"Bastard, kneel down!"
"I just lost my sister to a casino, and now you're going to the casino to gamble. How did I give birth to a bastard like you?!”
In the room, a middle-aged man who looked extremely muscular kicked a young man.
The muscular middle-aged man was Rheia's father, the old blacksmith, White.
The ironware forged by the old blacksmith, White, was more durable than other blacksmiths, so his usual business was quite good. The two children at home were raised very well.
As for the young man who was kicked, it was obvious that he was Leah's brother, Bert, who had lost his sister to the casino.
"It's fine if you lose. Can't you just win it back?!”
"I won three gold coins from the casino today. Soon, I will win back the 200 gold coins I owe!”
Bert looked at his father, White, with an unconvinced expression.
He was a gambler who had lost his life. He had lost Leah to the casino during the day, but he had stolen the family's money to gamble at the casino before night.
Of course, this time, Bert was a little reluctant to go to the casino in the bustling area of the city center to gamble. Instead, he went to another smaller casino.
So Bert didn't know about what happened at the casino that night.
"You bastard…"
"How can you win every day in gambling?!”
Warter's chest began to rise and fall rapidly.
An uncontrollable rage began to burn in Warter's heart. He subconsciously picked up the hammer he usually used to forge.
However, just as Warter picked up the hammer, his arm was tightly hugged by a middle-aged woman. This was Rheia and Bert's mother, Warter's wife, Wilin.
" What do you want?!"
"Bert is your biological son!”
"If you really want to fight, you can just kill me today!”
Baelin tightly held onto Warter's arm.
Although Baelin also felt that what Bert did was very wrong, she had already lost a daughter. She didn't want to see her last son being beaten to death by her husband.
Baelin was very clear about Warter's personality. He would do anything in a fit of anger. Even if it was her own son, he would probably be beaten to death by Warter.
On the other side, Bert was stunned by White's actions.
As White's son, Bert knew very well how strong his father was. Many people once joked that White was the strongest man under the Knight Apprentice.
Although it was a joke, he could more or less feel White's strength.
However, when he came back to his senses, Bert's face immediately turned red and he became angry from embarrassment.
Just as things were about to become even more chaotic, Baen hurriedly knocked on the door, attracting the attention of the people in the room.
"Uncle White, it's me, Paine.”
"I brought Li Ya back from the casino. Stop arguing.”
Paine rubbed Rheia's head, who had a strange expression on her face, and shouted into the room.
Paine could understand Rheia's feelings at this time.
After all, it was her biological brother who had lost her to the casino.
However, this was Li Ya's family matter. No matter what the Bert family did to Bert, it was Bert's family's business. It had nothing to do with Baen.
Of course, if Bert tried to turn Rheia into a bargaining chip again, then Baen would let Bert know what Lightning King Yang Yongxin was.
The projection in the world of the Crimson Pupil had once visited Aiders 'private prison. Although he was far inferior to Aiders, if he only wanted Bert to quit gambling, Pine could make Bert never want to gamble in his life.
Looking at Rheia who was crying as she ran towards Warter and Baelin, Paine smiled, a hint of envy flashing in the depths of his eyes before he turned around and left.
To be honest, Paine was actually quite envious of Rheia.
……
The next day, in the casino's CEO's office, Pei En crossed his legs and flipped through the casino's account book for the previous month.
Xilang was already dead, and Baen was now the new boss of this casino.
"Is this the account book from last month?”
"The net profit for a month is only 600 gold coins. On average, it's only 20 gold coins a day.”
After roughly flipping through the account book, Pei En's brows furrowed slightly.
The value of a gold coin was equivalent to 10,000 yuan in modern society. As a casino in the most prosperous area of the city center, it was too little to earn six million yuan a month.
Even if they had to hand over 70% of the profits to the Tarigaya family every month and deduct a considerable portion of the casino's expenses from the remaining 30%, it was still too little.
If he couldn't earn a few hundred million a month, how could he call it a casino?!
"Boss, it's really quite a lot."
"We are a casino, not a gambling customer. We mainly take the commission.”
"600 gold coins is for you alone, Boss. If you don't deduct all kinds of expenses, last month there were nearly 4,000 gold coins.”
The casino manager sitting in front of Pei En, who had a small mustache, quickly explained carefully.
After a series of explanations from the man with the mustache, Baen roughly understood that the casino's way of making money was different from what he had imagined.
Except for a few events that required the casino to personally participate, most of the gambling events were played by the customers themselves. The casino only provided a platform and a certain handling fee.
It was like asking for a table fee when playing mahjong.
A fool like Bert who lost hundreds of gold coins in one go was rare in the casino.
"I see."
"Alright, let's do what we have to do in the future.”
