Shopkeeper Lu, who was sitting on the chair, looked at everything in front of him a little nervously at this time, and when his eyes fell on Zhou Ming's face, he felt a burst of confusion, because judging from Zhou Ming's confident appearance, this kid didn't seem to think that he would lose at all.

While Shopkeeper Lu was shocked, he was also thinking in his heart, what is the origin of this kid? Looking at his ragged clothes, he doesn't look like a rich man at all, but his speech and demeanor give people a feeling of unspeakably expensive.

Shopkeeper Lu racked his brains, but never came up with a reason, and finally he simply gave up, because he really felt that it was unnecessary and wasted his energy on this problem.

Under the oppressive gaze of everyone, Zhou Zhou Ming deliberately reached into his sleeve and made a look of looking for something.

Seeing this scene, the group of strong men behind the door suddenly became scared in their hearts, they were afraid that Zhou Zhou Ming would suddenly take out a rare treasure, in that case, they would be finished, after all, although they were all strong and fat, but the errands they did before were either coolies or blind scoundrels playing scoundrels on the street, and they had never done serious things.

After a lot of hardships, they finally found a decent job as a janitor in the money bank, if they lost this errand because of Zhou Ming, on the one hand, they would not be able to explain to their families, and on the other hand, they did not know where they would go to make a living in the future after losing this errand.

Thinking of this, they immediately panicked, they scrambled forward, their eyes narrowed, staring at Zhou Ming's hand that reached into their sleeves, and in the process, in order not to miss a single detail, each of them did not even blink an eye.

Steward Li has seen some of the world under the hands of the shopkeeper Lu, so when he saw Zhou Zhou Ming pulling out his sleeves, he had no waves in his heart, because he had already decided that Zhou Zhou Ming was a hooligan poor boy, and all the money on him would not add up to more than one or two silvers.

If he is frightened when he sees his resolute attitude, and takes the first step to admit it, then his goal has been achieved.

Because at that time, not only does he not need to prove his identity as a rich man, but he can also swagger to hold himself accountable.

Steward Li sneered in his heart, thinking to himself, dead boy, don't think it's okay, today Lao Tzu will fight with you to the end, see who can have the last laugh!

Zhou Ming's hand was pulled twice in his sleeve, and he suddenly stopped, and then his face changed drastically, as if he had thought of something important.

The strong men noticed the change in Zhou Ming's face, and their hearts immediately became nervous, they looked at Zhou Ming's hand hidden in his sleeve, and prayed silently in their hearts, praying that God must help them, and never let Zhou Ming take out valuable things,

Steward Li was also stunned for a moment, he didn't understand, he was dying, what tricks could Zhou Zhou Ming play?

"What's the matter, little brother? Is there something wrong? Steward Li asked angrily.

Shopkeeper Lu's attention was obviously also attracted by Zhou Ming, but before the gamble was won, he decided not to interfere again, so he never spoke.

Zhou Zhou Ming took his hand out of his sleeve, he didn't take anything in his hand, he straightened his sideburns with his hand, and then looked at Steward Li and said, "Steward Li, I just figured it out now, the bet we added just now doesn't seem to be equal, right?"

If I lose, not only will I admit my mistake and kowtow, but I will also have your limbs abolished, but if you lose, you will only admit your mistake and lose your errand.

In this losing situation, I refuse to participate in this gamble unless you increase the bet to an equal level with mine.

Of course, if you don't have the courage to do so, just pay me a little money, and this matter will be over, and I will not continue to trouble you in the future, and I will not hand over the business that should be negotiated with your shopkeeper to others. ”

Zhou Ming's actions just now, and what he said at this moment, are actually to trick these people, so that they can relax their vigilance in a dizzy situation, and then blindly increase the bet, so that after winning the gamble, he can justifiably poison them.

The group of strong men behind the door had been trembling with fear by Zhou Ming's previous actions, and when they saw Zhou Ming's hand coming out of his sleeve, it was still empty, and they all had a feeling of escaping death.

But before they had time to rejoice, they heard Zhou Ming say that they should raise the bet, and it should be added to the same extent as him, which made their hearts suddenly rise to their throats, because once they raise the bet, this gamble will be lost, and they will not only be embarrassed and lose their errands, but they are likely to suffer huge injuries physically.

