"Madam, they're in the casino now. Should we continue watching?" Liu Ye was a bit helpless. She really couldn't understand why the Madam kept her eyes on that guy, and even wasted her money.
He had just given them fifty thousand taels, and now that he had reached the casino in the blink of an eye, he had no intention of returning them.
"There's no need for that today. I'll go over again tomorrow to take a look." Song Xiangsi was also surprised. When she found out that she owed so much money, her first reaction was not to return the money, but to go to the casino instead. Did she not know that it would increase to 50,000 taels in the next two days?
The reason why usury was called usury was because the interest was too high. The reason why he had paid more was definitely not because he pitied Tang Yi.
Initially, he thought that the other party would be able to remain upright and upright. However, it seems that he had underestimated him, leaving him with no other choice.
Tang Yi bought the silver and let the brothers play on their own. He had also specially found a place to play. One must know that he had plenty of silver today. He did not believe that he would not be able to win!
"Master, I can easily tell that he's going to win a lot of money today." In the beginning, after winning a little bit of money, they all gave a tip to the waiters present. They were also people who had been in the martial arts world. Knowing that Tang Yi was very rich today, they all came over to say good words.
"Sigh …" At the beginning, it was pretty good, but after losing four or five times in a row, Tang Yi's mood collapsed. He knew he still owed a loan shark.
"Brother, what's wrong? Don't be angry. Don't you see that we still have money? As long as we insist on buying one, we will definitely win." At this time, Du Hai walked up to Tang Yi. He had already observed Tang Yi for a long time and lost several rounds in a row.
Tang Yi naturally knew of Du Hai's suggestion, but he didn't have any money left.
He had thirty thousand taels of silver with him, but he had to repay the loan with money that was of interest to him. He couldn't touch it!
"Brother Du Hai, you might not know this, but I still have other uses for the silver I have. I cannot use it today." Tang Yi could be considered to have some ideas. He only wanted to bring the twenty thousand taels to play with. He didn't expect to lose them all.
"Bro, this is what you don't understand, right? It's not like we've spent all our money. Besides, if you were to pay a portion of it, you can win back all the money you lost previously. Are you not going to do it?" Every word from Du Hai made Tang Yi feel that it made sense. While he was swaying from side to side, the one he had just bought didn't hit the mark again.
That was Tang Yi's final bet, and now he had really spent thirty thousand silver taels without a single cent left.
"Don't hesitate, bro. We only have one thing to ask you, do you want to win the money back?" This made Du Hai think of his previous self. He kept losing, but he would always win back, only at a painful price.
He knew that Tang Yi still had a lot of silver on him today. If he didn't win it back today, it would be like losing face here.
Plus, after guessing that the silver was from Song Xiangsi, his first reaction was that she was the Crown Prince's consort and must be very rich. This amount of silver was nothing to her.
"Alright, Brother Du Hai is right, but we have to be careful." Tang Yi steeled his heart. If he took out a thousand taels and was able to win back the ones he lost before, he would be willing to do so. Thus, he could only take his time to slowly earn them back.
Under Du Hai's lead, they finally won two matches, but they were still short of 20,000 taels, so they still needed to place an even bigger bet.
"Aiya, brother, although we just won two matches, our single bet is too small, and the amount of money that we won back is also not that much. "According to what I said, if the bet was 10 million silver, then our money would have been returned long ago."
Du Hai was also a generous person, but his analysis was reasonable. Those two were indeed the victors. However, he won due to good luck, causing Tang Yi to waver once again.
He desperately needed money. If he could win more money today, he would have lots of fun in the future. Adding on to the fact that Du Hai kept on teaching him, he finally gave up on the bottom line of thirty thousand taels of silver.
He changed all his silver into chips and found another table to play with.
Du Hai accompanied Tang Yi at his side and continuously gave him advice. In the first few rounds, the situation was slightly better, allowing Tang Yi to win quite a bit of money.
But then, Tang Yi saw that he really did transfer the goods, so he paid 10,000 taels of silver in one go. It had to be known that this amount was still a lot. Everyone present was dumbstruck.
The result was obvious. He had lost. He had lost completely.
Looking at the remaining thirty-six thousand taels of silver, Tang Yi felt that he still had a chance. He would definitely win all of his silver back.
Just like this, they sank deeper and deeper into the abyss. Tang Yi's silver was also getting lower and lower. Du Hai was also anxiously watching from the side. After a while, he directly left.
Du Hai knew that Tang Yi wouldn't be able to win back his silver today.
When Tang Yi realized that he had no money left, he was shocked. How could he have lost all his silver?
Didn't I just say that I would only take out twenty thousand to play with? How come I still have thirty thousand taels? Why was he so penniless now?
Besides this, he still owed his cousin a contract, and now he owed her 70,000 taels for no reason at all?
This was a huge blow to Tang Yi, but he still felt that there was hope. Anyway, her cousin had said that she wasn't short on money, so this small amount of money shouldn't be a problem for her.
"Where's Brother Du Hai?" As he was walking out of the casino, he suddenly realized that all his brothers who came with him were gone. Even Brother Du Hai seemed to have left early.
He must have been too engrossed in the game just now that he didn't even know his friend had left. If they had just told him to come with them, would he have lost so completely?
Tang Yi was very disappointed, but there was nothing he could do. He could only return to the manor.
Coincidentally, when he returned, he saw the prince. This was the first time he had seen him since coming to the capital.
"Nephew greets uncle." Tang Yi lowered his head, afraid that this experienced elder would be able to read something from his eyes. He was truly afraid of his uncle.
Nodding his head, the prince simply didn't have the mood to bother with these random people. It wasn't that he said that if Tang Yi hadn't taken the initiative to greet him, he would have forgotten that Princess Hua-Yang had such a relative.
It had been so long since they contacted each other. For them to suddenly visit this place, it was quite suspicious.
Tang Yi returned to his room, but couldn't fall asleep no matter how hard he tried. As he thought about what his cousin had said to him earlier in the day, he took out the contract he had signed and looked at it.
He had not read it carefully over there. Now, he guessed that there was a note at the end. Although it was written in a strange way, it said: All the rights to interpretation belong to Song Xiangsi.
