Chapter 428 To Gamble Again

Childe Chen held Childe Li’s shoulder and asked in a surprised whisper, “You know him? What is his background? Why do they call Childe Xiang, The Guy Who Always Gives Money away?”

Childe Li seemed to remember the embarrassed look of Xiang Bolong previously, and his expression became very strange. “I don’t know what his background is like, but I know that Xiang Bolong lost lots of money in stone gambling last time.”

“Is he the guy who won lots of money from Childe Xiang at the Fantastic Stones Shop? That is quite interesting.”

Childe Chen’s eyes glinted, and then he looked at Ding Ning with interest.

Xiang Bolong got the Ice Type jade from the rock at that time, but he did not make any money. On the contrary, he lost more than ten million. This was the topic they often talked about in their circle for a long time, which left a very deep impression on them.

Childe Chen was not there at that time because he was busy. Since he had never witnessed that game in person, he had taken it to heart and was extremely curious about the lucky young man who won Xiang Bolong’s money.

“What should we do now?”

These Childes gathered together to discuss it. Apparently, this was a headache for them.

Coming out to trample on others, they would not use other ways but power, money, interpersonal relationships, and their fighting abilities. Compared with the very powerful Xiaoyao present, they knew they did not have any advantage in the first three aspects, and doing so was not in line with their current interests, either.

If they chose to fight, seeing that Ding Ning used only a single kick to make Childe Liu fly, they knew that they were not his equal in this aspect.

This was distressing. They were not sure whether they could win if they did anything, but if they admitted defeat without doing anything, they could not give Childe Liu a reasonable explanation when he woke up, and the others would laugh at them if this secret was leaked.

They stayed in the same circle, bound together for good or bad. If they did not avenge Childe Liu, they would lose face. For these people who made a living by seeking dodgy practices, saving their faces was important.

“Or perhaps, you should get up from where you fell. Childe Xiang, let’s make an appointment to compete with him on stone gambling.”

His eyes brightened as Childe Chen came up with an idea and said this.

Xiang Bolong shivered from head to foot. With fear in his eyes, he shook his head repetitively and said, “No, no, that guy is evil and mysterious. We can’t win if we compete in stone gambling.”

“I think it is a good idea. We can give Childe Liu a reasonable explanation, but we don’t have to suddenly turn hostile and damage our relationship with Sister Yao.”

Childe Li patted his thighs a few times and said excitedly, “This is called a fight-free competition, which Sister Yao taught us. In the Yan Jing circles, the methods they use are really high-end, grand, and upscale. Directly humiliating others using strong powers is tasteless.”

“Right, Bolong, you lost to him last time. Don’t you want to take revenge? We brothers will support you this time.”

“Let’s raise more money and win a lot from him to save Childe Xiang’s face loss previously.”

“That’s right. Isn’t stone gambling a way of betting on luck? I don’t believe he has X-ray Vision. Gamble with him.”

…

Everyone agreed that this was a good idea. When he thought about it, Xiang Bolong found that this seemed to be the best solution for now.

If they won, this would wash away his shame of being nicknamed The Guy Who Always Gives Money away, and he could also get his revenge; if he lost, he would only have to live a thrifty life for a few more months.

Instantly he gritted his teeth and said in a way as if to imply that he would have a heroic death, “Okay, let’s gamble with him. Now let me go and tell him our decision.”

“Wait, you tell him to go to Fantastic Stones Shop tomorrow afternoon. Let’s set a 300 million wager.”

Childe Chen said this with a sinister smile.

“Hiss!”

All the others gave a gasp of astonishment, and their complexions underwent a slight change. They often bet on stones, but they would only bet with tens of millions at most. Now, when asked to take out 300 million at a time, they were a little afraid.

Xiang Bolong’s face turned blue. He kept shaking his head and said hurriedly, “No, too much, it is hard to get so much money. Besides, if we lose…”

“You guys, don’t worry. I promise you won’t lose. Don’t forget who my elder brother has been with these days.”

