Chapter 1163 You think you're worthy to gamble with me?
An Deng's hands trembled. He knew exactly what the dice showed when he rolled them himself: two sixes and a five, a total of seventeen. This time, opening the dice cup revealed another five hundred thousand gone.
Sweat poured down his face. Dark Light never expected that he, known as the King of Dice, was ranked among the top three in the entire Macau when it came to dice gambling. No one dared to surpass Yip Hon in terms of gambling skills.
This time, he actually lost to three unknown foreigners. Looking at the gamblers shouting desperately, he said to the three foreigners in a sinister tone.
"Gentlemen, know when to stop and don't cause unnecessary trouble."
The foreigner sitting in the middle smiled coldly upon hearing this. He picked up a chip, which seemed to come alive, jumping between his fingers.
"I, Henri René, known as the King of Gambling in France, have never been threatened in my entire life. What, are you guys in Macau so domineering that you won't allow others to win money?"
This guy with the dim light is just a con artist; he might be able to deal with some scoundrels and petty criminals, but he's far from being able to handle a big international con artist like this.
Xiao Dao quickly parted the crowd and respectfully led Da Bao and Zuo Mingyue to the gambling table.
Xiao Dao said to Henry with a half-smile.
"The French gambling king? What a prestigious title, Mr. Henry. Our Scenic Hotel is here to do business, so we're not afraid of our guests winning money. Today, no matter how you play, our Scenic Hotel will play along to the end."
He turned to the dim light and said...
"No need to open the dice cup. We'll consider this a loss and compensate you gentlemen."
The gamblers were speechless. The casino didn't even consider half of the wins and losses, and just paid out money directly. What was there to complain about?
"Darklights pay out the money according to the number of chips," Henry René laughed.
“Great, this is the only way I can really enjoy myself. Excuse me, sir, is there a limit to how much you can play?”
Xiao Dao shook his head and said with a smile.
"Absolutely not. As long as you have the ability, you can keep winning."
Henri Renée's chips kept tumbling incessantly as he spoke dismissively.
"Can you make the decision? I heard your general manager here is named He Xin. Don't wait until we win the money and then he denies it, otherwise we'll have to go and reason with the Portuguese governor."
Suddenly a voice came from outside the crowd.
"What Steward Qin says goes. Sir, no matter how much money you win, I, He Xin, guarantee that I will compensate you."
Hearing the sound, everyone parted to let in. He Xin and his secretary rushed in. He Xin immediately spotted Da Bao, and his eyes reddened instantly.
He Xin went from walking briskly to jogging, and when he reached Da Bao, he bowed deeply and said in a trembling voice.
"Boss, you're finally back."
He rushed back after hearing the report from his subordinates, unaware that Da Bao had already returned. Upon seeing him, he was so excited he almost prostrated himself on the ground.
Da Bao patted He Xin on the shoulder and said softly.
"I've heard about it. You've done a great job, really great. With you here, I feel very reassured."
"Henry René said impatiently."
"You Chinese are so long-winded. We're here to gamble, not to listen to you talk. Now, who's going to gamble with us? Is it you, young man?"
Da Bao gave him a disdainful look, a wicked smile creeping onto his lips.
"You want to gamble with me? You think you're worthy? My wife can easily take you down."
Henri René glanced at Zuo Mingyue, who had been covering her nose the whole time; the stench of these men's sweat was too strong and suffocating her. Only then did she lower her hand.
Unexpectedly, Henri René jumped up immediately upon seeing Zuo Mingyue, and the two foreigners beside him also stood up in surprise. The three of them quickly separated the gamblers, came to Zuo Mingyue, knelt down on one knee, and exclaimed with their right hands on their chests.
"Princess Sofia Philippe, Baron Henri René greets you."
Da Bao didn't understand French. He looked at He Xin with a puzzled expression. He Xin was a language genius who was fluent in seven languages, so of course he understood French. He was also shocked.
“Boss, this Henri René is a baron. He says your wife is Princess Sofia Philippe.”
After the French Revolution, the monarchy abdicated. Although the French monarchy no longer ruled, the noble titles remained. Throughout France, there were 3,500 noble families with a population of over 100,000, residing in the 8th and 16th arrondissements of Paris.
Although this number is not huge, these 100,000 people control two-fifths of the wealth of all of France. It is only now that the people's hearts are scattered; otherwise, they would definitely have the ability to restore the monarchy.
Da Bao switched to English.
“You’ve mistaken me for someone else. My wife’s name is Adele, not Princess Sofia.”
Henri René, of course, understood English. He stood up in confusion, looked at Zuo Mingyue carefully, and noticed the difference. Princess Sofia Philippe was now over forty years old. Even with the secret to preserving youth, she could not return to the beautiful and delicate appearance of eighteen.
Da Bao whispered the story to Zuo Mingyue, giving a brief account. Zuo Mingyue was a bold girl, and when she heard that he was going to gamble with this foreigner, she was eager to try it out.
Dabao said softly.
"Henry, if you can't even beat my wife, then your title of French gambling king is just an empty name."
The preference for sons over daughters exists in 80% of the world's countries. When Henri René heard Da Bao's words, his face immediately turned red. He pointed at Da Bao for a long time without saying a word. Was he crazy to argue with a Chinese person?
Zuo Mingyue walked to the gambling table, picked up the dice cup, but lost her grip and slammed it onto the table. The gamblers couldn't help but burst into laughter. They could tell that this girl was a complete novice and knew nothing about gambling.
Xiao Dao quickly had someone bring out a new dice cup and dice, and placed them in front of Zuo Mingyue. Zuo Mingyue carefully placed the dice into the dice cup, then picked it up with both hands, shook it vigorously twice, and then placed it on the gambling table.
She had no idea what to do next and could only look at Da Bao with embarrassment. Da Bao gestured to the dim light. Anyone who could be a con artist knew how to read people's expressions. Seeing his general manager being so humble, he knew that the legendary boss had arrived.
Seeing his boss gesture to him, he hurriedly smiled and nodded repeatedly. Standing to Zuo Mingyue's right, he addressed Henri René and the others.
"Please place your bet."
Henri René couldn't help but burst into laughter. This girl, who looked exactly like Princess Sofia, was clearly a first-timer at dice. He didn't even need to exert much effort to recognize the dice: two twos, one, five points...
