710. Bet Heavy (10/10)
"What about the time limit?"
"When will it arrive and when will it end."
"Deal!" The man in sunglasses and the little old man insisted on it.
Sea bass is a relatively common fish in upper waters, often found in groups in Newfoundland waters, they are greedy, can grow to more than a meter long, and are a popular fish in sea fishing.
This kind of fish is not difficult to catch, and it is the entry fish species for anglers to catch in the sea, so seeing that Qin Shiou actually wanted to bet with his opponent with this fish, the traditional fishermen led by Andrew were suddenly anxious.
"You're not serious, are you?" Donald Brown, who also had a good relationship with Qin Shiou, came up and persuaded him, "Our boat will encounter several river estuaries along the way, and sea bass is not a rare thing. ”
It is easy to catch small sea bass at the mouth of the river, and they often swim to the upper reaches of the water or even the freshwater area with the rising tide, and then swim back to the sea as the tide recedes to enjoy the abundant bait brought by the high and low tides, so it is easy to fish in the estuary.
However, due to overfishing, the sea bass population has plummeted in recent years, and it is no longer possible to catch sea bass at the beach, so it seems that the Sunglasses duo will have to fish for small sea bass if they want to win.
Qin Shiou shrugged, it doesn't matter, no matter what fish you have, don't even think about taking the bait if you have Lao Tzu here.
A fisherman who seemed to have a relationship with the sunglasses duo came up and said, "You're on the gambling side, it's not appropriate to be a dealer, so I'll do it." ”
Hubble stopped the man and said, "Hey, Serge, don't go too far, it's just a joke." Got it? Everyone is kidding. ”
Sergi looked at Qin Shiou mockingly and said, "Really, sir?" Just a joke? ”
Qin Shiou secretly said in his heart that there are really people in this world who are not afraid of death. Okay, do you dare to die and still dare to bury it? Didn't say it. I'm going to pit you.
He said to Hubble: "It's okay man, it's a little gamble, it's not a lot of money, so let this brother be the banker." Come on, what's the odds? I'm definitely betting on me to win. ”
Andrew pulled Qin Shiou and whispered: "This is a bit big to play, Sergi's bastard is a casino, he has Indian blood, and the biggest casino in St. John's is his family." ”
Because the whites used to persecute the Indians too harshly. Later, compensatory policies began to be developed, and the gambling industry in the United States and Canada was not illegal, but it was heavily taxed, with the exception of Indians.
Gambling was the favorite form of entertainment for Native Americans, and the U.S. and Canadian governments went online at this point, and their casinos only had to pay taxes like normal businesses, and the profits were very considerable.
Sergi looked at Qin Shiou with a smile, Qin Shiou shrugged his shoulders and said, "What are the odds." I'll pay 100,000 yuan. ”
"For the sake of Minister Matthew and Hubble's face, I don't bully you, the odds of betting on you to win are 4:1, and there is no upper limit on funds; The odds of a win on Charco and Buck are 1:1.5. The upper limit of funds is 50,000, who will play? Sergi said generously.
Fishery owners are not poor, even if they have less money to move. That's also a million 800,000 ready. Of course, they may owe millions of loans to banks. But no matter what, they are rich people.
Sergi's mobile phone had a gambling tool. He writes down the names and funds of the people who are participating in the game and signals that they can start.
There was no entertainment on board, almost everyone was involved in gambling, even Matthew King bought a thousand bucks.
Hubble looked at Qin Shiou deeply and smiled: "It seems that what the media said is good, you are very rich." ”
Qin Shiou shrugged his shoulders and said, "No, I'm just confident in myself. Man, what do you think sea bass is? It's not that easy to catch! ”
Hubble looked at him with interest, and it wasn't until Serge said he was going to stop betting that he went over to pick the market.
Sunglasses and the little old man glanced at Qin Shiou with a sneer, and the two of them made a throat-cutting motion at him, and one of them occupied one side of the deck and began to take the bait.
The two are veterans of sea fishing, and the sunglasses chose to use a spiral lure and a five-meter long standard fishing rod, the strength of the fishing line is ATM10, and the target is less than half a meter.
The spiral lure is a common lure used in river fishing for the rapids of rivers and has a plumb sinker to stabilize the bait in rough water.
The yacht does not stand still, but keeps moving forward, which makes fishing more difficult, but the situation is easier with the lure of the spiral blade. Isn't a yacht sailing in the ocean like a big river in disguise? One is the flow of water and the other is the movement of the boat, which means the same thing for the hook and the bait.
Fishermen are good fishers, and when they see sunglasses in this way, some people whistle and applaud, and some people give him an idea: "Buck, my fellow, with Toby bait, I bet you can catch sea bass in half an hour!" ”
"No, use a yellow-bellied Devonshire Minoan bait, I've fished for sea bass and it works great."
Sunglasses tossed the hook into the water, waited a second or two for the bait to sink, and slowly reeled in the line and began to wait for the sea bass to take the bait.
Qin Shiou looked at Sergi and asked, "Man, can you still change the bet now?" I suddenly remembered that I was a little too anxious just now......"
"You want to get your bet back? I'm sorry, this won't work......" Sergi looked at Qin Shiou amusedly.
Qin Shiou continued: "The bet is a bit small, if I can, I want to invest a little bigger, how about adding 400,000 yuan?" ”
Sergi choked on his words, and the others looked at Qin Shiou with stupid eyes, and Hubble had a smile on his face, not knowing what he was laughing at.
Originally, the bet couldn't be changed, listening to Qin Shiou still have to increase the bet, Sergi was a little moved, a total of 500,000 bets, this is not a small amount, especially if he wins, then he will have to lose 2 million!
But after calculating in his heart, Sergi immediately made a decision and said: "You can raise, are you sure you want to add another 400,000?" A total of 500,000? ”
"Sure."
"Damn, rich Orientals." Some fishermen immediately began to watch the excitement.
After placing the bet, Qin Shiou pulled a recliner and hid under the parasol to play with his mobile phone, while the Poseidon consciousness was put into the water and watched the situation in the water.
Buck and Charco have a hand in fishing, and they bought fishing grounds either to raise fish or to build beach houses and fish, so less than ten minutes after throwing out the bait, their fishing lines started jumping one after another.
The fishermen were in good spirits, and first Charcoo pulled his line, which turned out to be a big mackerel, which he shook his head, picked it and threw it in the freezer, and threw the bait down.
Buck then took his hook, which turned out to be a small blue shark.
Buck subconsciously wanted to take it off, but Matthew King coughed, and then he remembered that the Minister of Fisheries was by his side, and quickly threw the little blue shark back into the sea. Blue sharks are not a prohibited species, but under the Canadian Fisheries Act, shark juveniles are not allowed to be caught. (To be continued......)
