Only then did Lu Yan regain his composure and asked sternly.
Cao Mo took a sip from his cigar, puffed out the smoke slowly, then looked at Lu Yan and asked, "Ah, do you blame me for taking a cigar from the table for nothing, or do you mean that I can't sit down here?"
The corners of Lu Yan's eyes twitched twice, and when he was about to continue questioning Cao Mo about the purpose of bringing so many people here, he saw that Cao Mo had turned his face and ignored him, as if he didn't care about his questioning at all.
Lu Yan felt his temples on both sides of his head throb.
Cao Mo took the playing cards from the dumbfounded dealer's hand, clumsily cut the cards and played with them. Within a few moments, he spilled a deck of playing cards in his hand, but he also carelessly discarded the remaining cards in his hand.
Throwing it away, he picked up a red chip on the table and took a look at it. Looking at Han Shaorong, Lu Jianchao said:
"Mr. Han, Mr. Lu is a person who shakes the earth with his stamp of his feet no matter where he is. How can you play this kind of game of cards? Don't you think it's boring? Lu Yan is a loser. Before I
I asked him to play a game worth 500,000 yuan, but he didn't bother to accompany me, which made me not interested in Texas Hold'em poker for a long time. Today, Mr. Han and Mr. Lu are here, and I think my wish should come true...
…”
Cao Mo only looked at Han Shaorong while Lu Jianchao spoke, as if everyone else present was not worth mentioning in his eyes. Lu Yan was so angry that his hands and feet were shaking, but Ade, Oulu and other bodyguards lined up behind Cao Mo.
Watching everyone's every move with eager eyes.
Although the eight policemen from the Longta Police Station stood at the gate and did not follow him, Lu Yan knew in his heart that he really wanted to instruct the casino's bodyguards to do something detrimental to Cao Mo. These eight policemen and those sitting outside the main building
There are who knows how many police officers there are in eight police cars, which is definitely enough for them to eat a pot.
Abacha, Yang Deshan, Xie Sipeng and other people did not appear. Lu Yanming knew that Cao Mo came to stir up trouble alone, so he could only endure it. He could not let Cao Mo catch the slightest clue and give him the opportunity to make a fuss out of a molehill.
It's just the hatred in his heart. This feeling of swallowing it down is really uncomfortable.
Cao Li was frightened by such a big movement at first. Then she recovered a little and saw Cao Mo walking in. People like Han Shaorong and Lu Jianchao were pretending to be idiots and wanted to play a game of cards worth 500,000 yuan with them.
Suddenly he felt a little crazy and shouted: "Cao Mo, are you crazy?"
To be honest, Cao Li has seen how her parents have treated the Cao Mo family over the years.
Therefore, her family encountered great difficulties and crises years ago. Cao Mo's family stood by and did not want to ask Chen Rong to come forward and say a word for help. Cao Li also understood that she did not have any resentment in her heart, but was worried about what happened to her parents in the past.
Feeling embarrassed, he couldn't help but persuade Cao Mo not to act ungratefully in front of a person like Han Shaorong.
Cao Mo glanced at Cao Li and ignored her. Instead, he gently tapped the gambling table with his chips, quietly waiting for Han Shaorong and Lu Jianchao's reactions.
Cao Li meant well when she said it, but when she saw that Cao Mo didn't appreciate it at all, she was very angry.
Zhang Jin was punished by Cao Mo and never had the chance to return to the festival. At this time, he couldn't help but sneered: "Some people make a lot of money in Africa, but they don't know how much they have. How much does he make in a year?"
How many minutes can he play with half a million dollars on the Texas hold'em poker table?"
"..." Many gamblers gathered around to watch the excitement in the hall. After hearing what Zhang Jin said, they looked at him as if he were a fool and whispered, "Who is this young man? He has the right to look down on Cao Mo. He
What's the origin?"
"I don't know. Just look at him running around behind Lu Yan all day long. I guess he's not more awesome than Lu Yan."
