……
Get rich and gamble.
One of the three largest gold-selling caves in Changningwei.
It is said that at the beginning of Changningwei’s land reclamation, the Fortune Gambling House had already stood on this land.
After some of the pioneers who made a fortune, they often spent large sums of money in gambling houses. Naturally, most of the results were tragic.
The boss behind the fortune gambling house is very secretive. Some say it is the Celestial Being Huangfu family, some say it is the Celestial Being Lei family, and some say it is the first-generation city lord who is secretly controlling the situation.
But no one admitted it.
After all, relying on gambling houses to make money is a stain on a high-ranking family.
In short, the background of this fortune gambling house is unpredictable. So far, no one can refuse to pay back the money they owe to Facai Casino.
At the entrance of the gambling house, Wang Zongwei’s carriage slowly stopped.
This is a three-story attic that occupies a considerable area. It is a splendid place with carved beams and painted buildings. The towering red lacquered archway at the entrance is also very grand. At first glance, it looks more like a restaurant than a gambling house.
Only the cloth hanging under the archway, embroidered with the word “gambling” and swaying slightly in the cool breeze of early autumn, highlights its identity as a gambling house.
At the entrance of the gambling house, several strong men wearing the gambling house’s standard uniforms stood around the threshold with their hands behind their backs. They were the Xuanwu monks specially raised in the gambling house to watch the action and intimidate the young Xuanwu monks. His cultivation level also looks like he is at the fifth or sixth level of the Qi Refining Stage, so he is not weak at all.
Before Wang Zongwei got off the carriage, a middle-aged man came out of the gambling house with a smile on his face.
Behind him, there were several followers who were not weak in strength.
The middle-aged man has a mustache and looks good-natured. He is the second shopkeeper of the Fortune Casino, Ding Youde.
Just listening to his name and looking at his appearance, it seems that he is really a highly respected person, but only those who are familiar with him, or those who have suffered losses, know how much Ding Youde can eat people without spitting out their bones.
“Master Zongwei.” Ding Youde greeted him with a smile and personally helped Wang Zongwei out of the carriage. “You haven’t been here for seven or eight days. Could it be that you dislike my brother’s poor hospitality?”
“Where, where.”
At this time, Wang Zongwei was already in his early thirties, with a small beard, and looked like a mature man with a successful career.
He smiled and said: “I just won too much in the past. I’m afraid, brother, you will dislike me and won’t welcome me.”
Ding Youde was stunned, then laughed loudly and said: “Young Master Zong Wei is really good at joking. We run a gambling house, and winning or losing depends entirely on luck. If any distinguished customer wins two dollars, we will not welcome him. The truth?”
“Young Master Zong Wei has been in such great momentum recently and has been blessed with great luck. It is natural for him to win money. Even if you win our gambling shop until it goes bankrupt, it is still your ability.”
“It’s just a joke, brother Youde, don’t take it to heart.” Wang Zongwei smiled calmly, and then entered the Fortune Gambling House with Ding Youde.
The Fortune Gambling House is still so lively. In the hall, the gambling tables are filled with male and female gamblers.
No matter when, there is always no shortage of gamblers, and there are always people who are addicted to the excitement of getting something for nothing.
“Master Zongwei, do you want to warm up your hands in the hall first, or let Youde arrange a private room for you?” Ding Youde asked enthusiastically.
“Human luck is limited, how can it be used in such a small place?” Wang Zongwei glanced at the hall with his hands behind his back, showing a lack of interest.
The gambling in the hall is relatively small, and the gambling settlements at many tables are calculated in large coppers. Even for those more advanced tables, the winnings and losses in a day can only be dozens of gold at most.
At that time, he, Shiro, was gambling outside.
“That’s true.” Ding Youde flattered with a smile, “What is the identity of Master Zongwei? How can he play with these mud-legged people.”
After that, he led Wang Zongwei directly to the private room on the second floor.
The decoration on the second floor is much more exquisite than that on the first floor. Not only are the floors covered with thick carpets, the small tables in the corridor are all made of golden nanmu, and exquisite calligraphy and paintings are hung on the walls. , much higher quality than the first floor.
On both sides of the corridor are rows of private rooms.
These private rooms are obviously soundproofed. Standing in the corridor, you can only vaguely hear waves of vague shouts and laughter coming from inside the door, but the specific voices cannot be heard clearly.
