Chapter 63: The Casino
Tian Ji was slightly stunned when he heard this, and looked at the back of Lin Jingjing leaving, and tears fell silently.
Lin Jingjing's words made different waves in the hearts of the three of them, and they didn't know what the result of this treasure hunt would be.
Back at Jane's house, Lin Jingjing walked straight to his bedroom, which was empty, only the exquisitely decorated furniture and dazzling ornaments on the table, if you didn't know, you would definitely think that it was Jian Zhanmo's favorite concubine's room when they saw such a room.
"Miss, Childe told you to go to the study." Although Lin Jingjing has lived in Jane's Mansion for a long time, the people of the Jian family still call her Miss.
After changing into home clothes, Lin Jingjing walked to Jian Zhanmo's study.
Pushing the door in, Jian Zhanmo was still smiling, and the two dimples on his face when he smiled were harmless, only his enemies knew the cruelty behind his smile.
"What did you call me for?"
Jian Zhanmo wiped the musket in his hand, "Why, can't I call you here if there's no matter?" β
"I'm yours now, do I have the right to say no?" Lin Jingjing smiled self-deprecatingly, asking this kind of question was a mockery of her.
"It seems like yes, but I like the way you resisted and ran away, and you know what attracted me to you at the time? It's your courage that you are not afraid of heaven and earth, in the whole city, you ask who dares to call myself a woman who is a simple soldier. Saying that, Jian Zhanmo glanced at Lin Jingjing, and the meaning in his eyes was self-evident, it was you who took the initiative to provoke me.
Lin Jingjing's emotions rose and fell again in an instant, now is not the time to fight with him, "Maybe this is my plan, to get your attention, and to make it," said that he was about to come back and go down for a while, and the red dust became more and more dazzling in the dim light,
"Then I can only say that you succeeded," Jian Zhanmo said, putting down the musket in his hand and walking towards Lin Jingjing step by step.
"What are you going to do? This is the study,"
Jian Zhanmo picked up Lin Jingjing's chin, "Doesn't this prove your charm?" Your means are effective enough,"
An hour later, Lin Jingjing held her waist and limped out, scolding incessantly, she also had sympathy for Jian Zhanmo yesterday, and was a little hesitant to say goodbye without saying goodbye, now it seems that she is still thinking too much, Jian Zhanmo is still the same, she is a bastard at all, and she is not worthy of sympathy at all.
After sleeping like this all night, Lin Jingjing's back was still slightly sore the next day. "Miss, are you going out today?"
I don't know when it started, Huzi's daily inquiry is not whether to gamble with chips, but whether to go out, as a person who does not play cards according to common sense, Lin Jingjing really doesn't go out today, "Give me a plate of chips, old lady, I have to have a good time today." β
Hu Zihu rolled his eyes suspiciously, Lin Jingjing seemed to have changed back to the former Lin Jingjing, but it was a little different, but this was not a problem he should think about, the only thing he had to do now was to make Lin Jingjing happy.
"Buy and leave, buy and leave."
"I'm overwhelmed, this is overpowering me."
The shouts of men and the laughter of women in the casino came and went, this was the largest casino under Jian Zhanmo's name, and no one dared to make a difference here, just like no one dared to directly challenge Jian Zhanmo's authority.
"I'm overwhelmed!" Saying that, Lin Jingjing took out the weight of a hundred silver dollars and threw it down.
"One hundred silver dollars! I... I'm also overwhelmed. "There were more than a dozen people who followed Lin Jingjing for a while, Lin Jingjing understood their thoughts, and the people who would take a hundred silver dollars as a bet were either stupid and had a lot of money, or they had extraordinary means.
"Buy and leave, open, small."
In a few words, Lin Jingjing's 100 silver dollars were gone, and even the people around her who bet with her lost money, and the one who followed the bet the most complained about it, "What are you doing as a woman, don't play if you don't know how to play, come and stir up the game." β
Another man who looked a little obscene looked at Lin Jingjing with lustful eyes, "Women are taking good care of their children at home, and they are still showing up, but I'm afraid that they are not doing that kind of business, so it doesn't matter if the money comes easily." He smiled as he spoke, as if he had seen her plump body through Lin Jingjing's coat.
If it was before, Lin Jingjing might have passed with a casual smile for this kind of remarks, but today his rhetoric unexpectedly approached the truth of the relationship between her and Jian Zhanmo, Lin Jingjing turned around and glanced at Huzi, and soon someone came to take the two of them away, as for the result? That's not what Lin Jingjing needs to care about.
"Come on, let's keep playing, this is still weighing me down, a hundred silver dollars."
With the experience of the previous hand, there were no more blind followers around him, and after a while, the eyes that focused on Lin Jingjing scattered and went to play with himself.
Holding a lot of chips back and forth in the casino, Lin Jingjing felt a little bored, the essence of gambling is the excitement of not knowing whether to win or lose, but now there are a lot of chips in his hand, there is no point in winning, and there is no distress when he loses.
