Caishen Hall, third floor.
The wretched man stood up slumped, cupped his hands towards Jiang Fengqing and said, "Your Excellency is superior in skill, I am ashamed of myself. This time, I lost."
Upon seeing this, Jiang Fengqing also stood up and gave a faint salute.
After a while, the croupier swiped the sleeves of his robe, and the lime on the table, the piece of emerald, and the black crystal were all swept into her robe sleeves.
Although these gambling stones are used for gamblers to gamble, the things they get out actually belong to the God of Wealth Hall. If gamblers want to buy them, they will naturally have to spend a sum of money.
"I didn't expect that your Excellency is so secretive. You have such a superb skill in identifying stones. I wonder where you studied as a disciple?" Li Zhenyu stared at Jiang Fengqing's exposed hand with deep eyes.
The reason why he asked Jiang Fengqing where he apprenticed was because judging from his exposed hands, Jiang Fengqing must not be more than twenty-five years old. You must know that if you want to achieve a profound level in the field of stone gambling, it will be impossible to study it thoroughly in less than thirty or forty years. At his age, he is already very young in the stone gambling world.
From Jiang Fengqing's previous words and deeds with the dealer, it can be concluded that his moral conduct is not shallow, at least to the point of entering the court.
Although Li Zhenyu could have reached the level of Jiang Fengqing if he asked himself, he was already in his thirties and had cultivated to this point. However, his family spent a lot of money and visited countless stone gambling masters. After obtaining the secret book, he also bought a large number of gambling stones for him to practice.
The gamblers present also turned to look at Jiang Fengqing at this time, and they were all aroused by Li Zhenyu's curiosity about Jiang Fengqing's origins.
In the stone gambling world, having a strong master to lead the way will not only help you grow quickly and avoid many detours, but also save a lot of waste of resources.
This is the dream of countless newcomers in the stone gambling world. After all, there are still mostly poor people in this world, so although stone gambling is a shortcut that can make people rich overnight, most people do not have the capital to pay the upfront tuition for stone gambling.
This is why so few people can go to the upstairs of Caishen Hall to play stone gambling, while there are so many people gambling on the first floor.
It can be said that all the gamblers here have studied under teachers and have a deep knowledge of stone gambling. Even Lu Jinxin, who has never studied in a private school for a few days and has never memorized the Four Books and Five Classics. The stone-gambling master whom his father spent a lot of money to hire highly praised his persistence and hard work in stone-gambling.
"Haha, where did I have any apprenticeship? I just stood by and took a look when others were betting on stones." Jiang Fengqing laughed.
But what he said is correct. He has indeed never been a disciple. After all, if a prince goes to be an apprentice to learn this stone gambling trick, it will bring disgrace to the royal family. If it spreads to the common people outside, then his position as a prince will be ruined. Where can I still save it?
It was just that when a scholar from Xuzhou Tianxia Academy who was good at gambling visited the palace, he accidentally met the young eldest prince and found that the eldest prince liked to play with a piece of jade he carried with him. Therefore, before leaving, the great scholar left him a book about his experience in gambling on stones.
This book may not mean anything to the eldest prince. After all, there are so many royal books and it is hard to find what you want.
But if it spreads outside, I'm afraid it will blow up all the casinos. This is the experience of a great scholar from Tianxia Academy. If you can gain something from it, you can make a lot of money.
Not to mention making a fortune by gambling on stone, at least it is no problem to have enough food and clothing.
With his preference for jade and other objects, as well as his extraordinary talent and sufficient use of resources, Jiang Fengqing has made great progress in stone gambling.
Others have to use the experience gained through continuous efforts and attempts, and he can know it directly in the secret book. Others had to hesitate and prepare for a long time before they could get the hand-practicing gambling stones. With just one word, he could fall asleep and let his subordinates transport countless numbers for him to practice.
"Haha, how about we start the gambling game?" Li Zhenyu said with a smile.
The dealer's eyes swept over everyone's faces one by one, and everyone nodded.
The croupier gently touched his palm, and the ten maids immediately came to the gaming table in two rows, each carrying a wooden board.
The maids moved lightly without making any sound of footsteps.
Wait until there is a maid standing behind every gambler. The maids slowly lifted the board and placed it vertically in front of the gamblers.
I saw small wooden strips with numbers from one to ten written on them.
The croupier threw another pile of wood chips at the gaming table.
The wood pieces slid out quickly, drawing an exquisite arc, and then scattered apart when they were about to touch the table.
buzz buzz
Ten pieces of wood were actually placed in front of the ten gambling stones. The words one to ten were clearly marked on the pieces of wood.
At this time, the gambling table suddenly became quiet, and the eyes of the gamblers kept wandering.
Some people are staring at one or two gambling stones on the gambling table, seeming to be hesitating which one to choose. Others are secretly looking at the expressions and eyes of a certain gambler at the gambling table, seeming to have some differences with that person. idea.
It didn't take long for Li Zhenyu to start moving.
An Zicheng looked up and saw Li Zhenyu waving to the maid behind him. The maid immediately picked up the wooden board on the table, raised it in front of him, and said something in his ear. Then seeing Li Zhenyu nodded, the maid carefully put all the chips in front of him into her arms.
