Chapter 181: Chapter 164: Buying a Private Jet?

The night in Macau was dazzling and enchanting.

Unlike the cold and quiet nights in other places, this place remained noisy and lively.

The casinos were bustling with people.

Under the tower, one might occasionally encounter “love.”

Major shopping malls were also crowded with people shopping.

However, at the City of Dreams Black Card Lounge, it was unusually quiet at the moment.

From the start to the end of the game, only a few rounds had passed.

In such a brief time, Lu Li won over six hundred million Hong Kong Dollars.

Cheng Rong, Ye Xiaobing, Mei Ruohua, and other casino staff all looked sullen.

Zheng Ya, Suqi, Zhao Haizhe, Greg, and Zhang Jianmin, five top con artists, felt powerless, unable to resist absolute strength.

Of course, the ones looking most upset had to be Wang Qin, Old Zhang, and others who were present to oversee the game.

None of them could believe that Suqi’s supposedly unbeatable game ended in a miserable defeat.

At this moment, Lu Li, accompanied by Qin Liang and Zhao Chun’ai, had left the casino.

Cheng Rong, after staying silent for a long time, turned and went into his office, immediately dialing a few partners.

Beep, beep beep.

The call was answered after only a couple of rings.

Cheng Rong opened his mouth, unsure of how to deliver the bad news to President Zhu and others.

Before he could speak, President Zhu’s furious voice came from the other end, “Damn it! Cheng Sheng, is that kid Lu cheating? Is he cheating? How dare he? How dare he win so much money from us?”

Cheng Rong bitterly replied, “President Zhu, I’m not sure if he cheated, but all the con artists you hired did, and to help you, I tampered with the cameras, so it’s best not to bring this up publicly.”

President Zhu was fuming, cursing, “I lost more than a hundred million! I must find someone to drown that kid, make him give the money back!”

President Zhu was filled with murderous intent, indicating just how furious he was.

Cheng Rong, who had been calm and composed, suddenly changed his tone and warned, “President Zhu, he cannot have any accidents in Macau. Do you understand what I mean? Otherwise… don’t blame me for being harsh!”

Lu Li had just won over six hundred million Hong Kong Dollars in Cheng Rong’s Black Card Lounge.

If something happened next and it got out…

Wouldn’t people think Cheng Rong was behind it?

How could he continue doing business after that?

Therefore, Cheng Rong felt compelled to warn President Zhu and others.

Naturally, President Zhu understood this reasoning.

He gritted his teeth and said, “Cheng Sheng, don’t worry, I won’t do anything to him in Macau. But losing over a hundred million, I just find it hard to swallow.”

Cheng Rong asked, “What do you plan to do?”

President Zhu took a deep breath and said, “Send me the game video. We’ll delete certain parts, like the evidence of Zhang Jianmin and Zhao Haizhe cheating, which can’t be kept. Then, we’ll study it frame by frame to see how that kid Lu cheated. If we find evidence, we’ll report it and have him arrested.”

Cheng Rong did not oppose this point.

After all, he had previously lost tens of millions to Lu Li as well.

If they could find evidence of cheating, they could recover that money.

Of course, Cheng Rong definitely wouldn’t get involved personally.

The impact wouldn’t be good if it got out.

After all, people came to gamble at your place.

And then you look for evidence against them.

How good could that look?

Cheng Rong readily agreed, “Okay, no problem, I’ll have someone send you the game video right away.”

…

Meanwhile, in the guest room.

Qin Liang looked at Lu Li curiously and asked, “Mr. Lu, how did you change Suqi’s cards?”

Zhao Chun’ai was also very curious and said, “Yes, we saw her hand on the big screen just now. It was clearly a pair of fives, how did it turn into something else when revealed?”

This question had been lingering in the two’s minds for a long time.

But with so many people on the way out of the casino, they didn’t dare to ask.

Now, in the privacy of the guest room, they couldn’t wait to ask.

Lu Li, having used his micro skills continuously, felt a bit tired and just wanted to rest for a while.

He looked at the two and smiled, “A great magician never reveals his secrets. My card-changing method is not something I can share with you.”

Seeing that Lu Li didn’t want to say,

Qin Liang had to sigh, “Alright then.”

Zhao Chun’ai didn’t press Lu Li either.

Her big eyes kept blinking.

For the first time, she was genuinely curious about Lu Li.

Lu Li chatted with the two for a while, then expressed that he was tired.

Qin Liang and Zhao Chun’ai, being considerate, immediately got up and said goodbye.

As soon as they left,

Lu Li went to the bathroom for a hot shower, intending to rest afterward.

As he just finished his shower and came out,

he noticed his phone screen was lit up.

Lu Li, wrapped in a towel, walked over.

He casually unlocked the screen to check.

