Chapter 37 A gentleman loves money and gets it right
Chen Qiang was shocked by the sudden arrival.
Chen Qiang turned his head and saw that the person who came was not tall, had a mustache at the corner of his mouth, his eyes were not big, his face was thin, he was wearing a jacket, and a melon-shell hat on his head.
The mustache said, "Wu Youyuan, when you steal chips at the gambling table, I have seen through it. It's a pity that others called you Shanghai's new gambling king. It turned out to be just a pickpocket who steals chips. Wu Youyuan, I tell you, if you know the truth, you will give me a thousand oceans, otherwise I will tell you what you steal chips..."
The man was talking, but his words suddenly stopped because he saw Wu Youyuan stuffing chips into Chen Qiang's hands.
"Haha, it turns out that this little brother is also a fellow fellow. Do you also see that Wu Youyuan is stealing chips? Are you not greedy, just 100 oceans? Let me tell you, if you want to lose, Wu Youyuan will win at least a thousand oceans in this casino every day!" Xiaowang continued.
Chen Qiang knew that this mustache had misunderstood him.
Wu Youyuan on the opposite side was not in a hurry. A kind smile appeared on his face, made a gesture of invitation, and said, "Is it a thousand oceans? It's easy to say, sir, let's talk about it in detail."
Wu Youyuan led the mustache aside. After a few words, the mustache showed joy on her face and nodded frequently. Then the mustache left with great pride.
Wu Youyuan walked to Chen Qiang again.
"Little brother, you must have heard of it just now, and you also know that I was stealing chips at the gambling table? Otherwise, as long as you are willing to keep the secret for me, I will take you to make a fortune together!" Wu Youyuan said.
"How to get rich? Go gamble?" Chen Qiang asked.
Wu Youyuan stepped closer and said in a low voice: "As long as you don't leak my chips, no matter what I win or lose, how about we share the spoils in half?"
Chen Qiang looked at Wu Youyuan coldly and shook his head: "No need!"
Wu Youyuan continued to advise: "Little brother, you may not know me. It was not long before I came to Shanghai, and I made the title of "Gambling King". It is not an exaggeration to say that my gambling skills are the number one in Shanghai. In the future, as long as I win money, I will give you half of it. This is a business that will make sure to make a profit and never lose money!"
"No!" Chen Qiang refused immediately.
"Why? Don't even give you money for free! Don't just show your praise!" Wu Youyuan put on an angry expression.
"You ask me why? Haha." Chen Qiang laughed dryly and said, "Didn't you just say that no matter what you win or lose, you can share the spoils in half. That is to say, if you lose, I have to bear half of the loss for you, right?"
"So you are worried about this. It doesn't matter if you don't trust my gambling skills, but you need to understand that if you lose the bet, won't I have to lose half of my capital? I will lose money myself too! You don't have to worry about me losing money at all. For us to make money, I will definitely try my best to win money!" Wu Youyuan said confidently.
"You said that little beard I came just now, right? As long as he doesn't tell you about stealing chips, you will share the money with him in half, no matter what the winner or lose." Chen Qiang said this, with a disdainful smile on his face, and he continued:
"You said that you are the king of gambling and your gambling skills are the top in Shanghai. Why do you have to use the inferior method of stealing chips? You can completely rely on gambling to win money! Besides, with your method, if you really steal chips, it will be so easy for others to discover? I guess you deliberately let the little beard see the matter of stealing chips."
After hearing Chen Qiang's words, Wu Youyuan's expression became serious, and he asked, "What else do you guess?"
"I also guessed that your words "no matter how good the winner is, the loser is, and the spoils are divided," Chen Qiang replied with a smile.
At this moment, Wu Youyuan's face changed drastically!
...
Chen Qiang did not guess Wu Youyuan's method of making Qian, but saw it in the manuscript in later generations.
Wu Youyuan's gambling skills are really clever, but his methods of giving away thousands are different from those of ordinary people.
Most people cheat on the gambling table, but Wu Youyuan cheated on the tricks to steal chips.
Wu Youyuan's chips are piled up differently from others' chips. Others are piled up neatly, while in front of him there are chips piled up in a mess, so that they can be thrown directly on the chips pile after stealing them, without attracting attention.
With Wu Youyuan's skills, others will definitely not be able to see him stealing chips unless he wants others to see it.
So, when Wu Youyuan deliberately exposed his mistakes, some people saw the clues. But these people who saw the clues would never expose Wu Youyuan. There is no benefit in exposing him, and they can't make a penny. Instead, it's better to use the matter of stealing chips to threaten Wu Youyuan privately and blackmail money.
