As for how to get money in a state of poverty, Fang Linyan had thought about it carefully before, and had already got some experience.
After he resumed his action, he jumped directly from the second floor and landed on the ground smoothly. Then he trotted to the dock area where the ships in front frequently docked.
In less than five minutes, Fang Linyan came to the dock area, and then his eyes stayed on a sign:
"giant anchor bar? Well, yes, that's it. "
At this time, although it's not the peak of boarding, the attendance rate of this bar has reached at least 80%.
When pushing open the loose leaf door of the bar, Fang Linyan saw a police station notice beside him. He thought that the standard and color should be the same as the one he had just entered the world. At this time, he had a close look.
It turns out that there has been a murder in the White Chapel area recently. If someone has the relevant clues or directly witnessed it, please come to the police station to explain the situation. If the contributed information is finally confirmed to be useful for solving the case, a gentleman named Doolittle has offered a bonus of three pounds and eleven shillings.
For this matter, Lin Yan just swept by, did not pay attention.
The sound of heat and rude shouts came from the bar. A few mottled copper candlesticks made the light in the bar not so dim. However, the semi detached decoration on the wall and the creaking wooden floor at the foot fully showed that the bar has been for a long time.
Fang Linyan twitched his nose. He was obviously not used to the smell of body odor mixed with liquor in the bar. He adapted to the light and found that there was a huge anchor beside the bar. This must be the origin of the name of the bar.
The water grass and kelp decoration hanging beside the bar is also quite intentional, and the dried garlic string is the characteristic standard of every bar at this time, because it is rumored that this thing can disgust vampires and curb the plague.
Maybe Christmas is coming, and the festive atmosphere in the bar is quite strong. The Christmas tree has already been set up in a corner. Of course, there are no gifts hanging on it. Even the young waitresses in the bar have begun to COS with two horsetail elk.
At this time, the guys drinking here are most likely the decorators and crew of the wharf. These rude guys always have fun when they have two drinks, such as stretching into the waitress's skirt to get a scream, or playing a kunt card or dice.
Fang Linyan quickly chose his prey:
a table of rude men shouting at their throats.
They probably got together because they were excited. Several of them unbuttoned their shirts and showed their thick chest hair and sweaty chests. They were gambling enthusiastically with dice and cards.
Fang Linyan went to the table on purpose and stopped the shuttle Hostess:
"Miss beautiful, I'm very sorry to disturb you. Is Mr. dehaling here? He asked me to meet here at six in the evening, but it's already a quarter past six
Looking at Fang Linyan, the waitress said faintly:
"it's a pity that I don't know Mr. dehaling in your mouth, sir."
Fang Linyan sighed, knowing that the hostess's indifference must be due to her three Charms... No way, the characters in the plot will recognize it.
To tell you the truth, and I also want to thank the iron branch for adding a little charm. Otherwise, I'm afraid the waitress won't even talk much.
"Ah?" Fang Linyan immediately made a very depressed expression: "Oh God, my brother is waiting for me to take this Tahiti Black Pearl back in gold pounds! Mr. dehaling has promised to buy the black beauty for thirty pounds
(Note: in the early period, Britain used reserve gold to make currency, and the gold content of pound sterling was extremely high (nearly 100%). Later, the British Empire took back the early "gold pound" and added non precious metals to recast it. Therefore, the gold content of pound sterling in the later period continued to decline. In the early period, the value of one pound sterling was about one pound of gold. According to the records of Sherlock Holmes, a teacher's annual work The capital is thirty pounds. 1 pound = 20 shillings = 240 pence. If it is roughly converted to today's, then a shilling is 160 yuan and a penny is 13 yuan.)
The hostess was not interested in Lin Yan, but the figure of 100 pounds quickly attracted her attention, because it was equivalent to her income for more than ten years. Then her eyes turned to Fang Linyan's palm, and she couldn't help exaggerating and covering her mouth:
"God, it's beautiful."
It turns out that there is something similar to a black pearl in fanglinyan's palm. It is the size of a finger, round and transparent, and black, full of mystery.
This is the mysterious thing Fang Linyan found after killing Shania. It has the attribute that the holder must fall after death. It seems that he has to become a contractor formally recruited in space to be qualified. According to Fang Linyan's conjecture, it is likely to be an unknown strange thing that can exchange merit value, but it does not prevent Fang Linyan from using it as bait at this time.
