After the New Year's holiday, the Whelan Academy opened, but there was trouble on the first day. Someone exposed Huilan's identity, and the officials of Guozijian were furious, and swept a group of students to Ouyang to ask for an explanation, demanding that Guozijian manage the school.

Ouyang said very simply: "Douwen! The officials agreed. They couldn't disagree, because Ouyang was responsible for all the expenses of this school.

As a result, Guozijian prescribed exam questions according to the state examination of the imperial examination. In addition to Whelan, there were thirty other members of the city who participated. But as soon as the results came out, the Guozijian could only admit defeat. After such a small turmoil, the school finally began to hold classes.

The classes are all set by Ouyang, focusing on literacy and writing, and only learning daily words. Whelan is also very concerned about this matter. Although much is known about her status as a prostitute, the students have always respectfully addressed Whelan as Mr. Occasionally, when someone mentions his previous identity, he will be beaten by the crowd.

……

The security of the county is in charge of two catchers and Zhan Ming. Dealing with state and county documents, entertainment has the all-rounder. Family affairs, financial control and corruption have Ou Ping. The heads of households everywhere are qualified, and the officials are more upright and responsible, and they seem to have done everything they should do.

"Someone!"

"In!" White Lotus enters the study.

“…… yes, you're on your first day at work today. Ouyang saw Bai Lian before he remembered: "Is the horse fed?" ”

"It's all fed...... Thank you for not tattooing. ”

"You're welcome, it's up to you, take something and accompany me on a trip."

……

Yipin Gambling House ushered in the county master today, and a group of gamblers saw the arrival of the magistrate in official uniforms, and all stood up in panic. Ouyang smiled and motioned for them to sit down and ask the guys, "Where is the shopkeeper?" ”

"Yes, here, my lord." A man in his forties came out of the room, sweating and confused: "Little Wang Mai, I don't know that the adults are coming......"

"You're welcome, I'm here to gamble." Ouyang nodded, and Bai Lian put a bag of things on the table and opened it, it was all gold, conservatively estimated at one hundred taels.

"Great, great." Wang Mai stammered: "I'm afraid the small shop ......"

"Don't worry, listen to me." Ouyang said: "Take a gamble, the gambling equipment is up to you." I win, and the casino closes. If I lose, the hundred taels of gold will be yours. What do you think? It's not a cost. ”

"Kidding me."

Ouyang asked rhetorically: "Do you think that this county is wearing an official uniform to joke with you?" ”

“…… Good! The little one sacrificed his life to accompany the gentleman. Wang Mai gritted his teeth, it would be impossible not to gamble today. If you don't bet on 10% of the closing, there is still 50% hope for betting: "Bet on the size, how do you feel about the adult?" ”

"Whatever." Ouyang smiled lightly.

……

Ouyang patted Wang Mai, who was gray, on the shoulder and said, "In the evening, the county has set up a banquet in the yamen, and please enjoy the light." ”

"Yes, Wang will definitely come."

"Remember to close the door, next one."

All five gambling houses were closed within a day, and the sixth received the news in advance and closed the door, Ouyang ordered to forcibly break into the door on the charge of harboring bandits. And cadres than hooligans, looking for death!

That night, the county office, the six shopkeepers sat on the seat with anxiety and did not dare to speak. Beside them, a cadre of officials led by Zhan Ming stood with horizontal swords. In fact, don't talk about them, even Zhan Ming doesn't know what medicine is sold in Ouyang Hulu. But Ouyang didn't say it, he never asked.

After waiting for half an hour, Ouyang finally came out in plain clothes, and arched his hands and said, "I'm sorry, I'm busy with business." ”

"It's okay, it's okay!" Several shopkeepers hurriedly stood up to greet them.

"Go down." The official went down, Ouyang took his seat, and Zhanming guarded beside him. These gambling house owners are not good at stubble. Ouyang took a sip of wine and said, "Several of them are all talents. Although they are all gambling stalls that do not enter the stream, they are all talents who can open a gambling house for 20 years and stand tall. ”

Wang Mai hugged his fists and said: "My lord, I am a rough person, if you have something to say, you can say it directly." ”

"Well, let's put it that way. Yangping, don't open a gambling house. If anyone is interested in cooperating with this county to open a golden nest in Liao, stay. ”

Liaoguo? Several people wanted to touch Ouyang's head to see if it was hot, and what they said didn't seem to pass through the brain.

