Please show your spirit to our ancestors

Chapter 242: Gambling, I'm a Professional

……

Seeing Chen Shiyun didn't say anything.

Young Prince Guangzhi couldn't help but raise his eyebrows again: "Young lady, are you unconvinced? Do you want me to show you my tact again?"

He could tolerate everything else, but he couldn't stand being questioned about his gambling skills.

After all, he is the man who will inherit the Zhenbei Palace and Duobao Pavilion in the future.

"Young prince." The gambling stall owner said with a flattering smile, "You underestimated this girl. She is a master at gambling. Just now, she took away the biggest treasure on my gambling stall with only a thousand spirit stones."

"Oh? You actually have such ability?" Young Prince Guangzhi couldn't help but glance sideways, and the look he gave Chen Shiyan became more serious.

He knew that all the gambling stall owners who could survive in this gambling street were shrewd people.

It may seem that they only make 25% of the turnover from gambling on treasures, but they are all proficient in psychological tactics, and can use the ingenious layout of the treasures in the stalls and the verbal tactics of pretending to be real and pretending to be fake, so as to greatly reduce the probability of gamblers winning the big treasure.

Anyone who can win a treasure by betting on it with only a thousand spirit stones is either very lucky or has an extremely strong eye for identifying treasures, far surpassing that of the stall owner.

No matter which point it was, it aroused the interest of Prince Guangzhi.

"Wow~"

He opened his folding fan, swayed it gently, and looked at Chen Shiyun with interest: "I didn't expect that the young lady is actually a master of gambling on treasures. Since you doubt my ability to identify treasures, let's have a competition to see who is the master."

Chen Shiyun's eyes rolled around, and she immediately showed an excited expression, as if she had met a fat sheep, but she quickly suppressed it one by one, pretending to be disdainful and said: "Just a competition is too simple."

When Prince Guangzhi saw her expression, he couldn't help but snort coldly.

You are such a stupid, arrogant, superficial and greedy woman. I, Jiang Guangzhi, will teach you a good lesson today, lest you think that this little prince is just a second-generation rich kid.

Jiang Guangzhi immediately showed a provocative expression: "Miss, what do you want to bet on?"

"If the young prince is afraid, then forget it." Chen Shiyan snorted.

Having followed her mother to run a gambling stall since she was young, she is naturally well versed in the psychological tactics of taking advantage of others. For young people like Jiang Guangzhi, who have a very good family background and a high self-esteem, provocation is often the most effective method.

"Afraid? Haha, this little prince will let you see what 'family tradition' means." Jiang Guangzhi also sneered.

He swept his eyes across the surrounding gambling stalls, and finally landed in front of a larger stall. He pointed over there and said, "Do you see that stall? That's the famous Cai Yifa in our gambling street, the gambling stall of Boss Cai. Boss Cai was famous in the gambling street when he was young, and was known as 'One Shot into the Soul'. He was truly an expert among experts, and the gambling stall he ran was recognized as one of the most difficult."

"But even so, there are still many people who patronize Mr. Cai's gambling stall, because his goods are genuine and fair, and the quality and price are better than those of other stall owners."

The boss who was named laughed and cupped his hands: "Young Prince Guangzhi, thank you for your praise."

"Boss Cai has several stalls, ranging from one bet of 100 spirit stones, to one bet of 1,000 spirit stones, to the top stall of one bet of 10,000 spirit stones. Which one do you want to bet on?"

Can I get one bet of ten thousand spirit stones?
Even Chen Shiyun was shocked.

Do the people in the imperial capital play so big?

"Although 10,000 spirit stones per note is extremely expensive, the items are good." Jiang Guangzhi said, "The biggest treasure in the stall is a high-quality mid-grade magic weapon, estimated to be worth about 300,000 or 400,000 yuan, the other medium treasures can also be worth 50,000 or 60,000 yuan, and the small treasures can also be worth more than 10,000 yuan."

"Okay, let's play this." Chen Shiyun was excited and eager to try.

Anyway, she has her ancestors protecting her from behind, so what is she afraid of? She must teach this second-generation rich kid a lesson.

"Wait, since the girl thinks it's plain, let's try something new." Jiang Guangzhi waved his folding fan and said with a smile, "You and I will take turns to place bets at Mr. Cai's gambling stall. Whoever wins any treasure first will have to pay the other party an extra spiritual stone of a treasure."

"For example, if the young lady wins a small treasure first, not only will she get that small treasure, but I will also have to pay her an additional 10,000 spirit stones. If the young lady wins a big treasure first, I will pay her an additional 300,000 spirit stones!"

"So, does that mean our way of playing is no longer simple?"

