There are many types of Chinese drinking orders, and all kinds of people can find the one that suits them. Scholars and ministers prefer elegant orders such as written drinking orders and planning orders; while ordinary people mainly use simple orders such as punching, guessing numbers, and drawing lots.
.
There is a kind of drinking method that is loved by everyone regardless of whether it is refined or popular, and that is throwing dice. People love the excitement of "hanging on the throw", and this method of playing is the simplest. It can be played by one person, so there is no way to say that it is not possible.
Although the points on the dice are random, a master can control the points thrown out through practice. However, Wang Xian does not have that ability, and neither does his predecessor Wang Er. But Wang Er, as a gambler himself, has his own tricks.
The best way is to fill the dice with lead.
There is a saying that 'lead-filled dice make it easy to win money'. The lead-filled dice are light on one side and heavy on the other. As long as you practice correctly, you can throw the number you want. However, the lead-filled dice are heavier than ordinary dice, which is very difficult.
Easily discovered by veterans.
Therefore, real crooks do not use lead-filled dice, but use mercury dice. Mercury is lighter than lead and is difficult to detect, but mercury is fluid. You must have superior techniques to do whatever you want. Wang Er is in a county
How could a gangster have such a unique skill?
Therefore, the three dices that Wang Xian took out were filled with lead. However, he was not worried about revealing the secrets at all. Firstly, most of these scholars were "yanggu". Secondly, even if a master discovered that the dices were fake, they dared to tell the truth.
?
Sure enough, the numbers thrown by the talents were not good enough. Wang Xian made a random throw and got more than fifteen points, killing everyone in the field.
The scholars had no choice but to raise their glasses to drink, three cups in a round. After several rounds, the scholars drank more than a dozen glasses of shochu... The special feature of Zhou's shochu is that it uses rock sugar and water chestnuts to soak the shochu.
The color of the wine is as clear as a spring and looks like clear water, so it is also called "mistaken water". However, there is also a saying that this kind of wine has a light taste and does not seem to be strong, but its stamina is so strong that it can make even an old drunkard.
Knocked down, it is called "misidentified water".
After half a kilogram of wine, the scholars knew that they would be drunk to death later, but Wang Xian didn't say it was over, and no one dared to pretend to be drunk and escape... because Fourth Master Wang had already said that if he didn't enjoy himself after drinking, he would have to drink again tomorrow.
One game.
In fact, they had already noticed that there was something wrong with Wang Xian's dice. How else could they win every time? But just as Wang Xian expected, they could only turn a blind eye, knock down their teeth and swallow, pouring cup after cup of dice into their stomachs.
, dare not expose it at all.
In the blink of an eye, another pound of wine was consumed, and the wine was already strong. The scholar's faces were all red, and their stomachs were burning. Some people could no longer hold on and fell drunk on the wine table. But Wang Xian still didn't.
He didn't mean to stop until he drank another half a pound and made the last scholar drunk. Then he put away the dice that had made great achievements and said to the dumbfounded book boy, "I won't help your husband go home yet."
The book boys didn't dare to talk nonsense. They quickly helped their young master and stumbled out of the restaurant.
It was still dark at this moment, and the people of Fuyang, who had been taking care of silkworm babies at home for a day, saw such a strange scene... A book boy supported a drunken scholar walking on the street. From time to time, the scholar was lying on the side of the road vomiting, and the people couldn't help but
Shaking his head secretly, I am in jail and my son is an alcoholic. The image of the county squire has been completely ruined.
.
In the squad room, the non-members have been detained for nine days.
Mr. Li had just had breakfast worth ten taels of silver per meal, and ordered drinks for five taels of silver. He sat on his bed that cost fifty taels of silver per night, with a quilt worth fifty taels of money leaning against his back. He felt a sense of superiority.
However, there is no other way, who can make me rich?
If he didn't paralyze himself, he would definitely go crazy. Because in terms of price, he just sat on the Datong bunk with a black and hard shabby quilt behind him, gnawed a cold steamed bun, and drank a bowl of diluted water.
The porridge was extremely gruel, and I asked for a glass of cold water to quench my thirst in the morning... These cheating things actually cost one hundred taels of silver a day! It was enough to meet the Qin Cao girl in Hangzhou City!
After breakfast, several members sat around Datongpu to brag and kill the time before lunch. After eating pickles, steamed buns and brown rice all day long, the members' mouths were filled with tears. The conversation naturally revolved around the delicacies they had eaten, but as they talked,
As I said that, I started to get lost...
A member said: "The biggest meat bun I have ever eaten. I made one with one hundred kilograms of noodles, eighty kilograms of meat, and twenty kilograms of vegetables, and steamed it in an eight-foot-long steamer. It took eight square tables to make it."
There was room for it. Twenty or so people ate in all directions. They ate all day and all night without eating half of it. As they were eating happily, two people disappeared and could not be found anywhere. Suddenly, they heard someone talking in the meat buns and opened the door.
Look, it turns out those two people are digging inside to eat the stuffing. Do you think this bun is big?"
Anyway, bragging about not paying taxes, Li Yuanwai also said nonsense: "The meat buns I ate in Nanjing are considered big. Dozens of people ate it for three days and three nights, and they ate a stone tablet with the words 'Li Rou Stuffing' written on it."
There are still thirty feet left!"
