The news that the Dayan Empire was preparing to form ten new inner guards and imperial guards soon spread throughout the capital. Li Bin was not concerned about this. Anyway, he was not going to join the army, so he focused on his gambling hall.

There are so many rich people in Beijing, and there are many people who are willing to go to the gambling hall to play a few times. In just a few days, Li Bin earned more than half of the money he bought a shop.

Li Bin roughly calculated that this gambling hall alone could earn him at least 100,000 taels of silver a year. If the business was good, maybe even 150,000 taels of silver could not be stopped. It was like robbing money, and it could only be described as huge profits.

This made Li Bin wonder if he would open a few more gambling halls in Beijing. Of course, it was not that easy for Li Bin to open other gambling halls.

According to Li Bin's investigation, there are currently 24 large-scale gambling halls in the entire capital, including the outer city and the inner city, which is not counted as Li Bin's newly opened Xinglong gambling hall.

The background of these 24 gambling halls is not simple. Li Bin was able to open Xinglong gambling hall smoothly, thanks to the five princes and the nine generals in the capital who have been trying to win over Li Bin. Otherwise, Li Bin, who had no background, would have almost zero chance of opening such a large-scale gambling hall in the capital. The forces behind those gambling halls have too many open and secret ways to deal with Li Bin.

If Li Bin is more and more eager to open a second gambling hall or a third gambling hall, maybe the trouble will be found on Li Bin soon, so Li Bin's idea of ​​opening a new gambling hall only flashed a few times in his mind, and he gave up directly.

Since you have made enough money, there is no need to get into a series of troubles in order to make more money. Li Bin is actually a person who is quite afraid of trouble.

However, the more you are afraid of trouble, the more trouble you will come to you.

After the court determined to form ten new Imperial Guards, the Crown Prince, King Jin, King Qin, King Song and King Yue all personally invited Li Bin to join their command, and were willing to give Li Bin a fifth-rank Yingyang Central Army General, that is, the official position of the battalion leader.

In order to win over Li Bin, Crown Prince Zhao Chang and King Zhao Jian of Qin also promised Li Bin that officers below the battalion could be appointed by Li Bin themselves, which was equivalent to handing over the imperial guards of a battalion to Li Bin. This was the best condition that Crown Prince Zhao Chang and King Zhao Jian of Qin could have. After all, all the positions of deputy commanders, brigade and deputy brigade leaders of the ten new imperial guards were divided up by the Thirteen Generals.

The Thirteen Generals only left the right to appoint ten battalions, and these ten battalions were among the two new inner guards. You should know that the two new inner guards combined have a total of fifty battalions.

Li Bin did not agree to any prince's recruitment. One is that Li Bin really doesn't want to join the army, the other is that Li Bin doesn't want to find a master for himself, and the last is that if Li Bin promises one of the princes now, it is equivalent to offending the other four princes. Li Bin doesn't want to be involved in the whirlpool of the five princes.

In addition to the five princes, the nine generals in the capital also sent people to recruit Li Bin. There were several generals who opened the conditions, which were even much more generous than the five princes.

For example, the Ma family was willing to give Li Bin a fourth-rank Xuanwei General, the deputy brigade leader among the newly formed Inner Guards. In addition, all the officials in a battalion under Li Bin could be appointed by Li Bin, and the Ma family was responsible for reporting to the court.

Faced with such generous conditions, Li Bin was still not moved and refused. The generous conditions given by other generals did not impress Li Bin either.

Li Bin's refusal did not make the five princes and the nine generals retreat. Almost every day, people came to find Li Bin, which made Li Bin very annoyed, but it was not easy to offend these people, so they could only deal with it with a smile.

What made Li Bin speechless was that the prince and the King of Qin had a big argument in the Xinglong Gambling Hall in order to recruit him, and finally the matter was caused by the Emperor Zhao Zhe.

In a palace in the palace, the emperor Zhao Zhe looked at the prince Zhao Chang and the Qin King Zhao Jian, and snorted coldly and said, "You two really give me a face! One prince and the other prince almost fought to recruit a martial artist!"

The faces of the Crown Prince Zhao Chang and the Qin King Zhao Jian were a little embarrassed. At this time, the Song King Zhao Zhi next to him said, "Brother, that Li Bin is really a rare general, with a strong strength far exceeding that of ordinary master warriors. Moreover, there are at least ten master-level generals under Li Bin, so not only the prince and the prince, but also the King of Jin and King Yue, I hope to bring Li Bin under our command and add a group of tiger generals to our royal family!"

When the emperor Zhao Zhe heard this, he frowned, "I sounded familiar with the name Li Bin."

King Zhao Jian of Qin immediately said: "Your father, the group of people who killed more than 2,000 Southern Qiang cavalry in Mopan County were Li Bin and several of his family soldiers. Qin Qiong, who killed a Southern Qiang general and a Urong general under Jingyuan City, and Yuchi Gong, who killed a Urong general, are all under Li Bin."

Prince Zhao Chang followed and said, "Father, at this year's launch ceremony, Li Bin recruited three disciples from Tianxing Pavilion at once, just as he helped the Ma family to help the boxing, and the three disciples from Tianxing Pavilion all have the strength of a master warrior."

Emperor Zhao Zhe suddenly realized, "Oh, it's that Li Bin. Why do I feel so familiar with him? There are so many masters and warriors under him?"

The princes in the palace, Zhao Chang, Zhao Yu, Zhao Jian, Zhao Zhi, Zhao Jing, Zhao in the palace, nodded almost at the same time.

King Zhao Jing of Yue immediately said, "Father, recruiting Li Bin alone is equivalent to recruiting more than ten masters and warriors. So in the past few days, not only the five brothers have been trying to recruit Li Bin, but the nine generals have also taken action, and the conditions offered are even more generous."

Emperor Zhao Zhe pondered for a moment and asked, "Didn't that Li Bin accept the recruitment of those generals?"

Crown Prince Zhao Chang shook his head and said, "As far as my son knows, Li Bin has not agreed to anyone's solicitation so far, and it is likely that he is waiting for a price."

If Li Bin heard the words of Prince Zhao Chang, he would definitely shout for injustice. He was really not selling for the sake of the price, he was really lazy and unwilling to do any troubles of making achievements.

Emperor Zhao Zhe thought about it for a while and spoke to his five sons: "I know this, you guys go down first!"

King Zhao Jian of Qin said anxiously: "Father, then Li Bin..."

Emperor Zhao Zhe waved his hand and interrupted the Qin King Zhao Jian's brief words, "I will arrange the matter of Li Bin freely!"
