Chapter 47 46. ​​Waiting for the "bull game"

After Sheng Yu's policeman brother left, everyone continued the gamble just now, but I could see everyone's respect for the policeman.Sheng Yu is always encouraging the person who sits at the door and wins money to give up his seat to him. He is anxious to get me on the table.According to his train of thought, he would grab one first, and then pull me into the stake, and he would deal the cards. If he lost, he could naturally let me sit on it to change his luck.But I'm not in a hurry, and I don't want to go up and make trouble as soon as I come.But in the crowd, I can't tell Sheng Yu not to be in a hurry, I can only let him go, even if he grabs a seat, I won't share with others.After all, I am a stranger, so I am afraid of arousing everyone's suspicion.

After playing for a while, the dealer was very angry, and I was still pumped by the gatekeeper when I bet money below.I stopped playing after losing 15,000, and I felt like I was going to be crushed.Several people who lost everything went to the living room, and a few who were disgusted with the low bet of throwing stones also went to the living room.I decided to go out and get close to them, so I squeezed out and went to the living room.When he arrived at the living room, Xiao Hai had already had a heated fight with those people.In this regard, I really admire him, he can be familiar with anyone.

Seeing that I came out, Xiaohai immediately beckoned me to sit over and asked me loudly: "Third brother, did you win or lose?" I said, "I lost 14 hands and won 15 hands, and I bet 1,000 yuan for one bet. Win or lose?" Xiao Hai smiled and said: "The third child has won money, and I want to treat you tonight, please invite me a lady." I curled my lips and said, "I lost." He didn't understand.The person next to him helped to explain: "That's because he was beaten by the pumper sitting at the door." Everyone was amused when they heard it, and they all began to complain that the pumping at the door was not very authentic.I say this to resonate with everyone. More than 10,000 yuan is a drizzle in the game. No one will calculate how much I lose, and my jokes can easily narrow the distance between me and the gamblers.

Sure enough, everyone soon felt that their relationship with each other was getting closer.Xiaohai took the opportunity to say to the few people sitting together: "The third child came with me." After that, he asked others about the refinery and chemical products in a serious manner (we had previously agreed to be a small businessman in the chemical business), as if As if he came here specifically to do this business, he is very familiar with this. I was not idle either, I picked up the cigarettes and smoked them one by one.Everyone discussed it, saying that there were too many people and they couldn't grab a place.I took the opportunity to say: "Then why don't we start one more round? It would be nice to start two rounds." Everyone said: "The boss won't allow it, so there will be more people at night, and there will be rounds in the afternoon, so there are not many people." We all gathered around the coffee table and talked. Gossip, after chatting for a while, I realized that everyone is relying on this place not to leave, in fact, they are all waiting for the bull game.

The so-called bull game is a game in Pai Gow where there is no limit to how much money you can bet on a game. For example, if you pay 100,000, you can ask for the deposit at once, or you can bet 1,000 and take it out slowly.When Tokuko was doing trouble at the place where I was watching the game, they played a bull game, so I was able to put 100,000 to ask for his deposit.Another rule of the bull game is that before playing, the banker sets a cap in advance, and the number of games cannot be stopped. If the banker sets 500,000, then he will not even be able to win a total of 499,000 with the capital. If you don't play, the people below can call the bottom at any time.When it reaches 500,000, the banker can choose to continue playing or not to play. If he does not play, he will take away 500,000. If he continues to play, he will start a new game with 100,000.Such a game is called a bull game, and it is called differently in different places.At present, the game in the room inside is to limit the amount of money to bet. No matter how much money the dealer has, the maximum amount of a game cannot exceed 30,000, which is also called bad.

If someone starts a bull game, basically everyone has the opportunity to bet money, and there is no need to stand on the sidelines to watch the excitement.Of course, it doesn't matter who gets the most bet and who gets the cards.I also came here for the bull game, and I saw the opportunity, and when the banker had a lot of money, I won it all at once.Sheng Yu will provide me with funds, so I am not in a hurry. After sitting and talking for a while, Sheng Yu came out of the room, his face flushed, with a handful of money in his hand, and he said repeatedly, "Have fun, fuck it." Everyone asked him what's wrong.He said that if he didn't grab the door, he would always go to the few people who were sitting in the door.One of the people who sat at the door was so annoying that he couldn't stand it anymore, so he asked him to bet himself.Sheng Yu actually won the bet, and won 30,000 in one go. He wanted to bet again, but the life and death of the other party disagreed, so he had to come out.After all, it was tantamount to stealing 30,000 yuan from someone who was sitting in the door. It should have been won by the person sitting in the door, so he felt very satisfied.

While talking, Sheng Yu pointed to a young man in his 30s and said, "Old Kong, have you lost everything again?" Everyone coaxed and laughed, and said, "When did Lao Kong win?" Said: "Brother Sheng Yu, if you win, give it to my buddies." Sheng Yu was also very straightforward, and gave him 500 yuan.Lao Kong took the money and happily went into the inner room to deposit it.Looking at him like that, it's almost the same as when I was defeated in the past.Sure enough, within a minute, Lao Kong came out, his face full of embarrassment, and everyone made fun of him again.We stayed there until after 2 o'clock that night, getting acquainted with everyone.Although I didn't get out of the bull game, I was not in a hurry at all. Even if it was out of the bull game that night, I wouldn't go up and do it.There are still so many people after 2:00, I figured it out, don't waste time here, just go back to the place where I live with Xiao Hai to sleep, there is still tomorrow, isn't it?