"This..." Seeing that the other party was betting so big, Chen Shiyun was really a little hesitant.

However, just as she hesitated, she heard the familiar buzzing sound of the Cangqing Treasure Shield in her ears, as if encouraging her to go forward.

That’s right, it was Chen Xuanmo who was instigating this behind the scenes.

The family has been losing money in large quantities during this period. Although these are necessary investments for the next money-making plan, it is also good to have the opportunity to make a profit.

Will this young Prince Guangzhi cheat?

Of course it's impossible to cheat.

Chen Xuanmo had already used the Heroic Spirit Sky Eye Technique to take a look at him. This kid was actually a top-notch genius with dual spiritual roots, a standard heir to the Zhenbei Palace. He would not destroy the reputation of the palace for a few hundred thousand spirit stones.

What's more, this time Chen tried so hard to win over Master Hong Fu, wasn't it just to be prepared for any eventuality?
In this world, Nascent Soul cultivators have considerable status and intimidation wherever they go.

With the support of his ancestors, Chen Shiyun felt more confident. Without saying anything, he reached out to his own master and said, "Dad, give me 100,000 spirit stone tickets to play with first."

Chen Jingyun was speechless.

However, he knew that it was his great grandfather who was helping Shi Yan, and he was powerless to stop him, so he had to take out 100,000 spirit stone notes and handed them over, adding: "You damn girl, don't get lost in this."

Gongsun Keming who was standing by was almost fainting.

Although she knew that Sister Shiyan's family was rich, she never expected that they were so rich that they could just casually take out 100,000 spirit stone tickets for her sister to play!

Ke Ming ah Ke Ming~
Our family is too poor, and once she is sent to the sect, she won't be able to help much. You must curry favor with Sister Shiyun, and do whatever she asks you to do.

Such a lavish attitude made Jiang Guangzhi look at him with awe.

I thought that after this set of combined skills, the girl would probably back down, but I didn't expect that she was so rich.

Such an interesting and rare scene naturally aroused the enthusiasm of the onlookers.

Soon, the area was packed with spectators, and even the surrounding buildings were crowded with spectators.

With so many people around, naturally someone recognized Chen Jingyun and his group.

This is the wealthy outsider who has become famous today. Not only did he spend tens of thousands of gold to stay in the most expensive True Immortal Suite in the Hidden Immortal Building, he also casually spent 700,000 or 800,000 spirit stones in the Immortal Clothing Pavilion.

Now, he actually wants to compete with Young Prince Jiang Guangzhi in gambling for treasures?
Everyone in the Tianyuan Dynasty knew that the young Prince Guangzhi had a great talent for gambling and had an outstanding vision.

This outsider rich man from the countryside actually dared to compete with the young prince in appraising treasures. I don't know whether he is really capable and confident, or he is just short-sighted and ignorant.

In short.

Everyone is looking forward to what will happen next.

"My name is Jiang Guangzhi. May I ask your name, young lady?" Jiang Guangzhi stood in front of Cai Yifa's gambling stall and asked with a smile.

"Chen Shiyun." Chen Shiyun's expression was calm and composed, and he also said with a smile, "Young Prince Guangzhi, have you prepared the spiritual stones for compensation?"

"Don't worry, our Zhenbei Wang lineage has been running Duobao Pavilion for tens of thousands of years, and the reputation is more than just a few hundred thousand spirit stones." Jiang Guangzhi said politely, "You are a guest from afar, so you can choose first, young lady."

"You're welcome, that one."

Chen Shiyun didn't bother to be polite with him. After he finished speaking, he began to carefully observe the hundreds of treasures on the gambling stall.

She also wanted to try her own eyesight to see if she could identify the treasure.

However, she had completely given up observing the stall owner Cai Yifa's expression, so as not to be influenced and fooled by him. After all, this old fox had been immersed in gambling for many years and was definitely not something a little fledgling like her could compare to.

Unfortunately.

She thought about it for a long time, but still wasn't sure.

There were some items that she had a strong feeling were "Dabao", but on second thought, if she could identify Dabao so easily, she would have gone bankrupt countless times once she made a fortune.

Those are mostly traps, designed to trick people like me who don't understand much.

"Please, ancestor, show yourself."

Chen Shiyun gave up struggling, simply lay down and began to seek help from his ancestors.

As she finished speaking, an invisible orange mark condensed and appeared on her forehead, and then as her eyes swept across the gambling stall, it suddenly shattered and turned into countless stars and disappeared.

Orange mark. For a small occasion like this, there must be only orange mark.

Otherwise, once a red mark is left, who knows what kind of garbage will be gambled out.

