Chapter 560 (1/2)
January 21, 8 p.m.
In the entertainment hall of Apophis palace, Joe and a group of noble youths are enjoying themselves.
Just enjoyed a love dinner cooked by old lady Mary, everyone was in a good mood and smiling.
Ferdinand makes Donne and others feel wonderful.
They are playing nine ball games.
This is a popular table tennis game among the aristocratic circles of the Deron empire. The number of nine balls is from one to nine. As long as you have the chance, you can directly hit the No. 9 ball and let the No. 9 ball into the bag, you can win a game.
If there is no chance to hit the No. 9 ball directly, then it can only be hit in the order of No. 1, No. 2 and No. 3.
If in this process, for example, you should hit the No. 3 ball, but accidentally let the No. 5, No. 7 or other ball into the bag, then you will lose the chance to hit and give the right to the opponent.
Of course, in the course of the game, can not use any extraordinary power!
Ferdinand, who was drunk at dinner, joined the match enthusiastically. Moreover, he lost more than 100 gold marks to Donne and other young men in just half an hour.
Donne and his buddies have limited pocket money, and they spend a lot of money. Now it's near the end of the month, and they're in a tight spot.
Ferdinand lost more than 100 gold marks, which were evenly distributed among each head, and there were as many as 112 gold marks.
This is almost equal to their pocket money for a month!
So, Donne, they grinned and almost didn't jump. They kept talking about Ferdinand's ”brilliant” skills, and at the same time, a little bit, a gold mark, a gold mark, increased the upper limit of the bet.
Ferdinand was obviously drunk. His eyes were a little red. Half an hour later, he lost more than 300 gold marks.
Donne, they laughed even more brightly.
Ferdinand took out the traveler's check Hessen gave him and waved it bravely: ”ha, little guys, your uncle Ferdinand has money As long as you have the ability, you can win a lot of money from me A thousand gold marks? Ten thousand gold marks? Oh, oh, no problem! ”
Joe stood at the ball table laughing, sipping mellow, sweet white beer.
He didn't join the game because he had never played it since he was a kid. He didn't.
Let him go to play, or he will pierce the ivory billiard with one stroke, or he will turn the billiard into a shell and blow it out, making a hole in the wall!
Therefore, for the luxury decoration of Yuele hall, he should not be involved.
In particular - Joe's instinct was that Ferdinand seemed to be holding on to something bad This old man, when has he been so generous?
These days, the little tail is about to pick the teeth in the sky, wearing a luxurious aristocratic dress, with the teeth of a sword inlaid with gold and jade around the waist, and darting in with standard small dance steps.
He came up to Joe's ear and murmured a few words.
Joe's eyes widened. He said hello to Donne and followed him out of the entertainment hall.
Ferdinand's ears trembled slightly. When he heard Joe's footsteps gradually go away, he grabbed the bottle and took a big sip of wine: ”ah, I lost again. I have a little ruby with a market value of 1200 gold marks. How about I make a bet of 1000 gold marks with it?”
”Well, boys, you've won a lot. Why don't we play bigger? In the previous round, there were only a few tens of gold marks. Now, the minimum bet for each person is 100 gold marks. How about that? ”
Ferdinand from his pocket, took out a corn size, color can be called perfect pigeon blood ruby.
Donne, they had a lot of wine, too.
At dinner, Ferdinand raised his glass to them and they drank a lot.
In addition, in the entertainment hall, everyone was in a good mood and had a good time, so they poured a lot of wine In particular, Joe, there are many kinds of wine, many of them drink a lot of mixed wine!
So, we all have a little bit of alcohol.
Therefore, Ferdinand's proposal was unanimously approved by all the young men. They applauded one after another and then raised one after another.
Joe followed ya all the way to the Crystal Hall of Apophis palace.
Under the light, the crystal hall is shining and gorgeous. Wearing a long skirt, there is a necklace hanging around her neck. The pendant of the necklace is a blood colored gem the size of a goose egg. Under the light, the gem shines brightly. Veronica is nervously walking around the Crystal Hall.
As soon as Joe entered the door, he saw the bloody jewel hanging around Verona's neck.
In fact, the appearance of this gem is too perfect, and the volume is so huge.
Joe remembers that her mother, Liya, has a unique hobby for sapphire, so Liya has a lot of precious sapphires in her collection.In medland, the prices of sapphire and ruby are at the same level.
