Chapter 1167 Wang Long 4 Seas
He Shiming looked troubled. If it were one or two hundred million, he would not hesitate at all, but if he had to take out five hundred million, it would be fine if he won, but if he lost, he would have no say in the board of directors.
After Sir Joseph Hosey passed away, his lawyers did divide his estate according to his will. However, apart from the two companies and real estate, the two billion was 10% of the group's shares, which could not be liquidated before he turned thirty.
To come up with 500 million now, he can only use his two companies as collateral. One of his companies is a real estate company, and the other is a jade company. The combined market value of these two companies is 700 million, so mortgaging 500 million is no problem.
Long Sihai said in a low voice,
"Young Master He, don't worry. As long as we can get him to sit at the gambling table with me, no matter how much wealth he has, it will all be ours in the end. There's an old Chinese saying: 'You can't catch a wolf without risking your cub.'"
He Shiming gritted his teeth and nodded in agreement, but he had one condition: if Long Sihai won the bet, the winnings would be split 40/60, with Long Sihai getting 40% and him getting 60%, and Zuo Mingyue would also belong to him.
Long Sihai smiled and agreed, but in the instant he lowered his head, a cold glint flashed in his eyes, and the corners of his mouth slightly turned up.
The two parties agreed to start the official gambling game at 7:30 pm. It was quite a large-scale event. The game was, of course, all-in poker, with each side betting 500 million. The casino was responsible for distributing the chips. After the agreement was made, the two parties dispersed.
The scenic hotel has its own restaurant, where the chef is particularly skilled at cooking Portuguese cuisine. Even the Portuguese governor would occasionally dine there. However, the restaurant, which is usually packed, only had a few people inside.
The waiters and chefs were so frightened they were trembling all over. Two of the waiters, who had cystitis, even urinated in fright.
Ten minutes ago, Wenwen, Niuniu, and Nuannuan woke up and saw that their older brother and sister-in-law were not around. The three little girls pouted and almost cried. Fortunately, Little Tiger and Little Wolf surrounded them at that moment, so the children stopped crying.
Hearing the noise, Xiao Liuzi pushed open the door and came in. Seeing that the children were awake, he quickly helped them wash their faces and hands. Wenwen and Niuniu were both hungry and their stomachs were growling, so they asked Xiao Liuzi to take them to eat something.
Xiao Liuzi quickly agreed, but he never expected that the children would ride the tiger and the white wolf to eat. He couldn't stop them and could only lead the way. When they arrived at the restaurant, the waiters screamed and ran away.
Niu Niu sat on the little tiger's back, holding Nuan Nuan in her arms. Wen Wen rode on the little white wolf's back. Although the children's clothes were a bit rustic, their appearance made them look like they had stepped out of a painting.
Helpless, Xiao Liuzi led his group of young ladies to the private room. With a pained expression, he ordered the chef to start preparing the food. One dish after another was ready, but the waiters dared not bring them in; only Xiao Liuzi could carry them in one by one.
When Da Bao and Zuo Mingyue arrived, the little ones had already eaten their fill. Although Nuan Nuan was the smallest, she was the healthiest; the two of them combined didn't eat as much as she did.
Portuguese cuisine is generally light and suitable for children. Xiao Liuzi thoughtfully made roast chicken and braised pork knuckle for Little Tiger and Little White Wolf, who enjoyed their meal very much.
He Xin was initially startled, but he was a very composed person, so even if he was scared, he wouldn't show it on his face. However, seeing the little tiger and the little white wolf nestled beside Da Bao and Zuo Mingyue, He Xin's understanding of Da Bao was renewed. To He Xin, Da Bao was no longer an ordinary person; he could be described as a god.
He Xin accompanied Da Bao and Zuo Mingyue to dinner. Xiao Dao insisted on standing by and serving them. Da Bao knew his personality, so he didn't insist. However, Zuo Mingyue couldn't enjoy being served like that, but seeing Da Bao accept it happily, she endured it.
He Xin poured a glass of red wine for Da Bao. Seeing that Zuo Mingyue was pregnant and had a big belly, he didn't dare to pour wine for her. Little did he know, Zuo Mingyue was more than ten times more addicted to alcohol than Da Bao.
Zuo Mingyue licked her lips, her mouth watering at the sight of the red wine. Da Bao took a small sip; the wine, made from grapes, had a low alcohol content, so it was just a drink for Zuo Mingyue. He poured her a large glass, and Zuo Mingyue happily squinted her eyes, enjoying her food and wine in a very pleasant manner.
He Xin said in a low voice.
"Boss, I've always suspected that this Long Sihai is from Japan. He came to Macau to pave the way for the Japanese army. Fu Laorong's rise to power was inseparable from this man's behind-the-scenes manipulation."
I have studied all of Fu Laorong's relatives and friends, and only Long Sihai is the most terrifying. He was once known as the King of Gamblers, and it was said that his eyes could see through playing cards. But he had indeed been gambling for decades and had almost no losses.
As for his loss to you today, it's probably because dice aren't his strong suit. The reason he wanted to gamble with you on all-in tonight is likely because he's prepared to swallow our entire business whole.
So, I'd like to add that you should be extra careful.
Da Bao wasn't afraid of Long Sihai at all. He possessed two powerful cheating tools: one was his consciousness that covered the entire gambling hall, a kind of "divine eye" in Buddhism and Taoism, allowing him to see through everything. Even if Long Sihai had the ability to see through playing cards, compared to Da Bao, he was nothing.
Another point is space. Da Bao can use space to freely switch his and his opponent's cards without being detected, unless the opponent is staring intently at his cards. Even then, he can only watch his cards suddenly disappear and then reappear. But what can he do if he sees it? Can he use such evidence to accuse the other party of cheating? That would be a complete joke.
"The Japanese devils? Perfect, I'll make some money to buy clothes for my wife and sister."
He Xin smiled. This was the true hero in his heart. No matter how powerful the enemy was, in his eyes they were nothing more than ants.
The little tiger poked its huge head over, its eyes wide open, a chicken bone between its teeth, and stared at He Xin. Although He Xin was very scared, he gritted his teeth and reached out to touch its head. He was surprised to find that it felt so good.
Dabao said with a smile.
"This guy knows best who's good and bad. He knows you're the highest-ranking person in this hotel. He's just trying to please you, why would he want roast chicken?"
He Xin then noticed that the little tiger's eyes weren't fierce, but rather adorable big eyes. He happily turned to the waiter and shouted loudly.
"Roast chicken, bring on the roast chicken right now! Bring as much as you can."
The waiter agreed and quickly ran out of the restaurant. The little tiger's eyes shone even brighter. It spat out the chicken bone and rubbed its head against He Xin's hand. He Xin was even happier; his fear vanished instantly. ...
