Great Tang’s Talented Little Landlord

Shopkeeper, the king of Yongyi Casino, did not lie.

Wang clan of Taiyuan felt ashamed that day after the first day of July, when his servant Imperial Censor Wang Yuanzhong was beaten to death in front of the Taiji Hall by Li Erming. There is really no face.

The forgetfulness of these Aristocratic Family celebrities is so great that they seem to have completely forgotten, who was kneeling in front of Li Er and bowing his head to admit his mistake.

I even forgot who was above the hall and beat Wang Yuanzhong in insults.

The Aristocratic Family who had forgotten the pain after healed his scars, was not upset in his heart, so his brain became hot, and his gambling shop opened a handicap to bet Empress Zhangsun had boys and girls.

Not only the Yongyi gambling house, the Aristocratic Family headed by Five surnames Seven Clans, which controls more than 40 gambling houses, all opened this gambling market. Only Cheng Yaojin and other gambling houses of the grand men of the country did not participate in this matter.

After Li Er learned of this, he was naturally very annoyed, but inconvenient. Therefore, after having a temper with Aristocratic Family cast aside all considerations for face, he had to let them go.

Li Er’s reaction, the Aristocratic Family clan naturally understood the news from the palace. That’s why Wang Shopkeeper is so confident, he is not afraid of Li Wangyou messing around.

“No, I have no objection. I am here to bet. This bet one loses two, but a certain bet 1 gold tael. If you win the bet, your gambling house loses me 2 gold taels?” Li Wangyou Shaking his head, he was not here to breathe.

It was precisely because he noticed the pick of the gambling house by accident that he was surprised to find that the gambling house dared to bet with Empress Zhangsun. After inquiring about Wannian County government officials, and learning that Yongyi Gambling Shop was owned by Wang clan of Taiyuan, he naturally understood that it was the Aristocratic Family deliberately embarrassing Li Er.

But for Li Wangyou, the Aristocratic Family family member did so, it was simply setting a target for him.

Empress Zhangsun 5 days later will give birth to the future Crown Prince Li Zhi. This is a certainty. Since the Aristocratic Family clan wants to use this to humiliate Li Er, don’t blame him Li Wangyou for being rude. You have to take this opportunity to take a bite from the Aristocratic Family and make them feel bad.

Tens of thousands of tael of gold, even for Wang clan of Taiyuan, it is not a small number.

“Naturally.” In response to Li Wangyou’s question, Shopkeeper Wang was slightly nodded, and he was also very surprised. Is this Count of Hu really here to bet? Isn’t he the nephew of His Highness? How dare you bet on the production of Imperial Consort?

But this matter has nothing to do with their gambling house. As long as Li Wangyou dares to place a bet, their gambling house dares to take the bet.

“If someone wants to gamble with you on the Imperial Consort on what date will your Royal Consort give birth and give birth to boys and girls, would you dare to gamble with me?” Li Wangyou thought for a while and asked.

Great Tangs gambling house is not just a mere casino, but more similar to gambling companies in later generations in Europe and America. Not only do they dare to open gambling markets on various matters to attract gamblers to place bets, but they also accept special gambling contracts proposed by gamblers.

As long as they think it is profitable, the casino dares to bet against the gambler.

Li Wangyou’s words made Shopkeeper Wang hesitate.

Although his name is Shopkeeper of Yongyi Casino, he is actually just a clansman of Wang clan of Taiyuan, and he is only responsible for maintaining the operation of the casino. Like Li Wangyou’s gambling agreement, he is not qualified to agree to it.

While he was hesitating, he saw that another man dressed up in the gambling shop ran out and whispered a few words in his ear.

Wang Shopkeeper nodded, then turned his head and glanced at the gambling shop before looking towards Li Wangyou: “If Count of Hu wants to bet on the specific production time of Imperial Consort, it is naturally possible. Guess the specifics. Time and the gender of the child born by His Royal Highness Imperial Consort, bet one to pay five. I wonder if Count of Hu might be interested?”

Li Wangyou also smiled and glanced at the gate of the gambling house, Shopkeeper nodded: ” That being the case, then write down the bet. This bet, someone made a bet with you.”

“But I don’t know how much copper Count of Hu is going to bet on?”

Li Wangyou jumped off his horse, walked to a four-wheeled Carriage, and yanked away the tarp used to cover the Carriage.

