Chapter 305: Betting on Horses (1)(1/2)
Ines Fernand was a little panicked when he was being dragged. He tried his best to hold out his greasy chest and shouted: "I am a member of the Roman Mission! You can't pull me!"
Du Liu, the leader of Dongcheng, had a long and thin face, and his triangular eyes flashed fiercely from time to time. Hearing Ines' call, he snorted coldly.
The companion heard Mr. Liu's cold snort and slapped the drunkard in the face: "You guys can't understand what I'm saying? I'm asking you to make a fortune. Aren't you ruined? Don't you want the money if you have it?"
After hearing this, Ines's brain, which was groggy due to drunkenness, became clearer. He stopped trying to break away, stood still and said, "What do you mean?"
Du Liu said nothing, shook his head, and pointed to a tea stall outside the alley entrance. Several people filed to the tea stall, chose a table, and sat down on the benches on the four sides.
Dr. Tea laughed along with him, walked over, nodded and bowed and said: "Sixth Master, you are so rich that you have stepped on a humble ground. I am so happy! What do you want to drink? Scented tea or black tea? Don't look at me.
The stall is small, and I have all the dim sum in the Imperial Kitchen - Shaqima! Would you like to have a plate to try?"
Du Liu took out a shining silver dollar from his sleeve, threw it to the tea doctor and said: "Give this barbarian a share, and then make us a pot of good tea, and reward you with the rest."
Dr. Tea's mouth was almost crooked with joy, he caught the silver dollar and said: "Hey, my Sixth Master! You have opened my eyes today! I heard about this silver dragon, and today
See you again!"
After saying that, Dr. Tea held the silver dollar between his thumb and forefinger and blew on it: "Hey! It's really buzzing!"
He greeted his servants, brewed two pots of fine tea, and set a table with fried beans, pea cakes and other snacks. He himself cut two plates of Shaqima and brought two more plates
Food similar to drum pod style.
He rubbed his hands and said with a smile: "Sixth Master! This Shaqima is greasy and rich in sugar. Try this. A little secret recipe passed down from our ancestors, five-spice peanuts! This thing used to be from the southern barbarians in Guangdong, and there have been more of it in the capital in the past two years.
, this thing can squeeze out oil, and it tastes delicious! Try it, taste it."
A smile appeared on Du Liushou's face and he said, "You are not enough to talk too much. Are your ancestors from Cantonese?"
“My eight generations of ancestors are all from Beijing!”
...
Dr. Cha flattered him and saw that Du Liu wanted to talk to Ines, so he and the boy hid at the other end of the stall knowingly.
Du Liu stared at Ines, who was munching on snacks, and tapped his fingers on the table: "Are you so poor that you are so poor? You can't even afford to eat? Do you want to come to this alley?"
Ines showed a wry smile and said: "I pawned my big pocket watch, today." Du Liu frowned and said: "You have no money at all?" Ines touched the sleeve of his leather jacket, took out three silver dollars and said: "
All the belongings. Everything else was lost.”
"Hey, you bastard has a serious gambling habit."
Ines wiped her face, picked up the tea cup in front of her, put the contents in her mouth down smoothly, grinned and said: "You know what? I lose all the time, whether it's playing mahjong, throwing dice, or throwing copper coins - even if it's
Even if you play poker, you will lose, and poker is the game we brought!”
Du Liu smiled after hearing this: "Then do you know how you lost?" Ines shook his head and said: "I don't know, I think God has abandoned me, it seems."
Du Liu took out three dice from his pocket, emptied a small bowl of melon seeds, and threw the dice into it casually. He heard a few dings, but they were all facing up with the red side.
Ines yelled: "Kill them all! God, I didn't place a bet. Fortunately." Du Liu smiled: "You are quite stupid, you barbarian. Let's see!" He picked up the dice in the bowl and played again.
I threw it away casually, and this time it turned out to be three sixes.
"Leopard!" Ines screamed strangely again, then turned pale and said, "Are you saying I fell into a trap?" Du Liu and his companions stared at him and nodded jokingly.
Ines hit her forehead hard and said: "Damn it, I'm a big fool! Of course I fell into a trap, a person's luck will not always be so bad!"
Du Liu smiled and said: "The game you entered is called "Yang Gu". The casino and the gamblers around you are all pretending to deceive you - how many have you lost in the past six months?"
Ines said with a pale face: "Fifteen hundred ducats, roughly, I calculated, thirteen hundred taels of gold, almost - I've borrowed them all from people in the mission."
Du Liu's eyes lit up when he heard this. He smiled and said, "Whose family did you gamble in this alley?"
Ines pointed toward the alley: "It's a courtyard inside that Ruyi Building - sir, I can take you there after you take a shower."
Du Liu lifted him up from the boarding, put his arms around his shoulders and said, "You are my good friend. You have been deceived. I will seek justice for you. No problem." Ines nodded repeatedly and said: "
Of course, thank you for your help."
"I want 80% of the money that will come out. Do you have any questions?"
After hearing this, Ines couldn't help but plead: "Sir, I owe a lot of debt. If you give me half, I can get through this difficulty."
Du Liu snorted coldly after hearing this, and the companion beside him raised his hand, making Ines shrink back in fright. The companion said: "You are a barbarian, you eat jujubes for nothing and you still dislike the big core?"
Ines said: "You are helping me because you are actually hoping that I can find support from the adults in the Ministry of Etiquette - I should get half of it." When it came to money, his words suddenly became fluent and he used fewer inverted sentences.
.
Du Liu laughed happily, patted his cheek gently and said: "You are not stupid, how did you get trapped? Okay, since you understand, I will give you half!"

Dr. Tea laughed along with him, walked over, nodded and bowed and said: "Sixth Master, today you are a noble person and have stepped into a humble place. I am so happy! What do you want to drink? Scented tea or black tea? Don't look at me.

The thing can squeeze oil out and tastes delicious! Try it, taste it."

Ines said with a pale face: "Fifteen hundred ducats, roughly, I calculated, thirteen hundred taels of gold, almost - I've borrowed them all from people in the mission."

, if you give me half, I can get through this difficulty."
Du Liu snorted coldly after hearing this, and his companion raised his hand, which made Ines shrink back in fright. The companion said: "You are a barbarian, you eat jujube for nothing and you still dislike the big core?" Ines didn't dare to say anymore.
Du Liu led Ines into the alley and said as he walked: "You fool, people are betting on horse racing now - where are the serious casinos? It's not unfair for you to be stabbed in the head!"
.......
When Du Liu led Ines into the casino to seek justice, in the palace of Prince Zhou in the northeast corner of the capital, a man dressed as a scholar was sitting in Prince Zhou's study drinking tea. Opposite him, the fat prince sitting in the main seat was holding a cup of tea.
I am writing a manuscript and reading it over and over again.
