Vol 2 Chapter 1213: Long line fishing for big fish


Liu Yu looked at Zhuge Changmin coldly. From the look of this guy's dress and the aura, he clearly felt that this old brother who had lived and died together in the past was no longer like the previous one. The Zhuge brothers became more and more like the Diao brothers. Although there was a smile on his face, he could not see a little sincerity.
But Liu Zhong didn't see it. A flash of surprise flashed on his face and said, "Brother Zhuge, how are you here?"
Zhuge Changmin said with a smile: "I am also entrusted by Liu Yi and Liu Sima to help take care of these casinos. Brother Liu Zhong, you don't know, this battle can't be without money, we went to fight Ye last time City, why did the brothers forget those gold and silver treasures? It ’s not because we are usually poor, and we hang our heads on our waists, not for the sake of wealth, if this wealth is our great advancement, our court If you ca n’t give it, you have to earn it yourself, right? "
Liu Zhong nodded: "It's such a reason, but what does this casino have to do with these?"
Zhuge Changmin sighed: "In the past few years, Dajin has fought too many wars. Every time he fights, the country will enlist the elite Dingnan to join the army. There will be no people here. Brother Liu, you said, these years , We sent troops to fight, but have we lost one meal and lost you a bun? "
Liu Zhong scratched his head: "Well, this is not the case. The court is eating and dressing, and has not owed our brother."
Zhuge Changmin laughed: "That's it. Fighting requires food and wastes land, and the court must also have income. You said that we have so many strong men who don't farm or produce. The court Where did the money come from? Last time we battled Yecheng, we lost so miserably, so many brothers died, brothers, you said, this hatred, do we still have to report it ?! "
Not only Liu Zhong, but also the other Beifu veterans who were guarding on the side, shouted: "Revenge, revenge, revenge!"
Zhuge Changmin nodded in satisfaction: "Yeah, this blood feud must be reported, but the revenge will send troops, the soldiers will need food and grass, military pay, you say that our lords in Beifu do n’t usually pay taxes, and they themselves are kept by the country You have to eat rice and reward the war. Where can you get the money from the court? You ca n’t say that for our revenge, just go and search the people in other places. Everyone says, is this the reason? "
At this time, everyone nodded and said, even Liu Zhong said: "Brother Changmin makes sense, it is true, then as you say, this casino is opened by the court, to raise money for the Northern Expedition?"
Zhuge Changmin nodded: "It can be said that the local who opened the casino is a local history, and the joint stocks, there are King Kuaiji and Wang servant shooting them, when we beat the water, these princes are also Visiting the battlefield to contribute to the country, we are fighting for the Lien Chan in the Jin Dynasty. Everywhere is broken, and the people have a heavy burden. Even if we open a gambling house, we can't make money. Only we in Jingkou, there are so many soldiers who are rewarded for their merits. Empty and lonely, there is a place where you can play and bet, but also to find some fun for everyone and make some money for the country. It can be described as the best of both worlds. Why not do it, everyone says yes. "
Liu Zhong still sighed in a loud applause: "The reason is such a reason, but, it's just my money, which is for my mother's treatment and medicine. Today, I was anxious and I wanted to return my money here, but I lost money. , What can my mother do now? "
Zhuge Changmin smiled and found a hang of money from his arms, and stepped forward into Liu Zhong's hands: "Brother Liu, since it is the money that the old lady wants to see a doctor, then don't come to the casino. Open a mouth with our brother. The squeak is, we are brothers on the battlefield, your mother is my mother, the mother is sick, how can your son ignore it, this thousand dollars, you take it first, and when I have the money, I will not be late. "
Liu Zhong's eyes were full of tears with excitement, and his voice was shaking: "Brother Changmin, you, you are my regenerative parent, me, I am just selling pots and iron, and I will definitely repay your money in the future."
Zhuge Changmin smiled and patted him on the shoulder: "Okay, okay, Brother Liu, go and get medicine for your mother. Let's talk about the money."
Speaking of which, he turned back to Zhuge Limin and said with a deep voice: "Bring the clothes of Brother Xiao Liu back to him, our Beifu brothers, we can't be so unconventional and not decent."
Zhu Ge Limin reluctantly returned to the gambling house, took out a cloth and threw it to Liu Zhong: "If he loses his red eyes, he will have to play again, I don't want this smelly clothes yet."
Liu Zhong smiled and put his clothes on his shoulders, and paid a military salute to the brothers of Zhuge Changmin, grabbed the money, and turned away happily. Zhuge Changmin followed the military salute, keeping his hand on his chest without taking it off , Zhuge Limin saluted angrily, pretended to be pretending, and turned around and shouted to the people around him: "They all went back to work and dispersed."
Calm was restored again outside the casino, there were already more than a hundred people watching, and all of them were talking at this time ~ EbookFREE.me ~ Everyone sang their thumbs up to boast of Zhuge Changmin ’s benevolence, Many people walked into the gate of the casino without hesitation, leaving only the two brothers of the Zhuge family, standing beside the door and nodding at the new guests.
Liu Yu was still standing under the big tree, watching with cold eyes. The brothers lowered their voices and muttered quietly, but with his ear power, even in the noisy vocals, he could hear clearly and clearly. It is the daily exercise with Murong Lan over the years. Unconsciously, Liu Yu already has the audiovisual ability of a top spy. Now, he not only has the power of a bear, the speed of a leopard, but also has the eyes of an eagle and the ears of a wolf!
I only heard Zhuge Limin said bitterly: "Brother, what are you doing? Yesterday, when you came to Wang Zhongde, your shot was a thousand dollars. Today, Liu Zhong is another thousand dollars. If we lose money, we will do the same. Will the casino still be open? "
Zhuge Changmin said coldly: "Do n’t be greedy for the momentary profits, the Wang family brothers, and Liu Zhong are not ordinary sergeants. Even in the Beifu army, they are also powerful players. Can draw, now they come here to gamble money, but just for fun, I really want to let them lose nothing, and finally can only become our servant slave, you have to use some means. You look at it, I gave Liu Zhong today A thousand dollars, but the medicine will soon be spent, and within half a month, he will come again, and when that happens, you can prepare the contract. "
