Chapter 194 Entering the Factory



Their movements were ambiguous, and their eyes were lingering.

When he was singing his heart out, Wu Hainan even took off his white shirt, showing off his well-built muscles.

He captivated a group of middle-aged female fans in their forties and fifties in the audience, who kept stuffing handfuls of crystal cores into his hands.

"His expression clearly shows he was acting voluntarily; there's not a trace of him being forced into it..."

Before Sun Tiantian could finish speaking, Wu Hainan gave the rich old lady a kiss on the cheek.

Their highly skilled assembly line movements were so practiced it was almost heartbreaking.

Lu Sheng and the others: "..."

An undercover agent's identity can be obscure, but it cannot be sinister, and certainly cannot be used as an excuse to unleash their true nature!

"The Yunshan base shouldn't be short-staffed to this extent, right? Why would they need the second-in-command's son to suffer like this?" Sun Tiantian frowned as she watched, unable to resist turning to Lu Sheng to complain.

“Many people choose to run away when faced with responsibilities they don’t want to take on. He came here to find some peace and quiet, so he wouldn’t have to deal with the mess at the Yunshan base.” Lu Sheng took a sip of his chilled juice.

With Jiang Qichen dead, the responsibility for the future of the Yunshan base naturally falls on Wu Hainan's shoulders, according to the order of succession.

But this person happens to be a cynical playboy, so it's understandable that he didn't want to take on this responsibility.

That's why he used the pretext of an investigation to hide in the Oasis Group and let loose.

While the group was talking, Wu Hainan, having already made arrangements for all the charming and wealthy women, came over to find them.

"Let's go, the nightlife here is just getting started."

Wu Hainan wiped the sweat from his forehead and winked at the wealthy women who lingered not far away.

Lu Sheng and his friends left the bar with him and were immediately stunned by the bustling scene before them.

They entered the bar around 9 p.m., and the streets were already bustling with people. Now it's exactly midnight, and all the shops in the central square are packed with people.

Everywhere you look, there's an atmosphere of extravagance and decadence, and the level of prosperity is comparable to Sanlitun before the apocalypse.

"What's that building at the street corner for? Why are so many people rushing over there?" Zhang Xiaojuan looked curiously at the street.

"The casino is officially run by the Oasis Group. Almost everyone who comes to the Oasis Group gets tricked into going in."

Wu Hainan smiled and made a gesture, "Let me show you around, maybe we'll run into some acquaintances."

A few people, eager to see the world, followed him into the casino, and sure enough, they spotted a familiar figure in the crowded throng.

"Hey? Isn't that Dongyang at that gambling table over there?"

As the group looked around, Han Rui suddenly tugged at Lu Sheng's sleeve.

Dongyang changed out of her military uniform and into a tight-fitting short skirt that accentuated her curves. On the table was a small mountain of chips.

"Is this your first time here?" Wu Hainan said with certainty after just one glance, following the gazes of the group.

"How did you know she just arrived?" Han Rui asked curiously.

There are at least 800 to 1,000 people in the casino. How could Wu Hainan tell that Dong Yang had just joined the Oasis Group with just one glance?

Wu Hainan smiled mysteriously, "Even the way he holds the chips is so amateurish, what's there to not notice?"

He paused, his expression turning serious, and said, "Nine out of ten gamblers lose. The old gamblers are all working as laborers in Oasis's shady factories. Those who can win money at the card table are all newbies who have just entered Oasis."

Several people gazed at the winter sun from afar.

She seemed to be having good luck at cards, winning quite a bit at the table, and looked radiant.

According to the exchange rules here, the chips on Dongyang's table are worth at least 500 intermediate crystal cores.

"Is this considered a newbie perk period?"

Seeing Dongyang placing his bet with great enthusiasm, Xiao Yu asked, puzzled.

"Don't you understand? Don't be fooled by the large number of people here. At least 40 out of 100 are shills for the Oasis Group. They're just trying to give newcomers a taste of success so you can experience the thrill of winning money."

Wu Hainan encountered several familiar faces in the casino and exchanged greetings with them.

"Half of them are shills?"

Lu Sheng and the others looked surprised.

"Perhaps I haven't said enough."

"But with so many new people joining the Oasis Group every day, if everyone won hundreds of crystal cores, the Oasis Group would have gone bankrupt long ago..." Han Rui looked at the excited crowd in front of the gambling table, puzzled.

Every day, at least several hundred people enter the Oasis Group. How much wealth can it withstand such losses?

Wu Hainan led a few people around the casino a few times.

In a casino, for every person who laughs, there is someone who cries. Besides the newcomers who win big at the gambling tables, there are also many unlucky guys in the corners who are beaten black and blue because they can't pay their gambling debts.

Many people are unable to repay their gambling debts and are forced to borrow large sums of money from Jinghe Loans to pay them off.

"The bookmakers aren't afraid of you winning; they're afraid of you not gambling. Once you get addicted to gambling, you'll lose back everything you've already bet."

Sun Tiantian's delicate eyebrows furrowed. "But... if you just play as long as you win money, wouldn't that be like getting hundreds of crystal cores from Oasis Group for free? That's no small amount."

"You work hard for a month to earn only two hundred crystal cores, but at the gambling table, you can easily get hundreds of crystal cores with just a flick of your finger. After experiencing the thrill of such a windfall, would you still want to go back to your honest job?"

Lu Sheng stared at the distance, where Dong Yang was gambling with great enthusiasm, his expression already somewhat smug.

"It can't be that bad, right? A normal person would know when to quit while they're ahead..." Han Rui pouted sheepishly.

Zhang Xiaojuan rolled her eyes and retorted mercilessly, "You say you want to lose weight every day, but you won't even let me skip a single meal."

"If you don't even have this much self-discipline, where do you get the confidence to quit while you're ahead?"
