    "East!" "South!" "West!" "North!" "Big! Big!" "Small! Small!" "Pure! Pure!" "Uh" We just walked into that place  "Ding's Gambling House", a sound like the sound of killing a pig came over, which shocked Qin Yong.  There is no way, who knows that he has never been to the casino at all.  In his previous life, when he was still in the society of later generations, he was a college student with good moral character, so naturally he would not enter the casino. In this life, his father is the leading wealthy businessman in Yangzhou City, and he is a legitimate person.  The rich second generation of Erba Jing, so naturally there is no need to enter the casino.  Because all the attractions in the casino basically come from the magic of money. However, he already has countless money in his hands. It can be said that he can't count it. Therefore, naturally there is no such thing.  The pursuit of getting rich overnight.  In fact, even if the current Qin Yong has not possessed the former playboy, he is actually not very keen on gambling in gambling houses.  Because there are generally no beauties present in gambling houses, so he is naturally unwilling to enter them often.  On the contrary, he prefers to go to brothels, so he will leave a romantic reputation in Yangzhou City.  In addition to the sound of killing a pig, after taking two steps closer, a strong and strange smell hit your face. It was the smell of fish, sweat, and the unique smell of blood from a butcher.  Well, Qin Yong really wants to ask, is this a gambling house or a refugee camp?  How come the taste can reach such a level?  Looking around, I found that there were about a dozen tables inside, of different sizes, and each table was crowded with people, including fishermen.  Butcher, hunter.  There were also a few people in uniform, and it was really a mixed bag.  But they all have only one identity at this time, that is, gamblers, the kind of gamblers who have already gone a little crazy with gambling.  Look at their blood-red eyes.  With his flag-waving and shouting attitude and his life-threatening attitude, Qin Yong couldn't help but sigh to himself. It seems that no matter what era he is in, gamblers are always virtuous.  "My young master, are you here?" At this time, a tall and thin middle-aged man came over.  He bent down and said to Ding Lei.  Ding Lei nodded.  Pointing at Qin Yong, he said: "Uncle Lu, this is Mr. Qin Yong." Then he said to Qin Yong: "Well, Brother Qin, this is the big shopkeeper of our 'Ding's Gambling House'." Casinos all need shopkeepers.  , and it is also divided into dozens of shopkeepers, large and small. Generally, the main job of these shopkeepers is to act as banker for the casino in the casino.  However, this shopkeeper Lu is a little different.  Because he is the big shopkeeper in charge of the entire "Ding's Gambling House", so he is responsible for the inside and outside of the "Ding's Gambling House".  Basically everything is under his control.  Of course, above him, there is Ding Lei¡¯s father Ding Datong, but.  Shopkeeper Lu didn't pay much attention to Ding Lei, his young boss, because.  In the past, Ding Lei rarely appeared in "Ding's Gambling House".  Moreover, even if he appears here, he usually doesn't care about anything, so in the eyes of shopkeeper Lu, Ding Lei naturally has no status.  Of course, even though he thinks so in his heart, in fact, he is also very good at life, so he will not show it on his face casually. Therefore, Ding Lei has no idea that he, the shopkeeper,  In fact, he doesn't think much of him.  However, although Shopkeeper Lu doesn¡¯t think much of Ding Lei, his young boss, he is quite sensitive to the name Qin Yong.  So, after hearing Ding Lei's introduction, he quickly said, "QinQin Yong? Is it the Young Master Yongyue who wrote "Butterfly Lovers" and "Du Shiniang Sinks the Treasure Box in Fury"?" No.  Wrong, this must be another loyal fan of "Butterfly Lovers" or "Du Shiniang Sinks the Treasure Chest", so Qin Yong also took advantage of it, and he was still recognized by others even after he came here.  .  "Yes, this is Qin Yong, who has met shopkeeper Lu!" Qin Yong quickly returned the greeting with his hands in hand.  Since people recognized him as "Young Master Yongyue", he would naturally not dare to put on airs casually, and he still wanted to maintain his image as "Young Master Yongyue".  However, he was quite surprised that Shopkeeper Lu knew about him.  Because, there are currently many people who say that the two operas "Butterfly Lovers" and "Du Shiniang's Furious Treasure Chest" were composed by "Mr. Yongyue". However, those who know that "Mr. Yongyue" is Qin Yong, relatively speaking.  Much less. Moreover, there are so many people named Qin Yong in this world. However, Shopkeeper Lu recognized him at a glance. He was the so-called "Master Yongyue".?So, this does make people feel quite strange.  