Siheyuan: Security Office of Wude

"What's wrong, Dongxu?"

"Yesterday I was drinking with my buddy, and he introduced me to a business that could make me rich."

"Can I get rich?" Jia Zhang's triangular eyes lit up immediately. After all, money was her biggest pursuit. "What kind of business is it?"

"You wouldn't understand even if I told you about buying and selling things, but mom, you need capital to run a business, and I'm short of money. Can you lend me a few dozen dollars of your retirement money first?"

Jia Zhang wanted to get rich, to get very rich, but when he heard Jia Dongxu asking him to borrow money, he immediately turned his head away and said, "No! I don't have any money!" He wanted to make money but didn't want to pay the due cost. To put it bluntly, he was just daydreaming.

"Mom, I know you have money, so please lend me some. When I make a lot of money, I will definitely buy meat every day to honor you."

Jia Zhangshi was lazy and gluttonous. She had lived on the lunch boxes provided by Sha Zhu during the famine years. When she heard Jia Dongxu say that he bought meat every day, Jia Zhangshi swallowed subconsciously.

“Can your business really make money?”

When Jia Dongxu heard that Jia Zhang was wavering, he quickly struck while the iron was hot: "Of course, Mom, how can your son lie to you? How about this, as long as you lend me money for business this time, I will give you five dollars a month for your retirement."

"Five dollars!"

Jia Zhang's eyes lit up again. She now received three yuan a month for pension. If it was increased to five yuan a month, even if she couldn't get the thirty yuan back, she could get her money back in just fifteen months, and she could save even more afterwards.

When it comes to money, Jia Zhang's fat-filled brain starts to work like crazy.

"Dongxu, what you said is true, you can't lie to mom"

"Mom, of course I won't lie to you. I will respect you well in the future!"

Jia Dongxu now wants to get the capital to gamble and turn things around, and he writes empty checks casually.

Jia Zhang was finally tempted by the bad check from Jia Dongxu, and took out three big black tens from her pension fund and gave them to Jia Dongxu.

Jia Dongxu got the money and started to show off again. After Qin Huairu finished cooking, he drank two mouthfuls of cornmeal porridge, put down the bowl and went out.

"Dongxu, where are you going again?" Qin Huairu opened her mouth and shouted, but how could she stop the gambler's desire to gamble?

Jia Zhang rolled her eyes and said, "Dongxu is going to do something important, don't waste your time. If you don't want to eat, go wash your clothes!"

"What big things can Jia Dongxu do as a second-level worker? Just don't get into big trouble."

Qin Huairu was worried, but there was nothing she could do. She could only sit down and drink the cornmeal porridge in silence.

After Jia Dongxu took the 30 yuan gambling capital given by his mother, he went to the pigeon market and bought two packs of Daqianmen without tickets (36 cents a pack with non-staple food tickets, 45 cents a pack without tickets in the pigeon market), lit it up and took two deep puffs.

"These expensive cigarettes taste different. Dad, please bless me. If I become rich this time, I will provide you with good cigarettes and good wine every year!"

Jia Dongxu muttered something in his mind for a while, then walked towards the casino with high morale, not noticing the two figures following behind him.

These two are Liu Neng's security guards. Because the primary responsibility of the Security Department is to fight against enemy spies, tracking and investigation is a necessary means, so security guards must at least undergo basic tracking and anti-tracking training.

Jia Dongxu is just an ordinary worker. It is impossible for him to have received anti-tracking training, so of course he could not detect it.

The two security guards were hanging far behind Jia Dongxu, watching him walk to a very remote yard. After knocking on the door several times in a rhythmic manner, someone in the yard came to open the door. Jia Dongxu said a few words to the person and handed him two cigarettes. The person then asked Jia Dongxu to come in, then looked around vigilantly and closed the door.

Two guards were lying in ambush behind a small haystack.

"It looks like this is the place. You stay here and I'll go inform the section chief and see if he has any instructions."

Jia Dongxu didn't know what was going on outside. He walked into the casino. The dim room had only a few dim incandescent lights. The smell of cigarettes and sweat mixed together, making him feel sick.

But amidst the awful smell, the sounds of dice rolling, card game, shuffling, people crying for their parents when they lost money, and people laughing wildly when they won made Jia Dongxu dizzy, his blood quickening, and he was so excited that he even forgot his own father's last name.

'Dear Casino, your Uncle Jia is back again!'

Chapter 42 Jia Dongxu is showing off

In the dim casino, Jia Dongxu held up the corner of the card, staring at the card with bloodshot eyes.

"Boy, how long are you going to keep watching?!"

"You are staring at your wife's crotch, but you can't see a flower!"

A bearded man sitting across from the gambling table shouted in displeasure, and his words also made the surrounding gamblers laugh.

Jia Dongxu put down his cards and said, "Whatever you want to yell about, I'll watch as long as I want!"

"I think you can't afford to lose. You got a bunch of rubbish cards and you're afraid of losing money, so you just want to buy time for me, right?"

"This time it's just you and me. We won't be able to delay much longer."

Jia Dongxu said arrogantly: "How can I not afford to lose?! Hurry up and open your cards for me. Anyone who doesn't is a coward!"

"Haha, then you're definitely going to be the coward!"

The bearded man flipped open the three cards in his hand.

"7, 8, 9, straight!"

When Jia Dongxu saw the man's cards, he sighed heavily. The bearded man laughed and said, "Haha, all this money belongs to me!" Then he stood up and tried to collect the money on the table.