Then Li Zhenyu raised his hand and took out a small piece of wood on the wooden board, but it was covered by the wooden board and it was not possible to see which one he took.
After he finished taking it, he directly laid the wooden strips upside down on the table. With a confident smile on his face, he looked at Lu Jinxin, who was looking confused and full of hesitation.
"Why are you so hesitant, Master Lu? How about I give you a trick? Just close your eyes and touch the board held by your maid. As long as you don't touch the maid, that's fine."
"Haha, yes! But Master Lu is used to touching Bai Huahua's body. It's a bit difficult to change this time. It's better to touch it with your eyes open."
While Li Bai was mocking Lu Jinxin, he also called the maid and placed his chips.
"You guys... hum, I'll make you look good later." Lu Jinxin hesitated fiercely for a long time, but he couldn't think of words that could be said to be powerful.
After all, Lu Jinxin had read very little, so he could only make some harsh words to foreshadow the situation.
At this time, Lu Jinxin was also determined to win the gambling stone he was interested in, so he immediately explained the betting matters to the maid behind him.
As time goes by, the chips in front of most gamblers are taken away by the maids behind them. They have basically placed their bets on the gambling stones they want, and are just waiting for everyone to place their bets and the results will be revealed.
Seeing that Jiang Fengqing was the only one left on the field, the purple god of wealth coin was placed in front of him.
He shook his head indifferently, waved to the maid behind him to come closer, and then whispered something to her.
Then the maid also put away the God of Wealth coins in front of him, and everyone immediately looked away curiously.
This is also a rule of stone gambling. After the game starts, the chips in front of the gamblers must be handed over to a maid for safekeeping. This is also to prevent gamblers from secretly increasing or decreasing the chips in front of them while the game is going on. After all, during the gambling game, as long as the gambler loses all the chips in front of him, he will be out.
Not long after, the maids came to the croupier one by one in the same order they had been lined up in two rows before, seemingly reporting on the gamblers' bets.
With the dealer's continuous nodding, when the last maid finished reporting the betting status of the gamblers she was responsible for, the maids returned to their original positions with the wooden boards.
At this time, the croupier straightened his robe sleeves with a smile. The gamblers on the table also sat up straight and looked at the dealer nervously.
I saw the croupier flicking his robe sleeves very slowly, and the wind caused by the robe sleeves seemed to be restrained to a small height above the gaming table, so Jiang Fengqing could only feel a slight strong wind in her chest.
As for An Zicheng, who was behind Jiang Fengqing, his pupils shrank when he saw this. A layman looks at the excitement, an expert looks at the door. From the dealer's exposed hand, he could clearly sense that the dealer's strength was not simple.
Although the dealer's cultivation level is lower than his, her power control methods are extremely skillful. Even An Zicheng in his heyday would not be able to do it as easily as she does.
The six gambling stones were pushed in front of the six gamblers by the strong wind. Lu Jinxin on the side suddenly frowned and stared at Li Zhenyu who looked thoughtful.
Because the No. 1 gambling stone he was interested in was rightly placed in front of Li Zhenyu.
Li Zhenyu seemed to have noticed Lu Jinxin's gaze, and immediately pretended to be surprised and said, "Oh, why is Master Lu looking like this? Could it be that I stole the gambling stone you were interested in?"
Li Bai, who was playing with the gambling stones in front of him, also laughed at this time, "Is it possible that Young Master Lu can't bear to play with more chips? I remember that Young Master Lu had a lot of chips before, didn't he?"
Lu Jinxin's face instantly darkened, but he did not utter a rebuttal.
He knew very well that he had bet a total of eleven black God of Wealth coins on the No. 1 gambling stone, but this was not as good as Li Zhenyu's chips. This made him wonder how many God of Wealth coins Li Zhenyu had bet on this No. 1 gambling stone. currency.
You must know that they are not just going to end this round of gambling after playing one or two games. They have to play until nine people lose all their chips, and the rules for winning here are very clear. Both sides compare the value of their gambling stones, and the winning side collects the money. All the chips the other party bets.
This rule makes many people have to consider how much they should bet. If they bet less, they will not be able to compete for the gambling stones they are optimistic about. If they bet too much, if something good is not drawn, or it is better if it is drawn. Anyone who chooses something as an opponent may lose everything.
It can be said that this stone gambling game is full of psychological games and luck struggles, which is why countless rich and powerful people are addicted to it.
"Then please guests who don't have gambling stones in front of them, please choose gambling stones from the remaining four." The croupier said loudly, "The first one is number nine."
As soon as these words came out, everyone's eyes flashed.
You must know that this is important information. The order mentioned by the dealer here is based on the number of chips placed by the four people.
If you can know who among the people here has bet a lot of chips and who has only a few chips, when you hit something good, you may be able to strike accurately and earn a lot of chips instead of hitting the one who only has a few chips. , wasting your good luck in vain.
The dealer's words prompted everyone to record the information that among the four, Lu Jinxin had the most chips.
Lu Jinxin looked impatient, grabbed one of the four gambling stones on the table, and put it in his hand.
The dealer nodded and spoke again, "Second, number ten."
