Although Mengcheng is a small town, the nightlife here is no less than that of a big city.
The lanterns are on, and the night is sultry.
Under the breeze, the river water surges.
The entire ancient city exudes its unique charm under various gorgeous lights.
But even under such beautiful scenery, there are still various evils hidden.
For example, casino.
When we arrived at Sun Yao's casino, it was already past nine o'clock in the evening.
This is an underground parking lot that was renovated into a venue.
As soon as I entered the door, I couldn't help but frown.
This is almost the most chaotic scene I have ever seen.
All mahjong tables are chaotically intertwined with other gambling tables.
Some gamblers have to walk through crowded mahjong tables if they want to go to the gaming table to place their bets.
As soon as we entered the door, Sun Yao came over with a smile.
As soon as he arrived, he immediately said to us:
"Bosses, come in and take a look. Although our place is a bit chaotic, to be honest, this place is the biggest place in Jiancheng..."
With that said, he took us to the innermost position.
Here is a table where Niu Niu is playing.
Relatively speaking, it is not as chaotic as the peripheral gambling tables.
To my surprise, the old prodigal was also there.
It's just that he didn't play, but stood aside and watched the excitement.
Seeing Mr. Hong and I coming over, he nodded towards us as a greeting.
Mr. Hong looked at the old prodigal with a smile and said directly:
"Boss Yao, why didn't you play?"
In fact, I am also surprised. It is said that the two biggest regrets of players are accompanying prostitutes and watching gambling.
The old prodigal is also a very addicted to gambling, so he is here to watch the excitement instead of playing.
Before the old prodigal could speak, Sun Yao immediately said:
"The main reason is that our Master Yao thinks we are playing too small, and he can't get up his energy day by day! Bosses, how about I set up a game for you. Let's play something big?"
It doesn't matter to Sun Yao how big we play.
Anyway, he mainly relies on pumping water.
"We're fine, look at Boss Yao!"
The old prodigal pushed up his glasses, nodded and replied:
"Then let's play for a while!"
"Then go to my office, it's clean there!"
Sun Yao said with a smile.
The office Sun Yao mentioned is actually just a simple cubicle.
It's also a mess inside, but it's relatively cleaner.
"Bosses, what are you going to play?"
Sun Yao asked.
"Don't be awesome, I'm not very good at it. Let's play golden flowers, short cards!"
The old prodigal sat at the table and said.
As for the short deck he was talking about, the rules are almost the same as those of normal poker.
Just remove 2,3,4,5 and play 36 cards.
The only difference is that normally a, 2, and 3 count as a straight.
In short cards, a, 6, and 7 are counted as straights.
This way of playing has a higher probability of big names appearing, making it more exciting to play.
Generally, it is some experienced gamblers who have a great gambling habit who choose this method of playing.
When I heard it, I felt happy.
This is equivalent to virtually doubling the stakes in the game.
Sun Yao called two more people, Mr. Hong and I, plus five other people from the old prodigal family, to prepare for the start.
The old prodigal opened a deck of cards and shuffled the cards casually while saying:
"Let's not play too big. Just have a base bet of 1,000 and a cap of 100,000. How about that?"
The other two people didn't have any objections.
But I feel a little small in my heart.
Because what I have to do today is to find a way to get the old prodigal to take over.
Only in this way can we capture him as quickly as possible.
This solved the matter between him and Gao Wenliang, the pawnbroker.
But I couldn't help but agree. After much deliberation, I decided to see if there was a chance to stimulate him to play with me on the stage.
When the poker game started, I was in no hurry to win as usual.
Instead, let’s take a look at the three of them first to see if there’s anything fishy about them.
Mr. Hong, like me, plays cards normally.
The card game went on like this, neither salty nor bland.
After playing for a while, I found that the three of them were quite clean, and no one did anything with the cards.
I was just about to give Mr. Hong a signal to tell him that he could take action.
Suddenly, the wooden door of the office that was about to fall apart creaked.
When I looked back, I saw a woman in her thirties walking in from outside.
This woman has long hair and a pretty figure.
It's just that her makeup is very heavy, not heavy makeup, but a bit like smoky makeup.
All in all, looking at it, it gives people an uncomfortable feeling.
As soon as she entered the door, she greeted the three of them.
Then, he picked up a chair, sat down next to the old prodigal with a smile, and said sweetly:
"Boss Yao, the more you win, the more rewards I can get!"
The old prodigal stretched out his hand and hugged the woman.
The two were laughing and flirting.
The card game continued, and the woman helped the old prodigal check the cards and place bets from time to time.
But apart from these, there was no other action.
Could it be that this woman is just the old prodigal’s mistress in the shed?
At this time, the poker game had been going on for more than an hour.
I lost more than 30,000 yuan, and Mr. Hong also lost more than 40,000 yuan.
This time I was the banker, and while shuffling the cards, I gave Mr. Hong a secret signal.
Tell him, get ready to play cards, I'm going to give him a big deck of cards.
Holding the poker in hand, I washed it.
At the same time, he looked at the woman who just came in, intentionally or unintentionally.
This woman was still leaning on the old prodigal, and she didn't even look at my shuffle.
Once the cards were dealt, I chose to bet one thousand.
The old prodigal called, and Mr. Hong directly raised the bet to three thousand.
The other two looked at the cards and chose to fold.
When it was my turn again, I picked up the cards and looked at them.
Then, he folded the cards, threw them aside, and said:
"You two go ahead and play, I won't follow you anymore!"
The old loser held the card and was about to read it.
Suddenly, the woman with smoky makeup held his hand and said delicately:
"No need to look, just follow!"
"Okay, then I'll add some more!"
As he said that, the old prodigal counted out five thousand and threw it on the card table.
"Five thousand boring!"
It's Mr. Hong's turn again.
At this time, Mr. Hong pretended to be conflicted about wanting to see it but not wanting to see it.
But the old prodigal suddenly said:
"Little brother, you can get tens of thousands in a dance hall. Why don't you keep this little money?"
"It's a way to stimulate generals, right? Okay, then I'll add another five thousand or ten thousand to you!"
As he spoke, Mr. Hong took out a wad of money and slapped it on the table.
