It was the first time for a group of ministers to play mahjong, but this wooden tile game was very similar to "Ma Diao Ye". After listening to the prince's interpretation and playing in person, the four people on the table had already somewhat understood it.
There are almost no ministers in the Ming Dynasty who can't play "Ma Diao Ye". There are only two types: those who are good at playing and those who are bad at playing. As long as there is "Ma Diao Ye" as the basis, the speed of learning mahjong is very fast. of.
The four contestants here are all extremely smart, and they can draw inferences from one instance to another. What the concubines took a whole morning to master, they only need one-third or even a quarter of the time to master it.
These people all have their own set of skills in handling government affairs, and they are considered the best among the imperial officials. They can even play board and card games that are much easier to deal with. Their mental abilities are more than enough to calculate the opponent's cards.
It's just that everyone is still in the exploration and familiarization stage, and it's unrealistic to guarantee that you won't make mistakes when you first get started, but the four of them are still making cards in unison.
"Twenty thousand!"
"Xue Aiqing can use the leverage!"
"...Oh~! Thank you for the reminder, Your Highness!"
As a prospective son-in-law, a certain prince naturally wanted to cheer for his prospective father-in-law. Xue Guoguan's row is also quite powerful. Not counting the open Kong, the next one will be able to draw the treasure.
"This is your first time playing, so I'd like to give you a heads up. Xue Aiqing actually doesn't need kong and can still draw cards normally, but in this way, the people preparing for Hu Erwan will definitely not know that he already has three cards here. Add Put one on the table, which means that it is impossible to use 10,000 and 30,000 cards to get 20,000. If you have to play such a bad card, you can only play it and find the treasure. If it is a concealed Kong, that is Someone already has three identical cards in his hand, and he draws one more, making up four cards. Then the other three players have to guess what card he is using, because the 'hidden Kong', as the name suggests, is to directly draw it. It’s invisible to outsiders. If someone from the other three families is cheating on the concealed Kong tile, they can only touch the treasure tile!"
Li Shiwen was about to get stuck with 20,000 yuan. If the chief assistant didn't know what to do, the Secretary of the Ministry of Revenue would be stuck like hell...
These words made the surrounding spectators nod frequently. This kind of wooden card game combines reasoning, calculation, and luck. It is really fun.
A certain prince also explained a little because everyone was a novice, otherwise he would have been too lazy to explain. Even if he didn't understand it at the time, he would understand it after suffering several losses and paying the tuition with money.
"Eight cakes!"
The chief assistant is now waiting for someone to play him another three or six so he can listen to the cards. He can also draw one himself. In short, the situation is very good. He strokes his beard with great satisfaction, feeling so beautiful in his heart.
"Ten thousand!"
The previous family had already used 20,000 yuan to death, so the 10,000 to 30,000 yuan Li Shiwen held in his hand was meaningless. After he drew a fairly good card, he simply threw it out, out of sight and out of mind.
"...Li Aiqing, are you still going to detain me?"
Yao Ji took one look and knew that the Secretary of the Ministry of Finance had started to enter the trap mode without paying attention.
"I wonder why Your Highness asks such a question?"
Li Shiwen was still a little confused, thinking that he already knew the rules of mahjong.
"Que Yao Duan Jiu is not allowed to cheat. Even if he cheats, it will be considered cheating, and he will have to pay compensation to three families!"
In his deck of cards, there was no tail card starting with nine, no bird, no pie, and no red. There was just one card worth ten thousand, and he had to play it out.
This is really a good example of throwing cards for a moment, and throwing a piece of cake to capture your thigh~!
"this……"
Li Shiwen looked at his cards and recalled what the prince had said. He was dumbfounded and wanted to go back, but was stopped by Zuo Maodi, the governor of Shaanxi.
"Hey? Mr. Li, landing is a dead card, haha~!"
Zuo Maodi happily picked up the ten thousand that the other party threw out, and then prepared to go up to hear such a happy event.
"this……"
Hong Chengchou was confused. He didn't know what was going on. He was Li Shiwen's next player. He watched Zuo Maodi overstep his position and take the cards away from him.
"That's right, it's really no problem. Can Hong Aiqing use ten thousand bucks?"
Yaoji hurried over to take a look, but Zuo Maodi was a rising star after all. He had a very bright mind and there was nothing wrong with the cards he drew.
"Go back to your highness, I don't need this card!"
Hong Chengchou understood that the person who wanted to win the card could grab the cards. If he wanted to win the card, and the next player also wanted to win the card, he could still follow the original order of grabbing cards. However, he could not win the card for ten thousand, so he had to work hard. Just touch the cards.
"Rokujo!"