"Cooperate with local gambling houses, collude with the powerful, and open a casino, brothel, amusement, service, etc. in Linhuang Mansion as one of the gold sales land, the county is in the hands of the people who catch traitors and thieves, and the gambling stalls have to rely on your help...... It's still too late to go. ”

This is very thunderous and very whimsical. Ouyang knew they would think so. For example, if someone tells you that let's go to Paris, France to rob together, everyone thinks it's incredible. After saying this, the four shopkeepers stood up and left. The remaining two, one is Wang Mai, and the other is Zhang Xing. Both of them were suspicious, but they did not leave the table.

Ouyang nodded and said, "If you are interested, the county will talk about it." The benefits are no problem, and the three of us divide them equally...... The so-called strong dragon does not suppress the head snake, the first step, you must first choose a partner. "Transnational crime is like that, and the best way to get to a place is to partner with a local criminal syndicate.

Zhang Xing is in his early thirties, and his appearance is very capable: "My lord, if we really have the capital and ability to open such a nest of money, I don't think we need to ask for help, as long as the wind is released, someone will naturally come to us." The little one once went to Linhuang Mansion, and the little cousin was a guy from a small local gambling house. ”

"Yes, yes." For example, if you take white noodles to sell in other places, you don't need to sell them door-to-door, and there will be buyers who come to your door when you put some wind out. Ouyang Dao: "The second step is to buy a powerful person with a certain strength to join the gang from scratch, he provides protection, does not pay money, but can get monthly dividends for nothing." ”

Wang Mai said: "This kind of magnates, there is no shortage in the Great Song Dynasty and the Liao Kingdom, as long as there is money." ”

"The third point is to acquire property in the suburbs of Linhuang Province, or directly build ......"

"Your Excellency." Wang Mai said: "You said this, in fact, I thought about it when I was young. Not afraid of adult jokes, the little one grew up in the gambling house since he was a child, and his volunteer is to open a super large casino. But...... My lord, there are two problems that are difficult to solve. ”

"What's the problem?"

"The first issue is money." Wang Mai said: "My lord has calculated this fund, but when there is no income, when the powerful are encircled and the site is built, how much money will it take to ********?" ”

"Is 50,000 taels of silver enough?"

“…… Adults have this money? Wang Mai's implication was that since he had this money, why did he go to Liao to open a casino.

Of course! Ouyang was previously corrupt, raided his house, and emptied the county government, so he could make up more than 100,000 yuan, which was equivalent to more than 90,000 taels of silver.

Zhang Xing shook his head: "My lord, if it is an independent business, of course it will cost fifty thousand taels." But if it's a partnership, you don't need so much for a small look. First of all, the money of bribing the powerful can be exempted, and it is even possible to give up the land to us for business. Secondly, recruiting thugs is naturally a partner search. According to the small one, ten thousand taels are enough. I'm afraid the most critical is the second question that the shopkeeper said. ”

"That's right! The second problem is that casinos are not luxurious. Such as private gambling in the mountains, the wind is cold, and there is no enjoyment at all, but gamblers can gather hundreds or even thousands, why? Because of the gambling word. To attract gamblers, you need a variety of attraction methods. One play, two bets, the two correspondingly is the right principle. ”

"This county knows more than 30 gambling methods that you don't know." Ouyang smiled lightly and said: "I guarantee that there are many tricks, the fun is addictive, and the gambling is even more addictive." "As soon as poker comes out, who competes. It can also carry out horse betting, Mark Six and boxing competitions in which the masses participate. You can even learn the Colosseum, bet on the life and death of the warriors, and you can completely pull the Jurchen warriors to gamble together. Don't always lock up in a room and throw dice, and bet on the victory or defeat of the two armies, and the time it takes to gamble the city......