The levels of private rooms are also different. There are “ren”-sized private rooms with a starting price of 100 gold, and there are also “tian”-sized private rooms with a starting price of 1,000 gold to meet the needs of customers of different levels.
For the past two or three months, Wang Zongwei has been playing in the “Ren” private room, and he has won one or two thousand gold one after another.
“This time I am playing in the private room with the name ‘Di’.” Wang Zongwei said, “I have won a lot of money from your gambling house before. If you are not lucky today, you will lose it all.”
Having said that, there was a hint of greed in his eyes.
Obviously, he is very confident in his recent luck.
“Young Master Zong Wei is indeed heroic.”
Ding Youde wanted him to bet bigger, so naturally he and his followers started praising him.
While they were talking, the group of people walked into the private room named “地”.
Compared with the corridor, the decoration in the private room is more luxurious. Not only the carpet is more complex and exquisite, but the antique calligraphy and painting used for the decoration are also higher-grade. To decorate this private room, the antique calligraphy and paintings alone would probably cost no less than one or two thousand gold.
There was a red copper incense burner placed on a high table against the wall, burning incense. The smoke curled up in the private room, exuding a mysterious and alluring smell, which made people’s adrenaline surge.
Every gambler in the “Di” box is accompanied by a beautiful maid. Even the croupiers at the gaming table are carefully trained beauties. It is pleasing to the eye.
It is still early today, and there is no one else in the room except the maid and dealer. This is no wonder. Winning or losing in a well-known room can easily cost hundreds or even thousands of gold. It is not every day that high-profile guests visit.
Wang Zongwei’s eyes brightened, and he even narrowed his eyes when looking at the beautiful maid and dealer, looking like they were possessed by lust.
“Young Master Zongwei, are you still satisfied?”
In Ding Youde’s smiling eyes, a trace of contempt inadvertently flashed across his face.
“Okay! Redeem me five hundred dry gold chips first.”
Wang Zongwei took out a pile of gold tickets with great interest.
Two beautiful maids helped him to the gambling table, and thoughtfully changed his chips and put on a pot of spiritual tea.
Wang Zongwei held the chips in hand and immediately joined the gambling game with gleaming eyes.
“You two stay with Master Zongwei.” After Ding Youde gave instructions, he left with a smile, “I won’t disturb Master Zongwei from winning money.”
He also knows that once a gambler gets into the mood, he doesn’t like to be disturbed by people around him.
As expected, Wang Zongwei waved his hand without even raising his eyelids.
After leaving the private room, Ding Youde waved his hand to guard the door and went straight to the third floor.
Third floor.
In a heavily guarded room, a middle-aged man in well-dressed clothes, who looked only forty or fifty years old, was lying on a comfortable Taishi chair, smoking leaf cigarettes, puffing away from time to time.
His face was a little sallow, and he looked as if his body had been hollowed out.
Beside him were two enchanting and beautiful women, serving him submissively.
“Shopkeeper Huang Da.” Ding Youde reported cautiously, “That Wang Zongwei came to the gambling house again. Obviously we let him taste the sweetness by letting him taste the sweetness some time ago. However, this time he entered the ‘Di’ brand Private room, I must want to win a big one. Can you please tell me how to deal with it, shopkeeper Huang Da?”
Shopkeeper Huang’s eyes were half-closed and he said nonchalantly: “It’s almost time. Since he’s here, let’s close the Internet cafe.”
“Yes, big shopkeeper.”
Ding Youde responded, with a trace of cruelty flashing in his eyes.
Wang Zongwei, Wang Zongwei, you really think you are lucky.
Ding Youde sneered secretly.
I have been flattering you for nearly three months. It’s time for you to pay back your capital and profits.
At the same time.
In the ground floor private room, Wang Zongwei was very lucky and won hundreds of gold chips in a short time.
The two beautiful maids smiled brightly and complimented each other: “Young Master Zong Wei is so lucky! It seems like there will be another killing spree today.”
“Hahaha~ I have indeed had good luck recently.” Wang Zongwei laughed heartily and rewarded the two maids with a dry gold chip each.
“Thank you, Master Zongwei!” The maids’ eyebrows became more charming, and their bodies were almost pressed against his body.
As if to confirm Wang Zongwei’s words, within a few moments, he won more than a hundred gold.
