"Okay, Doctor Qin, and this gentleman... Young Master Ling, please follow to the front desk to exchange for chips."
Green Hair, indeed worthy of his reputation for being particularly adept at playing the wind, imdiately changed his attitude upon realizing Ling Zhenfei seed to co from an influential background. While bowing and scraping in a quieter tone, he hurriedly led the two to the front desk.
The stark difference in Green Hair's attitude, although not particularly significant in Ling Zhenfei's view, was still quite a revelation to Qin Fanghuai.
He certainly knew that the casino was like a battlefield. Back when he ca with millions in his pocket, even with the na of Old Qiao's nephew, Green Hair would not have given him the ti of day.
Yet, he had not expected that Ling Zhenfei's casual display of authority would so shake the young man that he almost lost his bearings completely!
It seed that this Young Master Ling truly was a capable figure. Otherwise, his uncle Qiao Zhengyi would certainly not be bending over backward to associate with such an unknown young man.
Green Hair took Ling Zhenfei and Qin Fanghuai to the front desk, handed over a bank card to the receptionist, and asked her to swipe the card for chips.
Originally, Green Hair thought that a young man with Ling Zhenfei's presence would casually have at least several million in his card! But...
When the front desk receptionist displayed the bank card's balance on the BOS machine, Green Hair was stunned!
Five hundred... yuan!
What's going on?
Shouldn't there be a bunch more zeros after those digits? How could such a lofty person have only five hundred yuan in his card? How could he even show his face?
"Uh! This..."
In fact, not only was Green Hair dumbfounded on the spot when he saw the number on the screen, but Qin Fanghuai also widened his eyes in shock, truly unable to believe what he was seeing.
"Young Master Ling, are you really only exchanging for five hundred yuan in chips?"
At this mont, Green Hair, although filled with surprise, still dared not jump to conclusions about Ling Zhenfei's identity and origins, and hesitantly asked him.
"Of course!"
Ling Zhenfei maintained a calm deanor as he stared at the bank card inserted into the BOS machine, as if he were lovingly gazing at his beloved.
What was more, the firmness in his voice when he replied to Green Hair made one doubt whether their eyes had misread the figures displayed by the BOS machine.
"Uh!"
Green Hair rubbed his eyes and took another earnest look at the BOS machine.
After confirming he had not misread the string of numbers, he then wordlessly told the receptionist, "You heard him, hurry up and exchange the chips!"
Bringing just five hundred yuan to a high-end casino like this, if Ling Zhenfei claid he was the first, probably no one would dare to imitate him.
However, Ling Zhenfei seed not to care at all about how others viewed him. After receiving the chips from the receptionist, he even smiled at Green Hair and said, "You go about your business, this betting capital is enough for to have fun with for a while today!"
With a re five hundred yuan in capital, wanting to play for a while might not even last a single round, right?
Seeing Ling Zhenfei's smug look, Green Hair was so annoyed he really wanted to slap himself hard.
What exactly was this kid... playing at?
Was he concealed and deep, feigning ignorance to play a tiger in sheep's clothing, or was he genuinely clueless, deliberately making a fool of his family's casino?
Green Hair was profoundly perplexed, but from his years of experience in the field, Ling Zhenfei's behavior was definitely not that of a simpleton or an idiot.
If that was the case, then his purpose for coming here... was it deliberately to take a sweep at the casino's setup?
Thinking about it, Green Hair felt that this was no ordinary matter. He needed to keep a close watch on this youngster and not let him stir up trouble in the casino, or it would be disastrous if he ended up losing his livelihood!
"Young Master Ling, look, this... with only this little betting capital, isn't it... a little too small?"
As Ling Zhenfei strolled around with Qin Fanghuai, yet to decide at which poker table to place their bets, Qin Fanghuai's expression seed even more anxious than before. Looking at the paltry number of chips in Ling Zhenfei's hand, he frowned and said with a pained expression.
"Too little? Ha, it seems it is indeed a bit too little!"
Ling Zhenfei chuckled as he tossed the chips into the air, then turned his head to look at Green Hair, who was staring intently at him from not far away, showing a hint of intentionally provocative expression:
"Doctor Qin, what you don't know is that compared to others, this money is indeed a bit short, but don't worry because you'll soon understand what 'every little makes a mickle, and streams co together to form a river' ans!"
In fact, as soon as Ling Zhenfei had entered the casino, he had used the Perspective Divine Eye to scan the surroundings a few tis.
The effect of the Clear Vision Perspective Eye was indeed more potent than X-rays. After what seed like a casual glance around, Ling Zhenfei had all the hidden surveillance caras' locations throughout the casino corners thoroughly mapped out.
Installing caras was no longer a secret for casinos. Most decent casinos would have caras installed to prevent various accidents, keeping a real-ti watch on the patrons.
However, what exactly these caras were used for and whether they were truly providing a ans for the casino to cheat was a question that probably only the casino managent knew the answer to.
Ling Zhenfei initially thought there might be so advanced high-tech equipnt in the casino that he had been worried about beforehand. He had specially circled around the tables, primarily using the Perspective Eye to inspect the poker cards, the shufflers, and the tabletops. Fortunately, none of these devices appeared in any of the gas.
Clearly, Golden Teeth had so confidence in his casino. He probably knew very well what the consequences would be if soone found out he had been tampering with the gambling equipnt. Therefore, he didn't resort to such easily fraudulent thods that would easily con the punters.
But if Golden Teeth had not used high-tech ans, then how could Qin Fanghuai have lost so much money continuously in his establishnt?
Could it really be that Qin Fanghuai lacked gambling skills and luck?
Ha, impossible...
No sooner had this question surfaced in Ling Zhenfei's mind than he dismissed it himself.
"Nine out of ten gamblers lose; nine out of ten are deceived," is an eternal truth in gambling. No gambler can always win in the casino by purely relying on superior gambling skills or luck.
Similarly, no gambler will always lose due to poor skills or bad luck either!
Obviously, the process of Qin Fanghuai's gambling was fraught with conspicuous conspiracy. And this flavor matched the style of any shady casino fishing for suckers.
There must be cheating going on in Golden Teeth's casino, but if they weren't using high-tech thods to cheat, then what could it be?
Could it be... the ans of cheating used in the casino... were people?
The casino managent might have arranged for their insiders to masquerade as gamblers and then collude with the croupiers to specifically fleece the naïve punters.
This guess was very likely.