The gang looked at each other wordlessly, and they all felt in their hearts that if they lost an errand for this gamble, they would already lose a lot, and if they broke their arms and legs because of this matter, it would be even less worthwhile.

They got together and discussed in a whisper for a while, and finally decided together that no matter what method Zhou Ming used to force them to raise the bet, they would not be fooled, and they would not be fooled if Steward Li wanted to raise the bet or not, they would definitely not increase it anyway.

After reaching this consensus, the gang wanted to go over immediately and tell Steward Li about the idea, so that he would not make decisions for them without their consent.

But before they put their ideas into action, they had no chance, because Steward Li had already made a decision for them.

After Steward Li listened to Zhou Ming's words just now, he was also a little confused for the first time, he didn't understand what kind of medicine was sold in this kid's gourd, but after some thought, he suddenly guessed the ghost idea in Zhou Ming's heart.

He felt that the reason why Zhou Zhou Ming did this was completely to use the agitation method to scare himself, so that he would not dare to increase the bet in a state of fear, so as to admit defeat directly.

After thinking about this, Steward Li couldn't stop laughing in his heart, because he felt that Zhou Zhou Ming could use this trick at a critical moment, it was too naïve, did he think he was a three-year-old child? No matter how stupid he is, he won't be afraid of his bad tricks.

After having the bottom in his heart, Steward Li decided not to dismantle Zhou Ming's little plan, but directly saw the trick and accompanied him to play this good show.

"Little brother, you underestimate me too much." Steward Li smiled proudly, "You didn't ask us to increase the bet just now, I thought you were very satisfied with our bet, so I didn't pay too much attention to the bet."

Now that you think our bets are too light, why do you say so badly now? ”

Zhou Zhou Ming knew that he had to do a full set of acts, otherwise, once the gang was suspicious halfway, it would be difficult for his plan to be implemented smoothly, so after listening to Steward Li's words, he deliberately pretended to be surprised, and then stammered: "You...... Aren't you afraid? If you want to increase the stakes, if you lose, you will have your legs and feet broken, and that kind of pain is not something that ordinary people can bear, and you should think twice before making a decision.

And don't forget, you're not making decisions for you alone, you have a lot of brothers behind you, and their lives are in your hands. ”

After listening to the conversation between the two people, the strong men were about to cry, and they were all wondering in their hearts, why did Manager Li not take their lives seriously at all at the critical moment, and he didn't even care about them yet.

They were all full of dissatisfaction with Steward Li in their hearts, but everyone dared to be angry and didn't dare to speak, because they knew in their hearts that if they offended Steward Li because of this incident, even if they won this gamble, it would be difficult for them to keep their jobs.

It was precisely because of this concern in their hearts that when they saw that Steward Li had signs of increasing the bet for them, they dared to be angry and did not dare to speak, so they could only swallow their anger and shut their mouths and put their life and death in the hands of Steward Li.

After seeing Zhou Ming's performance, Steward Li was even more convinced of his guess, so he immediately smiled and said: "You don't have to worry about these little brothers, these brothers under me have a lifelong friendship with me, I make decisions for them at this moment, and they will definitely not have an opinion."

Didn't you just think our bets were small? Then we will raise the bet now, and if you win this bet, you can not only destroy our limbs, but also take our lives.

Our shopkeeper can be a witness here, and even if you ask for my life, we will not report to the police to hold you responsible.

And there is another thing you can rest assured, we are willing to gamble on our side, as for whether you want to increase the bet to this extent, it is all up to you to decide, we will definitely not be reluctant. ”

After saying these words proudly, Steward Li didn't forget to turn around and ask the strong men with a smile: "Brothers, am I right?" We are dignified manly husbands, and we can't afford to gamble against a child! ”

The strong men were all dumbfounded, they really didn't expect that Steward Li would do things so excessively, and he actually blocked their lives without consulting them, which really didn't leave them a way to live.

Although they were full of dissatisfaction with Steward Li's approach, when these strong men faced his question, they could only pretend to smile and answer:

"Steward Li is right, if you force this kid to gamble with us, the matter will spread and others will laugh at him."

"Steward Li, you have done a beautiful job in this matter, and we all support you."

"Boss, your courage is too handsome, it is estimated that that kid has been scared out of the shadows by you, and he doesn't have the courage to bet with you for a while."
