"Haha, I hope Brother Baili can become such a majestic figure one day." Zhao Zheng said with a smile.
"That's not necessary. Our Luoshu Villa has no intention of competing in the world. As long as we can occupy a place, do business safely and make a little money, that's all. When my father usually teaches me, he doesn't treat me badly.
By imposing too high a demand, you are only asking me to maintain the status quo." Baili Liancheng waved his hand.
"The Luoshu Mountain Villa has a great cause and it is already good to be able to maintain the status quo."
"Yes, just maintaining the status quo is enough to give me a headache. There are many properties in the villa, and many people in the world have contacts. Every year, the list of New Moon Tea gifts alone is one foot long, which makes my eyes dazzled."
Li Liancheng smiled bitterly.
"Looking at you now, you don't look like a man from the world, but more like a little rich man."
"It would be better if he was really an ordinary little rich man. Wouldn't it be nice to go shopping and stroll around every day? Making money in the world is much harder than making money through ordinary means. All aspects must be taken into consideration." Baili Liancheng waved his hand depressingly.
, "Okay, let's not talk about this. Let's talk about something more relaxed. Isn't sister Zihua with you? Why is she nowhere to be seen? I asked around the villa and couldn't find out her whereabouts."
Zhao Zheng answered truthfully and told the whole story, starting with the girl being killed and ending with Zihua running to catch the thief. After explaining this, he spread his hands and said: "That's what happened. She ran to catch the thief with righteousness."
*Thieves, leave me alone and come here to fight."
He raped and killed several girls in a row and left bloody words on the wall. This kind of behavior was so bad that Baili Liancheng became more and more angry. He raised his eyebrows and slapped the table: "This is really unreasonable. This Qin Xing
It's too arrogant to commit so many murders. I will report this to my father tomorrow and ask him to mobilize our friends to catch Qin Xing, the thief. If we don't catch this thief, he will definitely do it again in the future.
Girls will be killed."
Zhao Zheng knew in his heart that the real culprit was someone else, but he couldn't tell anyone, so he could only hold it in his stomach and keep his anger inside. He originally hoped that Master Kong Yunjie and his apprentice, the real culprit, could be arrested, but now he has given up such naive thoughts.
Master and apprentice Kong Yunjie will never fall. Even if Qin Xing breaks out and exposes the scandal about the master and apprentice, no one will believe it. It is even less likely to shake the status of master and apprentice Kong Yunjie in the world.
For the sake of the overall situation, it is better to catch Qin Xing now. At least it can prevent Master and Disciple Kong Yunjie from harming others and reduce the casualties of innocent people. After Qin Xing is caught or killed, Master and Disciple Kong Yunjie will no longer need to use the method of killing people.
The way is framed and framed.
Although this result is very frustrating, there is no other way.
Master and disciple Kong Yunjie are not the only people in this world who have done bad things but got away with it.
There are too many bastards who wear human skin but do nothing. In this evil world of five turbidities, we don’t know when we will become clear.
"It would be best if you could help. As you just said, only by catching Qin Xing can we prevent the innocent girl from being killed." Zhao Zheng said helplessly.
"Well, this matter is all on me. How can I, a tall and dignified man, sit idly by and ignore something like this? If I don't have the ability, that's it. As long as I have a little bit of power, I will definitely help to the end.
Baili Liancheng said solemnly.
As the saying goes, birds of a feather flock together, but everyone who can get close to Zhao Zhengchu is basically passionate. This is true for everyone at Hongchen Inn, Feiguhuahua, Zihua, and Baili Liancheng.
It makes Zhao Zheng quite gratified. Meeting a few close friends in life is something worth celebrating.
The servant brought the tea, and Baili Liancheng took two sips of the tea to calm down his anger.
Zhao Zheng also drank half a cup. When he thought of the taste of New Moon Tea, he felt that it was really embarrassing to treat Baili Liancheng with such ordinary tea. He might as well drink some wine instead, and it would be more enjoyable to relieve the boredom in his heart.
.He called the servant. He asked the servant to take away the tea and replace it with wine.
The strong drink went down my throat, and I felt much better.
After a few glasses of wine, Zhao Zheng said with emotion: "Brother Baili, things often go wrong in life, which is so regrettable. People will always encounter things that they want to do but can't do.
