Age of Empires From Scratch

KING full house; four cards QUEEN; straight flush.

The people at David's table changed one after another, and the chips in front of him were also increasing.

Several women were very happy to see it. Even Cheng Xiaoxi was bursting with joy, as if winning money had nothing to do with her.

Chen Xiaodao next to him finally realized that David was just playing around before, and then he showed his real skills.

However, at this time, Dao Zai did not realize the seriousness of the matter, and felt that the card game had become interesting. He met an interesting opponent.

It wasn't until the straight flush in his hand turned into a bad card for some reason that he realized that he had not hit his opponent, but had kicked a brick.

"I didn't expect that I was mistaken." Chen Xiaodao originally wanted to have a showdown with David, but Long Jiu patted him on the shoulder and shook his head gently.

Realizing that the person next to him seemed to be someone who could not be offended casually, and that he had other serious things to do, Chen Xiaodao decided to stop.

Although I lost tens of thousands of yuan, the loss was not serious.

"We'll compete again at the poker competition in a few days. I'm leaving first." Putting away the chips in front of him, Chen Xiaodao greeted David and then left the table.

Then he led Long Jiu all the way to the bar, ordered a drink, and asked in a low voice: "Who is that David?"

"The boss of Wanshiwu has a good relationship with the police. The detailed background is unclear." Long Jiu had several guesses in his mind, but he could not tell others casually about any of these guesses.

It's okay if you guess wrong, but it's troublesome if you guess right.

"Everything House?"

"It is said that it is a company that accepts any commissioned work. As long as the other party is interested, even if it is looking for cats or dogs, we will accept it."

"You can do anything just for money?"

"He's not short of money."

"Only those who have fun will take it." Chen Xiaodao laughed: "He seems to be a very interesting guy."

Ordinary people would never open a company just for fun. Even if they did open a company, they might not have the ability to handle all kinds of weird commissions.

So not only is this person not short of money, he is also very capable. The fact that the other party is on good terms with the police proves this - his trump card was changed just now. I wonder if it was due to a thousand skills or special powers?

After learning Qian Shu from his master, Chen Xiaodao learned that the world is not as simple as it seems on the surface. There are all kinds of wonders in the world, and there are countless talented people and strangers. There are also many people who have magical abilities. Master reminded him more than once, When you encounter an unfamiliar opponent in the future, you must be careful and cautious, and don't reveal all your cards before you know the opponent's details.

"By the way, do you know why he appears here?"

Since he was doing that kind of work, could it be that he boarded the Fuki Maru after receiving some kind of commission?

"A coincidence."

Chen Xiaodao looked at Long Jiu, who was always expressionless and maintained an iceberg face, and guessed that Long Jiu must know the inside story, but she was unwilling to tell him.

Not willing to say let it go, Chen Xiaodao's mind changed and he thought of another point: "If I want to hire him and ask him to help us deal with the guy pretending to be me, do you think he will agree?"

Long Jiu really hadn't thought about this. She knew that David's visit to Fuguiwan was related to the police's investigation of terrorists, and she also knew that David's Wanshiwu was willing to accept any commission.

But I never considered hiring David to help.

Inertia thinking, she always felt that only she and her brother Long Wu knew the true identity of Chen Xiaodao, the gambler, and that only the Political Department knew about the investigation of the fake gambler to collect money in the name of charity - now Cheng Xiaodong had to be added.

"I don't know if he will agree. I just know that he wants to enjoy the trip and doesn't want to be disturbed."

"That's it...don't worry, let's try again."

Chen Xiaodao drank the drink he ordered and walked to the card table with Long Jiu, only to find that David had already left.

I walked around the casino and saw no one.

"Oops, I don't know where I went."

Although Sofia didn't complain about the Fuki Maru cruise ship very much, it was still quite difficult to find someone when you didn't know which room to stay in.

It was Long Jiu who told Chen Xiaodao that he could ask David's room number, which made Chen Xiaodao not so depressed.

At this time, David was having dinner with Sophia, Cheng Leer, and the three sisters of the Cheng family.

During the meal, Cheng Xiaoxi and her two sisters vividly described the scene of David killing everyone at the card table.

"David won three hundred thousand for a thousand dollars."

This is because there is little time to play, and the stakes are not high. If David had been allowed to play a little longer, he might have been able to win three million US dollars in one go and qualify to participate in the charity poker competition;

Of course, it's also possible that no one wants to play with David.

"So awesome?" Cheng Xiaonan has never been interested in gambling, nor does he appreciate people who like gambling, but he sat at the same table with a man who could win hundreds of thousands with a thousand yuan at the poker table. , she will also feel magical.

