Chapter 1251 – Change a casino chip for me
Early morning.
4 am.
The crowd in the lobby dispersed as the ‘Zero Commission’ promotion was going to start.
A few moments later, the casino staff announced the start of the promotion.
“It has started!”
“Let’s go!”
“I am going to exchange for more chips.”
“Hurry, Old Zhang. We are waiting for you.”
“Over here, Old Li! Come and play together.”
The guests were excited, and they stopped playing at the slot machines. All of them rushed to the baccarat, roulette, and blackjack tables. A few went to the VIP rooms. This was a rare opportunity, and they didn’t want to miss it. Who knows when the Casino will hold another promotion? It’s OK if their bets were small. They will save a lot if they bet big.
The guests went to the various tables.
Zhang Longjuan, Dong Xuebing, and the twins remained.
Dong Xuebing pulled them to the smoking area and lit a cigarette for Zhang Longjuan. He also lit one for himself.
Shen Xiaomei asked. “Mr. Dong, you…”
Zhang Longjuan laughed. “Xiao Dong was scaring him.”
Dong Xuebing interrupted. “I am not scaring him. I mean it.”
“Save it.” Zhang Longjuan smacked his head. “I can tell you do not frequent casinos. How are you going to win a hundred million USD from them?”
Dong Xuebing said. “This has nothing to do if I go to the casinos often or not.”
Shen Xiaoyan added. “It will be difficult for you to win a hundred million USD.”
Shen Xiaomei said. “Even Ms. Zhang, who is so good at gambling, lost to them. I don’t think you can do it.”
“Let’s go.” Zhang Longjuan snubbed her cigarette and got up. She pulled Dong Xuebing. “Let’s go back.”
Dong Xuebing did not move. He was thinking about it.
Zhang Longjuan saw him not moving and giggled. “What do you want now? Do you want me to carry you? Haha…”
Dong Xuebing was speechless. “How can you joke at this time?”
Zhang Longjuan replied. “Why can’t I joke? Losing is not a big deal. They might have ganged against me, and my luck was not good either.”
Dong Xuebing shook her head. “I cannot accept this.”
Zhang Longjuan stopped smiling. “You got to accept it. We still have a chance to get back at them in the future.”
“I cannot wait. You should know my character. I don’t wait for revenge. I must settle this score now and will not wait a minute more.” Dong Xuebing firmly replied.
“What are you going to do then?” Zhang Longjuan looked at him.
Dong Xuebing replied with a determined look. “We will continue to gamble. I will gamble this time.”
Shen Xiaomei smacked her lips and said. “Ms. Zhang had lost everything. Do you think she will not continue if she still has money?”
Zhang Longjuan nodded. “Our suitcases and pockets are empty. I am broke now. Haha.”
Dong Xuebing thought for a second and took out his wallet.
Shen Xiaoyan looked at Dong Xuebing and said. “The casino does not accept credit cards.”
“I am not using cards.” Dong Xuebing took out his cash and started counting. He counted the notes and started counting the coins. After counting, he looked at the rest. “I got 1,328 RMB. I did not withdraw money before boarding, and this is all I got. Sis Mei, Sis Yan, and Sis Zhang, how much cash do you have?”
Zhang Longjuan was speechless. “What are you trying to do, brat?”
Dong Xuebing replied. “Pool our money and continue gambling.”
“But how much can you get?” Zhang Longjuan replied. “I don’t have much cash with me. I cannot even change the lowest denomination chip.”
Dong Xuebing insisted. “Let’s try. Sis Yan, Sis Mei.”
Shen Xiaomei almost fainted. Pooled their spare change to gamble?
What can they do even if they raise enough to change a casino chip? How much can they win?
Dong Xuebing hurried them. “Take out your money.”
Shen Xiaoyan saw Dong Xuebing was not giving up and took out her wallet. Other people nearby were looking at them, making her blush. They had millions of USD a few hours ago and are down to this situation now. Shen Xiaoyan took out all her money and gave it to Dong Xuebing. “This is all I have. It’s all in HKD.”
Shen Xiaomei hesitated for a while and gave in. She took out all her money and gave it to Dong Xuebing. “I don’t have much either, and it is all in HKD.”
The sisters only got a few hundred HKD.
Dong Xuebing was disappointed. “How come so little?”
Shen Xiaomei rolled her eyes. “I used my money to buy medication for you and did not withdraw from the ATM.”
Shen Xiaoyan said. “I spent it on petrol, phone bills, and…”
Dong Xuebing interrupted. “Err… take out all your coins. Don’t keep anything now. Let’s try to pool all our money together.”
Coins?
You also want coins?
Shen Xiaoyan and Shen Xiaoyan were dumbfounded. They took out a few coins from her wallet.
Zhang Longjuan looked at them speechlessly. But the twins had taken out all their money, and she also took out her wallet. She counted her money and said. “I got USD but only slightly more than 600 USD. Ah, I got some change too. It’s not even 700 USD.”
So little?
Dong Xuebing: “……”
Zhang Longjuan saw his expression and said. “I usually use credit cards and seldom bring cash out. More than 600 USD is a lot.”
USD…
HKD…
RMB…
Coins…
It was messy, but Dong Xuebing counted everything. He checked the exchange rates for HKD and RMB against USD.
If it were a few days ago, he would be short of a few dollars.
But if he used yesterday’s rates, they got precisely 1,000 USD.
“All right. It’s enough.” Dong Xuebing smiled.
Shen Xiaoyan was speechless. She did not expect Dong Xuebing to smile. “Are you sure you are going to gamble with these?”
“Of course. Why would I ask you all to pool all our money if I am not going to gamble? A single chip is enough. I will try my best.” Dong Xuebing said confidently.
Shen Xiaomei does not know where he got his confidence from. That’s the smallest denomination, and the Casino might not even exchange for him.
Dong Xuebing did not say anything was walked to counter 5. He put his money on the counter and said. “I want to exchange a chip.”
The female staff looked at the money. RMB, USD, HKD, and coins from different currencies. She was speechless.
