Chapter 165: HI, Luxor (II)
Link wants to exchange $100,000 in chips.
Martha Topson called a waiter to serve Link. She smiled and said to Jessica, "Miss Benis." ”
"Call me Jessica!"
"Okay. Jessica. You know, if you catch this guy, you're going to be the jealous of all the women in Las Vegas. Your lucky woman?"
"Really, I'm a lucky woman. ”
"It can't be true. As far as I know, Mr. Hans had stayed in hotels, including Luxor, for two months, but had never heard of him looking for those women. You know, there's also some news that we've shared between casinos. Such a rich man is simply a dragon and a phoenix claw in Las Vegas. He's worth holding onto. ”
"Yes, I know. And then what?"
"Then, you should stop him from going to the table. Before his bad luck came. ”
Link smiled and said, "Okay, Martha." That's what you said before. And it's not me who is betting this time. ”
Thompson looked skeptical: "Isn't it?"
"Of course not. Jessica smiled and took Link's arm and said like a bird. "I'm here to play this time. ”
"Okay. Have fun!" Martha Topson said helplessly. "I have to go to work. ”
Not long after she walked away, their chips were swapped.
"What are we going to play now?"
"Anything goes. ”
"Well, the minimum $1,000 in chips, I've only seen it in other people's hands. But aren't you supposed to tell me about your plans now?"
Link took her by the waist and walked forward and said, "I want to buy my beef to Luxor, but I have an appointment with their general manager." But he didn't seem to want to see me. I had to let them come to me. ”
"Really. That's damn good. Maybe we can win them by tens of millions. Jessica said with a smile.
"How could we get out sideways. You know that money is enough to take risks and do anything. Here?" he took Jessica to sit down at an empty blackjack table.
Jessica really gambled on herself, and Link was by her side, and he only watched Jessica bet, but he didn't make a sound. As a result, Jessica lost $4,000 in chips in just four games.
"Maybe you should give me some advice. Otherwise, your plan may not be able to proceed. Jessica whispered. "Or maybe you're going to lose $100,000 to them. ”
So Link began to help her play, whether she wanted to play cards or not, in fact, it was up to him. Jessica sits at the table and is just in charge of placing her bets.
Jesse looked at the four thousand wins, and won back what she had just lost. He began to place 10,000 at a time, and said with a smile: "They say that you are the god of gambling, and I am beginning to believe it a little." ”
And at this time, the monitoring center in Luxor has begun to strain.
"There's no trace of a thousand. They were still gambling after the card was drawn. There was no sign of card counting. Frank said to his boss with a frown.
His boss was a fifty-year-old man. He looked at it for a moment and said, "Yes, he never made a thousand." If he's counting cards, there's no way we're going to get him out. There is nothing we can do about it. He turned around and lowered his voice. "Two years ago it couldn't, and now it can't. ”
An employee in the monitoring room reminded at this time: "They started to code, and now it is 30,000 yuan a game." They have won more than $100,000. ”
Frank did the math: "That is, if they spend the whole day, they might win millions from the casino." ”
"Maybe more. Damn it. Contact Chris again. ”
"He'll have another hour to get back, and that time will cost the casino more than two million." One of them added again? Frank pointed to the screen. Now Jessica's bet figure has exceeded $50,000.
"Maybe I should contact Mr. Angel. "Mr. Angel here is the president of the hotel.
The other Angel is just in charge of the hotel housing department.
The security director made a phone call to tell him about Link's reappearance at the casino. And then it's OK. He hung up the phone and said to Frank, "Tell Martha and ask him to go see Mr. Angel." ”
Martha Topson has also been keeping an eye on Link and Jessica. When she got the order, she saw that Jessica's Link was already full of people watching the excitement. She saw the men clapping and cheering once. She whispered, "Damn it." That means Jessica has won another game. It is equivalent to another 50,000 losses for the casino.
She wanted Link to walk over to the table, squeeze into the crowd, and whisper to Link, "Mr. Hans, Mr. Angel wants to see you!"
Link smiled and said, "My pleasure!"
He leaned into Jessica's ear and said, "Export the money!"
Jessica smiled and nodded, "I'll keep the money for lunch." ”
Link follows Martha to a hallway, where Frank waits. Link followed him to his office on the top floor of the hotel. However, he saw that the door sign was the president's office: "Is Mr. Angel looking for me?" He knew very clearly that he was looking for Mr. Angel's son in this office.
Frank smiled and said, "Yes." It's Mr. Angel who wants to see you. As he spoke, he pushed them away. "Mr. Angel, Mr. Hans is here. ”
Link didn't wait for the people inside to speak, and walked straight into the office: "Hello Mr. Angel. It's been a long time since we've seen each other. ”
The owner of the office, a balding man in his sixties, looked up and said to Link, "It's been two years and four months." If I could, I would never even see you. ”
"You know, that can't be, can it?"
