Chapter 610 Get Out of Here with Your People
Besides, these people might not even be capable of doing this, and Mr. He isn't someone to be trifled with here.
There are only three hundred gunmen. The people Jiang Bai prepared will not arrive until tonight at the earliest, but Jiang Bai believes that Mr. He has a way to solve the problem.
This old guy is meticulous in everything he does; he always has a backup plan.
Even if Portugal were reduced to ashes, Jiang Bai would still make up for his losses by taking action against them.
It's unlikely that we'll go there and start a war with them directly, but there are plenty of ways to deal with them.
With such close trade and deep-rooted transactions between the two countries, wouldn't it be easy for Jiang Bai to deal with them?
Even if they don't have businesses in Southeast Asia, Jiang Bai could wipe out all those connected to them if he wanted to, and they wouldn't be able to bear the consequences.
Ultimately, we can make up for it by taking it from them.
"Is what you're saying what Mr. He meant?"
Spears squinted at Jiang Bai and said noncommittally, his face expressionless.
However, Jiang Bai noticed that there were fine beads of sweat on the other person's forehead, indicating that the other person was quite nervous.
Going to war is a major event; it's not something that can be decided just by talking about it.
Everyone's willing to fight, but the problem is nobody wants to fight.
Going to war is a false proposition. Once war breaks out, both sides will be severely damaged. Anyone with a brain wouldn't do that.
That's why Spears asked that question, hoping Mr. He would compromise. He had already planned that as long as Mr. He hesitated even slightly, he would immediately offer Jiang Bai and the others a way out.
They'll leave behind the money they've won these days, and then they'll be gone.
Since the problem has already been discovered and the superpowered expert I brought is dead, my objective this time is definitely not going to be achieved, and I can't take the money with me. Since that's the case, I might as well be more decisive.
However, he couldn't bring this up himself. He was sure the other party would take advantage of him if he brought it up, which is why he asked the question.
"Mr. Jiang's words are my words. If Mr. Jiang wants to fight, we will naturally fight!" Mr. He also saw the problem.
When two armies meet on a narrow path, the brave will prevail. What matters now is patience and courage. If one side backs down, the other will immediately take advantage of the situation. Therefore, one must never admit defeat.
Although this could potentially provoke a real fight, since they've gone so far as to bully him and try to manipulate him, Mr. He isn't going to be a pushover and let them take advantage of him.
If he doesn't take a firm stance this time, who knows if they'll come back in the future? What if just any Tom, Dick, or Harry dares to cause trouble?
"Gentlemen, are you really sure about this?" As soon as Mr. He said this, Spears's face turned extremely ugly.
He never expected the other party's attitude to be so tough.
What should we do now?
Should we go to war?
Neither morally nor in terms of interests should we start a war now.
So Spears sighed and finally said, "How about this, we concede, hand over the money we've won these past few days, and we won't pursue the dead anymore. I'll leave with our men. What do you two think?"
He had done a thorough investigation before coming, especially regarding the mysterious shareholder Jiang Bai. He hadn't recognized him at first, but when Mr. He said "Mr. Jiang," he immediately realized Jiang Bai's identity.
He knew that Mr. He was not someone to be trifled with.
But Jiang Bai was even more formidable, a fact he knew all too well.
Before he arrived, the family held a meeting. The family head insisted that he bring people, but the elders objected, one of the reasons being Jiang Bai.
Jiang Bai, this guy who dominates Southeast Asia, is now notorious even in Country A. He's not exactly famous, but anyone who has investigated him doesn't want to get involved.
Yin Tianchou and Wang Zhenxu, based in Hong Kong and Taiwan, wielded immense power over countless years. Their influence extended beyond the local area, extending to numerous individuals and organizations overseas, with whom they maintained close ties.
Everyone is aware of their combined power, and the Gambino family, a Mafia family, knows these two bigwigs very well, and they have even cooperated closely with each other.
When these two people died, they received the news and naturally knew that Jiang Bai was a big problem.
A little investigation into Jiang Bai's background reveals that this guy is not to be trifled with.
Because he is completely unreasonable, and he doesn't act based on self-interest, but only on his own momentary whims.
There is absolutely no pattern to their behavior, and such people are the kind of people that the Gambino family, with its long and distinguished history, least wants to provoke.
The reason Mr. He and his associates dare to provoke him is because Mr. He is old, timid, and he is more cautious and deliberate in his actions. He is willing to compromise for personal gain. If a conflict were to occur among them, they would have an unspoken understanding to keep it within a certain range.
Ultimately, it all comes down to prioritizing profit.
Anyone who has investigated Jiang Bai knows that he is young, impulsive, daring, and powerful. He has no scruples and does whatever he wants. If you provoke him, he will fight you to the death, which is completely against the interests of the family.
Besides, they might not be able to afford to offend Jiang Bai.
So before coming, Spears was repeatedly warned that he could do whatever he wanted, but he shouldn't provoke the new shareholder, Jiang Bai.
But he got carried away and didn't pay attention. He only looked at Jiang Bai's photo once before discarding it, thinking that he was sure of success this time.
I never thought I'd only remember Jiang Bai now that I've suffered a loss.
So after hearing Jiang Bai's name, he wisely made a compromise.
This was also something the family had instructed them to do: if the other side became too aggressive, they should not start a war over it. It would be best if they could get Portugal, but even if they couldn't, there would be no loss. There was no need to put the entire family in danger over this matter.
Besides, they were caught and exposed this time.
Although Spears was certain that the other party had no evidence and could not find any.
"What do you think, Mr. Jiang?" Mr. He asked with a smile, passing the question to Jiang Bai.
He certainly valued Jiang Bai's gambling skills, but that wasn't the most important thing. What mattered most was Jiang Bai's power and influence, which was his real purpose in bringing Jiang Bai over.
The purpose was to combine the power of the two people to put pressure on the other.
It now appears that the objective has been achieved.
Although it was a bit of a shame that I didn't beat my opponent at the gambling table, well, who can blame me for the opponent cheating?
"Fine, take your men and get out of here. I'm giving you three hours to get out, or none of you will be leaving once my men arrive tonight."
Jiang Bai snorted coldly and said disdainfully, unwilling to fight Spears to the end. He left with these words, telling the other party to get lost.
It's not that I'm afraid, it's just that I don't want to cause trouble.
Chapter 611 Extorting money in public?
"My men can leave, but I can't control those people outside." Spears sighed upon hearing this, turned to leave, but as he reached the door, he suddenly remembered something and quickly said.
"What do you mean?" Jiang Bai raised an eyebrow, somewhat displeased.
What does this guy mean? Is he upset about losing here?
There are ten guys outside. Do I have to deal with them one by one?
Did they really think that just because I gave them face, didn't want to cause trouble, and told them to leave, they'd back down? Are they easy to bully?
Are they taking advantage of me?
Not to mention Jiang Bai, even Mr. He, who was originally amiable, now had a gloomy face and looked very unhappy.
He felt that Spears was playing a trick on him!
He left alone, a man whose tricks had been exposed, a man with no trump cards, but left ten experts behind to continue here.
What's the difference between that and not leaving at all?
"This...please don't misunderstand, it's not that I'm unwilling to take them away. Since I said it's over, it really is over. Our people will leave immediately, but they are not our people!"
Seeing the expressions on their faces, Spears realized they had misunderstood and quickly added something.
"If you're not one of yours, then whose are you?" This surprised both Jiang Bai and Mr. He.
Why did people other than Spears and his crew come along?
Wasn't the money Spears just raised also won back by them together?
We can share the money, but now you're saying we weren't meant to be together?
