Chapter 838, 839 The opportunity to return home in glory
The banker has changed in front of the gambling table, and other gamblers continue to play, except Li Yang and a few others who did not follow.
Lin Bowen, who had been paying attention to Li Yang, immediately said hello to Bai Ming and others, and walked quickly towards Li Yang. Bai Ming and others who were playing happily at other gambling tables also gave up.
My own gambling game followed.
Li Yang's face suddenly showed a smile again, as did Li Can beside him.
Behind Aoki Weiyang and several Japanese experts, Zhou Wen in casual clothes and another familiar figure appeared. The fourth child, Li Pei, was indeed here, and they were really together.
Five people who were in the same dormitory at university, after being separated for three or four years, now meet here. This feeling of reunion after a long separation is difficult to express in words.
Looking at Li Yang's smile, Aoki Weiyang's heart skipped a beat again.
Yesterday, he reported the results of his meeting with Li Yang to the emperor, but only said that Li Yang was open-mouthed and that he was still working hard. He did not say that the other party threatened him. Li Yang's firm tone that day made him believe that Li Yang really showed up.
Unpleasant situation, Li Yang really dared to die together.
If he reports these words to the emperor, if anything happens to the Tiancongyun Sword, even if it is not his responsibility, he will have to take the blame for these things.
"Boss, Sixth Brother!"
From a distance, the fourth child, Li Pei, shouted and ran quickly towards Li Yang. At this time, in Li Yang's eyes, there were no such Japanese at all, only two good ones whom he had not seen for many years.
brother.
Zhou Wen and Li Pei didn't pay much attention to the people in front of them. There were too many people walking back and forth in the casino. The two of them used their feet to quickly surpass Aoki Weiyang and the others, and came directly to Li Yang's side.
"Fourth brother!"
Li Can yelled excitedly. He had the same feeling as Li Yang at this moment. He had been a dormitory friend for four years in college and could meet again in a foreign country after not seeing each other for several years. This kind of accident, this kind of surprise, has never been experienced before.
It is simply unimaginable to humans.
Aoki Wei, Mitsui Yasu and the short man among them were all stunned for a moment, and the short man's face showed a little anger.
Li Yang was smiling just now, and he thought he was smiling at himself, but now he realized that he was completely self-indulgent.
"Mr. Li Yang!"
The short man took a step forward and spoke to Li Yang in half-familiar Chinese. It took Li Yang more than ten seconds to react to this greeting. The other party's vague Chinese was calling him.
In terms of Chinese proficiency alone, this short man is far behind Mio Aoki and Yasurai Mitsui.
"Mr. Li, this is a former friend of mine, Taro Yamamoto. He is now doing business in Toronto. He has a certain share of this casino. He only found out that we came to Toronto after watching TV today and specially invited us to be our guests.
!”
Aoki Weiyang suddenly explained something. The words were very simple, but the meaning was clear. What he said showed that the appearance of the few of them here today was purely accidental. They did not follow Li Yang intentionally, let alone have any other ideas. Li Yang
Yang, don’t get me wrong.
Director Yamamoto?
Zhou Wen and Li Pei turned their heads, with a little surprise on their faces, and hurriedly lowered their heads. They were just running to see Li Yang and Li Can, and they didn't even notice that the director of the casino was next to them.
The total assets of this casino exceed one billion U.S. dollars. Taro Yamamoto is a director of the company, holding more than ten percent of the shares. Moreover, Taro Yamamoto is also one of the founders of the casino, and he has a high prestige here.
Yamamoto Taro just glanced at them and focused his attention on Li Yang, not paying attention to the two of them.
"Hello Mr. Yamamoto!"
Li Yang nodded slightly, responding to Aoki Weiyang's words, which made Aoki Weiyang feel a little more relaxed.
This time Li Yang spoke Japanese. Although it was not very standard, at least it was understandable to these Japanese people.
Seeing that Li Yang could speak Japanese, Yamamoto Taro's expression changed slightly. He also understood at this time that Li Yang must have heard what he said just now.
