The portable magic tower of the Three Kingdoms

At most places like Zhuo County are not as particular as here, and the slums are still quite dirty.

Since it is the main road of Luoyang, it is naturally the most prosperous place, with various wine shops and restaurants everywhere.

One or two elegantly decorated pavilions can be vaguely seen, and the most conspicuous ones are indeed the lanterns with blue lampshades hanging on them.It is lit at night, and the light that is probably emitted is blue.

This is the brothel on the Luoyang side, but one can tell at a glance that almost all the people who enter and exit are dignitaries, literati and refined scholars.I really haven't seen any of that kind of vulgar nouveau riche, or existence with a relatively low status.

What really surprised Liu Tao was that it was still open in broad daylight...

"Canshan, I'm free some other day, let's come and see?" Liu Tao teased, looking at Lu Yan beside him.

"Father mentioned that the brothel facing the street is nothing more than a place for the children of officials, royal family members, wealthy merchants, etc., to pursue ostentation...Brother, you can take a closer look. Whoever goes in is easy?" Lu Yanyao shook his head.

Liu Tao really took a look, and found that even if it was a scholar wearing Confucian robes, most of the fabrics were silk, or brocade clothes, and no one was in coarse linen.

There are also wealthy businessmen, but their identities are not just wealthy businessmen.Most of them bought officials in Xiyuan, or bought a Guanneihou.What they want is an aboveboard, wearing silk clothes, the qualification to enter this kind of brothel.

In other words, for these people, the inner enjoyment is second, and the key is to be comfortable on the face.

"Generally speaking, when literati gather, they will choose the brothel by the Luoshui River. The scenery there is more elegant, and the price is more reasonable." Lu Yan further explained.

It is not surprising to go to a brothel these days, the women inside are all performers but not their bodies, and their looks are above average, and even many of them are beginners.If a certain scholar is very fond of poetry, he can also add fragrance to his red sleeves, which is very interesting.

As for those who are purely in the skin and flesh business, they are called "Liao". The women are pretty, but of course they have no education and they don't need them.

In a certain alley, you can even see a half-opened hut with an embroidered shoe hanging on the door.Some have been hung for a long time, exposed to the wind and sun, and become broken shoes.

Lu Yan introduced slowly like this, which actually killed some walking time.Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, and even Liu Tao, originally only knew it but didn't know why, but now they suddenly realized it...

"It's here!" Lu Yan suddenly said that the largest fighting theater in Luoyang had arrived. "The fighting theater for cockfighting, dog fighting, and horse fighting should all be outside the city. The indoor fighting theater should be the largest here."

It should be said that other things were not mentioned in my father's letter, and it was also Lu Yan's first time here.

"Listen to me, the strategy for the meeting is mainly..." Liu Tao called the three of them over and said to them.

"Is this... is it really okay?" The three of them were a little surprised. How can luck change so quickly?

"Wait..." Lu Yan seemed to have thought of something, and asked in a low voice, "Could it be that brother knows the spell to change luck?"

"You just found out?" Liu Tao laughed.

Very early, before he formally dispatched troops, he learned the source of magic.At that time, it was mainly for the skill of 'Susheng Dafa', but after opening the area of ​​source magic, time manipulation and luck can naturally be learned.

The disadvantage is that it can only be cast by a single person at present, but for four people, it only has 40 mana points.

Lu Yan and others didn't know that Liu Tao tried to cast this magic when he first had a headache and met Liu Hong.Unexpectedly, not long after, Liu Hong actually summoned him directly.So he has been using this magic almost every day for the past few days.

"Brother, you should have said it earlier!" Lu Yan immediately complained when she heard the words, "I'm so worried about this journey..."

Chapter 180

"Three guests, the lowest chip in this workshop is one hundred coins..." Before entering the door, the two concierges looked at the outfits of the four people, and stepped forward to remind them.

These two concierges have been receiving guests here for many years.At a glance, it is possible to tell whether the customer is rich, or even whether he is really rich or pretending to be rich.

Basically, look at the appearance first, the heavens are full, and those with a red face are either rich or noble; then look at the temperament, which is the most important thing, those who get rich suddenly, or put on good clothes to try to be brave, that temperament cannot be pretended of.