"Genting, Walker, Atlantic City, Tushan, the top ten clubs have all sent people over. These are all people we temporarily borrowed from them. Of course, the reason they are willing to borrow these experts who are holding the situation in place is that they also want a share of the pie here."
"So my men can leave, but I can't order them to. However, you can rest assured that I can negotiate with them, and I think they will choose to leave."
Spears said with a wry smile.
However, both Jiang Bai and Mr. He knew that this guy was putting on an act. They, Vegas, were the main force, and the others who came with them were just trying to take advantage of the chaos.
If those who spearheaded the attack have all left, do you think the others can just stay and not leave?
Spears said that simply to drag everyone else down with him.
Firstly, it would shift Jiang Bai and his group's focus, preventing them from concentrating their hatred solely on Vegas. Secondly, it would also create several targets for Jiang Bai to fight against.
Everyone saw through his intentions, and Jiang Bai, without hesitation, granted Spears's wish, coldly replying, "Whether I fight them later or not, it's our business. You just need to tell them one thing: if I find out they've done anything shady here, even the slightest bit, they won't be leaving here alive tonight."
Which true gambling master wouldn't resort to some tricks?
Nine out of ten gambling games are rigged; among ten gambling masters, all ten are con artists. Jiang Bai's god-level gambling skills only explain some gambling techniques and rules, but 99% of what he says is actually about how to cheat secretly.
So Jiang Bai's words were actually a message for Spears to tell those people that they either had to get lost or they shouldn't be leaving tonight.
Spears gave a wry smile, nodded, and left.
Jiang Bai and Mr. He left together and went upstairs to the spacious office. As they left the casino, Jiang Bai greeted the bewildered Chen Jiayi. After failing to get her phone number, Jiang Bai left with Mr. He.
When Jiang Bai arrived at the office upstairs, he was surprised to find two Hong Kong actresses dressed in bikinis chatting with red wine. When they saw Jiang Bai and Mr. He walk in, they immediately crowded around and rushed to Jiang Bai's side.
They greeted Jiang Bai affectionately and hugged him from both sides, which surprised Jiang Bai.
Mr. He laughed and said, "The money you win is yours. Since they cheated, all that money is yours. We'll only take back the cost of the last game we lent out; the rest is yours."
"As for these two, I think you're very familiar with them, haha, they're the two most beautiful actresses in Hong Kong. To be honest, if I were thirty years younger, I definitely wouldn't give them to you, but I'm too old now, I can't keep up."
"Consider these two as company perks for tonight."
Jiang Bai naturally accepted this offer with a smile.
These two Jiang Bais are very well-known. I admired them many years ago, but at that time Jiang Bai was just a greenhorn and the two had just debuted. Now, Jiang Bai has achieved great success and the two have also become top stars.
It's Mr. He; most people really wouldn't be able to find them.
Since Mr. He was willing to give it to him as a favor, Jiang Bai was happy to accept it, considering it a way to fulfill a childhood dream.
However, one of them is still single, while the other seems to be married.
Is it really okay for me to spend time with myself tonight? Will it affect the harmony of other people's families?
Jiang Bai expressed great concern.
However, between his own happiness and the harmony of other people's families, Jiang Bai clearly chose the selfish side.
Afterwards, Mr. He called up several young shareholders and his son, along with a group of beautiful women. He arranged fine wine and delicacies, and then walked out happily. According to him, he would not get involved in the world of young people.
As for those ten experts, Jiang Bai didn't bother asking. They should have already left by now.
After calling Xiao Tian and the others to tell them not to bother with their work, and depositing all the money into his bank account, Jiang Bai, who had received over 5 billion in cash, did not rush to repay his debts but instead indulged in a life of pleasure and debauchery.
When Jiang Bai woke up in the evening and was still not at peace, Mr. He personally invited her to dinner. Jiang Bai brought two beautiful female celebrities to the banquet.
During this time, he inevitably got completely drunk, drinking to the point of utter confusion.
After a satisfying meal, Mr. He originally wanted his son to arrange for Jiang Bai to continue his activities, but Jiang Bai suddenly refused the suggestion and asked Mr. He in a drunken haze, "Old He, I heard you have a private jet?"
"Huh? Yes, what's wrong?" Mr. He looked at Jiang Bai with some confusion and surprise.
Jiang Bai wants it?
Giving it to Jiang Bai wouldn't be a problem.
What Mr. He didn't understand was why Jiang Bai would ask such a question in public. He knew Jiang Bai's worth and how precious his reputation was.
How much does an airplane cost?
Is it worth Jiang Bai extorting money from everyone in public?
Chapter 612 Going to cause them trouble
"Let me borrow it for a bit," Jiang Bai said, stretching and standing up.
This puzzled Mr. He, who looked at Jiang Bai blankly and said, "Okay!"
After saying this, he immediately instructed his assistant to arrange a plane for Jiang Bai.
Although they didn't understand what Jiang Bai was trying to do, it was a small matter to them. What difference would it make if they gave Jiang Bai a plane?
How much is it worth?
This amount of money might be an astronomical figure that ordinary people could never reach in their lifetime, but for the people present, it was nothing.
"Then I'm off." Jiang Bai smiled, waved goodbye to the group of people who were drinking, and turned to leave.
This scene left everyone around bewildered and confused. They were drinking happily when Jiang Bai suddenly left.
What are you doing?
Mr. He asked this question subconsciously.
He then looked slightly embarrassed, realizing that asking such a question seemed a bit petty.
"It's only polite to reciprocate. They've come all this way, how can I not go and see them?"
Jiang Bai laughed and turned to leave, leaving the crowd looking bewildered.
Half an hour later, when the plane took off, someone reported that Jiang Bai had boarded a private jet to head to South Korea. According to the flight attendants, it seemed to be going to Walkerhill Hotel.
For a moment, everyone in the room looked at each other in bewilderment.
Mr. He was also stunned for a moment, and a helpless bitter smile appeared on his lips.
He knew the real trouble was coming.
"It seems we should mourn for our colleagues. I wonder if they will hold this old man accountable."
Mr. He stood up with a complicated expression and said loudly.
After he finished speaking, there was a brief silence in the room, then someone burst into laughter, and then the room erupted in laughter.
Everyone knows that Jiang Bai's intentions this time are definitely not good; he's here to avenge the previous humiliation.
Everyone present knew that Jiang Bai was notoriously difficult to deal with. He was drunk, left in the middle of the night, and took a private jet to Walker Mountain Villa. What good could he possibly be up to?
That's definitely going to cost people a fortune.
"All ten major casinos sent people this time, so why did Mr. Jiang only target Walker?" someone asked, puzzled.
As soon as he said that, some people around him immediately looked puzzled.
People from all ten major casinos have come, with the group from Vegas leading the way. If Jiang Bai wanted revenge or trouble, shouldn't he have flown straight to Vegas?
Why would you go to Walkerhill?
Walkerhill Manor is supposed to be the weakest of the three, so this doesn't make sense.
"I can answer that." Seeing the blank looks on everyone's faces, Mr. He's assistant, who had just come to report the situation, suddenly spoke up, speaking in a slightly embarrassed whisper.
"Um?"
His words drew everyone's attention, and they all wanted to see what he had to say.
"As Mr. Jiang just said, we're going to Walker because it's close. He already told the crew on the plane to prepare, saying they'll be working hard recently as they'll be flying to many places. So after we get to South Korea, we'll rest for one night and then head to the Tushan Casino."
"They said they'd give them bonuses or something after this is over."
"The crew thought it was just a joke, so they just mentioned it briefly and didn't take it seriously."
"hiss!"
These words immediately caused everyone around to gasp. They looked at each other, exchanging bewildered glances, and a bitter smile appeared on their faces.