If you go ahead and do it, you will get a bloody head. If you give up and violate your own principles, what should you do?"
"What you said touched my heart. How can anyone not have some unpleasant things? Others are envious of me as a young master, thinking that I live a good life. How could they know that I, a young master, also have difficulties? So big
My property is simply a burden to me. What I want is to live a free and easy life, not stay in the villa all year round and read the account books, or socialize with the old men with beards all over their chests every day." Baili.
Liancheng took a sip of his wine as he spoke, "After hearing these words, some people may say that I am hypocritical, that I am insatiable, and that I behave well even though I get an advantage. In fact, this is not the case. I am not a greedy person.
What I want is not gold and silver, but freedom. If I could abandon that big villa and go out alone, with my martial arts, I would never die of hunger wherever I go! But this is simply a luxury wish for me. If I dare
If I leave the villa alone, my father will have to break my legs."
Zhao Zheng smiled bitterly. What he said was that he could not expose the hypocrites of master and disciple Yunjie, but Baili Liancheng was involved in him. It seemed that it really echoed the old saying, every family has its own scriptures that are difficult to recite.
. He couldn't talk about Kong Yunjie's master and apprentice, so he could only follow his friend's words and said: "It is true that your family's property cannot be thrown away, otherwise it would be a pity. If you are really annoyed, you can find more after you take over."
A few capable helpers, let them help you share the chores of the villa, so as to give you some freedom."
"That's the only way." Baili Liancheng nodded, and then looked at Zhao Zheng, "How about you help me in the future? I am very confident in you. If you are willing to help me take care of the villa, let me give you five points
I can give you one of my property."
"Haha, what you said is quite generous. If your father hears these words, he will be so angry that he blows his beard and stares."
"I'm not kidding you, I'm telling you the truth. If you are willing to be my right-hand man, I will definitely not treat you badly."
Zhao Zheng saw that Baili Liancheng was speaking solemnly, so he replied seriously: "I will consider this matter. If I have no way out in the future, I will definitely go to you."
"Well, the door of Luoshu Villa will always be open to you. Whenever you come, I will let you be the housekeeper. Any man who speaks out will be a nail in his mouth. Come on, let's make a toast."
Raise your glass.
"Okay, cheers!" Zhao Zheng also raised his glass, touched it lightly, and drank the wine in one gulp.
Putting down the glass of wine, Baili Liancheng wiped his mouth and changed the subject: "Zhao Zheng, you just mentioned what unsatisfactory life you mentioned, did you encounter any trouble? If you encounter trouble, be sure not to talk about it.
Tell me, as long as I can do my best, I will do whatever it takes to be a brother."
Zhao Zheng was moved after hearing this. He weighed the weight between Kong Yunjie's master and apprentice and Luoshu Villa, and finally gave up the idea of telling the truth. Kong Yunjie's master and apprentice's status, connections and power were higher than those of Luoshu Villa.
Besides, it is impossible for Luoshu Villa to start opposing Master and Disciple Kong Yunjie based on his few words.
If you want to overthrow Master and Disciple Kong Yunjie, you can only start to take action after you have a certain level of strength and real evidence. There is no way to do so now.
"Haha, I just feel that it is too difficult to win the Zichu Sword and there is little hope, so I am feeling sad." Zhao Zheng concealed it with a smile.
"If this is the case, I really can't help." Baili Liancheng was discouraged for a moment, but suddenly became energetic again, "I don't have the ability to help you get the Zichu Sword, but I will put two stakes on you.
Note. I can still do it to cheer you on. How about you, do you want to play with me and place two bets?"
The competition for the Zichu Sword is a grand event, and there are many variables. No one dares to say for sure that a certain contestant will win. Things like this have always been very popular among the bookmakers, and some people have long been interested in it.
This set up a gambling game and took the opportunity to make money.
Zhao Zheng knew that Baili Liancheng was talking about this kind of gambling. He smiled and said: "It's so late, so let's go tomorrow. I also plan to bet some money on myself to add some happiness to myself."
"You don't have to wait until daytime. The gambling games are more lively at night. During the day, I heard others talking about the gambling games privately set up in the villa, and I also inquired about the specific location. Why don't we go there and take a look now?
It just so happens that my hands are itchy too." Baili Liancheng suggested excitedly.
