A knife in love

Chapter 1287

Shopkeeper Hu saw through the points of the four decks of Pai Gow, and thought to himself, this hand of Yan Siwu's hand is the biggest, but judging from the situation of everyone playing cards before, Yan Siwu is very careful in his work, and each time he bets at most no more than It will exceed two denarii.The two servants under him kept betting with Yan Siwu, although they didn't win big, after a few rounds, each of them won seven or eight coins.If he makes a move and bets with Yan Siwu, this one will definitely kill the dealer.And the banker won the money from Shou Nanshan and shopkeeper Luo, and it can be regarded as winning the money from Shou Nanshan.

While shopkeeper Hu was thinking, everyone had already placed their bets on various wind gates.Shou Nanshan grabbed a handful of broken silver and put it on the table, and said in his mouth: "Bet on it, let's see if you can still eat it all?!"

Shopkeeper Hu was overjoyed when he saw that Shou Nanshan's fistful of broken silver was worth eight or nine coins. He thought to himself, you old guy is muddle-headed, you don't know the level of depth, and you must lose to death.The rest of the gamblers were also taken aback when they saw Shou Nanshan's generosity.The medicine merchant who was sitting in the manor was also shocked, but he thought to himself, the old man surnamed Shou lost more than a dozen games in a row, and this time it seemed that he was desperate to make money this time.He is plagued by bad luck today, and his spirit is possessed, so I might as well give it a go and bet with him on who will have the best luck.

Thinking of this, the dealer said with a smirk: "Mr. Shou is really straightforward, we will take your bet!"

Seeing that Shou Nanshan took out so much money to bet, all the people watching the gambling game were terrified, and then felt eager and heart-beating, and dozens of eyes all fell on the table.

In the gambling house, most gamblers are irrational and easily incited by others, which is why the saying of "losing red eyes" comes into being.The gamblers had played three or four rounds of Pai Gow before, and they were very rational in their minds, but now they only have two or three points left.Seeing that Shou Nanshan took out eight or nine coins all at once, the people sitting beside the blocking table felt their hearts pounding and their throats dry. superior.Even the several Dongsheng inn staff who had been watching but did not participate in the gambling before, ignored the sharp gaze of shopkeeper Feng, took out a few coins and squeezed to the table, and bet on their favorite dampers.

In the chaos, shopkeeper Hu was quite calm.At this time, the four decks of Pai Gow were already on the table, so he didn't have to spend any more time guessing the points of the Pai Gow.What he cared most about was the movement of Shopkeeper Ji, and he was thinking of taking advantage of Shopkeeper Ji's unpreparedness to swiftly push the one tael of silver that he had already held in his hand to the left damper in front of Yan Siwu.It's just that the treasurer Ji is watching from the side, not moving at all, it seems that he is waiting for himself to place a bet, so that he can put the money there.Shopkeeper Hu scolded Shopkeeper Ji's eighteen generations of ancestors in his heart, but there was nothing he could do about him.

Seeing that the scattered silver on the table was worth three, two, five or six, the eyes of the medicinal material merchant sitting in the manor seemed to burst into flames.He slapped the table and shouted loudly: "Is there anyone else betting? Is there anyone else betting?!"

At this time, the hall suddenly fell silent, and no one spoke, only the heavy breathing of the people was heard, and it seemed that the heartbeat could be heard faintly.Seeing that no one spoke, the dealer swung his right hand and slammed it down on the table, shouting, "Draw the card!"

It's just that the banker's voice hadn't finished yet, when someone shouted loudly: "I want to place a bet!"

Everyone looked around in astonishment, only to see that it was Shopkeeper Hu and Shopkeeper Ji who were speaking.While the two were talking, they each threw a few pieces of scattered silver onto the table.However, shopkeeper Hu threw the silver at the damper on the left in front of Yan Siwu, while shopkeeper Ji threw two broken pieces of silver in front of shopkeeper Luo, who was at the right of the damper.

It turned out that shopkeeper Ji was calm on the surface, but his heart was full of turmoil.Just now he has been watching people betting money, and seeing shopkeepers Luo, Song and Bai each winning eight or nine taels of silver, he was really jealous and hated.He thought to himself that he was smarter and wiser than Luo, Song and Bai.Now that the three of them have won consecutive bets, if they had changed themselves, they would definitely be able to win more silver taels.It's just that I was determined by shopkeeper Hu, so I never made a move. I really regretted such an opportunity for missing.Seeing the dealer's right hand hit the table, this hand was about to be closed, and he had no chance to bet again.Shopkeeper Hu, on the other hand, looked indifferent, and had no intention of placing a bet at all.Shopkeeper Ji put his heart on hold, and while throwing the two broken pieces of silver that he had already held in his hands in front of Shopkeeper Luo, he shouted loudly, "I want to place a bet!"

