Xiao Shan then realized that he had misunderstood.
However, this is not Xiao Shan's fault. After all, whether before or after his transmigration, he has always been a good young man with impeccable morals and has never been exposed to these things before.
It's understandable that you don't understand the casino's rules.
"Mr. Xiao, would you like to place a bet?" The manager of Yilong Casino smiled professionally. "You two are already VIPs of Yilong Casino. If you would like to place a bet, I can process it for you now, or you can send someone to our casino to let us know. You don't need to come here in person."
Although they couldn't steal Xiao Shan and Allen's money, both casino owners desperately wanted to entice them to spend it at the casino again.
After all, the owners of both casinos have now figured out Xiao Shan's identity.
Now the casino ads are up and running; bet on the dark horse of this competition and you're guaranteed to make a profit!
If Xiao Shan were still placing bets at their casino at this time, even more people would follow him and place bets at their casino!
After all, in Hong Kong today, the number of people who support Xiaoshan, whether they are celebrities in Hong Kong's upper class or ordinary citizens, is enormous.
Xiao Shan's ability to gain so many supporters in such a short time is largely due to his Chinese identity.
After all, at this time, although the people of Hong Kong verbally rejected it, their actions spoke louder than words.
Most people subconsciously still regard Hong Kong as an inseparable part of China.
The verbal rejection stemmed from the fact that mainland China was indeed not very developed at that time.
Xiao Shan's arrival also allowed these foreigners to witness the fact that China has produced many talented people.
If I don't support people from my own hometown, am I supposed to support contestants from other countries instead?
Therefore, Xiaoshan's fame even surpassed that of local Hong Kong contestants, making him the most popular contestant among Hong Kong residents.
Many young girls even idolize Xiaoshan.
He cut out his photo from the newspaper and pasted it on his bedside table.
Xiao Shan considered it for a moment and then took something out of his bag.
In reality, he took out his checkbook from his backpack in the chat group.
After taking out his checkbook, Xiao Shan asked the managers of the two casinos, "What are my odds of making it to the finals?"
At this moment, the manager of another casino seized the opportunity, stepped forward and pushed the manager of Yilong Casino to the back: "It's like this, Mr. Xiao, now it's the semi-finals, and there are many different ways to bet."
"The first type is where you can directly bet on whether a player can directly enter the finals; the odds for this type are relatively low."
"The second option is to bet on the final ranking of the players, which has very high odds."
"Right now, most people are betting on you to make it to the finals, and if we're betting on your ranking, the most popular choice right now is second place."
Although Xiaoshan has many supporters now, most people are still very rational when it comes to money.
Most people believed that the ultimate winner would be the Japanese player named Daimon Taro.
After a moment's thought, Xiao Shan signed two checks for £20,000 each and handed them to the managers of the two casinos: "I'm betting £20,000 each at your casinos, betting that I can win the championship!"
The managers of both casinos were shocked by Xiao Shan.
Is this guy really that confident?
Isn't he afraid of losing £40,000?
However, the thought that Xiao Shan had won £180,000 at their two casinos calmed the two managers down considerably.
“Mr. Xiao, the odds of you winning the championship at our Yilong Casino are now 6.8.”
"Our odds at Grand Casino are 7.3."
Xiao Shan nodded after listening, indicating that he understood.
It seems my reputation has indeed risen; even the odds for betting on my ranking are much lower than the odds for betting on whether I can make it to the semifinals last time.
After handing over Xiao Shan's check to the two casino managers, they looked at Allen standing to the side.
After a moment's thought, Allen said he would bet £10,000 at each of the two casinos that Xiao Shan would win the championship.
After watching the two casino managers leave, Xiao Shan put away the checks they had brought him.
With this money, Xiao Shan felt more confident in partnering with Lou Bancheng to do business.
After I win the championship, it will be more than enough for Lou Bancheng to get a share of the Hong Kong real estate market.
