"Lord Viscount, long time no see, good evening!""Oh, it's Felix patriarch. I heard that your Business Group has recently opened up a new business route, congratulations!"
"Thank you, sir! Well, if you are interested in this, I just have a batch to go. , why don't you buy it too?"
"Haha, I'm taking advantage of it this time. Please, let's go over there to discuss in detail."
"Don't dare, you Please!"
...the number of people entering the lobby dwindled over time. At this time, the great characters of Cold Water City began to appear one after another.
After all, Titus is an empire dominated by the aristocracy. Although business groups such as Huais can bring huge benefits, the big nobles also give face when they communicate with each other. But the rules handed down from ancient times, such as banquet rankings, still have to be based on the level of the nobles.
One after another, the great nobles appeared, the scene gradually became lively, and the banquet was about to begin... "Aha, isn't this Your Excellency Arthur?"
Tang En just walked through the short In the corridor, Fei Rui couldn't wait to wave hello and greeted him from the crowd.
"Oh, it's Your Excellency Jack."
...After the performance, the two greeted each other at close range. Tang En lips slightly moving, lowered his voice: "What's the situation?"
"I can't tell for a while, I was pulled to the gambling table, and you almost lost all the money you gave me earlier!" Ferry After muttering at a very fast rate, he patted Tang En on the shoulder with an excited expression on his face, "Your Excellency Arthur, since you have met, why don't you come and play with me?"
"Damn... "Tang En said in a depressed voice, before in order to guard against the unexpected, he gave Fei Rui a thousand gold coins by his side. As for Bosco, he has the remaining money to purchase, so naturally he doesn't need it.
The distance between the two was widened, Tang En showed a hint of interest, and stroked his sleeves, "I'm a veteran of such fun things, you should have called me over earlier."
The two of them greeted casually, and the people at the table over there were already waiting impatiently. When Perry introduced Tang En to the crowd, Tang En glanced at the table top, where there was a large bowl-shaped groove with a dozen lines evenly spaced on the inner wall, and marked the numbers from one to twelve. A crystal ball is now parked at the bottom of the nine. In front of everyone, there are stacks of thick or thin golden tickets.
"Jack brother, you're the only one left. Hurry up, hurry up..." After greeting each other, a fatty who looked like a businessman kept urging.
"Okay." Fei Rui gave Tang En a color, then picked up the crystal ball inside and placed it in his palm, close to the bowl-shaped groove, the thumb exerted force, and the ball quickly rotated along the inner wall , In the crisp sound, the ball spun about five times, and after exhausting its strength, it finally landed at the bottom of Er.
"Alas..." "Ha..."
A few sighs and a cheer. The fatty who looked like a businessman just now quickly put away a few gold tickets with a face value of one hundred by the table, with a beaming expression on his face, "Haha, sorry everyone, it seems that I am blessed by Light God tonight."
"Come again, come again..." The other people were obviously unconvinced and put the one hundred golden tickets on the table again.
Ferry pushed out the last golden ticket in front of him, and then whispered the rules in Tang En's ear.
After a few words, Tang En understood nodded, this game is actually very simple, just throw a small ball, let it spin more than three times in the bowl-shaped groove, and then watch it stop at in which digit. Whoever is the greatest can receive the money from the others. If two people are tied, the two continue to throw until the winner is determined.
As for the taboo, if the ball does not turn three times, or if the ball slips out of the groove with too much force, it will be eliminated.
While speaking, Fei Rui threw again, this time it was a gorgeous stop on the second, and the odds of winning were slim.
"Wait, how many are you..." Tang En stroked his forehead, and then patted Ferry's shoulder, who was hit on his face, and secretly shoved another stack of golden tickets.
"Everyone." Tang En saluted briefly, looking at the entertainment props on the table with an excited look, "How about me?"
"Oh? Arthur brother Are you also interested?" Because fatty won another game just now, red light waved his hand, "It doesn't matter, it's fun to have a lot of people, I don't mind."
"I don't mind either, let's get started. ”
…Eight people even Tang En on the table seemed to be interested, and no one objected, so Tang En joined in immediately after taking a golden ticket, and they were ranked first in Fei. Behind Rui, that is, at the end.
Soon, under Ferry's speechless gaze, the ball he threw stopped on the second.
"Haha!" Everyone couldn't help laughing at the hammer table, and then Tang En picked up the crystal ball, played with it a little, and threw it at will near the groove.
"Twelve, twelve... eh?" In Tang En's repeated whispers, after the crystal ball spun four times, it landed on Er, who had just stopped.
"Haha, you, you are really..."
"Sorry! What a heaven-defying... tragic luck. This coincidence made the others laugh out loud.
"Haha, you're just talking about me, Arthur, you..." Ferry had an expression of taking pleasure in other people's misfortune, but as he approached, he whispered, "Have you had any? Are you sure? Why don't we find an excuse to withdraw?"
Ferry had lost a thousand gold coins before, he is not a wealthy aristocratic businessman like the others, so he doesn't care about that. He called Tang En to come, not without the idea of a comeback. But from the current situation, the strength of the brilliant is useless.
"It's okay." Tang En responded in a low voice, then waved his hand, showing his unwillingness, "come again, come again..."