"You're not even better than Lu Yan, why should he say such a thing? Doesn't he know that Lu Yan is completely afraid to show off in front of Cao Mo? Now it depends on whether Lu Jianchao and Han Shaorong will accompany Cao Mo in this game. It's too late today."
Damn it, I just lost more than 10,000, and I regret that I shouldn’t have come here to play today because I was so stupid. I didn’t expect that there would be such a good show to watch. Damn, I can brag about this scene today for years to come.
, your phone doesn’t have a camera function, take a photo quickly..."
Cao Fangming hesitated whether to show off in front of Han Shaorong and Lu Jianchao, and to teach Cao Mo a few words as an elder, but he heard the gamblers around him talking about it, and there were even a few impressive gamblers standing aside, smiling.
Cao Mo nodded and said hello, but he was a little confused.
How is this going?
Cao Mo didn't look at the reactions of his uncles Cao Fangming and Cao Li at all, but there were several gamblers who were investors in the park and traders who had done a lot of business. They smiled and said hello: "Sit down and play a few games together."
?”
"Just spare us, how can we be qualified to accompany you to play such a big game with Mr. Han and Mr. Lu? Today we will be responsible for watching the excitement, broadening our horizons, and cheering for you." The spectators said with a smile.
Of course, Han Shaorong would not be intimidated by Cao Mo's momentum. He picked up a chip and threw it into the lottery area to show his willingness to challenge. He did not look at Cao Mo directly, but turned to Lu Jianchao and said with a smile: "Lu Yan really doesn't
He shouldn't even dare to play a game worth half a million dollars, so he becomes so arrogant. Since he has this interest, how about we play him twice?"
"Xintaihua dares to open a casino on the south bank of Lake Cornero, so there is no reason to refuse customers. How many chips are you going to cash in?" Lu Jianchao asked, staring at Cao Mo with a gloomy face.
"It's good if Xintaihua doesn't refuse customers, why do you need to exchange chips like that?" Cao Mo snapped his fingers.
At this time, two bodyguards each carried two black suitcases and walked into the hall. They walked to Cao Mo's side, opened the four black suitcases, and poured four million US dollars in cash into the large hall.
on the gambling table.
Cao Fangming, Cao Li, and Zhang Jin all looked at the scene in front of them in stunned silence.
Without counting in detail, they could roughly guess that one suitcase should be worth a full million US dollars in cash, and four suitcases should be four million US dollars.
The 500,000 yuan per game that Cao Mo just mentioned does not refer to RMB, but to US dollars?
Although Cao Li just sat down at the table today and learned to play Texas Hold'em poker, she also knows how crazy half a million dollars is.
And what is the concept of four million U.S. dollars? Her father still claimed to be a successful person in Xinhai, but he was almost forced to death by four million U.S. dollars a year ago, okay?
Cao Mo went to the gambling table with $4 million in cash without using any chips on the table. Does the small blind have to directly use $10,000 as the bottom bet?
Cao Li felt that the world was a little crazy.
She knew that with Han Shaorong and Lu Jianchao
With his net worth, he would not care about such a gamble, but how old was Cao Mo, and where did he get so much cash?
Looking at the onlookers on the left and right, who all looked like they were taking it for granted, Cao Li couldn't help but wonder, when grandma said he was doing well in Africa, did she mean that he was a professional gambler in Africa?
Zhang Jin's face looked ugly.
Cao Fangming thought that he just wanted to teach Cao Mo a lesson on behalf of Han Shaorong and Lu Jianchao. At this time, he could only swallow hard, shut up and sit aside without any desire to say anything anymore:
In Xinhai, I heard that the boy from my boss’s family was doing well in Africa. He thought he could earn hundreds of thousands or millions a year at most. This could indeed be said to be doing well. He suddenly realized that the so-called
The statement of "doing well" seems to be completely wrong.
It is not an exaggeration to say that in Africa, with an annual income of over 100,000 or 200,000 yuan, you can hire full-time bodyguards and drivers. Young people can make enough money to hire more bodyguards to show their prestige.
However, three to four million US dollars in cash were piled on the gambling table like a mountain. This really frightened Cao Fangming. How much money had he saved in his life?
