A day later, a new rumor spread through the Lisboa Casino in Macau: the God of Gamblers, along with his young apprentice, had swept through the casinos, winning millions in just a few hours and creating a legend.
The staff at the Lisboa Casino already treated the two as honored guests and, not wanting Ni Yongyao and the "God of Gamblers" to enter the casino, could only offer them the highest VIP treatment at the Lisboa Hotel.
There was no other way; if Ni Yongyao and Gao Jin continued gambling, their entire month's revenue might be wiped out in one night.
……
Inside Gao Lao Si's villa.
Gao Lao Si, dressed in a sharp suit, sat with his legs crossed, smoking a cigar, exuding an aggressive aura. In Haojiang, who didn't know Gao Lao Si?
People in the underworld would respectfully call him Fourth Brother. Even though some of the gambling dens were arranged by foreigners, he still pocketed a considerable share of the profits.
At this moment, the henchman handed over the photo:
"Fourth Brother, this is news from the Lisboa Hotel: Ni Yongyao and the God of Gamblers, Gao Jin, have arrived in Macau."
Old Gao frowned, his face darkening.
"Why isn't Ni Yongyao staying put on Hong Kong Island? He's actually come to Macau. What's he up to?"
There was indeed a disagreement between Gao Laosi and Ni Yongyao before. He was determined to acquire Galaxy Casino.
However, after the Ni family unified Hong Kong, Gao Laosi knew that the terrifying power behind the Ni family was something he could not afford to provoke.
Hong Kong Island has countless large and small triads, and there are countless short-statured gangs, but after the Ni family made their move, they swept away all the forces on Hong Kong Island with lightning speed.
Those who obey me prosper, those who defy me perish—this is the epitome of tyranny. Anyone who opposes the Ni family will not have a good ending.
Gao Laosi was worried that Ni Yongyao was restless. Did he want to get his hands on Macau? What a big appetite he had.
With this in mind, Gao Laosi began to test the waters, while simultaneously resolving the previous conflict:
"Prepare an invitation and deliver it to Ni Yongyao personally at the Lisboa Hotel. Tell him that it is I, Gao Laosi, who apologizes to him."
Gao Laosi planned to test Ni Yongyao's thoughts, while also not wanting to offend the Ni family due to contradictions in their words.
Now, this towering tree is beyond his reach.
Upon hearing this, the younger brother was speechless for a long time, and even stammered a bit:
"Fourth Brother, you...you want to apologize?"
In Macau, everyone knows how arrogant Gao Lao Si is. Making money is fine, but it has to be enough to feed Gao Lao Si first, and only the leftovers can be used by the triads.
In Macau, everyone knows the name of Gao Laosi and his arrogance, yet now he has to apologize for a young man.
Old Gao snorted coldly: "I'm not someone who doesn't know what's good for me. Back when I wasn't the boss, even if I was arrogant, I knew there were some people I couldn't afford to offend."
"Go get ready."
Anyone who can sit in this position is ruthless and cunning; without such shrewdness, they would have been sold out long ago.
Arrogance is fine, but it depends on who you're dealing with.
He can be arrogant towards the older members of the gang, and he can be arrogant towards the younger members, but he can't be arrogant towards the Ni family.
Because the Ni family's methods are too ruthless, they probably really want to kill him; he won't see the sun rise tomorrow.
Gao Laosi didn't want to offend the Ni family because of some words; times have changed.
Soon, inside the Lisboa Hotel, an invitation was handed to Ni Yongyao.
Ni Yongyao toyed with the invitation in his hand for a moment, smiled, and then handed it to Gao Jin:
"Are you interested, Ah Jinqing?"
Gao Jin accepted the invitation, a look of surprise in his eyes, and clicked his tongue twice:
"Everyone in Macau knows how arrogant Gao Lao Si is; even foreigners have to back down."
"I didn't expect that Mr. Ni would receive this invitation to apologize as soon as you arrived in Haojiang. Do you have any conflict with Mr. Gao Laosi?"
Gao Jin couldn't help but be surprised by Ni Yongyao's influence.
Ni Yongyao squinted, pondered for a moment, and then remembered this insignificant person:
"I really don't know him, and I've never met him before."
"I just remembered, he called wanting to buy my Galaxy Casino at a low price, but I refused, and we had a little argument."
P.S.: My new book is launching! I'm begging for your support with flowers, reviews, and monthly tickets!
Chapter 180 Gao Laosi is enraged and embarrassed, and the negotiations break down!
Chapter 180 Gao Laosi is enraged and embarrassed, and the negotiations break down!
Gao Jin had heard of Gao Lao Si's identity, but mostly he knew it was because Gao Lao Si was so flamboyant and no one in Macau dared to mess with him. He laughed and said:
"Is Mr. Ni planning to cooperate with Gao Laosi?"
