Chapter 1201 Lost
The documents were quickly established, and in order to show fairness, many onlookers present spontaneously signed their names as witnesses of the gambling.

Holding the document in duplicate in his hand, Steward Hong had an obvious smile on his lips, obviously he must win this gamble.

However, Zhong Yingming was not far behind. He gambled against Guanshi Hong for seven days in Sifang Casino, and he was the one who won all the time, and he won no less than a thousand taels of silver.

When he came here today, he just heard that it was the last day for Steward Hong to gamble. If he didn't change his luck, he would wash his hands and stop gambling.

Zhong Yingming gambled most of the time when he lost, how could he win so much like now?

Utilitarianism coupled with Manager Hong's urgency to leave drove him to take all the hundreds of taels of silver he had won in the past few days, and was ready to come back for the big ones.

In fact, he has won nearly a thousand taels, but he has almost squandered it these few days, leaving only a few hundred taels.

I thought I could get another big sum today, but I didn't think that he would lose as soon as he entered the gambling house.

Seeing that it was the last one, he didn't believe that his luck would be so bad!
Let's put all his eggs in one basket, anyway, he has a lot of debts now, and Mrs. Zhong also said that the Zhuangzi shops that she married as a dowry belonged to her in the end, and now she just got them in advance.

"The last one, please!"

Steward Hong put the written documents by his hand, and looked at Zhong Yingming with a half-smile.

Still throwing dice to bet on the size, to show fairness, this time the person who rolled the dice deliberately changed a young man who came to watch the excitement.

Zhong Yingming knew this young man, he had been fooling around in the Sifang Gambling Shop for the past few days, and he was also an ignorant gangster.

His gambling skills are not good, and he often loses, so he must be a rookie who can't cheat.

"Hey, it's really a little trembling for the young one to take on such a big responsibility, hey."

The young man accidentally dropped the dice as soon as he got it. He laughed at himself in embarrassment, which made everyone laugh.

Guanshi Hong also laughed, but Zhong Yingming couldn't. He was too nervous. The old lady's Zhuangzi shops were already his last cards, not to mention that he also counted the Zhuangzi where he lives now. If this game is really lost, their family will really have nowhere to go.

However, Zhong Yingming, who cared about face, did not show the slightest sign of apprehension after all, and also laughed dryly, his eyes fixed on the dice cup in the young man's hand.

Bang bang bang bang.

The dice cup was shaking vigorously in the young man's hand. The young man may have shaken the cup deliberately to show off himself, until everyone got impatient and then smiled and slapped the cup on the table. .

Everyone could vaguely hear the sound of the dice spinning around in the cup, until the sound disappeared, and everyone looked nervously at the two people sitting at the table.

Guanshi Hong still had that casual look, and said with a smile: "Master Zhong seems to be unlucky today, if that's the case, please place your bet first!"

At the moment of life and death, who cares about Kong Rong's high morals?

Zhong Yingming wished that Steward Hong would let him bet first, so that his chances of winning would be much higher.

He swallowed dryly, vacillating between the two squares, the chips in his hand were about to be crushed.

Snapped!
Finally, he closed his eyes and picked one.

"I bet big!"

Steward Hong raised his eyebrows, there seemed to be a gleam in his eyes, and the sarcasm on his lips also disappeared.

He leisurely pushed out the chips in front of him: "Since that's the case, then I'll take a small bet."

Seeing this, the surrounding audience shook their heads one after another. There were no less than dozens of dice games played today, almost all of them were big, and only a few times were small.

Now Guanshi Hong has given up on the big one with the highest probability, but wants to pick the small one. It's really worrying!
Zhong Yingming craned his neck to take a look, and breathed a sigh of relief.

If Steward Hong had chosen the same as him, then the round would have to start all over again. Fortunately, he did not choose the same one as him.

Zhong Yingming seemed to have seen the dawn of victory, and the smile on his face was very obvious: "Guard Hong, you should think about it, buy it and leave, don't wait until you open the cup to regret it!"

This appearance of boasting without shame and even holding the chance of winning made many people very unhappy when they saw it.

Manager Hong was not annoyed, he just smiled lightly and said, "This sentence is also given to Mr. Zhong."

The young man who was in charge of rolling the dice looked around and saw that both of them were nodding to him, so he yelled "Buy and leave" and opened the dice cup quickly.

Wow!
After a moment of silence, there was a loud noise like thunder, and everyone sighed or shouted, and shouted one after another.

"Small? It's actually small! It's so strange!"

"Opened another small one? This is the sixth small one today!"

"It's not uncommon. Most of them have opened more than 20, and I only have six. Steward Hong's good luck has returned!"

