C1197 Profit Self-supplement
Demon! That Chinese man must be the reincarnation of a demon!
Ramón had no idea how he'd gotten out of Carlin's Casino. After two bottles of old vodka, he felt dizzy. What made him even more dizzy was that the change in attitude between Lin Bai and his opponent was simply like a completely different person!
At the beginning, he had thought that the other party was feeling guilty for showing ill intentions towards him, which was why he had treated him like this.
However, he soon realized that the reason why the man changed his attitude was not because of guilt. It was because of his words, 'As for the benefits, we can talk about them slowly'. However, at that time, having just experienced the threat of the Dharma Idol, even if it was due to benefits, the other party's choice to change his attitude was a huge concession.
But to his surprise, after his attitude had changed, Lin Bai was even more fearsome than the furious Lin Bai from back then. Lin Bai was only a tiger when he was angry, but Lin Bai, who was smiling and urging him to drink, was a hungry wolf that ate people without spitting out their bones.
However, it was too late when he found out the real intentions of the other party. The two bottles of aged vodka were like bitter wine brewed by him, and he could only pour them all down his throat. Moreover, he had not expected the other party's appetite to be so astonishing, and his perception to be so frightening. With just a few words, he had already figured out the bottom line that he could promise.
After he had tested his limits, Conveniently clenched his teeth and did not loosen his grip. He even pretended to be drunk and pulled out his Dharma Idol, playing the role of a tiger that could shake the mountains.
No matter how unwilling he felt, no matter how upset he felt deep inside, Ramón still agreed to all of Lin Bai's conditions. After the sobering up of the wine, after calculating the benefits those conditions would bring to the other party, Lei Meng felt that this trip of his was actually like sending a fat lamb into the wolf's mouth.
The wager had to be made for Lin Bai, whether it was the picture jar with the blue and white flowers, or the head of the beast, and he had even dug the relationship between the Venetian casino and the American authorities out of his own mouth, taking away from him twenty percent of the Venetian's annual bonus. Of course, his little secrets with Charlie were not hidden.
The worst thing was, he didn't know whether he had been possessed by a ghost or if he had been completely muddled by the yellow broth, but he had actually promised to let the other party in and out of the United States of America. As long as he didn't make any actions that would cause panic, he wouldn't need to report to the ninth region; and the ninth region wasn't allowed to take even half a step into China!
He had lost his power! Under the influence of the cold sea breeze from Macao, these were the only four words in Ramón's mind! He could almost imagine himself returning to the 9th region and facing the upper echelons, telling them the conditions he and this Chinese youth had agreed on. What kind of angry words would those arrogant old guys use to attack him?!
However, every time he thought of it, the gigantic Dharma Idol hovering above the private box, scanning him with its emotionless eyes like a god looking down at the mortal world, and the secret Lin Bai had told him. Ramón felt that his offer wasn't as unprofitable as he had imagined. In fact, he was the one who had taken advantage of the deal.
Human public enemy! He never expected that the secret Lin Bai told him would be so shocking.
When he thought about how he drank with the demon that had robbed the Vatican of the Holy See and caused the Pope to pass away and then mysteriously disappear from the world's attention, he felt goosebumps rising all over his body. If he hadn't had the courage to drink alcohol, his legs would have gone soft and he would have kneeled down in front of this young man.
The panic it had caused in Europe had attracted the attention of many mysterious departments from other countries. Even in the 9th region, they had sent countless manpower and resources to Europe to search for clues about the mysterious man.
At that time, everyone thought that this mysterious person had perished together with the Pope, but they had not imagined that he would actually live in such a carefree and unrestrained manner, and that his ability was even several times stronger than in the past!
He was very clear that as long as this young man was still in China, the 9th region would have no way to fight him. Especially when this young man had dared to risk the world by causing a public enemy of humanity! He just had to figure out how terrifying the anger would be if they angered him. When that happened, the entire United States would probably be in a state of unrest!
"He's the same person as me, I want to stay here …" Charlie's face was still lifeless. He did not understand why the expression on Ramón's face would not stop changing.
"My dear brother, I swear to God, he is not like you!" Ramón muttered to Charlie in a exasperated and amused manner. He could not help but turn his head to look at Carlin Casino behind him. After a while, he muttered to himself, "We still have to stay here for a period of time. If we don't take out something believable, how could those old guys believe me!"
In contrast to the two brothers who were facing the sea breeze, their sorrowful looks were replaced by a blissful one.
"There's really a boy for you to eat that fellow, Ramón. You didn't give him any leeway at all!" He Hongyan looked at the calm Lin Bai and said with a wry smile, "I think you should go to the foreign affairs office and bring you along if there's any negotiations. Even if the other party is an iron rooster, you can pull all their hair off them."
"Elder He is too kind!" Lin Bai laughed as he shook his head, "Being able to negotiate with him so smoothly, it's not because I want to, it's because he fears my strength! "Only if you are strong enough can you give a strong enough condition!"
He Hongyan nodded slightly when he heard this, but couldn't help but sigh. He was an old man from that chaotic era, how could he not know how accurate Lin Bai's words were? There was no diplomacy between weak nations, and naturally no advantage could be gained from having weak fists between people. Only by ensuring one's own strength would one be able to stand proudly in this world.
"Just now, I kept listening to that Lei Meng speak. Why does his brother, Charlie, look so dazed? But when you were playing cards, Ramón seemed to be in the lead. Furthermore, what exactly is the matter that caused him to be able to win? " Li Qiushui had an innocent and naive personality, so how could she care about these things? She was only curious about Charlie's unusual behavior.
"He doesn't look stupid, but he is a fool." After a moment of silence, Lin Bai slowly let out a sigh. He looked at the dome of the cavern, seemingly sighing as he muttered to himself, "If the Heavens give a normal person something they do not possess, they will take it back from them. Maybe this is the way of the heavens! "
Li Qiushui was stunned upon hearing this. Her face was full of suspicion. She didn't understand how a fool could have such a strange method!
In fact, just like Li Qiushui was thinking at the moment, when Lin Bai found out about Charlie from Lei Meng, he was also flabbergasted. The reason why Charlie had been able to win all his matches at the gambling table was because he could sense the movements of the minds of those he had set up through his eyes. Although he did not interfere, he could deduce what the other party wanted to do.
Not only that, Charlie was born with a mental fortitude that ordinary people could not hope to match. In fact, based on the tests in the ninth region, even the speed at which the computer calculated some math problems might not be able to surpass Charlie's. But who would have thought that such an incredible person would actually be a fool? According to what Lei Meng said, this might be a type of talent!
"It's one thing for others to say that the Heavenly Dao is unprofitable, but from your mouth, I don't believe it at all!" Old He bet on everything that Lin Bai said. He laughed loudly and said, "Look at the power, wealth, beauties, and abilities around you! There are only a few people in this world who can surpass you. To be honest, at times, even I myself wonder if you are from the same race as us! "
When Lin Bai heard this, he could not help but laugh, but his brows revealed traces of worry. As Hong Yan said, the things that he possessed had already surpassed many people on this world. Rather than calling it the love of the heavens, it would be more accurate to say that his luck was too good.
If something happened to him, it would be even more serious than what Charlie had paid to obtain those talents! For this, he would have to work even harder!