The Portuguese Group isn't afraid of dealing with a place like Walkerhill. They're a large and powerful nation, and they're already competitors with Walkerhill, so dealing with them isn't a big deal for them.
Besides, they were the ones who started the trouble first, weren't they?
But the world's top ten casinos include those in Portugal. Does this mean he'll be visiting the other nine one by one?
Thinking of what Jiang Bai had done in Portugal and his character, everyone present gave a wry smile.
They knew Jiang Bai all too well!
Once we get there, can we still speak kindly to each other?
"Ahem, everyone, please excuse the hard work lately. Please transfer all your personnel outside back to Jiangmen just in case. Notify the local community groups to monitor any suspicious outsiders. Also, communicate with the police and tell them to be prepared. Tell them that we have received information that someone will be coming to Portugal to cause trouble soon, and it is very likely that they are international terrorists."
In the end, it was Mr. He who made the final decision, speaking up while everyone else remained silent.
This made the people around him look a little strange.
What terrorist?
Aren't they all subordinates of these few companies?
It seems Mr. He is also aware that Jiang Bai's departure will soon bring about a major disaster, and the people there will not allow Jiang Bai to cause trouble there.
If Jiang Bai goes too far, the other party will definitely retaliate. However, they certainly won't attack Jiang Bai himself, as that would be unwise.
Doing this will not only bring no benefit, but may also invite tremendous retaliation. Who doesn't know that he's a lunatic? A hedgehog covered in thorns?
Want to bite him?
We also need to check if your teeth are in good condition.
Most importantly, that guy doesn't have many businesses of his own. Although he recently merged with Flying Eagle Enterprises to form a brand new Imperial Enterprise Group, most of the group's assets have been mortgaged to banks and various powerful forces.
Moreover, it is said that the company has purchased substantial insurance policies for its major fixed assets from major insurance companies around the world.
Once that place is touched, it's tantamount to going against several major powers, major banks, and numerous insurance groups worldwide. Not only will it not cause Jiang Bai any trouble, but it will also allow someone to make a fortune.
More importantly, it will create countless enemies.
Trying to take over an imperial enterprise will likely result in a lose-lose situation.
Only the dumbest person would do that.
Moreover, Jiang Bai is now departing on Mr. He's private plane, and his purpose in going out is to vent his anger on behalf of Portugal.
Of course, this was Jiang Bai's own idea and had nothing to do with Mr. He. Mr. He had only lent him an airplane.
But only those present knew this; others were unaware.
To say that Jiang Bai's actions had nothing to do with Portugal or Mr. He would be unbelievable.
When this group finally seeks revenge, their first target will definitely be Jiang Bai. However, everyone knows that this guy is not to be trifled with; he has a notorious reputation. It's hard to imagine how those people in Europe and America would deal with him, but in Southeast Asia, such as Walker, Tushan, and Yunding, they certainly wouldn't dare to do anything to him.
Unless they're tired of living and really want to provoke the King of Hell of Tiandu to take their heads?
They dared not provoke Jiang Bai, but they were determined to vent their anger.
Where does it end up?
Isn't it all due to Portugal and their shareholders?
Chapter 613 Mr. He is preparing
Thinking about this, the people around felt their scalps tingle.
"Okay, we'll get on it right away."
It's unclear who first uttered this statement, but it immediately garnered everyone's approval.
At this point, no one dared to indulge in alcohol anymore. Everyone quickly got up, said goodbye to each other, and immediately began to instruct their subordinates to shrink all their businesses outside, gather their manpower, and return to Jiangmen to be on high alert.
Although Jiang Bai's actions were quite satisfying, it would be a lie to say that they weren't angry that the other side had come in large numbers and made such a mess of the place.
Jiang Bai's actions certainly pleased them, but they had to bear the consequences, leaving them with a bitter taste in their mouths.
As for persuading Jiang Bai to come back, no one said anything from beginning to end, because everyone knows that's impossible. If the King of Hell listened to advice, he wouldn't be the King of Hell.
Jiangmen is in complete chaos because of him. Jiang Bai is unaware of this, and even if he were, he wouldn't care. He acts entirely on his own whims and doesn't consider many other factors.
He will never hesitate to retaliate if anyone provokes him.
Jiang Bai hadn't considered all aspects of dealing with the nine major casinos excluding Portugal. It was only natural for Jiang Bai to deal with them when they came looking for trouble. He could make money and gain prestige at the same time, so why wouldn't he do it?
As for whether others will be happy or worried, that's completely outside Jiang Bai's consideration. Whatever they do is their business, what does it have to do with Jiang Bai?
Two hours later, Jiang Bai got off the plane. It was already late at night. Jiang Bai sent a text message to Han Youxi, telling her that he had arrived in South Korea again, but she did not reply.
Jiang Bai guessed that the man was asleep, so he didn't call him and went straight to Walker Manor.
Upon entering the casino, despite it being late at night, it was still packed with guests.
Jiang Bai casually exchanged $10,000 in cash for chips and began his gambling journey.
Jiang Bai first chose a blackjack table and began his frenzied looting spree.
Half an hour later, Jiang Bai's ten thousand US dollars turned into two million. The casino dealer, wiping away sweat, told Jiang Bai that he was off duty and a skilled dealer had taken over.
He killed one of the opponents, leaving them sprawled on the ground. When the two million became twenty million, Jiang Bai left the blackjack table, which had already been occupied by four different people.
They headed straight for a baccarat table that was packed with people.
Everyone inside Walkerhill Manor tensed up immediately. At two in the morning, the president was dragged out of bed.
The casino director was abruptly pulled from the girl's arms.
As for the top expert who had previously made great contributions in Portugal, he was drunk and had to be doused with cold water several times before he sobered up. When he woke up, he was already in the casino's surveillance room.
"Everyone, what should we do? This guy took $10,000 in chips at 1 o'clock and started playing at the blackjack table. In just one hour, we've had four dealers, and he's lost $20 million."
"Now it's great. Twenty million US dollars in chips has turned into two hundred million US dollars in a short time at baccarat. And this is just what he won. Other gamblers have made a lot of money following him."
"It's unbelievable, the banker has won 24 times in a row. Luckily, he only loses a few million each time. If he had bet all his money every time, I think we would be bankrupt by now."
The owner of Walkerhill Hotel stood in his office, his face grim as he looked at his trusted lieutenants and spoke angrily.
Such a huge blunder! Two hundred million US dollars were won by someone in just a few hours.
He has to find someone to bear this loss.
But that's a story for later. What they need to face now is how to resolve the current predicament. Only after resolving the current predicament can they continue.
"Holy crap! He's bet everything!" Just then, the casino's top expert, who had once caused trouble at a Portuguese hotel and was known as the world's number one baccarat player, exclaimed in surprise.
"Holy crap!"
In an instant, everyone in the room lost all interest in talking. This was a whopping two hundred million US dollars. If Jiang Bai won, they would have to pay out two hundred million US dollars. They were betting everything and determined to fight him to the bitter end.
In an instant, everyone held their breath and stared nervously at the screen.
No one said anything else, not because they wanted to stop, but because it had already begun and they didn't have time to continue.
"Holy crap! They've opened 25 hands in a row! I'm going to kill this dealer!"
The result was obvious: Jiang Bai won again. The boss of Walker shouted in surprise, his eyes bloodshot, almost yelling out the words.
The people around were silent, no one dared to utter a sound. The boss had lost so much money, who would dare to provoke him at this time?
Are you looking for death?
"Boss, the most important thing now is to stop it immediately and find someone else to play with him." The president reacted quickly. His income was directly linked to the casino's revenue. With so much money lost today, his bonus would plummet, which was heartbreaking for him.
Ignoring the boss's angry expression, his first thought was to immediately replace Jiang Bai with a different dealer. As for who to replace him with, was there even a question?