The next moment, he saw that the money he won tonight had already been transferred to his bank account.

The account balance now exceeded nine hundred million.

Lu Li blinked and thought to himself: “Although Cheng Rong secretly tried to scheme against me, he returned the money quite quickly. It was transferred to my account in less than an hour?”

His cash assets were over nine hundred million.

Should he buy something?

Even though there was still an eleven billion funding gap for engine research.

But having money and not spending it made him feel itchy inside.

Lu Li snuggled into the covers, half-lying as he pondered: “But what should I buy?”

He had never been this rich before and, for the moment, couldn’t really think of anything.

Clothes, pants, accessories, he seemed to have enough of those.

As for housing, according to Peng Erping, if he actually cured Elder Liu, he could probably have that villa, so there’s no need to buy another.

If he wasn’t lacking food, clothing, or shelter, what should he get for himself?

Suddenly, Lu Li recalled that when he came to Macau, he took Qin Liang’s father’s private jet.

A thought struck him, “Should I buy a private jet just for fun?”

Lu Li felt this was doable.

He believed his status and position would only rise.

Eventually, he might need to travel worldwide.

With a private jet, it could save a lot of time.

From what he knew, a decent private jet costs about three to five billion RMB.

For instance, Wanda’s Old Wang’s private jet costs over three billion.

Lu Li currently had about nine billion on hand, more than enough to buy a private jet.

As for the twenty billion needed for engine research, he hadn’t collected it yet, and it’s not particularly urgent, he could earn it slowly later on.

With that thought, Lu Li couldn’t hold back anymore. He immediately picked up his phone and texted Qin Liang: “Mr. Qin, do you know the process for buying a private jet?”

Qin Liang replied quickly, “The process is quite complicated. Let me briefly explain it to you.”

Lu Li responded with “Alright.”

After waiting for a short while.

Qin Liang sent over the purchasing process.

It could be roughly divided into several parts: determining the type of aircraft you want to buy, negotiating with the manufacturer, signing a purchase contract, import-export agency agreement, and paying a deposit, finding an aircraft management company, submitting a purchase application to regulatory authorities, recruiting crew, applying to the authorities for a reserved private jet registration number, private jet transportation, paying various taxes, and completing all customs clearance procedures, etc.

Lu Li was reading this.

Qin Liang added, “Actually, you don’t have to worry about these things. If you really want to buy a private jet, just find an agency, they will handle all the procedures for you, and you just need to pay later.”

Oh!

That’s how it is!

Lu Li decided not to bother himself, replying: “Alright, can you help me find a reliable agent?”

Qin Liang replied: “Sure.”

Ending the conversation, Lu Li tossed his phone aside and fell asleep.

He slept comfortably.

However, Cheng Rong, President Zhu, Zhang Jianmin, and others couldn’t sleep.

…

Right now, a large group of people gathered around a screen studying the previous game.

Five swindlers lost a lot of money and were “invited” over by President Zhu, Cheng Rong, and others.

Hmm, President Zhu and others were not sure if Zhang Jianmin, Suqi, and Zheng Ya had betrayed them, so they kept them by their side.

“Did you notice anything suspicious?”

“I can’t see anything.”

“It’s really strange, when Suqi put down the cards it was indeed a pair of 5s, and she didn’t touch them until opening them, yet the cards changed.”

“I slowed it down dozens of times, and I still can’t see any cheating.”

“How is that possible, I’m sure they were cheating, there must be some flaw, everyone, let’s analyze it carefully again.”

A group of professionals kept analyzing.

Cheng Rong, President Zhu, and a large group of losing private bankers waited sullenly.

Initially, they studied the game video to find evidence of Lu Li’s cheating, wanting to recover the money.

Unexpectedly for Cheng Rong, President Zhu, and several private bankers, their team of professionals watched the video multiple times, even analyzing it frame by frame, and still couldn’t figure out how Lu Li was cheating.

This group of people refused to give up, determined to find out the truth.

So a large group of them kept their eyes glued to the screen, even playing it frame by frame.

This analysis went on all night.

Until dawn broke in the east.

Still, no signs of Lu Li cheating were found.

During this time, President Zhu and those private bankers suspected Suqi, Zheng Ya, and others of betrayal, and had the five swindlers checked frame by frame for any anomalies.

The final examination result was that the five swindlers were sincerely doing their job without any secret communications with Lu Li.

The five swindlers acted normally.

Yet no signs of Lu Li’s cheating were visible?

This whole thing seemed abnormal.

Unless they encountered a ghost.

Cheng Rong, President Zhu, and Zhang Jianmin naturally didn’t believe in ghosts.

But they couldn’t explain how Lu Li won the game.

The more they thought about it, the more Cheng Rong, President Zhu, and Zhang Jianmin felt a chill down their spine, thinking, could it really have been a ghost?
