Chapter 350 Nicole Robin
Alabasta is one of the superpowers in the pirate world, with a population of tens of millions and a standing army of more than 600,000. Compared with the sheriffs and guards of Tidal Island, this is considered an army.
However, due to the climate, the living environment of this country is average. Large areas of land are covered by yellow sand. Water resources are the most precious resources here, and every rain is precious.
It is precisely because of this that there has been a little chaos in the country in the past two or three months.
In almost three months, Alabasta only had a light rain in Albana, the capital of Alabasta, and the rest of the country fell into drought. More importantly, an important canal was dug up for some reason, causing several Already arid cities have fallen into a state of water shortage.
There were tired faces sweating under the scorching sun everywhere. The five-year-old girl Rose turned the faucet in the yard to the maximum, lay down and opened her mouth to the maximum. After waiting for a long time, a drop of water finally fell into her mouth. Satisfied, he poked his mouth a few times and thought about it for a long time.
She got up and turned off the faucet. She suddenly felt that the sky was getting darker. She was pleasantly surprised that it was cloudy, but when she raised her head, she found that it was only a tall man covering her.
Its clothes are obviously different from the ancient Egyptian style unique to Alabasta to protect against wind and sand, which made Rose startled: "Uncle?"
"Traveler. The little girl is at home alone?"
"Well... Dad went to buy water!" Rose smiled expectantly on her face, without any vigilance: "Going to the rainy place, what's the matter, uncle?"
"Yudi, I happen to be going to Yudi too, do you know which way to go?" Ji Xing asked.
"Over there!" Rose pointed out, "It's far away. If uncle has money, it's best to rent a camel before setting off."
"Money, I don't have much left." Ji Xing shook his head and untied a water bottle from his arms: "Little girl, do you have any? I'll exchange it for water."
Rose's eyes widened instantly, looking at the water in the kettle, she swallowed dryly, then quickly turned around and ran back home.
After some searching, she rushed out with a pile of shredded paper money, and when she reached Ji Xing, she took two or eight steps in embarrassment, and said with a troubled face, "Uncle, we haven't left here for three months." It's raining, water is very precious..."
"It's okay, I still have a lot."
"Really?" Rose happily passed her hands forward, "I don't know how much a pot of water costs now, I'll give you all of these, uncle!"
"Too many." Ji Xing said, and only picked out a 1,000 denomination note from her hand, "These are enough, thank you, little girl."
"Ah thank you, uncle!"
Luo Si cherished the kettle in her arms: "By the way, uncle, wait for me..."
"The kettle is also for you." Ji Xing waved away: "Be careful when you are alone at home."
"Yeah! Thank you uncle!" Rose thanked again and said goodbye. After watching Ji Xing's back disappear, she opened the kettle again, sipped a little bit that could only wet her lips, then covered the kettle again, and ran away with a silly happy smile back home.
Ji Xing went all the way, and when he left the small town, he had already distributed the four pots of water he had fetched from the oasis to similar children.
But in the desert, Ji Xing no longer restrained his speed. The little girl said that he needed to ride a camel to cross the long yellow sandy land. It took Ji Xing less than ten minutes to arrive at the city that has developed in Alabasta in recent years. — rainy land.
As the base camp of Qiwuhai Crocodile, the environment here is quite different from other places.
The country's drought and water shortage have not affected this place at all for the time being. The neighborhood is bustling and bustling, and the sound of hawking is endless, and the more you go to the center, especially the center of the Rain Banquet.
The resplendent casino is built like a palace. From time to time, people with red faces and rich clothes enter, and ordinary people with depressed or even collapsed expressions come out like walking corpses.
When Ji Xing came to the entrance of the casino, there happened to be a man in his thirties struggling to be dragged out by two casino guards.
"You can't do this!"
"Give me one more chance! Just give me one more chance! Just lend me another 10,000 Baileys!"
"My daughter is still at home waiting for me to buy water to go back! Please..."
The casino guard kicked and kicked him in disgust, making him shut up, and when he turned his head and saw Ji Xing, who was dressed differently from ordinary people, he immediately smiled again.
"Welcome, guest!"
Ji Xing responded with a smile: "This is the first time, can you tell me what to do?"
"Of course—" one of the bearded guards made a long voice: "Guests, please, please exchange chips first... How much do you want to exchange?"
Ji Xing took out a crumpled 1000 Bailey from his pocket: "These?"
The smiles of the two guards disappeared immediately, they didn't bother to pay attention to Ji Xing, and went back to the casino, even ignoring the man lying on the ground sobbing softly.
