Country Feng Shui master in the city

Lei Zi tore open the old newspaper and saw that it was a shiny luminous cup. He thought for a while and said, "The rules of the pawn shop are that you can work as a pawn for a maximum of three months, and it is not a small sum with interest. Do you have the money to get your stuff back?"

"I only have more than 300 yuan for my whole body. Where did I get that much money in three months?"

"Then you still give me something!"

"It's all my brothers. I will help you if you are in trouble. But my brothers will settle accounts. The market price of this luminous cup is about [-] to [-]. I will lend it to you. If you give me an IOU, it will be considered as if you lent me the money." , not counting as your interest." Chen Luo said it very naturally.

At the beginning, Lei Zi was quite moved by Chen Luo's righteousness. He felt strange when he heard the second half of the sentence, and he said: "How can there be no IOU for borrowing money? I will just issue an IOU. You have Paper and pencil?"

"I'm joking with you, seriously, that bald man is awesome, he made my brother so miserable, I'll go meet him."

"You can't beat the bald-headed one. I heard that this guy spent 2 yuan to get He Xiangu to consecrate him. Now, every bet is sure to win."

When Chen Luo heard it, he immediately became interested and said, "Hearing what you said, I really want to see how that bald-headed Qiang wins other people's money." In Chen Luo's eyes, He Xiangu is a bragging witch, even People who don't even see Luban's ink line, how can there be many ways.Thinking about the long experience in the past, what is the magic of the consecrated person.

"Go, I'll take you to have a look." Lei Zi rolled up the newspaper, stuffed it in his pocket, and walked towards the door, with Chen Luo following behind.

After going downstairs, the two walked straight outside. Seeing the mysterious appearance of the two, Ruotao asked curiously, "Brother, where are you and Lei Zi going?"

"Go out to do some errands, and I'll be back in 10 minutes." Chen Luo deliberately said when he would come back, because he was afraid that Chen Donggen would talk about it.Lei Zi also got into the car. He has been in the pawnshop business for several years, and his driving skills are excellent. The two arrived at the pawnshop within 15 minutes.

In the past, I saw pawnshop shopkeepers in TV dramas as old men, but times are changing, and she is quite beautiful in charge of a pawnshop, with a professional title of manager, and she is the only one in total.

"You two handsome guys, are you a little tight lately, do you want to borrow money?" The manager spoke like a pimp. The pawnshops are all with underworld backgrounds, collecting stolen goods and lending usury, and now they really rely on pawning for a living. Very few.

"Lei Zi, show her the luminous cup?" Chen Luo said.

"We want to make a living. Manager, how much is this thing worth?" Lei Zi pulled out a newspaper from his pocket and handed it over.

The manager of the pawnshop usually touches gold and silver jewellery. He used a magnifying glass to look at it for a while, then looked at it with a flashlight for a while, and then asked, "The shape and workmanship look good. Where does this luminous cup come from?"

Generally speaking, antiques with provenance or background are valuable.Lord Qianlong used a jade toothpick, which was also sold for 260 million at the auction house, which shows the importance of the origin.

This luminous cup was bought by Chen Luo in the next semester of his sophomore year at the antique night market in Hangzhou. According to his judgment, it should be from the Qing Dynasty. It has no origin, and it may be a wine cup used by ordinary wealthy families. .Chen Luo nonsense said: "This luminous cup is something handed down from his ancestors. It is said that it was used by the servant girl next to Lafayette Charity. It is very valuable. Last year, this luminous cup sold for several million. We are a little tight recently, and want to temporarily mortgage it to you."

The manager didn't believe Chen Luo, and said, "It's risky to collect antiques. I'll give you 1 yuan, pay back the principal within 20 days, and confiscate expired items." The pawn shop sets the repayment period according to the amount of money.

"Such a good cup only costs 1 yuan. Look at the workmanship. Maybe it's something Cixi used." Lei Zi was a little anxious.

"..."

Lei Zi argued with the manager for a long time, but the other party insisted on 1 yuan and would not let go. Chen Luo got a little annoyed, and shouted to Lei Zi: "If you talk about small business, she won't give you 3 yuan. Just let them mortgage the Poussin car, and the car is worth several thousand just to buy scrap iron."

"Are you crazy? The car is gone. How can I go back and do business?"

"Let's go to the chess and card room to find Bald Qiang. Why don't you gamble? Besides, don't you want to return the family heirloom?"

"Manager! Including the Luminous Cup and a Poussin car, you can give me 4 yuan, and you can pay it back within a month." Thinking of Ruotao, Lei Zi took out his car keys and slammed them on the table.

The manager thought for a while and said, "Poussin's new car is only 8 to [-] yuan a car, and this wine glass will give you [-] yuan, it should not be taken down."

Lei Zi hesitated a little, and asked Chen Luo to help him make up his mind. Chen Luo asked him, "Do you have any money?"

"6000 yuan was raised."

"Be it!"

As soon as Chen Luo thought that 6000 yuan would be enough for gambling, Lei Zi saw what Chen Luo said, so he took his ID card and went through the relevant procedures for the manager. After 15 minutes, he took three dollars, and the two left the pawn shop.The car was already in the pawn shop, Chen Luo and Lei Zi walked to the gymnasium area. In the east of the city gymnasium, it was a place full of fish and dragons. There were video game halls, Internet cafes, billiard halls, chess and card rooms, and some massage rooms everywhere. hospital.

The pawn shop opened near this mixed place, less than 5 minutes later, Chen Luo and Lei Zi came to the golden sword fish chess and card room in an alley, and heard a noise as soon as they entered the door.

