Nightmare Apostle

Chapter 388 The Boss Lady

Things also developed according to what Cheng Cha said. This time Cheng Cha bet on small, and the specific number was 3. When the sieve cup was opened, it was indeed small, but the number was 2. The middle-aged man with a mustache screamed, He shouted: "Ping!"

The cloth tiger that had been placed on the gambling table was taken away. Soon, a chubby young man came from behind, dressed like a waiter here. He respectfully handed over a bill with both hands. Cheng Cha took the bill with something similar to that of a child. A wooden top is drawn using simple brushwork.

In the gambling house's conversion system, one cloth tiger is exchanged for two wooden tops. According to the rule of losing half in a draw, this bill is reasonable.

After Cheng Cha confirmed that it was correct, he left the gambling house with the bill and rushed to the bank. On the way, he encountered a resentful baby disguised as a town citizen blocking his way. He was easily dismissed by everyone.

Arriving in front of the bank, the door was now open, people were coming in and out, and the out-of-business sign was also taken off.

But after seeing the sign in front of the door, Sui Chengguo couldn't help but frown, "A rattle is exchanged for 10 copper plates, a copper plate is exchanged for 10 gold ingots, and a gold ingot is exchanged for 100 silver ingots."

Cheng Cha was not surprised and explained to everyone that the money bank is not like a gambling house, the exchange price of the bank is not fixed, and the value of so-called gold and silver in the town is far less than that of toys.

The steward in the bank was a fat man with dark skin. He grinned, revealing a mouth full of black and yellow rotten teeth. He looked at Cheng Cha and the others with a flattering look on his face, "Guests, what do you need?"

"Exchange the money." Cheng Cha didn't waste any time and directly slapped the bill on the table, "Exchange it all into gold ingots for me."

Picking up the bill, the steward almost held it to his face. After a moment, he took the abacus and pulled it up in a decent manner.

Yang Xiao only glanced at it and realized that this person didn't know how to use an abacus at all. He was just pulling and pulling randomly, making a popping sound.

"A wooden top is worth 5 rattles, 5 rattles are worth 50 copper plates, and 50 copper plates are worth 500 ingots of gold." The fat steward said to himself, then turned to look behind him and shouted: "Bring up 500 ingots of gold!"

After a while, two guys came up carrying a wooden box. The wooden box was not big. After opening the lid, it was densely packed with gold ingots. Each one was very small, about the same size as those seen at jugglers. Sui Chengguo picked one up and weighed it, and found out that a small gold ingot was equivalent to about 3 taels of gold in today's market, which is equivalent to 3 taels of gold per gold ingot.

After the money was cleared, Cheng Cha and the others carried a box of gold and swaggered through the market without even closing the lid of the box. However, the people in the town turned a blind eye to the gold and had no intention of looking at Buhu.

Finally, we came to the last stop, the cloth shop. The cloth shop also opened its doors to welcome customers. Like the bank, the words on the sign in front of the door also changed: honest management, no deception, small business, one piece of gold for every piece of clothing. .

Yang Xiao had previously wondered why Cheng Cha exchanged gold for gold instead of silver. It turned out to be the case. It seemed that the rules of this cloth shop were also changed one at a time.

Cheng Cha once explained that no matter how these rules are changed, everything in the town is fixed. There are only so many clothes in the cloth store, only 494 pieces. It was not enough before and it is not enough now. This is a loophole.

And they now have 500 gold ingots, and each piece of clothing has 1 gold ingot, which is enough for them to buy all the clothes in the cloth store.

Copy the way Cheng Cha's team got out of trouble last time.

"Lady boss, I want 500 pieces of clothes!" Cheng Cha walked in with confidence. This town was his deepest dream. He desperately wanted to escape from here, and now, everything was finally coming to an end.

At the counter of the cloth shop, a voluptuous woman with her back to them was hanging clothes. But as the woman turned around, the smile on Cheng Cha's face suddenly froze. After a moment, he felt a sense of fear that he had never felt before. Crawling all over the body.

The woman looked ordinary, with a little beauty mark hanging on her lip. There was nothing weird about her, but Cheng Cha's behavior was like seeing a ghost.

Tong Han pinched Cheng Cha's thigh hard from behind, which made Cheng Cha wake up, but even so, his tone of voice was weak, "I...I want 500 pieces of clothes, right now, Jin The ingot is here."

The woman was obviously the boss here. She twisted her waist and walked out of the counter. She checked the gold ingots in the box one by one. Every 99 gold ingots were placed in a pile. Soon, there were 5 small gold mountains piled up. She looked at the gold ingots in the box. The woman was in trouble for the remaining 5 gold ingots.

With her eyes chattering, the woman thought of her words: "Guests, there are only a few of you, how can you wear so many clothes? How about this? I'll give you 494 pieces. It's not that we don't have any in stock in the store." Yes, I just don’t want you to waste your money.”