The next day Sheng Yu came over at 10 o'clock in the morning and asked me how I was doing?I got to know him again, and according to him, there are a lot of bad games, and there are very few bad games.That’s right, many people who play Pai Gow in the Northeast like to play a good game, and only those who are afraid of losing will play a bad game.But Sheng Yu had been away for a few days. I don't know who suggested that the game should not be good, and everyone seemed to agree.In the end, we summed up, if there is no one to play the bull game, you can pay a little bit, the premise is to sit in the door and the dealer, if someone plays the bull game is the best, everything adapts to the situation.Sheng Yu said that the bureau basically started to organize in the afternoon, but there were not so many people in the evening, so you can go to catch up.So after lunch, we went there again.

We were early, we went to the gaming table and haven't set up yet.We sat and drank tea there, and after a while, gamblers gathered here in groups of twos and twos.Seeing that there were enough people to join the game, Sheng Yu clamored to sit on the bank.He pushes everyone to be the banker, and everyone rushes to be the banker, refusing to give in to each other, comparing each other who can place a big bet (whoever bets the most will be the banker). Before it even started, a dispute arose over this issue.Sheng Yu wants to play a bull game or encourage others to play a bull game, but no one wants to play a bull game.Sheng Yu pulled me and said, "Third brother, let's play a combination of bulls and let everyone bet freely." I looked: Is it a bit too hasty, I still want to take a good look at this Pai Gow game, I don't want to miss it Get out before you know it.So I rejected Sheng Yu, there were so many people, and I couldn't tell him the reason directly, so I had to make excuses and say: "I don't bring any money, so I won't sit with you in the dealership." That means telling him, I don't want to Play and get ready to see it again.Sheng Yu didn't understand what I meant, and said: "Then don't get out of the game. If you are not good, you can get some money from my sister-in-law, and I will guarantee it for you." I saw that he still didn't understand what I meant. , a little anxious, and others will be suspicious.Fortunately, the other gamblers were also in a hurry, and they all demanded to take the banker seat before he was given a chance to speak.Finally, a middle-aged man with a square face asked Zhuang, because he offered 40,000 yuan a door, and many people agreed.Sheng Yu saw that I didn't mean it that way, so he didn't insist anymore, so the game of poker had begun.

There were not as many people as the night before, but there were quite a few. There were probably more than 10 people. Besides Sheng Yu, the other one was Guoren, who was the owner of Sauna Tang, who was sitting at Tianmen; the other was Xin Li, who opened a telephone The face of the door of the machine, sit out the door, they offer the condition is not to pump everyone's water.I am standing behind Sheng Yu, in the position of the last door.Some of the other people got on the kang, some stood on the ground, and some sat on the side with mop chairs. The man who sits in the manor is called Gu Ming. He came in with Lao Kong, and with them was a young man in his twenties, with a crew cut, small stature, and bony eyes. He looked like a smart man.Lao Kong was in charge of helping Gu Ming read the accounts. The young man carried a canvas bag and took out 20 bundles of money from it.

Everyone took apart a deck of poker and helped Gu Ming pick up a deck of Pai Gow with all their might.Gu Ming talked about the rules, nothing more than some words such as not being allowed to use money after playing the dice, and told Lao Kong that he must count the money.After finishing talking, he shuffled the cards, and threw them on the table after the shuffling was done, so that everyone could cut the cards and bet money.After all the money was bet, he lost the dice, Guoren bet 10,000, and Xin Li also 10,000. Sheng Yu then took out a stack and threw it up.Other people in the back threw stones randomly, and soon, the game became popular. I just stood there and savored the game slowly, without betting money, and if there was no problem in total, I would go up and replace Sheng Yu for him if he lost a few hands, and I would always win.The game progressed very slowly, and Gu Ming seemed to be inexperienced, always anxious to see what cards he was dealt every time.According to the rules of Pai Gow, the banker has the right to wait for everyone to match their cards before matching their own cards. During this period, there is a process of observing words and colors, and can infer whether others have big heads or tails based on their expressions.No matter how I look at it, Gu Ming looks like a fool who gambles.People who often gamble only look at their own cards after everyone has finished matching. Those who are afraid of losing will anxiously look at their own cards.Gu Ming's performance was like that, and I felt that he was a bit like Kaizi. Lao Kong lost money very slowly. If the banker won, he could say that he just took the money away. If the banker lost, he would count it from house to house, which took a lot of time.After a while, everyone had opinions on him.For about half an hour, everyone's opinions became more and more serious, and they all complained that Gu Ming asked Lao Kong to settle the account and wasted everyone's time.Lao Kong was more anxious; the more anxious he became, the slower he was, counting the money in a hurry.When others complained, he didn't talk back, just smiled awkwardly.Finally, Guoren couldn't help it, so he said, "Hurry up and go down, you've been wasting time." His tone was very rude, and Xin Li and the others behind him also agreed.Gu Ming saw that everyone had an opinion, so he said to the young man, "Come on." In this way, Lao Kong was replaced.That Xiaopingtou's hands and feet are nimble, and the speed of losing money is much faster than that of Lao Kong, and the speed of the game is obviously accelerated.Everyone's spirits were lifted, and they increased their bets one after another, basically all bets were full. The old Kong who was replaced squatted awkwardly behind Gu Ming (the game was on the kang, where Gu Ming was sitting), it seemed that it was hopeless to help others earn some money for picking happiness.I kind of sympathize with him.Later I found out that his surname was not Kong, because he was always losing, so everyone named him Lao Kong, saying that it came from an allegorical saying: Confucius moved—it was full of books (losing).Everyone can't remember what his original surname was. If someone calls him by his name suddenly, it may be difficult for everyone to connect with Lao Kong.He is actually the protagonist of this story and the chief director of this bureau.
