The Song Dynasty gambling was rich and colorful, including balls, chess, dices, birds, passers-by, etc., and the participants, from scholars and emperors, to ordinary people, to rogues, and even rogues, were all inclusive. Ouyang Xiu and Li Qingzhao, who are known to everyone, are all good.

Ouyang is familiar with the ball game. He has broken through multiple peripheral groups, but these peripheral groups cannot control the game. Ouyang is just a purely gambling nature. In Ouyang's opinion, the gambling technology that cannot control the game is not high, so he lost four out of ten bets.

Ouyang is so unfamiliar with chess, and chess only knows the basic rules. He bets entirely based on the reputation of the two, and he admits that he loses 60%.

Fighting birds are rare in modern times. Ouyang doesn’t know much and loses a lot.

Guanpu only had New Year's Day, and the Cold Food Festival and the Winter Solstice could be held. In the early Song Dynasty, the management of gambling was very strict, and basically the word "Zhun". Later, the emperor loved the gambling career, and the law became empty. Especially in the late Northern Song Dynasty where Ouyang was, the folk officialdom and literati gambling became popular. In the Yuan Dynasty, it became even more amazing. The emperor decided to promote an official and threw dice in the hall.

There are also bets in dice, but the popular way of playing with upper-class characters is to play chess boards, similar to the current flying chess. If you have money and identity, you can use beauties to make chess pieces, which is quite lewd.

Only the last type of Ouyang feels most confident, that is coin gambling. The first type is to take a bunch of money to shake it, buy one, two, three, and four. After the last four are opened, the last few are divided into a group, and the last few are considered a few. This gambling method is called money-spending, and the other is called throwing money, which is the front and back side that children can play now.

Although Xincheng County is a small county, there are two gambling houses. However, compared with the capital Bianjing, the size of the gambling houses is quite small.

Ou Ping said nervously: "Young Master, sir, say gambling is the source of all evil."

"Mr. I was still squeezing a table with me on the first day of the Lunar New Year this year." Ouyang explained: "You are waiting outside. If I don't come out after an hour, I will go to the eldest master to save me."

"But……"

"Listen to me, there's nothing wrong." Ouyang looked at the signboard of the gambling house: Sihai Gambling House. He smiled in his heart. I don't know if it's me who is good at gambling or the ancients are even more magical. Ouyang is not good at gambling, because he has hardly seen anyone who makes money by gambling, and he has never seen any casino fraud that will end up well.

...

Fat Sheep! Ouyang lifted the curtain and entered the gambling house. Dozens of people present recited a noun at the same time. Judging from his age, his face was as beautiful as jade, his clothes were smooth, and his black hair was clearly tied. It was obvious that the young master from which family was curious to come here again for fun.

A guy immediately stepped forward: "What are you going to have to do with your son?"

“What’s simpler?”

It was indeed a young man! The guy was overjoyed and said, "You guys might as well play with money. Look." A dealer understood and grabbed a handful of copper coins in a jar and put them into the bowl. The two bowls were combined and started to shake. Put the bowls together, and the idle bets on one, two, three, and four. The dealer opened the money and poured the money on the table, then used chopsticks to spread every four copper coins, and finally one two left. Then he paid two or three times, double double, and ate the chips of one, three, and four.

What a clumsy technique, Ouyang could see at a glance that the dealer had a thousand. There was a copper plate hidden in his rolled sleeve, and his arms were slightly forward and then downward. The copper plate fell into the bowl under the cover of his arms and mixed into the pile of copper coins. This technique can only hide one copper coins, and there will be a sound if there are too many. That is, the dealer is willing to pay for a snack. As for how the dealer knows the amount of copper coins he caught, maybe the problem is in the jar, maybe the dealer can judge by weight, Ouyang couldn't see it for a while.

If you don’t pay a thousand, if you pay a thousand, this young master will win. Ouyang smiled foolishly and said, “This is fun.”

"Please sit down, youngster, I'll pour you water."

Ouyang sat down, grabbed his head and grabbed a handful of money from his purse, then counted, took out two hundred coins, and put the rest back. The dealer started to cow money, and afterwards, he placed the bowl on the table and greeted him: "Buy more and pay more, buy less and pay less, place a bet."

One: fifty-money. Two: three hundred-money. Three: three hundred-money. Four: three hundred-money. Ouyang took a breath, will he open one or four this time? Is it single or double? Is it a gambler despised, it turns out that the number three is a entrusted! Brother, please be more professional, it looks like you are wearing so cold clothes, but after these three hundred-moneys, it seems that there is no desire to see the result at all.

Now it is in the number one, three, and four. Ouyang shook his head. The betting is not as simple as he imagined, especially when he only knows modern gambling tools. Now he understands why the simpler the betting game, the more impossible it is to get a thousand. Two singles and one pair, I am not brave. Ouyang took out two hundred documents and put it on the list. If the store owner is smart, he should win the first game.

"Open!" The dealer shouted after fiddling with it: "One, pay for one, eat double, pay for one, eat two, three, four."

No, this is too dangerous and difficult to control. Ouyang stood up: "It's so noisy, is there a place to be cleaner."

The guy on the side immediately said attentively: "It's better to try the size of the young master."

"oh?"

The guy led Ouyang inside to a private room, which was very quiet. There was a table with four people, a dealer, a young woman with a rich charm, a half-sitting foot on a bench, and a middle-aged man who looked like a businessman.

The guy introduced: "Three dices, the leopard is the largest, and the compensation is doubled. If four and four, one is a point. If four and four six is ​​a point, it is six points. If three handfuls are not right, it is no point."

"Okay, this is interesting."

"Young Master plays slowly."

The young woman played with the dice and said, "Young Master, we don't have the same thing as before."

"I have, I have a lot of consistent practices!" Ouyang took out eight hundred essays and put on the two hundred essays he had just won.

"Lao Jiu, then start!" The young woman threw the dice in the bowl.

"Sanniang said to start, then of course start." The dealer Lao Jiu said: "Everyone bets."
