my wife is a consul

Chapter 528

Qi Zongxun is known as the head of the four great princes in Winter City, and he is indeed personable and gentle. Although he was obviously irritated, when he saw Lu Ming and his party coming, he managed to suppress his anger, smiled and shook hands with Lu Ming and others.

Jin Shanlong has the typical appearance of Jinzhou people, with single eyelids and small eyes, his face is a bit sinister.

Haixi people and Beijiang people are deadly enemies. The main conflict actually comes from Jinzhou people and the Qi family in Zhongzhou, Beijiang who once enslaved them. In order to get freedom, Jinzhou people resisted for more than 300 years, and finally, collectively migrated. Hercynian.

People from Jinzhou are extremely hostile when they see Qi, whether they are from Beijiang or not.

Not to mention that Qi Zongxun is the real master, today's conflict between the two came from Jin Shanlong's naked provocation.

Lu Ming saw Saburo Tojo's meaning, he wanted to calm things down, and said that everyone would play together, and the several games proposed were all games with little win or loss and the possibility of becoming partners to cooperate with each other.

"Jinhua! Just Zhajinhua! The two of us are already doing Jinhua!" Jin Shanlong rolled his eyelids, his face full of rebellion.

He was lucky enough to beat Qi Zongxun a few times.

Zhajinhua is one of the most exciting gambling games, and it can easily become a duel between two people.

Saburo Tojo frowned slightly, but said nothing.

Qi Zongxun said lightly: "That's right, Young Master Jin and I haven't decided yet."

Ren Jichang smiled at this moment: "Otherwise, let's play the first prize, which is similar to Zhajinhua."

Lu Ming knows that winning the championship is a popular card gambling game in the Northern Territory, which is similar to filling holes in his previous life.

The general rule is to remove small cards. For example, if there are four people, keep 10 to A, that is, 20 cards, and each person will be dealt 5 cards.

The first two are hidden cards that only the player can see, and the last three are cards that are invented in turn.

From the first face-up card dealt, players start betting, raising, kicking, etc.

Winning or losing depends on the total points of five cards, 10 is 10 points, J is 11 points, and so on, but A is 15 points.

Of course, in this world, J to A are called differently, but the principles are similar, and Lu Ming automatically translates their names into his own understanding.

In addition, when calculating the total points of a card, if there are three identical cards, an extra 30 points will be added.

If there are four of the same, you win directly.

However, if two players have four identical cards, the total points of the two players will be compared.

The highest total points are not one player, but two players or more players are tied, it is called a bad game, there is no winner, and the table bets will automatically enter the next round.

This kind of play is not like Zhajinhua's many tricks. How many people have a bottom on the opponent's cards, after all, they can see 3 bright cards.

Winning or losing is not as exciting as Zhajinhua.

In addition, the possibility of cheating is also very small, because for example, there are four players, only 20 cards, and each of them has five cards. When the card is shown, it is worn out.

Although the chances are not very high when all four players follow up to 5 cards, the flexibility of changing cards is minimized after all.

Hearing Ren Jichang's suggestion over there, Tojo Saburo smiled and said: "Okay, let's play the championship."

Qi Zongxun has nothing to do, "See what Young Master Jin means!"

Jin Shanlong's face was full of displeasure at first, but for some reason, his expression suddenly changed, he gritted his teeth, "Okay!"

Ren Jichang laughed loudly: "Okay, okay, come on, let's go to the table!"

Five people play, is to take 9 to A, plus an 8, a total of 25 cards.

Not long after Lu Ming sat down, Grandma Tuolong came with a food box, but brought some snacks for the master, and then went to stand in a row of servants against the wall.

Originally, Lu Ming didn't bring Tuolong or Xiaoguo with him when he came here. When he heard that he was going to play at the poker table, he took the opportunity of going to the bathroom and called Tuolong through the secret method of returning to Montenegro.

But I didn't want to, when the game started, it was full of gunpowder, making it even more exciting than Zha Jinhua.

From the first round, Qi Zongxun and Jin Shanyong took turns raising and kicking and countering.

Originally, the basic bet was 100, but often after the third round of cards was dealt, the bets on the table were tens of thousands.

