Zhenfubao waved his hand and the warehouse was full of grain, and the whole family regretted it

Chapter 757 If you want to gamble, you have to put up the corresponding stakes

When Shen Tao heard the word "study", he quickly waved his hands and shook his head like a rattle:

"Oh no, no, no! My family keeps nagging me about studying, but I'm really not cut out for it.

I now practice Kung Fu with a martial arts master every day, and my punches and kicks are much more fluent than before!"

Just as he finished speaking, his eyes were suddenly drawn to a magnificent building not far away, and his eyes instantly lit up: "Hey? You actually have a gambling house here? There are quite a few people inside!"

Bai Wanwan followed his gaze, with a hint of complacency in her eyes:

"My place is different now than before. What you see here is actually a city within a city that I built by imitating the layout of the capital.

Businesses can be done during the day, and at night there are theaters and gambling houses, just like an entertainment city. Many people come here after hearing the news.

She paused, raised her hand and pointed to the river not far away:

"And look over there, the river has been dug through, connecting directly to the outside world. Did you come here by boat this time?

In the future, this will be a must-pass route, and more passenger ships will come here to dock and rest.

I plan to build this place into a military fortress, which will facilitate trade and serve as a gateway."

Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw a man in a brocade robe slamming the gambling table and glaring at the manager next to him with saliva flying.

The gambling house manager's face flushed, but he still suppressed his anger:

"Stop pretending here! You're trying to cheat.

Don't think we didn't see it, do you really think our gambling house is easy to bully?"

The man in brocade robe burst into laughter, his voice full of sarcasm:

“I think you just can’t afford to gamble!

You're deliberately making excuses to avoid paying me. If you don't pay me today, I'll tear down this lousy gambling house of yours!"

The noise made the customers in the gambling house stop playing and gather around to watch the fun.

Bai Wanwan walked forward with a smile, looked at the man in brocade robes and asked softly, "I heard you won 100,000 taels? Don't worry, I'll ask the steward to prepare it for you right now, but..."

Before she finished speaking, the man in brocade robes looked at her with a squint. Seeing that she was young and had a few half-grown children with her, his tone became even more disdainful:

"Who are you? You're more sensible than this manager.

But I have to tell you, I've won three days in a row at your gambling house, and your rules can't control me at all. You must give me the money today!"

Bai Wanwan still smiled and pointed at Wang Jingheng and Shen Tao beside her:

"Money is easy to talk about, but I happen to be free, so why don't we play a few games with you?

If you can still win, I will give you more than 100,000 taels."

The man in brocade robe couldn't help but sneer:

"Just a few of you young boys? Do you have that much money to bet with me?

Don’t lose and give me your underwear!"

Upon hearing this, Bai Wanwan simply raised her hand.

Wang Jingheng and Shen Tao understood immediately. Shen Tao was the quickest. He slammed dozens of banknotes onto the gambling table with a "slap" sound, raised an eyebrow and looked at the man in brocade robes: "Are these enough for me to play a few rounds with you?"

Wang Jingheng did not hesitate. He pulled out a large stack of banknotes from his sleeve and gently placed them next to Shen Tao's banknotes. His tone was calm but confident: "Add mine, and it should be enough."

Bai Wanwan took out a few large-denomination silver notes from her purse and added them on top. She said in a calm voice, "I'll also offer some prizes. Is this enough for you to bet on?"

The man in brocade robe looked at the thick pile of banknotes on the table and his eyes widened instantly.

A quick glance revealed that the amount was probably several million taels! He swallowed greedily and nodded quickly: "Enough! Enough, enough, enough! It's definitely enough!"

Bai Wanwan didn't respond. She turned around and sat on the stool next to the gambling table. She tapped the table lightly with her fingertips and said to the manager next to her, "Give him the 100,000 taels of silver he won."

The manager responded and immediately took out a stack of banknotes and handed it over.

After the man in brocade robes took the banknote, Bai Wanwan raised her eyes to look at him, her tone a little cold: "Our bet is enough, but what about yours? These 100,000 taels are not enough to bet with us."

The man in brocade robes' face froze, and then he suddenly straightened his neck, his tone full of arrogance:

"Do you know who I am? My father is a prefect of the third rank!

He's higher in rank than the prefect, and his family's treasury is overflowing with silver. How could he possibly need your gambling money?"

"Prefect?" Bai Wanwan shook her head, her eyes full of disbelief.

"I've never heard of a prefect who would raise a son like you who openly cheats in gambling houses and uses his status to bully others.

What's more, gambling houses only care about gold and silver, not official rank.

If you want to gamble, you have to put up a stake. You can't even put up a stake, right?"

The man in brocade robes couldn't hold back his anger, and immediately yelled at the servant behind him, "What are you standing there for? Hurry up and take out all the money I brought with me! Don't let this little girl look down on you!"

The servant did not dare to delay and hurriedly took out stacks of banknotes from his box, along with several purses filled with small change, and placed them all on the table.

When everyone got closer to take a look, they were surprised that the man actually brought quite a lot of money. When they counted it up, it was actually over one million taels!

Bai Wanwan's smile remained unchanged: "Now that the prizes are all settled, how do you want to bet?"

Hearing this, the man in brocade robe raised his eyebrows proudly and pointed to the dice cup on the corner of the table:

"Of course it's dice! It's simple and straightforward.

You're just a little brat, you can't even hold the dice cup steady, let alone shake out a good number, right?"

Shen Tao next to him couldn't help laughing and almost burst out laughing. He quickly raised his hand to cover his mouth, but his shoulders were still shaking.

But he knew that Bai Wanwan's ability to manipulate these things was even better than that of the veterans who had been hanging around in gambling houses for years.

Bai Wanwan ignored the brocade-robed man's ridicule and nodded calmly: "Let's play dice. Then, let my people roll the dice later. Is that okay with you?"

The man in brocade robes' face darkened instantly, and he shook his head without thinking:

"That won't do! Who knows if you guys will tamper with the dice?

My people must do the shaking, that’s the only way it’s fair!”

Seeing this, the man in brocade robe waved his hand and shouted behind him: "Wu San, come here!"

A lean man immediately stepped forward, bowed to Zhou Shao, then turned to Bai Wanwan and her group, bowed, and said with a flattering smile, "I am Wu San. Today, I will roll the dice for you. I will ensure that the rules are followed."

Seeing this, the gambling house manager lowered his voice and said, "Miss, it's Wu San! He's the one who cheated in the gambling house!"

Bai Wanwan shook her head and signaled the manager to leave with her eyes.

Soon, Wu San stood next to the gambling table with a dice cup in his hand. The gamblers who were watching the fun gathered around him and started talking in a flurry.

"Wow! Today is interesting. Young Master Zhou actually gambles with such a young child? Isn't this bullying!" A gambler with a goatee smiled and shook his head.

A man in shorts next to him echoed, his voice deliberately raised:

"That's right! I see this little girl is probably still breastfeeding. How could she possibly win over Master Zhou?

In my opinion, this round is a sure win for Master Zhou! "
