Arknights is too real, right?

Xia Feng, Nan Feng, and Puda were sitting in a quiet rest area in the corner of the casino. In the next half hour, Puda told Xia Feng about his experiences since coming to Victoria.

According to Puda, after they separated from Xia Feng, the two brothers came to Shengdi City.

Sunday City is a well-known coastal city in southern Victoria. Before coming here, they had inquired about the underground structure of Sunday City that has been controlled by the Haimen Gang for several years. There is no second gang in the city, and the main business of the Haimen Gang is It is shipping, and its external name is [Haimen Transportation Company]. The gang has a good reputation. On the other hand, the security in Shendi City is not that chaotic.

The biggest fear of doing business is the chaos of public security. Some money can be earned, but it is difficult to keep it. Apart from businessmen, the same is true for immigrants who carry large amounts of money.

If there are more than one group of gangs in a city, all kinds of overt and covert fights and competition for power will definitely make the city restless at night.

After the Platts brothers came to Shengdi City, they found that it was just like the news they had heard. There was only one gang, Haimen Gang, with good public security and beautiful scenery. They quickly fell in love with this city.

They had also saved a lot of money over the years when they were engaged in source stone processing in Colombia. Although they did not take it all with them when they ran away, they still had enough money to live for the rest of their lives. Prue directly bought a property in a beachside villa area. The brothers decided to live here.

They had money and a house. Although their life was not as good as before, it was still comfortable. The brothers lived like this for a few months.

However, people's mentality is sometimes like this. Life has obviously reached expectations, but as the saying goes, after a few months of living as retired cadres, the two brothers finally couldn't rest anymore.

In addition to the money to buy the villa, they still have a lot of money on hand. It is difficult to return to the old business. It requires the support of various forces and intelligence networks. The brothers do not want to take that risk anymore. After discussing it, , they want to do some serious business.

Over the years, the Platts brothers have traveled far and wide. In this closed world of information exchange, they know how profitable the business is, and because of their previous metallurgical experience, they are very familiar with all metal processing raw materials.

After discussion, they planned to engage in wholesale processing of raw materials.

After completing the market survey, they felt that this was a good business opportunity. There were many small factories in coastal areas, and their raw materials were shipped from the north. Because there were fewer orders, the price was high, and they did not dare to keep inventory. , the north-south transportation route is long, which means raw material shortages often occur.

The brothers thought for a while, if they collected all orders from all factories and used their own vehicles to transport them to reduce costs, they could not only meet the needs of small coastal factories, but also earn the price difference.

There are people doing this kind of business, but the market demand is still huge, and the two brothers with enough funds can definitely get a share of the pie. After confirming, Prue and Puda began to divide the work.

Brother Prue directly chose a piece of land in the suburbs, and went to the Industrial and Commercial Bureau to register a company, named Platts Trading Company.

And his younger brother Puda brought a large sum of money to Notting City, the trading hub city in the entire south, ready to contact the source of goods.

Having said this, Xia Feng couldn't help but ask.

Puda, where did you find the source of the goods?

Puda's expression was very depressed.

I found the largest trading chamber in Notting City, the Freddo Chamber of Commerce. I had a smooth conversation with one of their executives. They had channels for several raw materials we wanted because the quantities we wanted were relatively small. It’s big and I’m very satisfied with the price.”

When he heard about the Fredo Chamber of Commerce, Nan Feng, who was drinking coffee next to him, immediately became interested.

You found the Freddo Chamber of Commerce? What then?

Then.

Puda started talking again, and what happened next was the fundamental reason why he put on cleaning clothes and washed the toilet here.

After discussing the business with the Fredo Chamber of Commerce, the person in charge told him to sign the contract and pay the deposit tomorrow, and Puda immediately agreed readily.

Because he was considered a big customer, the executives of the Fredo Chamber of Commerce treated Puda to dinner that night. After they were full, they also arranged a so-called one-stop service.

It's a pity that this one-stop service didn't finish at all, but got stuck somewhere in the process.

After the executives of the Frido Chamber of Commerce treated Puda to a meal, they first went to the bar to drink some wine, and then took him drunkenly to the Frido Casino.

The business was settled, and Puda was naturally very happy. Coupled with the flattery of some professional public relations personnel nearby, Puda began to feel happy.

As a big boss, Puda certainly couldn't play small gambling games that were inconsistent with his status. After sitting in the VIP box in a daze, Puda directly took 300,000 chips.

300,000 chips was indeed a lot, but within half an hour, the 300,000 was flushed like a toilet, and everything was gone.

Puda lost all his money, but everyone in the box was in high spirits. In order to show the generosity of the big boss, Puda gritted his teeth and exchanged another 1 million chips.

In this way, with the help of alcohol, a huge gamble began in the VIP box.

In the first half of the night, Puda changed his chips several times. After losing a few big ones, he sobered up and worked hard, and he actually won a lot back.

Watching the chips in front of him pile up higher and higher, Puda exclaimed happily, and then his whole person seemed to enter a selfless mode. He felt like he had become the God of Gamblers. Business and other things were too ink, and he could win through gambling skills. The next golden mountain.

Throughout the night, Puda lost and won his chips, won and lost again, exchanged them again after losing them all, and won more and more when he exchanged them. He almost spent the whole night swimming in the ocean of money, not to mention how happy he was.

Like a dream, Puda was completely immersed in the dream of a billionaire.

However, the dream will eventually wake up.

A ray of sunshine in the early morning shines into the VIP box.

Place your bet!

Down!

Puda looked at the good hand he finally got and reached for the chips in front of him. However, all he touched was air.

The mountain of chips in front of him has been lost.

Change, give me another million!

When he wanted to continue exchanging chips, he found that all the money he had on him was gone. Throughout the night, in the alternation between losing and winning, he lost all the money he had.

This money is used to pay the deposit for the goods!

Puda sat at the gambling table in a daze. He couldn't even remember how he lost all the money he had. Because the amount was huge, the difference between winning and losing each time seemed small, but the accumulation gradually eroded him into a shell. .

Boss Puda? Boss Puda?

Facing the dealer's call, Puda raised his head blankly.

kindness?

Do you still want to place a bet?

I

A drop of cold sweat ran down Puda's face. He had lost all the money he used for business. If his brother found out about this, he would have to beat him to death!

But the matter has come to this, and he has no way to reverse it. No, wait, he seems to have another way.

That's right, that is to win back all the money you lost by continuing to gamble.

This is his only way to save him!

Xia Feng took a sip of coffee gently.

Then you lose all your pants?

Puda's old face turned red.

No, no, later I lied to my brother and said the deposit was not enough and asked him to transfer more money.

Oh? What happens next?

All lost again.

This is not the first time Xia Feng has heard of this kind of thing. In his original world, there were many news about families being destroyed due to gambling. However, no matter which world he was in, the greed in human nature was the same.

Xia Feng put down the coffee cup and sighed.

Aren't you a loser even if you call me a pantser? What else do you have besides a pantser?

No, I just lost all the start-up capital for our brothers' business, but we still had real estate at the time. Later, I stopped gambling and returned to Shendi City honestly.

A villa in Shendi City costs at least one million. Even if all the money is lost, life will not be like this.

Xia Feng continued to ask.

Then what did you do? Why did you clean the toilet? Even if you two sold the villa and lived in a small apartment, you wouldn't be like this.

Puda's expression changed from red to hopeless.

Something happened later.