However, from Ding Lei's point of view, this matter is very common, because he has already publicized it in his own family. He thinks that "Yong Yue Gongzi" Qin Yong, so this body  Shopkeeper Lu, who was in "Ding's Gambling House", actually knew about it, so when he heard Ding Lei introduce Qin Yong's name, he immediately realized that this was "Master Yongyue".  "Haha, I don't dare to bet on it, I don't dare to bet on it! By the way, Mr. Qin came to the gambling house today, but how many games do you want to play?" Shopkeeper Lu said suddenly.  Hearing what he said, Ding Lei was slightly startled, and then glanced at Shopkeeper Lu in surprise, who quickly gave him a wink, telling him to calm down.  In fact, what he means is very simple, that is, their Ding family itself is a casino, and since this "Master Yongyue" does not dislike Ding Lei because of this, it means that he does not actually dislike casinos.  , so it is reasonable to ask him to give it a try at this time.  Maybe this can also enhance the friendship between the two people. Anyway, the bets are provided by their "Ding's Casino". If you win or lose, there is no problem.  "How many games can you play? Okay. Then Shopkeeper Lu, please give me one hundred taels of silver." Sure enough, after Qin Yong heard what Shopkeeper Lu said, his heart moved and he spoke.  It turned out that he was also itchy. After all, he had never bet money with anyone in his past life.  What he wants to gamble now is not the opportunity to make big money, but the fun involved.  As the saying goes, small gambling can make you happy, but big gambling can harm your health.  Qin Yong is still very clear about this.  "Haha, Mr. Qin is so polite. The young master is a friend of our young master's family, and he is also the dignified Young Master Yongyue. How can I exchange this little money with the young master! Well, there happens to be a hundred taels of chips here, young master, use it to play.  Right." Shopkeeper Lu said.  "Okay, that's the case. You're welcome." Qin Yong was really rude, so he took the chips directly and took Ding Lei to find a place to gamble.  It turned out that the main reason why he decided to play it was to actually experience what the so-called gambling houses of this era were like.  Because it was just an on-site inspection.  Only then can we make the most correct suggestions.  Qin Yong first went to the table with the most people and took a look. It turned out that this table was playing betting, that is, pushing pebbles and the dealer used a wooden stick to set aside part of it.  Four-four-one points, and the final four, three, two, and one are obtained, which correspond to east, south, west, and north respectively. The bettor only needs to place the money in the desired direction.  It couldn't be simpler.  I didn¡¯t expect this thing to be so popular nowadays.  Although Qin Yong understood it, he had no interest in placing bets.  So he shook his head and sighed, and slowly walked to the table next to him.  When he got there, he discovered that there was a deck of square tiles on the table. Then, his eyes lit up and he exclaimed: "Pai Gow!" "Uh, Brother Qin, these are the dominoes." Ding Lei listened.  Hearing Qin Yong's cry, he couldn't help but correct him.  Although he is uneducated and has no skills in the whole "gambling house", as the young boss of this "Ding's Gambling House", he still understands all kinds of gambling techniques in this gambling house.  .  However, what he didn't know was that what Qin Yong said was actually not the same thing as what he knew.  "Oh? So, this thing is still called that?" In fact, Qin Yong is not very familiar with gambling, but at least he knows that dice and Pai Gow should be relatively common in ancient gambling houses.  There are two ways of gambling, but I didn¡¯t expect that in this era, it wouldn¡¯t be called this?  However, after standing behind the crowd and watching for a while, Qin Yong discovered that this "domino" and "Pai Gow" are actually not the same thing.  Because the gameplay of this "domino" is too simple, it is bigger than the number of points, and it doesn't even have the Double Heaven Supreme Kill. Therefore, I sighed in my heart and thought, "It seems that this domino should be the predecessor of Pai Gow."  " "Hunchun, Hunchun." Suddenly he heard shouts from a table behind him, so Qin Yong ran over to look at it curiously and saw the dealer taking away the jar that was originally on the table.  , he thought there would be dice inside, but he didn't expect it to be six copper coins. This was indeed the first time he heard about this thing, and it was the first time he saw it, so he couldn't help but ask Ding Lei and said: "Ding  Brother, what's thiswhat's it called?" As a result, Ding Lei looked surprised and said, "QinBrother Qin, you don't know this?" "Nonsense, I know why I'm asking you?" Qin Yong rolled his eyes.  