Taro Yamamoto casually glanced at Li Yang's chip plate and said with a smile: "Mr. Li is a young and handsome man. I didn't expect that his Japanese is so good, which is admirable. How is it? How did Mr. Li play today?"
The question he asked this time was in Japanese. It was just embarrassing to speak his poor Chinese, so he simply didn’t say it.
"It's okay. Aren't you guys busy? I won't bother you!"
Li Yang smiled and nodded. He came to the casino to relax and have fun. Meeting Zhou Wen and Li Pei here was purely accidental. Now he just wants to have a good chat with his bedfellows whom he hasn't seen for many years.
I have no intention of talking nonsense with Taro Yamamoto here.
These Japanese people can guess with their toes what their biggest purpose is when they see him.
Not to mention, Taro Yamamoto said it nakedly just now, and Li Yang didn't want to give them a chance at all.
Li Can had already pulled Zhou Wen and Li Pei along, chatting quietly. Li Can didn't understand a word of Japanese spoken by Li Yang and the others, so he simply ignored them.
However, Zhou Wen's eyes were a little surprised. He looked at Taro Yamamoto and then at Li Yang. Zhou Wen had been studying very hard. Recently, he was still learning Japanese by himself so that he could receive Japanese guests here in the future. He actually listened to what the two of them said.
Understand a little bit.
"you!"
Yamamoto Taro's face suddenly stiffened. He didn't expect that Li Yang would send him away without giving him any face.
Taro Yamamoto is Japanese. He only invested and did business in Canada and did not change his nationality. In Japan, he is a collector, so he knows Aoki Mio and others, but he just loves collecting, and his appraisal level is very average.
I know Mio Aoki and several experts because he once bid for some Japanese antiques at high prices and asked these experts to appraise them.
Taro Yamamoto had already heard about this treasure appraisal conference and knew that people from Japan would come, but he didn't pay much attention to it before.
After watching TV, he realized that the people who came had several acquaintances, so he sent someone to invite them to the casino. As a courtesy to the locals, he invited these domestic experts. If he has any treasures in the future, he can also invite them.
Several experts helped identify it.
Aoki Weiyang and the others were invited here, but no one expected that they would meet Li Yang again here.
Taro Yamamoto has been traveling around for many years. He suppressed the anger in his heart and smiled again on his face. He said softly: "Mr. Li, we have nothing to do. We just want to find a few people to play with. Mr. Li's place is too small.
Why don't you come with us and play some bigger ones?"
"Sorry, I don't gamble!" Li Yang rejected him without even thinking about it.
Yamamoto Taro almost stumbled, his eyes filled with anger, and he glared at Li Yang fiercely.
People who come to the casino say they don't want to gamble, so what are these chips? Moreover, they still occupy a seat, so they are obviously people who have played before. To say this to him at this time is purely an insult to his IQ.
"Mr. Yamamoto!"
There was a shout from the side. Lin Bowen had just walked over, but he hadn't spoken a word. It was his turn to appear now.
Taro Yamamoto seemed a little surprised when he saw Lin Bowen. He knew Lin Bowen. He was an outstanding descendant of the Lin family and Lin Lang's nephew.
The Lin family is a giant in Toronto, and they are the ones Taro Yamamoto strives to make friends with. He knows Li Lang and has also met Lin Bowen, and he recognized his identity at a glance.
"Hello, Mr. Lin, are you here to play today?"
Taro Yamamoto's expression changed very quickly, and he immediately greeted Lin Bowen with a smile. His attitude was much better than when he was facing Li Yang.
Lin Bowen waved his hand and said with a smile: "No, I am here with Mr. Li. Mr. Li is a distinguished guest of our Lin Group!"
Li Yang?
Taro Yamamoto immediately looked back at Li Yang, but there was some doubt in his eyes.
He only knew about Li Yang after watching TV, and he had just met Aoki Weiyang and the others, so he didn't know the relationship between the Lin family and Li Yang.
