With a gloomy face, Qi Sanye, the head of the Qi family mansion in Deshengmen, sat upright on the chair of the Grand Master in the study, and kept turning two ancient jade walnuts in his right hand, but his left finger gently tapped the desk of Hualimu, vaguely playing a music score of ambushing on ten sides.

Since the Qing Dynasty, the Qi family of Deshengmen was a member of the Han military flag. Although Xiao Er's inheritance was not considered a famous family, in Sijiu City, in terms of rules and sufficient scenes, the Qi family of Deshengmen was really the number one. The dilapidated children of the Eight Banners looked at the wealthy life of the Deshengmen Qi family, and couldn't help but say behind their backs that the slave took the position of his master, and he had a golden crown, which was like a six-eared monkey. No matter how he looked, he was not the Monkey King!

Although he was at home and his brothers were alive, he had been in the past few years of leading the Qi family to win more than he lost at the Qiuzhu meeting, and his efforts in the gambling game openly and secretly, but few people were willing to listen to the words of the Qi family at home. Instead, Qi Sanye had already sat firmly on the chair of the head of the Qi family in Deshengmen.

But three years ago, Mr. Qi made the decision to introduce Nan Scorpion to the autumn insect meeting. He spread a lot of money like flowing water, but failed to win the insect king at the autumn insect meeting as he wished, and even lost miserably in the gambling game. This made several other men from the Deshengmen Qi family sarcastically say a lot of gossip.

Finally, I spent a lot of money this year to get back thirty-six southern scorpions from Yunnan, but I got news that was almost desperate - Master Na Jiu from Jingshui Hutong might have really served a Seven Killing Scorpion!

According to the words passed down from the autumn insect meeting in previous years, the Seven Killing Scorpions are almost an invincible myth. Someone once made a heavy bet and fought with one Seven Killing Scorpion, but in the end it was still a crushing defeat.

If the truth is really like the rumor...

As he quickly turned around the ancient jade walnut in his hand, Master Qi San said to the butler who was standing in front of him with a gloomy face: "Have you found out clearly?"

Staring at his toes, the housekeeper who had been working in the Qi family in Deshengmen for 30 years responded respectfully: "When it comes to Master San, for seven consecutive days, Jingshui Hutong takesout for a while, the man from Zhushikou, the man from Xiong, even the person who was carrying a carry-on to sell vegetables had to search before he could leave! Our family had also arranged people to go over to see it. We originally thought that it would be possible to get things done with a few dollars, but those green-skinned gangsters seemed to have eaten a calming pill, and they didn't want the white ocean, so they didn't let the people in our family go over!"

With a dull hum, the ancient jade walnut in Master Qi's hand suddenly stopped turning: "The gangster leader named Xiong from Zhushikou is really brave! No matter who the person who has accumulated the game in Sijiu City is, he will just lift his hand and send him off! Just a gangster leader, he really thinks he is a character?!"

The housekeeper who nodded respectfully and never left his toes said, following the words of Master Qi San, "From the day when the distant nephew, the news came from the young master, it was a total of seven days. Najiu and the young man outside the pass never went out! However, Najiu's daughter went out of the city to catch wild scorpions every day, and there were also Mr. Xiong's people following him. It didn't look like he was following her, but it seemed like he was protecting her!"

After hesitating for a moment, the butler slightly looked up at the heavy Master Qi San, who looked like water: "Just this afternoon, Najiu and the young man from the gate went out to the Huaqing Pool bathhouse. They looked so tired that they just crawled out of the Huntang Pool and fell asleep on the bath stool! But... the young man from the gate said a dream..."

He suddenly raised his body from the Grand Master's chair, and a ray of cold light shot out from his three-angled eyes: "What did the young man from outside the Pass say?"

With a bit of guilt on his face, the housekeeper focused his eyes on the toes of his shoes again: "Just a word that didn't listen to was a complete sentence - what... finally it was done?"

After a long silence, Master Qi San waved back the butler who had always been standing at his desk bent over. Then he turned around and smiled at a huge screen carved from red sandalwood in the study, "Stop waiting for me, please come out!"

Accompanied by the greeting of Master Qi San, three middle-aged men wearing long silk gowns came out from behind the red sandalwood screen. Although they had different figures and different appearances, the temperaments of these three middle-aged men were extremely similar. Even the walking looks like they were made from the same mold - they bowed their heads, put their feet on the ground, and their arms drooped against their bodies, which seemed to be a skilled family member in a wealthy family.

Sitting upright on the Grand Master's chair, Master Qi San raised his hand slightly to the three middle-aged men who walked out from behind the red sandalwood screen, and said with a smile: "The Qi family in Deshengmen is shallow in their own way and narrow in paths. All they can find out are trivial matters, which are not as capable as the few people in the mansion! What charter should Qiu Chong take this year? He also has to ask the masters of the mansion to speak! As for the game he has accumulated... The Qi family in Deshengmen will be a freshman this year and will be the dealer in this game. How about it?"

With a little bit of pleasing, the oldest among the three middle-aged men smiled and said, "The Third Master said this too modestly! Since the time when Emperor Xuantong of the Qing Dynasty ascended the throne, the Autumn Insect Association of Sijiu City has always been the decision of the Deshengmen Qi family. Now the Third Master is in charge of the head of the Deshengmen Qi family. What regulations should be taken at the Autumn Insect Association? Naturally, the Third Master has to listen to the Third Master's words!"

