Chapter 123： Locke's Lady Luck

otherwise……

Pepper Potts looked at Gwen who was watching Locke's eyes next to him, shook his head inwardly, and lost the thought in his mind.

"sit down."

"thanks."

Pepper returned to his senses, smiled, and invited Gwen to the ladies' group over there, introducing the wives of several successful people here.

Gwen is treated generously.

Pepper couldn't help but take a few more glances, dealing with the fluent Gwen.

Locke too.

Gwen too.

It seems that these two people are probably the top figures of Zhongcheng University in the next three years.

Pepper thought so.

Stark Industries is also a member of the board of directors of Midtown University. Howard Stark has always supported education as an investment. However, when it comes to Tony Stark, basically, the affairs of Midtown University are all about Pepper is in charge.

When Locke, who was sitting at the gaming table, saw that Gwen was not bullied, he also withdrew his gaze and turned his attention to the front.

Open the bottom card.

"Mr. Joshua, two pairs!"

"Mr. Broughton, Sunja."

"Shunja wins!"

Locke looked at the chips pushed by the croupier in front of him, and looked at the opposite Mr. Joshua from the largest lumber company in Nevada, with a smile: "It seems that Mr. Joshua is afraid that I will change the chips. , so, you gave me money on purpose."

It's no wonder that professional gamblers want to play such high-quality games.

This is not for gambling, this special meow is just here to pick up money.

have a look.

With two pair, dare to directly bet five million?

This is not a little sheep anymore.

This is a fat pig.

Several people at the gaming table listened to Locke's ridicule and couldn't help but gave out friendly smiles.

Joshua, who should be in his fifties, also laughed twice: "There is no way, Mr. Stark can wait so long, if he is out of the game at once, I am afraid it is not good."

Locke smiled: "But if you want to play with Mr. Stark, I'm afraid my ten million won't be enough, or is Mr. Joshur sending some?"

Joshurpi smiled and continued: "Young man, you're welcome, okay, ten million!"

talking.

Joshua threw 10 million chips directly onto the gaming table.

Locke raised his eyebrows.

Joshuer saw this: "Why, are you timid?"

Locke smiled, pushed down the chips in his hand, and looked at Joshua with a smile: "No, I was just thinking, I feel that this is not winning money, but robbing money."

Joshua looked at the smile on Locke's face: "Young man, you haven't seen your cards yet."

Locke shrugged: "I believe the goddess of luck has been watching over me."

"Don't cry if you lose."

"Then you have to lose."

Locke crossed his hands and stared at Joshur, who was undoubtedly a flying pig in his eyes: "I haven't cried in my limited memory since the moment I opened my eyes, if this Once I cried, trust me, Mr. Joshur, you'll know, what you're seeing is going to be a miracle."

Several people sent out a friendly smile again.

Joshua narrowed his eyes: "Young man, don't be too young and aggressive."

Locke tilted his head and looked at Joshua: "I really want to hear someone say this, you know, how did I answer him?"

This is very familiar.

Locke looked at Joshua, opened his trump card, and looked at Joshur: "I told him that he is not young and vigorous, so can he still be called a young man?"

Joshua: "..."

This question has been answered by an ancestor.

And it's still a full-fledged answer.

Locke naturally knew how to answer.

"Mr. Joshua, three!"

"Mr. Broughton, Sunja!"

"Shunzi wins."

Locke smiled and looked at the chips that went back and forth again, and doubled the chips, and looked at Joshua: "Mr. Joshur, I'm right, the goddess of luck has been looking after me."

He didn't roar at all.

Only happy.

If it is said that if you don't reach out and hit the smiling man, then Locke can also stretch out his hand and not hit the rich man.

have a look.

This time, it's directly 20 million.

MMP.

Locke and S.H.I.E.L.D. fought wits and bravery, and how much money did they get when they lost their old nose?

good guy.

really.

In the eyes of these people, 10 million, I am afraid it is of the same nature as 10,000 yuan, it is a bunch of numbers.

but……

I like!

Joshua, who was sitting opposite, blushed slightly.

Happy, who was sitting next to him, slapped a haha: "Mr. Joe Hull, let me introduce, Lock Broughton, two months ago, brought the FBI and the Homeland Security Agency to the federal court, causing a stir throughout New York and the United States. Most of the federation belongs to him."

Everyone present, except Tony Stark, all looked at Locke and changed their faces slightly.

after all……

They thought it was a licking dog kneeling and licking Tony Stark.

I didn't expect... there's a lot going on.

