    "Brother Qin, are you really planning to buy Yan Tower?" On the way back, Ding Lei couldn't help but ask Qin Yongdao.  It turns out that when Madam Rong was talking to Qin Yong, he was basically silent.  However, this does not mean that he has no ideas in his heart.  "If Brother Qin really becomes the big boss of Yanlou, what will Miss Hong do?" That's right, even Ding Lei actually understands the meaning of Lady Rong's words.  That is, she wants to give Yan Tower to Qin Yong, and all she wants is for Qin Yong to help her write a few scenes.  However, if this happens, wouldn¡¯t it put the Red Lady in a very embarrassing situation again?  You should know that although Ding Lei helped Lady Rong make an appointment with Qin Yong before, in fact, in his heart he was more inclined to support Lady Rong.  If Qin Yong can write a good show for Lady Rong, then Ding Lei will actually be happy to see it happen.  Because this means that he has another place where he can usually go in Bianliang City.  However, if Qin Yong was completely bound to Yan Tower by Madam Rong, then Ding Lei would not be willing to do so.  Because that means Qin Yong will no longer write plays for the Red Lady.  But, how can this be done?  Because if Lady Hong had not had the dramas Qin Yong wrote for her, it is almost certain that she would have been suppressed by Lady Rong again.  "Oh, it's hard to say this yet. Let's talk about it later." Facing Ding Lei's inquiry, Qin Yong couldn't help but shook his head and said.  ¡°If you say that Madam Rong¡¯s decision today is completely useless, that is definitely wrong.  Because Qin Yong originally planned to reject her, but in the end, he didn't have the nerve to say it.  However, if you say that her plan was completely successful, that is not entirely correct.  Because Qin Yong did not agree to her request until the end. All he said at that time was to go back and think about it first.  Therefore, Lady Rong had no choice but to send him out of the gate of Yanlou very enthusiastically.  "60% of Yanlou's shares! It's only sold for one thousand taels. It's really a great value!" In fact, the reason why Qin Yong wanted to go back and think about it was because he had no choice but to do so.  because.  He understood Lady Rong's purpose very well. As long as he agreed to receive six-tenths of the shares of Yanlou, he would definitely write plays for Lady Rong in the future. However, what plays could he write for Lady Rong?  "The Legend of White Snake"?  "The Romance of the West Chamber"?  "Dream of Red Mansions"?  These are actually good choices, but he can't completely change his original position just because of this.  You know, his current relationship with the Matchmaker is quite good.  If you change your position easily, wouldn't it seem too snobbish?  What's more, when he was about to enter the Gongyuan to take the major examination that day, the red lady was waiting in front of the Gongyuan.  I gave him a box of nice snacks.  ¡° Moreover, this box of snacks actually played a very unexpected role in the end.  That is, after his box of snacks produced by "Qin's Dessert House" was collected by those officials.  He relied on the box of snacks sent by the red lady and the meals in the bamboo tubes to survive those two days and one night.  so.  Under both circumstances and circumstances, it was impossible for him to "change sides" easily and defect to Lady Rong's side.  "Oh, that's good. Well, Brother Qin, I still have some things at home. Can I ask the driver to take me home first, and then send Brother Qin back?" Hearing what Qin Yong said, Ding Lei felt temporarily relieved.  In one breath, he cupped his fists and said to Qin Yong.  "Oh?" After hearing what Ding Lei said, Qin Yong became curious.  This coachman was indeed brought here by Ding Lei, so there was nothing wrong with him asking the coachman to take him back first.  However, this matter seems a bit strange to me.  Because, since Qin Yong is also on this carriage, according to common sense, shouldn't Ding Lei send him home first?  In fact, his Qin Mansion is closer than Ding Mansion.  However, Ding Lei now insisted on asking the driver to take him home first.  This actually means that there should be some urgent matters at home, which is why Ding Lei made such a rude request.  "Brother Ding, what happened in the house recently?" Ding Lei's behavior was actually a sign of it as early as this morning when he went to Qin Mansion to find Qin Yong.  Because Bang Yong at that time had already discovered that Ding Lei was in a bad mood.Doesn¡¯t anyone with a frown on his face have something on his mind?  However, Ding Lei didn't say anything at that time. He was anxious to see Madam Rong, so he didn't ask any more questions.  But, it¡¯s different now.  