Chapter 111 The feeling of going home (6)
"Follow, bet another 100 million, ask him to follow?" Jin Qi said lightly.

Fengjuan immediately took out a cash check from Xiaokun's bag, filled in the amount of 110 million yuan, gently put it in front of the dealer, and explained her request.

The dealer on the opposite side couldn't sit still, and the other gamblers at the table watched this sudden gamble in surprise.Jin Qi sat quietly, concentrating on looking at the two decks of cards on the table, he was afraid that the other party would cheat.As the banker has no reason to refuse the money sent by others, he nodded to the waiter at the side, and the waiter quickly sent a hill of chips in exchange for a million check.A game of $110 million to $[-] is only waiting to reveal two coincident cards.

Although the dealer knew very well that his hole card was a four of clubs, the opponent could win with any card other than four of a kind, and he would lose with any other card. He steadily revealed his hole card, looked at his opponent and said, "Sir, please open the card." .”

Jin Qi smiled and nodded at Feng Juan.Fengjuan stretched out her white and tender jade fingers to pinch the corner of the card and slowly flipped it open...all the people present exclaimed: "Nine of Hearts, it really is four nines, you won!"

The dealer's mouth was split into a "[-]" shape, his head was covered with cold sweat, his face was pale, and he was swaying and was supported by the waiter so that he did not fall down.

Fengjuan won 1103 million US dollars in one hand, and Fengjuan's nose was also sweating.Jin Qi packed up all the chips and left the gaming table, ready to cash out, but was stopped within a few steps.It was a yellow-skinned Chinese who stepped forward in a suit and said in Chinese: "My name is Liang Zhong. Are you two Chinese?"

Jin Qi nodded, and Liang Zhong continued: "Just now, I saw that Mr. Gambling is top-notch, so I wonder if you would like to take a big gamble?"

Jin Qi was a little unhappy, and he shot with both eyes, and said coldly: "Are you unhappy that I won the money?"

Liang Zhong shook his head again and again, and said, "Sir, don't get me wrong. A $200 million casino won't make things difficult for you. Because we have a VIP client with top-notch poker skills, and we want to find a friend who can gamble for a try, so we decided to Excuse me sir."

"Who is the VIP? Can't the big casino find someone to play with?" Jin Qi said with a cold face and a sharp tone.

Liang Zhong explained: "The guest of honor is Mr. Hawkins, a well-known investor on Wall Street in the United States. He comes to MGM for a big bet every quarter. He usually notifies us in advance, and the casino also finds an opponent for him in advance. This time he came suddenly. , so we were caught off guard and hope to understand."

Looking at Liang Zhong's pitiful look, Jin Qi was a little soft-hearted. He looked at Fengjuan and asked without any objection, "Does Mr. Hawkins have any special gambling rules?"

"There is a small rule, that is, in a game of ten-fold cards, the bet can be large or small. The winner must meet a condition of the loser. Of course, this condition is within the ability of the winner, and the winner must not be embarrassed." Liang Zhong spoke very clearly, without a Cantonese accent, which made people feel comfortable.Jin Qi couldn't help being curious, and nodded in agreement.

Liang Zhong was overjoyed, and led the Jin Qi couple upstairs to the VIP hall.As soon as you enter the door, you will be full of gold and jade, and the decoration is extravagant and luxurious.The scarlet Persian handmade pure velvet carpet is particularly dazzling under the radiance of the natural crystal chandelier. Ten western beauties greeted with smiles on both sides. The wine utensils in their hands can be seen to be made of pure gold.There is a long table in the center of the spacious hall, and at the other end of the table sits a man in his early fifties, with gray and black breath in his brows, and a livid face.His eyes were slightly closed melancholy, and his white and slender five fingers tapped the edge of the table quickly. A black, strange-looking ring was worn on the ring finger, shining with a gloomy light.

