Chapter 316 316: Sports Games Events (7) [Please vote]
Shen Tang stepped into this gambling stall with the mentality of "getting rich and becoming well-off", with a cheerful smile on his pretty face.
If the background of this world could be visualized...
Her background would probably be filled with pink flowers at the moment.
You can know her inner joy without looking with your eyes.
When Kang knew the inside story: "..."
How should he speak to express to his lord tactfully that this trip would not only not make him rich, but would actually make things worse? Will the already poor private treasury suffer heavy losses?
Kang Shi wanted to say it several times.
But I swallowed my words several times because of some expectation.
ε=(ο｀*)))alas
Then I thought about it, if this trip could make the Lord completely stop gambling and truly understand the truth that "gambling is not a good deed", it would be a good thing. Kang Shi lowered his eyelids and looked at the ponytail swaying behind the lord's head in front of him, thinking like this.
It is better to say it is a gambling stall than a small gambling shop.
The gambling stall is located in a simple residential house in Shenxiang.
Kang Shi looked at his lord with meaningful eyes.
Tsk.
The location of this gambling stall is really hidden.
I don’t know how my lord got to this position.
"Lord, wait a minute."
Kang Shi raised his hand to stop Shen Tang who wanted to enter.
“Let’s find out first.”
After that, he raised his hand to lift the dirty and dirty coarse cloth curtain with no original color, and pushed open the wooden door. Although the houses are simple, they are not small in size. The hot air mixed with various smells rushed towards my face, and the room was noisy.
Shen Tang poked his head in and looked around.
He said: "There are so many people."
Puffed the tip of his nose with his fingers.
A few wrinkles formed between his eyebrows: “It tastes great too.”
The residential area is not small, but with three or four short gambling tables, with six or seven people around each table, it seems quite crowded. There are also several groups of people playing cockfighting, playing chess, and throwing pots in the corner.
At a glance, everyone is there in the house.
She still has impressions of several faces.
Ju are "workmates" on the construction site.
There are many people in the house and the air is not very circulated.
The excitement got so high that some people even took off half of their sleeves to expose their arms and looked intently at the gambling equipment on the gaming table. Among them, most people play dice. After all, this method of gaming relies more on luck than IQ.
Friendly to common people with low levels of education.
“Big! Big! Big! Big!”
“Hey! Why are you small again?”
“This is the third time you are small, it’s time to be bigger. Damn it!" A certain gambler cursed and took out a "cake stick" and pressed it on.
"Come again, come again!"
"That's right, aren't you still winning?"
"You will definitely turn over in the next hand!" The gambler counted the "notes" in his arms. Gritting his teeth, he threw a card, "Remand! If you don't believe it, you can even Hold on! Wait! This time, your luck is as bad as your feet!"
A gambler laughed and said: "What?" br>
“Bah! That’s what Naigong said!”
The appearance of Shen and Tang did not attract any attention.
There are many gamblers coming and going every day, including some well-dressed ones such as Shen Tang and Kang Shi.
"Youli, what do you want to play?"
After entering the room, he no longer called Shen Tang "Lord".
If the identity is revealed, it is estimated that within the next day, rumors will spread in the streets that Mr. Shen is "lingering" at the gambling stall, not to mention how angry and roaring his cousin will be after hearing this. , it will also have a negative guiding effect on the common people.
Just do it secretly.
Shen Tang wants to play dice.
But there are too many people crowded into each table.
She weighed her body and the smell of others, and chose the "unpopular" items with fewer people.
“What are they playing at?”
Kang Shi glanced at it: "Playing chess."
The so-called "playing chess" means that the two people each hold a number of black and white chess pieces, place them in one corner of the chess board, and then use their fingers to flick the other's chess pieces until one side has a chess piece. If you get hit and take all the money, you lose. Gamblers watching can bet on the outcome of the two people.
The winning side can divide the losing side.
Small gambling stalls cannot afford good gambling equipment.
The so-called chess pieces are also quite crude and crude.
Kang Shi watched for a while and knew which side was going to lose, but he couldn't place bets or interfere. Once he intervened or placed bets - well, it's okay not to tell the result. His scribe's way once caused gamblers who were sure of winning to be overturned against the wind.
It’s hard to describe the taste in words.
Shen Tang watched for a while to figure out the rules of the game.
“Isn’t this similar to Gong Xiqiu’s marbles?” The difference is that Gong Xiqiu plays pearls the size of longan, while these gamblers play marbles painted in black and white with different shapes and sizes. Polished stones are not as interesting as dice.
As for cockfighting and pot throwing...
Not interesting.
The latter is easy for martial arts practitioners, while the former will only remind Shen Tang of a hundred ways to prepare chicken.
