In this era, people are very superstitious about something called a treasure book or secret manual.
After all, this was the era when martial arts novels were popular. Popular male protagonists, such as Yang Guo, Guo Jing, Dongfang Bubai, and Yue Buqun, all obtained martial arts manuals by chance and then went from being unknown to becoming martial arts masters.
This is Macau, a place where money flows like water and where mainland officials inevitably fall for gambling and become corrupt whenever they visit. Could it be that it really has the legendary gambling secrets?
Just now, while Chen Rou was kicking away the dealer and shuffling the cards, all of her henchmen, except for Song Yuanchao who was straightforward and didn't listen, look, or ask questions, only concerned about her safety, thought the same thing.
They were all so eager that as soon as they got on the bus, they couldn't wait to kowtow to Chen Rou and become her disciples.
But when it comes to numbers, even Nie Jiayu, who has the highest level of education in the entire train, hesitated and dared not utter a word.
Because the more books a person reads, the more they understand one thing: being good at math is truly amazing, and ordinary people can't learn it.
But then they had another question: how could Ye Han perfectly combine mathematics and gambling, two completely unrelated things?
Wang Baodao didn't understand, and Song Yuanchao didn't understand.
Ram was even more confused; he couldn't understand anything Chen Rou was saying.
But Nie Jiayu brought his computer with him. His computer had many software programs that could work offline. Although he was not very smart, his computer was not. It had a program called Scilab, which was a professional computing software.
If you list the techniques Chen Rou mentioned as formulas, the software can calculate them automatically.
He tapped the keyboard every now and then, and on the way back to the hotel, Nie Jiayu couldn't wait to verify his conjecture on the computer.
Wang Baodao uses computers, but he's most familiar with Word; he doesn't even know how to use Excel properly.
Of course, even though he couldn't understand it, he still found it fascinating because he was carrying a huge sum of money.
Song Yuanchao had to remind him: "Baodao, think about what you're here for. Have you finished your work?"
Wang Baodao then remembered that his job involved photographing the faces of people like Chen Jinbao, A Si, and Glasses Guy that Chen Rou had come into contact with, as well as taking their fingerprints and plucking their hair with follicles.
He only managed to get the glasses guy's fingerprints and hair tonight, which he'll have to keep as samples.
Fortunately, Song Yuanchao reminded him, otherwise he would have really forgotten.
Ram has a license and can try it manually, while Nie Jiayu uses a computer, but he still has to repeatedly revise the formula.
In other words, even when there is a predetermined result or answer, it takes them a long time to verify it.
When they arrived at the hotel, everyone else had gone back to their rooms to rest. Song Yuanchao helped Chen Rou carry her bag and money, wanting to go back to her room with her.
The couple stayed in the largest presidential suite, which had a dedicated bodyguard room, where Song Yuanchao stayed.
He didn't say a word or show much expression throughout the casino, but he had his own unique perspective on what happened tonight. He swiped his magnetic stripe card to open the door and said, "Madam, that Ye Han looks quite like our young master."
His young master is A Yuan. It's a bit strange of Song Yuanchao to say that A Yuan is like a gambler.
Of course, he only dared to say it in front of his wife; if he said it in front of his boss, the boss would get angry.
Chen Rou, being open-minded, didn't feel offended at all. Instead, she smiled and asked, "Why?"
Song Yuanchao said, "You know, our young master is really good at playing with Rubik's Cubes. The nanny can give him things like the nine-linked rings, and all sorts of word puzzles and number fill-in-the-blanks, which take me a long time to figure out, but he only needs to look at them once to understand them."
He added, "Mr. Ye Han should be the same. When an ordinary person presses the calculator and hears the 'biubiu' sound, he can see the result at a glance. He didn't shuffle the playing cards to calculate the result; he just thought about it once in his mind and could calculate it."
Chen Rou is just an ordinary person; she practices and performs the same actions repeatedly with a predetermined result in mind.
But Ye Han should be the kind of person Song Yuanchao described.
Like A Yuan, he has an innate and extraordinary sensitivity to numbers.
If you gave him a Rubik's Cube, he would probably solve it just like A Yuan, while everyone else was still watching.
A mathematical genius who ventured into the gambling industry is, by mathematical standards, a top-tier tycoon.
Because the lights in the master bedroom were off, Chen Rou assumed that Nie Zhao and his son had already gone to sleep. Not wanting to disturb them, she took off her watch and jewelry, took out makeup remover pads, wiped off her foundation, and chatted with Song Yuanchao for a while.
Just as Song Yuanchao was about to count the money, the casino gave him a receipt totaling 3.12 million, in more than thirty stacks, which he had to count one by one.
As they worked, they chatted, and Song Yuanchao said, "But what I don't understand is, since Ye Han was the one who mastered the technology, how come he was eventually ousted, while Boss Wen took control of the gambling industry in Macau?"
He added, "The high-seas gambling that was so popular a while ago, the Oriental Princess was his doing, right? It was doing really well, but then he got caught by Gui Tou Chang, who robbed and kidnapped gamblers, and it all fell apart. His luck is really bad."
Actually, that's not the case. Take Chen Rou for example. Gui Tou Chang was able to find the Oriental Princess's route because someone was leaking information to him. In other words, someone instructed Gui Tou Chang to rob Ye Han's gambling ship.
Ye Han, a renowned gambling master with a reputation throughout Southeast Asia, did not fall from grace due to bad luck.
It's because those who are technically skilled can never beat those who are in management and use cunning.
Just then, Chen Rou remembered someone and asked Song Yuanchao, "Do you still remember General Manager Cai Mingli? He was also technically skilled, especially in electronics, much better than Jiayujiajun. But what was his final outcome?"
