On the second floor of the big brother's gambling house, Wang Sheng wanted to give some advice to Gan Qi, so after sitting down, Dama Jindao said, "Big brother's gambling house is a good name, but I don't know whose eldest brother is?"

Gan Qi smiled and said, "Your Madam Sheng doesn't have to beat around the bush, please let Your Madam be straightforward."

"Okay, then be more straightforward. Let's talk about how this Luzi Lucky Turntable was built?" Wang Sheng said, not exceeding Gan Qi's expectations.

Gan Qi knew that today's things could not be done well, and it was not something that could be solved by paying some protection fees.

Not to mention the hatred of killing people, just talking about the popularity of this gambling house. If Gan Qi, the elder brother, opened the gambling house for ten days and eight months, where would the Heihu Gang's gambling house have a way out?

The Black Tiger Gang's gambling house has no way to survive, and Wang Sheng can't make up for this hole if he collects Ganqi's protection fee.

Wang Sheng is not the kind of person who is ruthless and accepts what he wants. Today, he has seen it. What he values ​​is not the protection fee or the gambling house of Gan Qi. What he values ​​is the method of making the big turntable, which is the most fundamental thing.

"Master Sheng, it's just a turntable, what else is shameful? Master Sheng looked at the frame on the road and understood it, and it's just turned around." Gan Qi said.

Wang Sheng frowned and said, "Ganqi, why should I not eat the punishment for toasting like this?"

Wang Sheng is not stupid. How can the rotation method of the wheel be the same as that of the turntable? If the wheel method is used, the rotation will require a minor repair every two days and a major repair every three days, because the wheels of this era are often required.

Repairing from time to time is a small problem. Another thing is that the wheels are hard friction connection methods, and they will inevitably not be able to maintain a smooth operation for a long time. If they cannot turn smoothly for a long time and stop after pushing, they will lose their randomness and lose their randomness. How can this lucky turntable be convincing?

"I wonder what Master Sheng means?" Gan Qi asked innocently.

Wang Sheng looked at Gan Qi's face, his face was slightly gloomy, and stood up and said, "Gan Qi, are you pretending to be stupid with me? Forget it, it seems that you are planning a lot. You really want to compete with me in this dock, and you don't know how high the sky is."

"Sheng Ye is powerful. I'm just starting out and want to make a living." Gan Qi thought of keeping a low profile.

But now, what Gan Qi did is "taught", Wang Sheng said: "You are fighting and killing, maybe you are still a little brave and dare to kill people, but I underestimate you. Now you are more in ambition than the sky, but you don't know that the things in the world are not as simple as you think. You will be unable to lose both people and money, so you can do it yourself."

Wang Sheng had already stood up and went downstairs. Even though he was too lazy to talk to this young man, he felt that he didn't understand what he said.

How can you make such a large amount of money and make such a considerable amount of black money be such a simple thing as fighting and killing?

Wang Sheng just came to see it today. What he saw surprised him and made some sense temporarily. But these are not the main things. The main thing is to put Gan Qi to death. After seeing these things, this matter became even more urgent.

Wang Sheng said that Gan Qi dared to kill people. When Gan Ba's expression changed drastically, he was still thinking about how the news leaked out.

But Gan Qi's face did not change and said, "Sheng Ye, go slowly."

Wang Sheng and a few people left, and Gan Qi stood at the door and thought, how could he not know that things were not that simple?

Gan Ba ​​said worriedly: "Brother, who leaked the news?"

Gan Qi waved his hand and said, "No one has leaked the news."

"Brother, how did Wang Sheng know?" Gan Ba ​​asked.

"How he didn't know, he just guessed something. There are many smart people in the world, so there is no need to be too surprised." Gan Qi replied.

Gan Ba ​​felt much more relaxed when he heard this. Gan Ba ​​thought the matter had been exposed. When he heard that Wang Sheng was just guessing, there was no clear evidence, he became calm. As long as the matter could not reach the government, fighting and killing was nothing.

So Gan Ba ​​said, "Brother, today I will put all the waist knives at home in the gambling house and buy more so that I will not be afraid of him threatening them."

"No need to do this. He will not bring people to the house recently. Smart people have their own ways. I am afraid that officials will come to the house in the past two days." Gan Qi has seen many things. What Wang Sheng said is not that simple. What else can there be except the government?

As for who is in the government, Gan Qi also speculated that it would be impossible for a person like Bao Zheng to serve as a protective umbrella for the Heihu Gang. Even some of the officials below Bao Zheng were almost impossible.

Because those who can be called official are those who have passed the imperial examinations. These people may receive money and gifts, but they do not really work hard to make money in person.

Below the officials, those are officials. These officials are the real people in charge of affairs. Whether it is the head of the yamen or the head of the horse, these are all officials.

In ancient China, not everyone could call it an official. In a county, there was only one official in many cases. The others were officials.

"Brother, is it that Wang Sheng is going to report us to the government?" Gan Ba ​​looked contemptuous. How could a hero from the world do the job of reporting officials in his heart? This is too incompatible with the rules of the world.

"The yamen came to the door just to cause trouble and asked our gambling house to close." Gan Qi explained.

"Brother, how can the yamen officer listen to Wang Sheng's envoy?" Gan Ba ​​seemed to disbelief.

Gan Qi didn't say much, just said, "If the yamen came to the door, remember to notify me as soon as possible."

Ganba nodded.

Gan Qi left the gambling house and was heading towards Xicheng. Outside Xicheng City, there was a gathering place for stonemasons. Gan Qi wanted to order a huge number of bluestone slabs, not only paving the roads in the village, but also paving the roads near the sports field and the stands.

There are also merchants selling burnt bricks outside the West City, and green bricks are also something that Ganqi needs to order in large quantities.

This is the benefit of the development of handicraft industry in the Song Dynasty. Although these things require manpower to be drilled and fired, the quantity supply will not disappoint Gan Qi.

But Gan Qi did not expect that most of the handicraftsmen in Bianliang City had tattoos on their faces. The tattoos were called "Tatou" in the Song Dynasty, and they also represented the identities of these handicraftsmen, mostly from the Imperial Guards.

The population of Bianliang City is more than one million. A large part of them are imperial guards. At this time, the imperial guards in Beijing were stationed for about 100,000. Although they were shipped from time to time, there were also two armies of Pangri and Tianwu stationed for Bianliang. In addition, some others, at least, they would not be less than 100,000.

There was a strange thing about the imperial guards of the Song Dynasty, that is, the control of the military camps was very problematic. The imperial guards did not practice much in the military camp every day, and many went to the general Shangguan's house to work as servants, and even made a lot of people to make their own lives. For example, those who produced bluestone slabs and blue bricks that Gan Qi saw.

If anyone cares about it, no one cares about it. Even the generals and Shangguans were involved. Many of the people behind the handicraft workshops were these generals and Shangguans.

To put it bluntly, the army has participated in business and production. So many strong laborers and do not fight, it is better to produce and make money and make the best use of them. As for whose pocket the money they earn is in, it is hard to explain.

During Wang Anshi's reform, military reform and redundant soldiers were to solve these problems. However, after Wang Anshi, these problems became more and more serious. By the time of Emperor Huizong of the Northern Song Dynasty, countless imperial guards in the capital were completely useless, and their combat power was approaching zero.

This also has a fundamental reason for the Song Dynasty's method of recruiting soldiers. Most of the time in the Song Dynasty, the army played a role not to defend the country, but to appease refugees. Wherever there was a natural disaster, recruit soldiers, recruit all the affected refugees to support them, and avoid the turmoil that arises from rising.
