The years when I was an old man

Although Jiancheng is a small town, the nightlife here is not inferior to that of a big city.

At the beginning of the lanterns, the night is sultry.

Under the breeze, the river bursts.

The entire ancient city exudes its unique charm under various gorgeous lights.

But even under such beauty, there are still all kinds of evils hidden.

For example, a casino.

When we arrived at Sun Yao's casino, it was already past nine o'clock in the evening.

This is a remodeled underground parking lot.

As soon as I entered the door, I couldn't help frowning.

This is almost the messiest place I have ever seen.

All the mahjong tables were intertwined with other gaming tables in a chaotic manner.

Some gamblers want to go to the table to place their bets and walk through the crowded mahjong tables.

As soon as we entered, Sun Yao walked over with a smile.

As soon as he came to us, he immediately said to us:

"Several bosses, come in and have a look. Although our situation is a bit messy. But to be honest, this situation is the biggest one in the world..."

As he spoke, he took us to the innermost position.

Here is a Santai that is playing Niu Niu.

Relatively speaking, it is not as chaotic as the peripheral gambling tables.

To my surprise, the old prodigal was there.

It's just that he didn't play, but stood aside, watching the excitement.

Seeing Master Hong and me coming over, he nodded towards us as a greeting.

But Lord Hong looked at the old prodigal with a smile, and said directly:

"Boss Yao, why didn't you play?"

In fact, I am also surprised that it is said that the two major regrets of players are watching and gambling with prostitutes.

The old prodigal is also a person with a huge gambling addiction, so he was here to watch the fun, but didn't play.

Before the old prodigal could speak, Sun Yao immediately said:

"The main reason is that Master Yao thinks we are playing too young, and he can't cheer up every day! Bosses, how about I set up a game for you. Play something big?"

How much we play doesn't matter to Sun Yao.

Anyway, he mainly relies on pumping.

"We're fine, look at Boss Yao!"

The old prodigal pushed down his glasses, nodded and replied:

"Then let's play for a while!"

"Then go to my office, it's clean there!"

Sun Yao said with a smile on his face.

The office Sun Yao mentioned is actually just a simple cubicle.

The inside is also a mess, but it is relatively clean.

"Bosses, what are you going to play?"

Sun Yao asked.

"Don't be awesome, I'm not very good at it. Fry Jinhua, short deck!"

The old prodigal sat at the table and continued.

As for the short deck he mentioned, the rules are almost the same as the normal ones.

只是去掉了2、3、4、5，玩36张牌。

The only difference is that normal a, 2, and 3 count as a straight.

In short decks, a, 6, and 7 are counted as straights.

In this way of playing, the probability of big cards appearing is higher, and it is more exciting to play.

Generally, some old gamblers with great gambling will choose this way of playing.

I listened, and my heart was overjoyed.

This is equivalent to invisibly doubling the bets in the game.

Sun Yao called two more people, Master Hong and I, plus five old prodigals, and they were ready to start the game.

The old prodigal opened a deck of poker casually, shuffled the cards casually, and said:

"Let's not play too much, just an ante of [-], and a cap of [-]. How about it?"

The other two had no opinion.

But I feel a little small in my heart.

Because what I have to do today is to find a way to get the old prodigal to take over.

Only in this way can he be taken down at the fastest speed.

Thus, the matter between him and the pawnbroker Gao Wenliang was resolved.

But I can't disagree. After much deliberation, it depends on whether there is a chance to stimulate him to play the bottom of the stage with me.

At the beginning of the game, as usual, I was not in a hurry to make a thousand.

Instead, look at the three of them first to see if there is anything tricky.

Master Hong, like me, played cards normally.

The game of cards went on like this.

After playing for a while, I found that the three of them were quite clean, and no one had done anything with the cards.

I was just about to give Master Hong a signal to tell him that he can do it.

Suddenly, the wooden door of the office that was about to fall apart creaked.

Looking back, I saw a woman in her 30s walking in from the outside.

This woman has long hair and a good figure.

It's just that her makeup is heavy, not heavy makeup, but a bit like smoky makeup.

In short, looking at it, it gives people an uncomfortable feeling.

As soon as she entered, she greeted the three of them.

Then, he picked up a chair, sat down beside the old prodigal with a smile, and said delicately:

"Boss Yao, if you win more, I can also get more money!"

As soon as the old prodigal stretched out his hand, he hugged the woman.

The two flirted with each other playfully.

The game continued, and the woman helped the old loser to check the cards and place bets from time to time.

But apart from these, there is no other move.

Could it be that this woman is just the concubine of the old prodigal in the shed?

At this time, the game has been going on for more than an hour.

I lost more than 3 yuan, and Master Hong also lost more than 4 yuan.

This time I was on the banker, and while shuffling the cards, I gave Master Hong a secret sign.

Tell him, prepare to block cards, and I will deal him a big deck of cards.

Holding the poker, I washed it in a swish.

At the same time, intentionally or unintentionally, he looked at the woman who had just entered.

This woman is still leaning on the old prodigal, and she didn't even look at my shuffling.

Once the cards were dealt, I chose to bet [-].

The old prodigal called, and Master Hong directly raised to [-] in boredom.

The other two looked at their cards and chose to fold.

When it was my turn again, I picked up the cards and looked at them.

Then, he put the cards together, threw them aside, and said:

"You two play, I won't follow!"

The old prodigal was holding a card and was about to see it.

Suddenly, the woman with smoky makeup held his hand and said delicately:

"Don't look at it, just follow it!"

"Okay, then I'll add some more!"

With that said, the old prodigal pointed out five thousand and threw it on the card table.

"Five thousand boring!"

It was Lord Hong's turn again.

At this time, Lord Hong pretended to be conflicted about wanting to watch but not wanting to.

But the old prodigal suddenly said:

"Little brother, you can get tens of thousands of dollars in a dance hall. Why don't you keep this little money?"

"The aggressive method, right? Alright, then I'll add another five thousand, ten thousand!"

With that said, Lord Hong took out a wad of money and slapped it on the table.