Lin Bowen stood directly next to Li Yang and looked at Taro Yamamoto with a smile. In the land of Toronto, the Lin Group is a golden sign. Even Taro Yamamoto, who has worked here for twenty years, dare not have it.
Any slight.
Bai Ming, Liu Jun and others also came back and stood beside Li Yang.
"It turns out that Mr. Li is a distinguished guest of the Lin Group. I'm sorry. I just wanted to invite Mr. Li to play a few games. If Mr. Li doesn't want to, forget it!"
Yamamoto Taro immediately bent over. With Lin Bowen here, all his rising anger was suppressed.
"Mr. Li, instead of gambling, how about we gamble on something?" Taro Yamamoto raised his body, changed his tone, and continued: "I know that Mr. Li is a big collector in China, and I happen to have a few good Chinese pieces.
Calligraphy and painting, if Mr. Li is willing, I will use these calligraphy and painting as a bet, what do you think?"
Li Yang smiled softly and shook his head again: "Sorry, I don't have any calligraphy or painting to use as a bet, so forget it!"
The weasel is paying New Year's greetings to the rooster. This Taro Yamamoto has no good intentions at all. He runs a casino, and his gambling skills must be good. He wants to ask a novice like him to gamble. Isn't this bullying?
Another point is that instead of gambling with money, you have to gamble with things, but Li Yang didn't bring anything. Every treasure he brought was a magic weapon, how could it be compared to the few calligraphy and paintings he brought.
Besides, Li Yang knew better than anyone else what he had in mind. Wasn't it the Soaring Congyun Sword? Li Yang never thought of giving him this chance.
"It doesn't matter. Mr. Li has nothing. You can use money to bet. I will bring out some treasures. Mr. Li, you can just pay the same value. What do you think?"
Yamamoto Taro followed up by saying something else. Before Li Yang could speak, Mitsui Yui's gloomy voice suddenly sounded: "Don't Mr. Li always think he is lucky? Gambling depends on luck. Could it be that Mr. Li is like this?"
Don’t you dare?”
Mitsui Yui usually likes to gamble, but just now he saw that Li Yang was a fool when it came to gambling, so he deliberately used words to provoke Li Yang.
Yamamoto Taro's eyes flashed, he stood there with a smile and did not speak. Mitsui Yui's words at this time helped him.
Provoking generals, this is a pure method of provoking generals.
Lin Bowen took a deep look at Mitsui Yui. He had a good impression of this person before, but now it was all gone. Mitsui Yasu and his son's trip to Toronto was a failure.
Mitsui Yasu looked at Li Yang gloomily and said nothing. From this point alone, it can be seen that he supports his son. Otherwise, according to his character, he should at least be reprimanded.
Aoki Weiyang rolled her eyes and stood there quietly without any expression.
He has already explained that what happened next has nothing to do with him. Besides, this is a casino and gambling is normal here. Whether Li Yang agrees or not is all his business.
If he doesn't agree, he has nothing to lose. If he agrees, it will do him no harm.
Several people stood in the middle of the casino, no one said anything, and everyone looked at Li Yang quietly.
"Boss!" Zhou Wen suddenly shouted, and almost everyone's eyes were focused on him at this moment.
Zhou Wen continued calmly: "I just made a reservation at a hotel. We haven't seen each other for several years. Let's go have a drink!"
"Okay!" Li Yang nodded immediately and smiled wider.
There are six people in the same dormitory at the university. He is the oldest and the most prestigious person in the dormitory, but the one who studies best and is the smartest is Zhou Wen.
Zhou Wen saw that Li Yang really didn't want to tangle with these people, so he immediately helped Li Yang get rid of the situation. At this time, Mitsui Yui's provocation method was useless. Li Yang had something to do, and no one could say anything if he left at this time.
Yamamoto Taro's face slowly darkened.
The purpose of his invitation to Li Yang to 'play' was indeed not simple. He runs a casino and knows the psychology of gamblers best. Once many people fall into 'gambling', they will lose their minds and do things that are impossible to do in normal times.
Something happened.