Because Madam Rong's matter was over, and then he saw that Ding Lei was so anxious, so he always wanted to say hello under the circumstances.  "Oh, Brother Qin, it's nothing serious. It's just that the gambling house at home has some difficulties." So, Ding Lei then told the general story of what happened.  It turns out that the Ding family, as the owner of "Ding's Gambling House", has been operating a gambling house in Bianliang City for a long time.  Moreover, due to its special geographical location, there are no competitors in the area. Therefore, in previous years, their Ding family's business was still doing well.  However, recently, a new gambling house suddenly opened near their "Ding's Gambling House".  It turns out that during the preparation stage of this gambling house, the Ding family didn't pay much attention to it.  After all, the Ding family has been operating in this area for a long time. It is well-established and has a certain reputation. Therefore, how can this newly opened gambling house easily shake the Ding family's family business?  However, what they didn¡¯t expect was that just a few days later, their entire Ding family would not be at peace.  Because, since this new gambling house was opened, the turnover of their Ding Family Gambling House has dropped by 80%.  "It dropped by 80%? Isn't this impossible?" When Qin Yong heard what Ding Lei said, he also thought it was a bit incredible, so he couldn't help but ask.  Because, for a casino like "Ding's Casino".  As long as there are no problems with themselves, the opening of a new gambling house should have little impact on them.  Because, after all, they are well-established, that is to say, they are quite famous among gamblers. Therefore, if the new gambling house does not have anything attractive enough, it will definitely not be incorporated into it.  Eighty percent of the business of Ding's Gambling House was taken away.  "Well, to be honest with Brother Qin. Although this matter is unreasonable, it is the fact." When Ding Lei heard Qin Yong's question, he sighed and said.  In fact, as a dude who only cares about spending money, he didn't need to think about it so much. Anyway, their Ding family had a huge business and he had to spend it alone.  It also takes a long time to spend it all.  However, hasn't he followed Qin Yong a lot?  So he has seen Qin Yong achieve such and such achievements many times, so he also hopes that he can make a difference. ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? This is also human nature.  It just so happened that something big happened to their Ding's Gambling House this time, so he took care of himself and put a lot of thought into it.  only.  His father has not known about this thought, otherwise.  Who knows if his father would say he was nosy?  There is no other way, this is also because Ding Lei's "criminal record" is too bad, so his father has already despaired of him.  "Oh? What's going on? Tell me!" Qin Yong didn't know that Ding Lei used to be a freeloader in his own home, so at this time, he still asked Ding Lei directly.  As for Ding Lei, he really knew it.  Because, since he had made up his mind to take care of this matter, it would naturally take a lot of effort, and his father would not shy away from anything in front of him. Therefore, after this back and forth, Ding Lei also settled the matter.  The truth has been roughly heard.  It turns out that the main reason why the newly opened casino was able to take away 80% of the turnover of "Ding's Casino" in a short period of time is because they have newly developed a lot of casinos.  A new way to gamble.  As for "Ding's Gambling House", there are only one or two dice, Pai Gow and the like coming and going. Therefore, those gamblers have long been tired of it, so this discovery has a new type of gambling.  In other words, they will naturally flock to it.  "Oh? If that's the case, why don't you just do it?" When Qin Yong heard this, he couldn't help but interrupt Ding Lei and asked.  This is also the normal thinking of ordinary people. Anyway, in this era, there are no such things as intellectual property rights. Therefore, if "Ding's Gambling House" is willing, it can use the other party's gambling methods  Copied.  In this case, there will be no essential gap between the two parties.  ¡°However, this is something Ding Lei¡¯s father, Ding Datong, is reluctant to do.  Because, after all, their "Ding's Gambling House" is an old gambling house. Only new gambling houses have always imitated the old casinos, but where are the old gambling houses???Do you want to imitate the claims of new casinos?  So why is it so embarrassing?  Therefore, Ding Datong was naturally reluctant.  Of course, this is just a matter of appearance.  If Ding Datong cannot find any other alternative in the next two months, he will have no choice but to do this in the end.  