"I only carry so much cash. It's difficult to withdraw it from the bank at short notice. But my check book can issue a total of 100 million U.S. dollars from the United Bank of Oman. I should be able to play with you all night," Cao Mo added
He took out a checkbook from his arms, threw it on the table and said, "If you are worried that I will play a malicious overdraft, you can contact the West African CEO of United Bank of Oman to confirm."
When Cao Mo said this, Cao Fangming almost bit his own tongue: One hundred million dollars?! Isn't it a game of five hundred thousand dollars?
"For a small character like Lu Yan, if you play a game worth half a million dollars with him, you think highly of him, but he doesn't know how to praise him. But if you play a game worth $500,000 with Mr. Han and Mr. Lu, he looks down on you too much.
"Cao Mo said calmly, "Let's not play too big today, let's limit it to 100 million US dollars, lose it all and leave..."
Han Shaorong and Lu Jianchao's expressions changed.
Even with Han Shaorong's net worth, he might be able to use 100 million US dollars to do whatever he wanted without hurting his muscles and bones, but he couldn't accompany Cao Mo to go crazy at the gambling table.
Han Shaorong may be a much-anticipated legend in Xinhai, but in the eyes of the Chinese businessmen in West Africa, especially the gamblers who like to hang out in casinos and enjoy excitement, Cao Mo is the legend.
After the destruction of the Jidamu family, Cao Mo no longer tried every means to hide his interests in companies such as Ibogu Mining and Cornero Cement. At this time, he had straightened out the equity relationships of various major entities.
Even though these will not be disclosed to the public, the Chinese business circle of Dracula Mo is so small that by gathering bits and pieces of information together, everyone can almost piece together the truth.
The hundreds of Chinese businessmen currently working in Akwa are mainly gold prospectors; the news of Qian Wenhan and Xinhai Gold's huge investment in the Wusang River project has long been spread among the gold prospectors.
This incident has inspired almost twice as many people from other places to flock to Akwa's gold mining industry since this year.
There are various rumors among the Chinese businessmen in Dracula Mo about how much wealth Cao Mo had in just three or four years, but Cao Mo has never responded directly.
At this time, when they saw Cao Mo inviting Han Shaorong and Lu Jianchao to play such a big game, there were all people who liked gambling, and their eyes couldn't help but heat up again; when they saw Han Shaorong and Lu Jianchao, they actually wanted to retreat, and some of them were not afraid of offending them.
All the people couldn't help but booed.
Besides, after Cao Mo walked in, many people knew what was going on. They all gathered around happily to watch Cao Mo destroy the place, but they didn't expect that the destruction was even more enthusiastic than they imagined.
"Cao Mo, what do you mean? You came here specifically to destroy our Taihua place today!"
Lu Jianchao stared at Cao Mo with a stern look. Of course, he could not be inspired to play such a big gamble.
The casino has casino rules. It is impossible to respond to anyone who brings a huge check to destroy the place. They can just drive them out. The provoking method has no effect on them. But today, Cao Mo came to destroy the place. Almost everyone present
The gamblers all knew the whole story. Lu Jianchao didn't want to weaken his momentum or let Cao Mo win people's hearts away, so he immediately retorted,
"We proposed the construction plan of the new coastal city because of the strong voice from all over the city of Draculamo. If you are unhappy, you can go ahead and build your new lakeside industrial city on your own. We all follow the rules.
Don't be too aggressive in your actions. In Kanem, you haven't reached the point of being unscrupulous."
"More than a year ago, so many of you in Taihua were besieged by gangs. Who came to rescue you regardless of past grievances? You turned around and forgot about this matter. I won't bother you anymore, but you retaliated with grudges and messed up my affairs.
, this is already the second time, I will throw this money into your face today, and no one here today will say anything wrong about me!"
Cao Mo picked up a stack of US dollars and turned them over in his hand. Finally, he threw the stack of US dollars back on the table without actually hitting Lu Jianchao in the face. He looked at the cigar in his hand and said slowly,
"However, I can't help but wonder if you don't really want to do anything in Cornero Marina this time, but in fact you just don't want to see me accomplish this in Canem, and you are just here to cause trouble.