Zuo Maodi played out the useless cards he didn't have, then looked at the treasure card happily, and rubbed his hands excitedly, hoping to win.
"Touch~!"
Xue Guoguan had already stretched out his hand, ready to touch the cards. He almost trembled when he heard Hong Chengchou's somewhat crisp call.
"Listen up!"
He also wanted to touch six items, but Zuo Maodi brought them to him unexpectedly. It was really convenient to just wait and see.
Xue Guoguan complained in his heart. Although he didn't say anything with his mouth, he complained to the Minister of Hubu to death with his eyes.
It doesn't matter if you lose Zhang by yourself, just send the other two cards to the table. Originally, my card should be the first to play, but this time it's better.
The chief assistant has automatically classified Li Shiwen as a pig teammate. If he didn't have to play cards, he would have stretched out his hand to strangle this guy.
"Haha... interesting!"
When a certain prince saw what Hong Chengchou wanted to do, he immediately smiled. He knew how to play, and he got a single win. Most people would not use such unorthodox tactics.
As long as this card is still in the Great Wall and is touched by someone, it will be played out nine times out of ten. It will directly become an artillery, and it will almost hit with one hit.
In mahjong, which is mainly played with Kahu, there are relatively few single-player players, so players are more careless and don't care much about side cards such as Unitary Nine.
His character can also be seen through the cards he plays. Hong Chengchou is a very pragmatic person. He does not seek to be big, but only wants to be able to play cards, which is exactly the same as him being an official.
In comparison, the 40,000 cards played by Zuo Maodi are generally not easy to play, and this involves the risk of firing.
As soon as "Wei Cha" was beaten out, he would have to pay ten taels of silver in compensation, and no one would be willing to do it instead.
"...It should be this one!"
Like a veteran, Hong Chengchou did not look at the cards first, but touched them with his hands. He felt that the pattern of the wooden card was very similar to the one he wanted, and then he turned over the card he touched, which attracted the admiration of his colleagues around him.
The reason for everyone's consternation was not that Hong Chengchou succeeded in taking the trick, but that what he was trying to do was a "treasure within a single trap" and he was caught. The compensation amount for each family was as high as twenty taels!
Yao Ji also admires this guy's luck. This is the only Hu card and treasure card left in the Great Wall. According to the probability, the chance of Zuo Maodi's Hu card is twice as high as his. Even so, the final winner is still Lao Maodi. Flood head.
The chief minister is still complaining about the Minister of Household Affairs. If he hadn't hit him with 10,000 yuan, such a chain reaction would not have happened. But going back further, it was Xue Guoguan who started the fight. If he hadn't killed 20,000 people, Li Shiwen wouldn't have It’s 10,000.
If we go all the way back, it was a certain prince's idea to start the fight, but it is impossible for Yaoji to take the blame. As the sole sponsor of this entertainment event, of course, he has the undisputed right to the final interpretation.
After he had gambled 20,000 yuan, he immediately gave away twenty taels of silver, almost injuring his father-in-law internally. Xue Guoguan was about to make a comeback. This was all Li Shiwen's fault and had nothing to do with his superb poker skills...
They lost one-fifth of the chips in their hands in just one move. Except for Hong Chengchou, who was so happy that his mouth was grinning to his cheeks, the other three companies were extremely nervous. If they continued at this pace, they would be kicked out in less than an hour. Went down.
It is a small thing to lose all the money given by the prince, but it is a big thing to lose one's standing in front of colleagues. When word spreads that so-and-so is the first to be kicked out, colleagues will use this as a topic of conversation after dinner, and I will be speechless. Yes, we must regroup.
The four players are all young and powerful players, so the speed of coding the Great Wall is very fast. Regarding Hong Chengchou's victory, the other three players all agreed that it was just a fluke...
"Bang!"
It's a coincidence that the would-be father-in-law opened the bar when he came up, and it was a concealed bar, which made the three people on the opposite side go straight to their feet, because they couldn't guess what the chief assistant was using.
Yao Ji was also shocked. If things continue like this, the first assistant will be renamed "Shou Gang". This is completely a rhythm of no joy~!
However, the actual threat to other players is almost zero, because Xue Guo's watch is red, which does not affect the entry and exit of the other three cards at all.
But the three guys on the opposite side were kept in the dark and couldn't figure out the first assistant's situation at all, so they became cautious when playing cards. This "strategic weapon" can actually have a deterrent effect.
The biggest fear in playing mahjong is that the opponent's concealed tiles are the ones that kill you. It would be a relief if you had all the tricks on the surface. You have been working hard for a long time, but when it's over, you find that the opponent has blocked your escape route. How frustrated I feel~!
A certain prince believed that the other three players would come up with similar ideas and would try their best to avoid a hundred things that might not happen once from happening to him. Otherwise, he would really be laughed at by the audience.
