Night.
Around 11 pm.
The cruise ship had entered international waters, and there is still half an hour before the Casino starts. The announcement was repeated twice to let everyone be ready.
In the cabin.
Room VIP7.
Dong Xuebing, who was sleeping in another room, woke up. He looked at his watch and yawned before getting out of bed. He put on his clothes with one hand and walked out of the room. In the living room, Zhang Longjuan had woken up and was smoking on the sofa. Two silver briefcases were lying beside her. Shen Xiaoyan and Shen Xiaomei were sitting opposite her. Dong Xuebing does not know when they returned, but from their expressions, they should have completed their missions and found out a lot of things.
"Xiao Dong, you are awake?" Zhang Longjuan looked at Dong Xuebing and smiled.
Dong Xuebing nodded. "I just woke up. How was your sleep?"
Zhang Longjuan replied. "I'm fine. Haha … let's go. It's about time."
Shen Xiaomei picked up one of the briefcases. "We just need to find out who is the boss of this ship."
"There's no hurry. There's still a night. When the gambling begins, even if the other party doesn't show up, there should be clues. As long as the person in charge appears, it won't be difficult to follow the clues and find the melon."
Shen Xiaomei nodded. "Ok."
Shen Xiaoyan said. "Manager Zhang, I heard from my sister why you are back." She paused for a while and asked worriedly. "Are you confident?"
Zhang Longjuan laughed. "Of course not. I will give it a try."
Shen Xiaoyan said. "When we enter the Casino, my sister and I might have other things to do. We might not be able to accompany you all the time."
"Xiao Dong will be around. You all can carry on with your work."
"Ok. But if you need any help, we also want to help you."
"Haha … you are talking about the gambling? You all might not be able to help me, but I will thank you for your help. "
"I am afraid there is something fishy going on with this Casino. If they tamper with the gambling equipment, you will not win."
"Don't worry. They do not have the guts to ruin their reputation. You all are still young and don't know what the Casino cares about the most?" Zhang Longjuan said with a smile, "It's not about how much money they earn, but their reputation. Nobody is a fool. If there's something fishy going on, people will find out sooner or later. When the news gets out, who would want to board their boat? They won't be that stupid. I've said it before, casinos are always profitable. Even high school students know how to calculate a ratio, so there's no need for them to cheat to earn money. That's just a waste of time, so whether they can win money or not depends on their skills and luck. "
Shen Xiaoyan looked at her and said, "Luck is too unpredictable."
Zhang Longjuan smiled. "I know you're worried about me. Thank you, but my company can't wait any longer. I can only take this gamble."
"Then … I wish you good luck."
"Hehe, thank you for your auspicious words."
It was getting closer and closer to twelve o 'clock, so they went out to relieve themselves.
The moment they went out, Zhang Longjuan hugged Dong Xuebing's arm intimately.
But as they got closer to the Casino, Dong Xuebing knew this bet concerns the survival of Sister Zhang's company and her livelihood. She had even sold her house. It's fine if she can win a few tens of millions to 100 million USD, and her company might still have some leeway. But if she loses all 5 million USD, her company will collapse, and Zhang Longjuan will be penniless. She might even owe a lot of debts, and she might not even be able to afford meals in the future.
Zhang Longjuan is not nervous at all.
But Dong Xuebing is more nervous than her and cares more than her. If it's possible, Dong Xuebing wants Zhang Longjuan to survive this crisis and make a comeback. After all, Dong Xuebing and Zhang Longjuan's relationship is not normal anymore. If they are not close, who will let him touch her thighs? That's why Dong Xuebing, who is closer to Zhang Longjuan, is leaning towards her.
I hope everything goes well for Sister Zhang.
Hopefully, she can win 200 million USD to settle her company's financial problems.
… …
In front.
They had reached the Casino.
There are a few hundred people waiting outside.
It was a very grand door. It was five to six meters tall, and the door was inlaid with gold. It faintly revealed a touch of grandeur, and it was extremely luxurious.
Dong … the bell rang.
It's 12 o 'clock.
With a creak, the door was slowly pulled open from the inside.
Immediately, dozens of female dealers and male staff in professional attire stood at the door. Their neat and tidy appearance showed that they had received professional training. The moment the door was completely opened, the dealers and staff all bowed and said "Welcome" in unison.
What a grand scene!
Even the casinos in Merrica are not as grand as this.
Dong Xuebing narrowed his eyes. What Sister Zhang said is right. A casino of this scale will not cheat on the gambling equipment. That will be cutting off their source of income. The casino had only been operating for a few months, and if they were found to be cheating, they might not even recoup the cost of building the cruise. Dong Xuebing had heard that Zhang Longjuan is good at gambling. If the Casino does not have any problems, even if she does not win a lot of money, she should not lose a lot. Dong Xuebing relaxed a little. He must look on the bright side.