After all, in this way, they can at least win back some familiar customers from the new gambling house.  However, it is basically impossible to completely defeat Xin Du Fang or even directly crush it.  Because they had already lost the opportunity.  "Oh. That's it. Haha, wouldn't it be over if you just invent a few new gambling methods on your own?" After listening to Ding Lei's introduction, Qin Yong finally understood the ins and outs of the whole thing, but he didn't expect that  Unfortunately, his next words made Ding Lei speechless.  "Wouldn't it be over if you just invent a few new gambling methods?" What he said is indeed good, very good.  However, who knows, in fact, this new gambling method is really not that easy to invent.  Especially if you want to think of a gambling method that is fair enough and interesting enough, it is really too difficult.  Otherwise, in the "gambling house" industry, how come there are only a few classic gambling methods that have come and gone over hundreds of years?  This is not because the so-called new gambling methods that most people have come up with are really not very attractive.  "Brother Qin is joking. If this new gambling method is so easy to think of, I won't have such a headache. Okay, Brother Qin, I'm already home. Let the coachman take you back home." It turns out that while talking,  , the carriage had already carried the two of them to the door of "Ding's Gambling House", so Ding Lei jumped out of the car, stood under the car and said to Qin Yong with his hands raised.  "Oh? Here? Let me take a look." Qin Yong also jumped out of the car and saw a large room not far behind Ding Lei. Judging from the scale, it was at least four to five hundred square meters.  However, the door to the house was quite narrow, and it was covered with a curtain with the words "Gambling House" written on it.  Needless to say, this is the "Ding's Gambling House", the property of their Ding family. However, Qin Yong is a little surprised that the "Ding's Gambling House" is so inconspicuous in appearance.  Of course, these things are not important at the moment. The main reason why Qin Yong jumped out of the car with Ding Lei was that he actually wanted to see if he could help Ding Lei.  After all, his current relationship with Ding Lei could not be said to be bad. However, he would not be so full of words before the matter was not sure, so he raised his hands to Ding Lei and said, "Haha, Brother Ding  "In fact, I have never been to a gambling house before, but I happened to meet him today. Otherwise, why don't you let me go in and visit?"  I also have high regard for Brother Qin, so why don¡¯t you just ask Brother Qin to stay at my house for dinner tonight before leaving?¡± Ding Lei said.  Qin Yong's request was actually beyond his expectation, but he was not too embarrassed.  Because his father approved of having a good relationship with Qin Yong.  It turns out that his father Ding Datong can be regarded as a "theater fan", so he has naturally heard of Qin Yong's name as "Yongyue Gongzi".  Not only had he heard of it, he had also seen the operas "Du Shiniang Sinks the Treasure Chest in Fury" and "Butterfly Lovers".  Therefore, once he learned that his precious son was on good terms with Qin Yong, he was immediately overjoyed.  Because even if Qin Yong is not well-known in poetry, he is still a candidate for the examination. What's more, he has considerable attainments in opera. After all, he is a serious scholar.  Therefore, he naturally agreed that Ding Lei and Qin Yong should be friends.  This is better than the friends and friends Ding Lei had made in the past, so whenever he had the chance, he would almost always ask Ding Lei to invite Qin Yong home.  Ding Lei himself knew that Qin Yong had been quite busy some time ago, so he was too embarrassed to speak.  But, it¡¯s different now.  Because Qin Yong happened to have arrived in front of their "Ding's Gambling House", and he was also interested in going into the gambling house to have a look. More importantly, he did not seem to be interested in the gambling house in the following time.  There is nothing else to do, so it is better to choose a day than to hit the sun. It is indeed a good choice to keep Qin Yong for a banquet today.  "Haha, okay. It's just too intrusive!" Qin Yong originally wanted to see if he could help Ding Lei, so naturally he was eager for such a request.  Because, he could take this opportunity to get a better understanding of the situation of this "Ding's Gambling House", and if he could be of help in the end,Then of course he will help.  However, if you can't help in the end, you will have an excuse to stay. At the very least, it will not make the Ding family and his son feel awkward.  (To be continued)