Ji Xing didn't look at him either. He stepped into the casino and went to the chip exchange to exchange the 1,000 Baileys into a small chip. He looked around and moved to a gaming table.
"big big big!"
"Small! Small! Small!"
The simplest thing to do is to roll the dice to guess the size, but because the table is full of chips representing money, all the faces are full of fanaticism.
No one paid attention to the newly joined Ji Xing, let alone the 1000 Bailey.
It wasn't until 1,000 Baileys became 2,000, then 4,000, 8,000, 16,000, and until it rolled to 128,000 Baileys, that all eyes around the gaming table focused on Ji Xing.
"This person...doesn't seem to have lost?"
"It's all-in every time..."
"Amazing luck!"
So when Ji Xing bet again, countless chips moved with him, making the dealer in charge of rolling the dice swallow nervously.
"Big! It really is big!"
"Hit again, hahahaha..."
"Finally paid back, thank you so much!"
Ji Xing remained motionless, just watching the dealer silently, waiting for him to shake the dice cup again.
The banker wiped the sweat from his forehead, and he didn't move for a long time, which aroused the condemnation of the crowd. The casino responded quickly and quickly noticed the situation here.
"The guest seems to be a master, do you dare to play two rounds with me? If you can beat me, the casino will pay double the pay" He spoke in a bewitching tone.
The surrounding gamblers were dissatisfied, but seeing a group of fierce and vicious guards quickly gathered around, they resentfully dared not speak.
"Normal games are welcome, but if you want to play tricks...huh!" The middle-aged Mazi glanced at them coldly, and smiled again when he looked at Ji Xing: "Guest, you are an expert, and you don't want these people Follow you and make money casually, right?"
"Well, that's true, very thoughtful." Ji Xing's words made the people around him lose their temper even more, and even those who were angry didn't dare to attack, "Is it double payout? Then let's play a few rounds."
The middle-aged Mazi smiled even wider. He picked up the dice cup and shook it frantically, then tapped it hard on the table: "Let's guess the size, please."
Ji Xing pushed the chip: "Big."
The middle-aged Mazi nodded, and with a slight movement of the little finger of the hand holding the dice cup, one of the three dice in the dice cup suddenly rolled from 6 o'clock to 1 o'clock.
"Sorry, guest, it's..."
'4, 4, 6. '
"is big?!"
"Oh..." There was a low cry from around.
How can this be? ! I clearly...
The middle-aged Mazi lowered his head in astonishment and then at Ji Xing in astonishment, forced a smile: "The guest is indeed very powerful, shall we come again?"
"256,000 Bailey, if the payout is doubled, it is now 768,000, right?"
Ji Xing nodded: "Okay, let's come again."
Mazi's middle age gradually became ferocious.
...
Ten minutes later, on the top floor of the casino, the door of the manager's office was knocked hastily, and guards with mustaches rushed in.
Sitting behind the desk was a young woman with red and black pupils, who was holding a book and reading when she heard the sound and raised her head.
"What's wrong?"
"No, it's not good! Your Excellency Sunday! Here comes a powerful guy who has already won more than 60 million yuan from Leiber. He, he dare not continue. If we lose another round, we will pay to That person has nearly 200 million Baileys!"
"That's it." Nicole Robin lowered her head indifferently, and continued to read: "In opening a casino, there are winners and losers. When you meet a master, give him the money he won, and please go out with good words." Well, you don't need to ask me."
"Just, that's it?"
Robin stopped answering, and waited for the mustache in front of him to go out, then stood up and walked to the window.
She knew that these people would not follow her orders, and she couldn't control Crocodile's people. She just hoped that they wouldn't hurt the other party's life, and see if she wanted to stop them.
After waiting for a minute, she didn't see any movement in front of the casino door. She frowned strangely and heard the door open again behind her.
"how……"
In the middle of the question, she turned around and saw an unfamiliar face, and her expression changed slightly: "Are you... the one who won 60 million Baileys?"
"Ah, you casinos are a little careless."
Robin asked again: "Where's Leiber and the others? It's that pockmarked face who gambled with you."
"What do you think?" Ji Xing asked back.
"Really, it's so pitiful, has it already been dismembered by you?" Robin sighed softly.
"..." Ji Xing smiled: "No, that's not enough. After all, winning some money is just a matter of chance. I'm here to find you, son of the devil, Nicole Robin."
I'm guilty, I repent, I couldn't resist watching the game all night, these two overtime games were shown to me, I slept at six o'clock and didn't get up until two o'clock, the next chapter will be late, before 11 o'clock.
