Chapter 276 Win Some Money to Spend (3 more updates)
Ye Ling nodded his head when he heard the man's words, the so-called nouveau riche must be Jiang Bin, there could be no mistake.
"That guy only arrived a few days ago and has been gambling big every day. The main reason is that he's rumored to have official backing, so he's very brazen and has offended many people, yet no one can do anything to him."
"And ever since this guy arrived, I've noticed that the Queen's Casino has become quite unsettled. It seems a lot of people are looking for him, many of whom are from our own country, but most are dead."
The man's expression became somewhat exaggerated when he spoke of death, as if he had witnessed it with his own eyes.
Ye Ling nodded. "Thanks for the info. You go ahead with your work, I'll go in and play for a bit, and by the way, check out this so-called tycoon."
Having finished speaking, Ye Ling left, leaving behind the man with a contemplative gaze, hoping this young fellow wouldn't end up dead. That detestable Jiang Bin was not someone to mess with.
Inside the Queen's Casino, Ye Ling surveyed the surroundings which were crowded with people, giving off an intoxicatingly luxurious atmosphere. Gamblers howled like madmen, banging on tables.
Numerous burly men in black continuously patrolled inside the casino, ensuring absolute security.
Bunny girls with attractive figures carried glittering trays laden with cigarettes for patrons to sample for free, and certain areas offered fruits and snacks.
"Tsk tsk, I've got to say, the capitalist world is indeed bustling with excitement, truly enchanting," Ye Ling laughed heartily.
Coming to the chip exchange counter, Ye Ling exchanged for a hundred thousand in chips—a million in Huaxia Currency converted to just ten red chips.
Holding the chips, Ye Ling began to wander in front of various gambling devices, thinking to himself that this place was truly a gold-digger's cave, as the crowd was dense before each betting area.
This place must swallow up countless people's fortunes every day, who knows how many people end up penniless overnight, and equally, how many strike it rich.
"Tsk tsk, let this young master demonstrate his mighty luck and scrape together a little treasury, otherwise the pocket money those stingy women at home give me is just not enough," Ye Ling sighed.
Approaching a betting machine, Ye Ling read the simple yet common rules.
He placed bets of various amounts, each with different odds, but his eyes lit up at the sight of a huge Golden Dragon, shining with a five hundred times payout. He smirked and placed ten thousand straight on it.
"Yo! Young man from Huaxia, are you out of your mind for money? I've been around here for over a decade and never seen anyone hit the Golden Dragon, it's an absolute loss maker!"
Next to Ye Ling, a bearded old man lamented, convinced that Ye Ling was crazy—it was impossible to win.
Ye Ling chuckled, "Old gentleman, maybe I'll be lucky. Besides, if the machine displays these odds, it must hit sometime, just that the chances are slim. What if I hit it?"
The bearded old man shook his head; it was not that easy. It was just a gimmick offered by betting companies, with pathetically low odds.
After Ye Ling bet on the Golden Dragon, the machine started spinning, its lights whirling frantically before beginning to slow down, gradually preparing to stop.
The bearded old man's complexion suddenly changed, eyes filled with disbelief: "Impossible! How could it hit! It won't!"
As the light ring inched towards the Golden Dragon symbol, the bearded man muttered, "This can't be happening. Nobody has ever won the big prize. How could this young man from Huaxia win?"
Ye Ling's expression remained serene as he lightly flicked his finger, a wisp of white Spiritual Power shooting straight into the machine.
Boom!
The slot machine was awash with bright light, and the ring of light settled directly on Golden Dragon. Instantly, inspiring music filled the entire casino hall, drawing the gaze of everyone present.
"Wester! Damn it, what's happening over there?" A few burly foreigners bellowed from not too far away.
The bearded elder standing beside Ye Ling was dumbfounded. "This is simply a miracle, a miracle! This Huaxia man has created a miracle, my God!"
A bet of ten thousand directly hit a jackpot of five million; this was freaking rarer than winning the lottery.@@novelbin@@
The staff also came over, eyes full of shock. After confirming Ye Ling had won the Golden Dragon, they took out five glittering golden chips from the prize counter, each worth one million, and handed them to Ye Ling.
"Tsk tsk, thanks a lot." Ye Ling picked up the five million in chips, laughed heartily, and then turned to walk towards other gambling tables.
The bearded elder had gone into a daze. A colossal prize of five million had occurred right under his eyes.
He was full of regret. Why hadn't he taken out just a few chips to join this young man in the bet? If he had, he might have had a chance to make a fortune as well.
On the second floor of the casino, a blonde-haired, blue-eyed woman watched Ye Ling's figure moving around the gambling tables, her expression slightly cold.
"Go, let Chiba teach him a lesson," the woman said, and the man in black behind her nodded respectfully, then turned and left.
Ye Ling weaved through the gambling tables, his bets steady, drawing the attention of the casino—exactly what he wanted.
Since he had not spotted any Huaxia people inside the casino, Ye Ling knew that Jiang Bin was in the so-called VIP area, a separate zone. With ordinary means, he would not be able to get in.
As Ye Ling approached the dice table, he had just sat down, ready to place his bet, when a woman dressed in a kimono slowly approached the table, replacing the croupier who had been throwing the dice.
"From now on, I'll be serving you." The woman in the kimono, Chiba, had come to teach Ye Ling a lesson.
Ye Ling was startled, then burst into laughter. It was clear that this woman had come for him, but since she was here, it did not matter; nothing was stopping him from making money, and it even drew their attention, which suited him just fine.
"Please place your bets!" As she said this, Chiba covered the dice with the shaker, giving it a few random shakes before stopping.
Ye Ling immediately beamed, impressed by her skill. It looked like random shaking, but it was full of hidden strength, with countless variations inside the shaker.
"I'm betting big! Heh, I saw how she secured the dice just now. This random shaking can't change the numbers," one gambler declared.
"Heh, that's where you're naive. She's deliberately being mystifying. That's how these people from Dongying are. I'm betting small!" another retorted.
All the bystanders began to place their bets, but Ye Ling, holding a ten thousand Huaxia Currency chip, thought for a moment, then flicked it with one finger, and the red chip softly landed on the spot for triple ones.
"Whoa! We've got a bold one here. Has he gone mad? The first roll is never a triple!"
"Yeah! I think this guy must have a thing for the dice roller lady; otherwise, why would he make such a blind bet?"
"Tsk, you know, the women from her country are really good at martial arts."
Stay tuned with empire
Suddenly, everyone around the gambling table burst into laughter.
Meanwhile, Chiba's eyes narrowed slightly, her hand already on the shaker, ready to unveil the result.
What do you think?
