In the living room, Li Erdan crossed his legs and tasted the fragrant tea leisurely.
There was a sound of footsteps in his ears, and Li Erdan's eyes turned to the door. He saw Chang Mancang, who was dressed in rich clothes, walking in from the door. Behind Chang Mancang, there were Chang Xiaoqian and the housekeeper.
.
"Hello, Senior Chang. Why does Senior look so bad? Are you feeling unwell?"
Li Erdan asked curiously.
"Hmph! Why my father looks so bad is not because of you."
Chang Xiaoqian snorted dissatisfiedly.
"Because of me?
What's wrong with me?"
Li Erdan pointed to his nose and said innocently.
"My father has always cherished money as much as his life. You almost ransacked our house all of a sudden. Do you think my father can be better?"
Chang Xiaoqian said with wide eyes.
"Ahem!"
Li Erdan almost couldn't hold back his laughter, but in this situation, he really couldn't laugh, so he could only cover his mouth and cough dryly to cover it up.
Seeing Li Erdan's appearance, Chang Mancang was furious.
"Li Shaoxia, you are not trying to push yourself to the limit. You still want to go to the old man and search my place."
Chang Mancang said with a wary look.
"Senior, what are you saying? What kind of person am I?
My greatest advantage is that I am not greedy."
Li Erdan said seriously.
"You..." Hearing the words "not greedy", Chang Mancang suddenly felt a pain in his heart, pointed at Li Erdan, and was so angry that he couldn't speak.
"Senior, don't be angry, let's talk about something serious.
I, Li Erdan, am not the kind of person who doesn't know how to take advantage of others. I also know how to take advantage of others and be soft-spoken.
I, Li Erdan, have taken so many things from your Chang family, I definitely won’t take them for nothing.”
Li Erdan said with a serious face.
"Not for free?
Are you going to eat something in your stomach and then vomit it out?"
Chang Mancang frowned and asked with a wary look on his face.
"Spit it out?"
How is that possible? How can I, Li Erdan, vomit out what I, Li Erdan, have eaten?
Of course, Li Erdan only said this in his heart.
"Senior, I am now giving you an opportunity to make a fortune. If you grasp it well, you will not only make a huge fortune, but also get a few alchemists to work as coolies for your Chang family."
Li Erdan said with a mysterious face.
"What did you say?"
Chang Mancang suddenly lost his composure and collapsed from his chair, looking at Li Erdan with interest.
Chang Xiaoqian also had a curious look on her face.
"Haha! This is what happened..." In the following time, Li Erdan accidentally bumped into the matter of Xiao Langjun and William paying for idle people in Yaoshan Town, as well as the four major overseas forces.
Tell Chang Mancang about the handicap.
Who is Chang Mancang? He is definitely a shrewd businessman. The more he listens, the brighter his eyes become. There is already a look of ecstasy on his face.
"Li Shaoxia, what do you mean?"
"Haha! Senior, you are such a smart person, don't you understand what I mean?
Seniors, are you interested in playing a big game with juniors?"
Li Erdan said with a mysterious face.
"Li Shaoxia, the four major overseas forces dare to do this. I believe that they are absolutely sure that they can win the championship of this alchemy conference. How should we operate?
Li Shaoxia, are you absolutely sure that you will win the championship in this alchemy competition?"
Chang Mancang asked expectantly.
"Senior is indeed a smart man, he guessed the key point of the problem right away.
Senior is right, I am absolutely sure that I can win the championship in this alchemy competition."
Li Erdan said with confidence.
Chang Mancang and Chang Xiaoqian were all staring at Li Erdan who looked confident.
"how?
Don’t seniors believe that I have this strength?
Or does the senior lack the courage to place a bet on the junior?"
"Li Shaoxia has misunderstood. I believe that since Li Shaoxia dares to say this, then Li Shaoxia must be sure of it.
As for saying that I, Chang Mancang, don’t have the courage, that’s a joke. If I, Chang Mancang, didn’t have the courage and courage, would I have invested so much in your boy?”
Thinking of the treasures that Li Erdan had snatched away, Chang Mancang felt a twinge of pain again.
"I still don't understand that even if Li Shaoxia is sure to win the championship, our Chang family can only place a small bet on that handicap to win some jade.
But just now Li Shaoxia said that if this thing is done, he can get some coolie alchemists for our Chang family, what does this mean?"
Chang Xiaoqian asked.
"Daughter, you are asking a good question, it is also what my father wanted to ask.
Our Chang family has been doing business for generations and has strictly stipulated in our ancestral precepts that we never engage in gambling. If we can just win some spiritual stones, our Chang family is really not very interested."
Chang Mancang said.
"He deserves to be the richest man in the world. Senior is indeed very wealthy. Are you still not interested in this kind of profitable business?
This is a good opportunity to make a fortune."
Li Erdan said speechlessly for a while.
The thoughts of rich people cannot be guessed by poor people.
"Li Shaoxia, you should tell me how to operate it so that we can get some coolie alchemists for our Chang family."
Chang Mancang asked with interest.
"this?
I can only say it’s possible, but I’m not 100% sure, just because I’m afraid those overseas guys won’t be fooled.”
Li Erdan frowned and said.
"This is what I think. Since these four overseas forces dare to do this, they must have absolute confidence in their own people.
If you, senior, also open a handicap, will the four major overseas forces come here to place bets on the person they are optimistic about?
If they have the guts to bet on the senior handicap, then there is a high probability that we can lose everything to them."
Li Erdan analyzed.
"This..." Chang Mancang and Chang Xiaoqian were both smart people, and they immediately understood Li Erdan's plan.
Li Erdan's plan is actually very simple, that is to ask Chang Mancang to open a handicap and seduce the four major overseas forces to place bets.
If the four major overseas forces have absolute confidence in their own people, then they will definitely think that the Chang family's opening of a market is just like giving away money to the little red soldiers. For this kind of free money transaction, the other party will definitely pay no attention to it.
As for our side, in the handicap of the four major overseas forces in Shanghai, we bet heavily on Li Erdan's championship. Once Li Erdan wins the championship, the four major overseas forces will lose money on both ends, and they will lose even their pants.
, when there is no money to repay the debt, the Chang family can detain the alchemists from the four major forces and work as coolies for their own chamber of commerce to repay the debt.
"My plan depends on how much confidence the four major overseas forces have in their alchemists. Once they are overconfident, it will be a huge opportunity for us.
Senior, what do you think of our plan?
Do you dare to vote?"
Li Erdan asked.
Chang Mancang stood up, pacing back and forth uneasily, rubbing his hands back and forth.
"As far as I know, four fifth-grade alchemists from the four major overseas forces have come this time. If we can really capture these four fifth-grade alchemists, they will become the coolies of our Chang family."
Speaking of this, Chang Mancang's eyes shone with excitement.