Lu Ming followed casually. Sometimes when the hole card was a pair, the opponent didn't have any cards in his pair in the first round, so he often folded and refused to call.

However, with Qi Zongxun and Jin Shanlong's nonsense like this, they soon won and lost 10,000+. Qi Zongxun was calmer, and Jin Shanlong was impatient, and Jin Shanlong lost.

Lu Ming was playing carelessly, and this time his hole card came with two nines.

The order in which the third card was dealt was Jin Shanlong, Saburo Tojo, Qi Zongxun, Ren Jichang, and Lu Ming.

Jin Shanlong's third card was K, he snorted coldly, and threw down a [-]-yuan chip, "[-]".

Saburo Tojo followed.

Qi Zongxun is Q, he also hesitated without hesitation, so he followed Ten Thousand.

Ren Jichang fell into deep thought.

At this time, a waiter came to Lu Ming holding a small box, and said in a low voice, "Sir, someone will change the chips for you."

The waiter opened the small box, and there were [-] yuan worth of chips inside, about two hundred, with a card on it.

Lu Ming picked it up and read it, but it was an ancient Dongying poem quoted by Saburo Tojo, which probably meant that a confidant is hard to find, and a sentence was attached at the end, saying that it was because Commissioner Zhang played without passion, and he gave away chips to be in the same robe with you .

Over there, after thinking deeply, Ren Jichang followed Ten Thousand.

The croupier then gave Lu Ming a third card, which was another 9.
Lu Ming was startled, and turned his head to look at Saburo Tojo, only to see Saburo Tojo smiling at him.

There is no doubt that Saburo Tojo controlled the game, giving himself chips and the order of the cards so that he could win a fortune.

Lu Ming waved his hand and said to the waiter: "I don't need this chip, go and return it to Mr. Tojo!" He picked up a [-] yuan chip on the table and threw it in.

The waiter took the small box and went to Saburo Tojo, and Saburo Tojo calmly asked the waiter to put the chips on his table.

The croupier was about to hand out the fourth round, Jin Shanlong gritted his teeth and raised his hand: "I kick back [-]!"

After each round of dealing, each player has a chance to kick back.

Tojo Saburo smiled: "Followed!"

Qi Zongxun frowned, thought for a while, counted ten thousand yuan chips and threw them into the table.

Ren Jichang smiled and pushed the card: "I won't follow!"

Lu Ming threw down the chips, "One hundred thousand."

At the beginning of the fourth round of card dealing, Jin Shanlong had another K, that is to say, both cards were K, and he smiled, "Okay, I'm so lucky! It's better than the boy in Beijiang! I raised the bet To 50!" Qi Zongxun made a gesture of cutting his throat provocatively.

Saburo Tojo smiled: "Don't follow!"

Qi Zongxun's fourth card is Q again, that is to say, there are two Qs on the clear card. He glanced at Jin Shanlong and nodded: "Follow!"

The croupier brought over Lu Ming's fourth card with a card holder, flipped it over again, and it was another 9.
In other words, Lu Ming now has four 9s.

Lu Ming looked at the two bright cards, then took a look at the two hidden cards, and said with a smile, "Before I decide whether to follow, Marshal Zongxun, I have a question for you, Miao Baifeng from Anshan The regime, or An Mingyuan's regime, which one does the young marshal think is Anshan's orthodox?"

Hearing Lu Ming's question, Ren Jichang smiled slightly, and looked at Qi Zongxun with great interest.

Saburo Tojo was still smiling, but the way he looked at Lu Ming had changed slightly.

Over there, Qi Zongxun hesitated.

In fact, before coming, Qi Huaide must have confessed to his son that he remained neutral on this matter and did not express his position.

But Qi Zongxun glanced at Jin Shanlong, then smiled and said: "From my personal point of view, of course, Chairman Miao Baifeng who is still maintaining Ansan's dignity in Ansan City is the orthodox Ansan, and An Mingyuan who has fled to the northwest tribe , how can it represent Anshan people?"

Lu Ming laughed happily, "Okay, Young Marshal Zong Xun, based on your words, whatever you lose in today's poker game will be mine!"