As if he was just making fun, another middle-aged man wearing a light brown southern silk gown also said respectfully: "The rules of the game have been decided by the third master over the years. This year, the dealer of the game is done by the third master, so it is of course the best! Before coming, the master at home has ordered that everything will be decided by the third master. We only come with one ear, and we dare not open our mouths randomly!"

Seeing the remaining middle-aged man nodding in agreement, a smug smile appeared on Master Qi San's face: "Since several men in charge of the family are so proud, then this year's autumn insect meeting is still the same rule - one person brings at most two insects to the battle, and draws lots to fight! Tomorrow, the insect test will be issued according to the head of the autumn insect meeting, and the sign will be issued, and the sign will be recognized but not the person will be recognized! As for the game I saved... it is also the same rule. Those who are placing cash in person, and those who are outside the venue will be placing tickets. When the Mid-Autumn Festival in August is the first day of August, the placing of the insect king will be finally settled by placing the tickets!"

Amid the three middle-aged men's promises, Master Qi San slowly turned around the two ancient jade walnuts in his hand, his face still smiled, but his words were a little sharp: "A few of you just heard it, Na Jiu from Jingshui Hutong might have really served the Seven Killing Scorpion! According to the old people's saying, this Seven Killing Scorpion has never encountered an opponent at the Qiuzhu Club..."

When we heard the string song, we knew the elegance. Three middle-aged men rushed to Mr. Qi San, who was smiling all over and said, "Don't worry, Master San, our mansion understands the situation in the Sijiu City!"

"I'm just a ninth person. In recent years, he's not embarrassed at the autumn insect meeting? This year, maybe I'm anxious to make a comeback, so I'm taking a look at something evil to give myself courage to play with!"

"What Seven Killing Scorpions? I guess it's just a story of coaxing people? Besides, even if there is really that precious thing, he can serve him with Na Jiu's skills and the foundation of the family?"

Nodding with satisfaction, Mr. Qi San raised his hand to the three middle-aged men again: "It's not too early, so I'll leave you a few more! I'll be bothering you! I'll take good care of you for the men in charge of their respective mansions. There are a few pairs of shoes I have prepared for you in the gatehouse. Don't forget when you leave!"

Watching the three middle-aged men say Xie and leave the study room, Master Qi San's smile retracted, raised his hand and took a wolf-haired pen on the desk, wrote a few lines of words on a Yangzhou Suhua letter paper, and shouted outside the study room: "Come here! Send me quickly, hand this piece to Master Duan, the head of the Zhushikou patrol officer!"

Seeing the butler who walked into the study and took the letter he had just written, Qi Sanye raised his hand to stop the butler's movements, and took the Yangzhou Suhua letter from the butler who looked surprised, and slowly tore it into pieces.

He gently and slowly spilled fragments of letter paper onto the desk. The expression on Master Qi San's face was gloomy and clear. Even his eyes that were extremely deserted on weekdays kept flashing with a hint of hesitation.

After a long time of silence, the fragments of letter paper in his hand fell onto the wide desk. Mr. Qi San just looked up at the butler standing in front of the desk and said, "Prepare a few people to check the insects tomorrow, and all the people who received the signatures will be on the look! Especially... Na Jiu, you won't miss it for a while!"

A rosewood box locked with a small copper lock was taken out from the desk drawer. Master Qi San reached out and rubbed the rosewood box for a while. Then he took out a small key from his waist and opened the copper lock. He took out several papers with exquisite patterns from the rosewood box.

Just glanced at the paper and the housekeeper who was standing at the desk was startled and shouted at Master Qi in surprise: "Master San, you are planning..."

He gently bounced the pieces of paper with his fingers. The smile on Master Qi's face was as gloomy as the black clouds before the thunderstorm: "For two years, the Nansie found by the Qi family of Deshengmen did not get the insect king at the Autumn Bug Club. If this year... do you think I can still sit firmly on this chair under my butt?!"

Turning his head and looking at the door of the study, the butler whispered in a panic to Mr. Qi San who was putting five or six pieces of paper on the desk, "Then you can't touch your old capital, right?! These certificates of deposit from Citibank have been taken out of the bureau you have saved in the years! What if......"

With a sneer, Master Qi San put on the empty red sandalwood box: "When you just followed me, how much money can I have on hand? When the five families in the Qi family in Deshengmen were in the Deshengmen, who had the eyelids to hold me? Just say that those families just now, don't look at the ones who slapped their chests in front of me, but if no one behind the scenes in the game that Qiu Chong would accumulate, and quietly bet on the seven-kill scorpion served by Na Jiu, that would be evil! Hum... In this life, people need to be bold! You can find a suitable person to hold this money first, and wait for Qiu Chong to catch the bet on the next day, and then smash it out before the person who collected the bets to collect the bets! You can smash it out!"

With trembling fingers, the butler trembled and grabbed the light Citibank certificates of deposit, and said to Master Qi San, "Who is the one who hits him? Besides, Master San, you are the banker this year. If your foundation for the banker collapses, then the Deshengmen Qi family will......"

He curled his lips disdainfully, Master Qi San raised his hand and swept the pieces of paper on the desk into a pen that had not had time to add water, and threw a match in it: "Hold the insect king at this year's autumn insect meeting. I don't fall down, then the Deshengmen Qi family is here! If the Nansie can't take the insect king at this year's autumn insect meeting, I will fall down too... Then what else do you want the Deshengmen Qi family! Besides... That master, how can I offend that master?!"