"Totally bored!"

"Open the cards."

"Ah, Jinhua! Brother Qiang, your luck is probably too much."

"I'm sorry, brothers, the gambling luck has been super good recently."

When Chen Luo entered the door, he heard a loud noise coming from the table in the innermost part of the room. There, four or five people gathered around the card table. All the red banknotes were taken away.

Lei Zi licked Chen Luo's mouth: "That's Bald Qiang."

Chen Luo let out a cry, and walked towards the chess and card room. Lei Zi walked in front without hesitation, and when he came to the edge of the card table, he threw the money on the table and said, "Brother Qiang! You count the three dollars. .”

Bald Qiang took three dollars of money, weighed it in his hand a few times, threw it to the younger brother beside him, and said, "The money taken out of the bank may not be accurate, just count." The younger brother responded, untied the white note, and demonstrated the super money counting The technique, the fingering is no worse than that of a bank teller, fast and accurate, within 2 minutes, the money counting is completed.

The man said: "Brother Qiang, the number is no problem."

"Where's the note?" Bald Qiang stretched out his right hand, and Lei Zi handed him the note.

"Go to the safe and give him that piece of broken jade." The bald man tore off the white strip, and the money counter boy fetched the jade and handed it to Lei Zi.

After making sure carefully, Lei Zi hung it around his neck, glanced at the bald Qiang and said, "Brother Qiang, the matter between us is settled. My brother heard that Brother Qiang will lose every bet, so I want to play a few games with you. Dare?"

Bald Qiang looked Chen Luo up and down, and the corner of his mouth twitched, "It's no wonder that he is Lei Zi's brother, and I want to help him avenge him."

Chen Luo said lightly: "It's not all, I'm short of money recently, let's try my luck."

The bald head said strongly: "I played dice with Leizi the day before yesterday. Who knew he was a soft-legged shrimp, and he couldn't hold it up after a little effort. How about we have a showdown on the dice?"

Chen Luo said: "Just bet on this! It's all about luck, I like it."

"Cheer up! Come and serve tea to the distinguished guests?" Bald Qiang saw the fat sheep coming to the door, and asked people to clean up the card table and serve tea at the same time.

Soon two cups of tea were served, Lei Zi didn't even think about it, he picked up the teacup and drank it down, he wiped his mouth and said: "Fatty, if you can help me vent my anger, I will count on you. "

Chen Luo just smiled, but didn't drink tea immediately, picked up the teacup, and glanced quickly across everyone's faces.At this moment, Chen Luo keenly felt that the faces of Bald Qiang and the men around him were overjoyed. Suspicion suddenly arose in his heart. He looked down at the tea, brought it to his mouth to smell it, and put the teacup on the card table. After the last release, he said displeasedly: "It's a little petty to entertain people with this kind of inferior oolong tea. I won't drink it without the best Yuqian Longjing tea party."

The faces of Bald Qiang and the others suddenly changed. It should be impossible for this kid to see the tricks in it. Such a cover-up technique will be seen by others.

Some of them shouted: "Brother Qiang, I invite you to drink tea, you kid is actually throwing a big name, don't you want to save face?"

Chen Luo snorted coldly: "I've said it all, I'm not used to drinking oolong tea, don't you have any other tea here, plain water is fine too."

"Don't be rude, Lei Zi is my brother, his brother is my brother, go down and change the tea and come up again." Bald Qiang taught.The subordinate apologized again and again, turned and left, but inadvertently showed a cruel smile.This smile was seen by Chen Luo, and Chen Luo felt that it was weird, so he pulled a chair to sit on the card table, and Bald Qiang also sat down.

Chen Luo took a dice Gu from the table, shook it casually, and said, "A handful of thousand yuan, compare the size, the leopard is a tie, how about it."

Lei Zi whispered: "Let's play a few small ones first to try our luck. You don't want to play such a big one when you come up."

Bald Qiang sarcastically said: "Your brother Leizi is more timid than you, learn more." He threw 1000 yuan on the table, took the dice cup and shook it a few times, opened it, three fives.

Lei Zi's face was a bit ugly, Chen Luo smiled lightly, took the dice cup and shook it gently, and when he opened it, he saw three sixes, which was a leopard.

"Brother Qiang, I'm sorry. I'm a leopard." Chen Luo immediately pocketed the money.

"Come again."

"Two six one five."

"leopard."

"Two five and one six."

"leopard!"

"..."

Chen Luo fired ten leopards in a row, and Bald Qiang was about to collapse. If Chen Luo was not cheating, he wouldn't believe it even if he killed Bald Qiang.However, the dice cup is my own, and the dice are fine, but I can see something is wrong. Bald Qiang's forehead began to sweat. He used to lose more than 3 yuan a day, but he lost 1 yuan in less than [-] minutes. Money is definitely the first time in life.Cursing in my heart: what are those guys doing, why hasn't the tea been brought up yet.

"Brother Qiang, the best Yuqian Longjing tea is here." The younger brother came over with the tea.

"Hurry up and send it to Fat Brother. Please forgive Fat Brother for his poor hospitality. Please have some tea." Bald Qiang said with a smile on his face.

Chen Luo looked at the younger brother serving tea beside him and said, "I'm not thirsty now, so put it aside and drink it when I'm thirsty. I'm lucky now, let's continue to gamble."

Bald Qiang said with a gloomy face, "Drink tea while it's hot. Fat brother won't even give me this little face, my little brother's hands are sore."

Chen Luo thought for a while, and said, "Just have a drink, so as not to go to the bathroom all the time, it's not a problem."
