Chapter 316 Chapter 316: Sports Events (7) [Seeking a monthly ticket]
Shen Tang stepped into this gambling stall with the mentality of "making a fortune and becoming well-off", with a cheerful smile on his pretty face.
If the background of this world can be visualized...
There are probably pink flowers floating in her background at the moment.
You can know the joy in her heart without looking at her eyes.
Kang knows the inside story: "..."
How should he open his mouth so that he can tactfully express to the lord that this trip will not only prevent him from making a fortune, but will actually make his situation worse? Will the already poor private coffers be hit hard?
Kang Shi wanted to say it several times.
But he swallowed the words several times because of some expectation.
ε=(ο｀*)))
Thinking about it, if this trip can make the protagonist completely quit gambling and truly understand the truth that "gambling is not a good karma", it would be a beautiful thing. Kang Shi lowered his eyelids, looking at the ponytail hair tip of the lord in front of him, thinking so and so.
It's a gambling stall, it's better to say it's a small gambling house.
The gambling stall is located in a simple dwelling in the deep alley.
Kang Shi looked at his lord meaningfully.
Tsk tsk.
The location of this gambling stall is really hidden enough.
I don't know how my lord got this position.
"My lord, wait a minute."
Kang Shi raised his hand to stop Shen Tang who wanted to enter.
"Let's take a look first."
After finishing speaking, he raised his hand to lift the dirty coarse cloth curtain that couldn't see its original color, and pushed open the wooden door. Although the dwellings are simple, the area is not small. The hot air was mixed with various smells, and the sound in the house was noisy.
Shen Tang poked his head in and looked around.
said in the mouth: "There are so many people."
Fluttered his finger on the tip of his nose.
There are a few wrinkles between the eyebrows: "The taste is also great."
The area of the residential area is not small, but if there are three or four short gaming tables with six or seven people around each table, it will be quite crowded. There are still a few groups of people playing cockfights, playing chess, and throwing pots in the corner.
Taking a quick look, there are everyone in the house.
She still has impressions of a few faces.
All are "workmates" on the construction site.
There are many people in the house, and the air is not very circulated.
Excitement came up, and some people even took off half of their sleeves in the heat, showing their arms, and looked intently at the gambling tools on the gaming table. Among them, the most people play dice. After all, this kind of game depends more on luck than IQ.
is more friendly to common people with low educational level.
"BIG! BIG! BIG! BIG!"
"Hey! Why is it so small?"
"This is the third time I've been younger, it's time to get bigger!" A certain gambler cursed and took out a "cake stick" and pressed it on.
"Come again!"
"That's right, aren't you still winning?"
"The next one must turn over!" The gambler counted the "notes" in his arms, gritted his teeth, and threw one, "Return the big one! Don't believe it, you can connect four small ones! Wait! Come on, your luck is as bad as your feet!"
A gambler joked with a smile: "What's the matter? Have you smelled it?"
"Bah! That's what Nai Gong said!"
The appearance of the two of Shen Tang did not attract attention.
There are a lot of gamblers who come and go every day, such as Shen Tang and Kang Shi, who are well-dressed, are not absent.
"Young Li, what do you want to play?"
Entering the house, he no longer called Shen Tang "Master".
If his identity is exposed, rumors about Shen Jun "lingering" at the gambling stall will spread in the streets and alleys before the next day. Bad guiding effect.
This matter, just come secretly.
Shen Tang wanted to play dice.
But each table is crowded with too many people.
She weighed her body and the smell of everyone, and chose the "unpopular" project with fewer people.
"What are they playing?"
Kang Shi glanced at him: "Play chess."
The so-called "playing chess" is that two people each hold a number of black and white chess pieces, place them on a corner of the board, and then flick the opponent's chess pieces with their fingers until one of the chess pieces is hit and taken out, then the loser is considered. Onlookers can bet on the outcome of the two.
The winning party can divide the losing party.
Small gambling stalls can't afford too good gambling equipment.
The so-called chess pieces are also quite simple and rough.
Kang Shi watched for a while and knew which side was going to lose, but he was not allowed to place a bet, nor could he intervene. His way of literati once caused the gamblers who had the winning chance to be turned against the wind.
The taste is hard to describe.
Shen Tang watched for a while to figure out the rules of the game.
"Isn't this similar to Gongxiqiu's marbles?" The difference is that Gongxiqiu is playing pearls the size of a longan, while these gamblers are playing stones that have been polished in black and white. Sex is not as big as a dice.
