Chapter 201: I won and built a factory for you

"Who will open the cards first, the boss or me?"

Xia Yushi looked at Zimo and thought he was just a little brat.

"The gambling house belongs to me, so I'll let you play a round. You open your cards first."

"Since I'm the one opening the cards, the host should put the cards in the center and wait for the competition."

"Of course." Xia Yushi placed the cards in the center of the gambling table.

Zimo slowly rolled over the cards.

At the same time, he turned the cards over and placed them in the center of the gambling table.

Xia Yu Shi was a little confused when he saw Zi Mo's cards.

What happened? How did his good hand end up in Zimo's hands?

He flipped over the cards and was stunned. How could there be a point missing?

He looked at the cards again and again, and found that they were fine. He immediately broke into a sweat.

"The boss lost the first game. If I don't want to gamble anymore, I just want a banker." Zimo wiped his hands with a handkerchief.

Xia Yushi had never been provoked like this before.

"Butler, deal the cards." The second round began. It was obvious that Xia Yushi was in a panic.

The butler's hands were shaking as he dealt the cards.

"Please open the cards first this time!" Zimo sat there without touching the cards.

Xia Yu Shi looked at the housekeeper, and the housekeeper nodded and said it was okay.

He rolled over the cards and took a look at them, then motioned Zimo to put the cards in the middle of the table.

Zimo lifted a corner of the card, took a look at it, and then placed the card in the middle of the table.

Everyone in the room watched the entire process, and there was not a single flaw.

But when the cards were revealed, everyone opened their mouths in disbelief.

Zimo won again!

Hit Xia Yushi again.

Xia Yushi was stunned at this time. How could a child beat him? Would he be able to open this gambling house in the future?

How is he going to survive in southern Xinjiang in the future? he said angrily.

"Butler. Deal the cards." The third round began again.

This time Zimo went even further. He didn't even touch the cards the entire time.

Just stare at Xia Yu Shi's cards.

It was the butler who placed the cards in the middle of the table.

He sat there leisurely, making people feel that he was just there to watch the fun.

His hands kept tapping on the table.

The sound of "da da da" makes people feel creepy.

"Boss, this is the last round. If you win, I can add another round. If you lose, this gambling house, bank and bank will belong to me. You have to think it over carefully."

Now Xia Yushi is getting very anxious.

He didn't believe that Zimo was so lucky.

"Butler, open the cards!"

The butler's hands were shaking so much that he could hardly pick up the cards.

When the cards were revealed, the whole casino exploded.

This little brat actually won a gambling house, a money shop and a banker in just half an hour.

This is a master in the gambling world!

Xia Yushi was so angry that he almost vomited blood.

Ye Xiuxiu was watching the fun from the side and was amazed.

This is a genius. Although he doesn't understand, but after watching the whole process, Zimo can't win three games in a row unless he has special abilities.

And it was in someone else's gambling house. How brave is that? He dared to challenge alone.

Xia Yushi came to his senses at this time.

He shook his head, signaling the thugs to beat the man out.

This is a rogue move. Then tear up the contract.

It's useless for a small official to complain anywhere.

Before the big men could even stretch out their hands, they saw Zimo turn around and grab the contract. Then he jumped onto the gambling table and kicked the big men out one by one.

Seeing Zimo's skills, others all stayed away from him.

Ye Xiuxiu took a look and saw that his chance to show off had come.

He ordered several experts to attack at the same time to control Xia Yushi and the others.

"What do you mean? Are you trying to shirk your debt? Setting a trap to frame a government official is a serious crime. Opening a gambling house to cheat the common people is worse than pigs and dogs. Make good on the bet tomorrow. See you at the government office."

Zimo jumped off the gambling table and walked away talking with the gambling agreement in his hand.

With Lord Ye Fuyin here to clean up the mess, he doesn't care.

With Zhuangzi, he can let go and do his best.

As for the gambling houses and money houses, leave them to the prefect to handle.

He doesn't care about those things.

Ye Xiuxiu looked at Zimo who turned around and left without caring.

With a wry smile, he took Xia Yu Shi and a group of gamblers away.

The next day, I didn't wait for Zimo to come to work.

Ye Xiuxiu ordered Sheng Qing to close the gambling house. The gambling house belonged to Zimo.

Transfer the money house and the farm to Zimo's name.

Xia Yushi was thrown into prison, all his property was confiscated and returned to the government, waiting for his fate.

All gamblers were fined 1,000 taels of silver. Those who did not have silver had to pay corvée labor to provide the silver.

When the document was given to Zimo.

"I just want the manor, it's useful. The rest should belong to the government." Ye Xiuli and Sheng Qing looked at each other.

This young man had no money, so he went up the mountain to pick fruits to earn money.

He won so much wealth, but he treated money as dirt.

They couldn't understand what Zimo was trying to do.

Zimo didn't care what they thought.

He had less than 700 taels of silver in his hand.

He hired villagers to go up the mountain to pick wild grapes.

I made fifty large wooden barrels at the carpenter's shop.

I bought a lot of watering baskets, gauze, and a stone mill for pressing grapes at the blacksmith's shop. I also bought a lot of basins.

He hired people to pick ripe wild grapes from the mountains.

This is the season for picking wild grapes.

Then they hired a dozen women to pick the grapes, clean them with water, put them in baskets to dry, and crush them on a stone mill. A basin was used to catch them.

Add rock sugar to the grape juice, seal it and place it in an underground ice cellar to ferment for a month.

When drinking, filter the grape juice with gauze. The delicious wine is ready.

Zimo spent a whole month making wine.

Because after this season the wild grapes will be gone.

Fortunately, Xia Yushizhuangzi’s underground ice cellar is big enough.

He made a total of 500 barrels of wine.

At the end of this month, he had basically used up all his money.

He started going up the mountain to dig wild yams again.

Herbs and seasonings such as cinnamon, bay leaves, peppercorns, etc.

Many things were planted on the farm by hired people.

Especially wild yam, which has high yield and grows fast.

Ye Xiuxiu asked him if he needed their help?

He smiled and said he could handle it.

Just when he was busy, a severe drought hit southern Xinjiang.

Many crops were killed by the sun.

And it is the time when autumn leaves are not coming.

He organized the villagers to dig wild yams to fill their stomachs.

He dug up all the yams from his own farm and gave them to the common people.

He then took the wine out of the cellar and sold it to restaurants and wealthy families.

He exchanged the money for rice and flour for the common people. Although it was insignificant, he tried his best.

When Situ Jin and Xia Luo came to Southern Xinjiang.

They saw that the people were not like during the last drought, when the streets were filled with beggars.

I saw the yamen runners distributing porridge at the city gate.

They arrived at the government office, but Ye Xiuxiu and Sheng Qing were not there.

According to a yamen runner, they all went to the villages below.

Six guards remained in the yamen.

Taking Kong Qing and Long Kui with me, I strolled along the street.

Arriving at Fumanlou, Xia Luo and Situ Jin went in.

"Boss, you're here!" Zhang Qi was extremely happy.

"Thank you for your hard work, Brother Zhang!" Xia Luo left him alone in southern Xinjiang and never asked about him.

Occasionally he would ask suppliers to bring him some cooking spices.

She didn't participate in anything else.

"Master, please sit down first. I'll ask the chef to prepare a few dishes for you to try. Are you satisfied with their cooking skills?"

"We are here to eat anyway. Let's try the cooking skills of the masters." Charlotte was not polite. He had never eaten at their own restaurant.

"Kong Qing, Long Kui, come and sit down to eat. When you're done, give them some food to take back home."
