522: flattery
This is called 'praise to kill.' Qin Wei and Wang Ming were able to annex the Feng Family's property by using this method.
Of course, at that time, both of them were behind the scenes, so Feng Chen didn't know that the destruction of the Feng Family was their doing.
Otherwise, when Feng Chen saw him, he would probably have already started punching and kicking him.
Feng Chen was dizzy from the four words "Gambling King Tournament," and the smug look on his Face intensified.
He subconsciously patted the heavy gold bars in his arms, feeling as if his whole body was several pounds lighter, as if he had truly become the destined God of Gamblers.
"Gambling King Tournament?"
He raised an eyebrow, deliberately drawing out his words, feigning indifference, but the vanity in his eyes could not be hidden.
"It sounds somewhat interesting, but what are the stakes for this tournament?"
Feng Chen certainly wouldn't foolishly agree to be invited for no reason, especially since he had just earned so much money.
To be honest, Feng Chen had already thought about stopping; he planned to buy two houses, enjoy himself for a while, and then start a small business or something.
Of course, that was his immediate thought; whether he could achieve it later was another matter.
After all, I think ≠ I'm going to do it.
Watching Feng Chen act so pretentiously, Qin Wei sneered inwardly.
"He's still acting, damn it? He doesn't even know death is at his doorstep!"
Qin Wei cursed Feng Chen in his heart, but a faint smile still hung on his Face.
"The stakes are naturally generous. The champion will not only receive a box of gold bricks but also become an honorary shareholder of our casino!"
"In the future, you can gamble for free at all casinos in the city, and you can even get a cut of the money you win."
Qin Wei's words made Feng Chen incredibly excited. If he were to win this, wouldn't he be set for life, free from worries about food and drink? And he could gamble for free!
Moreover, the most important thing was that he could also get a share of the casino's profits. This casino didn't look big, but in reality, there were quite a few customers visiting every day!
This was the biggest casino in Qingfeng Town! Who knew how much money flowed through it every day!
Feng Chen couldn't help but swallow, already somewhat tempted, but he immediately spoke up.
After all, he still didn't know what Qin Wei was up to. He knew he wasn't very familiar with the other party.
There were many people who had won tens of thousands of silver here, but he had never heard of any of them being invited to this so-called Gambling King Tournament.
Although he loved to gamble, his mind was still clear.
"More importantly, this title is the only glory in the entire city. At that time, all the powerful figures in the town will come to observe the ceremony!"
"Young Master Feng, if you can win the top prize, who in this region wouldn't respect you a bit from now on?"
Seeing Feng Chen's slight hesitation, Qin Wei immediately started another line of persuasion.
He knew that for someone like Feng Chen, the most important thing was to show off. As long as they could display themselves in front of others, they would absolutely not miss the opportunity.
After all, before today, they were just gamblers, gamblers no one cared about!
Most people wouldn't refuse such an opportunity to show off in public, especially someone like Feng Chen, who had once been glorious but had now fallen.
"Boss, are your words true? Will all the powerful figures in town really come?"
Feng Chen's voice trembled when he said this. He didn't know what kind of power the people behind the casino had, but being able to run such a large casino, they must have some influence. They certainly had that much energy.
"Of course it's true! Would I lie to you?"
Qin Wei smiled kindly. With his status, no one in Qingfeng Town dared to disrespect him.
"Will the Lin Family... also come?"
Feng Chen couldn't help but ask.
What he cared about most was whether the Lin Family would come to this so-called Gambling King Tournament. After all, the Lin Family members were the ones who had looked down on him the most before.
He wanted to prove himself, he wanted to prove himself at the Gambling King Tournament, he wanted to win the top prize and show those Lin Family members!
"I, Feng Chen, am not those useless people! I am the Eldest Young Master of the Feng Family! I am the respected Young Master Feng!"
Feng Chen thought a lot in his heart, as if he had already secured his ticket to victory.
"The Lin Family..."
Qin Wei was slightly taken aback. He hadn't expected Feng Chen to ask this question, because the Lin Family, among the four great Families, did not participate in gambling-related activities.
However, Qin Wei suddenly thought that since his Lord was so powerful, it seemed there would be no problem in getting the Lin Family to participate.
"The Lin Family will naturally come. By then, all the powerful figures in our town will come, I guarantee it!"
Qin Wei said confidently.
Hearing this, Feng Chen smiled, a very happy smile.
"Good!"
Feng Chen suddenly slammed the table and stood up, the gold bars at his waist clinking with his movements.
"I'm participating in this Gambling King Tournament!"
Feng Chen said excitedly.
Qin Wei was startled by Feng Chen's excited gesture. What the hell, if you're participating, then participate, why slam the table? Anyone who didn't know would think you were going to fight me!
After cursing Feng Chen's long-lost parents a few times in his heart, Qin Wei's mood finally improved.
"Young Master Feng is truly straightforward! I will register you now. Please arrive promptly at noon (11-13 o'clock) three days from now!"
Qin Wei showered Feng Chen with more praise, almost making Feng Chen float away.
"Oh, and Young Master Feng, guests participating in the Gambling King Tournament can gamble small amounts for free at this casino for the next three days, as long as it doesn't exceed five thousand taels of silver!"
Qin Wei said.
Hearing this, Feng Chen's eyes immediately lit up. He hadn't expected such a benefit. Why not play if it's free!
"Then I won't be polite! Thank you for your kindness, Boss!"
After hearing this, Feng Chen left excitedly.
Watching his back disappear outside the door, the smile on Qin Wei's Face instantly vanished, replaced by a complex expression mixed with fear and flattery.
"Senior, everything has been done as you wished!"
Qin Wei said to the empty air.
The next second, a voice sounded from the depths of Qin Wei's mind, startling him.
"Well done. Three days from now, I want him to lose everything and be disgraced!"
Su Xuan transmitted his voice.
Qin Wei trembled and quickly replied, "Yes! Junior will definitely handle it!"
Su Xuan said nothing more, leaving only a cold aura that vanished in an instant.
Qin Wei had just straightened up, his back already soaked with cold sweat.
He looked in the direction Feng Chen had left, a flicker of pity in his eyes, which was then replaced by a deeper fear.
Compared to Feng Chen's outcome, he was more afraid that any slight mistake on his part would lead to the same fate as Wang Ming.
"But then again, this Senior is truly unfathomable. He clearly looks younger than me..."
Recalling Su Xuan's appearance, Qin Wei couldn't quite remember it clearly, only that Su Xuan seemed very young.
