Reaching the age of thirty, my income randomly doubled-Chapter 715 - 523: Turmoil on the Gambling Boat Part 2

Gambling has a fatal attraction for many people.

It can rapidly increase the stimulating factors in the brain.

Those with better control might still leave a big casino with a little something.

But for those with poor self-control, it's truly a bottomless pit.

February 5th, Chinese New Year.

It was supposed to be a day of celebration, but things changed with the arrival of a Mercedes-Benz driving up the hill.

Yang Changwen looked listless with his head hung low, his hair greasy as if he hadn't washed it for days.

As for Peng Yu and Yang Kang who went out with him, neither dared to breathe too loudly.

They had initially planned to just follow Yang Changwen around last night, but then a friend from Magic City showed up.

They immediately went to a luxury gambling boat, and the environment there stunned them.

Beautiful women, gambling tables, roulette, slot machines, and more.

There were also many VIP lounges.

Yang Changwen was doing okay at first, just casually playing in the main hall.

But his luck exploded, and in less than an hour, he won over twenty million.

Then, his friend joked, saying with such good luck why not try playing in the VIP area?

If he could keep winning for a few more hours, he could quickly make a billion.

Yang Changwen thought about buying a house in Xiangjiang, and if he won, he would directly purchase a large flat.

By then, even his brother-in-law would see him in a new light.

However, things did not go as planned, and he lost 3.2 billion in one night.

Yang Changwen didn't have that much cash on him, and his bank account couldn't possibly hold that much money.

Three billion of that was borrowed from the casino.

The only reason he could borrow so much was because he mentioned his brother-in-law was Chen Pingsheng.

And his friend also vouched for his identity.

Identity guarantee is not the same as a monetary guarantee, there is a huge difference in nature.

If Yang Changwen couldn't pay back the money, the person responsible for the identity guarantee wouldn't need to pay either.

They only ensured the borrower was truthful about their identity.

Lending out three billion, Yang Changwen initially only wanted to break even, but eventually, he got in deeper and deeper.

If it weren't for the casino capping his credit at three billion, he might have lost even more.

As for the person driving them back, he naturally was one of the casino owner's men.

Such places dared to lend money like this because they were confident in getting it back.

They have their ways.

Yang Changwen dared not look at Song Wu, let alone anyone else.

The driver came naturally following the boss's orders, and he had to explain the situation a bit in front of Chen Pingsheng.

This wasn't them scamming people; it was Yang Changwen and other clients who lost the bets.

Xiangjiang only has so many people who can afford billion-dollar mansions.

These people often run into each other; the casino owner certainly didn't want Chen Pingsheng to turn his resentment towards them.

Only Yang Changwen himself is to blame; he got fooled and didn't even realize it.

No casino would deal with these matters.

They are only responsible for providing the venue and the loans; the interest on three billion for one day alone is five million.

People in this business understand the rules.

Facing another top-tier boss, they naturally wouldn't offend them to death.

What the casino owner could do was limit the loans and send Yang Changwen back.

If he had stayed for a few more days, let alone three billion, they could swindle thirty billion off him cleanly.

The driver, a burly man dressed in a neat black suit with a buzz cut, respectfully said:

"Mr. Chen, our boss asked me to convey a message to you, he really didn't want to disturb you during Chinese New Year like this, but regarding your brother-in-law, the boss has done all he could."

"Thank him for me, I will have our finance department return the money immediately."

If you owe money to a casino, the only way to not repay it is to disappear to some untraceable place and never come out again.

Chen Pingsheng naturally knew what the boss meant; Yang Changwen was clearly set up by other patrons.

Both sides were clients, and as the boss, it was not good to offend anyone. All he could do was send him back in time.

The driver left, and Song Wu, heavily pregnant, almost fainted.

More than three hundred million! Their family's entire savings combined couldn't amount to that much.

And then... her husband lost it all in one night.

Even her sister, Song Yanxi, glared at her fiercely, that look clearly saying, look at the cost of your impulsiveness back then.

Her brother-in-law had introduced to her so many reliable people, but she didn't like any of them. She insisted on this third-rate little star from the entertainment circle, Yang Changwen.

Now look, even the largest of families couldn't withstand such a blow.

Everyone else was silent as the grave, no one dared to breathe.

More than three hundred million! A figure unheard of.

And to think it was lost all in one night.

Chen Pingsheng's gaze was frighteningly cold, but he still made a call to the finance department to pay off this amount first.

To avoid having to pay five million in interest every day.

"Brother-in-law... I was wrong."

"Do you think I paid off all these loans just for you?"

Is it not so?

Chen Pingsheng said expressionlessly, "It seems you haven't fully realized your own worth. Which part of you, Yang Changwen, is worth three hundred million? The reason I paid this money first is to get your signed loan agreement and contract."

Chen Pingsheng, not minding that his sister-in-law was right beside him, went straight on: "Notify the legal department of the group. Once the IOU is obtained, immediately apply for court litigation. Tengying Group will directly acquire Wenwu Media for a price of three hundred million. Your media economic company is doing quite well, earning a net profit of one to two billion every year. According to this IOU, it will increase the acquisition fee by five million every day."

Wenwu Media was what Yang Changwen and his sister-in-law Song Wu had established after leaving the entertainment circle.

The company, with its annual net profit of over two billion, made three hundred million a bargain.

Yang Changwen didn't expect Chen Pingsheng to kick him while he was down.

If he still had that internet-famous company, he could pay off the three hundred million debt in at most half a year.

That is, not counting the interest.

With the interest, he'd never be able to pay it off in his lifetime.

Chen Pingsheng turned to look at his sister-in-law, Song Wu,

"Don't think I'm taking advantage of you. If I don't use three hundred million today to buy your company, it will end up in the hands of those who set you up anyway. Your best option now is to directly file for divorce, preserve the assets that belong to you in advance. If that's not enough, then sue Yang Changwen. Old Yang's Family, in order not to let their son go to jail, could still clear out tens of millions."

A man who lost three hundred million in one night.

At this moment, if you still talk about marital ties, unwilling to cut them off.

That's not just foolish, it's downright stupid.

And stupid to the core.

Chen Pingsheng wouldn't just fork out three hundred million for nothing; he was merely getting back the IOU from the casino boss ahead of others.

If he waited for others to claim it, it would be too late.

Yang Changwen, along with his pregnant sister-in-law Song Wu, would be devoured clean.

Fortunately, he still had some reputation in Xiangjiang; otherwise, the casino owner wouldn't have sent him back ahead of time.

Yang Changwen could only be considered expendable; he thought Chen Pingsheng would lend him a hand.

After all, three hundred million was nothing to him.

He just didn't expect him to be so ruthless, not only to buy out his company with three hundred million.

But to also have Song Wu immediately go to court for divorce, apply for asset protection, and split of matrimonial properties.

This was cutting off all of Yang Changwen's possibilities of retreat.

An actually third-rate little star, lucky enough to marry his sister-in-law.

Usually ignorant and ungrateful, what right did he have to lose three hundred million in one night.

And still expect him to foot the bill, keep dreaming.

Chen Pingsheng sternly warned everyone, "If I hear of anyone else going to the casino, they can just get out of Old Chen Family."

There's no way to use up, no way to spend it all.

Even the largest fortune can be gambled away.

The more miserable Yang Changwen is, the deeper the lesson they'll all remember.