"Haha, Steward Hong has finally found someone to help him replace his bad luck!"

Amidst the laughter, everyone turned their attention to Zhong Yingming who was in a daze.At this moment, his eyes were empty and silly, just like a log.

Steward Hong hooked his lips, flicked the paper at hand, and said with a smile, "Master Zhong, in three days, I'll wait for you to bring over the title deeds of all the Zhuangzi's shops. Oh, by the way, as for the Zhuangzi where you live now, I also hope that your family will move away quickly, I don't like to wait for others."

Maybe it was Guanshi Hong's words that had an effect, or maybe it was the laughter of the people next to him that woke him up, Zhong Yingming shook his shoulders, and finally regained his senses.

He suddenly stood up from the stool, frantically pointed at the three small dice on the table, and shouted firmly: "You cheated! How could it be small, it is obviously big! It must be you! Old Qian! Hong, you and this kid teamed up to lie to me, I don’t recognize it, I don’t recognize it!”

The huge blow knocked Zhong Yingming out of his senses, and the yelling sounded like a bellows had been broken, causing all the people in the Sifang Casino to look sideways.

Although everyone does not know the details of Sifang Casino, the rules are clear.

Everyone looked at Zhong Yingming with some pity, but after finding out what happened, they looked at him with a bit of contempt.

Willing to gamble and admit defeat, even signed the paperwork, but then come to slander others for cheating, really shameless!

"You, don't talk nonsense!"

The young man who threw the dice was flushed and looked at a loss, obviously he was wronged and he couldn't tell.

Steward Hong raised his hand to interrupt him, and smiled coldly: "Master Zhong, do you know the name of the place where you are?"

Startled by Manager Hong's stern voice, Zhong Yingming subconsciously closed his mouth.

Manager Hong obviously didn't have the patience to wait for his answer, so he said, "This is the Sifang Gambling House. Although it is not the most famous and profitable gambling house in the whole capital, it is definitely the most famous gambling house. Because there is no one here. Qian, it’s not that no one will, it’s that old Qian dare not come.”

While speaking, Steward Hong took a few steps closer to Zhong Yingming, presenting the stern look on his face more clearly in front of Zhong Yingming.

"Do you know why? Because anyone who dared to come to the Sifang Gambling House to get cheats had their hands chopped off and thrown out."

This should be the real reason why the boy who rolled the dice was so frightened that he could stutter and be speechless!

Zhong Yingming's body trembled, but he continued to speak stubbornly: "You, how do you prove that he didn't cheat? You are from Sifang Casino. If you cheat, no one will be able to tell."

Haha.

Loud laughter echoed in the casino, and the guests in the casino shook their heads one after another, showing contemptuous smiles.

This time, there was no need for Manager Hong to speak up, someone had already explained it for him.

"I said, Mr. Zhong, you should admit it quickly. Manager Hong has been obsessed with gambling since he was a child, and his specialty is throwing dice. However, he does not rely on luck, but on this."

The man pointed to his ear, and patted his shoulder sympathetically.

Zhong Yingming's legs trembled, and he finally gave up. So, just now, Manager Hong did it on purpose. In fact, he heard the size of the dice!

and many more!

Zhong Yingming, who has never been very smart, unexpectedly figured out something miraculously. No wonder Manager Hong asked him to place a bet first. It turned out that this was also arranged by him in advance.

Planted, planted!
This time it was really a big somersault!
Zhong Yingming staggered out, but before he took two steps, he was blocked by two burly men.

Steward Hong's voice came from the stairs on the second floor: "Master Zhong, no one has ever dared to frame others for cheating in Sifang Casino, do you know why?"

The veins on Zhong Yingming's forehead couldn't help but twitch, is this thing over yet?

Steward Hong's voice came from behind: "Because those who slander others cannot go out."

Ah!
The burly man came forward, Zhong Yingming screamed almost in despair.

In the room on the second floor, Lin Yuan looked at the paperwork in her hand with a smile on her face, and couldn't help but praise: "Brother Hong is really good, this game is well done!"

Guanshi Hong was a friend that Xia Zheng met when he was traveling abroad in the early years. Because this person was very good at gambling, Xia Zheng respected him very much.

Later when he came to the capital, he happened to be recruited by Xia Zheng to the Sifang Casino.Although he is only a steward in name, in fact, he has the final say on the big and small affairs of Sifang Casino.

"It's such a small matter, it's nothing to worry about."

Guanshi Hong and Xia Zheng are brothers with different surnames, and they have long regarded Lin Yuan as their younger brother and sister, so there is no restriction on being with her.

