Chang'an, Caishen Hall.
An Zicheng looked at Jiang nervously while Fengqing walked towards the maid with unhurried steps.
"Mouse, don't blame me for not reminding you. This is the God of Wealth Hall. If someone wants to cause trouble inside, they must find someone to collect their bodies in advance." Lu Jinxin laughed loudly, and the smell of alcohol coming from his mouth made the crowd gather around him. The men around him had a hint of displeasure on their originally smiling faces. However, there was no other way. Who allowed this prodigal son to be born into such a big family and endow him with wealth that they would not be able to spend in ten lifetimes?
"Yeah, yeah, if you piss off the God of Wealth Hall, even if you have ten heads, you won't be able to chop it off!"
"Master Lu is acquainted with several adults in the God of Wealth Hall. Now that you dare to break into the God of Wealth Hall, you have brought shame on Master Lu. If I don't break your legs today, it won't be enough to establish your authority!"
"Now kowtow to Master Lu ten times. Maybe Master Lu will be happy, so let's start more gently."
After finishing his drink, Lu Jinxin seemed to enjoy watching the ugly behavior of the two mice in his drunken state.
He walked up to An Zicheng with his hands behind his back, a big belly and chubby legs.
Three steps away from An Zicheng, Lu Jinxin stopped and looked at him with a frown.
"Are all rats these days so stupid? Want to sneak into the God of Wealth Hall with this rustic outfit? Dream on!" Lu Jinxin arranged his luxurious clothes slowly, his words full of sarcasm.
He had heard from his old man how powerful the power behind the God of Wealth Hall was.
Apart from the terrifying financial resources of the God of Wealth Hall, the boss behind it has peak seventh-level strength, which is enough to make countless powerful people befriend him. Therefore, no matter whether they are high-ranking officials or wealthy people, they dare not cause trouble in his territory.
An Zicheng clenched his fists without saying a word, not because of Lu Jinxin's sarcastic words. After years of fighting on the battlefield, he had already developed a persevering heart. It was not the few words of Lu Jinxin, a playboy, who could provoke him. of.
However, he was worried that Jiang Fengqing was young and vigorous and could not bear such humiliation. Once his identity as the eldest prince in the past was revealed, the consequences would be disastrous...
When the maid saw this man in plain clothes, with his head and tail hidden, walking towards him, the maid felt even more disdain in her heart.
After working as a gatekeeper for so many years, she has seen too many ordinary people who want to sneak into the God of Wealth Hall to gain knowledge, or just talk about it after dinner.
However, after these people were discovered, they all groveled and quickly begged for mercy. Because those who tried to break in, or wanted to leave by force, were forcibly brought into the God of Wealth Hall, and were never seen again.
"What's going on? Why are so many people gathered outside?"
A middle-aged man wearing a purple robe with a five-character mark on his chest came from the door with a majestic expression and his hands behind his back, followed by two men in black robes.
As soon as the middle-aged man walked out of the door, the crowd outside exploded.
"Purple-robed deacon?! Did I read that correctly? A purple-robed deacon actually showed up?"
"There are seven deacons in the God of Wealth Hall in purple robes, twelve in black robes, and twenty-four in green robes. I never thought that I would see such people in my lifetime..."
"Yes, yes, the gamblers in the God of Wealth Hall are either rich or noble, and the strength and status of the deacons who receive them are also divided into different levels. I heard that generally the gambling games of wealthy businessmen are received by green robes. Those high officials and nobles They are received by the black robes. As for the people who can be received by the purple robes, they are all people from the top families and even the royal family..."
"Gamblers like us who only have a few dollars can only play in the lobby on the first floor of the God of Wealth Hall, where we will have the opportunity to come into contact with these deacons."
"Could it be that the God of Wealth Hall has determined that the eldest young master of the Lu family has the qualifications for them to dispatch the purple-robed deacon?"
The crowd was chattering and talking, as well as the countless fiery eyes looking at Lu Jinxin. He couldn't help but puff out his chest and shrink his belly.
Unexpectedly, I, Lu Jinxin, would actually have the opportunity to have the purple-robed deacon come out to receive him in person. Even my old man and several other uncles come to Caishen Hall to play on weekdays. At most, he would have the black-robed deacon come out to receive him, while the purple-robed deacon would receive him in the box on the third floor. ah.
