Chapter 134: It’s better to spread wealth
Zuo Chen couldn’t help but take a second look at this wonderful pair.
From his perspective, most of the good people with no filth in them came to do business in this area, or they looked like they were poor at first sight and barely had enough to eat.
The former is just here to do business, and as long as he has done nothing wrong, he will naturally have no bad temper; the latter is probably an ordinary person who is unlucky, and accidentally came to this village and was deceived. Er Jing.
Those who look like veterans of the gambling village, none of them who hang out here all year round are clean, like the wealthy young man, who looks like a veteran of the casino and is also clean...
This is the only one.
Is there some unique trick? Can it make people throw away their turbid energy?
My eyes swept around the young man.
The fan in his hand is not an extraordinary object. It is engraved with prescriptions for avoiding disasters. It should be used to save lives.
The small bag hanging on the waist is not a mortal thing. It is printed with a magic formula similar to Zuo Chen's bamboo basket, but of course it is much weaker.
There seemed to be several treasures hidden in his arms, and without exception, they were all items for avoiding disasters and escaping.
As for him...
Not even acquired, he is only a little better than the banker's man.
Restore kidney deficiency.
But after looking around, Zuo Chen still saw a strange aura in his body.
It didn't seem to be something that belonged to him, but rather seemed to have been implanted by someone. It was neutral, with neither malice nor kindness, like steel.
I’ve never seen it before, and Zuo Chen doesn’t know what it is.
I heard him say to the scholar again:
“Brother Han, aren’t you short of money to treat your sister? So I brought you here. This is a good place. You need to throw the silver coins on the table and play with the dice a little bit You can make a lot of money just by playing. And you don’t have to pay for it if you lose. I’ll pay for it all!” He asked again:
"Brother Zhou, what should we do? I haven't seen a gambling house in this village."
"Hey! Brother Han, gambling is not allowed here, and even if it is opened, gambling is not allowed. There is too much money, how can we get enough money to save your sister? Next, we have to go to the other side of the river to do something big!"
Mr. Zhou closed his fan and moved toward it. Pointing in the direction of the running river, he followed the direction of his fan and looked there. Scholar Han scratched his head in confusion:
"How are we going to cross such a big river? ? I didn't see the boatman either. "
"The boat doesn't go along this shore, but along the other shore. It's a big flower boat. You can go on it and have fun with it if you buy a ticket. "With the company of a beautiful woman, you can reach your destination in an hour's ride," Mr. Zhou introduced.
Shusheng Han took a look at the river which was not too wide:
“The river is neither fast nor wide? You actually have to walk on it for an hour?”
Master Zhou choked on his words. , he rolled his eyes sideways at his new friend, and finally made a comment:
“I don’t understand the style.”
Han Shusheng: “?”
< br>
Shusheng Han really didn't know what Mr. Zhou meant by "style". After all, he was really poor and had not enjoyed a good life.
He sighed and asked Mr. Zhou: "Brother Zhou, although it's not my place to say this, but... why do you have to give me the money through gambling?"
< br>"Ha, I knew you were going to ask." Mr. Zhou said with a smile on his face: "I have made a lot of friends before, and I have to give them money to come here to play."
"Why? Huh?”
“Because it’s fun.”
"Ah?" Shusheng Han didn't know what kind of expression he should use.
“I am not short of money, but I feel that life is boring!” Mr. Zhou laughed, opened the fan that said “I was born to be rich”, and fanned it twice, looking happy: "It is true that giving you money directly can help you, but that is so boring. The bond between you and me only ends here. How can we bring you here to socialize as deeply as I did?
"I I have done painting, hunting, playing in Gou Lan, and listening to Li Yuan, but none of them were interesting. Only at the end of the game did I realize that gambling is still interesting!
"Of course I know that gambling is not good and will harm people, but if I don't harm others, then it's fine! Just be happy!"
But Scholar Han still doesn't understand: "Then why doesn't Brother Zhou open his own bookmaker?"
"That's just playing with yourself. It's really meaningless."
Han Shusheng really couldn't understand Mr. Zhou's thoughts, so he could only shut up.
Zuo Chen, who had listened to the whole process, looked at the young master up and down.
What he said just now made Zuo Chen think of the fishing guys he met in his previous life, but this young man’s gameplay was a bit weirder.
Is he a money-splitting boy with special ideas?
This is how Fuyuan came about.
Looking at the mixed group of people around him again, and remembering the word "spreading wealth", Zuo Chen's mind turned slightly, and an idea came to his mind.