Seeing Steward Hong drinking tea slowly, Lin Yuan's lips curled up slightly, and she sent the paper back: "Brother Hong, my purpose is to let Zhong Yingming go bankrupt. As for his things, I don't want them. So, these Everything you have won, should be left to you.”

In fact, she wanted to get these things into her hands and then gave them to Mrs. Ming. Mrs. Ming lost too much for the Zhong family, and now taking back these shops and Zhuangzi can be regarded as some compensation for her.

However, Guanshi Hong is not someone else, if she is just a servant working under her hand, she would be ashamed to use other rewards instead.

Lin Yuan's worries were not a problem for Steward Hong at all. He shrugged his shoulders with disdain, and said with a snort, "I don't like such a little thing. Since my siblings are trying their best to want him There must be reasons for going bankrupt, so let's take these things back and make arrangements!"

The document was pushed back by Manager Hong again.

Lin Yuan was taken aback, and wanted to say something more, but Manager Hong changed the subject first: "Besides, I didn't bother to make any effort today, I just taught him a lesson for you."

Seeing that he no longer mentioned those Zhuangzi shops, Lin Yuan also wisely stopped talking.

Based on his relationship with Xia Zheng, it is understandable to help him out. If he insists on sending these things out, he will probably feel that he is treating him as an outsider!
"Brother Hong just likes to joke. Today is thanks to you for taking action. If it were someone else, he would definitely not be able to treat the surname Zhong so badly."

"pit?"

Steward Hong licked the corners of his lips in a funny way, this girl is really as virtuous as Xia Zheng, and she really is a master who doesn't suffer.

"Do you also think that I have resorted to tricks today?"

Feeling a little embarrassed by Manager Hong's laugh, Lin Yuan smiled dryly and asked, "Could it be, no?"

Although she doesn't know how to gamble, she has seen many movies about gambling before, such as God of Gamblers or Gamblers. Some of those people rely on their extraordinary hearing, eyesight, memory, and some rely on various high-tech.

Of course, most people who gamble are masters of cheating.So in her opinion, Guanshi Hong is also such a person.

However, this time she was obviously wrong.

Steward Hong laughed and shook his head again and again: "You, it seems that Brother Xia has kept his promise and not told others about me."

Huh?Is there an inside story?

Lin Yuan's curiosity was successfully aroused.

"You should have heard it just now. In fact, I rely on my hearing. I can hear the dice in the cup. However, when I bet with Zhong Yingming just now, I actually used my careful thinking."

Be careful?
Lin Yuan carefully recalled that just now she had been paying attention to whether Zhong Yingming would fall into the trap, and she forgot to think about the doubtful aspects of this gamble.

Now hearing his mention, Lin Yuan suddenly had a flash of inspiration and figured it out.

"Ah, I see. Brother Hong deliberately asked Zhong Yingming to bet first, and then decide whether to bet big or small by his own hearing."

Steward Hong smiled and nodded, his eyes full of appreciation.

In fact, the reason is very simple. Hong Guanshi can hear the size of the sieve in the cup. If Zhong Yingming made a wrong bet, it would be easy to say, and Hong Guanshi will directly bet on the right side.But if he happens to make the right bet by mistake, Guanshi Hong will follow him in the bet.

Two people placed the same bet, how can they tell whether they won or lost?In this way, there will only be a second competition.

But in this gamble, it was obvious that even the heavens did not help Zhong Yingming, and it was wrong to ask him to make a bet, which just gave Manager Hong a chance to be right.

With a sneer, Lin Yuan despised Zhong Yingming even more, even God didn't help you, she deserved it!

"So that's how it is. I always thought that Brother Hong and that dice-throwing boy secretly played tricks!"

Lin Yuan giggled, and almost said the word "deceitful".

Steward Hong gave her an angry look, and hooked his hair with his fingers, with a high-end look and demeanor: "Sifang Gambling House is not allowed to cheat, even if I am the steward. The so-called top beam is not straight and the bottom beam is crooked, if I, as a manager, take the lead in cheating, wouldn't this ruin our own brand?"

Lin Yuan chuckled, if she hadn't heard Xia Zheng talk about Guanshi Hong earlier, she would have been taken aback by this guy's sanctimonious appearance!
Ginkgo walked in from outside the door, with a gloating smile on her face: "Miss, Master Zhong has been sent away."

Not only was he sent away, but he was also sent back by himself after being given a good lesson by those two burly men.

Lin Yuan curled her lips into a smile: "Since that's the case, then we should let Mrs. Ming prepare. Go ahead and tell Ms. Yan that it's time for her husband to play."

"Hey, yes."

Gingko responded crisply, giggled and went out to look for Yan Ruchun.

