Chapter 235 High Society
game city.

In the west of the city, it covers an area of ​​about [-] mu. Inside, there is a baroque castle about [-] meters high and [-] mu of construction land. The bottom is like bamboo shoots and the upper part is like the tip of a pencil.

Inside the castle hall.

The lights are gorgeous and the music is moving.

At the banquet with long tables and flowing water, maids and waiters in uniforms and bow ties hold trays in their hands, like butterflies wearing flowers, delivering delicate and delicious food and drinks with dreamy colors to distinguished guests before.

In the hall, under the giant crystal chandelier, thousands of guests toasted and asked each other, and had a lively conversation.

Most of the topics discussed are only one.

"This dress of yours is very beautiful, and I have never seen such a color before."

"Are the feathers on your hat the tail feathers of the chirping bird? The feathers of this bird are only found in the 37th district. I heard that it costs 500 gold each... Oh my god, your hat is worth 1 gold."

"Oh, it's so beautiful, your dress is so beautiful! It's very similar to the legendary peacock. I heard that the peacock's tail feathers are colorful. When it opens its tail, it will reveal many colorful eyes. This dress of yours is called the peacock. Screen?"

"What, you have no clothes on, and these clothes are all drawn with paint? Oh my god, it's so realistic! Especially this bird, it's so similar!"

A corner of the banquet.

"Sir, your clothes are very unique. The red cloak, golden leather boots, and this golden crown on your head look very...noble. Is there anything special about it?"

Holding a wine glass, a man with clothes in at least fifty colors and one hundred exquisite accessories walked up to Zhou Ming, his eyes lit up when he saw the clothes on his body, and he couldn't help asking.

Sipping the red wine in his glass, Zhou Ming said lightly: "This suit on me is called the 'Emperor's New Clothes'. It is an emperor who rules over hundreds of millions of subjects. He will only wear it on major celebrations. It is a kind of clothing that will impress the noble impression of the king in the hearts of hundreds of millions of subjects."

"The emperor's new clothes? The emperor..."

The other party opened his eyes wide and said excitedly: "It's great! I've always wanted to own a set of clothes that you said the emperor wore, and I designed many sets of clothes myself, but I haven't designed that kind of nobility..."

He stepped forward and took Zhou Ming's hand and said, "Sir, come to my castle as a guest! Help me design a set of clothes similar to yours, and I can pay you enough."

"Yes, please leave me your contact information, and I will visit you in your castle some other day."

Zhou Ming nodded in agreement, and seeing this guy excited and looking forward to it, he couldn't help but feel happy.

Dude, this is just a western-style emperor suit. When I wear the dragon robe at home, you can't accept it?
This kind of costume banquet is really low.

In addition to the costume banquet, in the game city, there are various high-class banquets held grandly almost every day.

Such as painting banquets, music banquets, poetry banquets, gourmet banquets, etc., there are many types.

The largest number is held, or a variety of costume banquets.

It is also easy to participate in these costume banquets. First, you have to have a net worth of more than 10 yuan, and you are eligible to enter the aristocratic district in the west of the city; , into the eyes of the banquet host, you can enter for free, enjoy fine wine and food, and do not need to prepare any gifts.

Of course, those with ugly clothes, the same style, outdated trends... No matter how much money you have, the organizer will reject you.

It doesn't even matter if the shape is ridiculous, the more fancy the more popular.

Others, such as painting banquets, music banquets, poetry banquets... are all the same, don't look at money, just look at your understanding of art, to what extent.

That's right, unlike the artist's Hell Area 52, these nobles in the upper area have long since left their low-level interests and started to use their infinite imagination in various artistic fields.

Coupled with their relatively long lives, they have profound attainments in the fields of architecture, music, clothing, etc., and have achieved a lot of results.

Even if there are some achievements, it is not an exaggeration to call them "wonderful fruits", but in general, the hope of artistic revival in the world of money rests on the millions of nobles in the upper area.

As for Zhou Ming, whose worth is in the upper class, he can squeeze into the top 10%. In addition to his countless experiences in different dungeons, as well as his advanced appreciation of art, it is not easy for him to integrate into these high society.

That's why he only participated in more than a dozen costume banquets and music banquets. In the upper class, Zhou Ming was already well-known.

"Noble Zhao", "Music Star".

These are the two names that Zhou Ming has recently mixed up in the upper class.

"Gaogui Zhao, so you are here, come here, let me introduce some friends to you."

A voice came, but it was Mr. Rogaby, the host of the banquet and the owner of the castle, who warmly greeted Zhou Ming and introduced some friends to him.

Three men and one woman, all with distinctive features, their names are not easy to remember, Zhou Ming called them "Hooked Nose", "Tall", "Medium Belly", and "Jump-Breasted Woman" respectively.

After the introduction of these few people, Luo Gabi pulled Zhou Ming kindly, and said with a smile: "Gaogui Zhao, let's go play cards together for a while, and try our luck by playing two hands."

"I don't know how to play."