The "Supreme Protector of Walker Casino" is none other than the man beside me who was doused with several buckets of ice water and is known as the world's number one baccarat player.
If we don't use him now, who else can we use?
"Okay! Stop it immediately and tell them the dealer is off duty and we need to replace him!" Walker's boss reacted immediately, exclaiming in alarm as he hurriedly said.
He also realized that this was the most important thing right now.
As for other matters, they can be postponed.
As he left, on the other side, the guy who claimed to be the world's number one baccarat player and had the title of "Asian God of Hands" had already gone out, straightened his clothes at the door, and was about to face Jiang Bai, this unknown expert.
Although Jiang Bai looked somewhat familiar, he couldn't quite place where he had seen him before.
After he left, the boss roared, "Investigate! Find out who this person is. I'm sure he's not just lucky; he's definitely a master, and he's here to cause trouble. His purpose in coming here at this time is definitely not pure."
"I want to know who sent him to deal with me!"
After saying this, he seemed to remember something and continued, "Arrest all those dealers and thoroughly investigate their backgrounds, especially the female dealer in baccarat. I need all her information! There can be no doubts!"
"If it is found that they are colluding with outsiders to swindle our money, I will make them regret ever being born."
As he issued these orders one by one, his men immediately began to carry them out. The room fell silent for a moment, and no one spoke up for the dealers, even though most people knew they should be fine.
Otherwise, they wouldn't have been able to stay at the casino for so long. Moreover, some of them are the casino's personal experts, who underwent several investigations before coming and are absolutely capable of withstanding the test.
How could there be a problem?
Chapter 614 Asia's Number One Divine Hand
However, no one was willing to talk about it, and no one dared to talk about it; no one wanted to offend the boss at this time.
As for the dealers and such, who cares about their lives?
Besides, they deserved to die; who told them to lose so much money?
The atmosphere inside the room became somber.
A few minutes later, the enthusiastic crowd surrounding Jiang Bai gradually dispersed. Just as Jiang Bai himself wanted to find a new gambling table to continue, he was stopped by a man dressed in a simple suit vest and dressed as a dealer.
"Sir, don't you like baccarat? Why did you stop?"
The other party asked with a smile, as if afraid that Jiang Bai would run away. After saying this, he took the initiative to stand in the dealer's position and began to shuffle the cards.
"No, I just thought that since no one has come for so long, you might not be planning to open the table. So I'm going to play at another table. Anyway, I'm determined to win all the money from your Walkerhill Hotel today, so how could I not play?"
Jiang Bai made no attempt to hide his purpose from the other party and stated it clearly.
Although he did not reveal his identity, given the power of Walkerhill Manor, finding out his identity would be a piece of cake.
Once people know his identity and recognize who he is, they will understand his purpose. In that case, why bother hiding it? He might as well set up his carriage and fight them.
These words caused the other party's expression to change drastically. He stood there staring at Jiang Bai in horror, and said with a solemn expression, "Are you here to cause trouble?"
"Do you have a grudge against Walkerhill Manor? Looking for trouble? Do you know where you are? Do you know who our boss is?"
Faced with the barrage of questions, Jiang Bai simply sat there, picked up his half-finished whiskey, and replied dismissively, "You guessed right, I'm here to cause trouble and sabotage things. I really do have a grudge against you guys!"
"As for your boss? Quan Xiangdong? I know him. He's a big shot who has connections in both the underworld and legitimate society. He has deep ties with the South Korean government and is considered a heavyweight in South Korea. I estimate that, apart from the three major conglomerates, your boss would rank among the top three most powerful figures in South Korea."
"But... what does this have to do with me?"
"Since you dared to cause trouble in Portugal, then I can naturally collect your corpses here! Let me tell you, my purpose in coming here this time is very clear: either I win all your money, or... your Walkerhill Hotel will be shut down from now on!"
"You decide how to do it!"
"Are you from Portugal?"
The croupier's expression suddenly changed, and he looked at Jiang Bai as if he had seen a ghost, asking incredulously.
Then, still fuming, he said, "I'm not the only one causing trouble in Portugal, and it's not just our Walker family. Why don't you go elsewhere? Why do you come here specifically to cause us trouble? Do you think we're easy to bully?"
"Stop talking nonsense and deal your cards! Aren't you supposed to be Asia's number one baccarat player and the world's number one ranked player? Stop wasting your breath and deal the cards already! Otherwise, I'm going to play at another table!"
Jiang Bai came in a hurry, but that didn't mean he was completely clueless. On his way here, he had someone thoroughly investigate the entire Walkerhill Manor.
Jiang Bai knew everything about the important figures involved, who the boss was, the boss's background, and so on.
He came prepared.
With just one sentence, the number one healer in Asia was rendered speechless. He merely glanced at the waiter standing behind Jiang Bai not far away, who immediately understood and hurriedly left to report the news to the higher-ups.
He himself stood there and continued gambling with Jiang Bai.
"I have 400 million. I'll be the dealer, and I bet I'll keep winning!" Jiang Bai smiled slightly and threw all the chips that came his way.
The $400 million figure is truly breathtaking.
"Damn it!" the other person cursed inwardly, his forehead already covered in beads of sweat, before dealing cards to Jiang Bai and himself.
Unfortunately, before he could even reveal his hand after dealing the cards, Jiang Bai had already revealed his hand: nine points.
He paused for a moment, opened the deck of cards, and found that he only had an eight. He wanted to exchange the cards, but Jiang Bai was watching him with a smile. He knew that he couldn't exchange them, because he knew that if he made any move, the other party would immediately notice.
Because his opponent's skill level was superior, he was certain that when the cards were dealt, he should have had a nine and his opponent an eight, but now it had changed; he had an eight and his opponent had a nine...
The only explanation is that the other party cheated before he could react, and it was so fast that he couldn't even notice.
He could only manage a wry smile and reveal his hand; he knew he had lost, losing four hundred million US dollars in one go.
"Damn it!"
After Jiang Bai won money, everyone in the room started cursing. Quan Xiangdong roared, "Haven't you found out who this person is yet? Even Asia's number one hand is no match for him. If he continues like this, should my Walker Manor be shut down immediately?"
"Have you found out who it is? If he doesn't have some powerful connections, I'll get him out here right now and tear him to pieces!"
"Um, boss, I'm afraid we can't..."
Just then, a voice rang out. The president of Walkerhill looked at Quan Xiangdong with a bitter face and said dryly, his face full of helplessness and bitterness.
"What's wrong?" Quan Xiangdong was stunned for a moment. Looking at the president he trusted so much in this state, he immediately had a bad feeling.
This person has been with him for decades and has seen all sorts of ups and downs, but there are very few things that could make him show this kind of expression.
Subconsciously, Quan Xiangdong knew that something bad had happened.
"We really can't deal with this guy the same way we deal with others. This guy... we can't afford to mess with him."
The president of Walkerhill Hotel, standing there, gave a wry smile, looked at his boss, and said this dryly.
Although he was unwilling to admit it, he knew that he had to say something, lest his boss do something rash in a fit of anger.
"Who is this?" Quan Xiangdong was stunned for a moment, somewhat confused, and his eyes began to quickly calculate the hidden meaning in the words of the president he had hired.
"Do you remember the one who publicly humiliated Mr. Lee Hyun-ki here a while ago?" The president of Walkerhill asked with a wry smile.
"Some time ago? You mean two months ago?" Quan Xiangdong was stunned for a moment and asked in surprise.
He has a very deep impression of the person who made things difficult for Lee Hyun-ki!
