Chapter 96: Entering Huaicheng Casino for the First Time
Early the next morning, Ye Qingge first went to the place where Nangong Yichen gave the contact address, and found the person in charge, Gao Hai, and his sister Gao Yang.
Gao Hai is about the same age as Fan Jingxiang, and Gao Yang is a little younger than Ye Qingge. The two brothers and sisters themselves come from merchant families, but after a natural disaster, the place where they lived was hit by a flood, and all their families were killed. It happened to be Nangong Yichen at that time
When he went to Pingshuiyan, he rescued the two brothers and brought them to the capital. Later, he helped Nangong Yichen manage the shop.
Gao Hai is also a person who knows business very well. Many of his ideas coincide with Ye Qingge's. He handles the location selection and ordering all by himself. Ye Qingge only needs to provide methods.
Because Gao Hai was from Nangong Yichen, Ye Qingge was relieved to keep the various production methods. As for the management, he left all the management to the Gao Hai brothers and sisters, and the opening of Hua Chaofang was scheduled for September.
The sixth day of the lunar month.
After talking to Gao Hai, Ye Qingge went to Huaicheng Casino alone in disguise.
The day before yesterday, she told Yuan Xia to ask about the letter openly, not only because Huaicheng Gambling House knew that they wanted to investigate Ma Qing, but more importantly, to protect Yuan Xia's family.
If Ma Qing was collecting intelligence at the Fuguo Palace and secretly colluding with the thieves, he got the instructions from the Huaicheng Gambling House. Then someone in the Huaicheng Gambling House must be watching the Fuguo Palace at this moment. If Yuan Xia investigates privately, he will not be able to escape.
The informants of Huaicheng Gambling House are also being plotted secretly.
If they borrow a few letters to go to Huaicheng Gambling House and tell everyone that what happened to Duke Fuguo's family is related to them, then they will not dare to act rashly, thus reducing the risk of secrets.
However, this only gave the people behind Huaicheng Gambling House some scruples, and could not eliminate the hidden dangers. However, Yuan Xia would definitely not be able to come forward again, and she would have to do this secret investigation by herself.
Today, Ye Qingge took a hundred taels of silver with her when she went out. Since she was going to a gambling house, she must have fun in the gambling house first.
...
“Come on, come on, bet big, bet small, buy it and let it go!
Before Ye Qingge stepped into the gambling house, there were waves of shouts.
Looking up, it turns out that this Huaicheng Gambling House is indeed the largest gambling house in Beijing. The entire building has three floors, even the signboard is gilded, and there is an endless stream of people coming in and out.
Seeing Ye Qingge inspecting the gambling house, the two boys at the door immediately stepped forward and said:
"Is this young man here to play in the gambling house? Come inside and take a look. There are all kinds of games including odd and even, dice, four-door treasures, Pai Gow, Fantan, and Liubo. There are only things you can't think of. There is no such thing as our gambling house.
If you can't open it, I promise you will have a lot of fun." The boy said as he greeted Ye Qingge to come in.
Ye Qingge followed the boy's greeting and followed him in.
After entering the gambling house, Ye Qingge did not let the boy continue to follow him, but went to throw the dice himself. He played two games with the boy first, and he lost and won.
But after a while, someone came over and said, "Young master, I think this is your first time here. Do you want to come with me and I will teach you?"
"Well... forget it, I want to play by myself." Ye Qingge said.
"Young Master, you don't trust me? I'm a regular visitor here. Go and ask, who doesn't know my name, Ma San? I win nine out of ten bets. Follow me and I guarantee you will make money." Ma San Ge
He rubbed his neck and said.
"You really know how to play?" Ye Qingge pretended to be doubtful.
"No, don't worry!" Ma San assured, patting his chest.
Ye Qingge looked at Ma San and couldn't help but smile. Ma San looked like a shill at first sight. He could win nine out of ten bets. He must have colluded with the people in Huaicheng Gambling House. But it happened to be that she needed this.
People pave the way for her.
Seeing Ye Qingge's convinced look, Ma San immediately said: "Young Master, look, I'll teach you, this time we bet big, and I guarantee you will win!"
Ma San said loudly and glanced at the man who rolled the dice. The man immediately understood and lowered his head and made a gesture.
Under Ma San's leadership, Ye Qingge won several games in a row, and Ye Qingge also revealed intentionally or unintentionally that his family had a great business and he was a well-known playboy.
Soon, Ma San encouraged Ye Qingge to play in the private room on the second floor. The private rooms were divided into three categories: heaven, earth and people. Ye Qingge was taken to the herringbone private room, and the highest level was the Tianzihao private room.
After entering the private room, the people inside were no longer the civilian players on the first floor. Most of the people here were businessmen and dudes. Ye Qingge was taken into one of the private rooms.
At first, he won several games in a row under Ma San's guidance. Later, Ma San used the excuse of letting Ye Qingge teach himself and let Ye Qingge choose by himself. After playing two games, he lost, and Ye Qingge deliberately became discouraged and stopped playing.
But Ma San said two more good words, encouraging Ye Qingge to play the big one, and he was guaranteed to win it back.
After Ye Qingge took out all the money he had won and bet on the queen, Ma San excused himself to have a stomachache and went out first. Before going out, he winked at the man who rolled the dice.
Just when the waiter opened the dice cup, Ye Qingge clearly saw the look of pride in the waiter's eyes, but soon, the waiter stopped laughing because the dice, which were originally big, were now all decimals.
However, the guys here are people who have seen the world after all. They were just surprised for a moment and quickly adjusted their emotions, but still looked at Ye Qingge with an unpredictable expression.
"Oh, this young master has great luck today. He wins again! The money he won this time is several times what he bet!" someone in the crowd couldn't help but say.
"What the hell, it's just a blind cat encountering a dead mouse."
Ye Qingge smiled while talking.
Seeing Ye Qingge's proud look, the two waiters next to him exchanged glances, and one of the waiters immediately stepped forward and said:
"Sir, I think you are very lucky today. Do you want to follow me to another place and try again?"
"Oh, okay! Lead the way!" Ye Qingge replied simply, pretending to be proud.
When the waiter saw this, he also laughed secretly and lamented that Ye Qingge was young after all and was a playboy who had never seen the world.
But the clerk never expected that the next scene directly refreshed his three views. Ye Qingge won directly from the Herringbone Room to the Tianzi Room.
Of course this is not luck, but skill.
Ye Qingge could tell from the first time he started playing that the dice used in Huaicheng Casino were mercury dice.
Mainly by manipulating the inside of the dice, leaving grooves inside to hold mercury. As long as you pay attention to technique when throwing, you can transfer the mercury from one groove to another, thereby changing the probability of a certain point appearing.
To get the points you want, just put the desired points face up and wait for a few seconds, wait for the mercury to settle, and then roll the dice.
But the mercury dice trick was broken when she was on a mission in her previous life. She had a pinhole camera in her hand, which was placed in the right place when she entered the door. She only had to observe the man's hands when he was throwing dice.
You can know the last number of points by looking at the action of staying and the number of points you stay.
Although this method is not 100% accurate, Ye Qingge was very lucky today and could see them all with the help of the camera, so it was no coincidence that he won.
Seeing that the fun was almost over, Ye Qingge immediately stood up and wanted to leave, but to her surprise, no one stopped her and just let her leave in a big way.
