"Why don't we just take down the Gambling King as well?" Zhou Zhihui asked.
"Ah, Zhihui, Zhihui, I really wonder how you managed to become the boss of the Deep Well Gang. What benefit would we gain from attacking the Gambling King? Would taking over his casino be beneficial to us? No, no, no, it would bring us no benefit at all, and we might even lose money. Firstly, the Gambling King already runs a casino in our entertainment venues, and this brings us a lot of profit. If we were to attack him, just considering the power of his subordinates, would it be so easy for us to swallow his operations? Not to mention, we also have to face the Poison King and Ran Tai's people. Of course! The local government hopes someone will come forward and give them a tough time, so it's only natural for us to go after the Poison King and Ran Tai. If we attack the Gambling King, it would seem ruthless and betray a potential ally. How could we maintain our standing in Peng City after such a move?" Qin Xiweng explained.
"A wise insight, Leader! Zhihui was clueless," Zhou Zhihui said awkwardly. He certainly hadn't thought as far ahead as Qin Xiweng, nor had he considered Qin Xiweng's perspective on the potential outcomes. He was only focused on the immediate step ahead.
"Hehe, just watch closely in the future, Peng City will soon fall into our hands. Alright, go and instruct your men to cleanly swipe a batch of high-priced arms from Ran Tai. I've received intelligence that they will be trading at the Shekou dock tomorrow night. Remember, be clean and decisive," Qin Xiweng ordered with a smile.
"Yes, Boss, I'll arrange it right away." Zhou Zhihui then left, directing several of his top men to take action. He knew Qin Xiweng was planning something big, so he didn't hold back.
After Zhou Zhihui left, Qin Xiweng picked up the phone and made a call. Once connected, Qin Xiweng said, "Soon Peng City will be mine, and you can expect a promotion!"
"Hehe, with my promotion, you'll benefit too. Besides, we're like father and son..."
"Don't talk to me about being like father and son. I never wanted to call you my dad. All I want is for my mother to be released once things are concluded. As for where I take her afterward, it has nothing to do with you," Qin Xiweng said coldly.
"Why be like this..." A sigh came from the other end, but it had a hint of insincerity.
"If there's nothing else, I'm hanging up," Qin Xiweng said before ending the call.
Qin Army, on the other end, heard the dial tone, and with a cold scoff, he muttered, "Hmph! I raised you, educated you, sent you to study abroad, and you think you can just discard me like that? Fat chance, you're still my son no matter what."
What exactly is the conflict between Qin Army and Qin Xiweng?
The next day.
Early in the morning, Ye Hao headed to Tianfu District with Li Yi, Zhang Hua, Xue Zhaolong, Zhuorong Town, Lu Yunsong, Ye Lang, Fei Gou, and two Saiyans.
Their purpose was obvious, they wanted to experience the Gambling King for themselves.
While in the car, Li Yi asked, "Boss, are we all going to see the Gambling King together or will you go in to meet him first?"
"Haha! All together! We're not exactly being subtle," Ye Hao laughed.
"Okay!" the group nodded, heading straight for the Gambling King's base.
They arrived at Eagle Mansion in Tianfu District, the city center, where its prosperity needs no further elaboration. With tens of thousands of wealthy people nearby, whenever they had leisure time, they came to his casino for entertainment.
Of course, his casino wasn't open on the surface, without special measures, it's impossible to enter the Gambling King's largest casino under his banner. After all, Peng City isn't Macau. Although the government turns a blind eye, if things go too far, the Peng City government would step in.
The underground parking is from the third basement to the first one, with a large shopping mall on the ground floor. The real casino isn't housed upstairs.
It resides on the fourth and fifth basements; the fourth is for self-entertainment like mahjong or Pai Gow, which aren't high-stakes. The truly high-stakes games are on the fifth floor.
Aside from Macau, the largest game-played casino in Huaxia is the Gambling King's, as at least one percent of Huaxia's wealthy gather along this coastal region in Peng City, where the stakes are very high.
The bets go up to millions, with the smallest ones at tens of thousands.
Ye Hao and his party were led by Li Yi to the fourth floor, but they didn't stop and continued down to the fifth floor.
Li Yi was familiar with the underground casino rules, so they easily proceeded, though it's not over just yet, as there was still a special code to be dealt with below.
Sure enough, when Li Yi led Ye Hao and the others to the fifth-floor gate, a person inside the lithium alloy door asked, "The Celestial King covers the Tiger."
Ye Hao chuckled inwardly, thinking that the next line of the code must be "The Pagoda suppresses the River Monster," but he was wrong.
Li Yi pointed at the speaker and cursed, "Damn your horse!"
"Scram!"
"Scram your horse!"
"Gentlemen, you're welcome. As it's daytime, the Gambling King is here for entertainment. If you have significant funds, you can choose to gamble against the King or team up with others to challenge him. Good luck." The speaker then guided Li Yi and his party to the main hall.
At this moment, Ye Hao finally understood what grandeur meant; it was perfectly demonstrated here, wasn't it?
The decorations were extravagant, high officials, and wealthy people played with their chips, some gambled cash, others used chips, with various play styles in abundance.
Even slot machines were here, albeit with high stakes, all using chips for payment.
The place was furnished with beautiful waitresses, clad in high heels and stockings, their ample chests and shapely hips made one's mouth water.
"No wonder so many people come here." Ye Hao looked around at the elegant casino environment and the attractive servers, not at all like those smoking-clad, haphazard street corner casinos.
This place appeared far more upscale, with even cigarette smoke being vented swiftly, leaving no trace.
"Hey, what should we bet on, brother?" People on the casino floor casually asked those around them, regardless of whether they were officials or tycoons.
"Bet big? After three small bets, this one should be big!" A middle-aged man said with a smile, addressing two wealthy tycoons at the innermost gambling table.
This middle-aged man was none other than Gambling King, Gambling Life. At this moment, he was entertaining a pair of wealthy players who teamed up against him. In just half an hour, he had won several million.
"Gentlemen, be bold! With all your money, there's no need to overthink, just buy whatever you fancy. After all, gambling is all about excitement!" The Gambling King laughed.
"The King is right, we came here to enjoy ourselves, naturally, we want to have fun. A million on big!" the inquiring rich man exclaimed, placing a million on a big bet.
This shows just how big the stakes are at the Gambling King's casino.