Lee Hyun-ki of the Four Star Enterprises Group, the local tycoon of South Korea and the number one of the three major conglomerates, was previously humiliated by someone here. How could Kwon Hyang-dong, the owner of Walkerhill Hotel, not know about this?
Chapter 615 Quan Xiangdong Wants to Surrender
This matter is not known to the average person, but Quan Xiangdong is a prominent figure in South Korea. He is one of the top three figures below the three major conglomerates, so he naturally knows more about it than others.
He knew what kind of crisis Lee Hyun-gi was facing at that time.
Afterwards, he conducted an investigation into Jiang Bai, and this troublesome guy from Tiandu is now definitely the most untouchable person in Southeast Asia.
Quan Xiangdong is considered a figure in South Korea, but his strength is still inferior to that of Mr. He.
Mr. He is actually slightly weaker than Yin Tianchou and Wang Zhenxu.
Yin Tianchou and Wang Zhenxu both died at Jiang Bai's hands, not to mention Khun Sa, who held considerable military power. These three were undoubtedly top-tier tyrants in Southeast Asia, yet they all died at Jiang Bai's hands.
This shows just how troublesome and vicious Jiang Bai from Tiandu is.
Jiang Bai himself was unaware that he was already famous and infamous outside.
"You mean, he's Jiang Bai?"
After listening to the president's words and thinking about the main character in this matter, as well as Jiang Bai's relationship with Portugal, Quan Xiangdong's expression changed drastically, becoming quite ugly. After his lips twitched a few times, he asked the president of Walker, whom he had hired.
"Who else could it be but him? We just received news that he came from Jiangmen on Mr. He's private plane from Portugal. Last year, he was alone in Portugal and forced them into a corner, until they couldn't take it anymore and had to shut down Portugal."
"In the end, Mr. He used countless connections to plead for leniency before he finally settled the matter. It is said that he paid 1 billion in cash and 8% of the shares in Portugal before the matter was finally settled."
"I didn't expect them to come after us now. It seems to be related to our trouble-making trip to Portugal a while ago." With a bitter smile, the president of Walkerhill Hotel looked at his boss and said dryly.
Before this, when everyone was organizing to cause trouble in Portugal, he had told his boss, Quan Xiangdong, about Jiang Bai. He told him that Jiang Bai not only liked to meddle in other people's business, but was also extremely difficult to deal with. He had shares in Portugal, and if everyone went to cause trouble in Portugal, they might offend him.
Once you provoke him, it's hard to get out of trouble, but the boss didn't care.
What's there to say? Jiang Bai has plenty of other things to do. He's just a figurehead in Portugal. As long as they can cause trouble in Portugal, or even take over Portugal, and as long as Jiang Bai's interests are protected, I believe the other side won't say anything.
Unfortunately, things didn't go as planned, and we've attracted this huge trouble. Now, resolving it won't be so easy.
While they were talking, Jiang Bai had already turned his eight hundred million US dollars into two billion. The casino was silent as everyone crowded around to watch Jiang Bai's gambling game, and the table was piled high with chips of all sizes...
Quan Xiangdong finally couldn't hold back any longer. He sighed and said helplessly, "Stop at that table and ask Mr. Jiang to go upstairs. I want to talk to him."
"Yes!" Someone immediately went to do as Quan Xiangdong instructed.
Meanwhile, the CEO of Walkerhill Manor, who had spoken earlier, gave an awkward laugh, looked at his boss, and said in a low voice, "Boss, dealing with him won't be easy. This guy..."
"I know he's a real tyrant. If he hadn't come this time, fine, but since he's here, he's definitely going to take a bite out of us. I know all that, but do we have a choice now?"
"Can't you see? Our number one Asian hand is sweating profusely right now."
Quan Xiangdong gave a bitter smile and said dejectedly.
If his subordinate, Asia's top healer, could stop Jiang Bai, then he naturally wouldn't compromise.
Jiang Bai is fierce and wicked, but Quan Xiangdong is not someone to be trifled with. Without reason, the other party cannot swallow him whole unless the other party is unreasonable and resorts to force.
But if that's the case, not only will he step forward, but others will also join in, and the South Korean government won't stand idly by. Jiang Bai is powerful, but he can't fight against a government.
However, they came to gamble, and Quan Xiangdong runs the casino. He has no reason to stop them from winning money.
When you open your door to do business, you can't only be allowed to lose and not win, right?
When others win money, all he can do is close down or compromise. What else can he do?
He might have used unconventional methods to deal with others in the past. In fact, he had done so quite often before. It wasn't just him; it was a common tactic used by some big shots all over the world.
However, this matter clearly doesn't apply to Jiang Bai; it's not that he doesn't want to, but that he can't! He dares not!
Therefore, the most straightforward approach now is to compromise with Jiang Bai.
As for Mr. He's debt, he will naturally find a way to settle it with him later.
Quan Xiangdong suffered such a huge loss that he couldn't just let it go in silence. He couldn't do anything about Jiang Bai, but those people in Portugal wouldn't let him get away with it unless they gave him an explanation.
Of course, this is something that will happen a long time from now, not now, because he doesn't want Jiang Bai to misunderstand that he is hostile towards him.
Soon, Jiang Bai was invited to Quan Xiangdong's office at Walkerhill Villa.
When he saw Jiang Bai, Quan Xiangdong wanted nothing more than to rush over and kill him, but he still put on what he considered to be the kindest and most genuine ingratiating smile and invited Jiang Bai to sit down.
He then instructed someone to pour him his treasured wine, and then said to Jiang Bai with a smile, "Mr. Jiang, there may have been some misunderstanding between us. I apologize for our rash actions and hope you can forgive us."
Undoubtedly, Quan Xiangdong adopted a very humble posture, even when facing Li Xuanji of the Four Star Enterprise Group, he would not have adopted such a humble posture, but he had no choice.
If people outside knew that Quan Xiangdong, who is known for his domineering nature, would actually show such an expression to someone, it would shock countless people.
"If apologies are useful, then does that mean everyone can make mistakes? I'm a very simple person. I believe that everyone in this world should pay the price for everything they do, and should be punished for making mistakes, rather than simply apologizing."
Jiang Bai responded indifferently.
The sky was already slightly bright. He had made quite a bit of money. He was a little tired, but in a good mood, and spoke more politely.
Before this, he could have easily refuted Quan Xiangdong with a single sentence.
Of course, even now, people don't speak so politely.
"Of course, mistakes should be punished, that's only right. We know that the price Portugal offered for Mr. Jiang to invest was eight percent. Before I met you, I discussed it with the shareholders, and we can also offer eight percent of Walkerhill's shares for you to invest."
"I wonder if this kind of apology is sincere?"
Chapter 616 Sweep
Quan Xiangdong is undoubtedly very sincere.
Jiang Bai's previous behavior was enough to make Quan Xiangdong realize that Jiang Bai was not so easy to deal with; an apology was not enough, and Jiang Bai needed real money.
Therefore, he made these conditions to Jiang Bai.
This was the price Jiang Bai had to pay to get Jiang Bai to compromise.
"Haha, Quan Xiangdong is indeed a remarkable person. I like you, and I think we can become friends in the future. However... I don't want your 8% stake. I want you to offer a premium to raise 20 billion RMB for me. How about that?"
"Two hundred billion?"
Quan Xiangdong was stunned for a moment. Two hundred billion Chinese dollars was a lot of money. Jiang Bai won two billion US dollars today, which was about 17 billion Chinese dollars. It had almost emptied the cash reserves of their entire Walkerhill Estate.
He doesn't have the capacity to immediately provide another 20 billion.
Of course, he was more than happy to accept this suggestion.
The shares Jiang Bai wanted could be sold for over 20 billion yuan now, and someone would be willing to pay that much. Given Huake's market value, exchanging 20 billion yuan for 8% is definitely worthwhile.
