Happy peasant girl

Chapter 169 Taking a boat across the river (4)
"My lord, I'm here, I'm here!" At this time, another person came down from the upper floor in a panic, and he was wearing his coat while smiling and said to Lord Guolun, it turned out to be that scholar-like person.

"Just you, you are just a servant, Han Xiao, you bet with me!" Lord Guo Lun sat down directly in the hall, and then asked Han Xiao to bet with him.

"My lord, Han Xiao is a businessman and doesn't know how to play dice." Han Xiao smiled, but the look in his eyes turned cold.

"This king doesn't know how to play, besides, we won't play dice today!" Lord Guolun said with a wicked smile.

"Then what does the prince want to play?" Han Xiao asked.

"Playing with people!" Lord Guolun said.

Lin Qingxi has been standing behind Dong Ying, Bai Hua and Bai Yang heard the movement below, and did not see Lin Qingxi coming back, so they opened the door and came out, and then saw Lin Qingxi standing behind others, they also hurried away down.

The young man in front of Dong Ying glanced coldly at Lord Guolun and Han Xiao, and then planned to go up. Dong Ying also followed him, and Lin Qingxi naturally followed him upstairs. She did not interfere with things that should not be involved. Who would have thought that Lord Guolun would have trouble with her, and she was stopped after just two steps.

"Stop for me, this boat is either my people or Hanxiao's people, you come to be the banker." Lord Guolun often has some unexpected ideas, as early as Linqingxi and the others boarded the boat, he knew their existence , also know that they are just small merchants on a boat.

"My lord, my lord, my servants are ignorant and bumped into some of you, and I hope they will take care of you, so how about I become the banker!" Bai Hua worried about Lin Qingxi's safety, so she took the initiative to stand up and said.

Dong Ying turned around and glanced at what Lin Qingxi and Bai Hua wanted to say, but the young man walking in front of him felt more chilled, so he had no choice but to swallow the words in his mouth, and followed the young man up with heavy steps.

Han Xiao invited Lin Qingxi and the others to board the boat, but he didn't want to break the rules for Lord Guolun alone, and let people say that he was too flattering to the people of Youta Kingdom.

However, on the pier, only Linqingxi's family was willing to board the boat. After boarding the boat, he arranged for them to live in the uppermost innermost floor, but he did not expect to involve them.

"I don't need you, it's just him!" Lord Guolun insisted on letting Linqingxi, a kid, be the banker.

"I...I...I don't know anything!" Lin Qingxi stammered as if frightened.

"Bold, how can you call yourself 'I' in front of the prince, are you looking for death!" The guard who almost fell to Linqingxi just now shouted fiercely at Linqingxi.

As soon as he shouted, Lin Qingxi's tears fell "plopping", and he didn't dare to cry in front of everyone.

Seeing that Lin Qingxi was so frightened that tears came down, Lord Guolun and the guards around him all burst into laughter.

"Kambau, look at you making people cry. What a humble and cowardly poor man, haha. This king rewards you with an ingot of gold, pick it up!" Then, Lord Guolun took out an ingot from his bosom Gold was thrown on the ground.

Although she is very short of gold now, it's not that Linqingxi has never seen gold, nor has she never seen gold, but she has never seen such an ingot of gold.

However, human beings have dignity, and it is impossible for her to squat down like a dog to pick up the food she got.

"I... my mother said, you can't... you can't just take other people's things. No matter how good the gold is, it belongs to others. I want... to earn money to support my family with my own efforts." Lin Qingxi said sobbing deliberately, and then He also straightened out his own small chest.

Han Xiao couldn't help but nodded, this is still a child with a backbone, he doesn't want Lord Guolun to make it difficult for Lin Qingxi, he also knows some of Lord Guolun's temper.

So he said softly to Lin Qingxi: "It's okay, don't be afraid, the prince wants to gamble with me fairly, so you can help us be the banker. Prince, I don't know, how do you want to bet?"

"This king is a guest, and you are a master. You have the final say on how to bet, and what to bet on, but this king has the final say!" Lord Guolun said.

"Just according to the prince, I know nothing like this child, so how about I bet on the size of the dice with the prince?" Han Xiao also sat down opposite the prince of Guolun, and an attendant had moved a long table Put it between the two.

"Okay, just bet on the size of the dice. But if you lose, you have to give me the goods in the bilge. If the king loses, I will give you the gold and silver on my body, one ingot and one box of goods!" After focusing on Han Xiao's ship, he also knew that Han Xiao was a businessman who kept his promise. The goods in the bilge might not be bought with gold and silver, and he wanted to win it back.

Han Xiao hesitated for a while, until he looked up, and then said with a smile: "Okay, it's just according to the prince."

"Kambau, take out the dice!" Lord Guolun likes to gamble, many people have heard of it, and also heard that he always carries two spiked dice with him.

"Wen Fei, teach this kid how to throw dice." Han Xiao said to the scholar-like Wen Fei.

"Understood, my lord!" Wen Fei asked for two smaller bowls, then put Lord Guolun's Spike Dice into the bowls, put them together, clasped them back and forth, shook them tightly, and then put them on the table In the first place, he rolled two sixes, which looked like a master.

Lord Guolun saw Wen Fei's tricks and smiled knowingly. He knew that the dealer wanted to find a stranger, otherwise he would lose to Han Xiao, a treacherous businessman.

The gambling game officially started, Linqingxi started to roll the dice clumsily, Lord Guolun won in the first game, Han Xiao won in the second game... just like that, until it was dark, the outcome of the two people was actually the same, and Lin Qingxi Qingxi's hands were already sore.

Obviously, in the eyes of Lin Qingxi, these two people are masters at playing dice. Although she is not from either side, Han Xiao and Lord Guo Lun's ear powers are amazing, and they are secretly competing, so block After a long time it was still a draw.

"It's a waste of my king's time to play like this. It's better to decide the outcome in one round. If I win, you give me all the goods in the bilge of this ship. If I lose, you give me all the gold and silver. Jewelry and those slaves are given to you, do you dare to play?" Lord Guolun said impatiently.

"Hehe, if you don't dare, just follow what the prince said." Han Xiao didn't want to continue spending time with Lord Guolun.

"My lord, my lord, what if this round is a draw?" Wen Fei, who had been watching from the sidelines, said.

"Lin An, if this last round is a draw, I will give you ten silver coins as a thank you!" Han Xiao suddenly smiled and said to Lin Qingxi who was rubbing his arms.

Lin Qingxi told several people just now that his name is Lin An, he is from the state of Chu, and he followed his young master and grandmother to the state of Wu to do business.
