Vol 4 Chapter 39: The game starts now! (on)

"Master Loren Turin, Miss Lena, the two of you are here, let me find them for a long time!"
The smiling President Clermont was haunted, and he stood at the black-haired wizard's table without any sound: "I don't know if I am satisfied with the banquet tonight, please speak if you like something."
"Although the auction will not start until the middle of the night, if Lord Loren and Miss Lena speak, we will stay for the two anyway!"
Looking back, the dark-haired wizard had a formal smile on his mouth, but his gaze was completely on a young man beside President Clermont, his staring eyes also staring at him.
Scattered brown-black short curly hair, dark pupils and slight curling with a trace of indelible pride; turquoise brooch pinned to the chest, young man wearing a red and black Byrne long-sleeved open collar Chinese dress with his hands behind his back , The slender figure is as tall as loose.
Zhang Yang is not high-profile, but arrogant but knows how to converge ... From head to toe, it gives people an indescribable arrogant princely temperament. It is totally unexpected that he is just a son who has no knighthood, and the president of the chamber of commerce has no slight sense of market wandering.
"First meeting, Viscount Loren Turin."
The young man with a raised mouth directly ignored President Clermont who was still chattering next to him, and said first: "The father below is the president of the Jodhpur Chamber of Commerce. If you can, you can call me Little Jodd. "
With that said, he extended his right hand directly: "I am your opponent tonight, please advise me!"
The smiling black-haired wizard shook hands with him and glanced at the air where he was hanging. Somewhat awkward President Clermont ... It seemed like all rich young masters, this one also ignored other people's problems.
But how to say ... It is natural from head to toe, unpretentious, and does not make people feel disgusted.
"You are so polite, I am just a little wizard."
Loren's performance is very indifferent, and does not have excessive enthusiasm; he has no friendship with the other party, and he does not intend to have much relationship with a big money master of Byrne.
After Brandon formally married Countess Charlotte, he really should consider how to deal with them, but it is definitely not now.
"The majestic wizard advisors and honourable viscounts are just 'little wizards', what about us 'little merchants'?"
Xiao Yide's hearty laugh came out: "It's not a good thing to be too modest, Lord Loren; I have heard that you have defeated the newly succeeded Earl Charn in the chess game tonight, and still Fiasco! "
"Oh ... I remember the last time he lost this virtue, it was already a few years ago ... Clermont, what did you say?"
"That was five years ago ... Today, Earl Charn's chess is not only the capital of the emperor, it is one of the best in the entire empire; there are few who can win."
President Clermont was not annoyed at all, as if the person who called him by name was not him, but instead nodded with a smile: "Lord Loren can make him lose heart and mouth, obviously the level is several levels higher than the earl! "
He certainly has the capital to despise President Clermont-the Gem Chamber of Commerce that controls the trade between West Sacran and Ebden, perhaps a large chamber of commerce in the north of the empire, but even with gold mining rights Compared with the German-Chinese Chamber of Commerce, it is nothing!
If it weren't for the casino's involvement with many nobles of the upper empire, and even the long-established nobles such as the Zahn family, Jody would not even want to deal with them.
Even Loren, for him, was just barely able to get in the eye ... The cronies next to His Royal Highness were also the only reason for him to make good humiliation; in the Principality of Byrne, wanting to discuss business with the Jorde business is at least The earl had to come forward in person.
In a ghost place as poor and far away as Arles, if it was not the Grand Duke of Arles and Governor Byrne who spoke in person, the Jodd Chamber of Commerce was too lazy to do business there with the Chamber of Commerce stationed in them, operating the pitiful leather and iron ore trade for them.
With the capital of the chamber of commerce and the backing of the mine, the branches of the Jodhpur Chamber of Commerce have already spread all over the south, and they have even begun to gradually advance to the north-the small heir as the heir of the chamber of commerce appeared in the imperial capital, which is part of the expansion plan of the Jodhpur chamber.
He knew that Dad sent himself to Golovin, not only for slapping these Northern Chambers of Commerce, but for a longer-term purpose.
In the past few hundred years, the bulk trade in the north has always been monopolized by the free aristocracy of Eboden and their ocean-going fleet. It is difficult for these southern chambers of commerce to want to step into the sky, and all of them are Ebden merchants when they cross the Principality of Elleman. Site.
But the present is different in the past ... The Holy Blood Elixir event seriously hurt Eboden, many free nobles were cut off their heads, and commercial nobles such as the Bellini family were almost wiped out.
This is a golden opportunity for the Jodhpur Chamber of Commerce!
As long as they can successfully persuade the aristocratic House and Imperial Cabinet of the Royal Capital, and get the help of the Chamber of Commerce of all sizes in Golovin, the Jodhpur Chamber of Commerce can take the lead in occupying the gap left by them before Eboden has recovered.
It even ... stretched its tentacles to the legendary ocean-going fleet, spreading the branch of the chamber of commerce to the empire overseas ...
Thinking of the little Yoder here, looking at Loren's eyes was even more eager.
Loren, who was deliberately "touted" by the two, flattened the corner of his mouth slightly: "Good luck."
"Whether it's good luck or not, I will never play chess with you anyway-it's so boring, even a game of one million will take two or three quarters to see the difference!"
With an impatient attitude, Little Yoder blinked with his hands: "If I said that since it is gambling, it should be all based on luck ... Lord Loren, are you interested in playing a dice?"
"Of course, I do n’t mind accompanying you to the next game or to decide whether to win or lose with cards ... if you are not confident in your luck, after all ... if you lose too badly, Miss Lina will be with you Light? "
Speaking of which, he also deliberately glanced at the expressionless "black frame glasses" deliberately, as if to suggest something.
Obviously, it was aggressive, but the little Yood in front of him said that he was considering for Loren, of course.
Loren smiled indifferently, and said nothing.
This is an absolutely asymmetric "fight"-even if you really can win two million silver coins from the hands of Jody, it is not painful for such a family that sits in the gold mining and metallurgy industry. .
But switching to yourself ... not to mention two million, even if you want to get 500,000, it is very difficult; once the news of your huge debt is exposed, the blow to Brandon's reputation is absolutely fatal.
Although relying on the relationship between the two sides, it is not difficult for Brandon to help himself find a way to walk through the sky dome and help himself to relieve his debts. However, the mutually beneficial relationship between the two parties was completely broken, and he owed him one. Never Qingren's favor!
After being "tortured" by Asriel again and again, Loren absolutely does not want to carry this kind of "human debt" anymore.
"Otherwise ... How about taking a step back and dividing the game into two games?"
President Clermont, who was always left aside, inserted again to propose: "The first game is to roll the dice, and the second game is to be replaced with a card ... This will have both luck and technical skills. how is it?"
"I'm fine ~ EbookFREE.me ~ As long as Viscount Loren agrees!" Little Yoder laughed heartily and waved his hand happily: "But since President Clermont has already biased the rules towards Loren Your Excellency, can I bet on each game? "
"No problem." The calm-looking Loren agreed very decisively: "I don't know how much you want to bet?"
"Then ... half a million."
The smile on Xiaoyuede's face grew stronger, and the teeth of his mouth showed tiger teeth: "According to the dice roll, one half a million."
"Of course, no matter how much you win or lose, I will play a card with you again, as long as ... you still have that mood when the time comes, how?"
Loren did not answer directly, but looked back at Lina behind him. The "black frame glasses" were still expressionless, but at the moment he turned his head, he deliberately avoided his gaze.
interesting……
At the next moment, the dark-haired wizard who took a deep breath turned around with a big smile on his face:
"no problem!"