The problem is, he has no one to rely on right now.
"Two hundred billion? We don't have that much cash right now. You know, you won a lot before. After exchanging it with you, we..." Quan Xiangdong said with some bitterness.
"That's easy. I owe Li Qingdi, the Dragon of the Capital, a lot of money. Tomorrow, have someone contact them and help me repay 20 billion. Set a time for the payment to be made in full. I'll have someone accompany you to collect the debt documents."
"From now on, this debt will be between you and them. Of course, before you pay off the debt, you will need to pledge those shares as collateral. How about it? If you agree, I guarantee that I will not interfere in your affairs with Portugal in the future, and our feud will end here."
"I, Jiang Bai, will never cause you or Hua Ke any trouble again."
Jiang Bai put forward his conditions. He was currently in debt and had earned over 20 billion in the past few days, but he would not use that money for the time being. He planned to first repay the compensation he had received from Hua Ke to Li Qingdi.
Li Qingdi borrowed around 40 billion, Hua Ke gave him 20 billion, he gave him 20 billion, and he still had more than 1 billion in cash, which was enough.
He still has other plundering to do.
"good."
After careful consideration, Quan Xiangdong soon gave his answer.
The two then stopped talking about the matter. Quan Xiangdong treated Jiang Bai to breakfast and then arranged for someone to transfer the shares to Jiang Bai. He agreed that after he reached an agreement with Li Qingdi, Jiang Bai would personally transfer the shares to them.
Jiang Bai then took his leave.
When he left, Quan Xiangdong was heartbroken, but he still invited Jiang Bai to stay in South Korea for a few days, saying that he would personally entertain him.
Unfortunately, Jiang Bai rejected the suggestion, simply telling the other party, "I have other things to do, I need to visit a few other companies, I can't linger here too long, let's talk about it another time."
After saying that, he strode away, leaving Quan Xiangdong and several of his confidants looking at each other in bewilderment.
"Boss, what does he mean by this?" someone asked, looking bewildered.
"What do you mean? Do you even need to ask? This guy wants to find all the guys involved in that incident. We're just the first one." Quan Xiangdong said with a bitter smile.
He was initially feeling somewhat unbalanced and angry, even to the point of feeling heartbroken.
Jiang Bai won and took away nearly 40 billion from him in one night, reducing his net worth by a quarter.
It would be strange if he were doing well. Although the amount allocated to him personally is only 10 billion, with the rest shared equally among the shareholders, he is still not feeling good.
Now, hearing Jiang Bai say he's going to cause trouble for others, Quan Xiangdong felt a little better for some reason.
"Then...should we notify the other families? Just in case they get..."
Upon hearing this, a trusted confidant quickly asked a probing question.
Before he could finish speaking, Quan Xiangdong sneered, "Notify them? Why should I notify them? My Walkerhill Manor was the first to suffer, I lost a full 40 billion RMB, and now you want me to notify them? Dream on!"
"Everyone pitched in together, why should I be the only one to suffer?"
"Besides, in our line of work, can we just close down like that? If we really close down, how will we do business in the future? Even if they find out, what can they do? Do you think they would dare to lay a hand on this devil? If they dare, then I, Quan Xiangdong, truly admire them!"
His words left those around him speechless, exchanging bewildered glances.
Everyone is evenly matched, and even if there are some differences, they are not significant. If his boss, Quan Xiangdong, can't afford to offend this person, then no one else can either.
So what's the point of notifying them or not?
Eight hours later...
Genting Casino, Malaysia.
"Mr. Jiang, this is your check. It's money we borrowed from our shareholders and the government. Please keep it safe. We guarantee to cash it immediately."
A middle-aged man, accompanied by a group of people, stood bitterly at the door and respectfully addressed Jiang Bai, handing him a check as he spoke.
Jiang Bai smiled and accepted a check for 20 billion Chinese yuan and 10 billion yuan in gambling funds from their boss, Galbani, before walking away.
The Genting Casino staff were left with bitter expressions.
Thirteen hours later...
Tushan, Nanyue
"You Tushan people are quite sensible, but this is pointless. I only won 400 million yuan from you and you already recognized me? Oh well, what can I do? Remember, transfer your 20 billion to the Tiger King of Southern Xinjiang. I will communicate with them."
Jiang Bai stood at the entrance of the Tushan Casino and berated their high-ranking players.
I don't know what's wrong with these guys. I've only been here for less than an hour, and I haven't even had a chance to really wreak havoc, yet they've already discovered me.
They forcibly invited him over and demanded shares, leaving him with no choice but to take the money and leave.
Before leaving, Jiang Bai offered some criticism with dissatisfaction.
If everyone's like this, and they all find out so early, how can he continue playing?
Damn it!
Twenty-two hours later...
Sydney Casino, Oceania.
Jiang Bai stormed out of the Sydney casino, muttering as he walked, "Those bastards! How did they find out who I was at the last minute? They almost attacked me! They didn't give me a chance! What bastards!"
"Or, I could try to squeeze some money out of them."
He spoke and cursed as he walked away, leaving behind a group of executives with bitter expressions, silent and speechless.
Thirty-three hours later...
Sun City, South Africa
Jiang Bai entered the casino, where he leisurely and freely carried out his revenge...
Chapter 617 Excitement! Finally, someone's making a move!
Jiang Bai entered the luxurious casino hall of Sun City, then found a place to sit down with great interest and began his conquest.
Unsurprisingly, Jiang Bai won again.
Just like the previous Asian number one hand player of Walkerhill, the world's number one baccarat player, the world's number one dice player of Tushan, and the world's number one mahjong player of Yunding, the master of Sun City, who was known as the world's number one blackjack player, was also defeated by Jiang Bai at the gambling table.
In two hours, Jiang Bai massacred the Sun City, defeating all their experts, and then swept away 1.5 billion US dollars.
When Jiang Bai defeated the top expert of Sun City, seeing his opponent drenched in sweat, Jiang Bai didn't rush to change tables. Instead, he sat there quietly smoking, waiting for the higher-ups of Sun City to come and negotiate with him.
Instead of the high-ranking officials from Suncity he had imagined, he was greeted by seven or eight burly black men in suits and ties who surrounded Jiang Bai.
One of them walked over, pulled out a dark pistol, pressed it against Jiang Bai's waist, and said coldly, "Sir, please come with us."
"What... does this mean?" Jiang Bai was stunned for a moment, somewhat bewildered.
He had easily swept through several companies before, but after they found out his identity, they all came to him one by one, offering him shares or money, asking him to leave, and paying a heavy price. They were all very respectful, practically offering their faces for Jiang Bai to trample on.
Now look what's happened. We haven't even won much yet, and the other side has already come knocking on our door. And to make matters worse, they've already come knocking on our door.
They didn't come to say nice things to me; it seems like they're going to use guns?
how?
Want to use some unconventional methods on yourself?
Jiang Bai expressed his speechlessness and anger, but deep down, instead of being embarrassed and angry, he was actually eager to try.
The previous four families were too cowardly. After recognizing him, they didn't even have the intention to fight. Instead, they were very respectful and polite, saying all sorts of nice things to see him off. This made Jiang Bai very unhappy.
If no one resists, where is the fun in it?
If everyone does it this way, then it's pointless for Jiang Bai to keep making these trips.
It's interesting when there's struggle and resistance!
More importantly, if you resist, I'll feel comfortable extorting money from you. If you don't resist and even give me gifts, then I'm not the kind of vicious villain who would really make you half-dead, right?
Therefore, Jiang Bai's first reaction to this situation was not anger or embarrassment, but rather a strange excitement.
"Can I exchange my chips before I leave?" Jiang Bai stood up, raised his hand, and asked.
