Hong Kong variety show: The tycoon who emerged from Portland Street

"stop!"

Yi Jian suddenly stood up and walked a few steps to Chen Mo.

"Chen Mo, are you really going to go this far?"

The 100 million yuan that Chen Mo won was not entirely from the gamblers.

In retrospect, only a small portion of the 30 million chips Chen Mo had before entering the VIP room were won from gamblers.

The rest of the money was all casino money.

This casino has only been open for a few months, and its profits are only tens of millions.

Chen Mo won 100 million, plus the initial capital provided by the triad when the casino first opened.

To exchange 100 million for Chen Mo, they would definitely have to ransack the entire casino.

If other gamblers exchange their chips, the casino may not have enough money to pay them out.

Ekin Cheng now deeply regrets it.

I shouldn't have gambled with Chen Mo in the first place.

He didn't know why, but after he got to the gambling table, he was initially three against one, and he was just a little bit away from winning back Chen Mo's 30 million. How did Chen Mo suddenly turn the tables on him?

How did I end up losing 100 million to Chen Mo so inexplicably?

Chen Mo looked at Yi Jian in front of him, a faint sneer on his lips.

"What, can't afford to lose? It's only 100 million, surely the casino can afford it?"

"Chen Mo, don't push your luck!"

"Did I bully you? I sincerely brought money to support you. You guys were unlucky and not good at gambling. Is it my fault that you lost?"

Or is it that once you enter your casino, you can only lose, and never win?

"This is Macau, not Hong Kong!" Ekin Cheng said through gritted teeth.

Chen Mo sneered, "Why don't you give it a try? See if your men can keep me here."

However, I must remind you that you should think carefully about the consequences of doing this.

Once you can't keep me, you'll never be able to go back to Hong Kong.

Chen Mo was already half a head taller than Yi Jian, and now, standing in front of Yi Jian, his eyes were disdainful, and his aura completely suppressed Yi Jian.

Although Ekin Cheng was a leader of Hung Hing like Chan Mo, he was far inferior to Chan Mo in terms of territory, number of followers, and personal strength.

When faced with Chen Mo, his threats became utterly ridiculous.

Chen Mo pressed on, "Have you made a choice? Are you going to have someone take action, or are you going to prepare the money for me?"

"You...you..."

Seeing that Yi Jian couldn't make a decision for a long time, Chen Mo sneered, shoved Yi Jian aside, and walked out.

"If you don't dare to make a move, then obediently exchange the money for me. I'll wait for you at the exchange counter for five minutes. If I don't see the money after five minutes, I'm going to cause a scene at your casino."

Several henchmen followed behind, each carrying a tray full of chips.

Outside the VIP room, all the gamblers saw the chips being carried by Chen Mo's henchmen and couldn't help but gasp in surprise.

Inside the VIP lounge, the instant Chen Mo stepped out, Yi Jian quickly picked up the phone and called Jiang Tiansheng.

After hearing Ekin Cheng recount Chen Mo's actions, Chiang Tin-sang flew into a rage.

"Ekin!!!"

"What did you do to offend Chen Mo? You created this trouble yourself, so you have to deal with it!"

On the other end of the phone, Ekin was almost in tears, feeling wronged. He had wanted to ask Chiang Tin-sang to help him get justice, but instead, Chiang Tin-sang was blaming him!

"Mr. Jiang, I really didn't offend him! I was very polite to him when I saw him today, except when we were in the VIP room, my tone was a little harsh."

I really don't know why he's picking on me!

"Hmph, you were just a little harsh in your tone? You didn't put on airs? You didn't act tough? You didn't make sarcastic remarks?"

Jiang Tiansheng's rhetorical question left Yi Jian speechless.

Putting on airs, showing off, and making sarcastic remarks—isn't that normal? Which shorty doesn't talk and act like that?

Does that mean you have to grovel and fawn over Chen Mo?

How will I survive in the underworld after that?

"But......"

"No buts! You caused this trouble yourself, so you have to deal with it yourself. What's the use of coming to me?" Jiang Tiansheng interrupted Yi Jian directly before he could finish speaking.

Jiang Tiansheng had already roughly guessed why Chen Mo went to the casino.

The news of Bai Touweng and his men having their heads shaved had already spread like wildfire in Hong Kong during the day. It would be strange if he couldn't guess that Chen Mo was doing it to get revenge on him.

If this had happened in Hong Kong, anyone with a bit of inside information would have guessed, based on Jiang Tiansheng's invitation last night and the old man's bald head today, that Jiang Tiansheng had offended Chen Mo.

But then again, what can you do when Ekin is in Macau?

He knows nothing about what happened on Hong Kong Island last night.

This just happens to make Jiang Tiansheng take the blame.

"Mr. Jiang, do you really want to exchange 100 million for Chen Mo? The Taipa casino doesn't have that much money right now, and how will the casino continue to operate?"

Mr. Jiang, you've always taken the lion's share of the casino's profits. If the casino goes out of business, you'll be the one who suffers the biggest loss!

Ekin no longer wants to discuss whose responsibility it is with Chiang Tin-sang; he just wants Chiang Tin-sang to give him some advice.

Jiang Tiansheng also knew that simply shifting the blame to Yi Jian wouldn't do any good; the matter still needed to be resolved, and someone had to bear the losses.

"Are you confident you can eliminate Chen Mo without anyone knowing?"

".......No!"

Ekin Cheng wanted to say yes, but he knew his own limitations.

Chen Mo demonstrated the ability to take on a hundred opponents single-handedly, whether facing Hong Tai, Hong Le, Wo Luen Shing, or Wang Bao.

To kill Chen Mo, they either need to contact the gunman or mobilize hundreds of people to surround the entire hotel and carry out a large-scale assassination.

He really didn't have a way to get rid of Chen Mo silently.

Jiang Tiansheng knew that Yi Jian couldn't do it, and he only asked that question just now to make Yi Jian give up.

"You won't pay without me?"

Calculate how much funding the casino has, and use funds from another casino to make up the shortfall, then send Chen Mo away.

Ekin Cheng, you're the one who caused this mess, so you should be the one to bear the losses.

However, the losses this time are too great, and you may not be able to bear them alone.

Here's the deal: you'll bear half of the 100 million loss, and the other half will be considered a normal loss for the casino.

Tomorrow I will transfer 50 million from the triad account to the casino to ensure its normal operation.

This money is a loan from the triad to you. It will be deducted from your branch's profits later. Is that alright?

Jiang Tiansheng really had a brilliant plan.

The loss of 100 million was borne by Ekin Cheng himself, who ended up bearing 50 million of it.

The remaining 50 million was considered a loss incurred by the casino. This loss was to be shared by him, Ekin Cheng, and the triad.

Based on this calculation, of the 100 million yuan that Chen Mo won, Jiang Tiansheng's money accounted for less than half; the majority belonged to Yi Jian.

And so, Ekin Cheng had to thank him for his help.

"Thank you, Mr. Jiang. I will definitely work hard in the future to repay your great kindness."

Upon hearing that Jiang Tiansheng would only let him bear half of the losses, Ekin was moved to tears.

Although something felt off, I couldn't quite put my finger on it.

However, there was no time for him to think it over now; the five minutes Chen Mo had given him were almost up.
