Making you a son-in-law is not about making you conquer the world.

Chapter 160 If you won't kneel, then you shouldn't be doing this job.

Wang Laoqian's face turned ashen, and his body trembled like a leaf. He stumbled and fell under the table, refusing to activate his Gu.

"What a waste, getting scared like this." Qian Duoduo walked over aggressively and immediately activated the Gu, completely unaware that Wang Laoqian was constantly tugging at his trouser leg.

Although Qian Duoduo's gambling skills were not as good as Wang Laoqian's, he was still quite famous. He naturally knew that there was no such thing as 45 points, and thought that Wang Laoqian was under pressure from the city lord's mansion and dared not use the Gu.

However, when the three dice were revealed, everyone was stunned, craning their necks to count the numbers on them.

Qian Duoduo was also taken aback; he was certain he had never seen anything like it before.

Each of the three dice had a corner cut off and was placed at an angle in the dice cup, with several faces facing upwards at the same time.

"How many points is this exactly?" Qian Duoduo raised the question on everyone's mind. To be honest, he didn't know how to count it either, and the number of points was different when viewed from different directions.

"Mr. Qian, if I'm not mistaken, only heads up are valid. In other words, you have to look down from directly above the die to see exactly how many heads there are!" Lin Ping said confidently, how could he not solve a simple math problem?

A die is a regular hexahedron, and when viewed from above, you can see a maximum of three faces, meaning that the numbers on three faces of each die are valid.

Those who were nearby craned their necks to look down and, sure enough, saw the same number of dots. They started counting on their fingers.

"No need to count anymore, it's forty-five points!"

Wang Laoqian, lying on the ground, said weakly.

It has to be said that Wang Laoqian's gambling skills were simply divine. He could not only make the three dice stand up, but also make the three largest faces face up, which is four, five, and six. Each die has fifteen points, and the three dice add up to exactly forty-five points.

"It really is forty-five points!"

The gambler who counted the fastest shouted out excitedly, having learned something new.

Qian Duoduo's legs went weak, and he stumbled and sat on the ground. His soul and spirit had long since vanished, leaving him like a walking corpse.

This is not only about the City Lord's Mansion paying off its debts, but it also means that Lin Ping's gambling skills have surpassed those of Wang Laoqian, and he will have no problem winning as much silver as he wants in the future.

To be honest, 150,000 taels of silver is nothing to Jin Manlou; it's at most half a year's profit for the gambling den. But if the gambling den closes down, the losses will multiply.

Moreover, Qian Duoduo is just Jin Manlou's top dog in Jiangcheng Prefecture. To the headquarters, he's nothing. His career is likely to end here, and he'll be kicked out without even a retirement fund.

"Boss Qian, it seems I've won this round. The IOU I signed that day should be destroyed!" Lin Ping said coldly. Naturally, he wanted to make Qian Duoduo suffer. Who told this guy to dare to go against the City Lord's Mansion and the god-like Master Ping? Even if he was made to die, it wouldn't be unjust!

Qian Duoduo slumped against the table like a dead pig, regretting going to cause trouble for the city lord's mansion, and even more regretting not listening to Tian Duoduo's advice. Now he had finally driven himself to a dead end.

After the results were announced, the entire gambling den erupted in cheers. Except for Qian Duoduo and Wang Laoqian, who collapsed to the ground as if they had lost their souls, all the gamblers shouted loudly, "God of Gamblers is mighty! God of Gamblers is mighty!"

In this way, Lin Ping firmly established himself as the God of Gamblers, becoming a living god in the hearts of all gamblers.

"God of Gamblers, please accept my bow!" A man who was so thin he looked like a dried-up dried man knelt on the ground and kept kowtowing. Judging from his physique, he had lost money at the gambling den and would never let go of Lin Ping, his powerful ally.

Before Lin Ping could refuse, he ordered dozens of gamblers to kneel on the ground and kowtow, all hoping to receive Lin Ping's true teachings.

Even if you only learn the basics, you could probably sweep through any ordinary gambling den and win back your lost money with ease.

Upon seeing this, Lin Ping's eyes flashed, and he immediately became serious, saying loudly, "I have already stated that I will not accept anyone who is not a Juren (a successful candidate in the imperial examinations). If you sincerely wish to become my disciples, go home and study diligently. Come to the City Lord's Mansion to find me after you have passed the Juren examinations!"

Lin Ping knew that once you entered the gambling den, it was like falling into a deep sea, and it was harder than climbing to heaven to persuade a prodigal son to turn back. That's why they would do anything to win money, including taking the imperial examination to become a disciple.

The previous vivid example is the best proof.

Upon hearing this, the crowd exchanged bewildered glances, their eyes gleaming with excitement. Without warning, they scattered like birds, frantically rushing out of the gambling den, wishing they could buy several copies of the Four Books and Five Classics along the way, ideally memorizing them all before returning home.

Jiang Yunying stood there, her mind filled with countless thoughts. She knew how stubborn these gamblers were, and she had even seen the city lord shake his head with a sigh.

Everyone in Jiangcheng Prefecture is her subject. Jiang Yunying does not want anyone to go astray. If it weren't for her busy military affairs, she would love to come into the city every day to educate the people.

Who would have thought that these gamblers she couldn't let go of would actually reform themselves because of a single sentence from Lin Ping?

They even erected a facade that required one to pass the imperial examinations!

Teaching people to be good is a meritorious deed. Jiang Yunying suddenly felt that there was a golden light around Lin Ping, which seemed out of place with his playboy attitude.

"My husband, you have done a great service to Jiangcheng Prefecture. I thank you on behalf of my father!"

Jiang Yunying actually walked up to Lin Ping and bowed.

