would soon lose everything, and if he lost it all, I was afraid that he would still be worried about the copper money in his hand. It's not that Lu Cheng doesn't want to give Xie Naxin money, it's just that if he indulges him like this, it will hurt him. Lu Cheng was worried that Xie Naxin would go back to him at any time to get the money, so he had to divide the induction power on him and keep an eye on his progress at any time. Once Xie Naxin is the last stand, he has to go back one step earlier.
Lu Cheng took turns gambling on several tables, and his dozens of copper coins had now become more than one or two. You only need to play a few more games, and you can have about five taels. Lu Cheng is not greedy, and with three or five taels of silver in his hand, he is already very content.
Lu Cheng can control his rhythm, but Xie Naxin cannot. Soon after Lu Cheng returned home, Xie Naxin came again. Xie Naxin has already lost his eyes, and at the beginning, he was still strong for a while, but he just didn't lose. In the back, I almost made the wrong bet, and soon lost all my capital.
"Father-in-law, this is my last bit of money. Lu Cheng said helplessly, if he didn't have the induction, I was afraid that everything in this family would be lost by him.
"My father-in-law will pay you back if he wins. Xie Naxin said that he didn't know how many times he had fantasized, and after winning big, he also raised his eyebrows. But fantasy is fantasy after all, and such scenes can only appear in dreams.
It's just that Xie Naxin once again couldn't fulfill his promise, he took more than 30 copper coins from Lu Cheng, only played three games, and lost them all. Xie Naxin touched his body, but could no longer find a copper plate, so he had no choice but to leave the table.
Watching others shouting loudly and staring intently at the table, he was really itching. He kept wandering around the tables, but he didn't dare to squeeze in, he had no money in his hand and was coaxed out, and his face was ugly.
Unbeknownst to Xie Naxin, there was a man in the casino who was watching him all along. The man was in his thirties, of medium height, with a square face and a mustache on his lips. He was dressed in a long gown and held a teapot in his hand, taking a sip from time to time. He is Liu Dingkai, the owner of the Sifang Gambling House, as the owner of the casino, his eyes are like eagles, extremely sharp, and he can see through people at a glance.
Liu Dingkai walked up to Xie Naxin, smiled and asked, "What's the matter, you lost everything?"
"Yes, Boss Liu, can you borrow some?" Xie Naxin beat the snake with the stick, Liu Dingkai is not only the owner of the Sifang Gambling House, but also puts money in the casino.
"Okay, how much do you want to borrow?" Liu Dingkai asked, originally there was no need for him to say this kind of thing in person, but Xie Naxin was the inner village guard of Songjiazhuang, and his identity was not ordinary.
"Two by two. Xie Naxin hesitated, but said firmly. Liu Dingkai is not a philanthropist, he borrowed two taels of silver from him, and he has to pay it back tomorrow. Of course, if you can pay it back before tomorrow afternoon, there is no interest. But if it is not paid tomorrow, the interest will be 100 wen per day, and after ten days, it will be 500 wen per day. Of course, the person who borrowed his money generally returned it within ten days.
"Erliang, Xie Escort will take five days to receive Fenglu, right?" Liu Dingkai said, no matter how much money he lent to Xie Naxin, he would return to the casino soon. But five days later, Xie Naxin had to pay back 22500 yuan.
"It's... Yes. Xie Naxin gritted his teeth and said.
"I believe that Xie Huwei is a trustworthy person, so I will lend you two taels. Liu Dingkai waved his hand, and someone immediately sent 2,000 Wen.
"Thank you, Master Liu. Xie Naxin didn't expect Liu Dingkai to really lend money to himself, although he had three taels of silver a month, his income in Songjiazhuang was not high. And in the casino, others can lend money to themselves, and they are also worthy of people. There is a saying that if you gamble and don't lose, he doesn't believe that he will continue to lose.
"Master, you can lend him two taels at a time, I'm afraid Xie Naxin won't be able to come next month. A person next to Liu Dingkai said flatteringly.
"Not necessarily. Liu Dingkai walked into the room with his hands behind his back, and left another sentence when he left, "I will lend him some more money later, tonight, he can borrow as much as he wants, but he must make a note." ”
