Thriller Paradise Chapter 933

Chapter 934

The Royal gambling house was founded at the end of the Qing Dynasty. At first, it was just a small gambling house on the street. The name was not ‘Emperor gambling house’, but ‘gambling house’.

It was said that the owner of the gambling house was a monk who had returned to the secular world. No one knew where he had learned his superb gambling skills. After returning to the secular world, he had started to do this business that destroyed people’s families.

To this day, the name of this boss monk was no longer known. In any case, people directly called him “monk” back then, and now they called him “gambling monk” or “old ancestor.”

Perhaps it was because he had been a monk for a long time, even if the boss of the gambling house was doing this illegal business, he didn’t forget to follow the rules of a monk.

In the monk’s gambling den, everything had to be “absolutely fair.” If anyone cheated or worked together to cheat others of their money in his place, the boss would definitely see through it and expose them in public. The lightest punishment was to be chased out of the gambling den and never received, and the heaviest punishment was to be beaten half to death and thrown on the streets.

The gamblers had a very subtle mentality. Most of them could not afford to lose, but they were unwilling to admit that they could not afford to lose, so they lost even more.

As for the gambling house … It gave them a place where they could “accept their loss”. Those who came out from there, even if they lost to the point of being penniless, could only blame their own bad luck and had nothing to say.

For gamblers, that was enough … It was as if they were not the ones who lost, but God.

Over time, the name of the ‘gambling house’ spread.

Finally, one day, the name of the gambling house reached the ears of a local official. This person was also a gambler. The next day, he disguised himself and entered the gambling house.

Unfortunately … This Lord Liu’s gambling skills and luck were not good. Not long after he entered the gambling house, he lost all his money.

It was reasonable to say that a corrupt official like him, who was well-known for his crimes, would not care if he lost. In any case, he had plundered the People’s wealth, so he could just leave after losing everything … However, this Lord Liu’s gambling character was also very bad. After he lost, he immediately revealed his identity and made a loud noise, saying that the dealer cheated him of his money.

Therefore, the shop assistant called the boss … The monk. After listening to what had happened, the monk smiled calmly and suggested another round of gambling with Lord Liu.

In this round, he had used all his fortune to bet on a single word from Lord Liu.

If the monk lost, he would lose his wealth. If Lord Liu lost, he would only lose one sentence, and that sentence was “I, Liu, am sincerely convinced of my defeat today.”

Lord Liu agreed to this bet and quickly lost.

But…He didn’t fulfill his promise. He just waved his sleeve, snorted coldly, and left the gambling house.

How could he have known … That his departure would cost him his life?

On the night of the second day, this Lord Liu suddenly died in his own home. His death was miserable and the cause of his death was unknown.

Although the death of a local official was not a small case … At that time, it happened to be the fiercest period of the group of Heavenly Peace. Coupled with the corruption of the court, there were internal and external troubles, so the court had no time to investigate the matter. When the local law enforcement agency’s investigation was fruitless, the matter was left unsettled …

It was just that … Although the officials did not investigate further, the rumors about this matter among the people became more and more intense.

In less than half a year, the story of “the gambling monk killed liu tan” had spread in the two provinces of Jiangsu and Zhejiang. Everyone’s version would add oil to the fire, and the more they spoke, the more mysterious it became.

The name “gambling house” also spread along with the story, which made the business of the gambling house develop rapidly, and it soon turned from a small casino to a big casino.

Not long after, many gambling Masters came to challenge the gambling monk, but no one could defeat him. Moreover, after these people lost, they were all convinced by the monk’s gambling skills and bearing, and they either became bosom friends or apprenticed to him … As for the stories of these gambling fights, they naturally became legends that spread in the streets and alleys.

Later on, a chance encounter changed the fate of the gambling house …

At that time, there was a conflict between the bosses of the other two casinos. They wanted to compete with each other by gambling, but neither of them believed the people appointed by the other party, so the gambling could not start. In the end … It was unknown who said,”then why don’t we invite the monks of the gambling house to host it for you?”

