I Have 10 Trillion Dollars only Usable For Simping Chapter 2114 - 1359: King of Halls? Gambling King!

"Take a look."

"At what?"

"The information on Moon City."

That brief exchange wrapped it up neatly.

Fang Qing felt a slight jolt of surprise as she glanced toward Jiang Chen.

Boss Jiang seemed utterly unperturbed, easing himself onto the sofa with casual grace.

"Sit."

Fang Qing composed herself once more, took a seat, and accepted the documents, "So fast?"

Boss Jiang offered a light, indifferent grin while reaching for his water glass.

Fang Qing lowered her gaze and began leafing through the pages.

"Zhong Xiaoye?"

"You know him?"

"Yeah, I’ve heard of him. Nicknamed Nine-headed Bird, he’s the investor in many movies. A female celebrity willingly became his lover and had two sons for him, one son for a hundred million."

"You actually pay attention to gossip news, huh."

Jiang Chen reacted as though he'd uncovered some astonishing secret.

Fang Qing flipped to the cover image, "He’s the boss behind Moon City?"

"Yeah."

Jiang Chen had just devoted thirty minutes to scanning the full report, and it had left even him deeply impressed.

It made sense how he'd swiftly stepped into his imprisoned brother Yu Guangrong's shoes and earned the He Family's support. This Nine-headed Bird truly possessed exceptional abilities.

The details in Bai Haoran's dossier went far deeper than any public media coverage. Similar to countless influential personalities, the up-and-coming force in Haojiang who piqued Boss Jiang's interest stemmed from a tough early life. He dropped out of school early and started working as a croupier in a casino.

A croupier essentially rounds up patrons for the casino. Eventually, his sharp wits caught Yu Guangrong's eye, leading him to join as a subordinate, landing what folks in Haojiang back then viewed as the perfect gig—Stacking code.

Stacking code goes beyond merely linking casinos with bettors. The core earnings come from advancing loans to players short on funds to keep wagering, pocketing a 20% slice. Put simply, a 10,000 loan nets the borrower just 8,000, dubbed "head-chopping interest" in the lingo. Yet Zhong Xiaoye bucked the trend; he skipped that cut upfront. Borrowers received the full 10,000, though he'd claim 20% on their wagers instead.

The two tactics differ little at their core, yet they deliver a world of difference in user feel, particularly for frantic gamblers. Getting the complete 10,000 over 8,000 hits hard in those moments, explaining why Zhong Xiaoye rose above the pack under Yu Guangrong. Through his clever adaptability, he built a huge web of contacts, and his style actually matched the vibe Boss Jiang established upon entering Haojiang.

Of course.

At that time, Yu Guangrong still held sway, and Boss Jiang hadn't caught wind of Zhong Xiaoye's name yet. One could only say that brilliant minds tend to align.

Fang Qing pored over it with keen focus too, though her expertise let her process it quicker than Boss Jiang, absorbing three lines per sweep.

"Five hundred billion annual turnover? Is this data accurate?"

"Maybe not so precise, but it shouldn’t be off by much."

Jiang Chen had been equally stunned upon spotting it; considering Haojiang's overall yearly earnings, turnover might not match profit directly, but the figure remained jaw-dropping.

What exactly does five hundred billion signify?

Consider this comparison.

It surpasses the yearly total from Shen Zhou’s lottery.

Regardless of this Nine-headed Bird's smarts, he couldn't escape his lowly roots. Operating a casino in Haojiang demands a gambling license, which eluded him entirely. Much like his sibling, teaming up with venues to lease VIP areas couldn't yield such massive figures. Barred from launching his own spot in Haojiang, he blazed a fresh trail by jumping on digital trends ahead of the curve, securing online gambling permits across various Southeast Asian nations, and erecting a robust online betting site centered on virtual play.

Once he reached that stature, had Haojiang's power players spotted the digital wave too, he'd have been sidelined, much like how Hippo pioneered e-commerce ages ago.

Haojiang's casino resorts buzz with endless glamour and crowds. The Haojiang upper crust dismissed online betting outright, convinced no one would bet digitally.

Gambling feeds on vibe—what thrill could online versions possibly offer?

However, Haojiang's elite, trapped in old patterns, missed a key truth: while online gambling misses the buzz, its ease and round-the-clock access shine bright.

Thus, facing scant rivals, Zhong Xiaoye surged ahead on the online betting front, flourishing effortlessly. In just two years, his user base exploded, and the platform under his watch got its official new name—Moon City.

"How did you get hold of this information?"

Fang Qing raised her eyes.

It wasn't hyperbole to claim the dossier's depth might surpass even law enforcement's grasp.

"I have some connections with the He Family."

Jiang Chen replied in vague terms.

"Does Moon City also have shares from the He Family?"

Jiang Chen hesitated briefly, "It probably doesn’t. It’s written that this Zhong Xiaoye only has a partnership with the He Family. His Moon City has obtained a massive amount of customer data, knowing exactly who has money, who the real big clients are, who’s borrowing money to play. It’s crystal clear to him. So he has many ways to draw users from online to offline and make money together with the He Family, but with one condition, which is for the He Family to lease the VIP rooms in their casinos to him."

Aware that Fang Qing probably never visited Macau or entered a casino, Jiang Chen added more details: "Casinos in Haojiang are divided into two types, one being the main floor and the other being the VIP rooms. The purpose of the main floor is not to make money, but to create an atmosphere, serving gamblers with good food and drinks, just like free players in online games, providing emotional value. The real profit for casinos comes from the VIP rooms. Ordinary people can’t get in, and most of the clients are top high rollers, including wealthy businessmen, the second generation of rich, and others who are playing with money that isn’t theirs."