This bragging was so good that everyone laughed, but one member of staff said in a strange way: "Brother Li is really good at bragging, no wonder he can deceive the brothers into doing this..."
The atmosphere in the class room suddenly changed. Officer Li said with a sullen face: "I haven't brushed my teeth for a few days, and my mouth stinks like this!"
Yu Yuanwai hurriedly advised: "Lao Hou, it's meaningless for you to say that. Now that everyone is in trouble, it is important to help each other in the same boat."
"We are in the same boat. We mistakenly boarded your pirate ship and were ruined. Not only did we lose all our money, we can't even stay in Fuyang County any longer!" Several members of the party actually shared the same hatred and said: "Don't even think about kidnapping us anymore!"
"When did I kidnap you? You were the ones who kept following me for nothing!" Li Yuanwai said angrily: "If we win in love, it belongs to everyone, but if we lose, it belongs to me alone. How can there be such a thing in the world!"
"It's your responsibility alone!" The Hou Yuanwai said sharply: "If you hadn't always wanted to prove that you are no worse than the two brothers and always wanted to overpower the government? How could we have ended up in this situation!"
"You fart!" Li Yuanwai was told the central issue and became angry and said: "Don't you just regret that you didn't follow Wang Xian to buy food but got mixed up with us!"
That Hou Yuanwai was Hou's father, and he regretted that he had fallen to this point. When he was told about the central issue, he couldn't hold it in his face. He blushed and had a thick-necked quarrel with Li Yuanwai. The more the two of them quarreled, the more angry they became.
, I don’t know who started the fight first, but they got into a fight, and all the officers rushed to stop him. But most of them complained about Mr. Li in their hearts. They said it was a fight, but in fact it was a wrong fight.
Seeing Yu Yuanwai being held tightly by everyone, but Yu Yuanwai was the only one holding him tightly around his waist, Hou Yuan was greatly encouraged. He first knocked Yuan Wai down with an elbow, and then used a set of violent and powerful punches.
Just say hello to Mr. Li’s face...
.
"What are you doing, what are you doing!" The commotion in the boardroom was like a pig being slaughtered. Finally, Zaoli was summoned. He opened the door and cursed: "You don't want to go out, do you?"
After hearing the words, the members quickly separated. Member Li, who was beaten with a bruised nose and face, asked regardless of the pain: "Master, can we go out?"
"Well, the elder has written a letter agreeing to let me go." Bantou Li said reluctantly, "I really can't bear to leave Yuanwai."
It is true that you are reluctant to part with the fat sheep. All the members secretly cursed in their hearts, but they said nothing nice, for fear of offending these little devils. If you have not been in the squadron, you will not know the dignity of the subordinates. If you have been in the squadroom, you will never forget it for the rest of your life.
Bantou Li took them to the house to check the room, and met Mr. Dianshi, who was in charge of justice...
Wang Xian was outside all the people he met inside.
Sitting on the sandalwood official hat chair, holding a cup of West Lake Longjing, and looking at the luxurious interior decoration, the staff and outsiders couldn't help but burst into tears, and they all felt like they were back in the world.
"What happened to Yuanwai?" Wang Xian looked at the pig-headed Yuanwai Li and said, "If the jailer mistreats you, just complain to me. Although I am only an agent, I will still punish you severely.
"It wasn't a bad guy who did it, I just accidentally dropped it myself." A few days in the prison can make people more honest, Li Yuanwai carefully answered.
"That's too careless." Wang Xian said with a smile: "The matter of smuggling salt has been basically investigated. It has nothing to do with a few members. You can go home today."
"What about the grain ship?" All the staff, except Li, were very polite.
"I'll give it back to you," Wang Xian said magnanimously: "You have good sons. In order to plead for you yesterday, I drank until I lost consciousness."
The few other members didn't know what was going on, so they could only chat and laugh with each other. Fang carefully asked: "May I ask the fourth master, how should we deal with our food?"
"Eat it. If you can't eat it, sell it." Wang Xian said calmly.
"I can't eat that much." The members said with a bitter smile: "I don't dare to sell it without permission anymore."
"Just don't sell it without permission." Wang Xian snorted coldly: "Depending on your attitude, the county can consider lifting the ban."
"We promise that we will never dare to go against the county again!" Hou Yuanwai shouted loudly: "We promise to actively assist the government and do a good job in Fuyang County!"
"That's right," Wang Xian nodded with a smile, looked at the other members and said, "Do you think so too?"
"Yes, yes." The members and other members nodded in unison.
"That's good, but it's all talk and no practice." Wang Xian smiled lightly and said, "You have to let the great master see your sincerity!"
Everyone looked at each other outside. They knew what Wang Xian wanted, but now they had no choice but to abandon the car to protect the commander. Yu Xiucai gritted his teeth and said: "We don't want the eight thousand acres of land under construction. We only want the deposit to be returned to us."
That's fine, I don't need compensation..." As he spoke, he saw Wang Xian's face getting colder and colder. Knowing that the other party was not satisfied, he had to shrink his head and shut his mouth.
"There is no need to refund the deposit!" Mr. Li understood the truth and said loudly: "Just let us live!"
"Haha." Wang Xian smiled and nodded: "Okay."
As if they had received an amnesty, the non-members quickly took grain ships to various counties as soon as they left the Yamen, and sold 50,000 shi of grain at a price of no more than two liang and one shi.
