Chapter 13: The Legendary "Three Heroes"
In the sweep that night, Zhao Ran took out three simple masks, gave one to Jiao Tan and Zhou Huai, and demonstrated how to wear them on their noses. With the masks, the working atmosphere of the broom immediately changed, and most of the pungent fishy and disgusting smells were covered, and the three of them were obviously much easier to do their jobs.
Zhao Ran's favorability in Jiao Tan and Zhou Huai's hearts has increased significantly, and even Zhou Huai, who has always talked little, chatted with Zhao Ran a few more words. Jiao Tan even invited Zhao Ran to participate in tonight's game with them in the evening.
Zhao Ran said that he didn't understand Pai Gow, and he didn't have much money to spare, so he didn't really want to go.
Jiao Tan said brother, it doesn't matter if you don't understand, but you can go and join in the fun. You must know that this is the biggest card game in Wuji Courtyard this year, and it has a name called "Sanying Bureau", so it's a pity not to see it.
Zhao Ran asked curiously what is the "Three British Bureau"?
Jiao Tan gushed endlessly, saying that this "three English game", as the name suggests, is the game of three table talents. One is Zhang Ze in the vegetable room, the other is Jin Jiu in the water room, and the other is naturally Guan Er in the clean room. These three are recognized masters of gambling in Wuji Academy, and the level of playing cards is well-known!
Speaking of the month before last, the three of them finally sat together to play cards, which is really evocative, and the big color is also staggering. That time, Guan Er's skills were superior, and he swept away all the lottery heads on the table with an indisputable advantage.
Last month, Jin Jiu and Zhang Ze, who did not admit defeat, were invited to fight again, and Guan Er of course agreed. This time, Guan Er continued to overcome the strong enemy, and lost Jin Jiu and Zhang Ze to the crotch of their pants, which became a beautiful talk in Wuji Courtyard. Speaking of this, Jiao Tan sighed: "Although Guan Er is too domineering, when it comes to pai gow, it is really convincing! ”
Jiao Tan said: "This is the third game of the 'Three British Bureau', it is said that Jin Jiu and Zhang Ze raised a huge amount of money and vowed to avenge the loss of the first two games. This is a grand event, Brother Zhao must go to the meeting! Besides, it doesn't matter if you can't play Pai Gow, you can participate in the betting game, that is much simpler!"
Zhao Ran asked what the bet was, and Jiao Tan explained that in the 'Three British Rounds', only Jin Jiu, Zhang Ze and Guan Er were on the table, and they were killed until there was only one person left at the table. Others are not allowed to take cards, but they can bet on the side, that is, each hand is only bet on the banker or player, and it doesn't matter whether they will play cards.
Zhao Ran asked, who do the two brothers plan to bet?
Jiao Tan said, naturally it is the second bet, Guan Er is not only high in card skills, but also good luck, especially the latter, is the most important gambling winning factor in the game. Guan Er has been full of luck these days, and he is definitely a god and Buddha!
Jiao Tan and Zhou Huai danced on the side, and Zhao Ran couldn't help but be moved. Taking advantage of this opportunity to earn extra money is also a good thing.
But what should I do if Zhao Ran has no money? Zhou Huai said, Brother Zhao has no money, Brother Jiao and I will lend you a tael of silver, brother, don't be too little, Brother Jiao and I have lost too badly in the past few days, we all hope to win back this time, but we can keep some more capital.
Zhao Ran even said a lot, no matter if he wins or loses, he will return it according to fifty percent of the profit. Zhou Huai and Jiao Tan didn't take this bit of money to heart, they only said that Brother Zhao, you just take it to play, when you have money, when you pay it back, it's easy to say.
Zhao Ran sighed with emotion in his heart, saying that he wanted to enter the Daomen in every possible way, which was definitely an extremely correct choice. Look at the two in front of you, the shot is two taels of silver, without blinking an eye, compared to the fourth uncle who is bent on plotting his poor three-acre land, it is really a world of difference. There is an old saying in the previous life that is really true, the environment determines the success or failure of life, and there are all such rich and wealthy people around you, even if you mix badly, how bad can you be?
That night's "Sanying Bureau" was opened directly in the dining hall, Zhao Ran deliberately went a little late, he was a child who grew up under the red flag, and he never turned this corner, and he was always worried about whether the high-level of Wuji Yuan would ban this card game overnight. When the cards have been opened and the hall is gradually full of people, it is certain that in this world, it is really okay to gather people to gamble.
The large round table in the middle of the hall is the table of tonight's "Three British Games". The lewd man and the feminine man that Zhao Ran saw in the garden last night were sitting at the table, connecting Guan Er, and the three of them each had a corner, and each of them was full of gold and silver bills, which made Zhao Ran dizzy.