If I can't stand my anger, I might really be fooled by you. Then you can tell everyone that I ruined your plan to build a new coastal city, and let Kanem look down on me and look down on me.
As a spoiler. Well, I came here to tell you that you won. I decided to endure this breath. I am not here to mess up the situation today. The US$100 million was originally the start-up capital I prepared for Huwan Industrial New City. At this time
I brought it here for you to see. Since our plan has been ruined by you, if you dare to play, it doesn’t matter if you lose the money. And before I came here, I spoke to the members of the Lonta Municipal Committee, and I
After talking to the major shareholders of Conero Energy, we have only two requirements: First, for the 150,000 acres of construction land on the south side of Conero Lake and the 26,000 acres of water area on the south side of Conero Lake, you should pay 4 per mu.
You don’t think it’s too much to compensate Lonta City Hall with a price of one hundred dollars, right? If you think it’s too much, Lonta can pay double the price to draw north from Draculamore City.
Transfer the land for construction. Secondly, the power grid construction rights in Binhai New Area must be ensured to be owned by Conero Energy. In order to meet the construction needs of Binhai New Area, Conero Energy must invest a lot of money to upgrade the scale of power generation, transmission and distribution and
Grid facilities require you to pay a deposit of US$50 million. Ultimately, we must prevent you from just
A false shot will cause huge losses to Cornero Energy's investment..."
"..." Lu Jianchao and Han Shaorong looked at each other. They didn't expect that Cao Mo would openly put these conditions in front of so many people.
"Whether you are really sincere in building the new city of Cornero, or are you just here to be a troublemaker? It depends on your attitude now," Cao Mo said.
Is there anything excessive about Nero Energy's two conditions? Nsange can be asked to contact Mr. Oppenheimer. It's a long night and I have no intention of sleeping. Even now, Mr. Oppenheimer and the chairman of the Draculamo Municipal Committee and Dracula
The chairman of Lamo Port Group can come over and finalize the matter together; if there is any rudeness, I will apologize to them afterwards."
Naturally, Nsange hopes that the construction of Cornero Marina New City can actually start.
In addition, he and his family hold 7% of the shares of Cornero Energy after the reorganization. Therefore, the conditions proposed by Cao Mo on behalf of Cornero Energy are not excessive at all in his opinion, quite reasonable, and quite necessary.
Think about it, after Cornero Energy receives a deposit of US$50 million, its valuation will reach a higher level in two years. The wealth of the Oppenheimer family will be even richer.
In addition, how brave do you have to be to take away more than 100 square kilometers of high-quality construction land from Longta without any compensation?
Now that Lonta's arm can't twist his thigh, he no longer fights with Dracula, and only asks for corresponding compensation. Can we say that they are going too far?
"..." Lu Jianchao was restrained by Cao Mo and was speechless.
Cao Mo wanted to squeeze out their precious cash flow from the beginning, so of course he would not agree easily.
What's more, their contribution at this time is only to compensate the Lonta City Hall and serve as a deposit. If they really want to requisition the land from the tribal chief who owns the land, they will have to pay an additional expense.
However, he couldn't say that Cao Mo's request was excessive. Close to Draculamo City, the most prosperous city in West Africa, with more than 100,000 acres of construction land and more than 20,000 acres of water area, he could get it for just over 100 million US dollars.
Once you get it, it can be said to be quite cheap no matter what.
If he accuses Cao Mo of making things difficult, it will only prove that they have no sincerity in building the new coastal city of Cornero.
"As a human being, it's not a good thing to be so aggressive." Han Shaorong said slowly.
"Whether you say you are aggressive or you say I don't know what is good or bad, I am just a bachelor and can't see the sand in my eyes. You are really sincere in building the new city of Cornero. For the sake of the overall development of Canem, I can bear this tone and not follow you."
Why are you arguing, but you are here just to be a troublemaker this time, just to make things difficult for me. Don’t blame me for not showing any mercy to you in the future!” Cao Mo said with a stern look, “I don’t know what I am doing.
