Pretending to be jealous in the arms of Dali Temple

Chapter 185 The Amazing Girl
Youshi, Yicuifang.

Wan Yan's hair was tied high behind her head, she was wearing black slim-fit half-dozen trousers, and a dark gold belt was tied around her waist. Su Jizhi looked left and right, his eyes burning.

"Why is it so beautiful?"

The little girl smiled and grabbed Su Jizhi's arm, "My lord, let's go."

The two jumped out of the carriage and told Xiao Shitou to wait at the door. Su Jizhi raised his head and asked Wan Yan in a low voice, "I forgot to ask, did you bring the money?"

Wan Yan looked Su Jizhi up and down, wanting to laugh.

The adult's gray uniform was slim and straight, and he was particularly eye-catching in the crowd. She had already seen the clerk at the gate of Yicuifang watching them get off the carriage from a distance, with a smile on his face.

They must have thought that a big customer was coming.

No one could have imagined that the adults don't have a single silver in their pockets.

"Not much."

Wan Yan lowered her eyes in a low voice, she was reluctant to put money here, hoping that the unwarranted wealth would fall on her head.

"Let's try it later, we have to try it before we know the whole process of betting on stones."

"Why do you need to know? My lord, I feel that it is impossible to bet on the emerald."

Su Jizhi shook his head, "Stone gambling is prevalent in the capital, I always have to find out the truth before I can meet the emperor."

Only then did Wan Yan understand, "Why didn't your lord say earlier, I'll bring more money."

Su Jizhi pointed to his heart secretly, "I don't want to part with it either."

The two looked at each other, Wan Yan put his arm around Su Jizhi, and smiled without saying a word.

"Come, come, two guest officers, please slow down, let me see your invitation clearly."

Su Jizhi took out the invitation card, handed it to the servant with two fingers, and asked in a low voice with a cold face, "How is today? Is there any good stuff?"

"Okay, the guest officer looks unfamiliar, and he must know our market best. Please, I wish you two have fun and good luck!"

The young man yelled and went to greet the others enthusiastically.

Stepping over the threshold, Wan Yan watched the lively scene inside in shock.

The three-story hall is full of people.

A circular stand was surrounded in the center of the hall, half a person's height. The center of the stand was bulging and covered with a black cloth, and more than 30 people gathered around the stand to discuss.

Wan Yan asked Su Jizhi in a low voice, "My lord, is the thing covered there the original stone?"

Su Jizhi nodded, "Probably so, look around, the place surrounded by people is also opening stones."

At this time, shouts resounded through the sky from a square table a hundred steps away from Wanyan, and a man jumped on the table with excitement, blushing and yelling loudly, "I've been hit, I've been hit, drive out!" Yes, it's out."

The exciting shouts quickly attracted the attention of dozens of people, and everyone gathered around, making the scene even more chaotic.

Su Jizhi took Wan Yan's hand, "Come on, let's go to the third floor."

Sitting in the box on the third floor, isolated from a little noise, Wan Yan is condescending, only to realize that there are more than a hundred people passing through Yicuifang at this moment.

Leaning against the railing, the little girl sighed, "My lord, stone gambling is really popular in the capital. I never imagined that there would be so many people here."

Su Jizhi leaned over, and there were shouts and shouts from downstairs.

Some people rejoice and others cry.

"There is still a quarter of an hour, did you see? The highlight of tonight is the stone in the middle of the hall."

Wan Yan looked at the place covered with black cloth again.

The original stone occupies the center of the stand, and it is as tall as a six-year-old child. From the height, the place covered by the black cloth is full of potholes. Wan Yan asked curiously, "My lord, you said that if you can get emeralds, such a big stone, Isn't it worth 10 taels?"

Su Jizhi frowned and stared at the original stone for a long time, not knowing why.

A gong sounded, the crowd fell silent, and the two looked at the stands at the same time.

Wan Yan saw a middle-aged man in his 40s, with a strong figure and a slightly bulging stomach, slowly walking out of the inner hall of Yicuifang.

Behind him, followed by a young woman in red with heavy makeup and light makeup.

Everyone held their breath and focused their eyes on the woman.
Wan Yan is also attracted to the woman in red.

In order to see her face clearly, Wan Yan leaned half of her body out of the railing, so frightened that Su Ji stood behind her and pulled her hard.

When the gong sounded, the staff announced loudly, "Welcome all old and new friends to visit Yicuifang. Now I announce that tonight's feast begins now."

The crowd was boiling, and the man smiled and waved his hand, motioning for everyone to be quiet.

"I saw just now that everyone has already tried their hand at the game, and many of them are lucky. We decided to strike while the iron is hot, and start the big game right away."

As soon as the man finished speaking, the crowd boiled again, and they all flocked to the stands.

"Everyone, don't worry, let's make it clear first." The buddy said calmly, "Everyone has seen that the rough stone behind me was transported all the way from southern Yunnan to the capital by the shopkeeper. , As for the specific time to open the rough stone, we will talk about it later."

The crowd cheered, and Wan Yan looked at Su Jizhi in puzzlement, "My lord, why is this? Why isn't it open? I'm still waiting to see the excitement."

Su Jizhi pointed at the woman in red, "The buddy said that the shopkeeper brought the rough stones from southern Yunnan. Why do I think that the woman in red was the one who brought the stones?"

Wan Yan looked at the girl in red again, but unfortunately she couldn't see it clearly from her perspective.

I only guessed that the girl was tall, with slender arms, standing beside the shopkeeper, she could be half a head taller than him.

The woman in red raised her face, her face was fair and calm, but her eyes were glamorous.

The girl stared at the boiling crowd, and for some reason, Wan Yan felt an aloofness that disregarded the world of mortals from her.

"Why don't you open it tonight? Also, how did your lord know that the stone was not brought by the shopkeeper?"

"It's not going to open tonight, it's just to tantalize your appetite. You know that the price of betting stones has risen, so give everyone enough time to brew. No matter whether it succeeds or not, the person who transported the stones will make a lot of money."

Wan Yan looked at the woman in red, "Why does your lord say that this girl transported the stone to the capital?"

"Although the shopkeeper is standing beside her, the toe of the shoe is half an inch back. From my perspective, I would always look at the woman before speaking. They came out of the inner hall not to watch the excitement."

"What's that for?"

"Let everyone believe that this is true. There must be jade in the stone." Su Jizhi replied softly.

At this time, many people rushed to the stands, and some even used their knives to scratch the rough stone lightly.

It's a pity that there are too many people and too many eyes, no one can succeed.

More than a dozen men gathered around the rough stone, discussing and stroking it, their eyes gleamed, and desire was written on everyone's face.

"What about us? Just watch the fun like this?" Wan Yan felt a little sorry, and she wanted to see what the process of betting on rough stones was like.

Looking at the lord disappointedly, Su Jizhi stared at the center of the hall with a smile on his face, "We still hold on to our silver. This is a bet that the rough stone is a bottomless pit. Imagine how rich a country can be if such a big stone produces emerald?"

Wan Yan looked at the woman in red, could this be a scam?

Then she is an amazing girl.

"If so many people can be convinced, this girl has the ability to manipulate people's hearts."

Su Jizhi sneered, "She's not manipulating people's hearts, greed is just human nature."
