Chapter 429 Anti-routine
Entering the casino, the bearded man cleared away all the gamblers who were gambling, cleared a clean table in the middle of the casino, and invited Lin Jinxiao and Chu Nanzhi to sit down.
Then disappeared for a while.
Not long after, a man in brocade clothes who was about the same size as him came out with him.
Whiskered man held a pair of dice in his hand, and solemnly introduced: "Princess Qi, this is our shopkeeper Sun."
"Sun Zhe, a grassroots man, has met King Pingning and the concubine."
Sun Zhe arched his hands, and a sly look flashed across his eyes: "I don't know if the princess wants to play dice or Pai Gow?"
The main gambling methods in the casinos in this era are dice throwing, Pai Gow and leaf cards.
There are also games like cockfights among the people.
Chu Nanzhi narrowed his eyes and glanced at the dice in the hand of the bearded man, waved his hands carelessly and said, "You are at your disposal."
Sun Zhe grinned crookedly and said: "Presumably the princess and His Highness rarely go to the casino, so the grass-roots will play a simple game with the two of you, let's just guess the size?"
"OK."
Chu Nanzhi replied without hesitation.
Sun Zhe smiled at the bearded man, hurriedly took the dice, and motioned: "Please also check the dice with your highness and princess."
"Hey, since I came in, I must trust Shopkeeper Sun."
Chu Nanzhi stared deeply at the two of them: "My son-in-law has been addicted to gambling in Guifang for many years, how can I not believe in you?"
Sun Zhe and the bearded man couldn't help showing bitterness on their faces when they heard this, and they didn't know how to answer her.
"please."
Chu Nanzhi spread out her hands and urged urgently.
Sun Zhe did his part, put the three dice on the table for Chu Nanzhi to look at, leaving some flaws, and then rolled up the dice with a tube and shook them.
After waiting to be shaken, Sun Zhe looked at her with a smile: "Are you still asking the princess to place a bet?"
Chu Nanzhi remembered that the points before he rolled the dice were three, four, and six. According to the casino's routine, he would definitely let himself enjoy the sweetness first, so he happily replied according to his routine: "Today is my palace. It's the first time I entered the gambling house, I want to get a good start, I bet one hundred taels to buy big."
Immediately put a hundred taels of silver bills on the table.
Sun Zhe nodded slightly, opened the tube, pretended to be shocked and said: "The princess is really lucky today, and the treasure has already been bet."
Chu Nanzhi looked at the dice, and there was no difference between the points and points he had before rolling the dice, and he had a rough idea.
Waiting for the second round of dice rolling, Chu Nanzhi saw that the number of points on the table was still high, but the result was also as expected, only one dice was slightly changed.
After seven or eight consecutive rounds, Sun Zhe began to change his voice: "The princess is really lucky. It's rare that the princess and her highness come to this workshop. Caomin would like to add more luck to the princess, so how about letting the princess have more fun?"
"It's true, the bet of one hundred taels is still a bit small."
Chu Nanzhi pretended to be very excited, turned her head to look at Lin Jinxiao who was bewildered, and deliberately emphasized her tone: "Why don't we increase the bet to 1,000 taels?"
"One thousand taels?"
Sun Zhe and everyone around were astonished.
Such a gamble is really a gamble.
Lin Jinxiao also kept muttering in his heart.
She has won several rounds in a row, no matter how good her luck is, there will always be times of decline.
Chu Nanzhi asked with confidence: "Why, shopkeeper Sun doesn't dare? It's not like such a big gambling house can't even get this little money out?"
Sun Zhe's face changed slightly, and he sneered, "The grass people are afraid of hurting their peace."
He wanted to show her some flaws, hoping that she would accept it as soon as she was good, but she was too greedy.
"It's okay, since you have entered the gambling house, you should know that winning or losing depends on destiny."
Chu Nanzhi waved his hand, thinking: Anyway, you won't be jumping around for a few days.
Seeing her insistence, Sun Zhe immediately lost his worries and rolled the dice again.
It's just that there are some slight changes from the previous dice roll. Every time before covering the dice, he will quickly cover the tube with his sleeve, and then quickly move it away, covering the dots when the dice entered the tube without noticing.
Chu Nanzhi couldn't see the numbers on the dice, so she could only guess the possible size of the dice based on her hunch.
In this way, he lost several rounds in a row, and all the five thousand taels of silver in his hand and the silver he won were put into it.
Sun Zhe said proudly: "I have accepted it, Wangfei."
"No fun, no fun."
Chu Nanzhi didn't intend to stop, but instead said: "How about we change the game?"
"Oh? Does the princess want to continue playing?"
Sun Zhe originally thought that she knew something about it, but after some contact, he realized that the princess was just as stupid as her little son-in-law.
Chu Nanzhi pretended not to be reconciled and said: "Of course I want to continue playing. Just now shopkeeper Sun said that I am lucky today."
Looking at her abnormal behavior today, Lin Jinxiao always felt that she had sensed something tricky, so he simply didn't stop her anymore, but echoed: "Since my princess likes to play, shopkeeper Sun will accompany her to the end."
However, what Chu Nanzhi said next made Lin Jinxiao less calm: "I thought of an extremely exciting way to play, I am not talented, but I have developed a unique skill over the years, and I can tell the number of dice by ear. "
Looking around at the dumbfounded crowd, she said firmly, "That's right, you heard me right, it's not about judging the size, but about the number of points on each dice."
Sun Zhe and the bearded man looked helpless when they heard this.
This princess's bragging is too big.
If she had this ability, how could she bet wrong just now?
Lin Jinxiao also secretly tugged at the skirt of her shirt with some worry.
Chu Nanzhi tightly grasped his restless big hand, staring at Sun Zhe, full of provocation: "Shopkeeper Sun, do you dare to bet? It's still a thousand taels."
Paused, she changed the subject: "But this time it's one thousand taels per point."
This is not looking for death.
Sun Zhe slapped the table with a decisive palm, and said excitedly: "Since the princess has such a sense of elegance, Caomin will accompany her to the end."
"Very good, shopkeeper Sun is really refreshing."
Seeing that he finally agreed to his request, Chu Nanzhi suddenly changed the subject: "But the dice will have to be thrown by Ben Gong."
“.”
Hearing this, Sun Zhe and his bearded and stretched faces tightened up, faltering and beginning to hesitate.
"Why, shopkeeper Sun is worried that Ben Gong can't roll the dice or is he worried that Ben Gong will notice something wrong?"
Chu Nanzhi stared at him sharply, with doubts in his eyes.
Sun Zhe dare not obey.
If you disobey her at this time, it is not the same as admitting that you have done something wrong again. If you cheat in front of the prince and princess, this is not the end of your life.
He gradually realized that he had fallen into the routine of the princess.
But with so much preparation ahead, she had no room for repentance, so she gritted her teeth and swallowed the bitterness, secretly winked at the servant beside her, and obediently handed over the dice in her hand.
Then he ordered someone to prepare a bank note, thinking that she was just playing too much and didn't notice anything.
At the same time, he was ready to go bankrupt.