Under the maid’s flattery one after another, he felt as if he were a fairy. He quickly accepted the maid’s proposal and increased his betting efforts while he was lucky.
But in the blink of an eye, without paying much attention, all the more than two hundred gold chips won were lost.
Wang Zongwei seemed a little anxious.
After losing several games in a row, he increased his betting intensity again, hoping to win back the lost chips.
But the more this happens, the more it seems to be counterproductive.
After a stick of incense, he filled in all the 500 chips he had exchanged.
“Master Zongwei is having a bad day today.” A maid advised, “Why don’t we just let it go and come back next time.”
“It was just a temporary defeat.” Another maid immediately persuaded her sweetly, “Young Master Zong Wei is so lucky that he will win back soon.”
“Exchange another thousand gold chips!”
Wang Zongwei’s breathing was a little rapid. He had lost five hundred gold today, and he seemed a little unwilling to accept it.
The two maids looked at Wang Zongwei with admiration: “Young Master Zongwei is really heroic, even the legitimate sons of the eighth and ninth grade families don’t have such courage.”
After taking a thousand gold chips, Wang Zongwei seemed to be more cautious and calculated a lot when placing bets. Gradually, he won more.
But as the two maids increased the intensity of the ecstasy soup, Wang Zongwei became intoxicated again and began to gamble wildly.
In the situation of losing more and winning less, a mere thousand gold did not last long and was quickly lost.
“Take another two thousand gold chips.” Wang Zongwei slammed the table, as if he was a little angry.
Half an hour later.
“Take another two thousand gold!” His deep roar sounded again.
Like this, over and over again, his eyes were already scarlet, his brocade robe was torn open, his chest was exposed, his hair was a little messy, and he was covered in sweat.
He took a deep sip of the spirit tea and said angrily: “Give me another two thousand!”
But this time, the two obedient maids did not pay any attention to him, but stepped aside and bent down.
“You…”
Wang Zongwei turned around angrily and cursed.
However, before he could finish his words, he stopped abruptly.
Just because in this room named “地”, Ding Youde and a group of followers were standing behind him at some point.
His smile was a little gloomy: “Young Master Zongwei, it’s almost done today. Why don’t we come back another day to play.”
Wang Zongwei suddenly became excited, as if he sensed something was wrong in the atmosphere, and immediately regained some sense: “Brother Youde is right, I have bad luck today and it is not appropriate to continue playing. I will leave first.”
As he spoke, Wang Zongwei lowered his head and walked out of the room.
“Wait a minute.”
Ding Youde clasped his hands behind his back and sneered.
After the words fell, several strong men immediately blocked the door and blocked Wang Zongwei in the private room named “Di”.
“Brother Youde, what do you mean?” Wang Zongwei’s face turned pale.
“Young Master Zongwei, our gambling house has gambling house rules,” Ding Youde said coldly with a smile, “Young master, please pay off the money you owe before leaving.”
“Ow money? How much do I owe?” Wang Zongwei’s face became more and more ugly, and he felt bad.
Ding Youde slowly took out a stack of signatures: “Master Zongwei exchanged a total of 8,600 dry gold today, of which 500 dry gold has been paid, leaving 8,100 dry gold. Could you please Mr. Zongwei to settle the bill?”
“More than eight thousand dry gold?!”
Wang Zongwei’s expression was shocked, angry, and unbelievable.
He only played for less than two hours from beginning to end, how could he lose so much?
“Master Zongwei might as well take a good look at it.” Ding Youde sneered, “Every signature here is written in black and white. If you don’t recognize it, I will ask the brothers to ‘help’ you reminisce.”
Wang Zongwei hurriedly went up and checked the signatures.
Sure enough, every picture is real.
He really owed so much without realizing it.
He was sweating profusely and said to Ding Youde: “Brother Youde, these lists are all correct. But I left in a hurry this time and didn’t bring so much money, so why not…”
Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Ding Youde with a wave of his hand.
He smiled gloomily: “It doesn’t matter, it doesn’t matter. As long as Master Zongwei signs, I will take my brothers to the Ping’an Wang Family and ask Wang Shouzhe for the money.”
“Ask my fourth uncle for a debt?!” Wang Zongwei said with trembling fear and anger, “Brother Youde, this is too much! Aren’t you forcing me to death? Don’t worry, this sum I will pay back the money as soon as possible.”