"Hey, is there any point in changing it or not?"
Jiang Bai's words elicited a cold laugh from the person behind him, who felt that what Jiang Bai was saying was meaningless.
Jiang Bai glanced at the chips on the table, then at the people in front of him, speechless. These bastards are too greedy!
Does this mean that not only will they not give you any benefits to get rid of you, but they will also take back what you have won?
They're even darker than the triads!
"Alright, where shall we go?" Jiang Bai stood up helplessly, raising his hands as if to surrender.
"Just follow along."
The other party coldly uttered these words, and then Jiang Bai was led away from there.
Jiang Bai did not resist at all. Although some people around him showed surprise, no one said anything.
Soon, they arrived at an office upstairs.
At this moment, a brown-haired white man with obvious Anglo-Saxon ancestry sat in his office with his legs crossed, flanked by two large black men standing on either side of him.
Jiang Bai was seated opposite him and forced to sit down by the two men.
"You won quite a bit today? What methods did you use?"
The other party immediately asked Jiang Bai what methods he used, as if they were convinced that Jiang Bai had cheated.
This made Jiang Bai somewhat unhappy, and he said unhappily, "I don't have any special skills, I just got lucky."
"Good luck? Good luck to win for so long? You haven't lost even once since you walked in. You're telling me it's just good luck? Do you think I'll trust you?" The other person sneered and said disdainfully.
After saying this, the two black men standing next to Jiang Bai immediately pointed their pistols at Jiang Bai's head. One of them said coldly, "Kid, you'd better confess quickly, or I'll kill you."
"What does this mean? Does your Sun City only allow people to lose, but not to win? There's no such rule in this world!"
Jiang Bai responded with dissatisfaction.
He hated it most when people pointed guns at his head, and for that reason alone, Jiang Bai had every reason to keep fighting with them.
Unlike the other Southeast Asian countries that are afraid of his power and influence and dare not provoke him at all, Sun City in South Africa is too far away from Southeast Asia.
This means that even if these guys knew who they were, they probably wouldn't care about anything.
Jiang Bai was gambling here, and another reason why he was excited to see the other party causing him trouble was that the five of the top ten casinos in Asia were easier to deal with, but the other five were not so easy to mess with. They were too far away from him, and Jiang Bai couldn't go around causing trouble for each of them. So what he needed to do now was to establish his authority.
He needed to intimidate everyone else so he could continue his tax-collecting journey and extract large sums of money from them.
Jiang Bai's original goal was the next stop, but now that these people have come to him, Jiang Bai naturally won't be polite.
Although he was still trying to reason with them, he was already plotting how to subdue these guys and give them a huge warning so that they wouldn't dare to act recklessly in his presence in the future.
"There's no such rule in the world, but this is Sun City, and we make the rules here. I'm convinced you've cheated. Although we haven't figured out exactly what method you used, you've definitely cheated!"
"Just for that, I could kill you!"
The other party responded coldly, dismissing Jiang Bai's words with disdain.
He had done such things before. In such a turbulent place as South Africa, Sun City has been able to establish itself here and maintain stability and prosperity for so many years. Who knows how much bloodshed and evil it has gone through.
So killing someone was just an everyday occurrence for him.
"So, you're planning to kill me?" Jiang Bai asked with amusement, crossing his legs.
He really wanted to know what this guy was planning to do to him.
Chapter 618 Here's 20 million, leave immediately.
Before coming here, Jiang Bai had also investigated this Satas.
The descendants of early immigrants, though their families fell into poverty and they grew up in slums, built their fortunes from scratch to where they are today, becoming wealthy during turbulent times and subsequently founding Sun City.
He is now considered one of the giants in the gambling industry and wields considerable influence throughout South Africa. I've also heard that he has good relations with indigenous warlords in several neighboring countries. He's a typical ruthless figure.
Living on this land, the people who deal with it most often are warlords and mercenaries. The constant warfare that plagues the surrounding areas has made the people here somewhat fierce, and Satas is one of the fiercest among them.
I heard that this person is unreasonable and takes pleasure in killing.
However, most of these are hearsay; no one has actually seen Satas kill anyone. Perhaps he did, but his bones are long gone and buried somewhere.
Jiang Bai didn't think the person in front of him was a cruel and unscrupulous guy.
In fact, Jiang Bai had studied this person before coming and found that he was not as cruel and irrational as the rumors suggested; on the contrary, he was very intelligent.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to get to where he is today.
That's why Jiang Bai was very curious about what this person was planning to do.
Do you really want to kill yourself, or are you just trying to scare yourself?
"Although I don't know how you cheated, I'm certain you cheated. My usual practice for anyone who dares to cheat here is to feed them to the dogs."
"You're very lucky. My people still haven't figured out how you cheated, which allowed you to win 2.5 billion US dollars!"
"However, you're too greedy. You've won so much money, yet you still don't know how to leave. I have no choice but to invite you over."
"Although this breaks the rules I originally set at the casino, the amount is so large that it's worth changing the rules. I'll give you a choice... Either I have someone take you out and kill you to feed the dogs, or you leave now. But don't even think about taking a single penny of the money you won with you!"
Satas looked coldly at Jiang Bai in front of him and said this without any room for negotiation, simply asking Jiang Bai to choose between two options.
"What if I don't choose either?" Jiang Bai chuckled, finding it amusing rather than frightening.
As he said this, the expressions of the people around him changed drastically. Several thugs pulled out their pistols and pointed them at Jiang Bai's head, as if they would shoot him immediately at the first command of Satas, sending Jiang Bai to meet the King of Hell.
Just then, a sexy white female secretary walked in, glanced at Jiang Bai, and then walked directly to Satas's side without saying a word. She handed Satas a document, whispered something in his ear, glanced at Jiang Bai, and then left.
Jiang Bai knew that the other party was definitely investigating him, and now it seemed that the investigation results were in.
Jiang Bai was very curious about what the other party would do.
"Mr. Jiang, it's you… I was wondering who dared to come to Sun City to cause trouble. Turns out you're a big shot. No wonder you have such confidence."
"But this is South Africa, this is Sun City, this is my territory. Do you think this is the capital of China?"
"How dare you come here and cause trouble? Aren't you afraid I'll kill you?"
Satas spoke coldly to Jiang Bai, his attitude not changing much because of Jiang Bai's status and power.
Just as Jiang Bai himself thought, South Africa is too far from China. Jiang Bai has energy, connections, and influence in China, but he can't use them here.
As for gunmen, they might be a considerable force elsewhere, but here?
It was a complete joke.
You used gunmen, while they used the military, including mercenaries and the local military.
According to Jiang Bai's own understanding, this Satas had a very good relationship with the South African military. In this country rife with corruption, high-ranking military officials often used their subordinates' violent organs to earn some extra money for themselves.
Therefore, Jiang Bai's idea of dealing with this guy in front of him, relying on a few hundred gunmen, is a joke, because he is likely to face an enemy several times his size. He has pistols, rifles and other weapons of various lengths, while the enemy has airplanes, cannons and tanks.
How do I fight?
Can you beat them?
Therefore, Satas's reaction was within Jiang Bai's expectations.
"Kill me? We'll see if you have the ability!"
Jiang Bai is no pushover either. His current achievements and influence are secondary; the most fundamental reason is his terrifying personal combat power.
His presence here is his biggest trump card and killer move.
"I know Mr. Jiang is a formidable figure, but we don't have any major conflicts. Our previous competition with Portugal was purely a business matter, and I hope you won't interfere."
As he spoke, Satas took out a checkbook from his pocket, wrote something down, and handed it over, saying, "Here is twenty million US dollars. Consider it a reward for Mr. Jiang's hard work in running this errand."
