One Gold Brick Isn't Enough? Then Five.

"Brother Gao, do you have any money left? Lend me some, and I'll pay you back with interest once I win."

Zhang Qingyan shrank her neck, rubbed her hands, and pleaded in a low voice, embarrassed.

Although he used to gamble, he always knew his limits. If he lost everything, he would leave in disgrace and would never borrow money from others, much less from loan sharks in Gambling Dens.

Because he understood very well,

Once you borrow money at exorbitant interest rates, the nature of the loan changes.

Even if his parents doted on him, they would not hesitate to break his legs.

But today,

He really didn't want to embarrass himself in front of the Immortals.

Although he had already lost all face, he still wanted to salvage the situation a little.

Get out of my way, you good-for-nothing!

Gao Yunyi pushed away the large face that was leaning in with a look of disgust and slowly walked towards the gambling table.

With your unlucky streak of losing every gamble, even if you were given a mountain of gold and silver, you would eventually lose it all.

No wonder everyone calls you the Money-Giving Boy!

I think they should treat you like royalty, offering incense and bowing to you every day.

"Oh ho, you've found some help. It wouldn't happen to be the 'Spendthrift Girl' from the Spendthrift Boy's entourage, would it?"

"Hahaha..."

One person spoke, and the whole room burst into laughter.

Zhang Qingyan was immediately enraged.

You can laugh at me, but you can't laugh at my brother Gao.

The chief eunuch, standing in the shadows, remained silent, his gaze sweeping over the faces of everyone laughing present, then silently memorizing them.

Zhang Qingyan was about to rush over and cause trouble for these people

But Gao Yunyi raised his hand to block it.

What needs to be done at the gambling table should be resolved at the gambling table.

Although he could crush these people as easily as crushing a few ants...

But he wasn't the kind of cultivator who bullied the weak.

"Smack--"

A silver ingot was thrown onto the gambling table, landing on the word "small".

Ten taels of silver wasn't much, and none of the people present paid it any mind.

Then,

Everyone placed their bets on "Big," looking at Gao Yunyi and Zhang Qingyan with ambiguous smiles.

"Place your bets now, open, four, five, six, fifteen points big."

As the dealer opened the dice cup, everyone burst into laughter.

"As expected of the 'Spendthrift Girl,' I thought she had found some incredibly powerful expert."

"Just because you wear a mask doesn't mean you're God of Gamblers. Even Immortals aren't as good at pretending as you."

"Hahaha... This is hilarious!"

"..."

The atmosphere in the private room became cheerful again.

Zhang Qingyan's face turned pale with anger.

His fists were clenched so tightly that his knuckles turned white.

Seeing these mortals dare to humiliate Immortal is more painful than killing him.

If it weren't for Brother Gao stopping him, he would have fought those guys to the death.

The chief eunuch, hiding in the shadows, remained silent, but a cold glint flashed in his eyes.

Bang--

A gleaming gold ingot was tossed onto the gambling table, landing on the "small" card.

The laughter in the private room stopped immediately.

This gold ingot weighs a full ten taels and is worth a hundred taels of silver, and judging from its purity, it's probably worth even more.

You should know that ten taels of gold would be enough to buy a nice house elsewhere.

The private room was filled with sons of powerful and wealthy families; ten taels of gold was not much to them.

But they couldn't match the nonchalant, unflappable attitude of that masked young man.

"Since you insist on sending money so quickly, I'll grant your wish and continue betting big."

"I'm betting big too."

Me too.

So everyone placed all their bets on "Big" again, continuing to watch the show with amusement.

"Place your bets now, open! Three, five, six, fourteen points big!"

As soon as the dealer opened the dice cup, Gao Yunyi lost again.

"Thump--"

But before anyone could even laugh out loud, a gold brick slammed heavily onto the gambling table, making it rattle loudly.

The scene froze instantly, speechless.

The expressions on everyone's faces froze, and several people even involuntarily stood up from their chairs.

This is a gold brick, a gold brick as big as a brick!

Its value is far more than ten thousand taels of silver, yet it was thrown up like trash.

And where did you get that huge gold brick from?

Only then did everyone suddenly realize...

Zhang Qingyan, that spendthrift young master, didn't just invite a money-spending maiden; he clearly brought in a god of wealth!

Looking at the big gold brick with the word [small] on it, everyone began to hesitate.

Even the dealer standing across the gambling table showed a tense expression.

"I... I'll keep betting big."

"Then I'll bet big too."

"Don't be intimidated! I'm not easily frightened. Who's afraid of who?"

"..."

The gamblers, caught up in their gambling instincts, insisted on going against the odds, betting all their chips on "big".

After the purchase was completed...

A tense and oppressive atmosphere instantly filled the private room.

"Open, three, four, five, twelve o'clock big."

The dice cup was opened, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

They won again.

No matter how much money you have, you can still lose it all.

Do you think you can keep pulling out gold bricks? Do you really think you have mountains of gold and silver at home?

"Thump... thump... thump... thump... thump..."

Five large golden bricks were thrown on the gambling table as if they were free of charge, and even several holes were made in the word [small].

Everyone: "..."

It's a ghost!

Today was absolutely a ghost story.

Seeing the large gold bricks casually stacked together in front of them, everyone's eyes bulged out and their breathing became rapid.

The remaining seated people all stood up simultaneously.

The mocking and playful expressions on everyone's faces were gone, replaced by solemn respect and heartfelt admiration.

This is no longer gambling; it's blatant flaunting of wealth.

Today's high-stakes gamble, regardless of whether it ends in victory or defeat,

They will all become a legend in the casinos of Capital.

"Keep going."

Gao Yunyi remained expressionless throughout, spoke calmly.

"To witness the birth of a gambling legend today is worth it, even if I lose everything this time."

"Five huge gold bricks, tens of thousands of taels of silver! To witness such an incredible gamble, my life has been worthwhile! I'm betting everything!"

I'm betting everything on the big one.

Me too.

"Rock it."

"Shake it faster!"

"Boss, what are you standing there for? Does your Gambling Den not even have this much guts?"

"..."

Hearing the crowd urging him on, the head of the village was covered in sweat, and his hands were trembling uncontrollably.

Those five gleaming gold bricks were not wealth and glory to him, but rather a death knell.

Once he loses,

The Gambling Den would immediately go bankrupt.

And he will definitely be killed by the owner behind the Gambling Den.

He dared not shake the dice cup.

They didn't dare open the dice cup.

I stood there, frozen in place, trembling with fear, my soul pounding in my chest.

The unusual situation in the private room immediately alerted those outside.

Soon the Gambling Den owner entered with several tall, burly guards.

After learning what had happened,

The shop owner looked at Gao Yunyi in shock.

Then he respectfully cupped his hands and gave a deep bow.