Lu Jinxin felt excited and worried.
In his opinion, although the purple-robed deacon's previous words were asking what happened here, he was actually supporting himself, wanting to help him deal with the two mice, and taking the opportunity to have a good relationship with him.
Thinking of this, a smile appeared on Lu Jinxin's face, not only because he was proud of his keen eye for seeing the purple-robed deacon's thoughts at a glance, but also because he wanted to give some response to the purple-robed deacon's discerning eye.
Seeing Lu Jinxin's appearance, the men around him immediately understood and raised their heads and chests with joy in their faces. After all, it may be the only chance in their lives that the purple-robed deacon can receive them in person.
Although they followed Lu Jinxin on weekdays, they often acted arrogantly. However, the God of Fortune Hall clearly stipulates that gamblers can only bring one subordinate in at most, and the rest of the subordinates can only wait outside. Therefore, most of them have never stepped into the God of Wealth Hall.
"I advise you to listen to Master Lu's advice and kowtow to him quickly now to apologize, and you will save yourself the pain. Otherwise, it will be very uncomfortable for you two later." The maid saw the arrival of the purple-robed deacon, He immediately turned around and saluted, "Report to the five deacons that these two people want to sneak into the God of Wealth Hall. Fortunately, Master Lu gave me some advice, so I stopped these two people and prevented them from succeeding."
The deacons of Caishen Hall are all codenamed by numbers in Caishen Hall. They are identified by the numbers on their chests, not their names.
"Oh? Is that so? Do you two have any excuses?" Purple-robed Deacon Wu looked calmly at the two people who were covered up tightly.
It's not that he has never seen such people before, some wealthy people who are low-key or have difficulty being recognized will be like this.
Therefore, they will not do this kind of thing of judging a book by its appearance and making hasty judgments.
As for the eldest young master of the Lu family and his second-rate men who were grinning at him not far away, he didn't want to take a second look.
If the head of the Lu family came, he might say hello and welcome him in. As for Lu Jinxin, who had a bad reputation and bad character, he really had no interest in dealing with him.
After all, these deacons usually interact with either the first-rank ministers of the court or the heads of the top families in Kyushu.
You know, Caishentang has never made money from ordinary gamblers in the lobby on the first floor. Although there are many gamblers, the income they bring is only a drop in the bucket of Caishentang's income.
What Cai Shen Tang really cares about and really serves are the guests on the second floor and above.
"Is this the only way to treat guests at Caishen Hall? Or are you worried that guests will soil the fifth-grade bearskin carpet outside the box on the fourth floor? Although the bearskin is indeed very soft to step on, you can't help but step on it for a while." Jiang Fengqing said softly.
The maids on the side were shocked, knowing that these maids could only move around on the first floor on weekdays.
As for the private rooms upstairs, even the sanitation is the responsibility of the deacons. If they are caught secretly going upstairs, they will be kicked out of the God of Wealth Hall at least, or...
The maid covered her mouth, not daring to think any further. She once saw a maid sneaking upstairs to take a look. She was discovered by the guests on the second floor and wanted to let the maid accompany the wine in the private room. The maid didn't want to and struggled to run downstairs.
Later, the maid was caught by the green-robed deacon in charge of that box, her eyes were gouged out, and she was finally driven out of the God of Wealth Hall.
From that day on, she understood deeply that none of the guests upstairs could be offended.
Thinking of this, the maid looked at the purple-robed Deacon Five carefully. After all, whether these two people are guests on the fourth floor depends on the judgment of the purple-robed deacon.
Purple-robed Deacon Five also had a problem at this time. The blanket in the box on the fourth floor was indeed made of fifth-grade bear skin. Most people were not exposed to these things. However, it is not ruled out that these two people accidentally overheard the discussions of those who had been to the fourth floor of the God of Wealth Hall, and then moved out in an attempt to muddle through.
Purple-robed Deacon Five thought about it for a moment and became very upset.
These troublesome matters were not originally his concern. He just wanted to complete a task given to him by his boss, which was to pick up a distinguished guest from the God of Wealth Hall to the fifth floor. Then he came to the first floor to wait, and happened to encounter a situation at the door. After waiting for a long time, he wanted to come and deal with it out of boredom, and do some activities on the way.