Lin Ping was also stunned. This was the first time Jiang Yunying had been so serious and earnest in front of him. So he walked up to Jiang Yunying and said softly, "Wife..."

???

Jiang Yunying raised her head in confusion, hoping that Lin Ping would say something sensible.

This time, Lin Ping didn't spoil the mood with inappropriate words, but instead gave her a deep kiss on the back of her hand.

Jiang Yunying was stunned. She didn't expect Lin Ping to be so audacious. Instead of feeling angry, she felt a little pleased. Her cheeks turned bright red with embarrassment.

Really fragrant!

Lin Ping said smugly.

After speaking, Lin Ping hurriedly took a big step back, fearing that Jiang Yunying's forty-meter-long broadsword would chop him in half.

Jiang Yunying was furious, her jade hand had already transformed into a palm blade, and if it weren't for the fact that she hadn't figured out the important matter, she would have used a special technique like "Stone-Shattering Palm".

Sensing Jiang Yunying's anger, Lin Ping immediately walked up to Qian Duoduo in an attempt to change the subject, and said coldly, "Boss Qian, where's the IOU?"

"An IOU? Hahaha!"

Qian Duoduo suddenly burst into a fit of madness, pointed at Lin Ping, and said coldly, "The IOU has already been given to the Prefect. The City Lord's Mansion can wait to repay the money!"

"Good, very good! Boss Qian's work is indeed satisfactory!" Lin Ping's facial muscles began to twitch, and a cold light shone in his eyes. He had already marked Qian Duoduo's name with an X in his mind, and even deleted the entire Jinmanlou from his list.

In Lin Ping's eyes, an enemy is an enemy, regardless of strength. As long as you anger him, he will kill you all, no matter how powerful Jin Manlou is.

"Oh no!" Tian Duoduo, who was secretly observing, was startled. Naturally, she was afraid of Lin Ping's gaze. She stumbled in from outside the door and shouted at the top of her lungs, "My lord, please calm down! Please calm down!"

Lin Ping recognized Tian Duoduo's voice, glanced back, and said disdainfully, "So it's Boss Tian. May I ask what brings you here?"

Tian Duoduo broke out in a cold sweat again, naturally sensing Lin Ping's anger. He quickly took out a piece of Xuan paper from his pocket, cupped his hands and bowed, saying, "This is the IOU from the City Lord's Mansion. Please take a look, Your Highness."

Lin Ping glanced at the document and noticed the seal of the City Lord's Mansion on it, so it was probably genuine. However, he still asked sarcastically, "What does Boss Tian mean by this? Are you trying to threaten the City Lord's Mansion with this document?"

Qian Duoduo just said that he had sent his financial straits to the government office, and now Tian Duoduo is showing them off again, which is easy to be misunderstood.

Tian Duoduo immediately turned green with fright, frantically tore the rags to pieces, and even stomped on the ground twice in anger, before frantically saying with a fawning smile, "The rags have been destroyed, please calm down, Your Highness."

"Oh? Is Boss Tian intending to reconcile with the City Lord's Mansion?"

Lin Ping said in a sarcastic tone, clearly intending to make things difficult for the other party.

Tian Duoduo's heart skipped a beat, knowing that Lin Ping wouldn't let Jin Manlou off so easily. He could only keep offering a fawning smile: "Jin Manlou and the City Lord's Mansion are old customers. It was all Qian Duoduo's fault for causing trouble and offending the Prince Consort. Please calm down."

"I see..." Lin Ping nodded in satisfaction, then revealed a sinister look: "Since Qian Duoduo has made a mistake, how does Boss Tian plan to punish him?"

"This Lin Ping is indeed a vengeful person..." Tian Duoduo shuddered, feeling worried for Qian Duoduo, and could only smile and say, "I'll leave it to the Prince Consort to do as he pleases!"

"That's not quite right. This is Jin Manlou's private matter. How can the City Lord's Mansion interfere?"

Lin Ping quickly waved his hand, deliberately distancing himself from the situation.

Just as Tian Duoduo breathed a sigh of relief, Lin Ping continued, "Boss Qian is only thinking of Jin Manlou's best interests, so let's skip the punishment... However, I, Lin Ping, am still a little angry. If Boss Qian can kneel down and kowtow and satisfy me, this gambling den can barely continue to operate."

Kneeling and kowtowing?

Everyone was taken aback.

Kneeling openly to someone is extremely humiliating, especially since Qian Duoduo is a prominent figure in Jiangcheng Prefecture. Besides, whether or not Lin Ping is satisfied is up to him, and who knows when this kneeling will take place.

Qian Duoduo glared at Lin Ping through gritted teeth, wishing she could tear him to pieces with her bare hands, so how could she possibly kneel before him?

"Wife, let's go. We'll come back tomorrow and try to win this month's pay!"

Lin Ping said it casually.

Now, Jiang Yunying and Lin Ping have developed a considerable understanding, and she even took his hand and strode out of the gambling den.

Win the military pay? Tian Duoduo's heart pounded. The military pay for 10,000 private soldiers was nearly 100,000 taels of silver. This was going to skin Jin Manlou alive!

"Kneel down! Kneel! Until the Prince Consort is satisfied!" Tian Duoduo roared angrily at Qian Duoduo, even wanting to kill him. If he hadn't ignored advice and repeatedly caused trouble for the City Lord's Mansion, Jin Manlou wouldn't have ended up in such a state.

Qian Duoduo was a tough nut to crack; she turned her head away and refused to look at Lin Ping.

Tian Duoduo was furious and said coldly, "If you can't satisfy the Prince Consort, then pack your bags and get out!"

Upon hearing this, Qian Duoduo panicked and hurriedly knelt on the ground, kowtowing repeatedly like a woodpecker pecking at food.
