Chapter 13 The legendary "Three British Bureau"

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    During the cleaning that night, Zhao Ran took out three simple masks, gave one to Jiao Tan and Zhou Huai, and demonstrated wearing it on his nose.  With the masks, the working atmosphere of the sweeper immediately changed. Most of the pungent fishy and disgusting smells were covered, and the three of them became obviously much more relaxed when doing their work.

    Zhao Ran's favorability in the hearts of Jiao Tan and Zhou Huai has increased significantly. Even Zhou Huai, who usually talks less, also chatted a few more words with Zhao Ran.  Jiao Tan even invited Zhao Ran to participate in tonight's card game with them.

    Zhao Ran said that he didn¡¯t know Pai Gow and didn¡¯t have much money, so he didn¡¯t want to go.

    Jiao Tan said, brother, it doesn¡¯t matter if you don¡¯t understand, but you can join in the fun.  You must know that this is the biggest card game in Wuji Academy this year. It is called the "Three Heroes Game". It would be a pity not to experience it.

    Zhao Ran asked curiously what is the "Three British Bureau"?

    Jiao Tan kept talking, saying that this "Three Heroes Game", as the name suggests, is a game of three card table talents.  One is Zhang Ze from the vegetable room, one is Jin Jiu from the water room, and the other one is naturally Guan Er from the clean room.  These three are recognized as gambling masters in Wuji Academy, and their card playing skills are very impressive!

    Speaking of which, a month ago, the three of them finally sat down to play cards together. The excitement was really memorable, and the huge jackpot was also shocking.  That time Guan Er was superior in skill and swept away all the winnings on the table with an indisputable advantage.

    Last month, Jin Jiu and Zhang Ze, who refused to admit defeat, invited a fight again, and Guan Er of course accepted the invitation.  This time, Guan Er continued to defeat powerful enemies and defeated Jin Jiu and Zhang Ze until their crotches were taken off, becoming a good talk in Wuji Academy.  Speaking of this, Jiao Tan sighed: "Although Guan Er is too domineering, when it comes to Pai Gow, it is really hard to believe! Not to mention us Huoju miscellaneous cultivators, even many Taoist priests came to watch the battle."

    Jiao Tan said: "This is the third game of the 'Three Heroes Game'. It is said that Jin Jiu and Zhang Ze raised huge sums of money and vowed to avenge their losses in the first two games. This is a grand event, and Brother Zhao must attend it."  Yes! Besides, it doesn¡¯t matter if you don¡¯t know how to play Pai Gow. You can participate in the betting game, which is much simpler!¡±

    Zhao Ran asked what the betting game was, and Jiao Tan explained that in the 'Three Heroes Game', only Jin Jiu, Zhang Ze and Guan Er were on the card table, and they fought until there was only one person left on the card table.  Others are not allowed to take cards, but they can bet on the side, that is, in each round of cards, they only bet on the banker or the player, and it does not matter whether they know how to play cards.

    Zhao Ran asked, who do you two brothers plan to take prisoner?

    Jiao Tan said that it was natural to bet on Guan 2. Guan 2 not only has superb card skills, but also good luck. Especially the latter, which is the most important winning factor in gambling.  Guan Er has been very lucky these days, and he is definitely killing gods and Buddhas!

    Jiao Tan and Zhou Huai were beaming at the side, and Zhao Ran couldn't help but feel excited.  Taking advantage of this opportunity to make extra money is a good thing.

    But what should Zhao Ran do if he has no money?  Zhou Huai said, Brother Zhao has no money. Brother Jiao and I will each lend you one tael of silver. Brother, don¡¯t take it too little. Brother Jiao and I have lost miserably in the past few days. We all hope that we can win it back this time, but  Keep more capital.

    Zhao Ran kept saying that no matter whether he won or lost, he would return 50% of the profit.  Zhou Huai and Jiao Tan didn't take the interest seriously. They just said, Brother Zhao, just take it and play with it. You can pay it back when you have the money. Everything is easy to say.

    Zhao Ran sighed in his heart, saying that he had tried every means to enter the Taoist sect, and it was definitely the right decision.  Look at these two people in front of you. They only spend a few taels of silver without blinking an eye. Compared with the fourth uncle who only thinks about his own poor three acres of land, it is really a world of difference.  There is an old saying in the past life that is so true. The environment determines the success or failure of life. If you are surrounded by such rich and powerful people, no matter how bad you are, how bad can you be?

    That night's "Three Heroes Bureau" was held directly in the dining hall. Zhao Ran went a little late on purpose. He was a child who grew up under the red flag and had never turned this corner. He was always worried whether the senior officials of Wujiyuan would  This card game was shut down overnight.  When the card game started and the restaurant gradually became crowded, it was confirmed that in this world, gathering people to gamble is really okay.

