Chapter 138: Rich Customer
The emotions of the people around were also aroused, and their eyes were staring at the bamboo tube.
Mr. Gu's eyes were bloodshot, and he said impatiently: "Open it quickly! It must be big!"
Chen Fenghe smiled calmly and took the bamboo tube away.
There were only three dice inside, one two, two ones, small.
Mr. Gu's eyes turned green.
"How...how is this possible! You must have cheated!"
He must have changed his luck, it is impossible for him to get a smaller one!
The onlookers were unhappy: "Gu Er, can you afford the bet? I just lost five hundred taels, and I didn't see this? It's only natural to accept the loss!"
"Exactly. Are you only allowed to win and not lose?"
Master Gu said anxiously, "He rolled the dice, so of course he'll accept the loss! Who knows if he deliberately tricked me in the first round?"
Chen Fenghe had already taken the banknotes and the store deed that Young Master Gu had pledged, and said calmly, "If Young Master Gu is not convinced, I will accompany you tonight. In the next round, Young Master Gu will roll the dice. How about that?"
As she spoke, she casually placed the 1,500 taels of silver and the store deed on Xiao again.
Mr. Gu looked at the shop deeds and banknotes worth two thousand taels on the table, but he was not willing to give up. He took out two more shop deeds from his pocket and slapped them on the "big".
When everyone saw this, they couldn't help but look at each other in confusion.
Isn't this... the deed to the largest butcher and pharmacy in Qizhou City? It's also part of the Song family's assets. How did it end up in Master Gu's hands?
Master Gu couldn't wait to shake the bamboo tube, and then slammed it on the table with a "snap".
Chen Fenghe's face remained calm as she waited for him to announce the prize.
Mr. Gu's palms were full of sweat. He gritted his teeth and opened the bamboo tube. There were three twos inside, and it was still small.
"No! How is that possible! This round doesn't count. There must be something wrong with the dice..."
As Master Gu was speaking, he was about to rush forward to retrieve the store deed from the table, but he was caught by the gambling house's thugs.
"Mr. Gu, are you questioning the tools of our gambling house?"
Master Gu was furious, but he didn't dare to offend the gambling house. He stared at Chen Fenghe with wide eyes and gritted his teeth, "No... I don't want to play big or small anymore! Do you dare to play Pai Gow with me?"
Chen Fenghe was afraid that she would scare him and stop playing with her, so she said with a smile: "Whatever you want to play tonight, Master Gu, I will accompany you!"
The two moved to the Pai Gow table, and Chen Fenghe started playing Pai Gow with smooth movements.
Seeing this, everyone was amazed. It seemed that Gu Er had met a tough opponent tonight.
After the cards were pushed and before they were dealt, Chen Fenghe casually threw the 1,500 taels and the three store deeds onto the table again.
At this moment, all the casinos were in a state of panic.
"This...this is going all-in on every single hand!"
"Oh my goodness! How much is the stakes in this round? 1,500 taels of silver notes and three store deeds! 4,000 taels!"
"Who is this person?"
Mr. Gu was also confused! He did have the store deeds and house deeds on him, but... this kind of gambling method...
However, he only hesitated for a moment, then immediately took out all the store deeds from his arms and placed them on the table!
"Here! There are deeds to more than a dozen shops, big and small, and... there's also the deeds to my Gu family's house. Together, they're worth at least 100,000 taels. I'm happy today, so I'll lower it to 50,000 taels and stake it all! I still don't believe you're so lucky that you can win!"
Upon hearing this, Chen Fenghe said with some regret, "Master Gu, don't you think about it again? Are you really going to gamble your life on this?"
Everyone's faces turned green when they saw so many store deeds.
"Hey...is this really okay? These store deeds seem to belong to the Song family..."
"Hey! What does it have to do with us? We are just here to watch the fun. Who cares where Gu Er stole it from?"
“That’s right!”
Young Master Gu, already mad with gambling, sneered, "What? You don't dare to gamble anymore? That's right, you only have four thousand taels of silver in your capital, how can you gamble with my fifty thousand taels of silver? After all, if you lose, you'll owe me forty-six thousand taels of silver!"
Chen Fenghe grinned and said, "Master Gu is so generous, I naturally want to risk my life to accompany him! As for the capital... who said I only have four thousand taels?"