“Bah!” Ding Youde sneered, “With your support from Wang Zongwei, how long can it take to pay back this money? It seems that Master Zongwei hasn’t figured out the situation yet. Someone, let the master sober up. !”
“Brother Youde! Don’t be impulsive! Ahhh~~~~~”
A series of screams suddenly sounded in the private room.
……
Twilight is gradually falling.
Outside the Changning Acropolis, there is a low-key yet luxurious manor.
This manor is in the name of an unknown wealthy man from afar, but it is actually the secret palace of Huangfu Jinhuan, the head of the Tianren Huangfu clan, where many secret conversations took place.
It can be said that this manor, which looks ordinary on the outside, often influences some changes in the layout of Changning Guard.
Twilight is getting darker in the sky, but it is still very bright in the manor.
Exquisite palace lanterns are hung under all the corridors, illuminating parts of the courtyard as if it were daytime, with lush green trees and red flowers.
At this moment, in the meeting hall deep in the manor, three people were sitting together having a secret conversation.
These three people, two men and one woman, are all dressed in brocade clothes and embroidered robes, and they look extraordinary.
There are curls of incense rising from the red copper incense burner in the corner, like fairy mist. Coupled with the exquisite and gorgeous furniture, it makes the room look like a fairy palace and jade pavilion, and also makes the three people on it look astonishing. It seemed like there was an extra touch of fairy spirit.
According to logic, Huangfu Jinhuan is the real owner of this manor, but at this moment, sitting on the main seat is a woman of about thirty, with outstanding grace, enchanting and charming.
She was born with a pair of romantic and affectionate peach blossom eyes, and even her posture when sitting idle was lazy, but her demeanor was like that of a fairy concubine, with a condescending and detached nobility, as if everyone else It is natural to listen to her.
The luxurious spiritual silk robe, the exquisite and complicated embroidery, and the huge sea spirit beads inlaid on the embroidered shoes all highlight her extraordinary status.
Behind her, standing on one left and one on the right, were two old men who looked unremarkable.
They look simple and unpretentious, with restrained aura, but only true masters can feel the terrifying power contained in their bodies.
Yes, these two old men are both Lingtai realm monks.
For some eighth- and ninth-grade Xuanwu families, every Lingtai monk is the ancestor of the family, has a respected status, and is the backbone of the family.
But they stood behind the woman, with their heads lowered, as if they were two loyal old servants.
This makes the woman’s background even more extraordinary.
She just leaned on the main seat casually, as if she should be doing so.
But the famous Huangfu Jinhuan sat on the second seat, with a somewhat flattering expression on his originally majestic face.
As for the other middle-aged man, he was Huangfu Deyun, the patriarch of the former Ma Huangfu clan.
The patriarch of the eighth-grade family is considered to be the most important figure in the entire Changning Guard. But here, he actually accompanied the last one.
In fact, it would be nice to have a seat.
Didn’t you see that the two Lingtai realm monks behind the woman could only stand like old servants?
Therefore, Huangfu Deyun did not sit down, but only half of his buttocks rested on the chair, and his entire upper body leaned forward, looking extremely submissive.
Yes, this enchanting, noble and extraordinary woman is none other than Mrs. Ji!
Mrs. Ji’s enchanting face was somewhat displeased: “Master Deyun, your previous promise was that you would defeat your opponents as soon as possible and completely control the raw silk industry. You also promised that in the next twenty years, you will establish the raw silk production base. Expanding to the entire Changning Guard and surrounding several guards, it has become one of our Ji’s supply bases.”
“But now, Ningxu, the head of a small eighth-grade family, is fighting so hard. Do you need to give me an explanation?”
Faced with Mrs. Ji’s pressure, Huangfu Deyun was a little frightened. He wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, “Mrs. Ji, I wonder if Mrs. Xu of Changning had her forehead pinched by something? She is acting like crazy like us. They are competing for raw silk raw materials, but don’t worry, they will soon be unable to hold on.”
“Can’t hold on? Mrs. Ji sneered and said, “How did I hear that the Xu family in Changning was supported by the Ping’an Wang family. ”
“Although the Ping’an Wang family is only an eighth-grade family, I heard that they manage the land under their jurisdiction very well and have abundant financial resources.”
Huangfu Deyun was speechless and looked at Huangfu Jinhuan, as if asking for help.
