In the Southern Song Dynasty, I competed with Mongolia for the world

Chapter 74 Happy Opening (fourth update)

In the next ten days or so, Zhao Yurui signed contracts with 28 households of various craftsmen in Lin'an City, and the monthly expenses reached an astonishing 300 yuan. If he hadn't made a lot of money in front of him, he would almost not be able to run Wei Wangfu.

On this day, the guard Mao Tong brought four people, just arrived at the gate of the palace, ready to change shifts, but none of them could be seen.

Ashamed and angry, he knocked on the door a few times, and a voice came from inside: "Here we come."

The door of King Yi's mansion opened, revealing the head of a relative.

"Damn it, there's no one at the door, are you playing crazy?" Mao Tong cursed and rushed in with others.

There used to be a pavilion a dozen steps away from the corridor behind the main gate of the palace. There was a stone table in the pavilion, but now it has been dismantled and a billiard table has been installed.

The four people guarding the gate are all in front of the pool table, and someone is still calling: "Play number 4, number 4 first."

"Officer Mao." Seeing Officer Mao coming in, all the soldiers quickly threw away their sticks.

"Don't you need to be on duty? Are you special?" Mao Tong rushed over and scolded: "King Yi is so kind to us, don't you need to guard the gate? What if there is something missing in the Wangfu's house? Are you right King Yi?"

Crackling and cursing.

The group of people in the Huangcheng Division didn't hum when they were scolded, and when he finished scolding, someone accompanied him with a smile: "It was Steward Quan (Chief Quan Bao) who said that the weather was too hot and we didn't need to stand outside, and let us come in to have fun. "

"It's King Yi who treats us so well, how dare you?" Mao Tong said angrily.

"I'll stand, I'll stand, we take turns." A married soldier quickly took his knife, and ran to the gate of the palace to stand on duty.

The four people who followed Mao Tong just came to change shifts, rubbing their fists and looking excited, they must also be waiting to find a place to play pool.

There was no entertainment in the Southern Song Dynasty. Zhao Yurui installed a few pool tables in the palace, first taught all the guards, and now there are people playing every day.

Originally, many people in the Imperial City Division were unwilling to come to the Yiwang Mansion to guard, because the sun was easily exposed to outside the gates of the palace, and it would be too hot. Go to Yiwang Mansion to stand on duty.

"You guys don't play around all the time, work hard." Mao Tong cursed a few more words and walked inside.

Soon Zhou Lai came to meet him, and when he saw him, he said excitedly, "Brother Mao."

"Brother Zhou." Mao Tong also said kindly.

"King Yi is looking for you, let's go."

"Okay." Mao Tong turned his head to signal the other four to change shifts, and told them not to be playful. The four nodded and left quickly.

The four were stationed at the Qinde Hall. When they arrived at the entrance of the hall, they saw a person standing outside and laughed immediately. After entering, there were indeed many people inside. There were three billiard tables in the east, west, and middle of the hall.

At one of the tables, Wei Liaoweng, Du Fan, and Lin Jie, several civil officials, were gathering there to fight, while the other two tables were filled with soldiers, the scene was extremely exaggerated.

Mao Tong followed Zhou Lai to Minde Palace, Zhao Yurui was waiting for him in the main hall.

He approached King Yi enthusiastically, while Zhao Yurui picked up something from the table and handed it to him: "My king's card room will open in a few days."

"This is a VIP card with an annual fee of [-] guan. Of course, we have waived it for the Mao Yaguan. There is no fee to play billiards with the card, and there is no charge for the box room. 'Guest ten."

Mao Tong was both surprised and delighted. As for the number, he couldn't care about it. He could clearly hear the words "no money, no charge".

He excitedly took the VIP card. The card was made of iron. On one side was the serial number "Shi", and on the other side was the words "VIP, Free Waiting". .

"Yi Wang is really, too polite, the last general——" Mao Tong was so excited that he couldn't speak.

For low-level generals of his rank, usually even the ministers of the court would not look at them directly. For example, the civil officials of the seventh and eighth ranks in the Qinde Palace looked down on him. I didn't expect King Yi to treat him so well.

"We have a basis for this card. Only the Mauritius can use it. You can't lend it to others."

"The general understands, please don't worry, King Yi." Mao Tong patted his chest and assured that I would not let others play with it, so King Yi can rest assured.

Zhao Yurui said again: "After opening, Officer Mao can bring some brothers to play."

"Of course, it is necessary."

"Officer Mao can also introduce brothers from the Imperial City Division and the Forbidden Army to come to play. Anyone who comes here just needs to report the name of Officer Mao, and seven days before the opening, they will get a [-]% discount."

"The last general would like to thank King Yi on behalf of the brothers." Mao Tong blushed, and he was about to blush now.

A [-]% discount based on my name, even though it's only for the first seven days, is quite a face-saving thing.

On August 28, Jingshi Dajiale’s poker room officially opened.

On the day of the opening, Zhao Yurui bought a lot of fireworks. At this time, fireworks in the Song Dynasty were the most prosperous period, and the shelf fireworks and bonsai fireworks were quite interesting.

There was a firework meal at the scene, thick smoke was everywhere, and it was extremely lively. At the same time, a large number of people lined up at the door, waiting for the door to open.

Before the Café de Coral poker room opened, hundreds of people lined up, shocking the entire city of Lin'an.

"Dongfeng puts thousands of flowers and trees at night. It blows more, and the stars are like rain." Zhao Yurui shook the paper fan lightly, triumphantly, standing on the second floor watching the crowds of people and the fireworks outside.

This Song Ci was just memorized yesterday, so I quickly pretended to be coercive while taking advantage of the situation.

Zhou Qiong was standing beside him at this moment.

Zhou Qiong is wearing a loose robe today, and there is no belt around her waist, but she is really in good shape. Even though her waist is not tightened, every time Zhao Yurui looks back, she can see the obvious curve of her upper body, which is beautiful and exquisite.

Moreover, she stands upright and looks dignified and graceful. If she hadn't known that she had worked in Fenglailou before, people who saw her at first sight might have thought she was a lady of the imperial court, a lady of everyone.

Zhou Qiong heard Zhao Yurui's pretentious words, and a faint smile flashed on the corner of his mouth: "King Yi is really powerful, the people lining up outside are all the Imperial City Secretary and the guards of the imperial army?"

"Of course, [-]% discount for the first seven days, can they not come?" Zhao Yurui laughed.

Because in the past ten days or so, many guards of the Imperial City Division had played in the Yiwang Mansion, one pass ten, ten pass one hundred, the people of the Imperial City Division of the capital are very interested in this now, people who are not worth today, people who can't help They all ran over.

Some people want to play Wangfu for free, but not everyone can resist it.

In addition, Zhao Yurui wanted to build momentum, Mao Tong helped, and the brothers also supported, so there were a lot of people here today, and the queue outside the door was basically the Imperial City Division, and there were also a small number of imperial troops.

"The door is open." At this moment, the security officer downstairs shouted loudly, and the door of the game room opened with a loud bang.

Wow, people from the Imperial City Division rushed in one after another.

In fact, there are not so many tables inside. The first floor is full of pool tables, and there are only eight tables in the room. The back yard is also used. It just doesn’t rain recently. If it rains, it will be covered with tarpaulins.

There are six tables in the backyard, and the entire poker room has only fourteen tables on the first floor, and there are two separate tables upstairs, which are not in operation.

Dozens of people suddenly rushed in, and there were still a large number of people who couldn't get in from outside.