This sentence leaked out instantly, and Yang Xiao understood that this boss lady had a higher IQ than the average resentful baby, but it was also limited.

To be precise, the guys who played the important roles of entertainers, gambling house owners, bank managers, and cloth store proprietresses all had IQs far above the average of the resentful infants.

"No, we need 500 pieces of clothing, no less." Cheng Cha seemed to have come to his senses, and his tone became firm.

"Yes, not a single thing is missing!" Mi Shu also followed. This was discussed early in the morning. Everyone should help build momentum and stir up the flames so that the boss's wife and the bank manager can fight.

But just when everyone thought they were done, the landlady nodded with a grimace, "In that case, well, let's take out all our goods from behind!"

Soon, several waiters came out from behind, each holding a large bundle of clothes. Yang Xiao and others checked by themselves, counting the tops and pants as one piece, and even the jacket as one piece, but even if they counted all of them, it was not enough. In the end, there were only 494 pieces. At this moment, everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Boss lady, this is not enough." Tong Han threw away the clothes in his hand and stood up to ask.

"Yes, there are still 6 pieces missing?" Mi Shu also followed suit.

"Why don't you call the manager of the bank to ask what's going on?" Yang Xiao was afraid that the matter would not get out of hand, and

he fanned the flames on the side.

Unexpectedly, the boss lady suddenly smiled, her eyes curved, the kind of smile that shows a successful evil plan. Yang Xiao's heart skipped a beat, and he realized that something was wrong. It was the first time he saw such an expression on the face of someone in the town.

"Not enough, how could it be possible? I'll give you the last 6 pieces of clothing right now." The proprietress grinned, untied her belt in front of everyone, took off her woolen waistcoat, threw it into the pile of clothes, and said in a sweet voice: "This is the first piece."

This scene stunned everyone. They had never thought that such a thing would happen, and Cheng Cha did not remind them.

But looking at Cheng Cha's appearance, he certainly didn't expect it.

The woolen waistcoat was the first piece, followed by the top, then the thin cloth inside, the pants, and finally even the pink bellyband and the white cloth underneath were taken off. At this moment, the woman was almost naked, but she was still smiling: "Including these 6 pieces, a total of 500 pieces, we have settled the money and goods."

Yang Xiao could no longer hear the woman's words. His eyes were fixed on the position slightly below the woman's waist. This was naturally not the time to think about it. He just saw a rose, a blooming black rose tattooed on the woman's waist.

He understood why Cheng Cha was stunned for a long time after seeing the woman, because he knew this woman, and there was a high probability that this woman was his teammate in the last mission.

After the money and goods were settled, they were driven out of the cloth shop. From Cheng Cha's mouth, everyone understood the ins and outs of the matter. Yang Xiao's guess was correct. This woman was Cheng Cha's teammate in the last mission, and she was also a core member. The method of buying out the cloth shop was thought up by the woman, but there was a little accident when it was finally implemented, and the woman died in the cloth shop.

"That is to say, this town can constantly patch up loopholes, and we can no longer leave here by the previous method." Yang Xiao analyzed, this is an obvious thing.

"Then what should we do next?" Mi Shu felt a burst of anxiety when she thought of facing those terrifying resentful infants again. The experience of biting off the snake's head last time was enough for her to reminisce for a lifetime.

Everyone walked and thought all the way, trying to delay the time to reach the old ginseng leader's house. From time to time, someone proposed a method, but they were all rejected by Cheng Cha one by one. Many of the methods they thought of were also thought of by the previous team, but they all failed after trying.

Until Sui Chengguo spoke, "Maybe we can change our thinking. We don't have to start from the connection between the three stores. We can look for the flaws of one of them separately."

"Go on." Cheng Cha turned his head and looked at him.

After a pause, Sui Chengguo organized his words, "Think about it, our previous idea was to get the cloth tiger every time, because it is the most valuable thing in the town, and we can use it to exchange for more money, and then use the money to buy more clothes, but this is a misunderstanding. My opinion is to take the rattle, which is the lowest value. There is no lower-level toy than it in the gambling house. If we use the rattle to gamble and the bet ends in a tie, what will be the result?"

"According to the rule of losing half in a tie, they will return us the equivalent of half a rattle, but the only thing lower than the rattle in the town is one of the gold, silver and copper coins, but the gambling house has rules and does not allow these to appear.

"This is a loophole! "Mi Shu's eyes lit up when she heard this, which gave her hope.

"Yes, but this method is unstable. After all, as long as we want, the probability of getting the cloth tiger is 100%, but the probability of getting the rattle is only 50%, which requires a certain amount of luck." Sui Chengguo said frankly.

In other words, if they are unlucky, they may not get the rattle for several times in a row. This is an objective fact. The most important thing is that none of them can say how many times they can persist and how many reincarnations they can survive.

"There is no other way, so let's take a gamble." Cheng Cha stepped forward, pushed open the half-closed door, and the mission continued.