In the end … They really went to invite him, and the monk really went. Due to his principle of “absolute fairness”, the entire process of the bet was carried out without a single leak. After the bet was over, the losing party did not say anything else. They handed over the money and left …

In this way, it was the first time that the gambling house hosted the gambling for others …

Since then, more and more people came to the gambling house to make fair bets, and the monk was undoubtedly too busy to handle all of them alone. Therefore, the Masters he knew and recruited also came out in the name of the “gambling house” to host the bets.

In 1920, when the monk died of old age, the gambling house was no longer a casino. Instead, it became an organization dedicated to hosting gambling games and drawing commissions from them.

The second-generation boss named the undefeated “gambling monk” as his ancestor and changed the name of the gambling house to “gambling king’s house”, meaning that the monk was the king of gambling.

Time passed quickly. In the 1930s and 1940s, the rental industry in S city was full of gangs.

At this time, it was the peak of the gambling king’s house. The people they served were rarely commoners … During that period, those who could invite the “gambling king’s house” to host the gamble were at least big shots in the pugilistic world, celebrities in society, or important people in the military and government.

And the content of the bet was usually a huge amount of property, or … Life.

This was what gambling was all about. As a person lost more and more chips, his life would become less and less important in his heart.

At this time, things like “credibility” would become laughable. It was as if … A gang leader who had more than ten brothers with him gambled with a defenseless commoner. As long as the latter won a sum of money that the former could not accept, then what awaited him would definitely be him breaking his promise and being silenced.

The existence of the Emperor gambling house was to monitor and prevent such a situation from happening. As long as the people in the gambling king’s house witnessed it, the loser had to pay the price of his bet … No matter what the price was.

If the loser broke the contract, the people from the gambling house would be responsible for collecting the other party’s chips for the winner. Whether it was money or life, no matter who the person was, or what he had lost … The Royal gambling house had a way to make him pay what he should pay, and there were no exceptions.

This was also the principle that everyone who knew about the existence of the Imperial gambling house had to understand.

…………

A century later, in the office of a well-known entrepreneur in S city.

“You … Actually know about the Imperial gambling house?” Jiang daode asked in a deep voice.

He didn’t mean to play dumb, because he knew that the other party wouldn’t have said those three words out of thin air. What Jiang daode wanted to know was … How did the kid on the other end of the video know that he had a connection with the gambling king’s house, and how many details did he know?

“That’s because …” Feng bujue smiled.”I’m also a member of the Royal gambling house.”

“What … Did you say?” A shocked expression appeared on Jiang daode’s face.

“Is this strange?” Feng bujue asked.

“You?” Jiang daode immediately sneered.”Hmph … You?” He paused for half a second.”Do you know how much a membership in the ‘Royal gambling house’ is valued on the black market?”

“About 30 million RMB.” Feng bujue replied calmly,”however … This kind of valuation is not very useful because their member count is already full and they are no longer selling to the public. And existing members can’t sell or transfer their membership in private. ” He stretched lazily in front of the camera.”Of course … You can use your membership as a bet in the presence of the ‘gambling supervisor’… And bet with others. As long as the gambling supervisor approves of the bet, there may be a situation where the bet is transferred.”

“It seems that you are really familiar with the rules of the Royal gambling house …” Jiang daode suddenly thought of something. He was immediately surprised.”Wait … Are you …”

“That’s right, my membership is ‘won’,” Feng bujue spread his hands and continued,”hehe … Now that I think about it … I feel sorry for the guy whose membership I took away because I have not exercised my rights as a member even once in all these years.”

After that, Feng bujue paused for two seconds before adding,””Oh, by the way, I can also tell you another question in your mind …” He continued leisurely,”you must be thinking, even if I’m really a member of the Royal gambling house, members may not know each other, so how did I know your identity?”

Jiang daode did not say anything. He just looked at the screen silently, waiting for brother Jue’s answer.

“Hehe … Actually, that was an unexpected gain.” “When I was investigating your private life and personal history, I accidentally found out that you are related to a case of a missing person from twenty years ago … So, I found a few sources that I was close to (Bao Qing) to retrieve some information from that time, and I managed to come up with a rough idea of what happened …” He tilted his head and pointed at Jiang daode through the video screen.”You are not Jiang daode at all.”

