209: Master Huo got rich
Chu Jinyan nodded seriously: "Well, I'm very familiar with you. You have saved my life. Now I think the debt I owe you has been unfinished, so I thought about it and the best way is to pledge myself to you."
, I will pay it back slowly in the rest of my life."
Lu Xiang looked as if he had seen a ghost and stood up from his chair: "You guys talk slowly, I'll go back first."
As he spoke, he hurried out.
It's really terrible. If you stay here any longer, I don't know what he's going to say that's going to make you mad. Leave now.
Seeing Lu Xiang's running back, Chu Jinyan showed a fond smile on his lips, and his dark black eyes narrowed slightly, revealing a ray of light that was determined to win.
Huo Pengzheng and Huo Yi were closely together and received a serious shock.
Why on earth did the eighth prince express his affection for the third lady so unscrupulously in front of them? Oh oh oh, they don't want to know.
Chu Jinyan was not afraid that Huo Pengzheng would find out what he was thinking about Lu Xiang. After all, if Lu Xiang didn't trust their father and son, he would not let them know what he wanted to do.
The road to marrying a wife is long and arduous, and he must make allies.
"Yuanfeng, you stay and discuss the charter with Uncle Huo, and he will take over when Zong Li arrives." Chu Jinyan ordered.
Yuanfeng handed it over.
Chu Jinyan left with Shengxian. Yuanfeng looked at the dumbfounded father and son and showed a friendly smile: "Uncle Huo, let's have lunch together?"
Huo Pengzheng nodded blankly: "Okay... okay."
Half a month later, the Lucky Casino reopened, and regular customers found that the casino had changed a lot. It looked bigger and more luxurious, and there were more ways to play. They were eager to move after seeing it.
"Master Huo, have you made a fortune and rented out all the shops next door?" Someone walked around the casino and asked excitedly, Huo Pengzheng, who was sitting in the venue.
Huo Pengzheng laughed loudly: "Thanks to everyone, Huo is able to make money. In order to let everyone have more fun, the gambling house has been slightly modified. As long as you enter my gambling house, if you are tired, please go up the east staircase.
Floor, we provide each person with a free pot of tea and a plate of melon and fruit cakes for everyone to rest."
Instead of renting the shop next door, His Highness the Eighth Prince bought the shops on both sides.
When everyone heard that no money was required, they were immediately moved.
Someone asked with a smile: "Master Huo, if I sit upstairs doing nothing for a day, will you kick people out?"
"Don't say sit here for a day. Even if you live here, no one will kick you out. But we only provide a pot of tea and a plate of cakes. You have to pay after eating. You have to sit for a day and take care of your own food. You have to stay overnight.
Bring your own bedding."
Everyone laughed happily, and suddenly felt that Huo Pengzheng's approach was in line with their wishes.
Everyone likes to take advantage, especially those who are short of money and like to gamble.
A pot of tea and a plate of pastries can fill their stomachs, but it can save them a day's food expenses.
"Master Huo, you have a lot of new faces here? Where is Master Jiang, why haven't you seen him?"
Huo Pengzheng glanced at the speaker with a meaningful expression, and said with a lingering fear: "I heard that he offended some powerful person and ran away in a hurry. This was not because he was afraid of being retaliated.
I closed the casino for months, and it wasn’t until the news subsided that I reorganized it and reopened it. Just listen to this, but don’t spread it outside."
Everyone suddenly looked frightened and nodded hurriedly.
"If you haven't shown up for so long, will you be silenced?"
Huo Pengzheng looked at the man and said "hiss", and reminded: "It's okay for me to say this here, but don't go out and say it nonsense. Then people will not know it."
The man quickly covered his mouth: "Yes, yes, yes."
Huo Pengzheng then smiled and said: "Don't panic, everyone. Since I dare to open a business, I am naturally well prepared. With you here, everyone can just have fun."
"Okay, let's take a walk, my hands are itchy after not gambling for a long time."
Everyone was pushing and shoving and dispersed.
Someone from Chu Jinyan was running the gambling house, so Lu Xiang didn't interfere much after that. He just drew a portrait of Lu Chao and photographed it in front of Huo Peng, asking him to tell people to keep an eye on him. If this person came to gamble, he would be chased away.
He went out and asked Huo Pengzheng to close down the Laiyun Casino in the shortest possible time, no matter what means he used.
In his previous life, Lu Chao incurred a huge debt from gambling and was caught by Laiyun Gambling House. He was beaten and mutilated. Qiao Jingru had to raise his wife much earlier than in his previous life. Lu Xiang had to take precautions in advance.
Huo Pengzheng didn't know why Lu Xiang wanted to come to the gambling house, but since the third lady ordered him, he just had to do it.
In the past, although he and Jiang Jin had some connections, they did not have strong backers. The Laiyun Gambling House was bigger than his and the business was better, but he never dared to think that one day he would be able to suppress the Laiyun Gambling House.
It was closed down, but things are different now.
Behind him is the Eighth Prince, the most noble person in the Wei Dynasty.
With the confidence, it would be easier for Huo Pengzheng to let go of his hands when doing things. Moreover, all the people sent by His Highness the Eighth Prince are capable people. If the Lucky Gambling House cannot become big under such circumstances, then they are too incompetent.
Zong Li reported Lu Xiang's request to Chu Jinyan, and Chu Jinyan asked him to fully cooperate and meet all Lu Xiang's requests. Zong Li was stunned for a while after hearing this. He had just been transferred back to His Highness. This happened.
What doesn't he know?
Thousands of years of melting glaciers, will they have an eighth princess?
Zong Li, who had seen through everything, immediately decided in his heart that he would treat Miss Lu San as an ancestor.
During this time, Aman also found out the origin of Rong Yin.
As soon as Ah Man found out, he couldn't wait to go back to Lu Xiang: "Miss, Miss, I will check..."
She shouted as she ran into the courtyard, which made Lu Xiang, who was sitting in the room, almost jump with fright because Qiao Jingru was sitting opposite her.
As soon as Aman entered the room and saw Qiao Jingru, he immediately shut his mouth.
Qiao Jingru looked at her, cracked the melon seeds and said, "Aman, keep talking, what are you checking?"
Ah Man rolled his black eyes and said: "A new beef restaurant has opened in the east of the city. The braised beef tastes amazing. I almost bought it. Who would have thought that when it was my turn, it was sold out and I would be angry."
"Cough!" Lu Xiang coughed lightly and waved to Ah Man.
Ah Man turned around and ran away.
Qiao Jingru chuckled and said, "You always send Aman out to do things, right?"
Lu Xiang: "It's a pity that Aman can only eat but not cook."
Qiao Jingru laughed and shook her head, then turned to ask something else: "Will you go on the opening day of Furong Pavilion?"
"As long as Brother Qiao is here, I won't go. When the first batch of gold brocade comes out, I will go and inspect the finished product," Lu Xiang said.
The most important thing of Furong Pavilion is not to open a shop to sell various fabrics. This has no advantage over the major silk and satin shops in the capital. What Lu Xiang wants to do is to make the gold brocade into a precious tribute. Only in this way can Furong Pavilion be superior to the other major silk and satin shops in the capital.
