Chapter 107: Game within game
After hearing this, Tian Xuelin thought about it carefully. This token was the general's personal belonging. This token is unique in the army, otherwise there might be some tricks to sneak in.
It doesn't matter, just lie back if you lie. Anyway, as long as you continue playing, you will definitely win back the lost money. Then the token will follow you back.
"Okay, then let me listen to you. This token is pressed on you. You can keep it carefully for me to keep it, otherwise I will lead someone to smash your casino!"
The shopkeeper's eyes narrowed together, and he kept assured when he heard this.
"General, don't worry, this is your token. Even if you give the villain a hundred courage, the villain will not dare to lose it to you. The little one promises you that even if the Yuan people are invading into the city,
I don’t want my wife and children, and I have to take your token away from General!”
After the shopkeeper said that, he got up and came behind him, gently knocked on the bookshelf behind him, and then a scene that made Tian Xuelin dumbfounded appeared, and the bookshelf actually moved away automatically.
The bookshelf moved away and there was a new room. The shopkeeper didn't go in. Naturally, someone came out with a tray inside. The shopkeeper opened the tray and placed it on it with fifty taels of silver.
The shopkeeper introduced to Tian Xuelin: "Sir, this fifty taels of silver is the silver lent to you, and your token will be bet with the villain. If you win back with the principal and interest tonight, this token will be
Immediately return it as it is.”
Tian Xuelin took the pallet and thought about it. The fifty taels of silver were too much and could not be carried with him, so he only brought ten taels of silver.
"The remaining forty taels of silver will be kept here. Don't let me move it. I will come here tomorrow morning!"
The shopkeeper smiled and said, "Don't worry, even if your small arm is broken, you will never let your money be reduced by one or two. If it is less, you don't need to say that the money will be offset immediately."
Tian Xuelin nodded with satisfaction: "This is almost the same!"
Tian Xuelin walked downstairs with ten taels of silver in his arms. After Tian Xuelin left, the bookshelf moved away and a person came out. This person was none other than Cao Qinghe, the chief of the Han Palace.
Cao Qinghe took the token handed over by the shopkeeper, put it in his hand and weighed it. He snorted coldly and said, "Shameless thing! As a general, he can also take it out as a thing?"
The shopkeeper changed his face and had a somewhat obscene and flattering smile just now, and stood beside him with a serious expression.
"Sir, Tian Xuelin dares to give it to others casually, let alone his identity token."
Cao Qinghe snorted coldly and threw the token on the table.
"I have been studying for several days and nights, but I am afraid that he will not take the bait. If I had known this guy was so stupid, why would I have put such a lot of effort into it?"
"Have the tiger talisman been prepared?"
The shopkeeper bowed and said, "Sir, although the tiger talisman is not very well-made, it is made by the court, and some details are still difficult to control, and it has to be made old, and it can be finished before tomorrow morning.
”
"Tomorrow morning?" Cao Qinghe changed his past gentleness and kindness in front of Zhu Song, and was quite majestic at this moment: "This is a head-losing thing. Is it done before tomorrow morning? Don't you plan to die?"
"Before he leaves tomorrow morning, this tiger talisman must be handed over to Liu He!"
The shopkeeper immediately promised: "Yes, the tiger talisman will be delivered before the hour of Mao!"
...
Tian Xuelin did not do what he said. He said that he would come to get the forty taels of silver again the morning, but that night, he didn't know how many trips the upstairs were going, until he took away the last little silver and lost it. Tian Xuelin was completely stupid.
It's right.
Tian Xuelin knew that he must have fallen into a trap, otherwise how could he lose so miserably. He rushed upstairs to try to settle the score with the shopkeeper, but found that there was no one upstairs.
"Damn, I dare to lie to me. I ran away after lie to me, right? People come, I won't come out again! I am going to start smashing things!"
Tian Xuelin said as he ran to the bookshelf and knocked it out, and then used all his strength to push it. He found that the thing was not moving at all, as if it was made by some mechanism.
Just when he was at a loss and was about to go downstairs to find a waiter to ask, suddenly, the bookshelf behind him suddenly opened.
Tian Xuelin looked at the room that suddenly came out in front of him and the long corridor, and hesitated for a moment. After all, he couldn't help but walk in.
After he walked in, he realized that there was a man he had seen sitting in the room.
"Changshi Cao? I never expected that Cao Changshi was actually doing casino business behind his back?"
Cao Qinghe glanced at Tian Xuelin and then said, "I never expected that Lord Tian would become addicted to gambling. For gambling, can he even bet on his own close waist card?"
Tian Xuelin thought about it carefully and found that Cao Qinghe was in this room. The fifty taels of silver just now were also given out from this room. Cao Qinghe could not have known that he was here to play. All this was a game.
"This is a trap, you guys are setting me up!"
Cao Qinghe smiled slightly, put down the brush in his hand, and dried the memorial in front of him.
"Mr. Tian, although I open a casino privately, my official rank is only a fifth rank. According to the Ming Dynasty, officials below the fourth rank can do business, and officials above the fourth rank cannot do business. Even if I run a casino, I
The origin of each silver is very clear.”
"Compared to me, Lord Tian, you are different. The general mortgaged his personal waist card. Although this crime is not serious, you can't escape the third level of the time."
"In addition, I heard from Lord Li that you are not allowed to leave the military camp without authorization. If you leave the military camp without authorization, then you will disobey the military order. I don't need to say how to punish the military order, right?"
Tian Xuelin knew that he was taken by Cao Qinghe.
"Tell me, what are you going to do? Since I have dug such a big hole for me, I must have something to do."
Cao Qinghe smiled slightly and made a gesture of asking him to sit down.
Tian Xuelin pretended to be opposite Cao Qinghe.
Cao Qinghe changed the direction of the memorial in front of him and handed it to Tian Xuelin.
"Mr. Tian, this memorial was written by this official just now. It would be fine if Mr. Tian is unwilling to cooperate with this official. I will then order eight hundred miles to send it to the capital to see how Your Majesty will punish you."
Tian Xuelin looked at the memorial, and at this moment he remembered a solution. Cao Qinghe was a civil servant, he was a military general, and he beat him alone without breathing. Why should he be afraid of him?
Cao Qinghe also saw the hostility in Tian Xuelin's eyes.
