Chapter 102: A Deal 5

Zhang Tieyuan placed the dice back into the cup excitedly and shook it vigorously a few times. After that, he put it on the table and then, with eyes blazing like a torch, he opened the cup.

He shouted.

“Three four six, thirteen on the high!”

Just seeing the points was enough for Zhang Tieyuan to burst out into manic laughter excitedly.

“Hahahahaha, I won. Pay up, pay up!”

Everyone else who had been watching did not look surprised. Qi Qingyao’s points from before were just too low. It was indeed really easy for him to beat her tally.

Qi Qingyao was also easy-going about the outcome. Noting his points, she smiled and took out two taels of silver, pushing them across the table surface and over to Zhang Tieyuan.

“Two taels of silver.”

Zhang Tieyuan picked up the silver happily, his face glowing red.

He had gone in empty-handed and won two taels of silver. Hahaha…

Zhang Cuiyun was also stunned.

She would not be sold off now, right?

Her father now had two extra taels to spare now, so surely she would not have to be sold off, right?

Qi Qingyao looked at Zhang Tieyuan who was in high spirits and enunciated four words calmly, ” Want to go again?”

Zhang Tieyuan was slightly startled. Carefully, he covered the two taels of silver within his arms as he observed the young lady. “Haven’t you lost enough?”

“This is my first time playing, I still have money and can afford to lose some more.” Saying this, Qi Qingyao emptied all the silver in the money pouch onto the table surface.

One hundred taels of silver on the table; to ordinary folk, this amount was equivalent to the impact of one putting one million yuan on the table. It was indeed enticing.

It rendered every single one of them dumbfounded.

Zhang Tieyuan’s eyes were also firing up.

Si Jin sat behind Qi Qingyao surreptitiously, his smile especially sweet. “Sister, do you still intend to play?”

Qi Qingyao rubbed Si Jin’s head as she smiled peacefully. She then said indifferently, “Of course, how can I not? If I lose, I’ll consider it as assisting the poor, isn’t that a good thing?”

Zhang Tieyuan heard her comments about assisting the poor, and his face started flushing red with excitement as he looked at the plentiful silver on the table. He laid his hand on the dice cup and fixed his eyes on Qi Qingyao.

“I like rich people like you who can afford to lose. Come, let’s continue gambling,” he said boldly. It would be great if he could win two more taels of silver this round.

Qi Qingyao took 20 taels out of the silver (pile) and placed them in the middle of the table.

“I’ll bet 20 taels this round, are you able to match it?”

“…” Zhang Tieyuan almost stopped breathing.

20 taels!

The onlookers’ expressions also froze.

What on earth was the Eleventh Daughter trying to pull with betting 20 taels?

She had lost two taels previously, and now for the second round, even if she wanted to play again, it was enough for her to bet two taels at most, or just one tael to test the waters.

Instead of whatever she was doing now.

Twenty taels…

They were a little worried; if Old Man Zhang wins this hand, then he… would he not have struck it rich?

Thinking of this complicated everyone’s emotions.

Zhang Tieyuan did not have twenty taels, so of course, he could not gamble that much.

Qi Qingyao was considerate about it, “How about this, if you win, I’ll give you twenty taels, but if you lose, you will give me back the two taels. How about that?’”

When he heard that he did not have to gamble anything on his side, Zhang Tieyuan agreed excitedly, “Alright! I’ll bet you.”

Zhang Cuiyun was very nervous instead. If he lost, then the two taels would be no more. Then she would still have to be sold off then…

That was why Zhang Cuiyun rushed in and urged, “Father, you shouldn’t be gambling anymore. You wanted money and now we already have two taels. Why don’t you let it go?”

Zhang Tieyuan glared at his idiotic daughter and cursed, “You fool! You want me to stop now? She’s a beginner, and she’s rich. My luck is booming so I definitely won’t lose. Besides, even if I lose, I wouldn’t have lost anything. Don’t you understand that?”
