After hearing a few blunt Mandarin words, Lin Xi went to the most popular gambling table and saw three brown-haired and blue-eyed Austrians playing Landlords with great interest.
What surprised him was that the most popular game in this casino was not Texas Hold'em or Blackjack, but the Landlord, a traditional entertainment card game from China.
It is said that no one played Landlords in Austrian casinos a few years ago. The game of Landlords was introduced from Chinese tourists in recent years. Then, this game quickly became popular.
And when playing, you have to shout in Chinese to create an atmosphere.
Lin Xi stood in the crowd of onlookers and scratched his head. He did not expect foreign friends to be so enthusiastic about traditional Chinese chess and cards.
This can also be regarded as cultural export.
Just watching the three brown-haired and blue-eyed Austrians yelling and fighting the landlords, the scene seemed a bit funny.
"Master Nicholas, your champagne." The waiter in a black suit came over with a bottle of champagne and poured a glass of wine for the young man who won the most at the gambling table.
Lin Xi noticed that this Nicholas seemed to be an enthusiastic fan of Landlords. He was quite skilled in the game and had already accumulated a large pile of chips in front of him.
A rough calculation would cost at least hundreds of thousands of euros.
Nicholas took a sip of champagne, with a look of enjoyment on his chiseled face, and tipped the waiter with a chip worth 100 euros.
Comfortable.
After one round, the two Austrians at the same table with Nicholas lost all their chips and left the table with frustrated faces.
"There is no one who can fight."
Nicholas shook his head in disappointment. He had been winning here for several days without encountering a master of Landlord.
At this time, Nicholas suddenly looked up and saw an oriental face appearing in the crowd. His eyes lit up and he stood up and walked towards Lin Xi.
"Are you Chinese?"
Nicholas spoke authentic German, but Lin Xi couldn't understand him.
"What is he talking about, you translate it." Sylvie was born in Europe and received an aristocratic education from an early age, so she is no stranger to German.
So Sylvie acted as Lin Xi's temporary translator, "He asked you if you are Chinese."
"Choke to death."
Lin Xi nodded and showed his identity.
Nicholas became excited when he heard this, "Friends from China. I am Nicholas, from Weibo. Can you play Landlords?"
Sylvie translated this sentence, and Lin Xi immediately said, "Tell him that I am the leader of the Happy Landlords High-end Arena, the man who once won 5 million from 200 Happy Beans."
Sylvie was stunned and said with a grimace, "I can't translate these words."
She could only tell Nicholas that Lin Xi was a master of Landlords.
"Great, friends from China, let's play a few games." Nicholas' eyes were shining, and he couldn't wait to compete with the masters from China.
Three people were needed to play Landlord, so Sylvie was also pulled over to make up the number.
"Sorry sir, we need a minimum of 100 euros in chips." The croupier from the casino came over and said apologetically.
Nicholas proudly took two chips and said, "Their chips are mine."
"Thanks, Zhao Si."
Lin Xi and Sylvie only had 20 euros, so they stopped being polite to Zhao Si and started fighting landlords directly.
Nicholas didn't understand what Zhao Si meant and smiled stupidly.
The card game begins.
"Call the landlord!" Nicholas just got the card and called the landlord before he even looked at it.
Lin Xi smiled and did not compete with him for the landowner, and Sylvie was not very good at playing cards. In the first game, Nicholas was made the landowner, and the two of them became farmers.
Sylvie's card skills were not good, but somehow she was very lucky. As soon as she came up, she picked up a hand of Tianhu cards. She blindly played them with her eyes closed, and the cards in her hand were quickly gone.
"Hey, I won?"
After playing the last card in her hand, Sylvie came back to her senses.
"I didn't expect that this lady is also a master of Landlords." Nicholas looked excited, he met his opponent today.
The game continues.
After a few rounds, Lin Xi discovered that Nicholas especially liked to grab the landlord no matter what the cards in his hand were, and would always call the landlord in every round.
Then, it was the mixed doubles session between Lin Xi and Sylvie.
Although Nicholas's poker skills are very proficient, in front of Linxi, a high-end Happy Landlord venue, his level is still not enough.
After a few games of poker, the two of them had a thick stack of chips in front of them.
The strange thing is that Sylvie's luck tonight was so good that she was almost unreasonable.
Nicholas lost a lot of money, but he didn't seem to care at all and had a great time.
Later, Sylvie found out that the Fourth Young Master Zhao was the heir to a conglomerate family in Austria. The family had so much money that they would never be able to spend it all in a lifetime.
The few chips on the table were just drizzle to him.
"One to three!"
"bomb!"
Sylvie's mind got hot and she decisively pulled out a pair of bombs and shot them out.
Lin Xi: “???”
Are you poisonous? We are all farmers. Why are you blowing me up?
"It's over." Sylvie stuck out her tongue in embarrassment.