"However, I remember that Gao Laosi had a rule: he would take the lion's share of the business and only give others the leftovers after he had eaten his fill. So, cooperating with him was not a good choice."
"However, his business is indeed very large, and he owns an entire district in Macau."
Haojiang is divided into Haojiang Peninsula and outlying islands.
These two islands are further divided into seven districts.
The Hou Kong Peninsula is divided into five parishes: Nossa Senhora de Fátima Parish, St. Anthony Parish, St. László Parish, and St. John's Parish.
The outlying islands are further divided into the Carmel Parish in Taipa and the St. Francis Parish in Coloane.
As for Cotai, it is a newly developed area located on reclaimed land between Coloane and Taipa, and it has not been designated as a separate area.
The location of Gao Lao Si is in the Fatima Parish. As for other areas, they are either occupied by foreigners or run by local family forces, and there are even pirates involved.
The power dynamics in Macau are complex and intertwined. This small area is home to all sorts of people. Although casino rights in Macau are auctioned off every year, most of the slots are pre-selected.
It is difficult for Hong Kong Island's influence to enter Macau, and of course, Macau's business cannot enter Hong Kong Island. Currently, the Ni family dominates Hong Kong Island.
Gao Jin knew that Ni Yongyao's visit to Macau was definitely aimed at expanding the Galaxy Casino. This was an opportunity. Since Gao Laosi had some quarrels with the Ni family before, they would definitely have the upper hand in negotiating cooperation.
Ni Yongyao, who doesn't take what others leave behind in business, laughed and said, "He is indeed very arrogant, but I, Ni Yongyao, have always taken the lion's share in business."
"If we're going to open a casino in Macau, we should be the biggest shareholder."
Ni Yongyao had no intention of eating other people's leftovers, and besides, he was aware of Gao Laosi's previous arrogance.
Now that Gao Laosi knows the Ni family is the only dominant force in Hong Kong, he has to bow his head. At the time, he really thought the Ni family was an easy target to bully.
He wasn't interested in splitting the profits 50/50 with Gao Laosi, and Ni Yongyao planned to take over Gao Laosi's businesses.
"Gao Jin, get ready, we're going to see Gao Lao Si tomorrow."
“If he hadn’t contacted me, I would have been planning to visit him in person. It seems he’s a smart man.”
Upon hearing this, Gao Jin remained respectful and offered no rebuttal: "Everything will be done according to Mr. Ni's wishes."
Gao Jin knew that since Ni Yongyao needed this territory, he would help him to the greatest extent possible.
Ni Yongyao smiled and said, "Let's go see if this Gao Laosi's reputation is really as great as the rumors say."
Gao Jin nodded in agreement: "Yes, Mr. Ni."
However, Gao Jin also knew that no one dared to openly take action against Ni Yongyao.
Although Gao Jin was unclear about the Ni family's power, the fact that they could open a casino in Hong Kong was something that Gao Lao Si (Gao Jin's fourth brother) could not do.
……
One day later, at the Royal Garden Hotel in Haojiang.
The restaurant here features private rooms with various themes, among which the Phoenix Terrace private room is the most famous.
Phoenix Terrace is composed of enormous embroidered screens and is equipped with rare antiques collected from around the world, aiming to create an elegant and unparalleled classical and luxurious atmosphere.
All this is just to make the vegetables more expensive.
Among them, dishes such as Taishi Phoenix Soup, Chicken Egg Broth, and Goose Liver Chicken are the signature dishes here.
The Royal Garden Hotel is quite famous, and the number of people queuing up every day is far from enough to secure a seat. Without a certain status, it's impossible to get a table here.
Inside the private room, a table was already laden with delicacies, the cost of which alone was nearly HK$100,000.
Gao Laosi was hosting a banquet for Ni Yongyao here, but he glanced at his Omega watch with annoyance. It was already the appointed time, and Ni Yongyao was nowhere to be seen. His face immediately darkened.
The tea on the table was steaming hot, intended for an apology.
The rules of the underworld cannot be broken, so by offering tea, he naturally hoped to gain Ni Yongyao's forgiveness and apology.
But now it seems we won't be able to drink this tea, since no one has come.
As the saying goes, "When a person leaves, the tea cools." If someone doesn't come for tea, it's not considered disrespectful; does that mean they're going to make an enemy of you?
At this moment, his subordinate Morobing's expression also turned rather unpleasant:
"Fourth Brother, Ni Yongyao is clearly not giving you face."
In Haojiang, no one would dare to stand up Gao Laosi like that. In the past, Gao Laosi was always the last to arrive at banquets. No one dared to start eating first. He never had the habit of arriving early. That's how arrogant he was.
Now that he's hosting a banquet for Ni Yongyao, he's the one who has to wait, so his subordinates naturally think Ni Yongyao is just putting on airs.
Moro Bing, as the top henchman and manager under Gao Lao Si, controlled casinos of all sizes. In Macau, everyone respected him and called him "Master Bing".