Looks like it’s better to play dice.
"Do you two want to play?" Shen and Tang stood out among a group of rough gamblers. The busboy at the gambling stall showed a pair of badly worn yellow teeth and greeted them with a smile, " We have everything here, do you want to play a few games?”
Whether it is a gambling house or a gambling stall, the focus is on the gamblers’ money, and the gamblers are their food and clothing parents. The difference is that Play big or play small. Of course, if the gambler can't restrain himself, the end result will be the same.
He went bankrupt, sold his sons and daughters, and even became a madam, forcing his wife to work as a prostitute to earn money to pay off debts...
Shen Tang asked Kang Shi: "What do you think?"
Kang Shi: " A small gamble is good for your mood, but a big gamble is harmful to your health. Just go away after playing a few times. If you go back too late, your cousin and the others will be worried."
Shen Tang nodded and rolled up his sleeves.
Under the leadership of the handyman, the two went to a gambling table with relatively few people, and they also played dice. There are three dice in a dice cup. After the dealer rolls them, he opens them and counts the points. Gamblers only need to place a large or small bet at the gaming table, and it depends purely on luck.
The chances are half and half, fortune depends on your destiny.
Of course, that’s what they say.
As for what’s fishy inside, the gamblers don’t know, or in other words, their ability is not enough to detect the fishery.
Shen Tang folded his hands on his chest, leaned out slightly, and looked at the dice cup that had opened its lid. There were three shiny dices lying inside. As a result, naturally some of the gamblers at this table were happy and some were sad, and all living beings were in various moods.
She turned around and invited Kang Shi to come down to the table and play.
Hehe——
This guy will lose every bet.
As long as you do the opposite, you will win every bet!
The two of them will be able to sweep the casino invincible together!
Shen Tang seemed to have seen all the coins in the gambler's pocket fly into her pocket, and waved enthusiastically to Kang Shi.
Kang Shi smiled helplessly and took out two coins.
Shen Tang said: "You are too stingy."
What can you do with two dollars?
The handyman was also a little disappointed.
His salary is linked to the profit of each table.
This young man wearing a scholar's robe looked at Qing Gui. Not only one or two taels of silver, but also a few pieces of broken silver were taken out. After searching for a long time, he finally found two copper coins, which really disappointed his expectations. . So, he turned his attention to Shen Tang.
Listening to Shen Tang’s words, this should be a generous owner.
What’s the result?
Shen Tang also took out two copper coins.
Bet on the opposite place.
Handyman: "..."
These two people dress like dogs, but they are real paupers! Today's prize money is in vain. The game of dice size is very simple.
Four to ten o'clock is small.
Eleven to seventeen o'clock is the best time.
If three or eighteen points are shaken out, the dealer takes all.
In the eyes of many people, the size is half and half probability. Keep betting big or keep betting small. Even if you lose a few times in the past, as long as the amount you bet is smaller, you will not suffer serious losses. Don’t repeat the bet again and make a comeback.
Even if you don’t make a lot of money, you won’t lose a lot.
Just like the gambler who was obsessed with "big" just now, he lost five or six "cakes" before, and just when "big" opened, he happened to bet three more "cakes" "Tiao", he recovered half of his original investment in one fell swoop, and the next time he bet on four "cake sticks".
Amid the shouts of the gamblers, the dice cup opened.
At three o'clock, the dealer takes all.
Shen Tang: "???"
Kang Shi: "???"
Watching the dealer taking away their coins, Shen Tang felt vaguely uncomfortable Wonderful, but I didn’t mutter anything.
After all, this can be regarded as "you must lose in every bet." Kang Shi did lose, but the copper she bet was also eaten.
Kang Shi resisted the urge to hold his forehead.
"Are you still playing?"
Shen Tang asked back: "Why not play?"
She took Kang Shi to the gambling stall just to "make a fortune" "Getting rich and becoming well-off" does not mean giving turnover to gambling stall owners.
“Let me bet first this time, and you bet later.”
A new round of betting is about to begin.
Shen Tang quickly pressed "small" with his quick eyes and hands.
After the check was over, Chongkang made an angry gesture at "big".
Kang Shi: "..."
He also had a vague premonition of something ominous.
But he still did as he was told, but this time he was more cunning.
He only took out a small copper coin.
Shen Tang clenched his fists in anticipation.
The other gamblers were shouting at the top of their lungs about the size of their choices, and she was also muttering in a low voice. When the dealer opened the lid of the dice cup, three neat "six"s appeared, which made people almost dumbfounded. . Shen Tang was so shocked that he opened his mouth slightly and was speechless for a long time.