For example, the beard just now had to open a thousand oceans, and he misunderstood that Chen Qiang was also here to blackmail Wu Youyuan. Moreover, the beard also misunderstood that Chen Qiang was also here to blackmail Wu Youyuan, so he said the words of "a fellow man".
When encountering these extortionists, Wu Youyuan will not pay the hush money. He will agree with the other party that as long as the other party keeps the secret, when gambling in the future, no matter how you win or lose, you will share the spoils with the other party.
After all, Wu Youyuan is the big gambling king and can win hundreds or even thousands of oceans every day. Those who come to blackmail Wu Youyuan are gamblers, and they can't resist such temptation at all, so they agree to Wu Youyuan.
According to this rule, if Wu Youyuan wins 10,000 yuan, then he and the blackmailer each get 5,000 yuan; and if Wu Youyuan loses 10,000 yuan, then Wu Youyuan and the blackmailer each get 5,000 yuan.
Stealing chips is actually a trick that Wu Youyuan deliberately leads people to take the bait. There will definitely be no one who sees the clues. As time goes by, more and more gamblers will take the bait. Wu Youyuan will agree with every gambler who comes to blackmail him. As long as they keep the secret, no matter whether they win or lose, both parties will share the spoils in half.
Next, it’s the moment when Wu Youyuan performs. He will win less first, so that everyone can taste the sweetness, and then start to lose less.
According to the agreement, the sharing of the spoils is regardless of the winner or lose. In other words, if Wu Youyuan loses, those people will have to bear half of the losses and repay the money to Wu Youyuan.
For example, if Wu Youyuan loses 10,000 yuan, then Wu Youyuan himself will have to pay 5,000 yuan, but if everyone has agreed with him, everyone will have to pay 5,000 yuan to Wu Youyuan. In this way, the more people have agreed with Wu Youyuan, the more Wu Youyuan will make. If he loses a game, he will lose 5,000 yuan to the casino, but he can win several 5,000 yuan from other people.
This is actually a kind of technique, which uses the gambler's greed. As long as there are enough people, this technique can make money much faster than gambling. Moreover, if you win too much in a casino, you will be in trouble by the casino. Using this technique, Wu Youyuan won not win money from the casino, but the gambler's money, so he will not offend the casino. Even after the casino discovered this technique, he would not expose Wu Youyuan.
...
Get back to the point.
When Wu Youyuan proposed to share the spoils in half, Chen Qiang realized that Wu Youyuan was pulling himself into the game and he wanted to cheat him.
So Chen Qiang's face suddenly became cold.
Chen Qiang saved Wu Youyuan's life after all, but he didn't expect that Wu Youyuan would disclose his stealing chips, and he actually cheated him in turn. It would be so unrighteous to repay such kindness to revenge!
"I'm also stupid to talk about justice to gamblers!" Chen Qiang sighed lightly, and he once again felt the cruelty of old Shanghai.
On the other hand, Wu Youyuan had already guessed that Chen Qiang had seen through his thousands of techniques.
Wu Youyuan took a deep breath and said, "I really didn't expect that my Wu Youyuan would be able to see through my Thousand Arts by you. Tell me, how much do you want?"
Chen Qiang shook his head again: "I don't want anything, I won't tell you about your affairs."
After Chen Qiang finished speaking, he threw back the 100-ocean chip to Wu Youyuan, turned around and wanted to leave.
"What do you mean?" Wu Youyuan asked.
"I don't want your money! I just pretend that you have never seen me before." Chen Qiang replied.
"Why? This is one hundred oceans. You are a coachman, and you may not be able to save up one hundred oceans in three or five years!" Wu Youyuan said.
"A gentleman loves money and gets it well! Your money is won by gambling, or it is cheated from others by using thousands of techniques. Although not many gamblers deserve it, behind these hundred oceans, I don't know how many people will sell their wives and daughters, and their families will be destroyed. The hundred oceans you gave are stained with blood. If I want it, my conscience will be uneasy!" After Chen Qiang said that, he was about to take a step to leave here.
"Wait a minute!" Wu Youyuan called Chen Qiang, and then asked, "Young man, you can see through my thousands of skills. You can say such things without extorting money from me. You are not an ordinary person, you have a habit! I, Wu Youyuan, admire you, tell me, what is your name?"
"My name is Chen Qiang." After Chen Qiang said that, he left here.
However, Wu Youyuan's eyes flashed with light.
"Chen Qiang, a very simple name, probably its real name..."