Zhou Ming put down his wine glass, shook his head lightly, and said that he didn't really want to play and wanted to go back to rest.

"If you don't know how to play, I can teach you, and my friends can also teach you."

After Luo Gabi finished speaking, he gestured to the four friends with his eyes imperceptibly.

"My friend, what are you doing going back so early? Let's have some fun and try our luck with a small gamble."

"My friend, you are too mean. Last time Mr. Gaby invited you to play, why don't you go, why don't you go to the head office this time?"

"Little brother, why are you so timid, let's play with my sister~"

The ju-chested girl came over with a gust of fragrance, her tender body resting on Zhou Ming's shoulder, her jade hand was holding his arm, and it was shaking and rubbing against her murder weapon, her voice was coquettish and charming.

Zhou Ming's consciousness was in a trance for a while, his eyes were a little blurred, he looked at the pair of murder weapons, licked his dry lips, and nodded blankly like a pig brother: "Okay... okay, then... then Just go and play two."

There was a sneer in my heart: Luo Gebi, you want to trick me?
Then play with you!
……

The sixth floor of the castle.

In a professional casino with good sound insulation and luxurious interior configuration.

Large card table, automatic card shuffling device, beautiful croupier, exchangeable chips... everything is available.

"Gaogui Zhao, how many chips do you want to exchange?" Luo Gabi asked in front of the chip exchange desk.

"Let's change it to 50." Zhou Ming took out the money card in his pocket.

"So much? Gaogui Zhao, 10 is enough, not so much." Luo Gabi shook his head and kindly reminded.

"Change some more. I've been to Mr. Gaby a few times as a guest. Even if I lose more, I still want to play with Mr. Gaby for a while longer." Zhou Ming said righteously.

"Okay! I'll exchange 50 too! Have fun with Brother Zhao!"

According to Luo Gabi, Zhou Ming has been upgraded from noble Zhao to "Brother Zhao".

So, he also exchanged 50 chips, and the three men and one woman who followed him also exchanged 50.

After the chips were exchanged, everyone sat in a circle on the large gaming table. Because the table was very large, the distance between each person was more than two meters.

Everyone is playing the most common "Stud". The cards they use are almost exactly the same as the poker cards in Zhou Ming's world. There are also four suits, from A to 10, plus JQK and King and King. There are 54 cards in a deck. After removing the big and small queens, there are 52 useful ones.

Fearing that Zhou Ming would not understand how to play, Luo Gabi tried two games and enthusiastically introduced the rules of the game to him:

"In each round of the game, the card dealer will deal five cards to each person. Among the single cards, A is the largest, and then there are pairs, three legs, three with two, bombs, the same suit, a straight, and a straight flush...in turn. Big, straight flush is the biggest! In the same combination, compare the cards, for example, if two people have a straight flush, then the one that goes to A in the straight flush is bigger than the one that goes to K..."

In fact, Zhou Ming knew these rules a long time ago, but he still listened patiently, nodded and said: "I understand, I understand."

After teaching, stud begins.

Because there were six people playing at the same table, each of them had a low winning rate, five consecutive rounds, because the cards were too small, Zhou Ming didn't win any rounds, and didn't bet on any rounds.

Fortunately, the bets in each game are not much, only 500 money, and only 2500 will be lost in five games.

"Add 500."

"and."

"Add 1000."

"with!"

"Add 2000!"

"I want to compare cards."

"Haha, same suit, eat your pair! I won!"

In the sixth round, Zhou Ming's luck exploded. He not only won back the bet he lost, but also earned 3000 money from the tall man.

"Brother Zhao, you're lucky. It looks like you will definitely win tonight." Luo Gabi nodded appreciatively at Zhou Ming.

"Haha, it's just one, that's all." Zhou Ming said with a smile, his face was very excited.

The other four smiled imperceptibly at the corners of their mouths.

So, starting from this hand, Zhou Ming's luck became quite good. He would win one every three or four hands, and sometimes he would even win seven or eight rounds in a row. More, at the back, the most hand, four people called together to 20, allowing him to win [-] in one hand.

One night, at the gambling table, everyone except Zhou Ming lost a lot.

Earned a full 200 ​​million!
"Brother Zhao, you made a lot of money. Come play again next time." At the end, Luo Gabi patted Zhou Ming on the shoulder and laughed.

"Little brother, you must come next time, my sister wants to win back what she lost." The ju-chested girl put her arms around her arm again, and said coquettishly.

"Okay!" Staring at the pair of murder weapons, Zhou Ming said like a pig again.

……

Get out of the castle.

Zhou Ming, whose face was flushed with excitement after winning the money, quickly returned to normal, with a sneer at the corner of his mouth: "If you come again, won't you just fall into your trap?"

Such a low-level trap, except for smart people who are too conceited, and fools who are hopelessly stupid, who would fall for it?

Get 200 million money for nothing.

　Stud, I feel that there should be no such card in the other world, but I really don’t want to conceive it, so let’s apply it