    The big round table in the middle of the dining hall is the card table for tonight's "Three Heroes Game".  The wretched man and the effeminate man that Zhao Ran saw in the garden last night were sitting at the table, together with Guan Er, and the three of them each occupied a corner. There were piles of gold and silver in front of each of them, which made Zhao Ran feel dizzy.

    On the left and right sides of the round table, there is a long square table on each side. There are stacks of copper coins on the left square table, and an ingot of silver on the right square table.  Zhao Ran observed for a while and already understood that the two square tables were what Jiao Tan called betting tables, that is, the tables for players who only bet on the banker and player. The betting tables were divided into large tables and small tables. The big table directly placed money, and the small table  Taiwan bets copper coins, taking care of gamblers with different wealth.

    Hundreds of Taoists wearing Taoist robesScholars and laymen gathered around the three gambling tables and roared wildly, and the atmosphere was extremely lively.  But despite the commotion, the entire process of placing bets and collecting money was orderly and flawless.  Zhao Ran noticed that there was a young man in green clothes and short hair standing in front of the three tables. He did not look like a Taoist priest or layman from Wujiyuan.  The three boys were busy on the stage. After a while, Zhao Ran heard that they were croupiers invited from the Guyang County Casino down the mountain.

    Jiao Tan glanced at Zhao Ran in the crowd, squeezed to his side, and said with excitement: "Hurry up and bet, don't stand still, you will win a lot less if you wait a little longer!"

    Zhao Ran asked what was going on, and Jiao Tan said with a bright face: "Of course it's Guan Ersheng, he has won seven games in a row! Zhou Huai and I have won back the capital we lost a few days ago!"

    Zhao Ran thanked Jiao Tan for the reminder, but he wanted to see it again. After all, the scene he peeped last night was not a dream.  He stood on tiptoe behind the crowd to observe the card table, and when he saw Guan Er playing out the cards in his hand, he shouted triumphantly: "The floor bar matches the plum blossom, kill!"

    There was a burst of exclamation in the crowd, and the Taoist priests discussed enthusiastically: "Eight consecutive kills! Eight consecutive kills!" A few people screamed with mournful faces: "How is it possible?"

    Jin Jiu and Zhang Ze remained calm, and the dealer pushed the silver lock on the table in front of Guan Er. Their expressions were quite calm, not even a hint of anxiety.

    Zhao Ran guessed that maybe the two of them had not yet touched the two cards with traps, or maybe it was the strategy that the two of them had discussed - losing first and then winning, which not only seemed fair, but also could induce the other party to invest more money.  For example, now Guan Er can win eight games in a row. In the future, if Jin Jiu and Zhang Ze win eighteen games in a row, no one can say anything.

    Wanting to understand this, Zhao Ran came to the small betting table, exchanged the borrowed two taels of silver into twenty coins, one hundred coins for each coin, and tried to place a bet.

    Amid the crazy shouts of the Taoist priests, Guan Er continued to perform a good show of consecutive killings. Zhao Ran also won some, but he only dared to bet a small amount when betting, and Guan Er's odds were low (most people  They are all following the pressure of Guan 2), so they don¡¯t earn much.

    Soon, Jin Jiu and Zhang Ze lost all the gold and silver coins on their tables, and Guan Er had a pile in front of his desk, which looked like five or six hundred taels.

    Zhao Ran began to stare closely at Jin Jiu and Zhang Ze. He estimated that these two people had almost finished their drama.

    Sure enough, Jin Jiu and Zhang Ze each opened a small wooden box and took out a stack of banknotes.

    "Fifty taels!" Jin Jiu took out a silver note and pushed it to the center of the table. Zhang Ze followed suit.  Guan Er laughed loudly, pointed out more than ten gold coins without any care, and pushed them forward.

    The whole hall was completely silent, except for others. The stakes in this game had reached a level that made people's hearts beat uncontrollably.

    Zhao Ran quickly changed the money into silver coins, a total of three small taels, and rushed to the edge of the stage.  Guan Er has been playing the game for twelve consecutive games, while Jin Jiu and Zhang Ze have been fighting on the leisure side.  Zhao Ran thought for a while, but didn't dare to be too big, so he threw a silver coin on the player's side and placed a bet or two.

    As soon as the cards were played in this round, Zhao Ran was a little surprised by the result. Guan Er once again killed two opponents for thirteen consecutive rounds!  Zhao Ran began to beat his head, secretly cursing Jin Jiu and Zhang Ze, and at the same time silently urging these two: Hurry up and do it!

    Although he knew that there was a problem with tonight's card game, Zhao Ran didn't know when it would change. He thought about it for a moment and once again bet a silver coin on the player's side. He made up his mind that if it happened again this time,  If you lose, stop betting and wait until the situation changes.

    However, Jin Jiu and Jang Song-taek once again took out a silver note and put it on the table, causing the whole room to exclaim: "One hundred taels!"
