Chapter 19 Shikumen

The dice officer rolled the dice again, and Shopkeeper Xiong asked with a smile, "Young Master Xu, continue to buy leopards?"

Jiang Daqiao looked up at the shopkeeper Xiong, and counted the remaining bank notes and silver, and there were more than 100 taels of silver.

He looked up at the dice cup, wiped the sweat from his brow, puffed out his cheeks and let out a long breath, as if he was making a difficult decision...

"One hammer deal, all bet on the leopard!"

More than 1000 taels of silver all-in on "Leopard"?
The audience suddenly fell silent again...

Shopkeeper Xiong sat up straight when he heard this, and secretly calculated the account in his heart...

This Mr. Xu is really ruthless. If you bet more than 1000 taels of silver on "Leopard", if you win the bet, if you pay twenty times, wouldn't I have to pay more than 2 taels of silver?
But after thinking about it, when the person who runs the casino is afraid that the customers will bet, the bigger the customer bets, the more the casino will earn, so he smiled:

"Master Xu is indeed a cheerful person!"

The ore elder at the side couldn't sit still, staring at Jiang Daqiao: "Young master, don't you want to save some money?"

Jiang Daqiao looked at the ore elder and smiled: "Didn't you always tell me that a coward can't be a general? The bigger the bet, the more you win! Trust me... I have a hunch that this one will definitely come out." leopard!"

The ore elder looked confused, when did I tell you this, besides, can I still trust you?You have lost more than 20 games in a row.

At this time, Shopkeeper Xiong asked in a very gracious manner: "Don't worry, you two should think about it before placing a bet?"

Jiang Daqiao smiled and said, "Don't think about it, just go all-in on Leopard!"

As he said that, he had already pushed all the silver and bank notes to the position of "Leopard".

Shopkeeper Xiong immediately shouted: "Buy and leave!"

It was too late for the ore elders to stop them.

"Open the cup!"

Everyone present was staring at the dice cup, and a needle could be heard in the casino.

Three Wu!
leopard!

The air in the casino suddenly felt like a frying pan...

"Ah, there's a leopard!"

"More than 1000 taels of silver bet on the leopard, twenty times!"

Shopkeeper Xiong was stunned for a while, and finally came back to his senses, wiped his sweat with his sleeve, and smiled reluctantly:

"What's the matter, what's the matter, isn't it only more than 2 taels of silver? Money is a bastard, you can earn it if you can spend it, come here! Bring me the silver box!"

Immediately a steward went upstairs and came out with a silver box.

Bet 180 taels, and pay 600 taels at [-] times... Looking at the pile of bank notes and silver in front of me, it is more than enough to settle the bill at the Nanjie Commercial Bank.

Jiang Daqiao beamed, and said to Shopkeeper Xiong, "I'm going home today, Shopkeeper Xiong, we'll meet later!"

"Young Master Xu, you won't play anymore?"

Jiang Daqiao: "Stop playing, my mother is still waiting for me to go home for dinner!"

Shopkeeper Xiong couldn't laugh or cry when he heard that, how can this person be so good at making up things, but at this moment, nothing can make this kid leave the treasure bureau, "Mr.

Jiang Daqiao shook his head: "That's not okay, my mother told me not to let me go home late, and besides, I'm afraid of the dark!"

Shopkeeper Xiong was almost speechless: "Well... the big man is afraid of darkness, I will arrange a carriage to take the two of you home later."

"No, my house is far away from here?"

"May I ask where Mr. Xu lives?"

"You don't know either."

"I, Xiong, have heard of places big and small near the county town, even if I haven't been there. How could I not know about them? Tell me about them?"

Jiang Daqiao thought for a while and said, "Shikumen, have you heard of it?"

Shopkeeper Xiong was a little confused when he heard that: "Shikumen? Is it nearby? I really haven't been there."

Jiang Daqiao thought to himself that if you have to go through Shikumen, the hell will happen!
The ore elder beside him naturally didn't know where the Shikumen was, but his disciple didn't mention the Iron Sword Gate, so he felt a lot more at ease. After all, today's news will be spread, and everyone in the sect knows Xiaodan Master Feng and his disciples betting on money in the County City Treasure Bureau, that would be very bad.

