"Genius?" The middle-aged man was stunned when he heard Wang Fan's words.
"This man's understanding of business is unmatched! This is the first time I've heard a young man say such a thing. It's a pity that I can't take it for myself. What a pity."
Wang Fan talked to himself, but his voice was not very low, and the middle-aged man could hear it all. The two men in white clothes appeared in his mind, and he wondered, who is the city lord talking about
Suddenly, the middle-aged man remembered the city lord's last move when he left. He had bowed and said goodbye to one of the two people. He thought it must be this person. He couldn't help but smile and bowed, saying, "Since this is the person the city lord likes, I will definitely find a way to make him follow you willingly."
"Oh? Do you have any good ideas?" Wang Fan immediately became interested. To be honest, he felt a little unwilling that he couldn't get the young man.
"It's actually very simple." The middle-aged man smiled slightly, leaned over and whispered a few words. Wang Fan frowned and said, "Will this method work?"
"Don't worry! Just let him have a taste of the sweetness and see the future and benefits of the Eternal Casino, and then you can tempt him. It will definitely be as you wish." The middle-aged man patted his chest and said.
"Okay, I'll leave this matter to you, but you must remember, everything should be done in moderation. In addition, except for the first to third cities, the odds of other cities will all increase tenfold." Wang Fan nodded, explained a few words, and disappeared into the back hall without any warning.
"ten times?"
The middle-aged man was stunned and said with a wry smile: "The increase is so high. If the people from these cities win, our Eternal Casino will lose a lot of money."
"But I don't think anyone would place a big bet. After all, the people from these three low-level cities and three medium-level cities have basically never won." The middle-aged man muttered, pondered for a moment, and shouted, "Come here!"
"Manager Su, do you have any instructions?" As soon as the words fell, a waiter walked into the back hall and asked respectfully.
"Go change the odds."
…
Wang Fan is usually very low-key and seldom shows up in front of the world. Except for the people in the City Lord's Mansion, basically no one knows his true identity. So when Wang Fan appeared in the Eternal Casino, there was no reaction except for the casino's clerks. They all gathered at the central gambling table, considering who to bet on to win.
Cang Zheng and Wu Tian were naturally among them.
In the center of the crowd, there was a large round table with a wooden sign on it. The names of the nine cities were written on the top of the sign, and the odds of the nine cities were written on the bottom.
"The odds for the Ninth City are only 300 to 1, and the odds for the Eighth City are only 200 to 1. Isn't that a bit too low? If I bet on myself to win, I won't make much profit." Cang Zheng frowned and muttered.
"It's true that there is no profit." Wutan nodded, and then he didn't want to look at it any longer, so he prepared to leave. At this moment, a shouting voice rang out, which made the two of them stunned and then looked in confusion.
"Everyone, please make way for a moment. Manager Su has given instructions that the odds need to be revised so that everyone can make a profit."
A waiter came up quickly holding a wooden sign, took down the original wooden sign on the gambling table, put the sign in his hand on it, smiled at everyone, and left.
The wooden sign reads as follows.
First City; odds are 10 to 1.
Second City; odds are twenty to one.
The third city; odds are thirty to one.
The fourth city; odds are 1 to 100.
Fifth City; odds are 1 to 200.
The sixth city; odds are 1 to 300.
The seventh city; odds are one to one thousand.
The eighth city; odds are one to two thousand.
The Ninth City; odds are three thousand each.
"How could this happen? The odds from the ninth city to the fourth city have increased tenfold, but why didn't the odds from the third city to the first city increase?"
"You're an idiot! Can the people sent by these three cities lose? If the odds go up again, Eternal Bank will lose a lot of money. Do you think they are that stupid?"
"That's true. Over the years, the top three places have basically been taken by people from these three cities. I believe this year will be no exception."
As soon as the wooden sign was put up, the crowd began to talk, but the discussion soon ended as everyone was struggling over which city to buy.
Although the odds from the first city to the third city are low, it is very safe and risk-free, and it can be said that you will win 100%.
Although the odds for the fourth to sixth cities are high, the risks are also not small. There have been people who were lucky enough to win the championship in these three cities in previous years, but there are only a few of them, so it is not very safe.
As for the odds of the seventh to ninth cities, although they were frighteningly high, no one took a second look at them.
You know, for countless years, the people of these three cities have never won. Buying them is like throwing your essence into the lake, never to be recovered
"Everyone, there are still five hours before the registration time, you can place your bets now." A waiter next to the round table reminded with a smile.
"I bought 50,000 essences from the First City. Although the odds are low, I can make a profit."
"Since it's a guaranteed profit, 50,000 is too little. I'll buy 500,000 essences, and in a few days I'll be able to get 5 million. It's really a good deal, haha!"
"The first city may not win, so I'd better buy the second city for 100,000!"