Being aggressive, does it mean that he has to be weak enough to be bullied by you, in order to be considered a compliment?"
Cao Mo no longer cared about Han Shaorong, Lu Jianchao's reaction, and said to Ensange: "Ensange, please call your father. If our two demands cannot be met, I don't think the Oppenheimer family is really necessary.
The Oppenheimer family has not suffered any losses from cooperating with me in the past few years, right?"
Seeing Cao Mo blatantly instigating their relationship with the Oppenheimer family without any scruples, Lu Jianchao was so angry that veins were jumping on his forehead.
Cao Li and her father sat there looking at each other, completely unaware of what was going on.
Han Shaorong proposed the construction plan of the new coastal city of Cornero with the Lu family, which actually caused trouble for Cao Mo. Cao Mo was so angry that he came over to destroy the place today?
Cao Mo is developing well in Africa, but how "good" is it?
He came over and threatened people like Han Shaorong and Lu Jianchao with a bet of 100 million US dollars, and then asked Lu Jianchao and Han Shaorong to give them more than 100 million US dollars in compensation and deposit, or else they would fight against Han Shaorong and Lu Jiancheng. What's going on?
"Not bad"?
Nsangge also immediately took out his cell phone and called his father, Nitz Oppenheimer, and told him about tonight's situation. After a while, he handed the cell phone to Cao Mo.
After Cao Mo talked to Nitz Oppenheimer on the phone, he handed the phone back to Ensange, and then slowly said to Han Shaorong and Lu Jianchao: "Since Mr. Oppenheimer said it, then I will give him face and give him
You have one day to think about it and we will have the relevant agreements ready by this time tomorrow, and we are waiting for you at Lakeside Villas."
Cao Mo put out his cigar directly on the gambling table, then stood up and walked out of the hall, leaving four bodyguards to collect the cash on the table.
Han Shuyun, who didn't know where to go to play just now, jumped over and almost bumped into Cao Mo. She stared at Cao Mo with her beautiful eyes wide open, even though she had not thought of contacting Cao Mo when she came to Africa with her this time.
But when Leng Buding bumped into him, he couldn't help but ask: "Why did you come here to play today and leave so early?"
"I came here to bet with your dad. I didn't expect that your dad would be scared out of his wits by me, not to mention a few useless chicks from the Lu family. Since no one dared to gamble with me, I naturally had no choice but to leave.
That's it. Do you want to stay with me for two days?" Cao Mo asked as he stood at the door.
"Oh, you don't have to pay taxes to brag. Who wants to live with you?" Han Shuyun rolled her eyes at Cao Mo, quickly ran to her father Han Shaorong, hugged Han Shaorong's arm coquettishly and said, "Cao Mo has such a face.
, it’s getting more and more difficult to clean up how big the game he wants to play, I’ll play with him!”
"Don't be ridiculous!" No matter how good-mannered Han Shaorong was, being teased and ridiculed by Cao Mo in front of so many people made him feel as angry as the time when Cao Mo spat on his face, and he didn't do anything good to his daughter Shuyun.
tone.
"..." Han Shuyun snorted and threw Han Shaorong's arm aside.
Cao Mo hadn't left yet. He looked over with a smile and asked, "Your father is in a bad mood. Are you going to live with me?"
"Go away, who cares about you?" Han Shuyun naturally didn't have a good look on Cao Mo.
Cao Mo spread his hands and walked out into the deep night outside the hall.
After many bodyguards left with Cao Mo, the police officer leading the team signaled the eight police officers to leave. Before leaving, he did not forget to teach Yan Ming a few words: "There have been several reports of beatings of tourists here in the Southern District. I will tell you all."
Regarding the next time we receive such an alarm, don’t blame us for strictly following the procedures?”
How can the casino not use some means to deal with those bad gamblers who are cheating and cheating in the casino? However, people under the roof have to bow their heads. In the end, whether they should swallow their anger or not depends on whether the Taihua Industrial Park will stay or not.
