234: Heavy gambling is harmful to your health
Although the severe pain coming from his foot made him wince, it didn't hinder the ecstasy in Ye Su's eyes in the slightest.
"As long as I guess the number correctly, I can double the income brought in by information for that day!"
After reading the skill description for "Gambling for Fun" several times, Ye Su's breathing quietly quickened a bit, though he didn't know if it was from the pain in his foot or from being too excited.
"I can activate the skill once every day; this "Lucky Dice" could bring in at least ten million in extra revenue a year!"
He had already prepared himself mentally that the "Mysterious Surprise Item" would be very "surprising," but Ye Su never expected that this "surprise" would be fucking surprising!
Ye Su calculated based on the most objective probability: for every six times he guessed the number, only once would be correct, which would still mean five rewards of doubled information revenue a month.
Not to mention that the information will continue to upgrade later, just calculating based on the current Level 3 information.
One piece of information is worth about 200,000, so that's an extra million a month, which is twelve million a year!
As the system continues to upgrade, this number will rise linearly, and adding tens of millions a year won't be a problem.
Before, Ye Su felt that the "Working Cat" waving its hand to earn over 200,000 a month was already heaven.
Now that he had calculated the revenue the "Lucky Dice" could bring, Ye Su instantly felt that the waving cat in the safe didn't seem as appealing anymore.
[Host's daily information revenue details:]
[Working Cat: 12,600 yuan]
[sunscreen clothing: 52,038 yuan]
"Huh!"
Looking at the "information revenue details" calculated by the system, Ye Su was a little surprised.
"The "Working Cat"'s revenue can be counted too? And I haven't even collected today's revenue yet. Brother System is pretty good."
Ye Su rubbed the "Lucky Dice" in his hand, feeling a bit hesitant: "Should I try it now?"
Looking at the time, it was already eight o'clock. He estimated that even if more orders for the "sunscreen clothing" were confirmed, it wouldn't add more than ten thousand or so.
Ye Su was truly itching to try it and decided not to wait any longer: "Give me a [6]!"
Ye Su cupped the dice between his hands, blew into them, and shook them repeatedly before finally letting go and tossing the dice onto the coffee table.
"6! 6!"
As the dice rolled around, Ye Su, like a desperate gambler, kept shouting the number he had bet on.
But good luck did not always stay by Ye Su's side.
After a flurry of movement, the dice finally settled steadily on the number [3].
"Ah!"
Missing out on over 60,000 yuan, Ye Su immediately let out a miserable cry of heartache.
"What kind of "Gambling for Fun" is this? This is clearly "Big Gambling Harms the Body"!"
Before tossing the dice just now, Ye Su hadn't felt much.
Now that the dice had landed and he hadn't guessed the number right, Ye Su realized just how stimulating the "Gambling for Fun" skill was.
Tossing one die determined over 60,000 in revenue; there aren't many people in Las Vegas who would play for stakes this high, right?
And this was just the revenue brought in by the "Working Cat" and the "sunscreen clothing."
If a money-making piece of information refreshes tomorrow morning, and he makes another 100,000 or 200,000.
Tossing the dice tomorrow night would involve over 200,000 in revenue!
Tossing the dice, if he won, he could buy half a house in his hometown. If it weren't a no-cost business, Ye Su wouldn't be able to afford to play such a big game!
"I must keep this dice safe. If I ever lose it, it would be even more miserable than losing 100 million."
After putting the dice into his pants pocket, Ye Su cleared the dice off the coffee table and locked the Patek Philippe back into the safe.
He casually cleared the [17876] on top of the "lucky cat," and then, humming a little tune, Ye Su drove back to Yunqi Garden.
When he opened the door, the house was pitch black, and Ye Su knew that Chen Xinyi hadn't returned from overtime yet.
"Working is really not easy. It's past eight o'clock and she still can't get off work; the boss is being a bit inhumane."
When saying this, Ye Su forgot how, when he activated the "Working Cat" a few days ago, he had been desperate for the "Working Cat" to wave its hand and earn money for him twenty-four hours a day.
After complaining, Ye Su went into the guest bedroom, hid the "Lucky Dice" in the ornament box on the desk, and then picked up his clothes to take a shower.
After showering, he turned on the computer to play games for a while. Around nine o'clock, Ye Su heard the sound of Chen Xinyi opening the door.
"You're back?"
Ye Su put down the mouse and keyboard and walked out of the room to show some concern.
"Ah!"
Chen Xinyi didn't respond, only letting out a mournful wail of a corporate slave, and collapsed onto the sofa with a "thud."
Probably finding her underwear too bothersome, Chen Xinyi skillfully reached her hands into her clothes to adjust them, and right in front of Ye Su, tossed the bra she pulled out to the side of the sofa.
"Ah—"
Having shed the day's constraints, Chen Xinyi let out a comfortable moan.
Having let her taste the sweetness last night, Ye Su wanted to keep up the good work tonight.
Now seeing Chen Xinyi in this state, Ye Su had to dismiss the thought and decided to give her a break tonight.
He had had a full meal at a rich person's house in the evening and had eaten bird's nest stewed with who-knows-how-much money in the afternoon, while the woman in front of him had just returned from a day of being a corporate slave.
His conscience pricked him, and Ye Su was uncharacteristically considerate: "Have you eaten? Do you want me to cook you some noodles?"
"Big brother, please be a human being. My life is already this bitter, can't you let me have a break!"
"Uh..."
Upon hearing this, Ye Su knew that this woman's mind had wandered, and she had driven the car onto the highway again.
"I meant actual noodles..."
"Oh." Chen Xinyi then realized she had misunderstood: "Having been with you for so long, even my thoughts have become dirty."
"Hey—"
Seeing Chen Xinyi still had the energy to shift the blame to him at a time like this, Ye Su wanted to take back his thought of letting her have a break.
"Are you eating or not? If not, I'm going back to my room."
Chen Xinyi shook her head: "Not eating. There's a meal allowance for overtime, I already had takeout for dinner."
"Alright then."
His remaining conscience exhausted, Ye Su no longer paid attention to this corporate slave and turned back to his room to continue the battle.
When falling asleep that night, Ye Su struggled a little, but in the end, he didn't go against his conscience and continue to make Chen Xinyi work overtime.
...
[Ding!]
As soon as it hit twelve o'clock, Ye Su waited for today's information.
[Today's information (Level 3): Under the large banyan tree in the center of the courtyard of the third columbarium building of the Ander Building, there is a buried jar of Yuan Shikai-style Jiāhé silver coins, with a total value of about 200,000 yuan.]
[hidden easter egg (Special skill reward): Because the location involved in the information is rather special, to avoid disturbing the rest of the deceased, this time we have specially unlocked the "Pluck things from thin air" skill for the Host.]
["Pluck things from thin air" skill description: As long as you are within a certain range of the information location, and no one is watching the Host, you can use the "Pluck things from thin air" skill. It will directly transfer the jar of Yuan Shikai-style Jiāhé silver coins from under the tree into the Host's hands. It is recommended that the Host prepare a container to hold the jar beforehand, so as not to attract others' attention after the skill is activated.]
