They felt this was their chance to make money. Why should they be controlled by Saint Lord Taichu? They saw no need for it at all. Saint Lord Taichu slowly made his way to the entrance of Starlight Casino. Many thugs stood outside, brandishing sabers, spears, and clubs as they put on a show. Their expressions were exceedingly stern.
Of course, everything Saint Lord Taichu wore was extraordinarily expensive. Most of his clothes cost nearly three hundred taels of gold each, far beyond what ordinary people could afford. Once they saw Saint Lord Taichu's financial strength, they immediately became more slick and accommodating. A young man brought over a cup of tea.
He came before Saint Lord Taichu and said, "Come, come, sir, please head inside. Starlight Casino has an incredible variety of gambling games, with countless ways to play. You definitely won't be disappointed after you come in. And most importantly, do you know what that is?"
"Most importantly, if you lose money, we will never violently collect your debts. But if you win, we will send someone to personally deliver the money to your home. So hurry inside. We'll definitely give you a whole new experience." Ordinary people might very well have fallen for what the young man said.
But for an old hand like him, all that messy sales talk was nothing more than a bluff, completely meaningless. Saint Lord Taichu took out thirty taels of gold and placed them in the young man's hand. He said, "This is for your tea."
"Consider it a tip as well. Take it properly. Once I go in, I'm going to gamble big. I never bother with small stakes. Also, what's the most exciting game you have here?"
When these underlings saw Saint Lord Taichu arrive, they were immediately overjoyed.
