My father, Li Shimin, requests Your Majesty to become the Retired Emperor.

Changsun Chong smiled at Li Chenggan and said, "Old man, you can place your bet now."

"Hmm," Li Chengan thought for a moment, then first had Qin Ying take out a thousand taels of silver from her pocket and put it on the table, "I, an old man, will bet three."

As soon as the three words were uttered, Changsun Chong's expression changed slightly.

People placing bets, both at the door and in person, have stakes of one, two, or even four.

However, they bet small amounts, ten or twenty taels.

As soon as the box was opened, there were indeed three.

Qin Ying chuckled upon seeing this: "Bookmaker, you'd better pay up."

Changsun Chong said, "It's just three thousand taels of silver. It's nothing."

So, the silver was given to Li Chenggan and his men.

For other home visits and deliveries, the food and compensation should be paid as appropriate.

Changsun Chong thought to himself, "I just placed a three, and this old man won money. He must think I'm going to change my piece."

But I refuse to change it.

This time, they've put three on the line again.

He made up his mind, then stuffed the "three" into the treasure box again and presented it to the higher-ups.

Li Chengan smiled and said, "I just had 1000 taels of silver, and I won another 3000, so that's 4000 taels."

"Take out another 6000 taels to make a total of 1 taels."

"Okay!"

After hearing the instructions, Qin Ying took out another 6000 taels of silver from his pocket.

Adding the 4000 taels from before, it came to exactly 1 taels of silver, which was piled on the table.

The snowflakes, white as silver, are truly captivating.

Changsun Chong then asked, "Old man, how many are you betting on this time?"

This time, Li Chengan didn't hesitate: "I'll bet three again."

Seeing that Li Chengan had bet on three again, the others followed suit and bet on three as well.

Although the number of people betting wasn't large, the total amount was still considerable when everyone put their bets together.

Upon hearing this, Changsun Chong was so frightened that he almost fell off his chair.

You should know that if someone bets on 1 taels of silver and wins, you'll have to pay them 3 taels in return.

That's no small amount.

Silver is worth a lot of money these days!

When the treasure box was opened, it indeed contained "three" again.

Everyone was overjoyed when they saw this, and Qin Yin was especially happy.

"Lord, we've bet 1 taels again!"

You'd better pay up.

At this moment, someone hurried inside to deliver the message.

Not long after, a person came out from inside.

Everyone glanced at the newcomer and saw that it was none other than Fang Yi'ai.

Behind Fang Yi'ai were four thugs, each of them burly and strong.

Fang Yi'ai then asked, "Who's causing trouble? Who's cheating on my field?"

When Li Chengan saw it was him, he was furious.

It turns out that Fang Yi'ai and Changsun Chong are in cahoots, running a gambling den here to swindle money from people.

Qin Ying shook her big head: "Who are you saying cheated? Everyone's watching."

Since everyone else also bet on three and won, the house has to pay out.

However, Changsun Chong's estate did not have that much money.

Fang Yi'ai nodded to Li Chengan, Qu Zhili, Qin Ying, and the other two, saying, "So the three of you are experts."

It's alright, it's just 3 taels of silver.

We're running such a big betting operation. Do we really need the money?

Come on, let me play a game with you guys first.

Qin Ying said, "Don't give me that nonsense, just pay back the money you just owed."

Everyone said so, and Fang Yi'ai said, "Alright, move the silver!"

The four burly men went to the warehouse to move the silver.

At this moment, Changsun Chong walked up to Fang Yi'ai and said in a humble voice, "Your Highness, I thought they would definitely turn back after the third time, but I didn't expect them to follow so closely."

Therefore, I lost money.

Fang Yi'ai glared at him fiercely, thinking to himself, "Such a big bet, and you didn't even tell me before you put the bet in."

"I'll pay for this first, but you'll have to pay me back later."