It's just that shopkeeper Ji didn't expect shopkeeper Hu to be thinking in the same way. Seeing shopkeeper Ji motionless, he felt anxious.At this time, there were three or four taels of gambling money on the table, and I had seen through the respective points of everyone, as long as I placed a bet on Yan Siwu's left damper, I would guarantee that I won and not lose.Therefore, seeing that the dealer was about to close the plate, shopkeeper Hu invested the broken silver in Yan Siwu.

Just hearing a "bang", the dealer's right hand hit the table.Just a moment before, the money thrown by shopkeepers Hu and Ji had landed in front of Yan Siwu and Luo respectively.According to the rules of Dufang, the two of them have already counted as a successful bet.

Everyone looked intently, and shopkeeper Hu dropped four pieces of silver, probably one or two.Shopkeeper Ji threw out two broken pieces of silver, which also looked like five or six coins.At this time, there were more than fifty taels of broken silver piled on the table, and everyone became more and more excited, even breathing a little hard.

Li Qiufeng watched with cold eyes, saw these people's greedy eyes, and thought to himself, these people are extremely smart people, and they definitely wouldn't become like this for a few taels of silver.They are driven by greed in their hearts, and they forget what they are doing.It can be seen that if people in the world are greedy, they don't care about the amount of money.As long as it is profitable, it will do whatever it takes.

Seeing that everyone had already placed their bets, the dealer turned over his four cards.After everyone saw the dealer's card clearly, they all exclaimed.Shopkeeper Luo's face darkened, the corners of his mouth twitched a few times, he raised his head, and glared at Shopkeeper Ji.Shopkeeper Ji's heart trembled when he saw Shopkeeper Luo's appearance like this.He knew that shopkeeper Luo's cards were definitely not as high as the banker's "Miscellaneous Nine", so he had to vent his anger of losing money on himself, complaining that he lost money because he had invested money in his door.

Shopkeeper Ji was not happy either.Losing a few coins is nothing to him.But if shopkeeper Hu made fun of him and lost money at this time, he would definitely be ridiculed by this person.Thinking of this, Shopkeeper Ji regretted it, and thought to himself, why should he offend Lao Hu?This person is cunning and cunning, and he and Xiao Dong single-handedly arranged the trip to Fusang.It's all because I was deceived by lard, and I insisted on grabbing his chair just now.Now that I have a grudge with this person, I'm afraid the situation will be very bad.

Shopkeeper Hu knew early on that Shopkeeper Luo was going to lose money, and when he saw that Shopkeeper Ji was going to bet on Shopkeeper Luo's door, he was overjoyed and thought to himself that if you were a treacherous ghost, you would have to drink Lao Tzu's footwashing water.Not to mention being killed by the dealer, Lao Luo and others must have felt resentment towards this bastard.Well, it's really good.

When shopkeeper Hu was thinking, he saw Shou Nanshan lift the Pai Gow on the table, and said with a smile: "Damn it, I don't believe that I can eat flies every meal? Come, give me the money!"

Everyone looked intently, but saw that the four cards on Shounan Mountain were arranged into a "Shuangtian", which was the second highest number of points in Pai Gow after "Supreme Treasure".The dealer's face changed drastically, and his body trembled slightly.

It's just that the horror in Shopkeeper Hu's heart is far higher than that of the dealer.Based on the marks on the back of the Pai Gow, he deduced that what Shou Nanshan got was a pair of "Miscellaneous Sevens". Why did he suddenly become a pair of "Shuangtian"? Could it be that he had misread the marks on the back of the Pai Gow? no? "

At this moment, shopkeeper Luo also turned over the four cards angrily, and muttered in his mouth: "If you don't bet early, you won't bet later. We only place bets when we are all done, which ruins our Fengshui game." , causing us to lose so much money!"

Shopkeeper Ji heard that Shopkeeper Luo was blaming him. Although he was dissatisfied, it was true that he had made a mistake first. Looking at Shopkeeper Song and Shopkeeper Bai, there were several gamblers who had invested their money in the wind gate on the left and stared fiercely. I know that I have provoked the anger of the public.At this time, no matter whether it is retort or verbal explanation, it can only add fuel to the fire.So he had to smile awkwardly at Shopkeeper Luo to express his apology.Shopkeeper Luo didn't appreciate it, he gave Shopkeeper Ji a hard look, and then turned his head away, not even wanting to look at him again.
