Huo Yunzhi was secretly pleased, thinking that she could take over Qin Lou without lifting a finger.

When the time comes, I will definitely open a teahouse that is a level above Qingyuzhai.

Qingyuzhai doesn't welcome her?

Her Yunzhi Tower also did not welcome those people.

Yunzhilou was the name she had in mind.

She believed that with her intelligence, running a small teahouse would be a piece of cake.

"Boss, what are you waiting for?" Cheng Qingli didn't say anything more, thinking to herself, "This Huo Yunzhi really won't shed a tear until she sees the coffin."

Today, she'll show her what it means to be overconfident.

"Miss Cheng, you've already lost all your bets," Huo Yunzhi said smugly. She had just won two rounds, but it was only Cheng Qingli's hundred taels of silver that she had placed in two separate bets.

Speaking of which, she had just won a hundred taels of silver, which made Liu San and his group green with envy.

However, they dared not cause trouble at Jubaolou. Although they did not know who the owner behind the scenes was, they knew that he was extremely powerful and not someone they could afford to offend.

But so what? This woman can't stay in Jubao Tower forever.

Thinking of this, Liu San and the others became even more eager to get started.

As long as they control that woman, let alone the hundred taels, judging from her demeanor, she must have a lot of money on her.

Thinking of this, Liu Sanchong exchanged glances with the men beside him.

"Bet on small!" Cheng Qingli placed one of her gold hairpins on the small bet.

"Third Sister Cheng, you should think this through." Huo Yunzhi's eyes were full of smiles when she saw Cheng Qingli's exquisite gold hairpin. After all, this thing would be hers soon too.

That gold hairpin was obviously no ordinary item. Although I didn't lack such things, who would complain about having too few good things?

"If that's what you're saying, then I'll have to think about it." After Cheng Qingli finished speaking, she picked up the gold hairpin, looking very hesitant.

When Manager Xu saw the gold hairpin, he thought to himself, "Does the Empress know that you used the gold hairpin she bestowed upon you as gambling money?"

Gifts bestowed by the emperor are all registered and recorded, but they cannot be traded. If this lady were to actually win them back, it would be a real problem.

"Hey, isn't it said that once a move is made, there's no going back? How can you go back on your word?" Huo Yunzhi said, somewhat displeased.

"Why are you in such a hurry? I've lost so badly, I need to think about how to win it back," Cheng Qingli said, glaring at Huo Yunzhi with an unhappy expression.

As Cheng Qingli finished speaking, an unsettling chuckle was heard.

Many people watched Cheng Qingli place her bets and saw her lose one bet after another.

After Cheng Qingli came in, she never won a single game, and everyone looked at the girl with some sympathy.

They had all won a few times, but this silly girl kept losing, yet she seemed to get more and more excited as she lost.

She's already lost several hundred taels of silver, and she hasn't stopped.

I don't know if it's because of their deep family wealth or because they're young and fearless.

"Bet on small!" Cheng Qingli hesitated between big and small for a long time, but in the end, she firmly placed the hairpin on small.

"Why go to all this trouble?" Huo Yunzhi said without thinking, placing the hundred taels on the table.

"What, Madam Huo, you're out of money? Only giving one hundred taels? Are you trying to fob me off like a beggar? This gold hairpin of mine is a peony flower made by Master Lu himself; it's priceless." Cheng Qingli looked at the mere one hundred taels with some disdain.

She didn't want to make a losing deal.

We must at least make Huo Yunzhi bleed.

Otherwise, why would I have wasted all this time playing with her?

"Then add another three thousand taels!" Huo Yunzhi took out the three thousand taels she carried with her without hesitation. She didn't care, as these things would be returned to her sooner or later anyway.
