The road to immortality for a hundred generations

Chapter 75: Searched seventeen houses and harvested 4000 taels.

"Ah! Help! Killed!"

"No, don't kill me. I'll give you all the money. Give it all to you. Don't kill me!"

However, in just a few seconds, noisy and harsh sounds came from the casino, and the entire casino became commotion.

"That strong man just now went to the casino to look for trouble?"

Wang Dashan was filled with expectations and anxiety.

If the person in charge of this casino dies, then he doesn't have to pay back the five taels of silver he borrowed.

Soon, many gamblers poured out of the casino room and ran outside.

Wang Dashan struggled to steady himself in the crowd of fleeing people. After hesitating for a while, he finally decided to leave and come back tomorrow.

When tomorrow comes, if Brother Long is not dead, he can only pay back five taels of silver, but if the other party dies, he will be debt-free!

"Only 600 taels? It's a bit less."

After roughly turning over the large banknotes in his hand, Wang Feng shook his head in disappointment.

There is no way, the bigger casinos in the Imperial City will involve first-class warriors, and most of the first-class warriors were labeled as colluding with the Demonic Cult because they went to the Grandmaster's Banquet, which eventually led to the seizure of all the industries related to them.

All that is left to him now is a small gambling shop with a few dilapidated tile-roofed houses put together.

"Forget it, no matter how small a mosquito is, it's still meat."

After collecting the banknotes, Wang Feng stuffed larger silver ingots, broken silver, etc. into the package he brought.

As for the copper coins, he didn't even bother to put them on. They took up too much space and were inconvenient to carry around.

What is unexpected is that there are actually a lot of broken silver in this package.

Wang Feng weighed the package and felt that it was almost 200 taels.

Calculated based on 16 taels per catty, it is about twelve catties.

After hiding the money from the casino robbery in the rented courtyard, Wang Feng continued to walk towards the next casino he had inquired about.

It is said that the Wei Dynasty had a ban on gambling, but later the government found that the ban on gambling could not completely eliminate the demand for gambling, so they took some measures to facilitate management and taxation.

As for the ban on gambling, it has not been completely abolished, but the penalties have been reduced a lot.

It is precisely because the gambling ban is somewhat restrictive that the number of casinos is much smaller than that of brothels.

For example, Qingshan County has a population of about 20, but there are more than [-] brothels, large and small, but only five or six casinos.

There are nearly 200 million people in the imperial city, whether it is a brothel or a casino, there are naturally more.

Judging from the population ratio between Imperial City and Qingshan County, there should be 210 brothels and 51 casinos in Imperial City.But in fact, there are only [-] registered brothels in the Imperial City and [-] registered casinos.

The reason why the gap is so big is that in a small county town, you may have a few houses, get a dozen women, and then say hello to the government officials, or simply open them secretly, it is better to call it a brothel than a brothel. Kiln.

In the Imperial City, formal procedures are required to open a brothel.

Without background and money, there is no way to start a business.

The Imperial City is more strict about the opening of casinos than brothels, but there will always be some people who take risks and open some illegal casinos for the sake of money.

Basically, it can be said that all small casinos in the Imperial City are black casinos.

"This is the sixth family. This family got 500 taels, which is not bad."

Glancing at the banknote in his hand, Wang Feng was very satisfied.

But he knew he had to continue.

Because once he stops today, when other casinos get the news tomorrow, they will close down and avoid the limelight.

Sure enough, in the afternoon, just after arriving at Shenshi, Wang Feng had already been rejected three times in succession.

It's not that he stopped going when the door was closed, but after passing by Tingqiang Gen, he made sure there was no one inside, so he moved on to the next house this time.If he met someone who was gambling inside with the door closed on the surface but actually still inside, Wang Feng would not be polite and would kill the person in charge as usual and collect the money to go to the next place.

"Seventeen families, that's almost it. Let's leave it at that for now."

In the small rented courtyard, Wang Feng counted the banknotes in his hand, feeling quite satisfied.

Today I got about 300 taels of silver notes, plus 800 taels of silver ingots and broken silver.

There are some scattered gold tickets and gold, but they are less than 100 taels.

According to the exchange rate of about one to ten gold and silver, today he collected a total of 4000 taels of silver from seventeen casinos.

"When I left Qingshan County, I brought 4 taels with me. However, I was busy all day today and raided 4000 casinos, but I only got [-] taels."

Wang Feng sighed.

Who could have expected that in the beautiful imperial city, an immortal cultivator would suddenly appear, and he was also a demon cultivator.

Otherwise, if you buy a large casino now, it will probably cost more than 4000 taels.

"A gentleman loves money and gets it wisely. Let's go see the traffickers tomorrow."

After hiding the collected gold and silver in a custom-made wooden box, Wang Feng walked towards the sunset and walked home.

After he planned to collect some more money, he would go to the major drug stores in the imperial city to buy medicinal materials and elixirs.

Now he clearly knows that Xingyue Palace and the royal family are all connected with the demon cultivator, so he must improve his strength as soon as possible and reach the master as soon as possible.

This will prevent possible accidents in the future.

When he was observing in Xingyue Palace, he could feel that Grandmaster Qingyue didn't seem to be very afraid of the demon cultivator, and the demon cultivator didn't have a very bad attitude towards Grandmaster Qingyue.

Although it was not evidence of Stone Hammer, Wang Feng felt that warriors at the master level should still pose a certain threat to the demon cultivator.

If you really can't wait until you become a master, you can leave Wei directly.

After all, the Grand Master can be called a land god, so naturally he will not be restricted by a mere Wei Dynasty.

"How's it going, Feng'er, how do you feel about your first day as a guard?"

As soon as he entered the door, Wang Feng heard Uncle An's voice.

"is acceptable,"

Wang Feng opened his mouth and started making up nonsense, "The girl's father passed away, and the business was taken over by her uncle. She was so angry that she came to the imperial city with some money, hoping to prove herself by doing business."

"Ah? Wouldn't that be difficult?"

Uncle An was surprised, "A girl goes all the way to the Imperial City to do business. Even if she hires someone from the escort agency, it's still very dangerous."

"So she has always wanted to hire a guard, but she is worried that the guard will seek wealth and harm her life. Moreover, Uncle An, you know the recent situation in the imperial city. It is not good to hire someone."

Wang Feng explained, "I rescued her yesterday, and she also saw that I was a warrior, so she thought of hiring me as a guard."

"Isn't that great, personal guard?"

Uncle An said cheerfully, "And maybe, that girl is attracted to you."

"Who knows."

Wang Feng said casually and perfunctorily.

Anyway, he made it up, whatever Uncle An thinks.

Even if the other party goes to verify it on the spot, there is indeed a small courtyard, and he himself is indeed there.

As for where the girl went, she must have gone to do business.