This man is sick.Jin Qi's first feeling when entering the door is that it is a disease of the internal organs!
Liang Zhong walked up to the man and said something softly, the man kept nodding, his eyes flashed with joy.He stood up and greeted Jin Qi, speaking a series of English.Fengjuan immediately translated, the content was roughly to introduce herself and express her respect to her Chinese friends.Jin Qi also responded politely, and the two sides exchanged greetings through the bridge of Fengjuan.Opened the champagne and the two had a toast. Hawkins said, "How much is Mr. Jin going to bet with ten cards?"

Jin Qi replied: "Just 100 million US dollars, a small gamble is pleasant."

Hawkins was a little surprised and asked, "Is $100 million just a small gamble in the eyes of Mr. King?"

Jin Qi said: "One million is not a decimal number, it is everything. Since it is too small to bet with Mr. Hawkins, I am afraid of spoiling the fun."

A sycophant made Hawkins laugh out loud, and said, "That's great, let's have another drink for the fun of it."

After toasting, they returned to their seats, the waiter brought cards for inspection, and Liang Zhong acted as the dealer.The opening three pairs is a general test. Both sides are guessing the opponent's card skills, and the win or loss is only 12 to 20.Jin Qi lost [-] in the fifth game, and he finally saw that the opponent was a thousand-game veteran.In his right sleeve there is actually another deck of cards that is exactly the same as the cards on the gaming table. Whenever the opponent's cards beat him, he can always change his hole cards without anyone noticing, completely in the blink of an eye. It worked.This was obviously cheating, and it would definitely lose if it was someone else, and Jin Qi didn't know whether to say it well or keep silent.There were victories and losses in the next few rounds, and the opponent let it go because the gold flag bets too little.The ninth golden flag lost another $[-], which made Hawkins laugh.Judging from Liang Zhong's face, he might know it too, so he took himself, an outsider, as an "onion" for fear of offending this financial tycoon.Jin Qi secretly decided to give the other party a good look!
In the tenth deck, which was the last round, Hawkins had a pair of fives and a pair of threes on the board, and the last golden flag was naturally a six of diamonds, that is to say, a small two pair.The golden flag is three fours and a ten, and the hole card is a seven of clubs.According to the three-of-a-kind card, Jin Qi wins without a doubt. He deliberately said: "It seems that Mr. Hawkins is going to lose this game. I decided to go all-in for $72. Would Mr. Hawkins dare to follow?"

"Totally agree." Hawkins pushed out 72 yuan of chips without hesitation, and said with a smile: "Does Mr. Jin agree to add another 100 million US dollars as a jackpot? The cards are up to you."

Jin Qi seemed to think for a while, and said: "I think Mr. Hawkins only has two pairs. I have no reason to be afraid. I agree to add another 100 million."

As soon as he spoke, Liang Zhong hurriedly said, "Didn't Mr. Jin say that small gambling is pleasant?"

Jin Qi glanced at him, this guy still has a bit of conscience, otherwise... just thinking to himself, I saw the muscles in Hawkins' right arm wriggling rapidly, a three of spades was miraculously picked out from the whole deck, just Sliding to the cuffs quietly, this magical technique is really not an ordinary "thousand technique".

Both parties signed a cash check of 100 million yuan, and Liang Zhong sighed secretly.He shouted: "Both sides please open the cards."

Jin Qi first turned over his hole cards, and there were only three of a kind and four on the table.Hawkins smiled and stretched out his hand to grab the hole card, and at this moment he changed the cards with a skill almost invisible to the naked eye. When he was about to put it on the table, Hawkins' face suddenly turned blue, and beads of sweat oozed from his forehead. Come out, he knows that the opponent has learned about his cheating and has taken measures to stop it.

There is a fingertip-sized hole on the Three of Diamonds between the palms. Of course, it is not on the original card, but it was created the moment the card slipped from the cuff into the palm. I clearly felt the shock wave for a moment.Hawkins was amazed by this, and didn't understand how his opponent did it, but he was sure that the process of "drawing thousands" over the years would come to an end, and he might be humiliated and punished.