Chen Shiyun's heart moved slightly, and his eyes fell on an ancient-looking shield. He casually took it and said, "This is it."

The next moment, the shield flew into her hands.

With a casual wipe of his hand on the shield, the exquisite camouflage on the shield was immediately washed away as the spiritual power swept through it. It was like a dusty pearl that had been cleansed of dust and instantly became bright.

The overall shape of the shield is like a drop of water, emitting a bright light blue.

This is a water-based spiritual shield with beautiful lines and a lustrous luster. At first glance, it looks like a flawless work of art. It is more spiritual and lustrous than those so-called high-grade spiritual weapons.

"Top-grade water-based spiritual weapon?"

Chen Shiyun's pupils suddenly shrank.

She could hardly believe her eyes. Top-grade spiritual weapons were extremely rare, and their prices were even higher than those of ordinary magic weapons.

Just as Chen Shiyun was surprised, there was a burst of noise around him.

Top-grade water-based spiritual weapon?

How can it be! ?
Cai Yifa was actually willing to put spiritual weapons of this level into the treasure, and this girl gambled it out in the first bet?

Cai Yifa's face was also filled with regret and heartache. He had been running the gambling stall for a long time, and inevitably felt tired of the boring life day after day. Occasionally, he would take a risk and put himself in danger to add a little excitement to the uncertainty of life.

Therefore, he would often hide some particularly excellent treasures in the gambling stalls when no one was paying attention, just to make people's heart beat faster.

Of course, this is also because he is very skilled and bold, and extremely confident in his ability to forge things.

Of course, sometimes someone gets lucky and gets lucky.

However, this led to rumors that the quality of the goods at his gambling stall was far superior to those of other stalls, and his business became more and more prosperous.

But he didn't expect that the top-grade spiritual weapon that he didn't have time to take out was actually won by this girl in the gamble.

"..." Jiang Guangzhi was still confused and hadn't reacted yet.

Did you win on the first try?

"Boss Cai, how much can this top-grade water-based spiritual weapon be worth?" Chen Shiyun was very satisfied with his luck and asked with a smile.

Cai Yifa showed a bitter smile: "This treasure is of excellent quality, and the normal selling price is between 70,000 and 100,000 spiritual stones. However, it is the 'medium treasure' of this gambling stall. According to the agreement between you and Little Prince Guangzhi, he only needs to pay you an additional 50,000 spiritual stones."

"Of course, if the young lady is willing to let me take it back, I will only pay 50,000 spirit stones."

The transaction price of general treasures is not constant. It is often sold at different prices depending on different environments, customer needs, etc.

This kind of treasure appraisal betting is not uncommon at treasure gambling stalls. In order to avoid disputes over the price of treasures, compensation is usually paid according to the standard price.

Chen Shiyun naturally couldn't let Cai Yifa take back this treasure, so he put it into his storage bag and said to Jiang Guangzhi: "Young Prince Guangzhi..."

"Girl, you have good eyesight. I admire you."

Jiang Guangzhi came back to his senses and without hesitation took out 50,000 spirit stone notes and handed them to Chen Shiyun.

"Now, it's my turn."

His eyes fell on the gambling stall.

This time, he was extremely serious. He looked for a whole incense stick of time before choosing a wooden sword. After taking it, he washed away all the extravagance and the wooden sword revealed its true appearance.

It was a top-grade wood spirit sword.

Seeing that he had won the jackpot, there was cheering at the scene.

However, Jiang Guangzhi himself shook his head helplessly.

This is just a "small treasure". No matter how valuable it is, Chen Shiyun only needs to pay him 10,000 spirit stones.

Chen Shiyun was also very surprised by this.

I didn't expect that this young prince was so capable. No wonder he dared to gamble with her.

After paying the money, she became more serious, silently chanted "Ancestors, please show up", and then started to choose.

After a while, she won a magic weapon of good quality.

But the estimated value of that magic weapon should be less than 50,000, so she simply didn't want it and asked Cai Yifa to buy it back for 50,000 spirit stones.

At the same time, she received 50,000 spirit stones as compensation from Jiang Guangzhi.

This orange mark directly earned her 100,000 spirit stones.

You wouldn't say it makes a lot of money, but it's still much better than the normal orange mark income, so it's still cost-effective overall.

Chen Xuanmo also felt that it was just so-so and was not surprised. Chen Jingyun and his group also reacted calmly.

But the other onlookers at the scene were all numb.

This is too outrageous! This girl is either the reincarnation of a thousand-year-old fox, or the daughter of destiny!
Subsequently.

Jiang Guangzhi won another top-grade spiritual weapon in his bet... Chen Shiyun continued to pay him 10,000 spiritual stones.