"I can't hang up and Jian Zhanmo rarely plays, whether you win or lose, it's your own family's money, it should be very boring." Lin Jingjing seems to have inadvertently discovered a truth.
Just as Lin Jingjing had nothing to do and was about to leave, he saw a table in the corner that seemed to be very lively.
"He's already pressed twenty in a row!" The person who spoke Lin Jingjing knew, his name was Lao Liu Tou, and he was also a veteran at the gambling table, he felt that he was a powerful person, Lin Jingjing suddenly had some curiosity.
Lin Jingjing squeezed to the front and stood beside Lao Liu, "Old Liu, what is the origin of this person?" Win 20 in a row. β
"Jingjing, you see this dealer is sweating on the top of his head, and I have never seen anyone win twenty in a row in Jane's casino." Lao Liu Tou said as he gave a part of the melon seeds in his hand to Lin Jingjing.
Lin Jingjing nodded, in the end, she was an old friend, and she knew her preferences very well, thinking of this, Lin Jingjing felt that she couldn't eat Lao Liutou's melon seeds for nothing, so she grabbed a few from the chips behind her and put them in Lao Liutou's hand, "Let me meet him." β
"This brother is a good craft, I want to meet you, I don't know what you think, brother." Originally, a winning streak was already attracting attention, but now there was a beautiful young girl, and now the entire casino was almost crowded.
The person on the stage was wearing a black robe, but there was an oil stain on the left and a stain on the right, if it was on the side of the road, it would not be disobedient to say that it was a beggar, I don't know how such a person got into the casino.
Unexpectedly, this man's voice was unexpectedly hearty, "Haha, the girl said that she was laughing, but I am a dignified seven-foot man, bullying a female doll, it is inevitable that I will be said that it is not authentic." β
Lin Jingjing didn't wait for him to finish, and went straight to the dealer's position, the dealer had long been unable to stand, and now seeing Lin Jingjing coming, he finally breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately stepped down without Lin Jingjing saying, causing a burst of boos.
"Brother, it seems worthwhile to be talked about for this plate of silver."
The black-clothed man glanced at the chips behind Lin Jingjing, there were at least a thousand taels of silver, which was much more exciting than the few copper plates he played, "In this way, Bai is better than obeying his fate if he is respectful." β
Soon, a new gambling game began, Lin Jingjing had first-class skills in playing dice, and she could shake out no matter how many points she wanted, so she came to the casino to earn money in the name of Jian Zhanmo's wife.
The first hand, Lin Jingjing.
The second, the big man in black.
Just played with a stick of incense without any danger, and just when Lin Jingjing was a little tired, finally, the dice in her hand began to get out of control.
Obviously controlling 233, but what was shaken out was 544, and after so many times, Lin Jingjing finally determined that the person opposite was out of the middle.
But this is the Jian family's casino, even if there are means, it should be the Jian family's advantage, how can it be broken by an outsider?
Regarding whether there is a secret that cannot be said about the Jian family's casino, Lin Jingjing really doesn't know, her position in the Jian family is embarrassing, and the silver can be spent casually, but she doesn't know anything about the casino.
However, one thing is certain, Jian Zhanmo's gambling skills must be stronger than her, and she doesn't know if she can see through this person's methods.
Lin Jingjing decided to continue to spend with him, and consumed it until Jian Zhanmo came back, after all, he also supplied a lot of silver dollars.
"Little girl, do you want to gamble again? You're running out of chips. The black-clothed man smiled proudly at Lin Jingjing, in just half an hour, he had already started nearly two thousand oceans, of course he was very satisfied.
"Don't be complacent too early, the first to win is the paper, and the last to win is the money." Lin Jingjing's tone was a little cold, like an outlaw gambler.
The man in black seemed to want Lin Jingjing's words, tidied up his sleeves, and shook the stopper again.
But at the moment when he straightened out his sleeves, Lin Jingjing suddenly saw a silver-white thing flashing, Lin Jingjing's thoughts were flying, could it be that the mystery was on that silver-white thing?
Lin Jingjing shook the dice again, but what happened this time was even more weird, Lin Jingjing pressed whatever he wanted, and every handful was Lin Jingjing's win, and Lin Jingjing really panicked now.
She is now engaged to Jian Zhanmo, and Jian Zhanmo's fiancΓ©e has won dozens of games in her own casino, and the reputation of Jian's casino will be ruined.
"Don't play, don't play, girl, I'm really convinced, I admit defeat!" The big man in black was about to leave with his hands clenched into fists, how could Lin Jingjing let him go like this, and a step stepped forward to stop him, "You wait, don't go yet, can you go to the back with me?" β
The onlookers were confused by Lin Jingjing's actions, if the man in black won the money, it would be understandable that he had this move, it was clear that Lin Jingjing was the winner, why didn't he let the loser go.
The big man in black stood motionless, his voice as loud as before, "Girl, I have already admitted defeat, why are you still aggressive." β
