It's really not suitable to whisper when you are out.

Qi Tiezui was complaining in his heart, but when he saw the two sisters walking towards them, he quietly nudged Jinnian.

"Don't let your sisters seduce you."

Before Jinnian could figure out what it meant, the sisters came over.

"My dear, you are so handsome!"

"Where are you from?"

"Is there anyone you like?"

"Are the sisters pretty?"

The sisters were talking to each other and Jinnian couldn't get a word in.

She could only blush, stare at Qi Tiezui's teasing eyes, and stiffly praise it as beautiful.

The sisters like this kind of honest boy. Jinnian's sincere praise is much better than those men's sweet words, and they immediately want to pull him to play.

"Cough cough!"

The sisters glanced at Qi Tiezui who was coughing deliberately. Qi Tiezui first glanced at Jinnian, raised his chin, then looked at the sisters, and finally, patted his chest.

The sisters didn't know if they had misunderstood. One of them glanced up and down at Qi Tiezui and said lightly.

"Toad."

"?"

"Eh?"

"No, how did you talk?"

The sisters glanced at Qi Tiezui and hooked their fingers at Jinnian: "Do you want us to take you out to play?"

Jinnian shook his head. Qi Tiezui stood in front of the man indignantly and said, "Go away, go and seduce others. Don't lead our young master astray!"

The sisters rolled their eyes at him and left.

Jinnian poked his head out from behind Qi Tiezui, looked at the two people's backs, and praised them, "They are so beautiful."

Qi Tiezui was still angry. Even if he wasn't as good-looking as Jinnian, you couldn't say that about him, right?

"I'm not as pretty as you. Pretty as hell. Let's go."

Qi Tiezui led people all the way to the hall. There were many tables in the middle, one after another, with various casino games on them.

"Play for a while?"

Jinnian's eyes lit up as he watched. The dealer's skilled posture, swaying body, and the hot atmosphere around him were all tempting him to get closer.

However, he pulled Qi Tiezui's clothes shyly and said, "Eighth Master... I'm a little hungry..."

"Oh, oh, I forgot about that."

Qi Tiezui looked around and found that the entire hall was filled with gambling tables.

"How come there is no food at the Crescent Hotel?"

As soon as he finished complaining, a woman in a blue coat came over.

"Sir, are you hungry?"

"Oh, that's great, you still have this service? Ask him, he wants to eat."

Jinnian looked at Qi Tiezui and asked him to speak, but for a moment he didn't know what to say.

Seeing that he was at a loss, the maid smiled gently and handed him a list.

Qi Tiezui took it back and looked at it: "Oh, there is also a menu?"

"Come on, let's sit down."

"What do you want to eat, young master? Let me see..."

"Longjing... Dahongpao... and hot water. There are many varieties. There are only so many teas. Let me see the others. Braised pork trotters, Peking specialty... Why are the prices not listed?"

There was no price written on it, which made Qi Tiezui feel a little nervous. The configuration of the Xinyue Hotel was different from that of ordinary hotels, so the dishes here probably wouldn't be cheap.

“Is there a menu with prices?”

The maid's smile remained unchanged: "Yes, I can give you another one."

The maid handed over a new menu. The previous one was in Jinnian's hand. He flipped through it and was very interested in the dishes on it. He checked several items in a short while.

"Let me see. Braised lion's head...how much? One hundred dollars? Fried noodles with bamboo shoots, one hundred and fifty dollars?"

Qi Tiezui was shocked, raised his hands, and whispered to Jinnian: "Young Master, they are robbing us!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the maid in front of him looked up at him. Qi Tiezui coughed quickly. Is this woman's hearing so sharp?

Is this restaurant crazy for money? One dollar can buy several bowls of noodles and several plates of lion head in Changsha! Crazy?

Seeing that he didn't order any food for a long time, the maid's smile gradually faded.

Jinnian had no idea about prices, but the dishes on the menu were quite expensive.

Qi Tiezui quickly held his hand: "Young Master! Wait a moment......"

"Well, you go down first. We'll call you after we've ordered."

The maid lowered her head, turned and walked into the shadow of the hall, whispering to the person in the shadow.

Jinnian saw Qi Tiezui shaking his head and put down the menu in his hand.

"So what should we do? Should we go out to eat?"

Qi Tiezui felt a pain in his heart. If it were Master Fo or Second Master, they would have bought the item that Jinnian liked without blinking an eye. But he couldn't. His entire fortune consisted of a few broken compasses and silk banners. The money he earned from fortune-telling was not enough for him to spend himself.

