Chapter 40 Jiang Fujie takes the bait



"Go! Why not? I've been waiting for you to say that!"

Hearing that Chu Erdan was looking for him to win money, he quickly agreed;

"Brother Chu, come in and wait for a moment. I'll change my clothes and pack up. We'll leave right away..."

Jiang Fujie let go of Chu Erdan's shoulders and said anxiously;

It was as if he was afraid that Chu Erdan would just leave on his own and not take him with him…

“Okay, okay…..hurry up a bit!”

Chu Erdan glanced at Jiang Fujie, then looked at the Jiang family's yard, his eyes full of contempt.

A guy who just wants to eat and die is not worth your effort to win over. Isn't it that he will be fooled by just a little sweet treat?

The boss is really wasting his talent. He has wasted so much of his time and energy. It's time to close the net!

Jiang Fujie, who hurried back to his room to change clothes, didn't notice the contempt in Chu Erdan's eyes;

After entering the house, Jiang Fujie was still dreaming of getting rich.

Anxious, he rummaged through boxes and drawers, and finally found a decent set of clothes and changed into them;

After changing his clothes, he thought of something and hurried to his wife's dressing table.

After looking at herself in the mirror for a while, she took out the hair oil, combed her hair into a big back bun, and then applied the hair oil again;

After looking at himself in the mirror, he nodded with satisfaction and whistled at the mirror... So handsome!

After packing up, he hurried out of the house.

Seeing Chu Erdan sitting and waiting for him at the stone table in the yard, he put on a flattering expression and walked over;

"Brother Chu, sorry for the long wait. Let's go now..."

Chu Erdan lowered his head, not knowing what he was thinking.

Hearing Jiang Fujie's voice, he raised his eyelids and saw Jiang Fujie, who was in a state of cleanliness. He felt disdain for the hypocritical praise that he did not show on his face.

"Brother Jiang looks so handsome after this! I'm even outshined..."

Jiang Fujie chuckled, feeling proud in his heart but modest on the outside, and waved his hand.

"No, no, I'm old! Unlike you, little brother, you are young, handsome, and most importantly, you have a bright future..."

Jiang Fujie was telling the truth in the last sentence. Don’t the people around Big Brother have a bright future?

After exchanging compliments, the two of them didn't waste any more time and headed straight out the door towards the hidden gambling house;

It is called a gambling house, but in fact it is a very secluded small courtyard that Big Brother bought privately;

It is located in a remote place on the edge of the county town, where there are few people and the environment is quiet.

The back of the yard was adjacent to the woods, and in front were a few scattered, dilapidated houses that no one lived in.

Not to mention that gambling was discovered, even large animals were seen nearby and no one paid attention;

The two turned left and right, passed through the alleys, walked along the muddy path, and crossed the alley, and finally arrived in front of the yard;

Chu Erdan stepped forward first and knocked on the door three times, "bang bang bang..."

The person inside did not respond immediately, and the two stood at the gate in no hurry, waiting for more than ten minutes;

There were footsteps in the courtyard, but the door didn't open, and a man's voice came;

"The King of Heaven and the Tiger of Earth..."

When Chu Erdan heard the man shouting the codeword, he quickly moved closer to the crack of the door and lowered his voice;

"The kitten catches the mouse..."

As the voice fell, the door was opened with a creak, and the one who opened the door was a man nicknamed "Old Demon";

He glanced at the two of them, signaled to Chu Erdan and nodded;

"Come in!"

Before Chu Erdan entered the room, he did not forget to carefully scan the surroundings.

Finding that there was not a single hair, he nodded to the old demon and led Jiang Fujie into the yard;

The yard wasn't big, only a few dozen square meters, and it was a mess, as if it had been abandoned for a long time...

Several people were already used to it, so without saying much, they went straight to the main room in the middle;

Before I even got close, I heard the voices of several people inside;

"How big are you going to bet today? Fifty cents or one dollar?"

"If you want to win money quickly, I think you should just go for five dollars!"

"I lost over fifty dollars last time. It was a huge loss! I must win it back this time..."

"No, you're the only one who lost! I lost over thirty too!"

"Come to think of it, that guy surnamed Jiang won quite a bit!"

"It seems like he always wins these few times..."

"What can I do? I'm just lucky..."

The three of them walked to the door of the main hall. The old demon coughed first, "Ahem... well... let's go!" Then he pushed the door open and walked in with the other two.

Inside the room, a dozen people sat around a table, drinking tea and chatting cheerfully, a stark contrast to the cautious atmosphere outside.

Seeing Chu Erdan leading people over, everyone greeted him;

"Brother Chu, you're here!"

"Hey...Xiao Chu!"

"Chu Er, when are you going to play a game with us?"

"It's been a while since I last saw you? Chu Er...!"

Chu Erdan didn't mind and didn't care what they called him.

His name itself is a bit strange, it's all because of his dead father, what kind of name is this?

After responding to everyone one by one, he led Jiang Fujie to introduce him;

"This is Brother Jiang, who I played with a few days ago..."

Some people who had met Jiang Fujie before greeted him, and those who didn't know him nodded as a token of their appreciation.

After drinking a cup of tea handed over by the younger brother, Jiang Fujie and others came to the table;

As soon as they sat down, the few people who had lost money a few days ago looked at each other, and one of the fatter men said with a bitter face;

"Brother Jiang, we've been losing these past few days, and our luck isn't as good as yours. If we keep going like this, I don't know when we'll be able to win back. How about we play something bigger?"

When the others heard this, they nodded in agreement.

"Yeah, yeah, yeah... Let's go for something bigger! The fifty-cent and one-yuan ones are too slow, let's just go for the five-yuan ones! If we really lose again, we can only blame our bad luck! We can't blame anyone else, right?"

Several people nodded and winked at each other, agreeing together;

"this……"

Jiang Fujie fell into deep thought. Five dollars is not a small amount. Although he doesn’t have to pay it now, if he loses, it will be a huge sum of money!

"Hey, hey, hey...Brother Jiang! What the hell are you still thinking about? We're not afraid of such bad luck! What are you afraid of? Just beat him up. You're so lucky, you're sure to win money..."

"That's right! Brother Jiang, your luck must be due to you praying to the God of Wealth at home!"

Jiang Fujie himself was still a little unsure.

Hearing the praise and boasting of a group of people, I immediately felt elated, and all the fear and uncertainty had long since disappeared from my mind.

He waved his hand, like an emperor high above, giving orders to the courtiers below;

"That's right, let's do five bucks..."

The others saw that there was something interesting going on, and gave each other a suggestive look, while praising at the same time;