"Okay. It's better to go some other time. Let's go now." Zhao Zheng couldn't help but agree, and drank the wine in one gulp.
The two of them left the house and rushed all the way to the temporary casino in the villa. Baili Liancheng knew the general direction. When they got close, they inquired with the village man they met, learned the specific direction, and successfully found the place.
A temporary casino.
The casino is located in a courtyard. You can hear the shouts in the courtyard from a distance. It seems that there are a lot of people gathered inside and it is very lively.
Zhao Zheng quietly amplified his hearing to listen to the movements in the casino. There were more than thirty people talking inside, which was very noisy. Most of them were discussing who should bet or who could win.
"I heard that this casino was temporarily set up by 'Liu Liu Dashun. Lu Youfa'. His family is very wealthy and has opened casinos in various places. He is very honest. We can bet with confidence. I can't wait now, so I'd better go for a quick two
Let's go." Baili Liancheng pointed forward and quickened his pace, appearing to be in high spirits.
Zhao Zheng also knew about Liuliu Dashun. Lu Youfa was a martial arts master and a gambling master. Even those martial artists who were good at identifying positions by listening to the wind would definitely not get any advantage at this man's gambling table.
Lu Youfa's reputation in other areas is not very good, he is domineering and lustful, but his reputation in gambling is very good, and he never defaults on gambling money. It is very safe to bet on the gambling table set up by this person.
The doors and doors of the casino are all open, welcoming gamblers to place bets.
Zhao and Zheng stepped into the courtyard, crossed the courtyard, and entered the house.
The room was large enough to accommodate more than fifty people. It was brightly lit with many bright lamps, illuminating the faces of many gamblers. There were several tables in the room, and the gamblers gathered around the tables.
, some tables are crowded with people, and some tables are deserted.
"Zheng Wuji hasn't come yet, and there's a good chance he won't come. I bet on him to lose...Kong Yunjie's strength has reached the sixth level, and he is sure to win. I bet on him to win. It's a pity that his odds are too low, even if
There is no benefit if you win the bet... This Zhao Zheng has no reputation and does not know how to promote himself. This kind of person will definitely lose. I bet on him to lose. I bet more, just five thousand taels." A young gambler broke.
Thinking quietly, placing bets among the crowd.
Vaguely, Zhao Zheng heard someone mentioning himself. He looked over with electric eyes and saw the man's back. He found that the man was wearing brocade clothes and his back looked very familiar. After thinking for a while, he recognized that this man was the one mentioned before.
The "little rich man with millions of dollars" who talks to him every day.
On that day, Qian Wanjin wanted to make a deal with him, letting him keep a hand in the ring. If the two met, he would give the victory to Qian Wanjin, and Qian Wanjin would pay a high reward.
Zhao Zheng hated Qian Wanjin's behavior. The victim named Dou Dun was killed by Qian Wanjin. Of course, he could not agree to Qian Wanjin's unreasonable request. It must be because he refused the matter.
, so when Qian Wanjin made the bet just now, he said that he "doesn't know how to promote".
If you want to know what's going on inside, you need to listen to what's behind the scenes, and it's true.
If you didn't hear these words, then that's it, but if you heard it with your own ears, you can't just ignore it casually. Zhao Zheng is also a passionate and bloody person.
"I'll give you 30,000 taels of silver to bet on Zhao Zheng winning the next game!" Zhao Zheng impulsively shouted.
This amount is already quite large. It is only enough to buy a large house, marry several beautiful wives, and buy a few boundless pieces of land.
This voice resounded through the room like a gong, causing everyone to stop in shock and turn around to look at Zhao Zheng.
Qian Wanjin was so frightened that he shrank his neck. When he saw Zhao Zheng behind him, he showed a guilty smile and rolled his eyes twice. He always had two bodyguards beside him, and these two people watched his words.
Seeing that something was not going well, he immediately came closer and stood in front of the young master.
However, the behavior of these two bodyguards was completely unnecessary. Zhao Zheng had no intention of using force to teach Qian Wanjin a lesson. This is Sword Making Villa, and even if he is angry, he must suppress his anger and not take action. He wants to vent his anger, but there is another reason.
There were other ways. He passed directly by Qian Wanjin, walked to the gambling table, and looked across the table.