On the left and right sides of the round table, a long square table is placed, on the left side of the square table is stacked with stacks of copper coins, and on the right side of the square table is a silver ingot. Zhao Ran observed for a while, and he already understood that the two square tables were the betting tables that Jiao Tan said, that is, the player tables that only bet on Zhuang Xian, and the betting tables are divided into large and small platforms, the big platform is directly on the silver, and the small table is betting on copper coins, taking care of gamblers with different net worth.
Hundreds of Taoist priests and lay people wearing Taoist robes roared around the three gambling tables, and the atmosphere was extremely warm. But despite the trouble, the whole process of betting and collecting money is orderly and accurate. Zhao Ran noticed that there was a young man in Tsing Yi standing in front of the three platforms, who did not seem to be the Taoist priest and layman in the Wuji Courtyard. The three little guys were busy on the stage, and after a while, Zhao Ran heard that it turned out to be a dealer invited from the casino in Guyang County, Shanxia.
Jiao Tan saw Zhao Ran in the crowd, squeezed to his side, and said excitedly: "Hurry up and bet, don't stand still, you will win a lot less later!"
Zhao Ran asked, and Jiao Tan said with a red face: "Naturally, Guan Ersheng has won seven games in a row! Zhou Huai and I have already won back the old book that was folded in a few days ago!"
Zhao Ran thanked Jiao Tan for reminding him, but he still wanted to see it again, after all, the scene he peeked at last night was not a dream. He stood on tiptoe behind the crowd to observe the card table, and saw Guan Er playing the cards in his hand, and shouted triumphantly: "Ground bar with plum blossoms, kill!"
There was a burst of exclamation in the crowd, and the Taoist priests enthusiastically discussed: "Eight consecutive kills, eight consecutive kills!" and a few people cried and screamed: "How is it possible?"
Jin Jiu and Zhang Ze remained silent, and the dealer pushed the silver coin on the table in front of Guan Er, his expression was quite stable, and he didn't look anxious.
Zhao Ran guessed that maybe the two had not yet touched the two cards with mechanisms, or maybe the two had discussed a strategy - losing first and then winning, which was not only fair, but also could lure the other party to invest more money. For example, now Guan Er can win eight games in a row, and if Jin Jiu and Zhang Ze win eighteen games in a row in the future, no one can say anything.
Thinking about this, Zhao Ran came to the table where he bet on the small game, and exchanged the borrowed two taels of silver into twenty yuan, one hundred wen for each hanging, and tried to place a bet.
In the frantic shouts of the Taoist priests, Guan Er continued to stage a good show of killing, and Zhao Ran also won some, but he only dared to bet a small amount when he bet, and Guan Er's odds were low (most people were following Guan Er), so he didn't make much.
Soon, the gold and silver bills on the table of Jin Jiu and Zhang Ze were lost, and a large pile was piled up in front of Guan Er's table, which looked like five or six hundred taels.
Zhao Ran began to keep an eye on Jin Jiu and Zhang Ze, and he estimated that the drama of these two was almost enough.
Sure enough, Jin Jiu and Zhang Ze each opened a small wooden box and took out a stack of silver tickets from it.
"Fifty taels!" Jin Jiu took out a silver ticket and pushed it to the middle of the table, and Zhang Ze also followed. Guan Er laughed, didn't mind pointing out more than a dozen gold bills, and pushed forward.
The entire hall was suddenly silent, and without him, the stakes of this game had reached a level that could not help but beat heartbeatly.
Zhao Ran hurriedly exchanged the money for silver taels, a total of three small coins, and rushed to the edge of the big platform. Guan Er has been playing twelve games in a row at this moment, and Jin Jiu and Zhang Ze have been fighting in the idle side. Zhao Ran thought about it, didn't dare to hold it up, threw a silver coin and put it on the player's side, and placed one or two bets.
As soon as the cards were opened, the result made Zhao Ran a little surprised, Guan Er killed two opponents again, and even Zhuang thirteen rounds! Zhao Ran began to beat the drum in his heart, secretly cursing Jin Jiu and Zhang Ze, and at the same time silently urging these two: Hurry up!
Although he knew that there was a problem with tonight's game, Zhao Ran didn't know when it would change, he thought about it for a moment, and bet on a silver coin on the player's side again, he made up his mind, if he lost this time, he didn't bet, and waited for the situation to flip.
saw Jin Jiu and Jang Songze take out a silver ticket again and put it on the table, causing the whole hall to exclaim: "One hundred taels!"