Moreover, Ding Lei¡¯s eyes??, it¡¯s too strange.  how?  I don¡¯t know what this thing is. Is it something serious?  How did he know that in fact, the thing in front of him was actually the most popular gambling method in the entire Zhou Dynasty. Therefore, anyone who has ever entered a gambling house will basically know its name, and even  Know its rules. Even many people who don¡¯t like gambling very much know it. Relatively speaking, there are even fewer people who don¡¯t know it. That¡¯s why Ding Lei looked strange at this time.  His eyes were looking at Qin Yong.  "Hehe, I thought you were deliberately entertaining me." Ding Lei looked at Qin Yong's expression and knew that he was not joking, so he smiled and quickly explained this method to Qin Yong.  It turns out that this thing is called Guan Po, which is the most popular gambling method in Da Zhou. The gameplay is also very simple. That is, if the back of the copper coin is facing up, it is called "Pure", and if the front is facing up, it is called "Mainqian". If all the coins are facing up,  It's called "pure".  Gamblers usually bet on how many "pures" there are. If someone bets on "pures", once it comes out, it will be ten times the profit. In order to compete for this "purity", many people often make a clean bet.  , two sleeves of breeze.  "Boring." After listening to Ding Lei's words, Qin Yong gave a comment directly, thinking to himself, it seems that the gambling methods of this "Ding's Gambling House" are indeed not very good. No, he didn't even look at it.  There were so many different ways to gamble, but none of them attracted him to bet money on.  In fact, regarding this point, it is really Qian who misunderstood "Ding's Gambling House". The fact is that not only "Ding's Gambling House", but even other gambling houses in the entire Great Zhou Dynasty  , most of them only have a few similar gambling methods. In fact, most of the other so-called newly invented "gambling methods" are derived and expanded from these basic gambling methods, so they are fresh.  The extent is actually very limited.  "Uh, boring? ThenBrother Qin, do you still want to read?" When Ding Lei heard Qin Yong's comment, he was really speechless.  So, after a pause, he asked Qin Yong directly.  Because, in his heart, he thought that since Qin Yong said it was boring, there must be no reason to continue reading.  However, what he didn't expect was that Qin Yong's purpose was not to gamble, but to experience the main advantages and disadvantages of their gambling methods in the process of gambling. Therefore, you can see him pause and say  , "Look. Why don't you look? Well, it seems that I haven't placed a bet yet. In that case, let's bet on 'Hun Chun', um, fifty taels!" Qin Yong didn't even look at it, he just placed it on  On the word "pure", fifty taels of chips were left behind.  "Hiss" As a result, his actions immediately attracted many eyes around him.  Because it¡¯s not that there are no people who invest fifty taels of silver at a time for gambling, it¡¯s just that the number is relatively small.  Because most of the gamblers in small gambling houses like "Ding's Gambling House" are just small businessmen and hawkers, as well as fishermen, butchers, hunters, etc. Anyway, there are very few people from wealthy families.  Prince Wang and Sun will come here to gamble.  Therefore, although a bet of fifty taels of silver is available, it is relatively rare.  In particular, Qin Yong was still betting on "Hun Chun" at this time. Although the profit of "Hun Chun" was extremely high, the risk was also high after all. Therefore, every gambler looked at this scene one after another.  .  "Uh, QinBrother Qin, 'Pure' is the rarest one. You may not get 'Pure' even if you fire it ten times. Are you sure you want to play 'Pure' last?" Ding Lei saw Qin Yong.  The bet he placed was "pure". As a result, he thought that Qin Yong had not heard clearly what he had just introduced, so he couldn't help but say a few more words beside him.  It's just that Qin Yong didn't hear his introduction clearly just now. He just wanted to lose the chips as soon as possible because he felt bored, so he bet fifty taels at a time.  , for the next fifty taels, his plan was to wait until he saw a suitable gambling method, and then he would bet it all in one go.  So, after hearing what Ding Lei said, he said, "Sure, let's go!" "Okay, let's buy it and let's go." "Hunchun!!!" So, this fifty-tael bet  It was just like that, but what no one at the scene expected was that the final result was unexpected, because the fifty taels of "Hun Chun" that Qin Yong placed were actually drawn.  (To be continued)