"It's only one hundred coins..." Liu Tao reached into his sleeve and took out five gold cakes, "Fifty coins is today's amount."

"Sorry, please come in..." Seeing this, the two concierges naturally couldn't stop them.

Fifty guan is nothing in this gambling theater, there are people who bet [-] guan a day, but that is just an act of pique.Normally speaking, squandering one gold cake (ten thousand qian = ten thousand gold) would mean spending ten thousand gold, let alone five.

"Brother, our quota is more than fifty guan, it should be [-] guan..." Guan Yu stepped forward, and he was still carrying the ten guan that he had won in the fighting theater.That little fight theater is obviously not as high-end as Jinbing.

As for this, Liu Tao naturally understood that there must be a big person behind this fighting theater.I don't know who it is, but in a place like Luoyang, it's easy to connect with Shi Changshi when opening a fighting theater.

However, unless there is a banker, it is just a game between two players, and it has nothing to do with the shop itself.So Liu Tao asked about the venue fee by the way, and the fee here was actually fifty cents.

No wonder the minimum is [-] Wen. If it is lower than [-] Wen, it feels like there is no profit.

"Peck it, peck it!" There was a shout from the back of the venue, accompanied by some cocks crowing, which seemed to be a cockfight.

"Cockfighting is also possible here?" Liu Tao looked at a waiter.

"This store raises a lot of fighting cocks, and customers can bring their own chickens." The waiter nodded, "Except for the two people who compete, other customers can also place bets."

"In other words, there is a banker, right?" Liu Tao probably understood.

"Yes, the store is responsible for the banker. If there is a tie between the two chickens, the banker will take all." The waiter replied, "It is also allowed to bet on the banker. If you win, you can pay back ten times."

"Does the banker win many times?" Liu Tao asked.

"This..." The latter smiled, but did not answer. Obviously, there are regulations that cannot answer this kind of question.Or in other words, if you want to know, you must have some 'benefits'.

It's just that Liu Tao didn't intend to know, or didn't care about it, so he didn't continue to ask.

Seeing that Liu Tao didn't intend to ask further, the waiter also left with a disappointed expression on his face. Obviously, selling this kind of information was their extra income.Of course, if Liu Tao didn't give the money and kept asking, he would say it, but it might be nonsense.

Touhu, Azalea, Liubo, cockfighting, and even some other games.There are also direct bucket pickers in Aphora cuspidatum, and there are quite a few of them.Obviously, deducting a few people who come here for entertainment and relaxation, most of the others are for money.

In other words, looking at thousands of pennies, the heart-pounding process of more and less is what they are after.

"According to the plan!" Liu Tao replied, and immediately began to compete with others.

As for the other three, play according to their own preferences.The ten guans that Guan Yu carried on his back were just for squandering.Even if they lose everything, they still have to keep their eyes open, so that others can see how heroic they are in spending a lot of money.

"Start with ten stances?" Liu Tao finally found someone to compete with him, but the other party asked for a start with ten stances.As for the capping issue, the other party didn't say anything.

"If you can't afford it, I can change it!" The latter replied.

"Okay, start with [-] guan... Try your hand first, how about [-] guan start?" Liu Tao took out a golden cake and asked.

"That's easy! You come first?" The latter also took out a gold cake and placed it on the low table.It was very casual, as if he didn't take this piece of gold cake to heart at all.

"It seems that Your Excellency should have a high status." Liu Tao teased, and then threw Wumu.

"Ta Cai... It seems that your luck is not very good... As for my identity, it is not worth mentioning." The latter looked at Liu Tao, then took Wumu, shook it, and then threw it away.

After looking at the result, he pushed the gold cake to Liu Tao, shook his head and said, "Xiaocai... It seems that I am even more unlucky than you."

"Will the waiter in the store not come to collect the venue fee?" Liu Tao looked around curiously.

"Unless we end, they won't come...they know how much they should charge. But it's also obvious, you should come here for the first time." The other party laughed.

"It's indeed the first time I've come here, and I'm planning to see and see... come again?" Liu Tao asked, "Twenty times this time."

"Okay, I'll go first!" The latter nodded, took out two gold cakes and released them, then took Wumu and threw them out.
