Chapter 92 Let’s play a game
At night, Frederick came to the tavern downstairs. The tavern was very lively, but there was a mix of dragons and snakes. Except for waiters and proprietresses, serious women would not appear here, children. Nor should it.
He found an empty table and imitated an adult and asked the waiter for a glass of wine without water.
As a result, the young waitress remained motionless.
At this time, the customer at the table next to him touched the gluteus maximus of the waiter on his side, which elicited a scream, followed by a burst of laughter.
Frederick looked at the waiter next to him and the waiter on his side. The one next to him had a flower tied to his ear, but the one here didn't.
He stretched out his hand with a puzzled look on his face and said, "Do I have to touch you before you bring me a drink?"
The young lady burst into laughter. When she came out, she could understand some daily Pulan language, and she said with a smile: "Sir, it's too early for you to drink. Do you want to drink milk? We have sweet milk imported by Wesenling here. It tastes good, and you can become smarter after drinking it."
At this time, the guest at the table next to him said slyly: "Oh, Weisen's milk is not as delicious as Wei's milk."
The waitress immediately turned back with a frosty face and said coldly: "This guest, please respect yourself."
The guest was stunned for a moment, a little angry, and the waiter he had just touched immediately came over and sat on his lap, said a few words in his ear, and then the two of them went upstairs.
Frederick was stunned and understood what was going on.
He said to the waiter: "Just milk, give me a glass."
Then the waiter smiled and asked him for 30 copper coins.
The corner of Frederick's mouth twitched and he meowed. Manuai's bottled milk with maltose was actually sold here, and the boss actually dared to increase the price by 6 times.
He took a few sips of milk, looked around curiously, and found that someone was indeed using the admission ticket as a bargaining chip.
This person's rules are very simple. You must first beat him by 10 Kreuz and then win again to get the ticket.
While Frederick was thinking about how to get close to the man in the village, a gadget seller came over and sold a rough wooden dragonfly to Frederick.
Frederick spoke a few words to him in Pulan. Fortunately, this businessman traveled all over the country and could speak Pulan.
This rough wooden dragonfly was less expensive than a glass of milk. Frederick bought it and then curiously asked the man who was betting on the ticket if he was playing a game.
Two minutes later, another person left helplessly after losing a lot of money. Frederick sat on the vacant chair with a curious look on his face.
The person sitting at the table is a middle-aged man with a beard and a strong build. He looks very difficult to mess with.
"Let's play." The dealer waved his hand like a fly to drive Frederick away.
The businessman recognized the banker and accepted Frederick's money to serve as an interpreter, so he said: "Oh, this little gentleman wants to play with you, so just play with him. "
The dealer gave him a roll of his eyes and said angrily: "Asshole, you can comfort him when he cries."
The businessman's face immediately showed a lewd expression, and he whispered in the dealer's ear: "This child came with his mother and a little girl bodyguard. He lives upstairs. If he cries, you can send him upstairs. "
The banker glared at the businessman and said angrily: "[Ansbach swears]! If you didn't still owe me money, I would slap you to death right now!"
< br>"Is it easy to mess with people who dare to travel far by themselves these days?"
The businessman said aggrievedly: "Oh, I didn't ask you to do it forcefully. Don't you have a few tickets? You don’t necessarily need money to buy it.”
A kind smile gradually appeared on the banker’s face, and he looked at Frederick carefully, thinking that his son must be so handsome, and his mother must be good. The rings on his hand looked quite valuable. He should be a businessman from other places. He would not lose money no matter what, so he immediately asked: "What is your name for this gentleman?"
After the businessman translated, Frederick replied: "My name is Charles."
He heard the conversation between the two people just now, but it didn't matter in his heart.
The banker asked again: "Did you come by yourself?"
Frederick replied obediently: "No, I came with my mother and sister."< br>
When the dealer heard that there was no one else, the smile on his face became even brighter. He pushed the dice and poker cards to the middle of the table and asked, "What do you want to play?"
He has dice and poker here. The dice are processed. When playing poker, someone will look at the cards from behind and make hints, specifically to deceive outsiders. Frederick pointed to the pile of silver coins on the table and said: "Let's play fetching coins. You grab a handful of coins and put them on the table. You and I take turns to take the coins to the side. You can take one to three at a time. Who can If you get the last one, you lose. The loser will give the winner a silver coin. What do you think?” A child's game is so simple, there is no reason why I should lose.
Frederick took out 6 silver coins from his pocket and lined them up in front of him, including two Kreuz silver coins, and the others were silver coins from Caledonia, in the Principality of Mainz. Got it.
After placing the coins, he rolled up his sleeves and said, "Let's get started."
The dealer followed his example and rolled up his sleeves, grabbed a handful of silver coins and spread them in the middle of the table, and then said: "Take it first."
Frederick counted the silver coins on the table, there were 19. So he put two coins aside.
The dealer wanted to end it quickly, so he put 3 silver coins aside, leaving 14 silver coins on the table.
Frederick pretended to think about it for a long time and took away 1 silver coin, leaving 13 coins.
The dealer thought for a moment and took away two coins, leaving 11 coins.
Then Frederick also took away two coins, leaving 9 coins.
The dealer took away another 3 coins, leaving 6 coins.
Then Frederick took away 1 piece, leaving 5 pieces.
At this time, the dealer's outstretched hand paused in mid-air, and suddenly realized that no matter how many coins he removed, he would be the loser.
He took away 3 coins in one last move, and Frederick took away 1 coin, leaving 1 silver coin alone in the middle of the table.
The banker was a veteran at the casino. He smiled and pushed a silver coin in front of Frederick, then returned all the silver coins to the basket, grabbed another handful and put them on the table.
At this moment, someone knocked on the door of Frederick's room.
Psyche opened the door and saw a waitress in the corridor. In the voice of some great harmony of life coming from the next room, she asked: "What's the matter?"
< br>The waitress who just sold milk to Frederick said anxiously: "Dear Madam, your son is gambling with others downstairs."
Psyche's expression did not change, she just asked : "Who are you betting with?"
The waitress was a little nervous and whispered: "He is the second boss of the Scorpion Gang in the city."
Psyche said "Oh" and said before closing the door: "It's okay, he came back after losing all his money. .”
The waiter was stunned for a moment and knocked on the door again.
"What's the matter?" Psyche opened the door and asked.
The waitress said anxiously: "Madam, that Scorpion Gang is not a good person. They will defraud you of all your money through gambling, owe you a lot of money, and then use a knife to force you to pay back the money!"
A smile appeared on Psyche's face and asked: "What's your name? How old are you this year?"
The waiter was stunned and replied: "My name is Lina, I am fifteen years old. "
"Lina from Ansbach." Psyche nodded, "I will remember you. Good people will be rewarded."
After that, she closed the door. opened the door.
Lina was stunned for a moment, stood there for a long time, turned her head to look at the room next to her that made some kind of noise, and finally sighed deeply, turned around and went downstairs.
When she returned downstairs, she found that the place had become very lively, with many people surrounding the table where the second boss of the Scorpion Gang was gambling.
Amidst the commotion, the second master let out an angry roar and punched the table hatefully.
Frederick took the silver coins he won with a bright smile on his face.