So he waved, called Cai Yi over, and whispered a few words to Cai Yi.
After hearing this, Cai Yi was slightly startled:
"Taoist Master, is this okay?"
"Don't worry, nothing will go wrong."
As he said that, he took out the basket on the donkey cart and took out two slings of money.
Untie the rope in the middle of the copper coins, separate them two, three, and five, and face the 50% that guarantees a safe and secure way to avoid disasters. The 30% guarantees that you will lose every bet.
The last 20% is used to cure diseases and eliminate disasters.
After doing this, Zuo Chen wrapped it in three bags and handed them to Caiyi's hand.
"Go get it."
Caiyi thought about it for a moment, and she also had some thoughts in her heart.
So he asked Zuo Chen for some money, and immediately ran to a nearby store, rented a table there, and placed it on the road with the most people coming and going.
Put three money bags on top, pinch out a small bean, and lift it up from under your feet.
The next moment, the country aunt who was still a little earthy has turned into a beautiful beauty dressed in brocade.
During her transformation process, no one looked at her, and after the transformation, Cai Yi's appearance and figure also attracted the attention of many passers-by.
Cai Yi coughed slightly, and then sang a opera tune directly:
"The colors are colorful, the clothes are beautiful, an auspicious opera sung by a little girl, today all relatives and friends are here , my friends, I’m just here to play a little gambling show and get some good luck for you all!”
The tone was so attractive that many passers-by on the road around me were attracted by it, even those who were just talking just now were attracted by it! Mr. Zhou, who was having sex with his brother Han, also cast his eyes on Cai Yi.
Mr. Zhou is also a natural admirer, so he directly said:
"Beautiful girl, why are you setting up the table and putting the money bag here? What's the good fortune?"
"If you come to the gambling village today, you are naturally gambling."
Caiyi put the small gambling cup she just borrowed on the table again and said with a smile:
"My little lady, I am here to spread my wealth today. I will definitely lose more and win less, but I don’t want to worry about anything." Note, only one penny. The money in my purse has been blessed and can ensure your luck."
After hearing her words, people on the street came. interest.
They came to this village just to play and have fun. They had to gamble anyway, so they might as well come here to get a good fortune.
And it’s only a penny, so even if you lose, it won’t affect anything.
Immediately a man came out:
“Little girl, let me play with you first!”
Go back to the table and take out a penny. , photographed on the table, Cai Yi also glanced at him and smiled.
However, I don't know why, but I always feel that this girl's eyes are a little strange.
For a moment, it felt like I was being seen through from the inside out!
I trembled subconsciously.
However, this wonderful feeling disappeared immediately.
I just touched my chin, it was probably my imagination. When the gambling officially started, there were not that many games. It was just a competition, whoever is bigger wins, and the outcome is determined by one round.
The dice cup fell and Caiyi lost.
With a smile, he took out a copper coin from the biggest money bag and handed it to the man in front of him.
The man laughed twice after receiving the answer: "With your good words, I will definitely win a lot of money tonight!"
Seeing that someone has already started, the passers-by may follow. More or less people gathered around Caiyi.
Caiyi also doesn't refuse anyone who comes, and he gambles with everyone he meets.
And soon the group of passers-by discovered that this girl had never won once, and every time she opened a cup, she would win.
It was only then that I was sure that it was basically sending good luck.
At this point, more and more people gathered around.
After betting for more than ten games, Caiyi simply threw the bet aside and handed out copper coins to the person in front of him.
Even the ritual sense of gambling is gone.
The people who took the copper coins were all smiling, feeling like they had made a huge profit.
With the blessing of a beauty tonight, isn’t it possible to win a soft hand?
Even those men who only come here to buy goods and don’t do much gambling are also interested in coming over to beg for a copper coin, just to get a good fortune or to show off to their children when they go home. Something wonderful happened tonight.
Zhou Gongzi and Han Shusheng were no exception. They came to Caiyi's table and took a copper coin in each hand.
After getting the copper coins, both of them could feel the faint warmth coming from above, as if this thing was really a treasure.
On the other hand, after taking the copper coins, Shusheng Han’s eyes still stayed on Cai Yi, and he murmured with emotion for a long time:
“What a beautiful girl.”
"What? Brother? Do you like her?" Mr. Zhou laughed and reached out to pat Han Shusheng on the shoulder:
"She is indeed pretty. I can tell who she is. It’s not too simple, she should be the kind of person who has seen big storms. If you want to pursue her, you still have to work hard to gain fame.”