Li Yang is not a gambler, but Yamamoto Taro is confident that as long as Li Yang is on the gambling table, he can train the opponent to become a gambler and take the opportunity to win back the Tiancongyun Sword in Li Yang's hand.
It would be best if he could win back all of Li Yang's artifacts. He watched the TV in the morning and was salivating over Li Yang's artifacts.
Li Yang pulled Zhou Wen, Li Can and Li Pei together, and they walked out together. Mitsui Yui was unwilling, but had no choice but to do so.
"Jason, where are you going? I remember you have a class tonight?"
The few people had just walked a few steps when a white man in his forties walked towards them. When he saw Li Pei, he screamed in surprise.
"Manager Hans, I have a friend who wants to go out. I have already asked for leave!"
Li Pei hurriedly replied, and Zhou Wen whispered in Li Yang's ear and explained that Jason was the English name Li Pei gave himself, and it was also the name he used to work in the casino.
"Asking for leave? Okay, I understand!"
The white man nodded, looked up and saw Taro Yamamoto not far behind him, was slightly startled, and hurried over.
"Mr. Yamamoto, do you have any orders?"
White people are very respectful to Mr. Yamamoto. Taro Yamamoto is not only the director of the casino, but also a famous expert in the casino. He is just the deputy manager of the lobby on the first floor. There is a big difference in level.
"Hans, who was that person just now?" Yamamoto Taro asked softly, thoughtfully.
This white man was the manager of the casino. He happened to recognize that Zhou Wen and Li Pei were just the lowest-level workers. Taro Yamamoto had no impression of them at all. At this time, he did not know that two of the people around Li Yang were from his casino.
staff.
And one of them is the person who helped Li Yang to rescue him just now.
"Mr. Yamamoto, that's..."
Hans lowered his head and slowly revealed Li Pei's identity. Hans was the person who managed the casino on the first floor. Hundreds of staff in the casino on the first floor were his subordinates, including Li Pei and Zhou Wen.
After mentioning that Zhou Wen was also a staff member of the casino, Yamamoto Taro's eyes clearly flashed with coldness.
"Mr. Yamamoto, an employee like you should be fired!"
This time it was Mitsui Yasushi who spoke, and this time he spoke in English with a loud voice. Li Yang, who was walking in front, suddenly stopped and looked back at Mitsui Yasushi.
"Mr. Yamamoto, Alvin and Jason usually work very hard. Alvin has already got off work. I believe Jason must have asked for leave!"
Hans was startled. He didn't understand why Director Yamamoto's friend said that, but he still made a point.
There are hundreds of employees in the casino on the first floor. Zhou Wen and Li Pei are the few who work the hardest, and they are also people he is very optimistic about. Otherwise, he would not come up to ask Li Pei immediately when he saw them.
Ai Wen is Zhou Wen's English name. The two of them followed the local customs and both had English names here.
"Mr. Mitsui, thank you for your advice!"
Taro Yamamoto chuckled and nodded, while Zhou Wen smiled bitterly. He probably couldn't keep this job.
In fact, when he took Li Yang away just now, he was already mentally prepared for this. Taro Yamamoto was a director. He didn't know what the conflict was between the director and Li Yang, but he could see that the director took Li Yang away.
Li Yang didn't have any good intentions when he brought him to the gambling table.
He could also see that Li Yang's current status seemed to be very special. But no matter what Li Yang's status was, he was his boss and his good friend. In this case, he would rather offend the director than want Li Yang to
Yang suffers nothing.
If you bet on it, you will suffer a big loss if you are not careful.
He dragged Li Yang away. Even if Taro Yamamoto didn't recognize him now, he might recognize him in the future, and it would probably be the same result by then.
"Boss, let's go!"
Zhou Wen pulled Li Yang again, and the result was what he expected, so this time even if he heard what Mitsui Yasu said later, he didn't care much.
"etc!"
Li Yang shook his head, turned around, and walked slowly back.
The biggest reason why he rejected Taro Yamamoto was that he met his former good brothers. At this moment, he just wanted to chat with them and talk about the situation after they were separated in the past few years.