As she spoke, she casually took out ten silver notes from her bosom, each with a face value of five thousand taels!
The onlookers couldn't help but gasp.
This... where did this wealthy landlord come from?! He's too rich!
Master Gu was obviously a little dumbfounded, but then he thought, as long as he won this round, he would make 50,000 taels for free. The temptation was too great!
Master Gu's eyes lit up: "Stop talking nonsense and roll the dice!"
The people around couldn't help but stop shouting and making noise, and stared at the gambling game of one hundred thousand taels of silver on the table!
The crisp sound of the ivory tiles hitting each other on the table became the clearest and loudest sound. Even the few people in the room upstairs were watching intently through the bead curtain.
In the end, Master Gu revealed his cards with some pride.
I saw two identical cards, with six points on the top, three white and three red, and six points on the bottom, three red and three white.
Master Gu looked at Chen Fenghe and said with a smile, "What do you think? Mine is a pair of heavens! I want to see how you win!"
In Pai Gow, the double sky tile is the second highest point, but few people can win it.
Chen Fenghe's face remained calm, and she casually flipped over her own hand of cards.
The man behind the beaded curtain upstairs fixed his dark eyes on the pair of slender hands.
The rest of the people's eyes and attention were all on the cards.
"Ding San and Er Si! A perfect match! Supreme Treasure! Gu Er loses!"
"Who... who is this person? He actually... just grabbed the biggest card!"
Upon seeing this, Master Gu stood up suddenly, staring intently at Chen Fenghe, shaking his head and saying, "No... Impossible! How could you be so lucky! You must have cheated! I... I don't admit it! I won! I'm Shuangtian, I've never been dealt such a big hand before, there's no way I can lose!"
As he said that, Master Gu pounced on the store deed and tens of thousands of taels of silver on the table like a madman!
However, the gambling house's thugs immediately grabbed him and pushed him to the ground.
Chen Fenghe casually collected the shop deeds, house deeds, and banknotes, and said with a smile, "I told you, Master Gu, as long as you still have the capital, I'll be there tonight. But, does Master Gu still have any?"
Master Gu's face turned pale. He suddenly broke free from the big hand and tightly grasped one of the gamblers who were watching the fun, saying, "You... you have some money to lend me! Ah! I will definitely win the next round! When I win 100,000, I will give you another 100 taels, no! 1,000 taels!"
The man was so frightened that he quickly pushed him away and said, "Gu Er, you even lost your house and family, and you still want to gamble? Who would dare to lend you money? Get out of here right now and don't pass on your bad luck to me!"
Everyone couldn't help but burst into laughter.
Chen Fenghe originally wanted to use some method to take back the house deeds and shop deeds, and at the same time set a trap for the Gu family. Now that his goal has been achieved, he is about to get up and leave.
At this time, the second manager of the gambling house could not help but come out and bowed to Chen Fenghe: "Sir, may I know your name?"
Chen Fenghe looked up at him and laughed, "We just met by chance, so I'll save my name."
Upon hearing this, the boss knew the other party was unwilling to reveal the details, so he smiled and said, "Of course. But are you leaving, sir? I think you're quite lucky, would you be interested in a few rounds of gambling with me?"
Chen Fenghe sighed. Is it really that it would be difficult to escape once one’s wealth is exposed?
However, she remained expressionless and smiled, "Of course. Please."
Everyone returned to the dice table. The second shopkeeper picked up the bamboo tube, shook it for a moment, slammed it on the table, and asked, "Sir, would you like to bet on big or small? Please place your bet."
Chen Fenghe smiled faintly, took out a silver note of one thousand taels, pressed it on the big one, and said, "Big."
There was a flash of something strange in the second shopkeeper's eyes, but he turned one hand under the table and opened the bamboo tube.
The points are 'small'.
Chen Fenghe saw it clearly, but she didn't show any expression. She said, "I lost."
After saying that, he was about to leave.
The second innkeeper was startled and said, "Sir, please stay. Just one round of gambling wouldn't be enough..."
Chen Fenghe sighed. Don't blame her if she refuses to give up the way they were given.
She turned around and said with a smile: "In that case, let's make another bet."