The door opened.
Everyone entered the room.
"Manager Zhang, you are here?" Manager Wei, whom Dong Xuebing had met on the yacht, walked over and greeted Zhang Longjuan. Behind him, Manager Leng is also there.
Zhang Longjuan returned a greeting.
Manager Leng asked. "Do you want to book a VIP room?"
Zhang Longjuan smiled. "Let's talk later. I need to familiarize myself with the place first."
Manager Wei laughed. "You are more familiar with this place than me."
"Haha … I had not played for a few years." Zhang Longjuan replied.
Manager Leng smoothed his hair and smiled. "Alright. We will go now. See you later."
"Ok." Zhang Longjuan smiled. "Congratulations on getting rich."
Manager Wei and Manager Leng seem to be close, and they might be frequent visitors of this cruise. They left together and asked their bodyguards to go to one of the counters to exchange chips.
Zhang Longjuan turned around. "Let's exchange chips too."
Shen Xiaoyan looked at Zhang Longjuan. "How much do you want?"
Zhang Longjuan laughed. "All of them, of course."
Shen Xiaoyan and Shen Xiaomei were stunned, but they did not say anything and went to queue up.
There are many people waiting to exchange chips, and the queue is very long. But because Zhang Longjuan's gold card is of a higher level, there are a few counters open for her. Before long, Dong Xuebing saw Shen Xiaoyan and her bodyguards' turn.
Dong Xuebing does not know much about gambling, as this is his first time visiting such a big casino. He asked. "Sister Zhang, how do I get 5 million worth of chips?"
"What do you mean?"
"It's too much. Can the box fit all of them?"
Zhang Longjuan laughed. "If I exchange all of them for 10,000, it's not a lot. There are only 500 chips."
Dong Xuebing was shocked. "10,000? There are still 10,000 RMB chips here? "
If it's RMB, it's fine. But these are all USD chips. 10,000 USD? That's tens of thousands of RMB, and it's just a chip?
Zhang Longjuan explained, "I've asked and understood the situation in advance. The chips here are much bigger than in normal casinos. Many of the gambling devices have different odds and methods. Hehe, let's put it this way. The lowest chip here is a thousand USD, and then there are five thousand USD and ten thousand USD. That's the only three types. Otherwise, why do you think the casino would not even let those who don't have some money in? What's the point of gambling if they only buy a few dozen chips? "
The lowest chip is a thousand USD???
Dong Xuebing was speechless. There are so many rich people here. This number might be normal for Zhang Longjuan, but to Dong Xuebing, it's ridiculous.
Damn!
This was too big of a gamble!
Only businessmen like Zhang Longjuan can afford to do this. Dong Xuebing might be rich but does not have a stable income, and he can't afford to do this!
The twin sisters returned.
Dong Xuebing opened the box, and the USD inside is empty. Only a bunch of colorful chips are left. Some have 10,000 USD, and some have 1,000 USD. Most of the chips are worth 1,000 USD.
"The main chips are worth 1,000 USD." Shen Xiaomei replied.
Zhang Longjuan grunted, "Okay, that should be enough. Hehe, but if it's not enough, then it's just this. Big Sis only has this much money now."
Dong Xuebing asked. "Are we playing now?"
Zhang Longjuan nodded. "Let's familiarize ourselves with the game first."
Shen Xiaoyan replied. "I will wait for you from afar. Call me if you need anything."
Zhang Longjuan knew Shen Xiaoyan has other matters to attend to and whispered to her. "Be careful. There are cameras in every corner of the casino. Don't get caught."
Shen Xiaoyan replied. "I know."
Zhang Longjuan did not say anything and took out a bunch of chips from the box. She smiled and pushed them into Dong Xuebing's hands. "Alright. You go and play too."
Dong Xuebing quickly pushed it back. "No … I am not playing."
Zhang Longjuan laughed. "Go ahead. You are my lover, and you can't just stand there and watch. People will get suspicious. Just play, and it doesn't matter if you win or lose. "
Dong Xuebing thought for a while and pushed the chips back. He only picked a few 1,000 USD chips from the pile. "These are enough for me."
"Are you sure? How much is this? "
"Ok. It's enough. I also don't know how to gamble."
"Alright. If it's not enough, you can ask me for more."
Dong Xuebing does not want to ask her for more chips. These are Zhang Longjuan's last assets, and every chip is important. Dong Xuebing does not want to waste them.