As for cockfighting and pot throwing...
Means nothing.
The latter is easy for martial arts practitioners, while the former will only remind Shen Tang of a hundred ways to cook chicken.
It seems that it is better to play dice.
"Is there anything you two want to play?" Shen Tang stood out among the rough gamblers. The handyman at the gambling stall showed a badly worn yellow tooth and greeted him with a smile, "We don't have anything here. Yes, do you want to play two games?"
Whether it is a gambling shop or a gambling stall, the focus is on the money of the gamblers, and the gamblers are their parents. The difference lies in whether they play big or small. Of course, if the gamblers can't restrain themselves, the end result will be the same.
Went bankrupt, sold children and prostitutes, even became a procuress, forcing women to work as prostitutes to earn money to pay off debts...
When Shen Tang asked Kang: "What do you think?"
Kang Shi: "Small bets are enjoyable, but big bets are harmful. Let's go after playing a few times. Going back too late will make my cousins worry."
Shen Tang nodded and rolled up his sleeves.
Led by the handyman, the two went to a gaming table with fewer people, and they also played dice. There are three dice in a dice cup, the dealer opens it after shaking, and calculates the number of points. Gamblers only need to place bets on the table, purely depending on luck.
The odds of big and small are half and half, and fortune depends on fate.
Of course, that's what they said.
As for what is tricky in it, the gamblers don't know, or their ability is not enough to find the trick.
Crossing his chest with his hands, Shen Tang leaned forward slightly, and looked at the opened dice cup, in which lay three shiny dice coated with pulp. As a result, the gamblers at this table are naturally happy and sad, and there are all kinds of beings.
She turned around and invited Kang Shi to sit down and play as well.
hey-hey-
This guy will lose every bet.
As long as you operate in reverse, you can win every bet!
Together, the two will be able to sweep the casino invincible!
Shen Tang seemed to have seen all the coins in the gambler's pockets fly into her pocket, and enthusiastically waved to Kang Shi.
Kang Shi smiled helplessly, and took out two pieces.
Shen Tang said: "You are too stingy."
What can two money do?
The handyman was also a little disappointed.
His salary is linked to the income per table.
This young man in a literati and Confucian shirt looked noble, not to mention one or two taels of silver, it should be a few pieces of silver, digging and searching for a long time before he found two coins, which really disappointed his expectations . So, he turned his gaze to Shen Tang.
According to Shen Tang, this should be a wealthy master.
The results of it?
Shen Tang also took out two copper coins.
Bet the opposite place.
Handyman: "..."
The dice size game is very simple.
Four to ten o'clock is small.
Eleven to seventeen o'clock is big.
If three or eighteen points are drawn, the dealer takes all.
In the eyes of many people, the size is half and half the probability. Always bet big or keep betting small. Even if you lose the previous few times, as long as you bet a small amount, you will not suffer serious losses. A flip.
Even if you don't make a lot of money, you won't lose a lot.
Just like the "big" gambler just now, he lost five or six "big cakes" before, and just opened the "big", he happened to bet on three "big cakes", all of a sudden Half of the money was paid back, and he bet on four "cake sticks" next time.
Amidst the shouts of all the gamblers, the dice cup was opened.
Three points, the dealer takes all.
Shen Tang: "???"
Kang Shi: "???"
Watching the banker take away their coins, Shen Tang vaguely felt bad, but didn't mutter anything.
After all, this is also considered "every bet is bound to lose", Kang Shi is right to lose, but the coins she bet on have also been eaten.
Kang Shi resisted the urge to touch his forehead.
"Are you still playing?"
Shen Tang asked back: "Why don't you play?"
She took Kang Shi to the gambling stall just to "make a fortune and go to a well-off society", not to give the gambling stall owner a turnover.
"Let me bet first this time, and you will bet later."
A new round of betting is about to begin.
Shen Tang quickly bet on "Xiao" with sharp eyesight.
After betting, he pouted at "big" when he rushed to Kang.
Kang Shi: “…”
He also vaguely had an ominous premonition.
But still follow the advice, but this time the shot is more picky.
He only took out a small copper coin.
Shen Tang clenched his fists expectantly.
The other gamblers screamed hoarsely about the size they chose, and she also murmured in a low voice, but when the dealer lifted the lid of the dice cup, the three neat "six" were almost dumbfounded. Shen Tang opened his mouth slightly in shock, and was speechless for a while.
