Chapter 232 How Stupid Are You...

"Lord Viscount, long time no see, good evening!"

"Oh, it's Chief Felik. I heard that your business group has recently opened up another trade route. I'm very happy to congratulate you!"

"Thank you, sir! Well, sir, if you are interested in this, I just have a batch of goods about to go, why don't you also get some?"

"Haha, then I took advantage this time. Please, let's go over there and talk in detail."

"Don't dare, please!"

… As time goes by, the number of people entering the hall gradually decreases. At this time, the big shots in Hanshui City began to appear one after another.

After all, Bran is an empire with the aristocracy as the main body of rule. Although financial backers and business groups like Huais can bring huge benefits, the nobles also give face to them in normal interactions. But rules handed down from ancient times, such as banquet rankings, still have to be based on the rank of the nobles.

One after another, the great nobles appeared on the stage, the scene became more and more lively, and the banquet was about to begin... "Aha, isn't this Sir Arthur?"

As soon as Tang En walked through the short corridor, Fei Rui couldn't wait to wave hello and came up from the crowd.

"Oh, it's Mr. Jack."

...After the acting was over, the two of them greeted each other at close range. Tang En's lips moved slightly and he lowered his voice: "What's going on?"

"I won't be able to tell for a while, but I was dragged to the gambling table and I almost lost all the money you gave me earlier!" Fei Rui muttered very quickly, then patted Tang En on the shoulder, with an excited expression on his face, " Sir Arthur, now that we have met, how about you come and have fun with me?"

"I'll wipe..." Tang En said depressedly. Just in case, he gave Fei Rui a thousand gold coins to keep him close to him. As for Bosco, he has the remaining money for purchases, so naturally he doesn't need it.

The distance between the two people widened. Tang En showed a hint of interest and smoothed his sleeves. "I am an expert at such fun things. You should have called me over earlier."

The two of them greeted each other casually, and the people at the table over there were already waiting impatiently. When Fei Rui introduced Tang En to everyone, Tang En glanced at the table. There was a large bowl-shaped groove on it, with a dozen lines evenly spaced on the inner wall, marking the numbers from one to twelve. Now there is a small crystal ball parked at the bottom of the nine. In front of everyone, there are stacks of thick or thin golden tickets.

"Brother Jack, you are the only one left to throw now. Quick, quick..." After greeting each other, a fat man who looked like a businessman kept urging.

"Okay." Fei Rui gave Tang En a thumbs up, then picked up the small crystal ball inside and placed it in his palm, close to the bowl-shaped groove, and exerted force with his thumb. The small ball quickly rotated along the inner wall. With a crisp sound, the small ball After spinning for about five times, I finally landed on the bottom of 2 after exhausting my strength.

"Alas..." "Ha..."

A few sighs and a cheer. The fat man who looked like a businessman just now quickly put away a few golden tickets with a face value of one hundred on the table, and said with a beaming face, "Haha, I'm sorry, everyone, it seems that I am blessed by the God of Light tonight."

"Come again, come again..." The other people were obviously unconvinced and placed one hundred gold tickets on the table again.

Fei Rui first pushed out the last golden ticket in front of him, then approached Tang En and whispered the rules in his ear.

After a few words, Tang En nodded clearly. This game is actually very simple. It is to throw a small ball, let it rotate in the bowl-shaped groove for more than three times, and then see which number grid it stops in. Whoever has the biggest can take other people’s money. If there is a tie between two people, the two people continue to throw until there is a winner.

As for the taboo, if the ball does not turn three times, or if the ball is pushed too hard and slips out of the groove, it will be eliminated.

While talking, Ferry threw again, and this time it landed on two gorgeously, with slim chance of winning.

"Oh, how stupid are you..." Tang En stroked his forehead, then patted Fei Rui's shoulder, who was shocked, and secretly stuffed another stack of gold tickets.

"Everyone." Tang En saluted briefly and looked at the entertainment props on the table with great interest. "How about you count me in?"

"Oh? Brother Arthur is also interested?" The fat man waved his face with a red face because he had just won another round, "It doesn't matter, it's more fun when there are more people, I have no objection."

"I don't have any objection, let's get started."

... Even Tang En, a total of eight people at the table, seemed to be in the mood, and no one expressed any objection, so Tang En immediately joined in after taking the golden ticket, ranking behind Ferry, which was at the end.

Soon, under Fei Rui's speechless gaze, the ball he threw stopped at two again.

"Haha!" Everyone couldn't help but laugh at the table. Then Tang En picked up the crystal ball, played with it for a while, and threw it at will near the groove.

"Twelve, twelve... eh?" As Tang En kept whispering, the crystal ball spun four times and landed on the second spot where it had just stayed.

"Haha, you, you are really..."

"We are all in trouble! Haha..."

To be able to hit two in twelve consecutive squares is such a tragic... luck. This coincidence made several other people burst into laughter.

"Haha, you're the only one who's talking about me, Arthur..." Fei Rui had a gloating expression on his face, but when he got closer, he whispered, "Are you sure? Or should we find an excuse to withdraw?"

Fei Rui had lost a thousand gold coins before. Unlike others, he was a noble and wealthy businessman and didn't care about this. He called Tang Enlai, not wanting to make a comeback. But judging from the current situation, high strength is obviously useless.

"It doesn't matter." Tang En responded in a low voice, then waved his hand as if unwilling to do so, "Come again, come again..."

