Chen Ming's mind moved slightly: "Is this true?"
"True, more real than pearls." Li Si pointed to the sky and swore: "I, Li Si, don't have any skills, I just have loyalty. I charge you five hundred taels less, and I also make two more taels than when I sold it to you yesterday. One hundred taels, if I am not at a loss, I should use five hundred taels of silver to give it to your brother."
Suddenly there was another five hundred taels missing.
It was enough to collect another six hundred taels of silver, and he didn't lose money.
Chen Ming's depressed mood suddenly improved.
"Thank you so much, Brother Li." Chen Ming smiled brightly.
"We brothers, we are talking like this to strangers. Big brother, why don't we meet by chance? There is a wine shop in front of you. May I treat you to a drink?"
In one day's work, he earned an extra two hundred taels, and Chen Ming wanted to eat some.
"Okay, let's go."
The wine shop had good wine and meat. The two of them sat there from afternoon to sunset, drinking no one knows how much, and both of them were drunk.
This is a bustling street. At night, it is decorated with lights and there are many pedestrians coming out at night.
Looking at all the feasting and feasting, Chen Ming was filled with emotion: "Yancheng is so nice, it's much more lively than my Zhuangzi."
"What kind of excitement is this?" Li Si sneered: "There is a place that is called lively and fun."
"Oh, what fun place?" Chen Ming asked curiously.
Li Si came over: "Brother, are you full? How about I invite you to another place and we can continue drinking?"
Chen Ming drank the last bit of wine.
Anyway, it's Li Si's treat, so he won't lose.
"Okay, let's go."
After a while, Li Si brought Chen Ming to a more lively place.
At the railing of the two-story Piaoxiang Building, there were many young and beautiful girls in scantily clad clothes standing, waving handkerchiefs in their hands to attract men coming and going.
Chen Ming's eyes widened: "This is..."
"Brother, this is Piaoxiang Tower. Look, is it lively?" Li Si pulled Chen Ming inside and dropped a large ingot of silver.
The madam selected two beautiful girls to serve them, and brought them good wine and food.
Li Si skillfully hugged one of the girls and said to Chen Ming with a smile: "Brother, this is a gold den for rich men and a place for beautiful women to fall. Don't be restrained. I'll treat you tonight."
Another girl, whose whole body was full of fragrance, smiled and fell into Chen Ming's arms: "Uncle, is this your first time? Don't be nervous. If you come here a few more times, you will be able to relax."
It was indeed the first time that Chen Ming came in.
But he used to pass by here often, and he yearned for everything here, but he had no choice but to be short of money, but now...
If someone treats you, it will be in vain if he doesn't play.
Chen Ming took the woman into his arms. The woman giggled and restlessly put her hands and feet into Chen Ming's clothes.
Li Si from the opposite side saw it and smiled proudly, "Brother, I'll go and get busy first."
He held the woman in his arms and entered the inner room.
Chen Ming was stunned: "What are they going to do?"
The woman smiled coquettishly: "What can we do? There is a bed behind the screen."
Sure enough, within a short time, women's moans and men's roars came over.
Chen Ming: "..."
The woman in his arms reached out to Chen Ming's sensitive part and pinched it gently. Chen Ming let out a hiss. He had been drunk before he came, and his head was dizzy. When the woman teased him, his whole body... All trembling.
"Uncle, let's go have a good time too."
Chen Ming couldn't bear it any longer, picked up the woman horizontally, and entered the screen behind him.
When he came out again, Li Si and the woman had finished their work and were drinking and eating.
"Brother, are you okay too? Come on, come on. Are you tired? Come and have a drink." Li Si greeted warmly.
When men have a common topic, the relationship becomes more intimate.
Chen Ming also trusted Li Si more and more.
Until Li Si suggested that the two women play some tricks, the woman took out the dice.
"Let's set a rule. Whoever loses can either choose to give fifty taels or take off a piece of clothing. How about that?"
Li Si looked at Chen Ming: "Brother, do you want to play or not?"
Chen Ming, fumigated by the smell of alcohol, nodded: "Play."
When the two women took off nothing but Li Si, Chen Ming only took off his coat and won two hundred taels!
"Brother, you are so lucky." Li Si smiled and teased himself, "Look at me, tsk tsk, naked."
Chen Mingxiao: "Brother Li, I'm sorry."
He didn't make any money from this house.
"What's wrong with you?" Li Si said boldly, "I don't have any other skills, I'm just bold. Come on, brother, let's keep drinking. We won't go home until we're drunk."
That night, Chen Ming did not return to the Hou Mansion and was hungover in Piaoxiang Tower.
Mrs. Bao was so angry that at dawn the next day, she went to Chen Mianmian to cry, "Your father didn't come back last night. Do you think he was out drinking wine?"
Sure enough, this man changes as soon as he gets rich.
Things were fine in Zhuangzi before.
Chen Mianmian has two heads and one head. She, as a mother, is very suspicious: "Mom, dad may have gone to raise money."
While he was talking, Chen Ming came back.
Smelling of alcohol.
Before Bao could raise an army to question him, Chen Ming first explained, "I went to find someone to borrow two hundred taels of silver yesterday."
When Mrs. Bao saw Yinzi, she didn't blame Chen Ming for not returning home all night, nor did she blame him for smelling of alcohol.
There are already five hundred taels, and there are still nine hundred taels left.
"Mianmian, it's only nine hundred taels short." Mrs. Bao was overjoyed. She took another ornament that she thought was good and gave it to Chen Ming: "You go sell it first and see how much the difference is, and then we get it."
Chen Ming didn't say anything about Li Si's request for five hundred taels. He took the things and left.
He went to the pawn shop and pawned some money. With eight hundred taels of silver in his pocket, he went to find Li Si first.
"Brother Li, there are eight hundred taels of silver here. Take a look. I only have one hundred taels left for you, right?" Chen Ming was very happy.
It's enough to sell one more, there's more.
Li Si confiscated it, "Brother, I know a place where you can make quick money. Do you want to try it?"
Chen Ming was a little moved, but he was still somewhat rational: "Where? Is there any risk?"
He vaguely knew where it was.
"High risks lead to high returns. Look, you spent all your savings to buy this house. Will you not spend money to live in it in the future?" Li Si counted on his fingers: "You said such a big yard, you You have to buy two maids and two boys, right? They need money, right? And the upkeep of the house, the flowers and plants, everything is free of charge? You already live in such a good house, are you willing to let them fail?"
Of course Chen Ming was reluctant to give up.
"You, take me there."
"Brother, you are so lucky, you will definitely make a lot of money today."
Chen Ming followed Li Si by some strange mistake.
The two went to a gambling house.
Chen Ming originally only wanted to make a hundred taels and then stop, but he was so lucky that he made hundreds of taels.
Li Si kept encouraging him to buy more and earn more.
Chen Ming kept pressing down, and kept pressing down.
The more he won, the more Chen Ming won. Chen Ming's eyes turned red. He felt that he was lucky and would definitely win more in the next round. He couldn't hold it in any longer.
When I started to lose money, I didn’t believe that I would definitely win the next one if I carried it so hard.
One after another, in the end, not only did he lose all the money he had won, but he also lost all his eight hundred taels.