Who would have thought that he would get into such trouble?
At this time, Lu Jinxin, who had been waiting for a long time, was also a little depressed. The purple-robed deacon actually stayed with the mouse while talking, leaving him, the distinguished guest of the God of Wealth Hall, aside. Wasn't this purple-robed deacon? Are you here to pick him up, Master Lu?
Lu Jinxin gritted his teeth and said, "Master Purple Robe Deacon, can you let me go in first?"
The subordinates around Lu Jinxin also spoke one after another.
"Yes, Mr. Purple Robe Deacon, our young master has been waiting here for so long, we must not let him in."
"Our young master comes from the Lu family, the first family in Chang'an!"
A trace of displeasure flashed in the eyes of the purple-robed deacon. As one of the seven purple-robed deacons of the God of Wealth Hall, he really didn't take the eldest young master of the Lu family seriously. What's more, even after the decline of the Huo family, the first family in Chang'an, the Lu family's development has never reached the original heights of the Huo family.
Although he couldn't afford to offend the Lu family, it wasn't something that the eldest young master of the Lu family could manipulate at will.
"Excuse me for waiting. Welcome all distinguished guests to the God of Wealth Hall." The purple-robed deacon bowed slightly, and the black-robed deacon behind him also bowed to make way.
Lu Jinxin's face lit up with joy, he casually ordered one of his men to follow him, and then walked towards the door.
The crowd was all excited.
"It seems that the Lu family is really prosperous. I didn't expect that even Young Master Lu could ask the purple-robed deacon to come downstairs to pick him up in person."
"Yes, yes, if the old man of the Lu family comes, what kind of reception will the God of Wealth Hall receive?"
"You won't let the Master of the God of Wealth Hall come to pick you up in person, right?"
"Master of the God of Wealth Hall? How long has it been since he last showed up? One year? Three years?"
Lu Jinxin looked even more proud as he listened to the remarks of the crowd behind him. The men behind him also straightened their backs, as if on a pilgrimage.
However, just as Lu Jinxin was about to step into the door, a figure from behind appeared in front of him.
It was Jiang Fengqing who he regarded as a mouse.
"I am a guest here, and the God of Wealth Hall did not disappoint me." Jiang Fengqing stepped into the door. An Zicheng behind him hesitated for a moment and followed in.
The purple-robed deacon was stunned for a moment, then said in a deep voice, "However, if an uninvited guest comes in, the God of Wealth Hall will not be lenient and will definitely provide a quiet and comfortable environment for the guests upstairs. Please cooperate with the guests later and let us verify it. Are you qualified to enter the God of Wealth Hall?"
Although the purple-robed deacon knew that once he said these words, he would easily offend those guests with bad tempers, but he had a mission and did not have time to deal with this matter slowly. If you really offended this guest, you'd better apologize later.
"I believe that the purple-robed deacon will treat every guest fairly." Lu Jinxin glared at the backs of Jiang Fengqing and An Zicheng in front of him, "If a mouse sneaks into the God of Wealth Hall, it will definitely not be able to get out of the God of Wealth Hall. door!"
The maid on the side carefully glanced at Jiang Fengqing and An Zicheng who were entering the door, and saw that their steps were steady and did not change at all because of the words of the purple-robed deacon and Master Lu.
She naturally knows the qualification test mentioned by the purple-robed deacon, which is to ask every new guest to show something that can prove his or her identity or financial resources.
If you want to go to the private room upstairs, you have to exchange special chips, God of Wealth coins. Only those with the corresponding level of Wealth Coins can go upstairs.
The God of Wealth coins are divided into green God of Wealth coins worth 10,000 taels, black God of Wealth coins worth 100,000 taels, and purple God of Wealth coins worth one million taels.
It is said that there are still tens of millions of taels of God of Wealth coins that can enter the fifth floor of the God of Wealth Hall.
But she had never seen anyone go to the fifth floor.
In the splendid God of Wealth Pavilion, the circular escalators circle and block the appearance of the upper floors. This prevents people downstairs from seeing what the scenery is like upstairs.