Childe Chen said confidently, “If you guys don’t want to make money, let me ask my cousin to join this.”

“Do you mean Master Mo Fantastic Stones Shop who was invited from Mian Nation? Can we have the honor to ask him to help us?”

As his eyes brightened, Childe Li asked excitedly. Apparently, he had heard of the reputation of this Master Mo.

After giving a proud smile, Childe Chen said with a reserved expression, “If it is a small gamble, Master Mo won’t be willing to come, so we must have a high wager. A three billion gamble should be attractive to him. In addition, my cousin is his acquaintance. If I ask my cousin to invite him, there should not be a problem.”

“Master Mo? Who is he?”

Since Xiang Bolong had no money in his pockets during this time, he rarely came out to fool around, so he had not heard of this person. When he heard them talking, he asked curiously.

“God, you have not heard of Master Mo! He is a real master. After Fantastic Stones Shop reopened, they specially invited a stone-gambling master from Mian Nation, and the master is this man. With stone gambling, he has basically never failed. He gave a few guys some pieces of random advice, and they all won. Now, he is treated as a VIP guest by all the rich people engaged in stone gambling in Ninghai, and they are proud to be friends with him.”

Someone who knew him said this with much admiration.

“There is such a master?”

Xiang Bolong’s eyes brightened, but then he said worriedly, “But if it is like what you guys said, we will have to pay a high price to invite Master Mo, won’t we? Even if we win, we won’t get much money, right?”

“Hehe, what you don’t know is that Master Mo is a great hermit. This time he was willing to come to Ninghai because he and Nie Fan, the boss of Fantastic Stones Shop, were on good terms in the past. He came to help Nie Fan to look after his shop, do good for him, and build interpersonal relationships for him.”

Seeing that everyone cocked their ears to listen expectantly, Childe Chen immediately felt very proud and beamed with joy. “Let’s make it a 300 million gamble. If we win, Master Mo will only take 100 million, and we can still earn 200 million.”

“But what if we lose?”

Xiang Bolong asked timidly. He could not help it, because his fear of Ding Ning was quite deeply rooted in his mind.

“Impossible. Since Master Mo came to Ninghai, he has helped many people bet on stones. So far, he has not lost any game.”

Childe Chen said this resolutely and decisively.

“I mean what if. What if we lose?”

Xiang Bolong was still a little worried.

“Hehe, if we lose, we will lose 300 million. We can’t take all the profits from Master Mo. If we lose, we can’t ask him to pay for the loss, can we?”

Childe Chen gave Xiang Bolong a look of disdain. “You are afraid, aren’t you? If so, you had better not join this gamble, and I will put in more principal. In a gamble that is sure to win, no one will worry about making too much money.”

“I’m in. I’ll give 50 million.”

“Count me in. I’ll give 30 million.”

“I only have 20 million pocket money. I’ll give all of it.”

…

Everyone seemed to have heard of Master Mo and had full confidence in him. Hearing what he said, they immediately said that they would participate in the gamble.

Xiang Bolong had quite a torturous mental struggle. He also wanted to make money, although he was somewhat worried because he did not want to miss such a chance to make a comeback. If he won this time, not only would he get back the more than 10 million he had lost, but he could also win some money. By then, he would not have to live such a thrifty life that he was living now.

“But where will I get so much money from? Since this is a 100 percent win, I will have to…steal my father’s treasures and exchange them for some money. When we win, I will redeem them immediately.”

Thinking of this, he instantly gritted his teeth. “Okay, count me in. I will give 50 million.”

“That’s the right attitude. This time we will win so much from that guy and avenge you and Childe Liu.”

Childe Chen gave a smile, patted Xiang Bolong’s shoulder, and said quite heroically, “We brothers have never feared anyone. Let’s get up from where we fell.”

“Count me in too. I will give a 100 million principal.”

No one knew when Childe Liu woke up, but after Huang Ling explained everything to him, he also came over and gritting his teeth, said.

Ding Ning’s kick looked terrifying, but it was a kick designed to make him pass out only. After waking up, he had no injuries.

