On the day of Gu Jiancong's birthday, Gu Jiancong and his family went to the place where the birthday banquet would be held.
Gu Mingsheng said that because there were many guests to be entertained this time, they were afraid that the house would not be able to accommodate them, so they found a relatively spacious place to hold the banquet outside.
Gu Mingsheng saw them coming and stepped forward with a smile.
"Auntie, cousin, you are here."
Gu Mengyin nodded and glanced around the outside of the restaurant.
Gu Jiancong's birthday celebration today was quite grand. Judging from the carriage parked outside the door, there were at least hundreds of guests at the banquet.
"Auntie, cousin, please go in first and wait a moment. The banquet will start soon."
What they didn't expect was that there was a whole other world inside after they walked in.
The central hall of the restaurant is very large, even sunken, like a colosseum, surrounded by wing rooms.
At this time, people had already arrived in some of the rooms, and they seemed quite lively in groups of twos and threes.
The maid took them to a wing room on the second floor.
There is a large table in the side room, which is just enough for their whole family.
"They really know how to pick a place. It's so exciting to come here to hold a birthday banquet."
Gu Mengyin didn't know much about the boundaries of Xijing. Hearing what he said, she couldn't help but wonder: "Is there anything strange here?"
Gu Wenbin pointed at the sunken paddock below and said: "My great-aunt, I don't know, but this place is the Colosseum. The dignitaries and wealthy businessmen in Xijing City come here to gamble on animals every day when they have nothing to do. This is much more exciting than a casino. "
Mrs. Zhang glanced at her son, "How do you know so much? Have you been here before?"
Hearing this, Gu Wenbin came to Zhang with a flattering expression and pinched her shoulders, "Mom, don't talk nonsense. How can my son come here? Anyone who wants to come here to bet on beasts has to pay at least a thousand dollars just to bet." There are two silver coins."
Mrs. Zhang exclaimed, "For one thousand taels of silver, how many coffins did they have to sell to get so much money?"
While the Gu family was speechless, Gu Mengyin looked around the Colosseum.
"Auntie, what are you looking at?"
Gu Mengyin shook her head, turned back to the chair, sat down, grabbed a handful of melon seeds and started eating them.
There is a talisman to exorcise evil spirits posted outside each room of the Colosseum. It seems that there are more than just beasts fighting in this Colosseum.
Gu Jiancong's family is so rich that they can take over such a big place.
The maid came up with tea and snacks.
Gu Wenbin looked at the tea and couldn't help but exclaimed, "What did my cousin do to get rich? This tea is the best Biluochun." His grandfather was only willing to take out this tea when an extremely important guest came to his door.
Gu Jiancheng looked at the tea in the cup and snorted. He earned clean money, unlike some people!
As time went by, there were more and more guests in the wing rooms. The entire Colosseum's observation deck had three floors, with at least ten rooms on each floor. Gu Wenque stood in the corridor and looked at almost every room. All the rooms are occupied.
This is an exaggeration of how many people have been invited. Even relatives of the emperor would not dare to treat guests like this.
I don't know how long it took, but Gu Mingsheng came in with Gu Jiancong.
Gu Jiancong stood directly in the middle of the Colosseum.
After the guests in the wing saw him, they all fell silent and focused their attention on him.
"Thank you all for being able to come to my birthday banquet today. I know that you have attended countless banquets of all sizes in the past. Today, I just want you to experience the difference of banquets, so I invite you to Got here.”
Gu Jiancong said, extending his hand to let a master of ceremonies wearing a round-neck robe walk up.
"Welcome everyone to our zoo. Here we not only have wonderful songs and dances, but also performers from all over the world. There are also performances that make everyone feel fresh and curious. Everyone should open their eyes wide and enjoy it. .”
After the emcee finished speaking, encouraging music sounded, and graceful dancers jumped up one after another.
Everyone was attracted by this very rhythmic music, and many people's bodies started to dance along with the music.
This was the first time for everyone to attend such a banquet. It was the first time for many ladies and ladies to see such a scene. For a while, they were not very relaxed and sat on their chairs in a reserved manner.
At this moment, a tiger roar suddenly came from the stage. The dancers who were dancing just now exclaimed and ran towards somewhere. There was a door there. As long as you entered the door, you would be safe.
A tiger with fierce eyes ran out. A dancer accidentally tripped to the ground out of fear and saw the tiger coming behind her.
This scene scared the guests to their feet, and even a woman screamed, but she quickly covered her mouth for fear of attracting the tiger's attention.
Everyone looked at the woman who fell to the ground in horror. When everyone thought that she was bound to die, she suddenly jumped up from the ground, turned around and started fighting with the tiger.
The dancer's flexible movements amazed everyone. They never expected to see a young woman fighting a tiger in her lifetime. When the tiger stood up, it was as tall as her!
Just as the battle between the two sides was in full swing, the master of ceremony's voice sounded.
"Everyone is watching with great enthusiasm, so let's make a bet, who among them can survive this competition?"
"Are these human words? Can that delicate woman really win?"
Gu Mengyin leaned on the railing and watched the competition below, a sneer flashing in her eyes.
Don't tell me, this tiger is no match for this woman.
"Whatever silver you have with you, give it to me."
Gu Mengyin stretched out her hand to all the Gu family members.
Gu family members, look at me and I'll look at you. Take money out of your wallet.
"Auntie, who do you think will win?" Although the outcome was clear at a glance, Gu Mingan couldn't help but asked curiously.
"That woman."
Gu Mengyin's answer surprised everyone in the Gu family.
"Why, is she a master at catching tigers?" Even if a weak woman can hide for a while, after her physical strength is exhausted by the tiger, she will only have to wait for death, right?
Thinking of this, Gu Wenbin glanced at the young woman with some regret. He had noticed just now that this girl danced the best just now.
It would be too cruel to lock her up with a tiger.
"Grandma, why do you think that woman will win?" Gu Wenque also asked.
Gu Mengyin raised her eyebrows, pointed at the woman's back and said, "She does have a strong character in her body."
"ha?"
Gu Wenbin stretched his neck and looked at the woman, "There is nothing."
Gu Mengyin counted the money in her hand and said to the host: "I will win a hundred times if I buy a girl."
As soon as he finished speaking, even the Gu family took a breath.
