The beautiful woman named Canniang saw Lu Jing's hesitation and keenly sensed an opportunity to turn her back on the guests.
So he became more and more bold, and took another half step forward, almost touching Lu Jing's body.
It's strange to say that not long ago, she was worried that Lu Jing would make unreasonable demands, but after discovering that Lu Jing was just asking for money, she began to hope that the other party would do something to her.
Not only to prove her own charm, but also to give her bargaining capital in the future. After all, more than seven thousand taels of silver is not a small amount.
Ordinary people can't make money in a lifetime, and although she has a lot of skills, it's not as easy to make money as she imagined.
The reason why I made a lot of money this time was purely because I just showed up and caught the gambling houses off guard with my face. However, the news spread quickly in the capital, and the gambling houses often communicated with each other.
I believe that it won't be long before those gambling houses will notice her, and maybe they will send experts to catch her for money, so the prime time for her to really make money is three or two days.
This is why she seemed a little distressed when Lu Jingding broke her thousand skills and asked her to come out to meet him, because her goal tonight was to earn 20,000 taels.
But now he had to stop even before half of it was reached. What was even worse was that after working for half a night, he could no longer save more than 7,000 glances.
Therefore, Canniang wanted to work harder and see if she could make it back a little more with her beauty.
But she didn't expect that her body would freeze at the next moment, but Lu Jing suddenly took action, and his fingers were like electricity, tapping the acupuncture points on her body.
Then Canniang felt that she could no longer move or speak.
Then Lu Jing said, "I'm sorry." After saying that, he waved to the eaves on the side.
Canniang only heard the sound of something landing behind her, and the footsteps sounded very light. Before she could see the appearance of the thing, her left ankle felt pain, but it was already bitten by the thing.
Lu Jing was also startled, as if he didn't expect that Canniang also had luck.
But this guy was so unlucky. When Chuqian met him, he was probably caught up in some bad luck. But he happened to feed the black cat, which was regarded as a good deed and helped her get rid of the disaster.
Of course, Lu Jing didn't tell Canniang about this, and she probably wouldn't believe it if he told her.
So Lu Jing just said to the satiated black cat, "Help me find the banknotes on her body."
After hearing this, the latter put his paw into Canniang's arms and touched it. It didn't take long to find the banknotes hidden in Canniang. In addition to the 7,600 taels he won in the gambling house, there were also Her own capital of four hundred taels was also included.
Canniang was so angry that her pretty face turned pale.
And the black cat wasn't done yet. He put his claws into her chest and pulled hard several times to make sure she didn't have anything valuable hidden on her body. Then he took back his hand and jumped on Lu Jing's shoulder. .
After receiving her hard-earned money, the latter handed her over and said, "Thank you for your cooperation."
Lu Jing paused, then continued, "Since I took your money, let me remind you that you'd better not go to that gambling house in the future."
There was a hint of doubt in Canniang's eyes.
"Your method of making money is good, but that gambling house also has experts in charge. Did one of the three people playing cards with you join in halfway?" Lu Jing asked.
Canniang couldn't make a sound, but she still blinked her eyes as an answer.
"He is from a gambling house." Lu Jing said, "This means that the gambling house is already suspicious of you, but because there is no evidence, they can only send someone to pretend to be a gambler to test you first, and when you go again, I'm afraid there will be no It came out so easily.”
When Canniang heard this, she seemed to have a look of dissatisfaction in her eyes.
Lu Jing, however, did not try to persuade him any further. This kind of thing had nothing to do with him in the first place. He just gave a kind reminder for the sake of the eight thousand taels of silver.
It's Canniang's own business to listen or not.
After Lu Jing finished speaking, he untied Canniang's acupuncture points and was about to leave. However, the next moment, his footsteps paused. Then, Canniang's eyes flickered, and she saw Lu Jing, who was still in front of her. It has disappeared from the alley.
Then Canniang remembered that she hadn't asked that hateful guy's name yet.
Fortunately, the next moment, there was another sound of footsteps behind her.
Canniang thought it was Lu Jing who had gone and returned, but when she turned around she found that the person who came was not Lu Jing, but a gambler who had played Pai Gow with her at the card table.
The latter pretended to be surprised when he saw her, "Hey, what a coincidence, we meet again. It just so happens that I want to find you too."
"Why are you looking for me?" Canniang looked wary after receiving Lu Jing's reminder.
"I want to discuss a business with you. You are very good at playing cards, and I happen to know a few friends who are very rich and like to play Pai Gow. I can arrange for you to meet them and play cards with them. With the money you earn, we How about fifty-fifty," the man suggested.
Canniang sneered in her heart, "Are you so sure that I can beat them?"
"Of course, they just like to gamble, but their card skills are very average, not as good as mine, and they are definitely not your opponent. But they play a big game, with a hand worth a thousand taels, and the minimum cost of playing at the table is 20,000 taels. You If you can’t come up with it, I can provide you with the principal to play with them.”
The man seemed very considerate, but after a pause, he added, "Of course, it would be better if you could tell me in advance how you plan to defeat them, so that I can be more confident."
Although she didn't want to admit it, Canniang also knew that she might have let the guy get it right this time. Ninety percent of the people in front of her were from the gambling house.
If she had heard about the opportunity to make a lot of money before, she would probably have been very excited, but now that she knew the details of the other party, she refused very simply.
"I don't have any skill in playing Pai Gow, I just have a little luck. Besides, those of your friends play too much, so it's not suitable for me."
The man didn't seem to expect that Canniang had no intention of negotiating at all. It was clear from her performance at the card table that she had a lot of desire for money.
However, he did not leave after hearing this. On the contrary, he looked back behind him to confirm that there was still no one outside the alley, and then turned his face again.
But he had already put away the smile on his face and changed to a ferocious look, "I know you are not relying on luck to win money, but on making thousands of mistakes on the card table. Don't you think you are relying on luck to win money?" After winning my money, can you still leave so easily?"
Canniang couldn't help but pale when she heard this. She knew that the other party was being soft and was ready to be tough. But the problem was that all the money she had won before was taken away by some bastard.
Now even if I want to return the money to the gambling house, I can't do it.
But just when she felt desperate, she heard a somewhat familiar voice ringing from her ears again, saying leisurely.
"It's only eight thousand taels of silver. Does the boss of your gambling shop only have this much courage?"