For Zhong Fu, this day was absolutely tragic.

Zhong Yingming was covered in beige, and was thrown back to the Zhong Mansion by two big men, immediately arousing unrest in the whole mansion.

Yun Shi hurried over with the support of two little maidservants, and before she could say "my son", she was frightened by the two burly men until her calves trembled.

In the past few years, there have been frequent changes in the family. Even though she was in the inner house, she was frightened by those people who came to collect debts.

"mother!"

Zhong Yingming was beaten to the point where he couldn't see any good parts of his body, his face was swollen like a pig's head, when he saw Yun Shi, he called mother weakly, but he didn't have the face to say anything more.

The two burly men looked at Zhong Yingming, who was lying on the ground pretending to be dead, and twitched the corners of their mouths. Although they made a move, they were all measured. This guy just suffered some skin trauma. How could it be serious? Can't even stand up?

How could the two of them figure out Zhong Yingming's little thoughts?He even lost his mother's only dowry, if he didn't show a little embarrassment, how could he win the old lady's pity?
In fact, he was very grateful to the Sifang Gambling House for beating him up. If he was allowed to return home in good health, he would also direct and perform a bitter trick to trick Yun's.

Now it's all right, no need to act, just come to the real thing.

"Okay, stop talking nonsense! Your master lost the Zhuangzi where you live now, as well as the four Zhuangzi and two shops under his name to our Sifang Casino. This is written evidence. Hand it in, just wait for his hands and feet to be broken!"

The burly man flicked the paper, directly onto Zhong Yingming's head shrunken like a turtle, turned around and left with a snort.

He said he was going, but in fact, the surrounding area of ​​Zhongfu had already been secretly monitored by people from their Sifang Gambling Shop. They didn't want to see such a situation where people and money were empty.

Four villages and two shops?

Yun's calf stopped trembling, and she didn't need the help of the maids, she rushed to Zhong Yingming with a brisk walk, took the note with her son's name and fingerprints in her hand, and looked at it carefully.

Ah!
After a long time, a shrill and ear-piercing scream resounded through the entire Zhong Mansion, and Yun Shi was so angry that he fell on his back and almost couldn't breathe.

In Yun's courtyard, Zhong Yingming knelt in front of Yun's bed with a guilty expression on his face, and personally stroked her chest to let her breathe, and gave her advice to comfort her while letting her breathe.

"Mother, it's all my son's fault. My son originally wanted to win more things so that he could show respect to you. Who would have thought that it was God's blessing that caused my son to fall into a big stumble."

After being taught a lesson by those two burly men, Zhong Yingming did not dare to talk about the secret tricks of the Sifang Gambling House, but he would not admit that he lost his family property because of his inferior skills, and instead attributed some of the blame to luck It's bad.

Yun's eyes were closed, and his hands were also clutching at his collar, obviously distressed.

Zhong Yingming carefully looked at his mother's face, and said again: "Mother, didn't you say that those Zhuangzi shops will give my son sooner or later? Don't be angry, don't be angry, son, although my son lost to them today, he will change tomorrow." I will definitely give you ten times and a hundred times to buy it back."

snort!
Yun snorted coldly, wishing to spit on his face: "It's up to you?"

Zhong Yingming also knew that she didn't have that ability, so she smiled embarrassedly, and hurriedly said: "Son is not good, but don't forget, there is Su Shi! At the beginning, she always said that she had no money and no dowry. But when we are at the end of our ropes, why don’t we just take Yinzi Zhuangzi out? Mother, don’t worry, this time we just take advantage of the situation to see if she has any cards in her hand.”

Yun's complexion finally improved a bit. Although he still felt sorry for his Zhuangzis, compared with Su's things, he still felt that other people's things were better.

"I can't take advantage of her, let her spit it all out at once this time!"

The anger she received from Zhong Yingming, Yun Shi was not willing to teach her son a lesson, and vented it all on her daughter-in-law.

She said viciously: "If you spit out the thing, let her go! And your son, who is as virtuous as his mother, is as ignorant as a hundred, and will cause trouble for the Zhong family sooner or later!"

Here, son...

Thinking of Xiao Fei, Zhong Yingming hesitated, after all, he was his own son.

But when he thought that the tactful and charming little girl in his room was also pregnant, he was relieved and followed his mother's words with a smile.

It's just that before the mother and son had time to discuss how to swindle more money from Su's hands, Zhong Shi had already run in like a shit.

"It's not good, master, it's not good! The young master and madam are going to prison!"

 Are you taking an exam recently?It seems that there are a lot fewer people reading the text~ Are the college entrance examination results coming out soon?
