This loud shout attracted the attention of the surrounding people, and they all looked towards him.
Seeing that he was dressed luxuriously, had an extraordinary temperament, and had a beautiful girl by his side, they all felt that he was some rich young master who came here to have fun.
“Which family’s hothead is this? He really dares to bet leopard.”
“20,000 right off the bat, and, gee, there’s only 40,000 or 50,000 in total for the whole table.”
“Pfft, if he goes back at night, I’m afraid he’ll be spanked by his old man.”
The servant who opened the cup could not help but take a second look at Fang Yuan, his eyes filled with disdain, and then he shouted, “Buy away, buy away, open!”
The heavy colored cup was raised.
In the midst of a white glow, the three dice were exuding very bright colors.
“Three sixes, leopard…”
It was a kill, but the boy was not excited at all.
Any other time, a kill would have been a sure-fire gain.
But this one just happened to have a hothead bet 20,000 on it!
20,000 times 10, that’s 200,000!
Even if the other idlers had lost 50,000 to 60,000, the attendant would still have to pay more than 100,000 for this round!
The attendant almost fainted because of this number.
For example, in order to make money, the casino hired people who had a certain level of skill to open the cup. Moreover, they limited the amount of loss per table.
If they lost to a certain extent, the person who opened the cup would be replaced.
As for the punishment that would follow, only the casino would know.
“He really got a leopard...”
“Fuck, this kid is awesome.”
“Fuck! They say that new bets must be won and old bets must be lost. I should have followed him!”
Some people were shocked, while others felt regretful.
Under the impact of this round of 200,000 primeval stones, they had even forgotten quite a bit of the anger they felt when they lost money.
Fang Yuan also pretended to be pleasantly surprised. He patted his chest and said, “Come, those who witnessed it will get a share. All those who bet on this round will be rewarded with 2,000 primeval stones!”
“Great!”
More than ten people could not help but cheer in unison.
“Young man, you are young and promising!”
“This brother has a magnificent bearing. He is talented. He will definitely become a great man in the future!”
Having benefited from this, they were naturally not be stingy with their praise.
At this time, the steward also walked to the table and glared at the person who opened the cup with an unfriendly gaze.
“Look at what you’ve done!”
“Steward, I...”
“I’ll look forward to how you’re going to compensate me!”
Fang Yuan interrupted, “You are the steward, right?”
The steward immediately smiled and greeted him, “Not bad, young master is too polite.”
“I wonder, about those primeval stones…” Fang Yuan was only halfway through his sentence, wanting the other party to give him an explanation.
The manager knew that this person was not easy to deal with the moment he heard this, so he smiled embarrassedly, “I’m sorry, young master, you have won... a little too much this time. This table does not have enough to compensate. Why don’t I give you a portion first, and let me make up the rest, and return it when you are done playing?”
Fang Yuan heard this and could not help but sneer in his heart. If he did not use the True Sight Gu’s ability, if he continued playing, would he still be able to earn?
The casino was like this. If he gambled for too long, he would definitely lose!
Before he could speak, someone beside him immediately asked, “The huge Changle Square can’t even take out 200,000 primeval stones? If this table does not have money, you can take it from another table.”
“That’s right.”
Another person replied: “I think your Changle Square does not want to pay this sum of money, right?”
The one who spoke was someone who Fang Yuan was going to give 2,000 primeval stones to.
It was related to their personal interests, so they naturally had to help Fang Yuan.
This was also a result that Fang Yuan had planned long ago.
If he didn’t do this, there was absolutely no way he would be able to get away with just one win.
The voices from the side became louder and louder.
Even the people from a few tables not far away were attracted and looked over.
“This...”
The manager knew that if he didn’t give the money today, he wouldn’t get away with it. In order to avoid affecting the business of the Changle Workshop, he could only nod his head heavily. “Alright, young master, please wait for a moment. I’ll be right back.”
In the end, he only left for half an hour.
The people at the table were all impatient.
“Could it be that the old bastard has run away?”
“That dog, when he was receiving money, he was faster than anyone else. When he should be giving the money, this is how he is.”
“Fuck, I will never come to the Changle Square again. What a lousy place!”
Fang Yuan was not in a hurry. He saw the steward coming down the stairs from the corner of his eye and said with a smile, “The Changle Square is not so despicable. I guess that steward can’t handle so much compensation, so he went to ask for instructions.”
“Young master is righteous.”
The steward wiped the sweat from his forehead while taking out eleven small bags the size of a palm.
“These are the primeval stones that I will compensate you with. Including the capital, there is a total of 220,000 primeval stones. Please take a look, young master.”
“There’s no need.”
Fang Yuan put them into his storage space, leaving only two bags outside. “This is the bonus that I promised you. Share it among yourselves. Take the rest and drink some wine.”
Everyone cheered again.
The steward seemed to have realized something, but Fang Yuan had no intention to stay any longer. He directly left with Xu Zhiyu.
“Over three hundred thousand, I wonder if it is enough,” Fang Yuan muttered.
The auction was a money-sucking pit, it was not impossible for an item to be sold at a price several times higher than the market price.
If he wanted to get that gold quality Gu worm, he had to have as many primeval stones as possible.
Following that, Fang Yuan found a place to exchange the cultivation resources that the Xu clan had given him for primeval stones. The price was slightly lower than he had imagined.
In total, he had only a little over 340,000 primeval stones.
After all, it was a quick sale, so it was natural for the price to be low.
It was just that this time, the auction price was even lower than he had expected.
“Miss Xu, do you know where there are people who play stone gambling in Fanshu City?”
Fang Yuan thought for a while, and this was the only thing that could make him money almost as fast as gambling.
If he was lucky, he might be able to double his fortune.
Xu Zhiyu quickly gave an answer.
“There is an old shop in the north of the city that has been in the business of stone gambling for many years. I heard that there were two Gold quality Gu worms. Brother Fang, do you want to try your luck?”
“Yes.”
Xu Zhiyu looked at his face and suddenly asked, “Big Brother Fang, are you short of money?”
“Yes.”
Fang Yuan looked at her. “I plan to bid for that Gu worm at the auction, but I don’t have enough primeval stones.”
Xu Zhiyu blushed under his gaze. She quickly lowered her head and kicked away the stone at the side, and she said softly, “Actually, if Big Brother Fang is in need of money, you can tell me. But gold quality Gu worms have always been sold for more than a million, and although I don’t have that much...”
“How can I take your money?”
Fang Yuan smiled, and he began to think again.
A million primeval stones....
