067 Street Gambling
"Jiang Qi, what are you looking at? Do you want to invite me to dinner?"
Wei Beibei curled her lips, pushed the bicycle over, quietly poked Jiang Qi in the back, and whispered behind him.
Seeing Jiang Qi's interested expression and eyes shining, she was actually a little worried that this guy who was curious about everything would get excited and gamble a bit.
"Hey, wait a minute. I'll watch the fun first. This thing looks pretty fun. If you don't guess correctly, you'll lose a hundred yuan, but if you win, you'll get four times as much. This is a huge lottery. Maybe there's someone out there.
You can make a small fortune if you're not careful!"
Jiang Qi turned around and saw that it was Wei Beibei who stabbed her. She couldn't help but smile and said something simple, then quickly turned her attention back to the gambling game.
"Come! Come! A new game has begun! The old rules are, bet one hundred, and the bonus will be four times! Keep your eyes open, whoever catches your eye will make a lot of money——.
When the stall owner saw that two young people, a man and a woman, were surrounding him, he couldn't help shouting even harder. In order to attract more people's attention, he immediately started a new round.
"Left, I will continue to be left! If you don't believe it, you won't win every time."
"Right! I will change to the right this time!"
"Well, brother, you're in luck, I decided to go with you..."
The ones who always follow the booing are the three men and one woman dressed similarly who surround the stall owner. Before the stall owner has finished speaking, they can't wait to create a thrilling, exciting and exciting atmosphere.
…
"Little brother, after watching it for so long, why don't you give it a try?"
The stall owner who was surrounded by everyone secretly looked around and found that after two or three rounds, although there were many curious people around him, except for a few "sitters" specially arranged by him, almost everyone stayed away.
Yuan, obviously wary of this kind of street "gambling".
At this moment, he suddenly saw Jiang Qi moving forward, looking completely attracted. He couldn't help but smile secretly, knowing that the young man in front of him was probably already eager to give it a try.
"One hundred at a time?"
Jiang Qi smiled coquettishly, and rubbed her palms excitedly, then pointed at the gambling game on the ground, slowly stretched out a finger, and asked with excitement.
"Yes, one hundred is the bet. After buying it, I will put a coin into one of the bowls... and after a while, you have to guess which bowl the coin is in. If you lose, it only costs one hundred, but once it starts moving, you have to guess which bowl the coin is in.
If you guess correctly, hehe, you can get four times immediately!"
The middle-aged stall owner felt that something was going on this time when he saw the look in Jiang Qi's eyes.
However, what he is worried about now is whether the young man dressed as a student in front of him has one hundred yuan in his hand.
Although he seems easy to deceive, if he doesn't have money in his hands, he obviously won't get any benefits.
"Uh, really? It sounds pretty exciting, but I didn't bring any money today. Let's see if I can borrow it from a friend first."
Jiang Qi smiled naively, then turned around and smiled at Wei Beibei: "Beibei, do you have a hundred yuan in your hand? Let me try your luck."
"Uh, what, you really want to play this!"
Wei Beibei's heart skipped a beat. Unexpectedly, the scene she was most worried about finally came.
Although judging from her family background, it was not a problem to have three to five hundred dollars in pocket money at any time, but she was still extremely unhappy about lending it to Jiang Qi to play this liar game.
"Uh, do you have it? If so, just lend it to me temporarily and I will return it to you when you return to school tomorrow."
Jiang Qi saw Wei Beibei standing there blankly, neither saying yes nor saying no, so she could only blush and asked shamelessly.
"……have."
Wei Beibei saw that many people onlookers started to cast strange looks at the two of them, and she couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, so she had to reluctantly take out her wallet, her lips trembled, and she was still a little embarrassed.
She wanted to say something more to Jiang Qi, but when she saw the middle-aged stall owner staring directly at her, she immediately didn't dare to say anything. She sighed silently and obediently took out a banknote from it.
"Wow, it turns out you have so many, haha. If you don't mind, I'll borrow another hundred!"
When Jiang Qi saw the colorful items in Wei Beibei's wallet, a greedy light suddenly appeared in her eyes. Before Wei Beibei could agree, she took another one out of it.
You damn Jiang Qi! I think you are possessed!
Seeing another picture of "Grandpa Mao" being innocently snatched away, Wei Beibei's face turned anxious, and she felt like calling him a scoundrel.
No wonder no one of these "problem students" wants to associate with them. As expected, their bad qualities are revealed at the critical moment...
Seeing him completely hopeless, Wei Beibei couldn't help but start to wonder whether she was right or wrong to go out with him today.
"Hey, now that I have money, let me give it a try."
Jiang Qi glanced at the greedy look in the stall owner's eyes, pretended not to notice it, and swayed back and forth nervously for a few times before squatting down again.
"Okay! A new game begins - you can choose your left or right, you've got it right! Let's go -"
The gambling stall owner's voice changed when he shouted. After some simple preparations, he picked up a coin and dropped it into a certain porcelain bowl. The two bowls rotated rapidly, which made people dizzy.
"Bet! One hundred at a time!"
After a while, the stall owner pressed the big bowl firmly with both arms and let out a long groan.
"sit!"
"I choose left too! This time I looked very carefully, it's definitely there."
Those who are eager to take action are always the two with the loudest voices!
To say that these people have a lot of eyes, I really overestimate them. It is obvious that a few silent bets are more convincing, but they always go to extra steps and make some self-righteous asides, which makes people feel that there is serious suspicion at a glance.
.
"Oh? Since you all chose the left, then I will choose the right. Someone has to lose and win to balance it out."
Jiang Qi smiled. Seeing that no one was holding any more money, she suddenly leaned forward and placed a hundred-dollar bill on the "right" mark on the ground...
"Open! The coin is on the right - haha, the young man wins! Congratulations, these four hundred yuan are now yours!"
The stall owner once again lost a hundred yuan in this round, but he still showed no displeasure on his face. He opened his pocket and immediately generously handed Jiang Qi four hundred yuan.
"Young man, do you want to do it again? I think you are very lucky today!"
"Come! Of course! I won so much at once, so naturally I want to have some fun! With your lucky words, my luck looks really good today!"
Jiang Qi excitedly grasped the four hundred yuan in her hand, with a look of fascination on her face, just like a greedy gambler who got a taste of the sweetness and got out of control.
"Jiang Qi!"
When Wei Beibei saw Jiang Qi's expression, he became really anxious. When he saw that he was ready to place a bet again, he quickly sneaked back behind Jiang Qi, tugged on his clothes, pursed his lips and said firmly to him.
Shaked his head.
It is said that when young people see novel things for the first time, it is enough to gamble and have fun. Now they are lucky enough to win and continue to play without leaving. This is obviously a big fool.
As the saying goes, what wins first is the paper, and what is won later is the money. Let people taste the sweetness first and wait for others to fall into it before cheating. This kind of gambling is not uncommon even in some popular movies and TV series.
