Chapter Forty-Eight: Betting!

"Just call me Hamori."

On the way down the mountain, the rickety blue-faced old man looked at Jiang Chou with a smile and introduced himself.

Jiang Chou let out an "oh", hesitated for a moment and then stopped, and distanced himself from the old man Yu Shou.

There is no other reason, the main reason is that the old man is not looking at him quite right.

Although Jiang Chou, who had this face, was already very accustomed to the feeling of being watched when he walked on the road, the gaze of this old man named Yu Shou was especially abnormal.

Others look at him either in amazement or want, but this old man who looks at him is like watching whether a sow is good or not......

"Michido Koe, right? Look at your age, do you have a good look? Yu Shou asked with a smile as he walked down the mountain with his hands behind his back.

Jiang Chou tightened his fists, and said with a polite smile on his face: "Taoist priests can't find a good match." ”

Yu Shou said "um" with satisfaction, and said earnestly, "People, you always have to get married, if you don't have a family, what should you do when you're old?" It's dead and stinks, and no one knows! So if you find a suitable one around you, don't let it go......"

"I have a granddaughter, who is just sixteen this year, and she is called a beautiful ......"

Jiang Chou just wants to say that your granddaughter's dowry has just been lost by you in the gambling house, have you forgotten!?

"Master, he has a secret on him, do you want to know? If you want to know, I'll tell you! ”

Wan Shu suddenly said in his head.

Jiang Chou was stunned for a moment, and then realized one thing.

Although it is not clear why Wanjuanshu has a "soft spot" for him, if Wanjuanshu is really willing to be used by him, not to mention the number of dice in theory, wouldn't he want to know anyone's secrets?

For example, the secret of the old man in front of him.

Another example is the past identity of Jun Jue's head.

This ability ...... It's a bit excessive......

If another person has this ability, he may have some kind of good or bad or just a novelty to explore the secret of the old man in front of him, but Jiang Chou hesitated.

As a member of the time-traveled, in the world of his previous life, he deeply experienced the importance of privacy, and he also knew very clearly how terrible a world without privacy was...... Countless people have lost their beautiful lives due to privacy leaks.

Even if you have no malicious intent, it is undoubtedly a harm to others to explore the privacy of others at will.

The ability to be unrestrained, no matter where you are, no matter who you are, is dangerous.

Jiang Chou stared, and did not choose to explore the secret of this old man Yu Shou from the ten thousand books.

Just because he was curious, he casually explored other people's privacy, and Jiang Chou was reluctant to do so.

Although the old man was a little verbose, he was not hostile to him, and the old man's secret had little to do with him.

Jiang Chou just wants to live his life well now and let Xiao Qingguan live.

This decision caused Jiang Chou to not know something until much later.

Let's not talk about that for now.

……

At the entrance of Shanbo Gambling House, because of the sudden increase in the flow of gambling stones, even the people who do not like to gamble on weekdays have been attracted a lot because of curiosity.

As a last resort, Shanbo Gambling House temporarily released the entry threshold, and those who want to enter the gambling house to gamble on stones need to pay an entry fee of ten taels of silver first.

This greatly reduced the flow of people pouring into the gambling house, after all, ten taels of silver is not a small amount for ordinary families in Qinghe County, and it is not cost-effective to spend so much just for a little curiosity.

But there were still a lot of people at the door.

Jiang Chou and Yu Shou came to the door of the gambling house.

Yu Shoufang just lost eight handfuls in a row in the gambling house, and lost all the gold and silver brought out of his body, at this time, there were many people who knew him, and when they saw this little old man turn back, they couldn't help but be a little surprised by his financial resources.

And when everyone saw Jiang Chou who was following Yu Shou, their surprise turned into a square of surprise.