The person standing opposite was none other than Liuliu Dashun. Lu Youfa, this man was lean and slender, with two oily beards swinging from his lips, and a pair of small bean eyes. He looked like a mouse turned into a spirit.
"Boss Lu, what is the gameplay of this gambling table? I want to bet on myself." Zhao Zheng said calmly.
Who is Lu Youfa? Before setting up the bet, he had already found out all the challengers and recognized Zhao Zheng's identity at a glance. He chuckled and said: "Young people are so refreshing. When they hear that others are not optimistic about it,
You immediately became angry. The betting methods on each of these tables in the room are different. The betting method on my table is very simple. The betting is on the winning or losing of the first martial arts competition among you wrestlers. According to each table, the betting method is different.
Depending on the strength of a fighter, the odds set are also different, some are high and some are low. Usually, the higher the strength and the greater the chance of winning, the lower the odds. Vice versa.
Since the opponents and order of you contestants have not been finalized yet, this kind of bet is full of uncertainty and very exciting."
"It's quite simple. As I said just now, bet 30,000 taels of silver on myself to win the first game!" Zhao Zheng reached into his arms and took out a stack of silver notes, turned them over several times, and took out three
Each of them had a denomination of 10,000 taels of silver notes, and he slapped them into the square with his name written on them.
The palm of your hand hits the table, and there is a sound when it falls!
"Haha, I open my door for gambling, and I always welcome anyone who comes. Since you want to bet on yourself, I will accept the money and issue you a receipt with my handprint right away. You
The odds are very high, three to one. If you win the first game, you can come to me with the bill afterwards, and I will hand over the ninety thousand taels of silver to you. I run a black-hearted casino, so you can throw it away
Regardless of this relationship, we are all friends in the world, and I wish you success and come out on top." Lu Youfa clasped his fists at Zhao Zheng, wrote a note on the spot, and pressed the button on it.
Red handprinted it and handed it to Zhao Zheng.
Zhao Zheng glanced at the bill, put it away close to his body, and responded with clasped fists: "With Boss Lu's good words, I also wish you a prosperous business and abundant financial resources."
Seeing this scene, Baili Liancheng could still stand by and watch, so he also came forward, took out a folding fan from his waist, tapped the square with Zhao Zheng written on it with the head of the fan, and said proudly: "You can also pledge 30,000 yuan for me.
I have two taels of silver with my friend. I don’t have that much money in my pocket. Please put it on Luoshu Villa’s account for me first.”
How could Lu Youfa not know a rich man like Baili Liancheng? He immediately smiled and agreed: "Easy to say, easy to say. With the reputation of Luoshu Villa, not to mention thirty thousand taels of debt, even three hundred thousand taels of debt is no problem."
"I will bet 30,000 taels first. After my friend's triumphant victory, I will bet on the second game until he takes Zi Chujian home." Baili Liancheng said boldly.
"Okay, you are welcome to join me at this casino at any time." Lu You smiled, took out another receipt, scribbled it on, and presented it to Baili Liancheng with both hands.
Zhao Zheng turned around and looked at Qian Wanjin, who was not far away, with provocation in his eyes.
Qian Wanjin showed an embarrassed smile and said to cover up: "Young Master Zhao is so generous and generous, which really makes people admire him. I made many mistakes just now, I hope you can forgive me."
"If you say it out loud, you can't get it back. Qian Wanjin, since you want to bet on me to lose, and I want to bet on myself to win, how about we have another bet in private?" Zhao Zheng was angry.
road.
"What kind of bet do you want?" Qian Wanjin gradually stopped smiling when he saw that the gap had been formed and there was no room for maneuver.
"It's very simple. We have made a private agreement of ten thousand taels of silver. If I win the first game, you will give me ten thousand taels. If I lose, I will give you ten thousand taels." Zhao Zheng replied.
"Huh, how much did I think it was, but it turned out to be only ten thousand taels. This bet is not bad, but the winnings are a little short, so it's not interesting." Qian Wanjin said disdainfully.
Zhao Zheng always regarded money as dirt and didn't take it seriously at all. When he heard Qian Wanjin use this to provoke him, he raised his eyebrows and said impulsively: "Since you think it's too little, then we will increase the bet ten times and give him one hundred thousand."
The price is two taels of silver, so the price must be interesting!" (To be continued. Please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!
