Zhang Lu put his hand on Ji Gang's shoulder and said, "We have paid taxes, who dares to imitate us?" Who would dare to make trouble? That is, you can't get along with the government, and besides, your current identity is Jinyiwei! ”

The underworld has been in place for a long time, Ji Gang actually forgot the identity of his Jinyiwei, as long as he is backed by the imperial court and Jinyiwei, it seems that there is nothing to be afraid of, and as long as the money is in place, even if the nine gates emerge, there is nothing they can do, and at that time, the government, the underworld, and the people will be on their side, and the nine gates will never be opponents.

Ji Gang gave Zhang Zhen a thumbs up and said, "My lord is right. According to the humble view, this lottery is viable. ”

Since it has been recognized by Ji Gang,Then the two discussed the specific matters and details of the lottery for a long time.

Zhang Lu is a big boss behind the scenes, which is commonly known as the hands-off shopkeeper, and the specific affairs are all handled by Ji Gang.

After the discussion, Ji Gang didn't plan to take refuge in Jinyiwei, and he didn't find the people of Jiumen for three days, God knows when they will be able to surface, Ji Gang is now full of thoughts and only wants to get the lottery business up and running.

"You wait a minute." Ji Gang was about to leave, but was stopped by Zhang Yu.

Ji Gang turned around, but found that Zhang Lu was staring at him with a solemn face, Ji Gang hurriedly asked, "I don't know what else the adults have to order?" ”

Zhang Lu walked past Ji Gang and chose to turn his back to Ji Gang, he felt that this was like a mysterious and connotative leader, so as to deter Ji Gang, of course, there were also some fork elements.

I only heard Zhang Lu say: "I handed over all the things of the lottery to you, and please remember that you are now a Jinyiwei, I don't ask you to do good things every day, but don't do things that shouldn't be done, you know what I mean, right?" ”

Zhang Lu's words can be regarded as a beating, after all, Ji Gang is from the underworld, and it is easy to go out of line, if he can't set up rules now, he may cause a lot of trouble in the future.

Ji Gang bowed his head and arched his hand, and said, "Humble duty and remember the teachings of adults. ”

Zhang Lu turned around and nodded, his expression was no longer solemn, and he said again: "By the way, there is one more thing." ”

In the eyes of Ji Gang,The lottery business is heavy and complicated,In order to avoid omissions,It is normal for Zhang Lu to thank you.

Ji Gang bowed and said, "My lord, please speak." ”

Who knew that Zhang Lu actually showed an embarrassed look, he scratched his head with his fingers, and said, "You can lend me some money first, it's not much, just ten taels or twenty taels." ”

What is this operation? Ji Gang felt that his brain seemed to be a little insufficient, Zhang Lu was still a noble son, or Jinyi Wei Xiaoqi, such a person still needs to borrow money from himself?

Seeing that Ji Gang was stunned and didn't answer, Zhang Gang showed a serious expression again and said, "What? Don't want to borrow, do you? You used to run a gambling house in the underworld, I don't believe you didn't even have ten taels or twenty taels. ”

Seeing Zhang Lu's face change, Ji Gang hurriedly took out twenty taels of silver from his arms and handed it to Zhang Lu, and said: "Adults can find lowly positions and ask for money, and they can be regarded as adults who can afford lowly positions, here are twenty taels, and please smile and accept them." ”

Ji Gang deliberately emphasized the words "asking for money" and "laughing", he has been running a gambling house for many years, he still has some money, and it is normal for him to take out twenty taels to honor his boss, but he still can't help but slander in his heart: My lord, your identity is not like a person who is short of money, even if you are short of money, you are looking for a lowly position to ask for twenty taels, this pattern is not good.

Zhang Lu took the twenty taels, glanced at Ji Gang with slanted eyes, and said, "You don't think it's a good thing to say this!" Am I asking for money? I'm borrowing! Do you understand? When the lottery makes money, I will pay you back! ”

Ji Gang immediately nodded, "Yes, yes, my lord will definitely be humble." ”

Although he said so, Ji Gang didn't think that the twenty taels of silver would come back.

Zhang Lu was helpless, but he didn't want to explain too much, he waved his hand towards Ji Gang, "Okay, okay, you hurry up and implement the lottery business." ”

Ji Gang left, and Zhang Lu then went to Moss Village, which was still early, and Moss Village, including Yuanbao, went out to beg for food, leaving only a small number of people to take care of the disabled people rescued from Tumen.

Zhang Lu left twenty taels of silver and left.

……

Seven days later, Ji Gang's original gambling house was transformed into the first lottery center in Jinling City, and the thugs under him before also became the staff of the lottery center.

The preparations have been completed, and of course Ji Gang has to ask Zhang Lu to come and inspect it.

Although decided to be a hands-off shopkeeper,But some things can not be absent,Of course, Zhang Zhen has to come to the lottery center to take a good turn.

Just came to the door, Ji Gang had already led a group of subordinates to greet him.

Zhang Lu walked past the welcoming procession, looked left and right at Ji Gang's subordinates, his face sank, and he asked Ji Gang, "You just let these people come to receive guests?" ”

Ji Gang nodded and said: "Yes, these are the little brothers who were accepted before the humble position, and they can be regarded as loyal to the humble position, don't look at them stupidly, but the simple job of receiving guests is still competent." ”

Zhang Yu was helpless and said: "Our lottery is open to the public. Zhang Yu said, pointed to one of the thugs, and said: "Look at it, this guy is so tall, and I am afraid of the scar on his face, and the people dare to come in and buy our lottery tickets when they see him?" ”

The thug who was pointed at lowered his head in shame, once upon a time, this scary scar on his face was what he was most proud of, he didn't know how many people had been scared off with this scar, but now, he was just like a wronged child.

Zhang Lu then pointed to another thug and said: "Look at this person again, he looks like a charlatan, he came to receive guests, and the guests can still trust us?" ”

Ji Gang scratched his head and said, "My lord, what you said is reasonable, but it is all the negligence of your humble duties. ”

Then, Ji Gang showed an embarrassed expression again, and said: "My lord, these people have been with the humble side for some years, and they are all trustworthy, and now we are going to do big business, I'm afraid it's not okay to leave these brothers behind?" ”

Zhang Lu glanced at Ji Gang, "I didn't expect you to be a righteous master." ”

Ji Gang said: "If you mix in the road, don't you just pay attention to the word 'righteousness'." ”

Zhang Yu nodded and said, "I only said that these people are not suitable for receiving guests, but I didn't say that I would expel them." ”

Hearing Zhang Lu's words, a group of thugs immediately showed a grateful expression, they had already learned from Ji Gang that they were going to make a living in the lottery, and this business was very profitable, they didn't want to lose this job because of their appearance.