How can anyone win money when they come up? Don't make a fuss about it. even more how he has simply not played this before, the weight of the crystal ball, the circumference of the bowl-shaped groove, etc. are only preliminary estimates, not clear. But this is the case. Tang En's random throw just now actually wanted to land on one, but there was an error, and it ended up being two like Feirui... The second round started again, and the numbers thrown by everyone came out one after another. Before Ferry, the fatty merchant was still the highest, throwing a full 10 points. Obviously, this is already a high number in the game, almost a sure win.
Ferry wiped the sweat from his forehead. To be honest, he was really nervous. If Tang En hadn't been by his side, he would have definitely run away. After gesturing a few times, the ball spun out, and after six laps, a black line appeared on Fei Rui's head. At this time, his strength was exhausted, and the ball was obviously rushing towards the decimals such as one, two, and three.
"Your mother!" Sure enough, this time the ball was not as good as last time, and stopped directly on the ground.
"Haha..." Everyone raised their heads and laughed again. I have to say that although I lost money, it is definitely worth seeing such a wonderful scene.
"Brother, don't be too sad!" With a sad expression on his face, patted Fei Rui's shoulder, Tang En took a deep breath: "Your sacrifice is definitely worthwhile, you have thrown it all away , I'm definitely twelve this time."
"..." Fei Ruimu stood there, his face speechless.
Roller...the ball spun along the inner wall under Tang En's random toss. It wasn't until after eight laps that the strength gradually weakened, and it slid down sharply.
"Uh..." Everyone looked a little stunned at this time, as long as they slowed down, the approximate range is still easy to judge. And according to the trend of the ball, it is either twelve or one!
"Twelve, Twelve..."
"One, One..."
The charm of gambling, competition, etc. is here, When the interest comes up, they will involuntarily throw away the shackles of identity and ignore the concentrated attention completely of the image. Tang En and the fatty businessman are like this now, staring straight at the ball, shouting one after another.
Finally, the ball was exhausted on the twelve-digit grid, rolling forward slowly with inertia, and finally came to the middle of the line between twelve and one.
"Turn, turn..." The fatty businessman's face was flushed, and he could not wait to stick it directly to blow his breath and let the ball move forward obediently.
However, it backfired. After the ball stopped, it turned a little bit, and most of it landed on the twelve-digit grid.
"Haha..." Tang En let out a long laugh, his face full of unconcealed excitement, collecting the golden ticket on the table, "Jack brother, thank you for transferring your luck to me. Ha, everyone sorry!"
The bet started again, and the next thing was weirder.
Tang En has wins and losses, wins more and loses less, and soon a high golden ticket is piled up in front of him. There's nothing surprising about this, but the point is that every time Tang En wins, it's basically after Ferry rolls a decimal. And the probability of Ferry throwing a decimal is too high... The most depressing thing in this situation is not the ones who lose the most money, but the fatty businessmen. He had a high chance of throwing a high number, but the overwhelming majority were all overwhelmed by Tang En. Once, after throwing twelve, he was tied and then pushed down again... After a few times, the one in front of fatty The golden ticket gradually decreased, and he raised his head to look at Tang En's ecstatic red face, then looked down at the spinning ball, shook his head, his face full of bitterness. In the end, the frozen expression was looking at Fei Rui with a resentful look on his face... Of course Tang En could feel Fatty's observation, but if he saw the weak spot, then Tang En could really commit suicide.
This game seems simple, it seems that as long as Proficient is strong, you can win without losing. However, it is not so easy in actual operation. The prescribed three rotations limit a lot. People are not machines. Even if you calculate the strength in your heart, there will still be errors every time you use it. It tests subtle operations. As long as you don't cheat, no matter how strong you are, it won't help much. After all, the essence of Battle Qi is domineering. But Tang En is different, he can use a dagger to go around his hands with Rapid Speed several times without hurting, not to mention the small ball.
Of course, that's not to say that no one else has the means at all. As long as you can calm down and exercise hard, even an ordinary person can gradually touch that subtle feeling. For example, the faty businessman in front of him, Tang En, after several observations, has already seen that the reason why he can roll high numbers is not because of Light God's blessing, but because he has definitely practiced this.
It can be seen that the reason is simple, because when he throws the high number, the ball is basically only spun three times. To know that the more laps you turn, the harder it is to control the force. And this is also the reason why he doubts Tang En, but always deny himself. Because the small balls thrown by Tang En are basically turned in a circle... Here, you can know Tang En's technique, that is, Ferry, who is familiar with him. Although his own points always made him embarrassed, but looking at the gold tickets that kept pushing up in front of Tang En, Fei Rui was still excited. Thinking about it, he earned 600 gold coins. Ten is 6,000, 100 is 60,000... There is no such efficiency in opening a gold mine!
"Ai, Jack, why are you two again? How can you be worthy of the other brothers? This makes me win all sorry, haha..." Tang En picked up the ball, his face full of wins The arrogant look after that.
Fei Rui consciously covered his face and cooperated to make a lurking face. The other people, after seeing his points, no longer felt excited, they all stared at him full of resentment.
"Okay, watch me throw another twelve!"
影軘, dong dong dong...the ball flies out of the groove after one rotation, on the table It bounced a few times and landed on the ground.
"Uh..."
"Haha, I won!" The fatty businessman clenched his fists and raised his head and shouted, tears streaming down his face, it's really not easy.
Fei Rui turned his head slightly astonished and looked towards Tang En, while Tang En had a complicated look on his face, his body trembled violently, and stared straight at the main entrance of the hall...