"Isn't this the chief of the province? The chief of Xiaojiang also came to gamble on stones? ”

"But, will Daoist Xiao Jiang gamble on stones? I'm afraid it doesn't matter what it looks like...... Bet on my heart. ”

"You don't know yet, the Zhongtongmen found Xiao Qingguan again this morning, and asked the head of Xiaojiang to hand over 1,100 taels! How can the chief of Xiaojiang get so much money......"

"Could it be that Daoist Xiao Jiang is ready to gamble on stones to earn a thousand taels?! This...... It's too hard, isn't it...... If he loses, won't Xiao Qingguan be able to keep it? ”

"yes, yes......"

At the door of the gambling house, the man in charge of collecting the money saw Jiang Chou, bowed his head and ran over quickly, and said with a smile: "Daoist Xiao Jiang, dare to ask you if you are here to gamble on stones?" ”

"Hmm." Jiang Chou said.

The man rubbed his hands, his face was happy, Jiang Chou would definitely attract a wave of people to enter if he came.

He said: "Okay, okay, Xiaojiang Dao is invited soon." ”

Jiang Chou said "thank you" and walked towards the gambling house.

Hamori followed him.

"Introductory gold, ten taels of silver, benefit." The man stopped in front of Yu Shou, stretched out his hand, and said in a cold tone.

Yu Shouqing's face froze, and he pointed to Jiang Chou's back in front of him and said, "Why don't you ask him to accept it?!" ”

The man sneered, and said as a matter of course: "Daoist Xiaojiang is Daoist Xiaojiang, you can also compare with Daoist Xiaojiang?" ”

Yu Shou opened his mouth and didn't say anything for a long time, seeing that Jiang Chou was about to disappear into the inner door, he was in a hurry, and hurriedly said: "Xiao Jiang Daochang, quickly lend me ten taels of silver!" ”

Jiang Chou paused, the corners of his mouth pursed stiffly, and after a while, he turned his head to look at Yu Shou and said seriously: "If you don't borrow it, can't you?" ”

……

If he could, Jiang Chou would love not to borrow it.

This time he went down the mountain to gamble on the stones, adhering to the strategy of not putting all his eggs in the same basket, Jiang Chou firmly rejected Chonglou's opinion to bring all the hundred taels down the mountain, and only brought half of them.

Although there should be no accidents with 10,000 books, ...... What if? Xiaoqingguan's family background is thin and can't withstand the toss.

What's more, before you start gambling, you have to spend one-fifth to buy an entry qualification?

Jiang Chou looked at Yu Shou with a very resentful look.

If Yu Shou didn't pay him back the ten taels of silver, he could keep an eye on him until the end of the world.

"Also! Won't I pay you back if I win in a while? Yu Shou was stared at and said helplessly, "Win first!" ”

Right! Win first!

As long as you can win back a thousand taels, it's just ten taels of silver...... It's still very important.

Jiang Chou took a deep breath, lifted the curtain in the backyard of the gambling house with Yu Shou, and came to the gambling stone area.

From the beginning to now, there have been several groups of people here, and all that remains at this time are all famous and wealthy people in Qinghe County, oh, and Bu Hei.

Of the five tables that were originally full of stones, only the three on the right still had some stones on them, and the two leftmost tables looked like they had all been gambled.

The people involved in the gambling stone stand next to the stone they have bought, waiting for the stonecutter of the gambling house to come and cut the stone.

Some of the stones at their feet have been cut open, or their empty interiors have been exposed, or the shining spirit stones have been cut out, and the eyes of those who shine are glazed.

Those who didn't cut out the spirit stone felt sorry for their foreheads, and those who cut out the spirit stone were full of red light and smiled from ear to ear.

The most stones were cut at the feet of the stephen, and the spirit stones piled up were also the most, accumulating to his ankles, not to mention a few catties!

The spirit stone shone with a intoxicating aura, and Bu Si sat for a long time, and when he saw Jiang Chou walking in, his eyes were slightly stunned, and he immediately guessed something.

He stood up, with a sneer, and walked towards Jiang Chou.
