Chapter 110 Half-face business

 &bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;“Brothers, please press one.”

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;A strange wizard squeezed through the narrow aisle and came to the stands of Astronomy Class 0-. He lowered his voice and peddled to several young wizards who were laughing.

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp; He was wearing an ill-fitting red robe, holding a heavy notebook in his arms, holding a handful of blank papers in his left hand, and an emerald green peacock feather in his right hand.

pen, and a few spare shorthand pens in his breast pocket.

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;Although the sun is shining brightly today and the weather is very good, the wizard always wears a wide hood, almost covering his entire face in the shadow of the hood, leaving only

The next pointy, white chin - if it weren't for his slightly rough voice and the high Adam's apple on his neck, Zheng Qing would have almost mistaken him for a witch.

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;"You are?" Zheng Qing looked at the strange wizard warily and did not answer his question immediately.

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;Although the wizard was wearing a bright red robe from Jiuyou Academy, the sharp-eyed public-funded students immediately identified the wizard from the touch of blue lining his robe.

true identity.

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;This is a Xibei product.

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp; "You can call me 'Half Face'," the strange wizard's white chin tilted slightly, looking a little impatient: "So, does anyone have any feelings about our private little business?

interest?"

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;Zheng Qing’s nose wrinkled...

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;He just didn’t quite understand what kind of business ‘Half Face’ was going to do—he didn’t have much interest in it either.

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;On the contrary, he was more interested in a blue-robed man pretending to be a red-robed man.

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;"Are you from Starry Sky College?" The young public-funded student raised his eyebrows and asked doubtfully: "Why are you wearing the robe of our college?"

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;"Why is Da Yin hiding in the market?" He laughed half-heartedly and urged: "Does anyone want to come and play with two hands and one copper coin? There is no limit on the top! The highest odds are one to nine.

One hundred and ninety-nine, for one jade coin, all your expenses before registering as a wizard will be covered!"

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;“Gambling?” Zheng Qing finally understood the business of this strange wizard and couldn’t help but exclaimed.

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;The witches sitting in the front row seemed to hear the shouts of the public-funded students, and turned their heads curiously and glanced this way.

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;‘Half Face’ obviously doesn’t like this way of exposure.

"To be precise, it's gambling, or you can call it 'gambling hunting'." The strange wizard corrected Zheng Qing's wording and argued: "This is a game that tests your luck and vision.

A small game to add a little more interest to this boring hunting meeting. Of course, just like the hunting game, our contract clearly stipulates that the use of illegal drugs such as 'Fortune Elixir' is prohibited, otherwise the prize money will be confiscated and additional fines will be imposed.

If you are interested, you can specify the details when signing the contract."

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;“It sounds quite formal.” Xiao Xiao looked away from the telescope, showing some interest: “Who opened the handicap? Does the school know? Where was the contract made?

?Is there a security deposit?”

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;“As expected of a doctor, he is indeed sharp.” He gave Xiao Xiao a thumbs-up with half of his face and praised him.

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;“Do you know me?” Xiao Xiao adjusted his glasses, looking a little surprised.

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp; Half of his face smiled lowly, his eyes passing over the bodies of several wizards.

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp; "The public-funded student of the 0th class of Jiuyou Academy, the young Merlin Medal winner Zheng Qing; the irritable child of the Zhang family; the blue giant from the Rhine; and you, a learned and mysterious man

Special enrollment." The peacock feathers of the quill in the strange wizard's hand touched several wizards one by one, and he spoke quickly:

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;"If we didn't know you, we wouldn't do business with you. You know, not every freshman is qualified to invest in this small business. Since we are doing this business, naturally

In terms of information, we will be better informed. It is no exaggeration to say that everything in the school, big and small, and people big and small are somewhat documented here. In the final analysis, this business is just to create an 'information gap'. "

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;“You?” Zheng Qing narrowed his eyes and repeated.

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;“Do you think I alone can support this business in this university with hidden dragons and crouching tigers?” Half of his face let out a short laugh—it sounded more like a mockery.

He snorted - and then he made an exaggerated gesture of thanks: "It's such an honor."

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;“But does the school allow students to gamble?” Zheng Qing asked curiously.

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;"There is no explicit prohibition on this kind of thing in the management regulations of First University." He shrugged half-faced and replied easily: "'It is allowed even if it is not prohibited by law.' Since there is no prohibition, then

Naturally, I allowed it. Maybe the school believes that 'luck' and 'vision' are also a kind of spiritual practice."

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;Zheng Qing ignored his reasoning and turned to look at Xiao Xiao.

"There are indeed no regulations in this regard." Xiao Xiao nodded, but at the same time he shook his head: "But this does not mean that the school allows us to do this kind of thing. Just like the First University Management Regulations

There is no clear rule that students cannot kill each other, but we all know that this kind of thing is absolutely not allowed."

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;Dr. Xiao Da’s explanation is obviously more authoritative and more reasonable than Half a Face.

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;Half of the face was immediately speechless.

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;“However, since someone dares to do such a thing, naturally there is some confidence.” Xiao joked and turned his attention, focusing on half of his face again: “So, who did it?

Handicap? If we really do business, you should always let us feel at ease."

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;"Me." After the word popped out half of his face, he sneered: "Just like you said, although this kind of thing does not violate the school rules and disciplines, it still violates the 'moral order and good customs'

, which boss would be so stupid as to go into battle shirtless."

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;When Zheng Qing heard the word ‘good morals’, he always felt a strange sense of déjà vu.

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;But he couldn’t remember where he had encountered this word.

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;"What about the deposit? Where is the guarantor? There should be these, right?" Xiao Xiao played with his brush and looked at half of his face with burning eyes: "If there is nothing, who dares

Sign a contract with you."

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;Half Face did not deny it this time, but took out a golden card from his arms and handed it to Zheng Qing.

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;"Wandering Bar's gold card?" Zheng Qing touched the familiar texture of the card and was surprised. At the same time, he reached out and took out his own gold card from his gray cloth bag, compared it, and clicked

He turned his head and looked at Xiao Xiao: "It is indeed the same."

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;"Wandering barbarians?" Xiao Xiao took the card and pondered.

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp; "The contracts we use are all standard 'white contracts' provided by the Wandering Bar. They are not named or paid to guarantee the reputation of the wandering wizards." It seemed that he noticed that the attitudes of several wizards were a little loose.

The half-faced man greeted him enthusiastically: "We are all students, having fun and earning some pocket money. Who would alert the school's great wizard for a few jade coins?"

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;What he said was well-founded and convincing.

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;Even Zheng Qing was a little moved.

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp; "Wandering Bar still has a good reputation." Zhang Jixin suddenly interrupted and said from the side: "I just felt a little familiar with this 'village'. I heard my brother said that it was run in school.

It’s been a long time, but it doesn’t have a bad reputation.”

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;"Your brother? Zhang Shuzhi or Zhang Zhongli?" Banzhang Lian seemed to be familiar with Hong Lian'er's family, and casually mentioned: "Both of them have done business with us, but Zhang Zhongli entered the research institute."

I haven’t practiced much since then, and I haven’t seen him recently.”

&bp;&bp;&bp;&bp;“It’s Brother Zhi.” Zhang Jixin’s face turned dark: “He is still in his junior year of college this year.”
