After hearing this, Chen Jintian remained gentle and said, "Young man, don't be so angry. Come on, the five of us can just sit at the same table. I wish you all good luck in playing cards."
Listening to Chen Jintian's words, Wang Gambler snorted coldly. Others didn't understand him, Chen Jintian, so how could he not understand him? On the surface, he looked like a kind man, but in fact, he was more vicious than anyone else.
But Wang Gambling Monster is no pushover either. In a place that never sleeps, you can't just be ruthless to survive. You also need connections and money.
Seeing this, the dealer immediately asked, "Dear guests, would you like to start this game?"
The King of Pairs raised his hand first, Blackfoot Seven raised his hand second, and the Gambling Monster raised his hand third. Only Chen Jintian was calm and looked not anxious at all, because his eyes were always fixed on Wu Jie's every move.
Wu Jie smiled faintly. He hadn't said anything yet, but the people here were even more eager to show off than he was. It seemed everything was going according to his plan. His eyes flicked over to a certain box, and when Country X's gambling king emerged, he knew the bait had been taken.
Wu Jie also slowly raised his hand. Seeing this, Chen Jintian also raised his hand, because his original intention was to target Wu Jie. If Wu Jie did not raise his hand, there would be no point in him raising his hand.
The dealer nodded and began to shuffle the cards. Every dealer here was professionally trained, and to ensure fairness, every table, every card, and even every gambler could be inspected at any time.
Who doesn't know there's something fishy going on in a casino? But why do so many people still flock to it, even though some people know about it? Casinos operate far more than just table fees; that's all out in the open.
Hidden within casinos are professional gamblers who call, follow bets, and lure players into gambling. Once you place a bet, you're being ripped off. They'll initially offer you a small profit, then slowly devour every penny you have. They'll then loan you the winnings to continue gambling, until you're completely bankrupt and forced to work for the casino.
Of course, casinos can't always rely on this kind of business to survive, because there are many important people who come to the casino to play, such as high-ranking officials, gang bosses, or business owners. In today's technologically advanced world, these important people will carry various high-tech devices for counter-reconnaissance.
It would be fine if you were not caught cheating, but if you were discovered, it would not be a simple matter of paying money and being done with it. It might even turn into a gang fight and end in a bloodbath.
Casinos naturally developed their own set of unwritten rules: cheating is allowed, but it cannot be discovered. If discovered, it must be resolved privately, and no trouble is allowed in the casino. Casino owners only make a profit from the table fee and do not want to meddle in other people's grievances, so few people cause trouble in casinos nowadays.
Today is a bit lively. There is a gambling king from country X, a gambling monster named Wang, and a black-footed seven. They are all well-known figures, except for this boss Hao who is the most mysterious.
In this gambling game, the gambling king of Country X was the gambler with the highest status and position besides Boss Hao. All the gamblers present knew him.
With his participation in the gambling game, coupled with the mysterious Boss Hao, the game immediately became more sophisticated. Everyone couldn't help but focus their attention on the card table, wanting to see how this gambling game would end.
"Please check the cards!" From left to right, the dealer first handed the cards to Black Foot Seven on the far left. After Black Foot Seven looked at them, he handed them to Chen Jintian, and Chen Jintian then handed them to Wu Jie.
Wu Jie was naturally also observing the two of them secretly. When Blackfoot Seven checked the cards, he took a button-shaped object and scanned the cards, looking very professional.
But Chen Jintian was different. He just flipped through it casually without using any high technology, and then handed it to Wu Jie.
Wu Jie only glanced at the deck and sneered inwardly, thinking there was something fishy going on. He didn't know whether Chen Jintian and Blackfoot Seven had truly seen through it or not. In any case, they didn't say anything, and he didn't bother to say it either.
With his current strength, seeing through a deck of cards is no problem at all. Even if they want to cheat, they have no chance.
But Wu Jie's idea is that in order to catch a big fish with a long line, he has to give them some sweet taste first so that they can't help themselves.
As Wu Jie passed the cards down, the two people in front looked at each other and laughed in their hearts. It seemed that Boss Hao was really here to play, and he didn't seem to be very good at checking the cards.
There are clearly two dancers next to him who can be scanned using data vision, but neither of them moves. Isn't this equivalent to giving them the opportunity to make money?
Only Qingqiu Yu frowned as she watched Wu Jie's actions. Although she was not involved in gangs, she knew what a casino was through what she had seen and heard: a place where people spend money, cheat, and commit crimes. All the negative terms that could be thought of could be used here.
What's wrong with the commander? It would be fine to let Shengyue and Alice check the cards, why just let it go like that? Although she knew the commander was going to play a big game, that wasn't how chess was played, was it? How was this any different from giving money away?
Although she didn't understand a thousand things in her heart, she remained silent patiently. Because she had worked with Wu Jie for a long time, she knew very well that Wu Jie was not the kind of person who would act without purpose. Maybe the boss really had some good ideas.
After checking the cards, the dealer started cutting the cards...
Swish, swish, swish...
Starting with two cards, the open card of Black Foot Seven is the 9 of Hearts, the open card of Chen Jintian is the Q of Clubs, and the open card of Wang Duguai is the 3 of Spades. Only the king of the pair is the A of Spades.
Seeing the Ace of Spades coming into his hand, the King of Pairs almost smiled crookedly. He rubbed his hands impatiently, pressed the cover button, and kept blowing air into the cards, as if he wanted to blow away the bad luck in the cards.
But as the cards were lifted up little by little, his face turned the color of liver in an instant. He immediately put the cards back up and pretended to be indifferent.
The dealer said, "Ace, please."
The ACE here refers to the King of Pairs, because the King of Pairs has the highest exposed card value. According to the rules, he is the first to decide whether to call a bet.
The King's expression changed several times. He gritted his teeth and said, "I bet one hundred thousand." As he spoke, he threw the ten chips in front of him onto the table.
It was only 100,000. Blackfoot Seven and Chen Jintian smiled at each other. Blackfoot Seven was the second player clockwise. He touched Xiaohong's breast in his arms, grinned, and said, "I'll give you 500,000."
Chen Jintian also said immediately: "I will also give 500,000."
It was Wu Jie's turn. Going clockwise, Wu Jie was the fourth. For a moment, everyone's attention was focused on Wu Jie.
The other three had all seen their cards, but Wu Jie was the only one who hadn't touched his cards.