"I bought the third city for 100,000..."
…
Everyone placed their bets at once, and mustard bags were thrown onto the round table. The casino clerk was all smiles and had no time to count the bets.
However, the bets are basically placed on the first city, the second city, the third city, and the fourth to the ninth city are basically ignored.
"Ten to one, three thousand to one." Cang Zheng and Wutan were speechless when they saw the odds on the wooden sign. The odds between the lower-class city and the upper-class city differed by a thousand times. This was really a huge gap!
"Wutian, should I buy you or myself?" Cang Zheng was very depressed. He really wanted to buy himself, but he was not sure that he could defeat Wutan.
"Forget it, I'll buy you with one million essence! You can't lose." After thinking for a while, Cang Zheng finally decided to buy Wu Tian to win based on the principle of a businessman. Just when he was about to take out the essence, a voice sounded in his ears.
"Two little brothers, have you decided who you want to buy?"
The two looked and saw the middle-aged man in fancy clothes whom they had met at the door before walking out of the back hall, greeting the people around him enthusiastically while walking towards them.
The middle-aged man stepped forward, looked at Wu Tian and the other man, and said with a cupped hand, "I am the manager of Yongheng Casino, Su He."
"Hello, Manager Su." Cang Zheng greeted him politely, while Wutan just smiled.
Su He nodded and said with a smile: "If you two brothers can't decide who to buy, if you don't mind, Su can give you some suggestions."
"Then I'll have to trouble Manager Su to give me some advice." Cang Zheng said with a smile.
"I dare not give you any advice, but for Manager Wang's sake, I can reveal some inside information to you." Su He said in a low voice with a smile.
"Any inside information?" Cang Zheng suddenly became interested and said, "I'd like to hear more details."
"According to the information I received, except for the seventh to ninth cities, most of the people participating in the Shadow Guard election this time have come well prepared. I heard that many of them have reached the minor success stage, and some have invincible combat power in the minor success stage. They are all remarkable figures, but compared with the little devil of the first city, the gap is not a little bit."
"Oh? The little devil is very powerful?" Cang Zheng asked puzzledly.
"Speaking of the Little Devil, perhaps few people know him, but all the city lords and deputy city lords of the Nine Cities know his reputation. Even the Shadow Guard Commander has a new respect for him."
Su He's face was full of admiration, and he said that the little devil was the city lord's most proud disciple, who reached the Tuomai stage at the age of twenty, the Baichao stage at the age of one hundred, the Shenbian initial stage at the age of three hundred, the Minor Success stage at the age of one thousand, and then he was in seclusion for five hundred years. His current cultivation level has reached the peak of the Minor Success stage. In terms of combat power, he can fight against the strong men in the Great Success stage and remain undefeated!
"So strong?"
Cang Zheng was surprised, but in fact he was extremely disdainful. Not to mention Wutan, just take himself for example. It has been only more than a hundred years since he was born, and his cultivation has already reached the initial stage. As long as he is given a thousand years, no, as long as he is given five hundred years, he will be confident that he can easily surpass the so-called little devil king.
"Of course. The city lord has spent a lot of effort to train him just for today. If you two little brothers haven't made up your mind yet, you might as well buy him. I guarantee that you will make a profit." Su He vowed.
"Haha! Manager Su, the casino relies entirely on luck. I dare not place a bet casually. I have to continue to think about it seriously." Cang Zheng smiled slightly.
Hearing this, Su He's expression suddenly turned ugly, partly because of Cang Zheng's refusal, and more because he had miscalculated.
This was the strategy he had proposed to the city lord before. Tell this person the inside information and let him make a steady profit. After the other party sees the benefits of the Eternal Casino, he might be tempted, and then he could use a large price to lure this person in.
But he didn't expect that the other party would not buy it, and even after talking till his mouth was dry, he still wanted to continue considering it.
Cang Zheng naturally saw Su He's expression and couldn't help but laugh in his heart. What a crappy little devil. He could not be compared with Wutan, the pervert.
In fact, Cang Zheng had already known about the little devil that Su He mentioned on the list, but he didn't take it to heart at all, because there was a guy next to him who was more terrifying than the real devil.
However, there was one thing that made him very curious. On the list he got from the man in purple, those who participated in the Shadow Guard election from the First City and the Sixth City were all recorded, but those from the Seventh City to the Ninth City were not.
After thinking for a while, Cang Zheng came forward and whispered, "Boss Su, be a good person to the end. Why don't you lend me the list of candidates from Jiucheng participating in the Shadow Guard election so that I can take a look at it for reference?"
"this… "
Su He hesitated when he heard that. The list was an internal secret and only people in the City Lord's Mansion knew about it, such as the City Lord, the Deputy City Lord, the City Guard Commander and the City Guards. If it got out, he would definitely be scolded by the City Lord.