While talking nonsense with shopkeeper Xiong, Jiang Daqiao sorted out the bank notes in front of him, stood up and prepared to leave.

Shopkeeper Xiong saw it and winked at his subordinates. Several people immediately walked towards Jiang Daqiao. A young man at the head walked up to Jiang Daqiao and said with a fake smile:
"Hey! Do you think you can stop playing if you don't want to? Do you think this is a vegetable market?"

Jiang Daqiao had noticed long ago that the onlookers in the casino had been "invited" out, and the gate of the treasure house had been closed. He knew that this was called "closing the door and slaughtering pigs".

It’s okay to win a little money in the treasure bureau, but if anyone has the ability to win thousands of taels of silver in the treasure bureau, then I’m sorry, the people in the treasure bureau will try to keep him in the treasure bureau and continue to bet until he loses light so far.

Jiang Daqiao had expected it a long time ago, and he smiled at Shopkeeper Xiong: "Treasurer Xiong, this is the way of hospitality of Le Fu Bao Bureau?"

"Back off, everyone back off! How can you talk to the guests like that?" Shopkeeper Xiong scolded his subordinates, then turned his head and smiled at Jiang Daqiao: "It's still early, Mr. Xu, how many more rounds will you play?"

Hehe... One is a bad face, the other is a red face, the casino routine is quite deep.

Jiang Daqiao said: "I don't want to play anymore, I really don't want to play anymore! I'm going home late, my mother might beat me again!"

With that said, Jiang Daqiao stood up.

Five or six thugs surrounded him, all with gleaming swords in their hands.

At this moment, a person shouted in a deep voice: "Who dares to touch my young master?!"

The eyebrows are cold, and the beard and hair are all stretched out. It is the ore elder!
My master stood in front of his disciples and stopped five sword-wielding men with his bare hands. The ore elder at this moment is simply too handsome.

Seeing that the two sides were at war, Shopkeeper Xiong coughed lightly twice, "Play one more time, Mr. Xu, do you see that the dice will be rolled soon?"

The dice official shook the dice and put the dice cup on the gaming table.

Jiang Daqiao heard it clearly, looked at shopkeeper Xiong, and then at the silver box of shopkeeper Xiong, and suddenly had a thought, and it would not be a bad thing to win more silver.

"I suddenly felt that Shopkeeper Xiong made sense," Jiang Daqiao smiled, and continued, "Since Shopkeeper Xiong is so kind, I decided to bet one more round at the end!"

Shopkeeper Xiong thought to himself, this kid finally agreed, and said, "Master Xu, please place your bet!"

Jiang Daqiao thought for a while, and pushed all the banknotes and coins to the "big" position.

Boss Xiong: "Master Xu, why doesn't he buy leopards?"

Jiang Daqiao smiled: "I won't buy a leopard, I'll buy a big one."

"Buy and leave!"

Open the cup,
14 points!
Big!
……

The steward doubled his bet, and the silver bills in front of Jiang Daqiao became more than 9000 taels. Look at the silver bills in the silver box of the treasurer Xiong, and there are very few silver bills left.

"Shopkeeper Xiong, I really don't want to play anymore, I have to go home immediately." Jiang Daqiao took out a cloth bag from his arms while talking, and put the banknotes and money in it.

The shopkeeper Xiong on the opposite side finally came to his senses after a long while. He took the towel handed over by his subordinates and wiped the sweat from his forehead and neck. His face had turned the color of a pig's liver.

What happened? After he came down from upstairs, Mr. Xu won a total of two rounds, and he won more than 4 taels of silver. In the second round, he forced the other party to bet... …

Based on his more than ten years of experience in running Baoju, this is definitely not something that can be explained by "good luck".

He stared at "Young Master Xu" opposite him...

The other party looked a little nervous, but it didn't look like he was really nervous. The other party spoke and acted a little out of tune, but it seemed that everything was in his calculations.

No matter what happened today, there was no way to explain this matter to the higher-ups. Shopkeeper Xiong collected himself, waved his hand, and a person in charge immediately stepped forward.

Shopkeeper Xiong gave some instructions in a low voice, and the steward immediately nodded and left.

All of this fell into Jiang Daqiao's eyes. He knew that shopkeeper Xiong already lost face!