Xue Guoguan was wondering, how could a person like Li Shiwen, who is strong on the outside and hard on the inside, be his next employer?
The last player was Zuo Maodi, and this guy was Zhang Fei's embroidery. He was rough and fine, so he was very difficult to deal with. It was very difficult to take his cards.
As for Hong Chengchou who was sitting opposite, the Chief Assistant became angry when he saw his complacent look.
He made sixty taels of silver in one go, which was almost one-tenth of his monthly salary. He had to find a way to make him spit it out.
Xue Guoguan was so anxious that he didn't even bother to drink tea. He just sat there and thought hard about how to play Hu cards as soon as possible.
"I……"
Yaoji glanced sideways at the card of the Secretary of the Ministry of Finance and almost cursed.
The superior officer, Li Shiwen, played a single card, which directly caused irreparable and serious consequences.
This one is very different. There are three pieces of one cake, two pieces of nines, one piece of birdie, and two pieces of ninety thousand. You no longer have to worry about not being able to play.
For Li Shiwen, these Yaojiu cards are like a box of ginseng, and they can be replenished happily!
Another question came up. The prospective father-in-law had a monopoly on "Hongzhong" and the Minister of Household Affairs was "wholesale Yaojiu" here. How could the other two companies be successful?
A certain prince who was very curious about this went around and found that Zuo Maodi and Hong Chengchou were not short of this stuff. Following the lesson of Li Shiwen, they both paid special attention to this area.
"I'm sorry, please listen to me first~!"
The person who said this was still Hong Chengchou. Yaoji was very suspicious that his favorite shepherd dog had pulled Tuo Xiang under his chair. Otherwise, why would Lao Hongtou be like sitting on a rocket, jumping straight up without being able to stop him? live.
"Sixty thousand!"
As his next player, Zuo Maodi can currently only guess his Hu cards through the cards played by Lao Hongtou, but at most he can guess that he does not want Tiao and Wan. The Hu cards are likely to be pie, and the specific number is just how many pie. It’s unknown.
Xue Guoguan became even more anxious when he saw this. He had only touched four cards, but Hong Chengchou on the opposite side had already started to touch the treasures. Is his card skill really so high?
"Two cakes!"
After scratching his head and thinking for a long time, the prospective father-in-law felt that the two cakes he had just picked up were really useless. The cake cards only had two five cakes and six, seven, and eight cakes on skewers. There was no need for the two cakes to fill up the count. It was natural for him to be an abandoned son. .
"Thank you, Chief Assistant!"
Hong Chengchou hurriedly stopped, first politely thanked him, and then turned over his cards with a smile on his face, indicating to everyone that it was so comfortable to have an invitation.
Two cakes alone!
I guess there is no one here!
Yao Ji felt that Lao Hongtou’s IQ was extraordinary!
Most people will choose to single-hook the Yaojiu card, which is the easiest way to cheat. At most, the single-hook card will be red, just like the top.
However, Hong Chengchou actually played the game of two cakes, which was very bold for a skilled man, let alone a prospective father-in-law who took the initiative to feed him cakes.
"..."
When Xue Guo saw Hong Chengchou's cards, his expression suddenly froze, and he had to cover up his embarrassment with a wry smile.
The upper hand was worth 20,000 yuan, and finally Hong Chengchou was asked to touch the treasure. This hand made two cakes, which directly turned into a point gun!
This number is really unlucky, so you must be extra careful in the future.
What's even more tragic is that Li Shiwen is still standing there with nothing to show for it!
The first assistant finally opened the door. He only had to pay ten taels of silver, but the amount of compensation from the Minister of Household Affairs had to be doubled.
Just two hands and forty taels were output, which was an eye-opener for everyone present.
Li Shiwen was so depressed that he almost vomited blood, and looked at the chief assistant reluctantly.
These two people are a perfect match - brainless and unhappy!
The Secretary of the Ministry of Revenue has reason to believe that this is a deliberate revenge carried out by the first assistant because his boss lost money!
One is given to people to listen to, and the other is fired directly!
You two must not tell me that you are both legendary masters!
It seems that your poker skills are not as good as Concubine Tian's. She is unlucky, but she doesn't often fire...
The chief minister and the minister of household affairs "fell in love and killed each other" because of playing mahjong. This is an anecdote that made me angry~!
After watching two full live broadcasts, a certain prince was basically sure that Hong Chengchou was really smart and very lucky.
Zuo Maodi can't beat him, but he is also a master at playing. Most people can't beat him.
As for the remaining two, Yaoji doesn't want to make any comments. After all, people's strength lies in their own will.
Because if they keep playing like this, the "audience" behind them is going to come on stage.