"I heard you're looking for Chris, but he's on his way back, so maybe you can tell me something. ”
Link laughed and said, "Of course it's the best." Actually, I just wanted to talk to Chris about sourcing my beef. ”
"That's it?"
"And the wine, of course. ”
Link's request wasn't too difficult. If it weren't for the fact that he was immediately in a sense Luxor's enemy, the Luxor Hotel would have been willing to agree to the demands of a rich man like Link.
And now Link threatens Luxor with his actions. Threaten them to give him this face. Unless they have the ability to make Link lose money, they will have to give Link this face.
Although being coerced into acceding to his request made old Angel feel as uncomfortable as eating a dead mouse, he knew that it was better for him to promise Link now: "You are a bastard, but I can grant your request." ”
Link smiled and said, "Thank you." But if Chris could give me an exact time to meet, I wouldn't do such a jerk thing. ”
He stretched out his hand and said, "I wish us a happy cooperation." ”
Angel ignored his outstretched hand and just stared into his eyes and said, "Listen Link, I hope I won't hear from you winning at my casino in the future." ”
"In fact, the news you heard this time is also fake. He stood up as he spoke. "I'll have my lawyer sign the contract with you. Thanks again!" He said and left the office.
Old Angel took a deep breath to suppress the anger in his heart. He was not young, and his personal doctor told him not to get angry easily, which would raise his blood pressure.
Not long after Link walked out, he received a message from the surveillance department: "Link Hans's girlfriend bets $100,000 every time and loses all the money. Including the 100,000 chips they exchanged. ”
Old Angel smiled a little at this time. Of course, it wasn't because Luxor won Link's money, but because he found out that Link wasn't a complete jerk yet. At least know how to converge.
When Link returns to the casino, Jessica is talking to Martha Topson. Seeing him come over with a smile, he shook a $1,000 chip in his hand and said, "Look, I still have lunch for today." ”
Link smiled and said, "Well done!" he said to Martha as he took Jessica into his arms. "Look, you don't have to worry about losing your job. And if you've lost your job because of it, maybe you might want to consider working for me. If you want, I can give you an annual salary of 500,000. ”
"Wow, that's a great salary!" said Martha, who didn't seem to be the slightest bit impressed, jokingly. "So what am I responsible for? Won't I be with you when Jessica isn't around?"
Link laughed and said, "Don't sow discord, Martha. Jessica won't believe you. He paused. "I need someone with management experience to help me manage my investments. I remember you were an MBA from the University of California, and I believe you have that ability. ”
Martha was stunned for a moment and asked, "Are you serious?"
"Four ranches, three companies, and I needed a dedicated team to manage them. ”
"So I only obey you, but everyone else obeys me?"
"You can think that the whole team is on my orders, but everyone else needs to be on your orders. Of course, if you can fix the problem before I notice it, everyone else will actually do your bidding. ”
"So I'll be your representative on those properties?"
"Also a special assistant!"
Martha's pink lips moved, and finally said, "If you can let me form a team, I will promise you!"
"Is this a condition?"
"Not a sufficient necessity. If you don't agree, I'll consider it too!" Martha said, looking at Link. "The position you've given is challenging, but I need more trust. ”
"Trust needs to be cultivated. ”
Martha's lips curled and she said, "If you really need my help, then trust me." I guess there was no error in my understanding. ”
Link thought for a moment, and glanced at Jessica, who was silent. He nodded and said, "I can give you the trust you want." Maybe we can find a time to talk. ”
"Friday night!"
“OK。 I'll make an appointment with you then. ”
Link left the casino with Jessica after saying that. In the car, Jessica asked, "Are you really going to hire Martha? ”
Link said as he drove, "But it will be more experienced than me." And I feel like she's a person you can trust. ”
"Because she advised you not to gamble?"
"Persuade me because I've won too much. He said. "But two years ago, a few nights in Luxor, I saw her persuade a few people who were about to lose their panties. I think she should also have a degree in psychology. You don't like her? You seemed to be talking and laughing just now. ”
"No, she's an interesting person. I just think she's too young. If you need to, you can hire a more experienced manager. In fact, she also felt that Link needed a management team. If nothing else, as long as Link's wine starts selling, Link can't take care of it.
Link smiled and said, "I still have a few months to get acquainted with her." And she could be the head of control at one of Luxor's main gambling halls at the age of twenty-four, or earlier, as a black man. She even stayed in that position for more than three years. ”
"It's true that my experience of working in a casino like her can handle everyone. ”
"That's what I need. "Link's business in the future was mostly about dealing with people. Martha Thompson, someone who is familiar with the world and is used to seeing all kinds of people, needs to help her.