Thanks to the manipulation of his pig teammates, he was finally won by the landlord Nicholas.
After winning the game, Nicholas was as happy as a 200-pound child.
"Master Nicholas, do you want to continue?" Half an hour later, the croupier in the casino asked Nicholas, who had lost all his chips.
"Continue." Nicholas was in high spirits and made a call. Not long after, a cold-looking man in a suit walked into the casino carrying a suitcase.
Opening the suitcase, there were neatly packed bundles of brand new euros.
"It seems that this Nicholas is ready to fight with us." Sylvie raised her little feet and shook a glass of wine with a mellow aroma in her hand.
After losing all night, Nicholas seemed to have enlightened himself and no longer robbed the landlord every time.
Next, it was Lin Xi's turn to be the landlord, and he lost several games in one go.
"Can you do it? Don't spend all the money you finally won." The chips on the table in front of Sylvie piled up into a small mountain.
"Back then, Chen Daozai could win 37 million with 20 yuan, and I, Lin Xiaoxi, could win 5 million with 10 euros. It was not a problem."
Lin Xi was full of confidence. It was Nicholas who had snatched the landowner this time. Judging from his expression, the cards in his hand should be very good.
Nicholas's card skills are not bad, but unfortunately his opponents are Lin Xi, a veteran player, and Sylvie, a Tian Hu dog.
After a few rounds, Lin Xi only had one card left on the board.
Next, it’s the bomb show of Tenhu Dog Sylvie.
"Pour Auntie a cappuccino."
Lin Xi ordered a cappuccino for Sylvie, please start your performance.
Sylvie lived up to expectations and launched a series of bombs that directly blew Zhao Si into the sky.
In the end, Lin Xi won a total of 500,000 euros in chips from Nicholas, which converted into soft sister coins was close to 4 million.
Got money!
No need to sleep on the street tonight.
"Sir, do you want cash or transfer?" the casino staff came over and asked politely.
This casino's business is quite prosperous, with a daily turnover of over 100 million, so naturally it will not destroy its own sign for a mere few hundred thousand euros.
At this time, he didn't have a bank card on him, so he had to ask the staff to change the chips into cash.
Carrying a large bag of cash, Lin Xi felt a little unsteady when walking.
Walking out of the casino gate, a beautiful figure flashed before Lin Xi's eyes.
Sylvie was seen wearing a noble evening dress, walking towards him like a princess of a European royal family. She was holding a heavy black leather suitcase in her hand.
Lin Xi was stunned for a moment. This black suitcase seemed to belong to Zhao Si.
Did Sylvie win all the money from Zhao Si?
Lin Xi didn't pay much attention to Sylvie during the Landlord Battle just now. He only knew that she was lucky enough to win a lot tonight. He didn't expect that she would win so much money.
"How much money is there?"
Lin Xi asked curiously.
"I haven't counted it yet. Anyway, this money is enough for us to ride all the way to England." As she said that, Sylvie opened the black suitcase. She saw bundles of brand-new euro banknotes stacked neatly together, which looked very special.
Shocking.
The money in this suitcase is at least more than two million euros.
Not to mention taking a bus from here to England, it is enough to travel around the world.
In just a short time, he had won more than two million euros. Lin Xi even doubted whether Sylvie was having an affair with the God of Luck.
Sylvie didn't understand that wealth should not be revealed, so she opened the black suitcase carelessly and threw a bundle of euro bills to Lin Xi.
"I'm so sleepy, hurry up and find a hotel to sleep in. I want to stay in a five-star hotel and a presidential suite." Sylvie stretched out her body charmingly and said lazily.
Hearing this, the gamblers next to him had expressions of envy on their faces, as if they were saying, "My little brother, you are so lucky."
It seemed that they regarded Lin Xi as the pretty boy next to Sylvie.
At this time, Nicholas, who had lost money in front of Lin Xi and Sylvie, came over with two men in suits with serious faces.
"Zhao Si?"
Could it be that Zhao Si couldn't afford to lose and wanted to cause trouble for them?
Nicholas came over and said in blunt Mandarin, "Nihao, my friend from China."
"What's the matter with you, Zhao Si?"
"What does Zhao Si mean?" Nicholas was stunned for a moment and asked strangely.
"Well, that's a friendly term for you."
"So that's it." Nicholas smiled like a silly son of a landlord, took out a business card from his clothes and handed it over, "I had a lot of fun tonight. I want to make friends with you two and fight landlords together in the future.
"
Lin Xi took the business card and took a look at it. Zhao Si was really stupid and had a lot of money.
"We're leaving for England tomorrow, so we shouldn't have a chance."
"That's a shame."
Nicholas sighed with regret, then suddenly thought of something, and his smile suddenly brightened, "By the way, I happen to be taking a private jet to England for a business trip these days. Why don't you all take my private jet and go together?
