Chapter 296 296: Find someone to rescue
Lu Chao was taken aback by the question, and turned to look at Cao Yuan beside him: "Do you still have any money?"
Cao Yuan shook his head with a pale face: "No...no, I lost just now."
A whole thousand taels.
Cao Yuan felt heartbroken when he thought about the money he lost for digging this hole for Lu Chao, but when he thought about what he was promised afterwards, he felt it was worth it.
After all, as long as Lu Chao is in his hands, the Lu family has to exchange money.
Lu Chao lost his eyes, looked at Cao Yuan for a while, and then stretched out his hand to take off his clothes, so frightened that Cao Yuan put his hands on his chest like a young daughter-in-law about to be molested.
"You... what are you doing?"
"The clothes are made of high-quality materials. They are worth some silver. They can be used as collateral. As long as we win, we will have everything."
As Lu Chao said, he took off Cao Yuan's clothes forcefully and slapped him on the table. Then he quickly took off his clothes.
"Come on, continue." Lu Chao yelled at the muscular man.
The people around were not surprised by Lu Chao's behavior, not to mention stripping off his coat, they have seen people who lose only a pair of pants.
Lu Chao's actions aroused everyone's interest even more, and they all booed excitedly.
The muscular man put down the silver bill in his hand, and laughed loudly: "Boy, if you are brave enough, I will grant you." Then, he threw the dice into the bamboo tube, and looked at Lu Chao in a good mood: "How about it?" , you come first or Grandpa first.”
"I'll go first!" Lu Chao gritted his teeth, then grabbed the bobbin and shook it with both hands.
An hour later, Lu Chao was stunned: "Impossible, come again!"
The man showed a fierce look: "It's okay to come, first pay back the one hundred thousand taels owed."
Lu Chao's face suddenly changed when he heard the words: "How could there be so many?"
The man shook the stack of papers in his hand impatiently: "What are you talking about, these are all signed by you, and you want to deny it?"
Lu Chao was startled by him, and swallowed his saliva: "I'll pay you back when I win." He only knew that he kept losing, and the man would write an IOU for him to sign after a while. How much, his mind was in a mess at the time, and he didn't look carefully at all.
"You're playing with me." The man patted the table angrily and said, "Hurry up and ask someone to send you money. After paying off the debt, I will accompany you any way you want, otherwise...humph!"
Lu Chao still wanted to say something, but he heard a heavy cold snort from the other party, accompanied by the shaking of the muscles in his arm, but he couldn't open his mouth no matter what.
Besides the man, several younger brothers suddenly surrounded him, staring at him covetously.
Lu Chao felt a chill creeping up from the soles of his feet. He subconsciously went to find Cao Yuan, but found that Cao Yuan had disappeared at some point.
Cao Yuan... Where is he?
Lu Chao panicked, and wanted to find Cao Yuan, but just as he took a step, he saw the muscular boys surrounded Lu Chao with a whoosh.
"Stinky boy, want to run?"
Lu Chao took a sudden step back, shaking his head in fear: "No...no, I'm just looking for my companion, let him raise money for me..."
When he said this, Lu Chao obviously lacked confidence.
The muscular man looked at Lu Chao with a sneer: "You look stupid, don't you?"
"Then what do you want?" Lu Chao was so frightened that a grown man was about to cry.
I have never encountered such a thing when I grew up. I thought I was lucky and wanted to make some money, but I didn't expect to lose so much.
One hundred thousand taels...
Even the Lu family can't afford so much money.
Lu Chao felt that he was not far from death, and his legs were so weak that he couldn't stand up.
The muscular man winked at his younger brother. The younger brother understood, turned and left, and came back not long after, holding paper and pen and ink in his hand.
"Let's write, since you didn't bring so much money, the family members can always get it out, and ask someone to redeem you with the money, the first family in Yangcun Village, otherwise I will kill you."
The rest of the people in the casino stayed away from Lu Chao one after another, fearing that they would get into this kind of trouble. Some people went to the theater, and some continued to bet on themselves indifferently.
Lu Chao was surrounded by fear. Under the fierce gaze of the muscular man, he wrote a letter with a pale face and trembling hands.
Then reported an address.
is where he and Rong Yin live now.
It's not that Rong Yin can raise so much money to save her, but let Rong Yin find a way to meet Qiao Jingru.
In a critical moment, only Qiao Jingru was the only one Lu Chao could think of to save himself.
If I let my father know that I lost a hundred thousand taels of gambling, not to mention that the Lu family can't afford so much, if there is, his father might not have him as a son.
I dare not let my grandmother know.
The old lady is getting old, so there is no good or bad when she gets excited, Lu Chao will not regret it even if she dies 10,000 times.
The muscular man handed the letter to one of the younger brothers, and then several people carried him away from here.
This village with a gambling shop hidden underground is called Yangcun. When he arrived at the first house at the head of the village, Lu Chao was locked in a room. Two people guarded the room while the rest watched from outside. .
There was a musty smell in the room, and occasionally a few mice jumped past Lu Chao's feet, which made him scream in fright, causing the guards to scold him angrily.
"Even afraid of mice, you are still not a man. If you don't see your worth, I really want to abolish you."
Lu Chao shrank in the corner, not daring to reply.
At night, in this unfamiliar suburb, no one would know if he really died.
Thinking that he might die in the wilderness, Lu Chao's spine felt chills.
Outside the house.
A younger brother asked the muscular man: "Brother, if there is no money over there, shall we just wait?"
"That can't be done. That kid's clothes look like the young master of a rich family. Three days is enough to raise one hundred thousand taels of silver to redeem him."
"Then let's wait for three days. If we don't see the money in three days, we will kill him."
"Keep an eye on him these days, don't let him run away."
"Don't worry, big brother, this is one hundred thousand taels. Brothers, you can't make trouble with silver."
Lu Chao listened to the voices outside, and his heart kept sinking.
On the third day, there was still no news of anyone coming to redeem Lu Chao. The muscular man walked into the room impatiently and kicked Lu Chao: "Boy, didn't you say someone came to redeem you? It's the third day, people Woolen cloth?"
Lu Chao wanted to play dead.
The man let out a bah, punched and kicked him to vent his anger, then picked up his collar, and said with fierce eyes: "Boy, are you looking for death in a hurry?"
Lu Chao's pupils narrowed sharply, and he shook his head quickly.
Can live, who wants to die.
He also wondered why no one came.
Did Qiao Jingru not plan to take care of him? Or did no one believe that he was in distress based on just one letter.
Thinking about it, Lu Chao's face paled slightly, and he hurriedly said: "Wait, belt, take my belt before you go, someone will definitely bring money."
Qiao Jingru made it for him with her own hands. As long as she sees the belt, Qiao Jingru will definitely come to rescue him.
