Chapter 329: Soft and Hard



Chen Cang felt a chill in his heart. He was caught at the bottom and had to lose double the money. This time, with each player betting 8 cents, he would lose 2.4 yuan.

Chen Cang looked at Wan Feng and said, "I really want to know why Liang Wan's King killed my 2 when I was hanging the first card. Why didn't you add to the ten points in Liang Wan's hand?"

Wan Fengping raised the corner of his mouth. "If I added that ten points, would you still play according to the bald-shaving method? If you don't play according to the bald-shaving method, you will win this hand. The reason I didn't add that ten points is to give you a chance to shave your hand. People are greedy. I thought you would play according to the bald-shaving method, so we have a chance to make your hand fail. You really played for the bald-shaving method, so in the end you got the last one."

Chen Cang thought for a moment and asked again, "If I don't get greedy, will this hand be successful?"

Wan Feng nodded: "It will definitely be done."

"Since you dare to do this, it means that you knew from the beginning that the cards I had in my hand were the Ace and Queen of Diamonds?"

"It seems you're not stupid. You're right. From the moment you held back your cards, I knew you were holding the Ace and Queen of Diamonds from the side deck. All I wanted to do was make you throw away all your main cards and keep these two side cards for last. But you did as I planned."

"How could you possibly know from the beginning that I had AQ of diamonds in my hand?"

"Because I know all the cards above the jack in your hand, I naturally know that you are keeping the ace and queen of diamonds. It just so happens that the king of diamonds is in my hand, so I will keep the king of diamonds to pick you."

"This is impossible. How did you know that I had more cards than J in my hand?" Chen Cang was a little exasperated. He only had one dollar left, and he lost two dollars and four in this round. How could he afford to give the money to others?

Wan Feng smiled slightly and said, "Because I know the cards. Not only yours, but also the cards in other people's hands. As long as the cards are above 10, I know them all."

Chen Cang's eyes fell on the cards on the table.

Wan Feng collected the cards on the table and shuffled them, then faced Chen Cang: "Look carefully, this is the King, this is the 2 of Clubs, this is the Ace of Hearts..."

Wan Feng counted the cards one by one, and read out a total of thirteen cards without making any mistakes.

"Did you see clearly? I know so many cards. How can you beat me?"

"Is there something wrong with this deck of cards?" The three monsters interjected.

Wan Feng took out a new, unopened deck of cards from his pocket.

"I saw it. I bought this pair at the supply and marketing cooperative after school this afternoon. I haven't even opened it yet. At least there's nothing wrong with it right now."

Wan Feng opened the cards and threw them to Chen Cang: "Check it out."

Chen Cang checked the cards and placed them on the table.

Wan Feng picked up the cards, shuffled them twice, looked at all the cards one by one in front of everyone, and then threw the cards to Chen Cang.

"You can pick out fifteen cards from here at random, and I can recognize all the cards above 10."

Chen Cang picked up the deck of cards doubtfully, took out fifteen cards from it, then placed the cards on the table and scratched out one from the deck.

Wan Feng glanced and shook his head.

Chen Cang drew the second one.

"King of Spades."

Chen Cang opened it and it was indeed the King of Spades.

Chen Cang drew the cards one by one. Wan Feng read out a total of eight cards. He got six of them right, but he got the suits of two wrong. He read the J of Diamonds as the J of Clubs, and the Q of Clubs as the Q of Hearts.

The cards he didn't read were all cards below 10.

"How did you do that?"

"It's simple. Mark them. I marked all the large cards when I took out the new deck just now. But only I can see it. You can't see it at all."

"So you cheated!" Chen Cang suddenly stood up from the kang and hit his head on the ceiling of Liang Wan's house with a bang.

Chen Cang forgot that he was on the kang.

The three monsters also wanted to stand up angrily, but gave up the idea when they saw Chen Cang hit the ceiling.

The smile on Wan Feng's face gradually faded. "Yes, you are right. I did cheat. What do you want to do?"

Chen Cang's face was grim: "Cheating in the casino means cutting off a finger. I want..."

Wan Feng interrupted Chen Cang directly: "What are you doing! You want to cut off my fingers? Zhang Xian! Tell him Jiang Wei who is the boss!"

Zhang Xian flashed out from the side and pulled Chen Cang off the kang and onto the ground with a bang. He then threw him to the ground and was about to step on him, but was stopped by Wan Feng.

"Don't make it hard on him. I think he's a smart man and will recognize the current situation."

Wan Feng glanced at the three monsters, and they shuddered.

"Pull him up, don't let him think we are bullying him."

Zhang Xian picked up Chen Cang with one hand and put him on the edge of the kang.

"Your name is Chen Cang, right? Chen Wenxin is your daughter?"

Chen Cang nodded.

"I'm telling you, I did cheat in the card game just now, but it wasn't to win the two coins you two had on you, which together didn't amount to more than five dollars. Even the few dollars you had on you weren't worth my attention."

Wan Feng took out a wad of money from his pocket. All of them were ten-yuan notes, tied with a piece of paper.

"I'm telling you I'm very rich. At least compared to you, I have much more money than you do. But I can tell you, none of this money came from gambling. Today I want to teach you a lesson: nine out of ten gambling games involve fraud. The saying "nine out of ten gambling games involve deception" is true; it's all around you. Whether it's poker, dice, Pai Gow, or mahjong, everything related to gambling is fraught with fraud. What do you know?"

Wan Feng looked at Chen Cang.

Among him and the three monsters, he was mainly targeting Chen Cang. As for the three monsters, he would listen if they wanted to, and he would not care if they didn't want to.

"Can you steal cards or use magnets to control dice? You can't even recognize cards or mark them, so what gives you the guts to hang out in a casino? People who come in like this are just idiots. Do you know what idiots are? They're unlucky people who only give money to other people to help them feed their wives and children. People like you are just wasting food and creating feces, nothing else matters. If I had bought a piece of tofu and hit myself to death, there would be no point in living!"

Chen Cang was sweating profusely.

"I guess you're thinking, if I learn all this, will I get rich? Wrong! I can tell you that no one who gets rich by cheating has a good ending. They almost always die a violent death. Do you know what the consequences are for those who die violently?"

Chen Cang shook his head in confusion.

"People who die suddenly will not be reincarnated as humans, but will eventually be reborn as animals. Perhaps one of your chickens, ducks, geese, or dogs is someone who died suddenly in a previous life, or perhaps even someone who made a living by gambling. Do you understand?"

Chen Cang didn't know whether Ming understood or not, he just nodded woodenly.

"Your daughter and I were deskmates. If we weren't related, I wouldn't care whether you lived or died. Go home and pack up. Go to the brick and tile factory tomorrow and work diligently to support your wife and children. If you hear Chen Wenxin say you gamble again, I'll tie a rock to you and sink you into the rubber dam to feed the fish. Do you understand?"

Chen Cang was startled by the roar and nodded hurriedly: "I heard it! I heard it!"
