The Supreme Soldier King of the Lady CEO-Chapter 948 - 928: Auction! Dice!
"Thank you, we will attend on time."
Ye Huan feigned nonchalance as he accepted the auction ticket.
"Alright, the auction officially starts at eight in the evening, you can come early."
The waiter respectfully exited the room, gently closing the door behind him.
Ye Huan sat back on the sofa, staring at the ticket in his hand. Outwardly calm, his heart had already stirred up a storm!
He never thought he would encounter the Fire Cloud Jade, one of the seven Ancient Divine Jades of the Dragon Gate, on the Diamond Queen cruise!
And this divine jade was brought out by that guy impersonating his personal assistant under the title of "Great Emperor Ye Huan"!
Actually, Ye Huan remained skeptical about the authenticity of the Fire Cloud Jade.
After all, the "personal assistant" had already impersonated his identity and name. Bringing out a fake jade for auction wasn't something surprising.
However, Ye Huan couldn't help but keep this matter in mind.
After all, the seven Ancient Divine Jades of the Dragon Gate are not something everyone has seen!
If you haven't seen them, you can't counterfeit them!
Ye Huan once personally heard from Master Dog that the Fire Cloud Jade is entirely fiery red, crystal clear, with the Fire God Zhurong from Huaxia mythology carved on the front!
And the jade on this ticket looked exactly the same as Master Dog's description of the Fire Cloud Jade, without any difference!
This implies that even if the jade is a fake, the one who brought out this fake, his "personal assistant", must have seen the genuine Fire Cloud Jade and knows information about it.
What a surprising discovery.
Ye Huan's eyes shot out two beams of light.
He had no interest in this auction before, but now his interest was piqued.
"The Fire Cloud Jade, isn't it one of Dragon Gate's seven Ancient Divine Jades? Real or fake?" Jiang Shishuang, who was flipping through a book beside him, asked nonchalantly.
"Just a reminder, your book is upside down."
"..."
Jiang Shishuang's mouth twitched slightly, a bit embarrassed, and she quickly turned the book right side up.
"I don't know if it's real or fake, care to join me for a look?" Ye Huan asked.
Jiang Shishuang nodded, maintaining a facade of calm, though her heart couldn't quite stay still.
Years ago, a Sequence Holder—First Sequence, whom even she hadn't seen in person, issued an important task to her and several other Red-Sequences: Collect the seven Ancient Divine Jades of the Dragon Gate!
The task was of the highest level—SSS!
The only two Ancient Divine Jades with leads were in the possession of the Di Family and Qin Family of the Dragon Gate, and were unobtainable.
The other five jades lost outside didn't have the slightest traceable intel!
Therefore, the mission had made little progress all along!
Unexpectedly, today, they encountered one on the ship!
...
There were still two whole hours before the auction started, and Ye Huan went with Jiang Shishuang to the passenger dining room located on the ship's negative first floor for dinner.
Meanwhile, as white smoke from the smokestacks soared into the sky and the whistle blared noisily, the ship slowly departed from the harbor, setting course for Yokohama, Japan.
After spending half an hour eating, Ye Huan and Jiang Shishuang arrived on the top deck where the auction was to be held.
At this time, waiters were busily moving tables and chairs, setting up the auction venue.
Many passengers were also on the deck, gathered in a corner, some cheering, some cursing, creating quite the lively scene.
Ye Huan, with Jiang Shishuang behind him, went over to see, his brow furrowing as he saw black lines.
The guy impersonating his personal assistant truly wouldn't miss any chance to rake in the money.
Knowing that passengers would gather early on the top deck, he set up a "leisure zone" in advance?
There were four gaming tables, with only one empty. The other three were populated by distinguished-looking businessmen, engaged in gambling dice against each other.
The ship played the role of an intermediary, responsible for exchanging chips for the businessmen, shaking dice, acting as referees, and taking a 1% commission fee.
Ridiculous, money-grubbing to the core!
Ye Huan shook his head, just about to leave, when he noticed Jiang Shishuang appearing eager, curiously asking, "What, want to play a few rounds?"
Jiang Shishuang nodded a bit embarrassedly.
Considering they were without anything else to do at the moment, Ye Huan placed her at the empty table and, using his bank card, swiped a million through the neighboring waiter's POS machine, saying, "Ten million."
"Got it."
The waiter promptly brought over ten stacks of chips, totaling ten million, and placed them in front of Jiang Shishuang.
"Haha, the young lady's playing too? Aren't you afraid of losing 'til you wet your pants?" a businessman with a thick cigar in his mouth chuckled, revealing a shiny gold tooth as he sat across from Jiang Shishuang.
Jiang Shishuang arched her eyebrow, coolly saying, "Why so much nonsense? Start already."
"Yo, a feisty lass, haha!"
The businessman laughed heartily, took out his cigar, puffed thick smoke, and pushed forward three chips: "Three million."
Not to be outdone, Jiang Shishuang also pushed forward three chips: "Three million."
The referee, face impassive, raised the dice cup, rattled it for ten seconds, and slammed it on the table.
"Big." The businessman grinned.
"Small." Jiang Shishuang called small without even thinking, purely unwilling to guess the same as the businessman.
Ye Huan slightly shook his head, knowing with just a glance that Jiang Shishuang would lose this round.
However, he didn't inform Jiang Shishuang, letting her have her fun.
But just when the referee was about to open the cup, a male voice interrupted, "Hold on!"
A blond man walked over, smarmily adjusting his suit collar, then seriously said to Jiang Shishuang, "Miss, betting on small will make you lose, go for big!"
"When did my bets become your concern?" Jiang Shishuang's eyebrows inverted, her face full of disdain.
This blond man was none other than the annoying fellow they encountered in the mall!
Kangaroo Country's Crown Prince—Kaman Hart!
"Miss, I'm kindly reminding you, don't mistake my goodwill for nothing but donkey's liver and lungs. Watch out or you'll lose even your underpants!" Kaman said, glancing at Ye Huan, inwardly sneering.
What a small world!
The guy who embarrassed him, turned out to have boarded the Diamond Queen as well!
Since that's the case, it saves him the trouble of revenge later on.
Kaman smirked; he had full confidence that he could redeem his face on the ship and win Jiang Shishuang's heart!
And this all starts with this gamble!
"Three million, on big!" Kaman arrogantly exchanged for one billion in chips, pulled over a chair to sit, then pushed forward three chips!
When the referee opened the dice cup, Jiang Shishuang's face darkened.
The combined points of the three dice inside added up to more than 12. Those who guessed big won!
Jiang Shishuang's three million in chips was split between the businessman and Kaman!
"Miss, I told you to bet big and you didn't believe me, haha!" Kaman was gloating.
"Shut up!"
Losing money and being mocked, how could Jiang Shishuang bear it, her face flushed with anger!
Kaman chuckled, saying, "Miss Jiang, from now on bet with me, and you won't lose, got it?"
"Young lady, what Kaman just said is not wrong. He's a renowned gambling god in the world, his skills are extraordinary, following his bets can't go wrong." Another person chimed in.
Jiang Shishuang snorted disdainfully, fully ignoring it.
Soon, the second round began.
All three parties continued betting three million.
After the referee shook the dice, the businessman spoke first: "Small!"
"Big!" Kaman declared.
"Small!"
Jiang Shishuang insisted on not guessing the same as Kaman!
The result was the number on the three dice added up to more than 12 still, those who guessed big won!
The combined six million in chips between her and the businessman were all lost to Kaman!
"Haha!"
Kaman, smiling slyly, said, "Miss, betting against me is equivalent to losing. Understand?"