Obviously, the conversation between Fang Linyan and the barmaid immediately attracted other people's attention. The drunken people around him were obviously willing to have some fun. Several people exclaimed when they saw the "Black Pearl" in Fang Linyan's hands, and even a kind old man reminded Fang Linyan:"Young man, such valuables should appear on the counters of those jewelry stores on Fifth Street. If I were you, I would put them away immediately and leave immediately."
Fang Linyan said gratefully:
"yes, sir, I think what you said is very reasonable, but Mr. dehaling made an appointment for me to meet here."
The old man sighed and was about to speak. Suddenly, a fat guy came over, with a black cloth band wrapped around his forehead, revealing his hairy chest hair, but his nose was tilted to the right. Without saying a word, he reached out and grabbed the black pearl in Fang Linyan's hand, and scolded:
"which son of a bitch is here again Selling fakes? "
This guy defined the black pearl in Fang Linyan's hand as a "fake" at one go. Obviously, it was the idea that he would not admit his debt after seizing it.
However, the crooked nosed man was already drunk, so his reaction must be reduced. In addition, Lin Yan's agility has reached 9 points, which is almost twice as fast as that of ordinary people. So how can he make it?
As soon as Fang Linyan withdrew his hand, he took back the "Black Pearl" and put it in his arms. He sighed with regret and said, "forget it, since Mr. dehaling is not here, I will go."
Then Fang Linyan said to the waitress:
"beautiful lady, if Mr. dehaling comes, please tell him that I will come back at this time tomorrow and ask him to wait for me. If the deal is concluded, I will show my little thanks with five pounds."
After that, Fang sighed with regret: "it's a pity that there's no Blackjack here. Otherwise, I can play some more for him."
When the waitress heard the five pound thank-you fee, her eyes lit up! Immediately, she felt that the young man in front of her became very handsome. She immediately said without hesitation:
"how can it be? Sir, blackjack is the mainstream game in our bar. "
Before she finished speaking, she had been pulled away by the crooked nose man. Then the guy squeezed out a smile that he thought was the most approachable and said:
"brother, we are going to play blackjack here. Come on."
Fang Linyan said with suspicious eyes:
"I don't like playing debt bureau! Cash on the spot
The man with a crooked nose said in a loud voice immediately:
"of course! I'm a famous honest Thorpe
With that, he motioned to his men nearby to raise money, and soon collected about two pounds of change.
Fang Linyan nodded, then sat down to start the card game with them, and conveniently put the bulging black wallet "Mr. Lannister Tyrion" aside, cough, though it was empty.
Although Fang Linyan didn't come up with cash, these evil guys clearly want to win all the money he has, and then seek the priceless Black Pearl. They didn't ask him to open his wallet for capital verification at all.
In the eyes of Thorpe and his minions, they are playing cards with Fang Linyan, who is a rookie at first sight. In a few minutes, they can make him leave the bar naked, crying and leaving his previous things behind.
However, Thorpe didn't know that in the era of fanglinyan's information explosion, blackjack had been analyzed to the extreme!
Edward Thorpe, a legendary gambler and gifted mathematician, started from Blackjack and swept all the casinos in Las Vegas. He even made a famous mathematical model for blackjack, which is Kelly formula.
It can quantify the number of bets each time in blackjack games. It bet more when the odds are high and less when the odds are low. Las Vegas even blacklisted him.
Fang Linyan happens to have played Blackjack on the Internet (secretly with Uncle Xu behind his back). Although he is not a mathematician, he has enough calmness and wisdom, can accurately remember every card he plays, and can use Kelly formula to do mental calculation in an instant..... Which means that he is almost invincible in playing blackjack at this time.
Time passed quickly between the winning and losing of the gambling game. About ten minutes later, Thorpe and his gang looked at each other and could hardly believe their eyes. They were washed by a rookie on the card table! The last penny in the trouser pocket was handed in.
The key is that there are still a lot of people around. They can't even cheat. After all, people are watching in full view now. If you really turn around and play tricks, you will be ridiculed and publicized everywhere. Once the gambling products are bad and the reputation is bad, then you don't want to play cards around here... You can't look up when you see acquaintances.