“Ahem!” Huangfu Jinhuan said with a straight face, “Mrs. Ji, don’t worry, the Ping An Wang family only secretly supported the Changning Xu family’s funds because of their in-law relationship. As long as we increase our efforts to fight against it, Sooner or later, the Xu family in Changning will be unable to hold on any longer, and we promise not to delay the interests of the Ji family in Longzuo.
“Hmph! I hope so.” Mrs. Ji’s face softened slightly, “Two heads of the Huangfu family, we, the Ji family, trust that you have absolute control over Changning Guard, so we chose you as a partner. If you really can’t Solve it, haha, don’t blame us for being ruthless when the time comes.”
After that, Mrs. Ji stood up and walked away.
The two old servants in the Lingtai Realm followed step by step without even raising their eyes.
Huangfu Jinhuan and Huangfu Deyun stood up and said to each other: “Mrs. Ji, don’t worry. We will solve this problem as soon as possible.”
Mrs. Ji didn’t even look back, and gradually moved away, disappearing from the sight of the two of them.
Wait until the others leave.
Huangfu De Yuncai looked a little ugly and said: “Uncle Jinhuan clan, if the Ping An Wang family is determined to support the Changning Xu family, what should we do?”
“Hmph.” Huangfu Jinhuan’s eyes were uncertain and he sneered, “Having the opportunity to cooperate with Ji’s family and become one of their main supply bases for silk is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for our Huangfu family. No matter who stands in the way In front of us, I, Huangfu Jinhuan, will not let him go.”
The Changning Huangfu family is a family that can carry out the normal transition between heaven and man.
There is no doubt about it.
In order to satisfy the alternation between heaven and man, most resources will be given priority to heaven and man seeds.
Although Huangfu Jinhuan is the patriarch, he is not the next seed of heaven. Unless more resources are overflowed and the family moves to the sixth level after satisfying the transition between gods and humans, he will be able to obtain the resources to cultivate the realm of gods and humans.
The Ji family of Longzuo.
It is an old sixth-grade family famous throughout Longzuo County.
The background of this family is unfathomable. There are many heavenly beings in the family, and there are even more Lingtai realms. They are only half a step away from the fifth-grade Zi Mansion.
This time they cooperate with others to enter and seize the silk industry, which is obviously to promote the fifth-rank family.
As long as we hold Ji’s thigh firmly, we can build Changningwei and the surrounding areas into a raw silk base.
The Huangfu family will be qualified to be promoted to the sixth level, and Huangfu Jinhuan will also have the capital to attack the heaven and human realm.
As soon as he thought of this, Huangfu Jinhuan’s eyes flashed with passion. As long as he has enough resources, he will have a chance to reach the human realm, even if the chance is only 20 to 30%.
“Uncle Jinhuan Clan.” Huangfu Deyun frowned and said, “I think about this matter carefully, and I always feel that it is a bit strange. We only dared to increase the purchasing capital because of Ji’s advanced technology. Now the competition has reached this point Even with Ji’s advanced technology, we will still lose a lot this time.”
“But why are the Ping’an Wang family and the Changning Xu family so courageous? Even we have suffered a lot, don’t they have to lose everything?”
“But with such losses, why are they still clinging to us and competing with us for raw silk resources?”
Huangfu Jinhuan said in a deep voice: “This matter is indeed a bit strange. At first, I thought that the Xu family in Changning was just struggling to death, but now I’m afraid things are not simple. Fortunately, I have a plan, and it should be settled. It’s time to go online.”
While the two were talking.
Huangfu Jinhuan’s personal bodyguard came in to report and whispered a few words in his ear.
Huangfu Jinhuan looked serious and said, “Go and invite the people from Shopkeeper Huang to come in.”
Not more than a moment.
A young and capable young man came in and paid homage to Huangfu Jinhuan. He took out a thick secret letter and handed it over, and said respectfully: “Our shopkeeper said it, fortunately he has lived up to his orders.”
“Okay, okay.” Huangfu Jinhuan stroked his beard and smiled, “I want to see what the Ping’an Wang family and the Changning Xu family are doing secretly?”
He took the thick secret letter and opened it. The smile on his face gradually solidified and gradually became more gloomy!
“Bang!”
A fine rosewood table was shattered into pieces in his hands.
“Okay, okay, okay!”
“Xu, Wang, you are seeking your own death!”