He looked at David curiously. Although it was not the first time he saw him, he once again exclaimed, ‘He’s really handsome! ’.

But she didn't have the slightest fondness for playboys or anything like that, so she was simply admiring David's looks and didn't want to have any more contact with this man.

She and her eldest sister even privately reminded her third sister, Cheng Xiaoxi, not to let appearances affect her judgment.

Although he is shockingly handsome, Xiaoxi, you must control yourself and never be fooled by beauty. You will not end up well!

Compared to Cheng Xiaonan, Cheng Xiaodong guessed that David must have cheated. After all, she had seen David's weird methods with her own eyes. He could make such a big person disappear, and it should be easy to turn into a playing card.

"It's a pity that no matter how much you win, you can't take it away. All the money will be used for charity."

Although David won a lot of money, there was no way to exchange it for real money.

After recording David's 'chip limit', the waiter gave David a voucher to ensure that he could continue to use these chips when he went back.

Including the final charity poker competition, all the entry fees of the contestants are converted into chips, plus all the proceeds from the casino on the ship, will be used for charity activities - or so the promotion said.

David knew that the sea mountain would take away all the money, but he didn't know whether he would take the money and run away after arriving in Japan, or wait until he returned to Hong Kong before running away?

Judging from the date of the charity poker tournament, there is a high probability that it will come ashore from Japan.

"So the casino on the ship is a charity casino?"

Cheng Xiaonan didn't know about this until this moment. As a social worker, Cheng Xiaonan is a very kind girl. When she found out that it was a charity casino, she immediately said that she could also contribute some money and asked David to exchange it for chips and treat it as a contribution to charity.

"Although it's not a lot, it's still my thoughts."

Looking at the 10,000 yuan handed over by Cheng Xiaonan, David did not show any politeness and humility. He took it directly, put it into his pocket, and said casually: "Xiaonan, you can come with Xiaoxi to see how I put it together." The value of the money is maximized.”

He just invited Cheng Xiaonan to supervise the use of the donation as normal. Unexpectedly, almost everyone at the table looked at him before he finished his sentence.

"how?"

"Nothing." Sophia was the first to answer, and at the same time looked at Cheng Xiaonan curiously. Cheng Xiaonan felt strange because she didn't hide it.

Cheng Leer next to him just glanced at David, stretched out his hand and wanted to secretly twist David's flesh hard, but after searching for a long time, he couldn't find a place to start, so he stepped on it with the heel of his high-heeled shoes in frustration. David.

David was stunned and didn't react at all, which made Cheng Leer even more depressed.

Cheng Xiaodong and Cheng Xiaoxi stared at David with sharp and warning eyes. Cheng Xiaodong looked as if he was going to empty the magazine in the next moment.

Cheng Xiaoxi was much better, but kept using vicious eyes to warn David not to take advantage of his second sister.

Seeing everyone's reactions, David rolled his eyes speechlessly, not bothering to explain anything and continued eating.

After dinner, we originally made an appointment to go to the theater to watch a show together, but in the end it was David, Sophia, and Cheng Leer who went to watch the show together. The three Cheng sisters started activities together.

Because she was the only one around her, Sophia no longer had any scruples about chatting, and asked David in front of Cheng Leer: "Are you attracted to Cheng Xiaonan?"

"..."

Cheng Leer became Cheng Bule again. She knew the situation and knew the situation. She could regard the situation of David and Sophia as coming from a place with different living customs, so their ideas were different from her own. She can understand some of Sophia's behaviors, but that doesn't mean she will be happy.

Fortunately, David's answer made her no longer so depressed.

"I'm not Teddy. I want to take one when I see one."

"Oh, it seems that you are indeed not interested in Xiaonan." Sophia knew David's character, and when David said this, she was sure that he was indeed not interested in Cheng Xiaonan.

I was about to ask David if he had any thoughts about the eldest sister of the Cheng family? Jack appeared in front of several people with a girl and greeted them.

"This is Kiyoko Imamura. I was entrusted by an old friend to take her home."

It was because of this girl that Jack boarded the Fuki Maru. It took him some time to find this girl on the ship. Even now, he still hasn't convinced this girl to come home with him honestly.

However, being on the cruise ship, Imamura Kiyoko couldn't escape, so she reluctantly acted with Jack.

What he didn't expect was that Jack actually knew such a super handsome guy!

Imamura Kiyoko's eyes were shining, but after a brief look, Sofia gave this girl a cross in her heart: she is not tall, her legs are not long, and she has no flesh. She perfectly avoids all of David's quirks. She would probably be willing to take advantage of him if she took the initiative. Will not succeed.

Sure enough, David's eyes only glanced at Imamura Kiyoko, and the time they stayed was not as long as it was on Jack's nose.