"Three ones last time, three sixes this time???"
This beaver? ? ?
Very unbeaver! ! !
According to the general routine of gambling stalls, shouldn't you wait for the fat sheep to get emotional and spend a lot of money at all costs, and then kill the customer ruthlessly? Shen Tang looked around and saw no matching "fat sheep". Except for them, his face turned green and white.
Other gamblers also followed suit and heckled the dealer.
“What’s going on?”
"What's going on? How could it be such a coincidence?"
Unexpectedly, the banker was also confused.
It’s not that he can’t get three or eighteen points, but the chance of success is low, and it often takes several times before he gets lucky. I didn't use my hard-earned gambling skills twice just now. I just shook it casually. Why did I just take it all?
He could only smile: "Accident! What a surprise!"
Shen Tang said: "One more game!"
Other gamblers also followed: "One more round!"
"Yes, don't delay, try again and again!" In the past, it was not impossible to win twice in a row. In addition, this group of old gamblers were well-informed, and there was an atmosphere of gambling stalls among the crowd. Everyone muttered a few words and then revealed the matter.
Shen Tang rolled up his sleeves again.
He took a picture of three copper coins with bold movements.
Kang Shi shook his head helplessly.
He can already see the results.
But I still followed this round.
I thought this round would be a dramatic three or eighteen, but it turned out to be "big". However, the Lord bet on "small" in this round, and Kang Shi won. He collected the lost money from the banker and turned to look at the lord whose expression was almost split.
Whispered: "Why don't you leave?"
Shen Tang lowered his head and counted the half of the copper coins left.
Qi said: "Don't do anything in this game, I'll do it!"
Kang Shi slightly nodded guiltily.
"Okay, it's up to you."
Shen Tang still bet "small" in this round.
As a result, the dealer came again at 18 o'clock.
Shen Tang's face was livid, and he played a few more games in succession. In each game, he bet on "small", a copper coin. As a result, the dealer was either "three points" or "big". Listening to the chatter of other gamblers, her inner grievance almost overflowed.
The money bag is empty.
Kang Shi coughed softly and said in her ear: "It's time to go. It's too late to go back. It's hard to deal with other people asking."
Especially Qi Shan and Chu Yao. Whenever the two of them encounter problems related to their master, they like to get to the bottom of it, and they are even more difficult to fool. Kang Shi didn't want to be targeted by Qishan.
Shen Tang clenched his money bag into a ball.
Take a deep breath and suppress those emotions.
Said: "Let's go, let's go, everything is not going well today."
I was muttering in my heart.
Is my luck really that bad?
Even Kangshi Casino’s card bug’s magical skill - "You will lose every time you bet" - can’t bring her along? He failed to make a fortune and become well-off, and even lost the copper he borrowed from Li Li.
Shen Tang was so angry that he opened the curtain of the gambling stall without looking back.
Kang Shi looked at her back and stepped forward to catch up.
After leaving the residence where the hidden gambling stall was located, Shen Tang frowned at first, and then relaxed his brows, replaced by a look of determination. She ordered Kang Shi in a calm voice.
"Ji Shou, take people to knock down this gambling stall!"
Kang Shi: "???"
Shen Tang continued to patch things up as if trying to cover up the situation.
“It’s not that I’m stingy and vindictive, but Ji Shou and Yuan Liang are right when they say that gambling is not a good deed. Many of these gamblers work in the southwest corner during the day. Common people only earn one or two days of food and clothing by doing heavy physical work every day. If you have some spare money, why don’t you lose it here! You must not encourage this evil trend! Ji Shou, do you think this is true?”
He thought over his words again and again.
Hmm——
What I said makes sense.
She did this all to save these gamblers who were seduced by gambling! It’s not too late to make amends!
It’s not because I was hit by my own bad luck.
"Well, my lord, what you said makes sense."
Kang Shi nodded again.
“Very reasonable!”
Although the street is not as warm as the gambling stalls, the air flowing into the tip of the nose is fresh, and the coolness cools down Shen Tang's swollen brain. She frowned at the empty purse.
Worrying about how to regain my strength.
It's not that she doesn't have money. As long as she asks, she can still get some pocket money from the prison. However, Shen Tang feels unhappy because the money she didn't earn with her own hands always feels like it's not hers. The reconstruction of Fugu City required money, even a dozen copper coins, which she was reluctant to embezzle.
As for covering the note with force?
This is even worse.
Common people think that the note is valuable.
But she knew exactly how valuable this thing was.
“Hey, Ji Shou.”
“What’s wrong, Lord?”
“I want to find some side work.”
For example, pick up your old job?
Qishan [(_)]: Don’t come over! ! !
