Chapter Ninety-Eight: Picking the Grass and Finding the Snake
'What's the point?' Wang Zhi suddenly became suspicious. 'On the Qinhuai River, not only the girl's posture is far from being comparable to ours here, but also all of them have flowers and moon appearances, and they are all incapable of playing the piano, chess, calligraphy, and painting......;
"Oh, there is such a wonderful thing! Why didn't the old mother say it earlier?" It seemed to be quite close to the appearance of the suspect woman who was about Niu Daquan, and Wang Zhi suddenly became interested. It's not that the old man deliberately conceals his son, but it is actually that the golden grotto on the Qinhuai River costs like flowing water, but he can't help but worry about his son' The old bustard was blessed first, and then looked at Wang Zhi's body again. Although Wang Zhi is a disciple of the Pure Clothes Sect, he also deliberately made a fool of himself when he was about to travel, but compared to those rich boys, he was obviously still a lot worse. "So this old bustard is worried that I won't be able to spend the money?!" Wang Zhi said secretly.
So, he hurriedly took out a few gold leaves that were coiled and lit them up, frowned and said, "It's just that the Qinhuai River is far away from here, but how can you get it for a while?" ''That's very good!'' After Wang Zhi responded, after a little discussion, he immediately paid the insurance bank and got on the fast boat arranged by the old bustard.
In just over an hour's effort, the boat reached the Yangtze River channel, and then went down the river and arrived at the ground of Jiangning Mansion in the evening. Calculating the time, it is just one day!'It's so convenient?!' Wang Zhi couldn't help but sigh secretly. Because of the task of this trip, Wang Zhi only stopped for a while, and then urged the oarsman to continue his journey.
After entering the Qinhuai River, I saw: Although it was only the beginning of the lanterns, the river was already full of sheng songs, and the boats were painted one after another; The fast boat did not stop for a moment, and sailed straight to one of the huge painting boats. As soon as they landed on the deck of the boat, several gorgeous women standing on the bow of the boat gathered around. After the oarsman whispered a few words to one of the half-aged who looked like an old bustard, Wang Zhi was immediately embraced by a group of women into the attic with the book "Ruyi Fang" in the middle.
After entering, I immediately found that the space inside was quite spacious. After looking back for a week, I saw a huge dice pattern and a big word 'charge' painted on a wall paved with brocade at the back, and there was a couplet on both sides: How many bets are bet on and how many bets are bet, morning, noon, evening, midday, and evening! When I looked back, I saw a huge round table in the center of the room, and on the table were written 'big', 'small' and rows of numbers. At this moment, a group of people were staring at a round-bottomed plastic cup in the table, all with greedy eyes. The cup is black and opaque, with a hand attached to the bottom of the glass plate, and a brass buckle on both sides of the lid to tie to the base; At the same time, it suddenly made the onlookers cheer or dejected. Listening to the shouts of everyone in the house, Wang Zhi suddenly understood: It turned out that this was actually a casino!
Wang Zhi was disappointed, and even asked the man who was handling the oars for the bail. The oarsman smiled and said, "Childe just play with this place for the time being, and the villain will definitely let you have fun later!" Seeing that the two seemed to have an argument, a person who looked like a young man on the field had already stepped forward to invite Wang Zhi to take a seat. Although he didn't know anything about these money gambling, Wang Zhi, who was worried about being seen flawed by the oarsman's mysterious appearance, still sat down at the gambling table according to his words. After sitting down, seeing that Wang Zhi, who didn't understand Lian Hu, was just staring at the plastic cup in the table in a daze, the little two even stepped forward to explain: "This is the cup, the son only needs to put the property on the number in the betting area, if two of the three dice are the same as the number you bet, the win is doubled; if you don't think it's easy to bet, you can also play the bet size, the banker's odds are one to one, the bet is the sum of the numbers of the three dice; big is the sum of the numbers eleven to seventeen, three to fourteen are small.
Finally, he added, 'No matter whether the bet is big or small, if the dice roll three of a kind, it is a leopard, and the banker wins.' After listening to the explanation, seeing that the oarsman also came over, Wang Zhi quickly took out a piece of silver and put it on the word "big". Unexpectedly, as the cup was opened, it was hit! Just when Wang Zhi was responding to the call of others, the little two had already taken the silver and weighed it, and sent the silver over. Thinking of the next plan, Wang Zhi didn't think much about it, and then took out some scattered pieces of silver and gave them to the oarsman. After the man received the reward, he did not leave, but even found tea and snacks, and waited on the side.
As soon as Wang Zhi had finished using the tea, he immediately began to encourage him to continue betting. And when he made another bet, and he won again, he gave the man some silver. Wang Zhi's luck today was really surprisingly good, and after only a while, he had already won nearly two hundred taels! Seeing that the heat was almost the same, the oarsman immediately ordered someone to change the tea and snacks, and after serving Wang Zhi, he began to continue to encourage betting. Unexpectedly, this one lost. The man was also interested, and instead of asking for the reward again, he served him even more diligently.
As soon as Wang Zhi drank the transfer tea that had been changed again, it seemed that his luck had turned around a little, and when he began to encourage him again. Thinking that he didn't want to leave for the time being, Wang Zhisui rewarded the man with some silver and continued to play peacefully.
So, in the midst of this series of battles of winning and losing, in the end, Wang Zhi not only poured out all the previous wins, but also lost all the bags of gold leaves he was carrying! Seeing that the time had come, the man who operated the oars immediately led Wang Zhi into a huge warm pavilion in the hall with the little er.
The house has already been prepared with a table of wine and food, and the dishes are dazzling, and all kinds of river freshness are complete. After sitting down, before they could speak, several people got up. During the banquet, the two couldn't help but persuade each other repeatedly, and Wang Zhi, who was secretly secret, couldn't help but drink a few more glasses.
But how did the two of them know? Although Wang Zhi was a scholar, he was born to be a good drinker, and even if he drank all the wine on the table, he couldn't help it. After a few rounds of drinking, when the man asked about Wang Zhi's origin again with the strength of the wine, Wang Zhi still insisted that he was from a wealthy salt merchant's family to deal with it. When he asked again, Wang Zhi turned his face blank and said, "My little brother has always treated me with sincerity, but how did my brother come to trick me?!" 'Although this time is happy, it is not as wonderful as what my brother said before he came!' Wang Zhi asked again.