"Last time three ones, this time three sixes???"
Is this a beaver? ? ?
Very not Beaver! !
According to the general routine of a gambling stall, shouldn't we wait for the fat sheep to get emotional and recklessly spend a lot of money, and then slaughter the customer with a knife? Shen Tang looked around at the "fat sheep" that didn't match up, except for the two of them, his face turned blue and pale.
Other gamblers also booed the dealer.
"What's going on here?"
"What about trouble? How could it be such a coincidence?"
As everyone knows, the banker is also confused.
It's not that he can't shake three or eighteen points, but the chance of success is not high, and it often takes several times to get lucky. I didn't use my hard-trained gambling skills twice just now, I just shook it casually, why did I just take it all?
had no choice but to smile mischievously: "Accident! What an accident!"
Shen Tang said: "One more round!"
The other gamblers followed suit: "One more round!"
"Yeah, don't delay, open again!" In addition, this group of old gamblers were well-informed, and there was an atmosphere of gambling booths inserted in the crowd, so everyone muttered a few words before uncovering the matter.
Shen Tang rolled up his sleeves again.
He took three bronze coins with a heroic movement.
Kang Shi shook his head helplessly.
He can already meet the result.
But still followed this game.
I thought this round would be a dramatic three or eighteen points, but who knew it was "big", and the protagonist bet "small" in this round, Kang Shi won. He collected the lost money from the dealer, and turned to look at the lord whose expression was about to crack.
whispered persuasion: "Why don't you go?"
Shen Tang bowed his head and counted the remaining half of the coins.
Air way: "Don't make a move this round, I'll do it!"
Kang Shi nodded slightly guilty.
"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 rounds in a row without believing in evil. In each round, he bet on "small" and a copper, and the result was that the dealer was either "three points" or "big". Listening to the twittering of other gamblers, the grievance in her heart almost overflowed.
The purse is empty.
Kang Shi coughed softly, and said in her ear: "It's time to go, I'm going back late, and it's difficult for others to ask."
Especially Qishan and Chu Yao, who like to ask questions whenever they encounter problems related to the lord, are even more difficult to fool. Kang Shi didn't want to be caught by Qishan to make him stumble.
Shen Tang grabbed his money bag into a ball.
Take a deep breath and suppress those emotions.
said: "Go, go, everything is not going well today."
I muttered in my heart.
Is my luck really that bad?
Even Kangshi's casino card bug's magical skill - "every bet is bound to lose" - can't move her? He failed to make a fortune and become well-off, and even lost the money he borrowed from Li Li.
Shen Tang was so angry that he lifted 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, then stretched his brows, replaced by a certain look of determination. Her voice calmly ordered Kang Shi.
"Ji Shou, you brought someone to destroy this gambling stall!"
Kang Shi: "???"
Shen Tang tried to cover it up and patched it up.
"It's not that I'm stingy for revenge, it's just that Ji Shou and Yuan Liang said it rightly, gambling is not a good karma. Many of these gamblers are ordinary people who work in the southwest corner during the day. I only earn food and clothing for a day or two through heavy physical work, and I have saved some spare money. Why do I have to lose here! This kind of unhealthy trend must not be encouraged! It must be severely cracked down! Ji Shou, what do you think? This reason?"
She turned her words back and forth in her heart.
Um-
What I said is well-founded.
She did this to save these gamblers who were bewitched by gambling! It's not too late to make up for it!
It wasn't because he was hit by his bad luck.
"Well, my lord is right."
Kang Shi nodded again and again.
"Very reasonable!"
Although the street is not as warm as the gambling booth, the air pouring into the nose is fresh, and the coolness cools down Shen Tang's swollen brain a lot. She frowned at the empty purse.
Worrying about how to restore energy.
It's not that there is no money, as long as she asks, she can still get some pocket money from the treatment office, but Shen Tang is upset, the money is not earned by herself, she always feels that it is not her own. The reconstruction of Fugu City requires money everywhere, even a dozen or so copper coins, and she is reluctant to embezzle it.
As for covering the note and still being weak?
This is even worse.
Common people think the notes are valuable.
But she knows exactly how valuable this thing is.
"Hey, Ji Shou."
"What's the matter, my lord?"
"I want to find a side job."
For example, pick up the old business?
Praying for goodness【(_)】: Don't come here! !