However, this good mood was completely ruined now, especially when Mitsui Yasu said that he would fire Zhou Wen and the others.
Li Yang didn't know how much Zhou Wen and the others valued this job, but if it was just a job, Li Yang believed that he could help them find a better job with a higher salary than here.
If the two of them don't like China but like Toronto, Li Yang can also introduce them to the Lin Group.
Based on the relationship between Li Yang and Lin Lang, I believe that the two of them will work very comfortably in the Lin Group. For this reason, it doesn't matter if Li Yang owes Lin Lang another favor.
But Li Yang couldn't tolerate it. The two good brothers were kicked out because he was maliciously kicked out. Originally, he just wanted to have a good time with the two brothers to reminisce about the past, and didn't want to have anything to do with these Japanese people. But since he insisted on coming
If they come to die, Li Yang can only help them.
With special abilities and powerful cheating tools, as long as Li Yang is sensible and doesn't choose a reading that ignores him, he will definitely be invincible.
Li Yang walked up to Taro Yamamoto and said softly: "Tell me, how do you want to bet?"
"Boss!"
Zhou Wen suddenly ran back again, and Li Pei also followed. Li Pei didn't know what was going on, but he could see that Taro Yamamoto was not kind to Li Yang, so he looked at Li Yang worriedly.
"Jason, Alvin, what's going on?"
Hans was even more surprised. He walked carefully to the two subordinates and asked in a low voice. He just saw Li Pei and came to ask, but he didn't expect so many things to happen.
"Manager Hans, it's okay, but I'm sorry, I have to resign!"
Zhou Wen shook his head lightly, his eyes still a little unwilling when he spoke, but he didn't have any regrets.
It is true that Taro Yamamoto is a director, but it is a pity that he is not an open-minded director. Many people know this. If you offend him now, it will be impossible to work here in the future. It is better to resign voluntarily.
At least he could hold Li Yang back and prevent him from being fooled. Zhou Wen was the banker on the gambling table just now. He had already seen that Li Yang didn't understand gambling at all. If he gambled with Yamamoto Taro, there was no chance of winning.
"Brother Hans, I also resign!"
Li Pei grinned. The salary in the casino was indeed not low. It was a pity to resign, but the brotherhood was more important in their hearts, not to mention that Taro Yamamoto had the idea of firing them.
"Boss, you have seen it. Now that we have both resigned, it seems that you are doing well now. From now on, the fourth child and I will have to rely on you!"
Zhou Wen smiled and pulled Li Yang down again. His intention was very obvious, that he didn't want Li Yang to gamble with Taro Yamamoto.
Yamamoto Taro's face became extremely ugly. In front of Aoki Weiyang and others, he had lost a lot of face this time. Unfortunately, it was hard for him to do anything in public now.
"Mr. Li, why don't we just bet on stud!"
Without waiting for Li Yang to react, Yamamoto Taro hurriedly said again, Li Yang had agreed to the bet, and if he regretted it again, he would never think about such an opportunity again.
In doing so, he would definitely offend Mrs. Lin to a certain extent, but when he thought of the benefits he would gain from bringing Li Yang to the gambling table, he still insisted on doing so.
Li Yang has the Tian Cong Yun Sword in his hand. As long as Li Yang loses his mind, he has a high chance of obtaining this artifact. With this artifact, he can gain unimaginable reputation and wealth when he returns to China.
When the time comes, he will be able to return to his country to develop and become a real upper-class person, and he will no longer have to wander abroad.
No matter which country people come from, they all want to return home in glory. This is Taro Yamamoto’s greatest opportunity to return home in glory. He is a gambler himself, so he would naturally give it a try when he encounters such an opportunity.
"Okay, no problem!"
Li Yang smiled softly and nodded in agreement. Zhou Wen opened his mouth and finally shook his head, with only worry in his eyes.

Two in one, I had a party yesterday and I didn’t know why I got home so drunk that I didn’t update more last night, please forgive me!