If it were in Changsha, he would not be unable to afford to treat Jinnian to a meal, but this restaurant in Peking is too dark, cruel, so cruel!

Jinnian patted Qi Tiezui's shoulder considerately and said, "Then let's not eat. Let's go play for a while. When Master Buddha comes down, we can go out to eat. I have money."

Qi Tiezui wanted to hug Jinnian and cry. Little Jinnian was so considerate. He immediately decided that he must let Jinnian have fun!

In the shadows.............

"Miss."

"What did they say?"

"Miss, that tall guy actually said that our restaurant is a robbery!"

"Oh? What are you looking forward to?"

“A few dishes.”

"Ah? Is it expensive?"

The maid was actually a little silent.

"Xiaolan?"

"Um... maybe a little bit?"

The "Miss" curled her lips: "What does he like?"

“Tanghulu, fried bamboo shoots, roast duck, preserved eggs.............”

"Alright, alright, give him one portion each. I told him he should stay with me. If he stays with others he won't even have enough to eat, so how can I raise him well?"

"Miss is wise!"

"That's right! You can order some too. It's not expensive at all. I won't charge you any money."

"Hehehe thank you miss."

"Let's go, I want to see what they are playing."

...............

Qi Tiezui took Jinnian to a table, and the dealer next to them just opened the dice cup.

One person's joy brings worries to several others. Except for one person who took all the chips with a smile on his face, everyone else had a look of regret on their faces, regretting that they should not have bet everything.

Qi Tiezui approached right up to him before he remembered that he had led Xiao Jinnian astray. If Er Yuehong knew about this, he would not come to kill him, right?

Hiss........He thought about it carefully and it was indeed possible, so...he might as well go all out. He was lucky today and maybe he could earn enough money for Jinnian to eat.

Qi Tiezui chose the simplest table, which also had the smallest ante.

Another round of gambling started at the table in front of him, but Qi Tiezui was not in a hurry. Instead, he explained to Jinnian how to play this game.

"This game is very simple, just guess the size."

Qi Tiezui pointed at the dice cup.

"See that little box over there? There are three dice in it. Each dice has six numbers from one to six. They will shake the dice cup later, and the numbers on the three dice will be added together."

"Four to ten is small, eleven to seventeen is large."

"You just have to guess whether it's big or small."

Jinnian was eager to try it out. It sounded quite simple. He just needed to put the chips on big or small and choose one side.

"What if it's three or eighteen?"

"Then no matter whether it's big or small, it's considered a win. This is called a full payout."

Seeing that he was curious, Qi Tiezui added some more trivia.

"If the sum is seven, the dealer wins half the bet. If the sum is ten or eleven, the dealer wins double the bet."

"Wouldn't that be troublesome?"

"Hahahahahahahaha, you don't have to worry about so much, you just need to guess whether it is big or small, and the rest is up to the dealer!"

While Qi Tiezui was explaining this to him, another round had already been completed. The man who had previously won a large number of chips still believed in his good luck this time and bet everything.

Unfortunately, God did not favor him this time and he lost all his chips.

He slammed the table in frustration, regretting not following the others and choosing the other side.

Those who can enter the Crescent Hotel are not ordinary people. At least they are wealthy and powerful. Even if they lose all their chips, they will not lose all their belongings.

It is precisely because of this kind of thinking that the chips in the game are increasing and have accumulated into a considerable amount of money.

Qi Tiezui took a hundred dollars and exchanged it for ten chips.

If I win, I can use it to eat. If I lose, the hundred dollars is not a big deal. The best I can do is order a lion's head meal at the Crescent Hotel.

Qi Tiezui gave half to Jinnian, five for each of them.

"How about comparing who earns more?"

"Don't worry, I'm not cheating. I'm just having fun and seeing how my luck is today."

Jinnian looked at the chips in his hand. It was a small round plate he had never seen before. It was black with gilded patterns on it. It looked pretty nice.

"This should be made by the Crescent Hotel. It feels good."

In fact, the denomination should be one silver dollar or five silver dollars, but a meal costs you one hundred dollars, so they simply don’t allow low denominations, the lowest is one hundred.

Jinnian touched the chips in his hand, waiting for the next round to begin.

Everyone else had a few blue chips in their hands, but few gray ones.

Representing five hundred and one thousand respectively.

Only the dignitaries would gamble with higher denominations, after all, the money is not a small amount.