I have to admit that Jiang Guangzhi is still quite fierce.

He won twice in a row. No wonder he would use the method of throwing money to train his eyesight. Otherwise, which boss would be willing to receive him if he were to play in a gambling stall? The money he earned was not enough to cover his losses.

Then came Chen Shiyun’s third bet.

Everyone at the scene held their breath and concentrated.

After seeing the previous two rounds, their thoughts have now become two extremes. Either they think that Chen Shiyun can't possibly win the third prize, or they guess that she will continue to win.

However, what happened next was beyond everyone's expectations.

This time, Chen Shiyun was interested in an ordinary scimitar.

She raised her hand and took the scimitar back.

Upon seeing this scene, the gambling stall owner Cai Yifa was so shocked that he could not stand and fell to the ground.

How can it be?

This is impossible!

I hid it very well!
It is so inconspicuous that even Cai Yifa used all kinds of psychological tactics against it!

Theoretically, the probability of it being picked out is less than one in one hundred and fifty, and this is Cai Yifa's way of survival.

Cai Yifa's embarrassing and distracted performance instantly caused an uproar.

No way, no way, could it be that this girl won the big treasure in the bet?
Jiang Guangzhi's heart also skipped a beat.

Don't scare me, Cai Yifa, please stand up, please stand up and say something, I'm just joking with you guys...

It’s a pity that Cai Yifa didn’t stand up as he wished.

At this time, Chen Shiyun had used his spiritual power to wash away the layers of disguise on the scimitar, and its true appearance was revealed.

It was a precious sword that was emerald green all over and had an extremely beautiful shape, emitting an endless and strong wood-based spiritual power.

"This is a mid-grade magic weapon - [Yi Mu Treasure Sword]."

At this point, Cai Yifa finally recovered, stood up tremblingly, and explained to everyone the origin of this treasure.

This Yimu sword is of extraordinary quality, and is considered excellent even among mid-grade magic weapons. Duobao Pavilion once estimated its price at 320,000 spirit stones!

This is the magic weapon that many Wood Element Jindan cultivators dream of, which can greatly enhance their combat effectiveness.

He was also lucky to have gotten such a mid-grade sword of extraordinary quality, which he used as the finale treasure in a high-end gambling stall with a bet of 10,000 yuan.

Who would have thought that Dabao would be gambled out after only the fifth time? This time, he suffered a huge loss when he made a fortune! ! !

Unfortunately, people do not share the same joys and sorrows.

Master Changsheng stared at the willow-leaf-shaped sword, his mouth almost watering with greed: "What a treasure, what a treasure~"

If he could get this sword, he would be able to fight against Master Taiyue without being chased and beaten by the other party.

Jiang Guangzhi was in a daze.

He won three prizes in three bets, and even won the biggest prize in the last one. Is it so outrageous?
Jiang Guangzhi had never heard of such an eye for gambling in his life. Even if his ancestor who was extremely good at gambling tens of thousands of years ago were alive, it would be difficult for him to do such an outrageous thing.

When technology can no longer do something, the only solution becomes luck.

"Young Prince Guangzhi, you look dazed, so you won't default on your debt, right?" Seeing that everyone was staring at the Yi Mu sword, Chen Shiyun quickly put it into his storage bag, and then reminded Jiang Guangzhi in front of everyone.

Jiang Guangzhi suddenly came back to his senses and waved his hands repeatedly, saying, "Don't worry, Miss Shiyun, our Zhenbei Wang family is still trustworthy, but... I don't have that many spirit stone tickets on me, so please wait here for a while, I'll go get them for you."

"Or, please accompany me to Duobao Pavilion."

"No more gambling?"

"Of course not. The girl has an excellent eye. I, Guangzhi, admit defeat." Jiang Guangzhi's face was bitter.

He never expected that one day he would be bruised and battered by a girl in his gambling ability, which he was most proud of.

There was a pause.

His eyes suddenly lit up: "Oh, right, young lady, you have extraordinary luck, why don't you go into my ancient treasure house and have a try, maybe you'll get lucky and win a Nascent Soul Spirit Treasure."

Yuanying spiritual treasure?

Are you kidding?

Chen Shiyun didn't believe it at all.

The things in his family's ancient treasure house must have been screened thousands of times. If there really were Nascent Soul spiritual treasures, how could they not find it?
But you still have to pay when you deserve it.

In public, she was not afraid that Jiang Guangzhi would cheat.

At that moment, surrounded by countless onlookers, the Chen family and Jiang Guangzhi came to the famous Duobao Pavilion on Duobao Street.