“Hehe, not much, that’s all. The 40-car gold and copper coins are equivalent to 10,000 taels of gold. Wang Shopkeeper, let me count it.”

Yongyi bet Shopkeeper, the king of the shop, was speechless for a long time by this scene.

Looking at a car full of copper coins and gold emitting bright metal rays of light in the sun, he couldn’t help but swallowed saliva and said, and he hesitated to cast his eyes to the gate of the casino.

For a long while, there was no movement in the gambling house, and Shopkeeper Wang settled his mind, greeted the guys in the gambling house loudly, and all came out to count the coins.

Fortunately, when Great Tang handles so many copper coins, it does not count them one by one, but directly weighs them with a big scale. Otherwise, there are more than 10,000 coins and I dont know what to count. Time to go.

Even so, more than a dozen guys in the gambling house counted almost an hour before they cleared the 40 cars of copper and gold and moved them into the gambling house.

Wang Shopkeeper invited the accountant of the gambling shop and asked him to write a bet ticket for Li Wangyou.

“Count of Hu, how do you plan to place a bet on this ten thousand tael of gold?”

“A bet on Imperial Consort, July 21st, the second year of Zhenguan Produce, give birth to a Prince.” Li Wangyou did not hesitate to say his bet.

Wang Shopkeeper nodded, ask the bookkeeper to write down the vouchers, indicate the content and odds of the gambling agreement of both parties, and use the special anti-counterfeiting seal of the gambling shop, and the gambling agreement between the two parties is officially established.

Li Wangyou took the bet, looked it over carefully, and carefully collected it after confirming that it was correct.

He bet 10,000 tael of gold. According to the gambling house, he bet one to pay five, which is 50,000 taels of gold. Even if Li Wangyou is not short of money now, such a large sum of gold is worthy of careful treatment.

“hehe, Shopkeeper Wang, gold is ready in five days. Someone wants to win a bet, but he wants to collect the money.”

Wang Shopkeeper is sneaked in his heart, but his face is The smile remains the same: “This is natural. As long as Count of Hu wins the bet, our gambling house will pay in full. There is no difference. Our Yongyi gambling house, in Chang’an City, is a golden sign.”

Li Wangyou didn’t say much, turned around and left. He had to rush to Cheng Yaojin’s mansion.

Seeing Li Wangyou’s departure, the polite King Shopkeeper coldly snorted, turned around and entered the casino.

“Patriarch, the matter has been done. The 10,000 tael of gold surnamed Li has been put in the treasury, and the voucher has been issued to him. Hehe, I am crazy looking at the surname Li , I actually took 10,000 tael of gold to bet with us. There is really nowhere to spend more money.” Shopkeeper Wang said as he handed a copy of the betting agreement.

Behind the gate of Yongyi Gambling House, standing a middle-aged man, it is Wang clan of Taiyuan Patriarch, Wang Renyou.

He happened to come to the gambling shop today to check the accounts. He heard that the next person came to report that Count of Hu Li Wangyou had come to the gambling shop and he wanted to place a bet with the gambling shop. When Wang Renyou was curious, he hid behind the gate of the gambling shop to eavesdrop, and wanted to see what Li Wangyou wanted to do.

When Li Wangyou proposed not only to bet whether Empress Zhangsun was born to a male or a female, but also to bet on a specific date of birth, Wang Renyou couldn’t help but sneer.

This kind of thing, Daoist Immortal is hard to tell, some people dare to bet, Wang Renyou dare to accept it. Since Li Wangyou wants to give gold, there is no reason to refuse.

While Shopkeeper Wang was hesitant, Wang Renyou immediately asked people around him to pass a message to him, asking him to take Li Wangyou’s bet, and personally call the shots, setting the odds to bet one to pay five.

Wang Renyou took the copy of the pledge slip, read it, and instructed it: “Let people go to Chang’an City to spread the word about the little bastard surnamed Li against the casino. Promote it out.”

Wang Shopkeeper didnt know why: “Patriarch, why is this? Its not in accordance with the rules of our gambling house.”

As a gambling house, it is natural to keep customers secret This is also the reputation of the casino.

Wang Renyou sneered: “hmph, I just let His Highness also see how his good nephew made a bet with the Imperial Consort. Let the people of Chang’an City take a look. This is Li How is the little bastard ruined!”

Wang Shopkeeper followed with a gloomy smile, as if they were already in their hands.

At this time, outside the door of Duke of Lu Mansion, Li Wangyou is struggling…
