章 44: 044 Old Huang
The next day.
This time Zhang Jingshan did not rush early.
After all, the gambling stone fields in the western suburbs are only busy in the afternoon. So when the Land Rover appeared at the intersection of Dongpu Street.
It was already noon. It was just as Ye Chen expected.
Since Zhang Jingshan didn't drive that bright red Porsche Panamera, he must have taken Li Changfeng with him.
"Mr. Ye!"
As soon as Ye Chen got in the car, the two of them laughed and shouted behind him.
"Mr. Zhang, Mr. Li, thank you for what happened yesterday!"
Ye Chen, who was sitting in the back seat, spoke immediately.
"Mr. Ye, there's nothing to thank me for. Putting aside the fact that you're my savior, Wang Tao's actions have long touched my bottom line. Before, it was only because of our so-called kinship and the fact that I couldn't find a suitable opportunity to get rid of him that I tolerated him again and again. Yesterday's incident happened and I had the opportunity and the reason!" Li Changfeng said with a smile.
"Lao Zhang, this is the wisest choice you've made since the first day I met you! As for that idiot, really, if you don't let him get out, he will kill you sooner or later!
Zhang Jingshan said while steering. Li Changfeng smiled and didn't dwell on this issue any further.
Changing the subject, "Mr. Ye, have you ever been involved in gambling on stones before?"
"It's not a matter of contact or not. I went to join in the fun a few times, but I never took action!" Ye Chen replied.
In the past, he had indeed gone to join in the fun a few times.
The reason I didn't do it was not because I didn't want to, but because I didn't have the money.
After all, it would cost tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of stones, which is not something that someone of his level can afford.
I went there just to see the excitement and to see what the market was like.
"What about you this time?" Li Changfeng asked doubtfully.
Zhang Jingshan also pricked up his ears when he heard this.
Ye Chen shook his head and smiled.
He knew what the other person was thinking.
"Just because I've never played it before, I want to give it a try!"
Hear this.
Zhang Jingshan and Li Changfeng should have been puzzled.
But after seeing the indifferent look on Ye Chen's face, the curiosity in her heart was aroused again.
They really wanted to see if this guy's intuition was really that amazing.
After some casual chat along the way.
Western suburbs, here we are.
Outside a large bungalow that has nothing to do with luxury.
Dozens of cars of all kinds and grades were parked there, including Ferrari, Porsche, Mercedes-Benz and Land Rover.
There are also some cheap commuter cars that cost tens of thousands of yuan. There are even taxis.
The Land Rover stopped.
Zhang Jingshan, who was familiar with the place, took Ye Chen and Li Changfeng, who was visiting such a place for the first time, directly into the bungalow.
"Hey, Mr. Zhang is here!"
"Mr. Zhang, long time no see!"
"Boss Zhang, when will you take me to meet those beautiful anchors in your company? Haha!"
"Mr. Zhang..."
"Mr. Zhang..."
As soon as Zhang Jingshan, who had a good relationship with people, showed up, all kinds of monsters and demons immediately greeted him with smiles.
"Hmm? Damn, Ye Chen is really your boy. I thought I recognized the wrong person. When did you get close to a big shot like Mr. Zhang?"
Suddenly, a thin man came over after making sure that he was not dazzled.
"Mr. Ye, your friend?"
Zhang Jingshan asked in surprise.
"A friend from my past playing cards!" Ye Chen explained. Ye Chen was not surprised at all by the appearance of this gambling friend.
On this day in his previous life, Ye Chen came with him to join in the fun.
"Oh, okay. You guys chat first. I'll go over and say hello. We'll meet up later." Zhang Jingshan said.
After saying that, he patted Ye Chen on the shoulder and continued to walk inside with Li Changfeng.
"Fuck, Ye Chen, how did you get to know someone like Mr. Zhang? The CEO of Yunshan Network, the grandson of the former municipal party secretary, the prince of Yongan Construction Company, no, a gambler like you who can't even afford to eat, how did you get to know such a person?"
The gambler looked as if he had seen a ghost and kept screaming.
"What do you mean by a gambler like me who can't even afford to eat? Are you much better than me?"
Ye Chen rolled his eyes at the other person and said unhappily.
"Well, we are both the same, both the same!"
The gambler coughed dryly, then turned serious and said, "You have a lot of opportunities in the future if you can get close to such a person. You can follow the big shot, even if you are just a lackey, and your future will be bright! Don't gamble anymore, don't think about getting rich at the gambling table anymore.
Over the years, we have been both wanderers in the world, but in the end, we have nothing but our wives and children separated! So you must seize this opportunity, live like a human being, and stop gambling and drinking!"
"Old Huang, what's wrong with you today? Are you drunk again? Why do these words sound so awkward to me when they come out of your mouth?" Ye Chen was stunned.
I have known this gambler friend for several years. Although we cannot be considered close friends, I only know his name as Lao Huang. Although we cannot be considered close friends, I have a basic understanding of him and know that he is the same as my past self.
So he was really surprised to hear these words coming from the mouth of a gambler like that.
Moreover, I came with him on this day in my previous life, and I didn't see anything abnormal from him.
"Fuck, do you smell alcohol? The reason I'm telling you this is not because I'm drunk, but because I see hope for your life to start over! If you're still the same as before, I definitely won't talk about this, why? Because people like us are all left over by the Jade Emperor. To put it in a more artistic way, we've jumped out of the Three Realms and are no longer in the Six Paths. We're just fucking scum, trash, and mud!
"In fact, we all understand those principles, but we just can't control our hearts and hands. The poorer we are, the more we want to gamble, and the poorer we are, the more we want to get rich by gambling. If I could get lucky and climb up the social ladder, I would definitely quit gambling! But I just don't have that kind of luck, so I'll just degenerate to the bottom. Anyway, my wife and children are gone, and I have nothing to lose!"
Old Huang sighed bitterly with deep emotion.
As he said, every gambler understands these principles, and every gambler is more rational and sober than anyone else when repenting.
But after repenting, he couldn't control his heart and hands. It was exactly as the saying goes, the poorer you are, the more you want to get rich by gambling. The more you gamble, the poorer you become, and you keep falling into that vicious circle.
"But you are different now. You have found a high branch to climb, like Mr. Zhang. If you follow him, you won't have to worry about anything. If you work hard, he will definitely treat you well! So be good, and remember, don't gamble again after you get out of this mess. That thing will never end well. I have no hope. It's the same dead end whether I gamble or not. I might as well just go down this path till the end!" Old Huang said again.
"Okay, let's not talk about that!"
Ye Chen smiled bitterly with mixed feelings and shook his head.
He asked knowingly, "Tell me, are you here to get rich gambling on stones?"
On this day in his previous life, he followed Lao Huang to watch the fun, but Lao Huang was risking his entire fortune.
Of course, on this day in his previous life, Lao Huang lost everything.
Ye Chen was quite curious at the time how this guy suddenly took out hundreds of thousands of dollars.
But in the end he didn't ask any more questions. He only remembered that Old Huang collapsed on the ground with a deathly pale and desperate look on his face.
The last image that Lao Huang left him was of him leaving the gambling stone field with numb and empty eyes, like a walking corpse.
No matter how much I called out from behind, the other party didn't respond.
Since then, I have never seen Lao Huang again...