"Xiao, whether I can become rich this time depends entirely on you!" Allen put away the two checks and then looked at Xiao Shan with a smile.
"No problem, I'll cover it!"
After lunch, Xiao Shan asked Allen to drive him out.
He had to go to the bank to cash the two checks that the casino had sent and deposit them into his account.
Then I'll go to the Lou family's place again.
Xiao Shan had previously promised Lou Bancheng that they would discuss business together, and even in the current situation, he did not want to break his promise.
Furthermore, Xiao Shan also wanted to introduce Allen and Lou Bancheng to each other.
If they bring Allen into their business, they won't have to worry about interference from both the legitimate and underworld figures in Hong Kong!
However, after he and Allen left Luo Leming's manor, Xiao Shan discovered that someone was following him.
It seems that John Bull still suspects that he has connections with Tan Chengjia, and has specially sent people to keep an eye on him!
However, Xiao Shan was also flustered, since he really hadn't been involved in any of Tan Chengjia's actions after arriving in Hong Kong.
Except for the document that was finally obtained from Tan Chengjia.
Apart from Tan Chengjia and Yang Tai, no one else knew about the matter of obtaining the documents.
Although Tan Chengjia is now in John Bull's hands, Xiao Shan believes he will not betray him.
Led by Allen, Xiao Shan went directly to the office of the branch manager of the Swiss bank.
Xiao Shan had come to collect money once before, so the manager remembered this VIP: "Mr. Allen, Mr. Xiao, please sit down, please sit down!"
After sitting down, Xiao Shan didn't waste any words. He took out two checks from his bag and handed them to the manager: "Manager Bob, please deposit this money into my account."
“And mine!” Allen also took out his two checks.

Holding the checks handed to him by Xiao Shan and Allen, the manager's eyes nearly disappeared with a smile: "Mr. Xiao, Mr. Allen, please wait a moment, I'll go and process your deposits right away!"
After saying that, the bank manager darted out of the office, forgetting to even close the door.
The bank manager left for a short while, and then a woman with a very good figure and appearance, wearing a suit dress, walked in.
The woman wore black high-heeled leather shoes, and the collar of the shirt under her suit jacket was very low.
She gracefully walked over to Xiao Shan and Allen, and the two women made tea for them: "Mr. Xiao, Mr. Allen, please have some tea!"
The woman's voice was as clear and melodious as a nightingale's.
Unfortunately, he encountered Xiao Shan, who didn't even give him a second glance.
As for Allen, seeing Xiao Shan's serious expression, he felt embarrassed to act like a lecher.
After watching the woman prepare the tea, Xiao Shan waved his hand at her and said, "Alright, you can go now!"
Although the woman was very disappointed after hearing Xiao Shan's words, she still obediently took the tray and went out.
After the woman left, Allen laughed and said, "Xiao, you're still as clueless about romance as ever!"
"If you're so romantic, I can ask the manager for this woman's contact information later." Xiao Shan smiled slightly at Allen's teasing.
Allen waved his hand and said, "Let's forget it! I don't want to be hunted down by Olivia!"
About half an hour later, the bank manager returned, covered in sweat.
He handed Xiao Shan and Allen a receipt: "Mr. Xiao, Mr. Allen, because the amount you deposited was so large, it took a little longer, but everything has been taken care of for you."
Xiao Shan glanced at the receipt in his hand and then put it into his briefcase.
He nodded slightly to the bank manager, then exchanged a glance with Allen, and got up to leave.
Seeing Xiao Shan get up, Allen naturally followed immediately.
But how could the bank manager bear to let Xiao Shan and Allen leave like this?
They are now major clients of our branch!
So the manager suggested having a meal with Xiao Shan and his group, and also introducing them to the heads of several UBS branches in Hong Kong.
Xiao Shan and Allen exchanged a glance, then shook their heads and declined the manager's invitation.
He has no interest in wasting time eating!