Qi Zongxun frowned slightly, feeling that he was being underestimated. When he wanted to say something, Lu Ming smiled and said: "I'm following!" Then he said: "Kick back 100 million!"

Jin Shanlong snorted coldly, as if he had glanced at Saburo Tojo, then picked up his hole card and looked at it, and said with a sneer, "I'm following!"

Lu Ming nodded heartily, this is a game, either it is a game of giving money to himself, or it is a game of killing himself.

It seems that now, it has become a situation where you have to kill yourself.

Qi Zongxun probably realized something and hesitated.

Jin Shanlong sneered and said, "Why? Don't you dare? People in Northern Xinjiang are all cowards, and so are those girls. Even if they cry to death, they don't dare to resist!"

A cold light flashed in Qi Zongxun's eyes, but he threw the cards away, "I won't follow this round!"

The croupier began to deal the cards in the fifth round, and Jin Shanlong's fifth card was an ace.

He picked up the two hole cards again, looked at them, and coughed: "200 million."

The croupier dealt cards to Lu Ming. Lu Ming's fifth card was 8.

Lu Ming looked at the chips on the table and said with a smile, "Do you accept checks here?"

In this room, there was a casino manager who was waiting on him. At this time, he hurriedly smiled and said, "Of course we accept Commissioner Zhang's check."

Lu Ming then wrote a 500 million check and delivered it to the table, "Follow me, until I reach 500, we won't see each other!"

Jin Shanlong's eyelids twitched. Obviously, although he is a famous nobleman in Haixi Province, this level of gambling is completely out of his control. By the time he shouted 200 million in the last round, he was already very honest. Now, those arrogant expressions on his face are gone, and there are slight beads of sweat on his forehead.

At this time, he picked up his hole card and looked at it again.

Saburo Tojo, who was sitting next to him, had a look of displeasure in his eyes, and Mrs. Tojo gently put down the teacup.

"Follow!" Jin Shanlong finally figured it out after roughly confirming the hole cards.

If he has four kings and the fifth card is an ace, then no matter what the opponent's card is, he has won.

Because to win him, only the same four can compare points with him.

Four Aces is impossible, the maximum is four Qs plus an A, which is smaller than his points.

And Lu Ming's card has two 9s and one 8, even if there are four 9s, the points are much smaller than him.

After Jin Shanlong yelled to follow, but looking at his own chips on the table, there were very few chips.

Tojo Shiro, sitting next to him, smiled slightly at this time, and took out the check book, "It seems that Commissioner Zhang didn't enjoy himself to the fullest, but Master Jin seems to have no capital, so let me lend money to Master Jin, Master Jin Haixi Yingjie, I There are also some properties in Haixi, so I'm not afraid that Young Master Jin will renege on his debts."

He smiled again and said, "Commissioner Zhang is going to show his cards to Young Master Jin." As he said that, he wrote a check for 500 million and sent it to Jin Shanlong, and smiled at Lu Ming: "Commissioner Zhang, the game is over. We can still talk about it.”

Jin Shanlong delivered the check to the table, and the manager picked it up to review it, with a look of embarrassment on his face, "Sanhe Bank...has no business in Longbei..."

Tojo Shiro frowned, and saw that Lu Ming's face had a hint of color over there, obviously the other party did it on purpose.

No wonder he keeps following. He knows that he can win the game, and he can lose it. He is a smart person, and he doesn't know what the secret communication between him and him from the beginning of the game to the present means. He doesn't accept it. The bargaining chip used the dialogue with Qi Zongxun to express its attitude.

Now, it's just an outside move, just trying to make Jin Shanlong have no capital to follow suit.

But it's all fluff.Saburo Tojo shook his head, and took out another check book, "The check from the Imperial Bank, it must be fine!" He wrote the amount of 1000 million and handed it over.

Jin Shanlong's heart was beating wildly, but he had ordered earlier that if it was the final stage of following the cards, he would follow as many denominations of chips as he got.

He slapped the check, "I'll follow, kick it to 1000 million, and we won't meet!" While speaking, I felt my heart jump out of my throat.