"I hope that after receiving this money, Mr. Jiang will leave this place, and all our previous grievances will be wiped clean."
Satas's casual words left Jiang Bai somewhat bewildered.
What does this mean?
Twenty million?
Are you just going to let yourself off the hook?
Does that mean you're not going to keep what you won before?
Jiang Bai was both angry and amused. He had seen plenty of arrogant and domineering people, and plenty of madmen, but this was the first time he had ever seen someone so arrogant.
Does this guy think he's a beggar?
"What if I refuse?" Jiang Bai asked noncommittally, his eyes flickering, sometimes bright and sometimes dim.
"Refuse? Well, I'm sorry, Mr. Jiang, I'm afraid you won't be able to leave here today!" Satas was taken aback at first, then said with a gloomy expression.
He felt he had already given Jiang Bai a lot of face. Knowing Jiang Bai's identity, the fact that he was willing to give him 20 million US dollars as a settlement was already quite generous. If it were anyone else, they would have been killed long ago.
Why would I waste time talking nonsense here?
Why give money?
It's only because Jiang Bai has some influence and is rumored to have considerable fighting power that he's willing to give him face!
"I know what you're thinking, thinking about all the money you won before?"
"You should know that I'm not giving you that money. It's not twenty-five million, it's twenty-five billion! Twenty-five billion US dollars! Do you know what that can do?"
"That's an astronomical figure, enough for me to make profits here for six months or even longer. Two and a half billion US dollars is enough to support me to overthrow a small country. You know, in Africa, even launching a military coup wouldn't cost that much money!"
Chapter 619 Grandson, watch this!
Now that things have come to this point, Jiang Bai isn't stupid; he understands that the other party is planning to renege on their debt and not pay.
He can take the money and leave if he wants; otherwise, they'll take action against him.
"So, you're planning to make a move against me?" Jiang Bai asked with interest.
It had been a long time since anyone had spoken to him like that, and he was somewhat unaccustomed to it.
When was the last time someone spoke to me like that?
It seems like it was back when I hadn't made it big yet, right?
It's been so long that Jiang Bai's memory is a bit hazy.
"That depends on Mr. Jiang's choice."
Satas glanced at Jiang Bai in front of him, then reached out and someone behind him immediately handed him a top-quality Cuban cigar. He lit it, took a puff, exhaled thick smoke, and looked at Jiang Bai with a mocking expression.
He was certain that Jiang Bai had no power here.
"Hehe, good, very good. You bunch of bastards have been causing trouble in Portugal. I've contacted several companies, but they're all cowards. Not one of them dares to challenge me. I've been bored to death all day. Finally, I've met an interesting one!"
Jiang Bai's reaction, however, was beyond Satas's expectations.
Jiang Bai stood up and laughed heartily, his face full of joy and without a trace of anger. This made Satas feel a little confused, not understanding what Jiang Bai meant.
However, he quickly understood, because after laughing, Jiang Bai turned on him faster than turning the pages of a book. His expression instantly became cold and sinister as he coldly stared at Satas in front of him, narrowing his eyes as he said, "Do you know that if I wanted to, I could kill you right now!"
"You're definitely not the first person to talk to me like that. Many people have told me to die, but in the end, they were the only ones who ended up as corpses."
Satas was not to be outdone. He was also a powerful figure who had been through thick and thin, and had experienced countless storms. How could he be intimidated by Jiang Bai's words?
Moreover, this is his territory, and he has absolute confidence in his power and ability.
"A question!" Jiang Bai suddenly spoke up, not turning hostile or surrendering as Satas had imagined, but asking a question out of curiosity.
"Hmm?" This surprised Satas, who subconsciously hummed in response, somewhat puzzled.
"I know that Suncity has no other shareholders and belongs to you alone. Of course, I am aware that some high-ranking government officials have secretly taken some shares here, but we can exclude them. Suncity can be said to belong to you alone. So here is the question: do you have a son?"
"No sons, but do you have daughters? Anyway, I know you don't have a wife!"
Faced with Jiang Bai's question, Satas's expression changed drastically. He narrowed his eyes, looked at Jiang Bai, and said coldly, "What do you mean?"
"Haha, so you mean you've got it? That makes things easier. I'm worried that if I kill you, there will be no one to inherit Sun City. If I try to extort you, it will be troublesome if I can't find anyone."
Jiang Bai laughed heartily, then rushed out, heading straight for Satas.
The bodyguards beside Satas immediately opened fire. They were all seasoned veterans who reacted as soon as Jiang Bai moved.
Unfortunately, they were too slow. By the time they fired, Jiang Bai had already rushed over. In just a few moves, the bodyguards inside screamed and fell to the ground, lifeless. Satas was being choked by Jiang Bai.
"You... what do you want to do! If you kill me, you won't get out of here!" Satas threatened, holding his breath as Jiang Bai choked him painfully.
He was genuinely afraid that Jiang Bai would get rid of him.
Satas was filled with regret. He had heard that Jiang Bai was powerful, but he hadn't realized just how powerful he was.
He had thought that the bodyguards inside were all elites and armed, so no matter how powerful Jiang Bai was, he couldn't do anything to him. But now he realized he was wrong.
Eight of his most elite bodyguards were all dead in the blink of an eye, and he was now held in someone's hand, unable to move. Satas was filled with regret.
But he didn't kneel down and beg for mercy, or immediately give in, not because he couldn't save face.
For someone like him, face is nothing; preserving his life is always the top priority. The reason he didn't immediately back down but instead threatened Jiang Bai was his alternative means of protection.
Rather than immediately surrendering and begging for mercy, Satras felt that using concrete threats was more reliable.
"cut."
Jiang Bai dismissed this with disdain.
Jiang Bai casually pulled down the expensive silk curtain next to him, simply tied Satas up, and dragged him outside.
Despite Jiang Bai's eloquent words, he actually couldn't kill Satas.
It's not that we dare not, but that we cannot.
Even if this guy has an heir, killing him and waiting for his heir to take over is uncertain, and Jiang Bai doesn't have that much time to waste here.
His goal was simple: to teach Satras a lesson, and at the same time establish his authority in Sun City, letting others know what he had done there, thus paving the way for his future actions.
Of course, the ultimate goal is to squeeze a huge sum of money out of them.
As soon as they carried Satas out, the bodyguards and Satas's men in the casino immediately realized what was happening.
In fact, they reacted as soon as the gunshot rang out, rushed into the casino, and caused chaos in Sun City.
When Jiang Bai came down, the gamblers had already fled in panic, and at least a hundred gunmen surrounded Jiang Bai and Satas.
"There are at least a hundred gunmen here, and my men have definitely called the police. I have a good relationship with the military and the police. If I lose even a hair, you will never leave South Africa!"
"If you know what's good for you, let me go, and I might spare your life!"
"If things escalate, it won't do either of us any good!"
Satas wasn't too panicked. After being taken down by Jiang Bai, he looked at the scene around him, didn't turn his head, and coldly said to Jiang Bai.
Jiang Bai raised an eyebrow, not taking it seriously. He didn't care about such a threat. He was here to cause trouble and make things worse.
How could we possibly give up just because of a few words from Satas?
"Shouting? Threatening me? You little brat, watch this." Jiang Bai sneered, put Satas down, patted Satas on the shoulder, and walked past him into the crowd.
"Swish swish swish!"
The moment Jiang Bai stepped out, the sound of bullets being chambered echoed throughout the hall.
"Don't rush, I'll change my position before you fire. Otherwise, with so many of you firing, I'm not afraid, but I'll turn your boss into a swarm of bullets!"
Jiang Bai said with a smile, then took the initiative to walk out and walk to a position opposite to that of Satas.