Instead of wasting this time, we should go to Lou Bancheng's place earlier and properly refine the cooperation plan.
After leaving the Swiss bank, Xiao Shan and Allen went straight to Lou Bancheng's house.
Because Xiao Shan called Lou Bancheng when he left home in the morning, Lou Bancheng knew that Xiao Shan was going to his house today.
These days, Lou Bancheng has also seen Xiao Shan's various deeds in the newspaper reports. While he is worried about him, he can't help but feel a little proud.
These are the young talents of our great China!
Lou Bancheng was incredibly excited when he heard the maid say that Xiao Shan had arrived!
But he didn't forget his daughter's instructions and immediately sent someone to Lou Xiao'e's school to report the news.
When Lou Xiao'e learned that Xiao Shan would be visiting her home again, she repeatedly told him to let her know as soon as possible, otherwise he would not even go to school.
How could Lou Bancheng, such a cunning old fox, not see through his daughter's little scheme?
But he couldn't bear to expose Lou Xiao'e's little scheme.
After all these years, the couple had two sons, but this was their only precious daughter.
Moreover, if he and Lou's mother hadn't made a mistake in their judgment, how could they have married their daughter to someone like Xu Damao?
After Lou Xiao'e divorced Xu Damao and returned to her parents' home, she told her family about her ordeal.
Lou Bancheng and his mother felt ashamed, but even more so, they felt heartbroken.
Moreover, with such an outstanding young man as Xiao Shan now being widely reported in the newspapers, there are quite a few people in Hong Kong who harbor similar thoughts, just like their own daughter.
Moreover, Lou Bancheng knew that Xiao Shan would be returning to Beijing soon and wouldn't be able to cause any trouble with his daughter, so he could only let his daughter indulge her little thoughts as much as he could.
To be honest, if Xiao Shan didn't have a family in Beijing, Lou Bancheng would even worry that his daughter wasn't good enough for him!
Lou Bancheng personally went to the living room and welcomed Xiao Shan and Allen to his study.
Lou Bancheng was surprised that Xiao Shan had brought a foreigner with him.
However, after Xiao Shan introduced Allen's identity to Lou Bancheng, Lou Bancheng's gaze towards Allen changed completely!
If I could get in touch with the Chief Secretary's cousin, the business environment would definitely improve dramatically!
After exchanging pleasantries, Xiao Shan smiled and said to Lou Bancheng, "Uncle Lou, I currently have about £200,000 in cash to invest in your business."
Lou Bancheng was shocked when he heard Xiao Shan say that, but he immediately realized what was going on.
It's likely true that the newspapers are exaggerating the fact that Xiao Shan placed a large bet at two underground casinos.
When he first saw the news, he just laughed it off.
After all, Xiao Shan had been in Beijing all along, so how could he possibly have so much money to gamble at casinos?
It's probably just a publicity stunt by the casino.
Now that Xiao Shan has frankly told him that he can come up with 20 pounds, he suddenly realized that he probably underestimated this kid!
After realizing what had happened, Lou Bancheng said with some shame, "The only liquid funds I can use right now, converted into pounds, are only about 100,000!"
At this point, Allen, who was standing to the side, smiled and said that he could also contribute £100,000 to get involved.
After listening to Allen's words, Xiao Shan nodded and looked at the two of them, saying, "In that case, why don't you two listen to my thoughts?"
“I’m willing to take out all 200,000 pounds. As you know, I don’t need this money even if I take it back. Investing it here is the wisest decision.”
However, once I return to Beijing, I will inevitably be unable to participate in some important decisions. Therefore, in the end, Uncle Lou and Mr. Allen will still have to handle the business matters. So, I only need 40% of the profits.
Upon hearing Xiao Shan's words, Lou Bancheng shook his head and said, "That won't do! You contributed half the capital, so you should receive half the profits. What do you think, Mr. Allen?"
“Of course!” Allen nodded.