There's no way you can win money right away. Isn't this a sure sign of ruining the situation? What's more, he has never played this before. The weight of the crystal ball, the circumference of the bowl-shaped groove, etc. can only be estimated initially and are not clear. But even so, Tang En's random throw just now was actually intended to land on one, but there was an error and it ended up on two, just like Ferry... The second round started again, and the numbers thrown by everyone came out one after another. , before Ferry, the fat businessman was still the highest, throwing a full ten points. Obviously, this is a very high number in the game, almost a sure win.

Fei Rui wiped the sweat from his forehead. To be honest, he was really a little nervous. If Tang En wasn't there, he would definitely run away. After several gestures, the ball spun out. After running six times, Fei Rui had a black line on his head again. At this time, his strength was exhausted, and the ball was obviously heading for decimals such as one, two, and three.

"Your mother!" Sure enough, this time the ball was worse than last time and stopped directly.

"Haha..." Everyone looked up and laughed again. I have to say that even though I lost money, it was definitely worth it to see such a weird scene.

"Brother, don't be too sad!" With a sad expression on his face, Tang En patted Fei Rui on the shoulder and took a deep breath: "Your sacrifice is definitely valuable. You have thrown everything away. I am definitely ten thousand this time." two."

"..." Fei Rui stood dumbly, speechless.

Wheel, wheel... the ball rotated along the inner wall under Tang En's casual toss. It wasn't until after eight turns that the force slowly weakened and it slid downwards sharply.

"Uh..." Everyone looked a little dazed at this time. As long as they slowed down, the general range was easy to judge. And according to the trend of the little ball, it's either twelve or one!

"Twelve, twelve..."

"all……"

This is the charm similar to gambling, sports, etc. When you get interested, you will involuntarily throw away the constraints of your identity and concentrate on your image regardless of your image. Tang En and the fat businessman were like this now, staring straight at the little ball and shouting one after another.

Finally, the small ball ran out of force in the number twelve, slowly rolled forward with inertia, and finally came to the middle of the line between twelve and one.

"Turn, turn..." The fat businessman's face turned red, and he wished he could just stick to it and blow on it to make the little ball move forward obediently.

However, the result was the opposite. After the ball stopped, it reversed a bit, and most of it landed on the twelve-digit grid.

"Haha..." Tang En let out a long laugh, his face full of excitement, and collected the golden tickets on the table, "Brother Jack, thank you for transferring your luck to me. Ha, I'm sorry, everyone!"

The gambling game started again, and what happened next was weird.

Tang En lost and won, won more and lost less, and soon he had a pile of golden tickets in front of him. There is nothing surprising about this, but the key point is that every time Twain wins, it is basically after Ferry throws a decimal. And Fei Rui's probability of throwing a decimal is too high... The most depressing person in this situation is not the ones who lose the most money, but the fat businessman. He had a high chance of throwing a high number, but most of them were beaten by Tang En. Once after he rolled twelve, he was evenly matched, and then was beaten again... After several times, the fat man was ahead of him. The number of golden tickets gradually decreased. He raised his head and looked at Tang En's ecstatically red face. Then he looked down at the constantly rotating ball and shook his head with a bitter look on his face. The final expression was that of looking at Fei Rui with a look of resentment... Of course Tang En could feel Fatty's observation, but if he saw the flaw, Tang En could really commit suicide.

This game seems simple. It seems that as long as you master the strength well, you can win without losing. But it is not that easy in actual operation. The prescribed three rotations are very restrictive. People are not machines. Even if the force is calculated in mind, errors will still occur every time it is used. It tests subtle operations. As long as you don't cheat, no matter how strong you are, it won't be of much help. After all, the essence of fighting spirit is domineering. But Tang En was different. He could quickly circle his hand several times with a dagger without getting hurt, let alone this small ball.

Of course, this does not mean that others have no methods at all. As long as you can calm down and exercise hard, even ordinary people can gradually come into contact with that subtle feeling. Take the fat businessman in front of him, for example. After several observations, Tang En has realized that the reason why he can throw high numbers is not because of the blessing of the God of Light, but because he has definitely practiced this.

The reason that can be seen is very simple, because when he throws a high number, the ball basically only spins three times. You should know that the more laps you make, the harder it is to control the force. And this was also the reason why although he doubted Tang En, he always denied himself. Because the small balls thrown by Tang En basically spin in a circle... The one who knows Tang En's technique is Fei Rui, who is familiar with him. Although the points he throws always embarrass him, Fei Rui can't help but feel excited when he sees the gold tickets that are constantly pushing up in front of Tang En. Think about it, a handful of them is a net profit of 600 gold coins. Ten handfuls equals six thousand, one hundred equals sixty thousand... Opening a gold mine is not as efficient!

"Hey, Jack, why are you number two? How can you be worthy of the other brothers? This makes me feel embarrassed to win, haha..." Tang En picked up the ball, his face full of arrogance after winning often.

Fei Rui consciously covered his face and acted as if he was shameless in public. After seeing his points, the other people no longer felt excited and stared at him with resentment.

"Okay, let me throw another twelve!"

Roller, dong dong dong... The ball flew out of the groove after spinning in a circle, bounced a few times on the table, and landed on the ground.

"Well……"

"Haha, I won!" The fat businessman clenched his fists and raised his head and shouted, with tears streaming down his face. It was really not easy.

Fei Rui turned his head to look at Tang En in surprise, but Tang En had a complicated expression on his face, his body was shaking violently, and he was staring straight at the main entrance of the hall...
