Spring is coming

Chapter 46 Going to the Casino

Mo Jingchun was happy for Mo He because she was just like herself in her previous life. She didn't dare to fight back when she was beaten or scolded. Fortunately, Mrs. Gao supported her and divorced her, but she didn't.

She has lived in two lives and has never understood why some people are so obsessed with gambling.

This thing is like the plague, once it gets on it, it's over.

Some people who are locked up by their families and forced to borrow money for gambling addiction, unless they are not allowed to carry money out alone for the rest of their lives, it is most likely that they will take the money to the casino again.

Those people who regretted it afterwards said that they were obsessed with it at the time, thinking that what if they had won back their money?
After hearing her doubts, Bo Qingshan decided to take her to see with her own eyes what was going on inside the casino.

He asked Hang Sheng to drive a carriage to a clothing store and buy Mo Jingchun a men's upper body suit.

"Hey, it really looks like that!"

Hang Sheng smiled and clapped his hands. At this time, Mo Jingchun put on new clothes and completely transformed into a handsome young man.

The daughter's stature has not yet developed, so no one can tell.

She herself felt that this appearance was fresh and a little strange, so she asked Bo Qingshan: "Why do you have to dress like this to go in? Is it possible that gambling houses are not allowed for women?"

"That's not the case." Bo Qingshan explained with a fan on his face, "There is a mixed crowd in the gambling shop, and it is inevitable that people from Mojia Village will be mixed in. Dress up so that no one will recognize you. It would be bad if your grandma found out about the misunderstanding. ”

It turned out to be the case.

Mo Jingchun followed him, walked through several alleys, and came to an inconspicuous wine shop.

"This is?"

Mo Jingchun looked at it again uncertainly, wasn't it said that the gambling shop was crowded with people?The place was very clean, and there was a closing sign on the door.

Could it be a gambling house?

"Although this gambling den is said to be basically ignored by the government, it is forbidden by Daliang law after all, so they don't dare to be arrogant. They are probably just pretending to open the tavern in front of it. You will know when you follow me in."

It's called a wine shop, but it's actually a gambling establishment.

Mo Jingchun nodded in understanding and followed him into the wine shop, where there were only a few tables drinking.

Bo Qingshan, a familiar person, exchanged a few secret words with the waiter in the palace, and the waiter happily led him to the back kitchen and opened a secret door like a cellar.

Going down the stairs, there is indeed a cave below, which is very lively.

There were all kinds of noises from smokers, drinkers, and gamblers, making it so noisy that it gave people a headache.

"Is this your first time here, sir?"

There is also a dedicated casino steward below, who is very good at observing people's words. They see Bo Qingshan and the others are unfamiliar but they are brightly dressed and have a warm attitude and dare not neglect him.

Next to him stood a line of thugs who were all fat and strong. This was to deter people from trying to steal money or cheat, and also to beat them up when collecting debts.

Bo Qingshan exchanged a few taels of silver chips and refused the steward's offer. He grabbed Mo Jingchun and stood in front of a table where gambling was in full swing, and asked, "Do you want to give it a try?"

Mo Jingchun shook his head desperately to avoid it, with a frightened look on his face.

Bo Qingshan was amused and laughed loudly: "I brought you here to warn you. This is not a scourge. As long as you are calm, what are you afraid of it doing? Haven't you heard that small bets are good, but big bets are harmful to the body?"

No matter how he tried to persuade him, Mo Jingchun still refused. She didn't want to try, she just watched.

Bo Qingshan didn't force her, and he casually followed the people in front of him to place a bet, throwing half of the chips in without being conspicuous at all - a few taels of silver could be enough for a family to chew for a month outside, or it could be enough for one person. A farmer's family has been working hard for several months to earn income, but they can't even make a splash in the casino.

However, many people saw such a young man coming to the casino and couldn't help but take a closer look.Mo Jingchun now felt that it was very necessary for Bo Qingshan to let her pretend.

She didn't want to be noticed by those people, so she buried her face behind Bo Qingshan's sleeves, exposing one eye.

The people around Bo Qingshan smiled and talked to him: "Young master is so skinny, why did you bring the casino? Won't your lady get angry with you?"

???

Was she directly regarded as Bo Qingshan's son?
Surprised, she secretly glanced at Bo Qingshan's face, and sure enough she saw that the smile on his face was forced out: "Thank you, this is my brother."

No one would be relieved if a 17-year-old boy was regarded as the father of a ten-year-old child, right?
The man was shocked and apologized quickly.

"Big!"

"Big!"

"Small!"

"Small!"

"Big!"

The two different voices were particularly intense. Mo Jingchun's attention was attracted by them and he quietly asked Bo Qingshan what he was doing.
The casino was noisy and she couldn't hear what she said clearly. Bo Qingshan also lowered his head to her ear and explained the rules: "This is the simplest and most common way of playing in the casino. The banker and the opponent each have three chances to roll the dice. Big or small, whoever wins the round will be remembered as the winner. If there is a tie, the opponent will win. If you win all three rounds, you will get all the chips. If you win two rounds, you will get half of the opponent and all of yourself. The person who bets will be in proportion. Come and split the money.”

"." Mo Jingchun was so close to him that he felt his voice vibrating against his eardrums, making her feel itchy and numb.

He nodded confusedly and looked at the gambling table again.

They had just beaten the banker, who had already won the first game. The second game resulted in a tie. According to the rules, the opponent won.

The key now is in the last round. Whoever has the bigger points can win half of the chips on the other side's table.

"Jingchun, guess who is older and who is younger?"

Bo Qingshan's patient coaxing came from behind her head, and his voice was like a bait, tempting her to make a dangerous choice.

Mo Jingchun nervously licked his dry lower lip and whispered: "Banker."

They beat the dealer, naturally hoping that the dealer would win.

The man sitting in the dealer's seat was also very stressed, with beads of sweat on his forehead, staring closely at the dice pot, waiting to be called out.

Bo Qingshan chuckled and said, "He can't win."

"Ah?" Before Mo Jingchun could think about it, he saw the game started. Sure enough, his opponent won, and the audience was filled with sighs.

"Why?" Mo Jingchun thought about what he said before the game started, and turned around suddenly, in disbelief, "How did you know in advance?"

"Have you seen the pile of chips in his hand? That's what he won today. With so many people betting on him just now, they must have seen him win for a long time." Bo Qingshan shook his head as if regretfully, "If he continues to win, the bet will be I'm afraid the shop will close, so I will definitely cool down the temperature for these people."

Then how does the gambling shop know that this opponent will definitely win?
Seeing her doubts, Bo Qingshan chuckled: "Of course it's because this couple belongs to the casino. The dice in his hand are different from other dice in the casino."

"These people are all fine. If you have never been here, you will win a few small games first, so that you will have no doubt about your luck. Then gradually, you will have mixed wins and losses, and then you will only lose. .”

Speaking of these methods, Bo Qingshan's eyes were slightly cold: "The best thing about gambling houses is to seize the weaknesses of people's hearts. Only in this way can those people embark on the path of gambling even if they sell their land and girls."
