Qin Xiao gave the quotation straightforwardly, and Dou Ba was stunned for a moment.
Seeing Dou Ba looking straight at him, Qin Xiao calmly said in a very polite tone: "You have to pay one month in advance to clean the toilet, so it costs Chenghui nine taels of silver in total. Of course, Uncle Dou will stay here for two years.
I will definitely need a lot of things in the future, so you can pay some in advance and I will keep it in the account so that you don’t have to come to collect the bills all the time. Don’t worry, I, Qin Xiao, dare not say anything else, but when it comes to honesty, I am second to none.
, I’m afraid no one in this world dares to be called number one. Long-term business is based on honesty, and I won’t make any mistakes.”
Dou Ba's face showed anger: "You mean, you still have to pay for these things?"
"Don't these things take money?" Qin Xiao said with a surprised look on his face: "Uncle Dou, tell me where I can find things that don't cost money, and I will rush there immediately."
Dou Ba sneered and said: "I understand, you want to sell things in the prison. No wonder... the people in the cells in front have all used money, right?"
At this time, Bouncer Dou finally suddenly realized that no wonder the people in this cell were living a carefree life, with food, drink, and comfortable living. It turned out that they all spent money.
Just now in front of the nursing room door, the jailer winked at Qin Xiao. At that time, Dou Ba didn't understand what was going on, but now he understood that what the jailer meant was that there was a new business coming to his door.
Qin Xiao still looked sincere and nodded: "Uncle Dou, this is not an inn, but a prison. The prison has its own rules. According to the rules, not to mention fine wine and food, not even a needle can be brought in easily.
"The people detained in Jiazi Prison are all heroes. I have worshiped heroes since I was a child. Seeing you suffering here makes me feel more distressed than you." He smiled bitterly and shook his head: "I have always thought about what I can do for you.
, then I thought about it, since I can come and go freely in Prison A, if you have any shortcomings, can't I help you bring them in? "
Dou Ba snorted coldly, with a look of disdain on his face.
"Running errands is naturally what I should do, but everything costs money. My monthly salary is only two taels of silver. I have to support my family, and I can't afford it from my own pocket." Qin Xiao sighed,
He put the small notebook into his arms with a look of helplessness on his face.
Dou Ba said: "Okay, if you run errands for others, you should get money, but the total of those things just now will never exceed one tael of silver. You are so open-minded, you want nine taels of silver?" Pointing to the toilet, he said, "Buy it.
A young maid with only twenty or thirty taels of silver can do everything. If you find an old lady who cleans the toilet every day, you can't even make two taels of silver a year. You actually want me to have one tael of silver a month. I think you should just do it.
Go out and grab it with your big knife."
"I am a police officer, how can I rob?" Qin Xiao immediately shook his head: "Even if I starve to death, I will not do anything illegal. You said the things are too expensive, but think about how much risk I took to do it.
Get the things in. The rules in the yamen are very strict. If the superiors find out about this, my job will be over. From now on, I will not even be able to receive a living wage to support my family. I have to hide this matter and take care of my brother.
Everyone, everyone has to get some hush money, so...Uncle Dou, this is actually very cheap. When I do business, what I pay attention to is that the goods are genuine and fair, and I will never buy or sell by force. Uncle Dou has
If you need it, I will do my best to help you. If you don’t need it, I will never force you to buy it.”
Dou Ba rolled his eyes and said, "Then get out of here, I don't want anything!"
"Uncle Dou, please don't get angry. Business cannot be done without righteousness. Since you don't need it, then take a good rest." Qin Xiao's face remained unchanged and he still said kindly: "But if you need anything, you can wait until I come over to ask for it.
Come out." He picked up the sack, walked out of the cell, and locked the door. He seemed to have thought of something and said to Dou Ba inside: "Uncle Dou, there is something else I almost forgot to tell you. This prisoner named Jia is a turtle.
The best place in Chengda Prison is that there are many people who want to live in it. If Uncle Dou does not need anything within ten days, then he cannot use the services of the younger generation. Uncle Dou can only move to Prison B or even Prison C.
I'm in jail." After saying that, he bowed slightly and said, "Good night, Uncle Dou!"
Dou Ba was furious. He had just said that he would not buy or sell by force. What Qin Xiao meant by these words was that if he did not use money to buy things, he would be moved to another cell with extremely poor conditions.
After Qin Xiao finished speaking, he turned around and left. He glanced sideways at the No. 8 cell, and a strange smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
When he arrived at Cell No. 7, he stopped in front of the door with a friendly smile on his face. There was a fat prisoner living inside. When he saw Qin Xiao, he came over with a smile on his face. Qin Xiao opened the sack.
He took out an oil paper bag and handed it in: "Uncle Chen, this is the soy pork elbow you asked for. Also, this is Hou'er stuffed rice from Tongqinglou. You put it away. It's a total of four taels of silver. I'll take it from the account."
Reduced for you."
The prisoner took the food and wine without saying any nonsense, and turned around to enjoy it himself.
Room No. 6 was occupied by a slender middle-aged man. When Qin Xiao came over, the man did not come over. Instead, Qin Xiao opened the cell door, went in himself, and closed the door smoothly.
There are tables and chairs in the middle-aged man's room, with a sieve cup and a few dice placed on the table. The man is sitting cross-legged on the bed, seemingly closing his eyes to recuperate. When Qin Xiao comes closer and opens the sack, the middle-aged man opens his eyes.
