In this way, Liu Ping'an passed the interview of the Four Seas Dart Bureau and became a glorious executioner. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info probationary period of one or two halves of silver, after the regularization can get between two and three taels, then according to the performance and the evaluation of the dart master. There is also no room and board during non-mission periods. So Liu Ping'an had to find a place to live for himself immediately, the inn was eighty wen a night, and a month's salary was not enough to sleep at night, which was too cost-effective.

On the afternoon of the interview, Liu Ping'an went to find Gao Heipi, and the night before yesterday, he patted his chest and promised to find him about the house. Xu Da can't handle this matter, he has been working as a guard in people's houses all the year round, and some of the doors in the neighborhood must not be clear.

Qianjintai is a large three-story building on Dongzhimen Street, which looks very simple from the outside, and does not look like a casino at all. There were two black-clothed men standing at the door, with a very fierce expression on their faces and beards, and when they saw that Liu Ping'an wanted to go in, they immediately came over to ask. Gambling houses are afraid of faces, especially the kind that no acquaintance leads the way.

"This uncle is very fresh, don't you play often, right? I'll show you the way. Although the left-handed man was a little vigilant, he still had the same respect for the guests, and opened the door with one hand to make a gesture of inviting in.

Liu Ping'an touched his hand and said with a smile: "I'm looking for Gao Jian, he is my senior brother." ”

When the big man heard this, his formulaic smiling face immediately disappeared, and the person returned to his place, and replied very plainly: "Gao Heipi is on duty inside, you can see it if you go in directly." ”

At this moment, the door that had just been closed was pushed open very rudely, and two black-clothed men dragged a person out, and they counted down to three-two-one very tacitly, and then threw it out like a burlap bag more than ten meters away.

Liu Ping'an was a little stunned when he saw their skillful movements, but the big man guarding the door laughed and said, "Gao Heipi, I only drove three people today, and your inspection team is not serious enough!"

One of the two big men who came out was Gao Jian, and the person who was thrown should have been accustomed to it, rolled on the ground a few times and got up quickly, scolding at the door, seeing Gao Jian's right hand clenched his fist and shining at him, he immediately turned around and left in fright.

The four casino men all laughed in unison, Liu Ping'an encountered such a thing for the first time, and he was a little unbearable, but he couldn't express anything in such a situation, if you want to say that these big men are not doing it right, they are just job responsibilities.

Liu Ping'an greeted Gao Jian: "Senior Brother Gao!"

Gao Jian happened to see him too, and the hand that just showed his fist was placed on Liu Ping'an's shoulder, and said with a smile: "Second brother also come over to play, let's go, I'll take you in." ”

I didn't expect the simple building outside, but the inside is another scenery, the hall is very wide, the decoration is magnificent, and it is not lost than the clubhouse of later generations. Originally, Liu Ping'an would have thought that there would be dozens of large tables in the casino, with one end written big and the other written small, and dozens of people gathered around the table shouting and shouting dice or pai gow. I didn't expect to go in and take a look, the mahjong table was neatly placed, comparable to the mahjong hall of later generations.

Well, at this time mahjong is still called leaf tiles.

Gao Jian smiled and introduced to Liu Ping'an: "Yezi brand is the most popular project in our field, and there are still one or two empty tables, but it will be a little later, and we will have to queue up to play." ”

Liu Ping'an walked to an empty table curiously, picked up a leaf card and looked at it carefully. It should be made of some kind of solid wood, which is very textured.

"Do you want to have fun? The consumption on this floor is very low, and you can play for 200 yuan! If you are lucky, you can get a few handfuls of a month's salary. Gao Jian seduced Liu Ping'an with a playful expression.

Just now, Liu Ping'an told him that he wanted to rent a house, and of course he also told him about his entry into the Four Seas Dart Bureau as an executioner, including the monthly salary.

"It's still free, I think I was abused very badly by Xiao Liuzi on Huashan at the beginning, wouldn't it be obvious to come here to send money. Liu Ping'an stayed away from such things and waved his hand to refuse.

Gao Jian explained: "Xiao Liuzi actually won a lot of money here, so he didn't want to leave for a few days after coming once, and everyone didn't trouble him for a while. As a result, this kid was not greedy enough to go up to the third floor to gamble, and I was not qualified to go there myself, and I would definitely not be able to take care of it, and then I was slaughtered as a fat sheep. ”

Of course, there are not only dozens of mahjong tables in such a large gambling hall as Qianjintai, but also a larger mahjong parlor that cannot break into such a big name. The leaf cards on the first floor are mainly used to attract customers, as a kind of Sven gambling, it also acts as a façade of the casino, and people will not be deterred by the dirty atmosphere as soon as they enter.

In this era, there is very little entertainment, after work officials and some rich businessmen with a little money will come out to play at night when they are bored, at the beginning it is still Sven to play the leaf card, and when the gambling addiction gradually grows up the leaf card can not meet its good gambling needs, it will go to the second floor or even the third floor, which is also a potential source of customers.

On the second floor, there are all kinds of gambling methods, such as dice, pai gow, cockfighting, cricket fighting, etc. The third floor is the VIP room, which is equipped with all kinds of gambling equipment, but only opens a big gambling game.

Gao Jian's authority could only take Liu Ping'an to the second floor for a stroll, and at first glance there was no one on the second floor, but he found that most of the people were gathered around a cockfighting ring.

Gao Jian smiled: "The sixth master Liu you saw that night was about to fight Kaifeng Ji Ye. Liu Liuye has a baby chicken called Da Hong Pao, is a winning general in our field, won Zheng Wangye 2,000 taels of silver last month, Zheng Wangye is not convinced, please come to Kaifeng professional cockfighting Ji Ye asked for another game, it is set today. ”

Ji Ye's name is Ji Changsheng, and his reputation in the cockfighting world and in the rivers and lakes is very loud, and he is a famous four-grade master, but he makes a living from cockfighting, and he rarely meets opponents, and he is also an outlier in the rivers and lakes. Liu Ping'an also stepped forward, he had only heard of cockfighting crickets, and he had never seen them, the cockfighting season was just right, but the fighting crickets had to wait until the end of summer to see it.

This cockfighting arena is a pond surrounded by partitions, of course, the surrounding decoration is more exquisite, and it looks more noble than the ordinary wild field.

The so-called good is not as good as the coincidence, when Liu Ping'an came to the edge of the cockfighting arena, it seemed that Zheng Wangye and Ji Ye just came over, with seven or eight subordinates, and the leader must be Zheng Wangye, striding in the lead, dressed luxuriously. Ji Ye is very famous for his cross-eyed eyes, but he is very low-key, he is inconspicuous in black, and if you don't look closely, you can't see that he is holding a black rooster in his hand.

Liu Liuye had been waiting on the edge of the cockfighting arena for a long time. Seeing Zheng Wangye and his party, he laughed and said: "The prince is finally here, I thought you lost badly last time, and you had stage fright." ”

Prince Zheng sat down in the place that belonged to him without hurry, and said with a smile: "How is it possible, the silver lent to you must be returned, you have to prepare interest, this time it is three thousand taels!"