At this time, Jia Dongxu suddenly sneered and said:

"What do you mean it belongs to you, you idiot? I haven't even looked at my cards yet!"

With the help of a mysterious background music that no one could hear, Jia Dongxu revealed his cards with an extremely showy expression.

"Three 2s, Leopard!"

Although Jia Dongxu had the smallest set of 2 leopards, it was still bigger than a straight. The bearded man widened his eyes, and his face, which had turned pale due to staying up late for a long time, slowly turned red. He pointed at Jia Dongxu and shouted:

"Why are you pretending to sigh when you got a fucking leopard?!"

Jia Dongxu lit up a cigarette provocatively and said sarcastically, "I'm just complaining about my bad luck. I finally got a deck of leopards, but the person I gambled with was a poor guy. In the end, I only won a small amount of money. It was such a waste of this hand of cards!"

"you!"

The bearded man was so angry that his face turned red. He pointed at Jia Dongxu tremblingly, but he couldn't get angry.

After all, the casino doesn't care about the law. If you break the rules, the casino won't let you off. If you lose any parts, it will be bad.

Jia Dongxu took the money on the table with a smug look on his face. The bearded man lost all the money he brought for gambling today and could only leave in disappointment.

I don't know if it's just luck or if Lao Jia is really blessing Xiao Jia.

Jia Dongxu was very lucky today. He only lost two small bets when he sat down at the gambling table.

As a result of his good luck, Jia Dongxu left the casino with a full 120 yuan in cash.

After making up for the 50 yuan he lost and the 30 yuan he borrowed from Jia Zhang, Jia Dongxu made a net profit of more than 40 yuan.

I earned a middle-level worker's monthly salary in one night.

When Jia Dongxu went home, his steps were floating.

"For someone as capable as me, making money is really easy. When I make enough money in a few days, I will go to Pigeon City to get a ticket and buy a bicycle first. When I get tired of riding the bicycle, I will change to a motorcycle. When I get tired of the motorcycle, I will change to a car. Hahahaha... By then, Bai Wanli and the like will be nothing in front of me!"

Jia Dongxu imagined his bright future and staggered back to the courtyard.

"Open the door, open the door!"

In order to prevent thieves and enemy agents from infiltrating, the gates of all the courtyards were closed at night. Upon hearing the noise, Yan Bugui, who lived in the front yard, came out wearing his coat to open the door.

"Jia Dongxu? Where did you go in the middle of the night?"

Jia Dongxu took out the remaining two Daqianmen from his pocket and threw them to Yan Bugui

"Open your door properly, why are you talking so much nonsense?"

If you can't pretend, then the money you earn is meaningless, so Uncle Jia will pretend today.

"I've made a lot of money now, I don't care about Daqianmen or anything like that, I'm going to get two packs of Huazi tomorrow to smoke."

Yan Bugui looked down and saw Daqianmen. He went home quietly without saying anything.

He couldn't bear to smoke such good cigarettes. He would just lose face if it didn't bring any benefits.

Jia Dongxu went home proudly. As soon as he entered the door, the voices of Qin Huairu and Jia Zhangshi rang out one after another.

"Dongxu, you're back?"

"Dongxu, did you make any money?"

Under normal circumstances, Jia Zhang would have been sleeping like a dead pig, and her snoring would have disturbed others' sleep. But today, Jia Dongxu took her money to "do business", and Jia Zhang couldn't sleep. It can be seen that money is definitely the first driving force in Jia Zhang's life.

With money in his pocket, Jia Dongxu is very confident.

"Of course, look!" Jia Dongxu took out the thirty-five yuan that had been divided long ago from his pocket, "Mom, your thirty yuan is not less than a cent, and these five yuan are for your retirement money, you take it."

Jia Dongxu didn't want Jia Zhangshi to know how much he earned today, otherwise she would have to take away most of it.

I have to say that no one knows a mother better than her son. These two are really the same, both are of the same kind.

Jia Dongxu now has money in his pocket. Not only can he eat and drink well outside, but he can also go to the secret door to find two women to play with. He must find two women, play with one and kick one.

Anyway, he was tired of Qin Huairu's looks. Besides, he was so rich now, why did he have to stay with this yellow-faced woman for the rest of his life?

When Jia Zhang saw that not only had all her money returned, but she also had five more dollars in one night, she immediately smiled.

Jia Dongxu threw another large piece of pork to Qin Huairu

"Take the meat and stew it in the morning."

Qin Huairu looked at the piece of pork, which weighed at least four or five pounds, and swallowed subconsciously.

"Stew meat so early in the morning? Aren't we going to wait until you get home from get off work in the evening to eat it?"

"Look at your petty look. Of course I will buy another piece of meat when I come back in the evening. I'm making a lot of money now, so how can I be without this piece of meat at home?"

Jia Zhang's eyes lit up and she said, "That's right, my son is capable. From now on, our family will not only eat meat every day, but also eat meat for every meal!"

When Jia Dongxu gets arrogant, he looks like a villain who has achieved success. His mother, Jia Zhang, is no less arrogant.

For example, Yi Zhonghai's monthly salary plus subsidies is over 100 yuan, which is enough for the couple to eat meat every day. However, in order to avoid others' jealousy, Yi Zhonghai eats meat secretly behind closed doors.

If it were Jia Zhang, she would want everyone to know that their family eats and drinks well, otherwise how can they show the style of the Jia family as a "large (extant) family"?

'You're eating so much that you're going to die!'

Qin Huairu complained in her heart, but she didn't say anything, because she was also craving for this.

The next morning, amidst the curses, the aroma of Jia's meat filled the whole courtyard.