He put away the cards in his hand with a dejected expression, and was about to admit defeat, when Jin Qi said first: "I hope to add another 100 million, isn't Mr. Hawkins unwilling?"

The meaning in the words is very clear, the opponent took the opportunity to ask for another 100 million, and the consequences might be embarrassing if they didn't follow suit.Hawkins sighed secretly, rolled out 100 million chips, and said softly: "I called, and I called it for the last time."

Jin Qi stood up slowly, and Hawkins gestured to Liang Zhong to admit defeat without even turning over the cards.The game ended peacefully unexpectedly, and soon the waiter gave Mr. Jin a cash check for MGM Casino, 270 million.In addition to the original winnings, there was an extra check of more than 400 million US dollars in Fengjuan's light pink Xiaokun bag.She wondered if the money came too easily.

Surprisingly, Mr. Hawkins offered to have a private conversation with Mr. King, and asked to change to a room without monitoring equipment.Liang Zhong was naturally willing to help, but he was quite surprised how he could talk about one English and one Chinese?The result of today's gamble was beyond his expectations. The master who thought he would lose 100 million won more than 300 million. He has a weird temper, and the rich and powerful master willingly admitted it.His professional instinct made him realize that there must be some mystery in it, but he didn't mind meddling in it. He opened another door for the guests and left.

This is a suite, Fengjuan took a break outside, Hawkins and Jin Qi sat facing each other by the window in the inner room, the strong aroma of coffee on the small round table in front of them was slowly rising.

Suddenly, Hawkins made a movement that Jin Qi never expected. "Pu Tom" knelt down in front of him, and said in Chinese: "Mr. Jin, help me."

"You...what are you doing?" Jin Qi took two steps back, extremely surprised, and asked, "300 million dollars won't make you bankrupt, right? Besides, if I take the money, I won't expose your tricks, Why ask me to save you?"

Hawkins shook his head again and again and said: "300 million bankrupt? No, it is definitely not bankrupt. If Mr. Jin can reach out to save me, I am willing to pay 3000 million, no! [-] million US dollars as a reward."

Hearing that Qian Jinqi's eyes lit up, wouldn't the Yankee be a fool if he made money or not.He sat down and asked, "Do you speak Chinese?"

"I know a little."

"Get up and talk slowly."

Hawkins got up slowly, but dared not sit down, so he stood beside Jin Qi and stammered an anecdote in broken Chinese.

It turned out that Hawkins' father had been doing business in the Shanghai Concession in China more than 60 years ago. He married a famous lady and even published an article in the newspaper at that time.When Hawkins was born on the eve of liberation, her mother died of dystocia. At that time, her grandfather followed her son-in-law to the United States to take care of the poor third generation.Hawkins grew up in the myths of swords and swords, such as "Seven Heroes and Five Righteousnesses" and "Shushan Swordsman", which his grandfather often told in his childhood. At the age of 16, Hawkins' father died of illness, leaving the old and the young in poverty for five years.Grandpa is old, and the 80-year-old can no longer work to support the family. Hawkins has been weak and sick since he was a child.One night, the grandfather who fell ill in bed called Hawkins to the bed and taught him some casino tricks, among which the method of controlling the arm muscles was similar to an evil skill.It is necessary to change the structure and meridians of the arm muscles under the soak of various cold and poisonous drugs... This is a very long and painful process, and there are very serious consequences.

At that time, my grandfather stroked the blond hair of Little Hawkins and said: "You choose, maybe this peculiar method can make you get the first bucket of gold in the casino, and it can open the beautiful window of your future life, but after 30 years, the peculiar way The surgery will kill you. Grandpa watched his senior brother die slowly due to the cold invasion of blood vessels and slowly shrink his menstruation. Grandpa is very worried about how you can survive with your weak and sick body. Choose, one is vigorous To live 30 years and die in agony; another to live in poverty, and perhaps die a dull old age."