From a certain point of view, Locke is indeed a celebrity in the Federation, and, in various societies, he has a certain reputation.

sued the FBI.

There are also lawsuits against Homeland Security.

But the person who can force the FBI to sign a memorandum of understanding, and even let the Homeland Security Bureau declare guilt and make a large compensation, cannot be said to have never followed, but it can be said to be unprecedented.

the most important.

Locke is still alive and well.

Although this has not yet reached the future, it can be said in advance that there will be no future comers.

Joshua took a deep breath, eased his face, and smiled again: "Young man, good luck is good, but, you must know, luck will not always be on your side."

Locke on the opposite side will definitely not give him steps. He has no choice but to find the steps by himself.

Are today's young people so arrogant?

No respect for people at all?

but……

How could Locke see the slaughtered fat pig run away, and didn't plan to give this step at all: "Sorry, my luck is constant, but it seems that Mr. Joshua's luck is not very good. ,today."

In his dictionary there is the word respect for the old and love for the young.

but……

If you want Locke to respect the old and love the young, the premise is that the other party must also know how to respect the old and love the young.

I'm only sixteen years old, as long as it's midnight tonight, I'm still a cute age, I'm still a child, you don't love the young anymore, why should I respect the old?

"not to mention……"

Locke's eyes looked at Gwen over there.

Gwen really sat in the chair and talked with the four capitalist ladies with a relaxed expression and a chaotic tone.

Seemingly aware of Locke's gaze, Gwen closed his voice and looked at Locke curiously.

The corners of Locke's mouth rose, showing a bright smile: "My goddess of luck, when I came to New York, was already found by me. The goddess of luck is by my side, how could she leave me?"

Indeed it is.

Since the day Locke came to New York and met Gwen, it seemed that the whole world had changed at once.

Locke felt that his career had entered a fast lane.

The daily tasks of Midtown College and the harvest in the past few months have caught up with the progress of Texas in one year.

And now?

If Gwen hadn't said he wanted to come, Locke didn't want to come.

If you don't come, then, this time, you can earn more than 50,000 achievement points and potential points, and tasks that are not at all troublesome will fly.

The most important thing.

If you don't come, it's unlikely that you will meet someone of this level and rush to give him money.

Along with Locke's statement as the one who stated the facts, several people present couldn't help but look at Gwen over there.

Gwen stared at the look in the eyes of the gaming table coming over, and was stunned for a moment, then smiled embarrassedly.

"It really is the goddess of luck."

"Unfortunately, only Mr. Broughton's."

"Haha, I said, no wonder Mr. Broughton is so aura, it turns out that Goddess of Luck is present."

One of them complained about Joe Huer: "Old Joe, you say you are too, young people, not your employees, you eat your way, now the times have changed, in the future, the world will be Broughton The world of young people like Mr.

Joshua smiled stiffly.

A few people said a few words, found a reason for the past, and directly gave Joshua a ladder, so that Joshur, who could not get down, seized the opportunity and slid down.

"Come, come, drink, drink!"

Happy called the attendant and joked at Locke: "Mr. Broughton, you will see red when you open the door. There is not much time. What would you like to drink?"

In that scene just now, who would dare to treat Locke as a sixteen-year-old high school student.

Joshua treats Locke as if he were sixteen.

The results of it?

Lost 15 million directly to Locke.

mad.

Almost five years of my salary.

Happy is also a little envious of this, but his cards are really bad, and he can't find a suitable opportunity if he wants to.

"Bourbon."

"Okay, just Bourbon."

At this time, Tony Stark, who has been with him for two rounds and has not spoken, finally ran out to check his presence: "Pepper, take my bottle of boben."

Pepper, who was also jokingly trying to tell the beautiful story of Gwen and Locke's youth from Gwen's mouth, responded, got up, walked to the wine cabinet, and took out a bottle of bourbon without any indication. .

after awhile.

Locke shook the glass, lowered his head, took a sip, and opened it: "Thunder?"

Tony looked at Locke: "Yes, Thunder Bourbon, the first year after the Thunder Distillery was built, so far, there are only twelve boxes left in the world Two years ago, the auction, I All inclusive."

It was your dog thing.

Locke raised his eyebrows.

He started drinking at the age of twelve in his life. After tasting it, he fell in love with bourbon, especially the Thunder brand.

Then……

Two years ago, Black Market Auctions rumoured the first-year Thunder Bourbon auction.

Put it this way.

The money that Locke used to buy the Xingchen Building was originally reserved for the auction of these twelve boxes of bourbon.

but……

There was a fool who raised the price to 200 million.

Locke lost!