Shusheng Han thought for a while and sighed:
“It’s more important to cure my sister’s illness first.”
Although they gave up the idea, Mr. Zhou and Shusheng Han still looked at each other more or less. Don't stop at Caiyi.
The money in Cai Yi’s hands quickly increased.
The biggest bag has been completely emptied. These gamblers seem to be very interested in this kind of lottery, and they are most interested in getting it.
There is still one bottom layer left in the bag in the middle. Most of the gambling addicts who are not that serious have basically taken a copper coin and feel that they will definitely win tonight.
As for the last small bag, it was the least distributed, with half of it left.
After all, it was already getting late, so the traveling traders still had to leave the woods and go home as soon as possible. Coming here to get the copper coins was a bit of a waste of time.
Seeing that no one else came, Cai Yi simply closed the stall, found an alley and walked back to Zuo Chen happily, looking like he was asking for credit.
“Well done.”
Zuo Chen smiled and praised Caiyi.
Scholar Han not far away did not see this scene, but Mr. Zhou saw it clearly.
He couldn't help being surprised.
From the moment Caiyi entered the back alley to the time she walked out of it, it didn't take many breaths in total.
This is capable!
His heart warmed up, and he started to make some plans to make friends. Then he stretched out his hand to grab Han Shusheng and walked towards Zuo Chen and them.
Scholar Han still had a confused look on his face. Even when he was next to Zuo Chen and the two of them, he didn't realize what his brother was doing by dragging him here.
When his eyes fell on Cai Yi, after being stunned for a moment, he came back to his senses and was also shocked.
Zuo Chen glanced sideways at Mr. Zhou up and down, and said with a smile:
"Good sir."
"Hello, Master Taoist, after Zhou Xun, Zhou Xun, a salt merchant in Youzhou, this is my new brother Han Bai."
After introducing himself, Zhou Miaobo looked at him with burning eyes. He looked at Zuo Chen and at Cai Yi next to him:
"Is the Taoist a practicing person?"
"You know a little bit about some tricks."
"Really "Yes!" Zhou Miao's eyes brightened: "I wonder if I can show you a few tricks?"
"It's not a street trick, please forgive me for rejecting it."
After hearing Zuo Chen's words, Zhou Miao immediately realized that he had just made a mistake, and hurriedly apologized:
"Taoist priest, I'm so sorry. , I have been fond of all kinds of wonderful tricks since I was a child, and I can’t help it when I see it. I’m sorry for you.”
After that, I took out a banknote from my arms and wanted to go to the left. Chen stuffed it in his hands.
Zuo Chen took a look.
A share of thirty taels.
Good guy, it’s as much as an average family’s income in five or six years!
He waved his hand helplessly and declined the banknote. Zuo Chen turned around and asked:
"Are you two going to the gambling village soon?"
"Indeed. ." Mr. Zhou nodded, as if he suddenly came back to his senses, and looked at Zuo Chen with some confusion:
"Taoist Master, are you also going to the gambling village? Is it true for a monk to..."
He didn't say the second half of the sentence, but the meaning was very obvious:
Is it true for a monk to do this? Not so good?
Zuo Chen smiled nonchalantly and said, "I really want to go. Mr. Zhou, does he know when the boat will arrive?"
"There should be about a stick of incense left. Zhou Miao calculated the time and replied.
"That's it."
After thinking for a few seconds, Zuo Chen suddenly smiled and said:
"The girl beside me and I still have some things to do. It's inconvenient to carry a donkey, but Mr. Zhou can Can't you hold a stick of incense for me first?"
"Of course it doesn't matter!" Zhou Miao is enthusiastic, and looking at a donkey is not a difficult task, so he immediately agreed.
Zuo Chen got off the donkey, took colorful clothes and walked towards the river. He waved and smiled and nodded at Zhou Miao from time to time. Zhou Miao also waved his hand eagerly, saying "You're welcome." It’s absolutely safe to do my job” expression.
Caiyi was a little confused and asked in Zuo Chen's ear: "Taoist Master, let's go directly without waiting for the boat?"
"There is no need to wait for the boat to come." Zuo Chen said with a smile:
“One stick of incense is probably enough time.”
……
After Zuo Chenyuan left, Zhou Miao also focused on the donkey again.
"Taoist priests riding donkeys, well, it's quite interesting."
He muttered a few words to himself, but suddenly found that the donkey looked at him slightly sideways.
Donkey opened his mouth, and a rough male voice came out from his mouth:
"Boy, gambling is not good."
Zhou Miao: "??"
Han Bai: "!?"