Tojo Saburo looked at Lu Ming coldly, and finally lost any kindness. Obviously, since you don't know how to compliment, you are not welcome, and said flatly: "Mr. Zhang, the game is over, we can still talk."

Lu Ming looked at Jin Shanlong and shook his head helplessly, "I should have kicked tens of millions more, but if you tell an opponent like you in the future, how much money I won from you, why do you feel like bullying a fool? No light! Forget it, I'll meet you!"

After writing a check worth tens of millions and throwing it out, he lifted his hole card, "Four nines and one eight!"

"Fart your mother, you are a fool! I won!" Jin Shanlong took out his hole card and slapped it on the table.

"Three kings, one ace, and one jack, Mr. Zhang wins!" The croupier reported the result crisply.

Jin Shanlong looked down, his face changed drastically. His initial hole cards were a K and a J, but after Mr. Tojo gave the signal halfway, he looked at the hole cards again and it was two K.

At this time, Mrs. Tojo suddenly snorted fiercely, and lay down on the table with a pale face. Obviously she did not know what illness she had, and passed out.

Saburo Tojo stared blankly at Jin Shanlong's hole cards, and forgot to care about his wife for a while.

Lu Ming had already said to the manager: "Exchange all the chips into checks drawn by your hotel!" He picked up another three million chips, and threw one to the manager, one to the croupier, and the other to the couple. A waiter: "You share one point!"

The eyes of the manager, the croupier and the waiters were all straight. The game was so scary that they had never seen it since they worked in the casino.

The tip given by the winner is more money than ordinary people can save in their lifetime.

Thank you everyone, come and bow to Lu Ming.

Lu Ming had already picked up the stupid Bai Naixian, and shouted to the manager: "Oh, Young Marshal Qi lost, just give me back the original amount."

He smiled at Ren Jichang again: "Fourth brother, let's go down and have a cup of tea, I'll wait for the check."

Ren Jichang smiled and said, "Okay, okay!" He walked ahead and led the way.

Looking at his back, Lu Ming was thinking about it. In fact, from Saburo Tojo's deployment, it was obvious that he knew in advance that he was going to win the championship, and he was well prepared for all possible possibilities.

That is, Jin Shanlong and Qi Zongxun met in the casino today, Jin Shanlong's provocation, etc., were all arranged in advance.

As for Jin Shanlong, Saburo Tojo can do whatever he wants, but Qi Zongxun came to the casino today, so someone must have deliberately arranged it.

While playing cards, Qi Zongxun accidentally mentioned that he came to the casino today because the guide who was in charge of serving the mansion where he lived said that the casino was fun, so he became interested in it.

And just now, it was Ren Jichang who suggested playing to win the championship.

The fourth son Ren colluded with the Dongying people?

Otherwise, it would be difficult for Tojo Saburo to plan so seamlessly.

However, although the plan is flawless, if the most basic things are overturned, it will be self-defeating.

Tojo Saburo's side naturally knew that there were thousands of masters on his side, after all, the Dongying people were in his hands last time.

Saburo Tojo's wife may be a disguised wife, or a real wife, but she is a master of the game, so maybe she doesn't come here without the intention of competing with the people around her.

What's more, Mrs. Tojo's seat is next to Jin Shanyong, and the K that was exchanged for Jin Shanyong should have been Tojo Saburo's hole card.

With such a short distance, from the perspective of Qianmenshu, the opponent would not have any chance to intervene.

But there is no way, with me here, the gambler, Grandma Tuolong, is even more divinely assisted, as if she has a halo and domain.

Grandma Tuolong never cheated when she gambled by herself, which also lost the fun of gambling, but she has studied all kinds of skills.

I don't know how the two of them fought each other, and I won't ask too many questions.

It's good to win, more than 1000 million, a little less than expected, it is really Jin Shanlong sitting on the opponent's table, which makes me have no interest in continuing to gamble.

Thinking about it, Lu Ming couldn't help laughing. If it continues at this speed, the Haixi people and the Dongying people will be fine, but the rich and powerful who often deal with him will go bankrupt first, right?