Opened a crack and squinted into the bag.
I saw Qin Xiao actually taking out a yellowed book from inside. Before he could say anything, the middle-aged man reached out and grabbed it, stuffed it into the quilt, and looked outside the cell, as if he was guilty of being a thief.
, asked in a low voice: "You didn't tell anyone, did you?"
"Uncle God of Gamblers, don't worry, absolutely no one knows." Qin Xiao lowered his voice and said: "This book [Jade Tuanfang] is very difficult to find. I relied on my connections and finally bought a copy from Master Zhao. I heard that now
The investigation was strict, Master Zhao finished writing the last book and was ready to close it."
"Closed?" Uncle God of Gamblers said hurriedly: "What was the last book he wrote?"
"I heard it's a love story between a servant and his mistress." Qin Xiao said: "Master Zhao said that since it was the last book, he would try his best to write the most exciting story, and he also invited Master Ma to draw.
"
The God of Gamblers was obviously excited and grabbed Qin Xiao's arm: "And the illustration book? Master Ma's painting skills are amazing, I didn't expect that he could also draw...!" Seeing Qin Xiao staring straight into his eyes, he immediately
He coughed twice and said: "Master Zhao, a great writer of his generation, it's a pity that he closed his book so quickly. Well, it's mainly because the environment is not good, and there's nothing we can do about it. Xiaozi, since it's Master Zhao's last work, you must help me get it done."
Get a copy, the one with illustrations."
Qin Xiao nodded and said: "Don't worry, Uncle God of Gamblers. I heard it will be out at the end of this month. I will get you a copy immediately, but... the price will be very expensive."
"Money has never been a problem." The God of Gamblers said boldly: "Has my sworn brother ever treated you badly?"
Qin Xiao glanced at the quilt and asked in a low voice: "Uncle God of Gamblers, what kind of book is this? You used to run a casino, so I thought you didn't like reading."
"You don't know what book it is?" The God of Gamblers looked at Qin Xiao and asked suspiciously. Qin Xiao nodded sincerely: "You know, I can't read a few words, and I don't recognize these books when they are placed in front of me. Take them
When I got to the book, Master Zhao also told me that I was young and these books were too learned, so I shouldn't peek at them. He was a highly respected man, so I would naturally abide by what he said."
The God of Gamblers immediately looked solemn, nodded and said: "Master Zhao is right, these books are very profound, you are too young, it is not the time to study these knowledge." He patted Qin Xiao on the shoulder: "I still have half a year.
I am about to go out. Before I leave, I will leave these books that I have collected with you so that you can study them carefully at that time."
Qin Xiao grinned, looking innocent and cheerful: "Uncle God of Gamblers, actually I don't like reading very much, I prefer gambling. I have already learned almost all the tricks you taught me last time, can you teach me some more?
Something else.”
The God of Gamblers coughed and said, "I have to study knowledge today and don't have time. I'll talk about it in two days."
"Uncle God of Gamblers, look at me helping you pay attention to Master Zhao's final works, the ones with illustrations. With all your efforts, you can't...!" Qin Xiao looked aggrieved.
The God of Gamblers thought for a moment, and finally said: "That's all, I will teach you my secret technique of squeezing the bottom of the box today. You must not teach it to others." He stretched out his right hand to hold the sieve cup, and copied it with great speed.
He actually put all the dice on the table into the sieve cup, shook the sieve cup, and said with a serious face: "This trick is called the God descending from the earth. Back then, I was a beggar from the street, and became one of the best sages in Xiling. Finally, I was killed."
He is called the God of Gamblers because of this trick. Once you learn this trick, you will be invincible in the casinos. It is really easy to open ten or eight casinos and have beautiful wives and concubines."
As the God of Gamblers shook the sieve cup, Qin Xiao's expression became serious.
"Do you want big or small?" The God of Gamblers also looked solemn: "There are five dice inside. The largest number is thirty and the smallest is five. Do you want big or small?"
He shook the sieve cup and spoke at the same time, his face not red, his heart not beating, and he was calm and collected.
"I...I want...!" Qin Xiao was a little nervous: "I want...big!"
"boom!"
The God of Gamblers placed the sieve cup on the table, crossed his arms, looked at Qin Xiao with a look of displeasure on his face, and said, "Open it yourself!"
Qin Xiao stretched out his hand, held the sieve cup, and glanced at the God of Gamblers. The God of Gamblers crossed his arms across his chest, looking confident and unpredictable. He nodded to Qin Xiao and encouraged him to open the sieve cup.
Qin Xiao raised his hand and opened the sieve cup.
Five dice, three dice are three points, one dice is four points, and one dice is six points, the total is nineteen points.
"Uncle God of Gamblers, this...?" Qin Xiao originally thought that God of Gamblers would definitely roll out thirty points, but he didn't expect that it would only be nineteen points, and a look of frustration suddenly appeared on his face.
The God of Gamblers also looked over, with a look on his face. When he saw the points, his face turned red, but his posture remained unchanged. He coughed and said: "This is an example for you. Those incompetent people, the points that are shaken out are
If you use this technique in a casino, you will lose everything." But he muttered in his heart: "I have been too obsessed with love literature recently, and my techniques have become more complicated, and this is not possible."