The moment he said this, Jiang daode felt as if a pot of hot oil had been poured on his head. He jumped up in shock.

“If I’m not wrong …” Feng bujue continued,”back then, the real Jiang daode had a bet with you and lost ‘everything’.”

“You … What the hell …” This “Jiang daode” was completely surrounded by fear. The huge psychological pressure made him stammer.

“After the bet, the Royal gambling house disposed of Jiang daode’s body and arranged a secret plastic surgery for you. A year later, they arranged another car accident to kill Jiang daode’s parents in Korea. In this way, you will obtain his identity, education, appearance, inheritance … In short, his entire life. ” Feng bujue was still going on.”And you … Became a ‘missing person’, am I right? Feng …”

“Enough!” This ‘Jiang daode’ before him did not allow Feng bujue to reveal his original name. He quickly shouted,”you …” He glared at brother Jue and then pointed at Ouyang RUO.”…And you! You’d better figure out who you’re dealing with!”

“Hmph … Is it this meaningless threat again? How? Do you want to kill me?” Feng bujue said,”with all due respect, I don’t think you have the courage and ability to use violence. If you want to use other methods, then feel free to do so. “I’d like to see … If you fight with me, will you die first or will I die first, hehehehe …” At the end of his sentence, a chilling smile appeared on his face.

“You …” Jiang daode sat back in the boss’s chair. His whole body trembled as he stared at the screen and asked,”…What do you want?”

“I told you … I’m just playing a game with you.” “I’ve already called for the ‘gambling watcher’,” Feng bujue said.”Once he’s here, we’ll start.”

“Dong Dong Dong!”

Speaking of the devil, before he finished his sentence, there was a knock on the door of the director’s office.

“I’ll do it. ” As Ouyang RUO spoke, she stood up from her chair and walked to the door.

Jiang daode didn’t have the mood to care about this at this time. A series of sudden mental attacks had messed up his mind.

Bang Bang Bang

After the person entered the room, Ouyang RUO closed the door.

The newcomer was a man in a light-colored Tang suit. He looked to be in his thirties, with short, shiny hair combed back, and a pair of cloth shoes without socks.

“Hello, Mr. Jiang. We meet again. ” As soon as he entered the room, he went straight to the desk and greeted “Jiang daode.”

“How did you …” Jiang daode wanted to ask the security guard on the first floor how he had been allowed to come up when he saw his appearance, but halfway through his sentence, he felt that it was unnecessary.”…Forget it. Just pretend I didn’t say anything.” He paused for a moment.”Hello, kujyo-san …”

Obviously, it was not the first time that the gambling supervisor, Hui jiutiao, had hosted a gambling game that Mr. Jiang daode had participated in.

“I’m really honored …” Kujyo said, turning his eyes to the suitcase on the table and looking at the screen.”Mr. Feng, the member who never asked for our service, has actually contacted the gambling supervisor today and made it clear that …’Please choose a gambling supervisor who is more familiar with Mr. Jiang’.”

Hearing that, Jiang daode could not help but look at brother Jue again. The creepy smile on this kid’s face was getting scarier the more he looked at it …

“I just feel that it’s easier to find a gambling supervisor he knows, in case he suspects that I found a friend to impersonate someone from the Imperial gambling house.” “Alright, Mr. Kujyo, I don’t have much time,” Feng bujue said.”Since you’re here, how about I start to talk about the rules?”

“Hold on!” Jiang daode immediately shouted and interrupted,”how can we start the bet without you?”

“Ha … What’s wrong with that?” Feng bujue shrugged and smiled.”As long as my ‘absence’ does not affect the rules or the content of the bet in my favor, why not?”

“He’s right. ” Kujyo continued,”there’s no rule that states that both parties must face each other to start the bet. We often encounter long-distance gambling situations. If there’s a loophole in the rules that he can take advantage of, I won’t let the bet start.”

Jiang daode hesitated for a few seconds before he said,””Okay … Let’s put the rules aside. Tell me … What do you want to bet with me?” he asked. (To be continued.)
