It is not known that all causes and effects in the world arise from greed.
Han Jinlun was greedy for the long-legged woman's lust.
The long-legged woman, in turn, was greedy for Han Jinlun's wealth.
His soul returned to Nan Ke and entered a dream, and upon waking, he was already a player in the game.
Once you enter a rigged game, even if you want to withdraw, you are no longer in control of your own actions.
Take Han Jinlun, for instance. As long as his possessions are not completely drained, the members of the "Zou Qian Tuan" will never let him go easily!
As long as one is at the gambling table, they have plenty of ways to make Han Jinlun stay!
...
After the sudden minor interlude, seeing that most people were asleep and the few awake travelers were mostly vigilant, the "Zou Qian Tuan" decisively changed their strategy.
They had the middle-aged man who was playing the migrant worker and had won money retreat first.
Then, including the long-legged woman, the remaining four continued to play with Han Jinlun.
After the "Zou Qian Tuan" changed tactics, Han Jinlun's "luck" suddenly turned around, and he managed to break through the rounds and emerge victorious.
Heard Han Jinlun muttering that he had about eight hundred yuan left, and if he could win it back, he would break even.
Seeing this, the middle-aged man who had previously played the boss immediately objected, clamoring for new players to bring good luck.
He also said that at least six people were needed, and if there weren't enough, he wouldn't play.
Upon hearing this, the "Zou Qian Tuan" began to quietly solicit around, asking if anyone wanted to join them.
What I didn't expect was that Han Jinlun, that utter fool, without realizing the seriousness of the situation, actually helped those people inquire around in a hushed tone, like a complete idiot.
As one of the few onlookers, I naturally became one of Han Jinlun's targets for inquiry.
If it weren't for someone next to me, I would have loved to slap this idiot with his completely negative IQ, who would help others count money even after being sold!
It's not the divine opponent you should fear, but the pig-like teammate!
I'm here to save you! But you actually want to drag me down with you!?
Despite my anger and complaints.
When Han Jinlun asked me, I didn't show any emotion on my face, just shook my head slightly and said I'd watch.
Seeing this, Han Jinlun immediately skipped me and went straight to his next target.
I've seen people scamming people.
But pigs scamming pigs, this is truly the first time!
Han Jinlun, who was already marked as a target by the "Zou Qian Tuan" due to his lust, was now helping them to rope in more people!
A rare gem! Truly a rare "talent"!
After a round of inquiries, the "Zou Qian Tuan" gained almost nothing.
If it weren't for a seasoned gambler with a strong addiction among the few onlookers who voluntarily came forward, they would have basically just kept fleecing Han Jinlun relentlessly...
This seasoned old gambler was a bald man who looked to be over forty.
The reason I called him a seasoned old gambler was because he was very discreet with his money.
As the saying goes: wealth should not be flaunted.
Although his demeanor and posture indicated he was itching to gamble, the bald man was quite restrained. He only took out a few small bills from his pocket, totaling less than a hundred yuan.
At this sight, the long-legged woman's delicate eyebrows furrowed slightly.
One could imagine that compared to Han Jinlun, whose hands were piled with bright red hundred-yuan bills, the long-legged woman would have little interest in small fry like the bald man.
However, the bald man paid no mind to this. After pulling his money out of his pocket, he cheerfully sat down at the table.
Seeing that no one else was joining the table, the members of the "Zou Qian Tuan" had no choice but to continue playing with Han Jinlun and the bald man...
If nothing unexpected happened, the "Zou Qian Tuan" would not let this small fish, the bald man, lose.
But they would definitely not let him win much either.
About half an hour later...
As expected, with the coordinated efforts of the four people at the table, the bald man won several hands in a row.
His initial stake had quadrupled!
Just as the bald man's interest was piqued, as if signaled by his accomplices, the middle-aged man who played the boss immediately began to grumble and complain in a low voice.
"I'm done! Damn it all!"
"One person loses a few hundred, another loses a few hundred! Everyone who came later won all my money! It's no fun, absolutely no fun!"
"Don't say I can't afford to lose. Of course, you don't care when it's not your money!"
"If any one of you were swapped with me, and then had to lose money to someone else every time they joined, you probably wouldn't be willing anymore."
"Although we play cards together just to pass the time, no one wants to lose all the time!"
"How about this! Eight is fortune, so let's find two more people and make it eight people to play together!"
"If we can't find enough people, then let's just raise the stakes and play bigger, giving us losers a chance to see if we can break even!?"
"If you don't want to add people or raise the stakes, then just pack up and go back to your seats, and go back to sleep!"
At first glance, the middle-aged man's words seemed unremarkable, much like those gamblers who had lost their heads at the gambling table.
But in reality, he was using this method to subtly test Han Jinlun and the bald man.
As long as these two "pigs" in the game agreed to his conditions, it would mean that they had no suspicion about the game and were also open to raising the stakes.
And being open to raising the stakes was the most important part!
Because this point would directly affect the direction of the game.
After a perfunctory round of inquiries, everyone at the table, including the targets Han Jinlun and the bald man, agreed to add more players.
At this time, a man with a handlebar mustache from the "Zou Qian Tuan" immediately beckoned to everyone and began to solicit in a low voice again.
However, this time, they didn't stop. They continued to play while calling out a few times.
It seemed that the "Zou Qian Tuan" was ready to change their tactics!
Seeing that the two targets had firmly taken the bait, the "Zou Qian Tuan," led by the handlebar mustache, finally revealed their ugly true faces.
After the "Zou Qian Tuan" used a method similar to "two ghosts carrying a sedan chair" to eliminate Han Jinlun and the bald man one after another, the final hand was won by the handlebar mustache.
Seeing that this group was finally showing signs of making their move, I immediately became extremely alert and focused my gaze entirely on the game...
I saw the man with the handlebar mustache, diagonally opposite Han Jinlun, gather the cards and then, right under everyone's noses, perform a fake shuffle.
The technique was so fast that others couldn't perceive it at all!