Thus, he became angry with Ding Ning, but was also afraid of him. After he heard how they would take revenge, he agreed to join them immediately.

“Childe Liu, isn’t 100 million too much? We have so many people. It’s sufficient when each one gives tens of millions, and we don’t need to have such high stakes, surely?”

Someone was worried and gave him this advice. After all, they knew the amount of wealth Childe Liu possessed. 100 million was the maximum amount he could afford.

“It’s okay. I have confidence in Master Mo.”

Apparently, Childe Liu had heard of Master Mo, so he gritted his teeth with determination.

Ding Ning had very sharp ears. Although they were far away from him and their voices were not loud, he still heard them clearly.

He had an inexplicable expression on his face and thought joyfully, “Xiang Bolong is indeed The Guy Who Always Gives Money away! He seems to know that I am short of money and then can’t wait to organize a team to bring me money.”

In the last auction, he earned 2.4 billion after selling a jade carving. Then, he spent one billion building the Green Field Villa for Cheng Hu and his colleagues; at the auction, he also spent one billion buying the Yan Dragon Tripod. Apart from that, he also had all kinds of other expenses. Therefore, now he only had 200 to 300 million pocket money left.

Due to this reason, Xiang Bolong became more and more pleasing to his eye. He rubbed his chin and snickered, thinking, “Do I need to give the nickname The Guy Who Always Gives Money Away to Childe Chen, instead?”

As for that so-called Master Mo, he did not take him seriously because this man was only a charlatan. With Absolute Touch the powerful ability, he was in an invincible position, not afraid to gamble with anyone.

Therefore, when Xiang Bolong and others came up enthusiastically with the idea that they should go to Fantastic Stones Shop to play at stone-gambling with 300 million being the wager the following afternoon, he agreed without hesitation. Only idiots would refuse to make money.

“That’s a deal. See you tomorrow afternoon.”

Childe Liu waved his hand tolerantly and said goodbye to Xiaoyao before they left nosily.

“Lao Liu, you should not have agreed. That’s 300 million. I don’t have so much money. What should we do now?”

Fan Kun was so anxious that he nearly cried. Without him, Ding Ning would not have come across all these trouble.

“Right, Lao Liu, you should not have agreed. I’ve heard of that Master Mo, who is excellent at stone gambling. He has only been in Ninghai for more than half a month, but he has succeeded seven times and only failed once.”

Zhao Xin furrowed his brows tightly. Obviously, he had heard of Master Mo, but he still felt worried for Ding Ning.

“Why are you so worried? Anyway, they do not have Lao Liu’s contact information. Lao Liu is just using this stalling tactic. At most, he will have to avoid meeting them later.”

Solemn said this in an indifferent tone.

“Only Lao Wu knows what I am like. That’s what I’m going to do.”

Ding Ning did not know how to explain it to them, so he spoke in the same tone that Solemn used.

“Ah, why not say it earlier? I was so worried.”

“Lao Liu, you are really smart. After tonight, it won’t be so easy for them to find us.”

“Lao Liu, good job. It’s all right that you cheated them and made them leave. These members of the second-rich generation just have nothing to do. A 300 million wager? Did they even think that they could get 300 million if they sell us?”

…

Fan Kun and others believed it. Instantly, they heaved long sighs of relief and said joyfully.

Only Zhao Xin glanced silently at Ding Ning, but did not say anything to him. He knew Ding Ning so well and believed that he would never have cold feet.

Solemn’s family was not poor, but he had no idea about the power of these members of the second-rich generation. If they wanted to look for someone in Ninghai, that would not be as hard as he thought.

“Since Ding Ning agreed, he must already have a plan, but where will he get the 300 million principal from?”

Although he knew that Ding Ning had been in the limelight recently, he did not think he had 300 million. If someone said Ding Ning had 300,000, he would believe it, and even having three million was possible, but it was impossible for him to have 300 million. Even for him, the young master of the Zhao Family, he could only come up with ten million at most.
