Chapter 1018: Chapter 62: Tens of Millions in Assets
Yan Shi snorted and said, "We’ve seen plenty of beauties and have grown tired of them. What we need now are some new thrills. Ah—it’s a pity! This place claims to be one of the biggest nightclubs in the Empire of Sunset City, yet it can’t satisfy me. What a disappointment." He turned to Ah Dai and gave him a meaningful look, "Brother, when we get a chance, let’s visit the Tian Yuan Clan in the Federation. With our strength, we might even be able to capture an elf for fun. I’ve heard all the Elf Clan are beauties! Heh heh."
Seeing Yan Shi’s lecherous grin, Ah Dai knew he was putting on an act, but he still couldn’t help shuddering and feebly agreed, "Yeah, we definitely should go there sometime."
Yan Shi feigned complete loss of interest and said, "Just thinking about the Elf Clan beauties makes me restless. I’ve even lost interest in gambling. Guys, this Noble Hall doesn’t seem to have much to offer either. Let’s not bother going and just exchange our chips. We should find a place to rest and then head to the Federation. Maybe, with our strength, we really could capture an elf. Then, the three of us brothers can enjoy the delights of an Alien Race."
By then, Yan Li had caught on to Yan Shi’s plan and repeatedly chimed in, "Right, right, the Elf Sisters are definitely more appealing."
Yan Shi turned to Jin Bo, whose face had slightly changed, and said, "Brother Jin, please exchange our chips for us. We’re going to leave. We’ll come back some other time."
Jin Bo was worried; he knew these three were not simple. Initially, he had sent them to the wealth-laden tables just to keep them occupied, but he hadn’t expected their superb gambling skills, which led them to win nearly two million Gold Coins. Although the casino was affluent, two million Gold Coins was not a trivial amount. Putting other concerns aside, he decided it was best to keep them here for now and leave the final decision to the owner. Thinking this, Jin Bo forced a smile and said, "Gentlemen, please don’t rush off! Could we step aside for a moment to talk?"
Thrilled, the trio knew Jin Bo had fallen for the trap. Yan Shi pretended to be reluctant and frowned, "I really don’t want to waste too much time here. Say what you need to quickly."
Jin Bo then instructed the two bodyguards behind him, "Go and guard the staircase, and let me know if someone comes." After sending off the bodyguards, he gestured covertly to Bing. Bing glanced at Ah Dai and then stepped aside as well. Jin Bo led Ah Dai and his companions to a corner of the hall and whispered, "Gentlemen, please, don’t be hasty. Actually, we do have elves here."
Faking great surprise, Yan Shi exclaimed, "What? You have them too? Seems like there are quite a few surprises here! Well deserving of the title An Hao Nightclub. Then don’t wait any longer. Bring us some elves to play with. Don’t worry, we’ll make it worth your while."
Jin Bo smiled wryly, "You must know how valuable elves are. There aren’t that many around. An Hao only managed to get a female elf through some channels, and it cost us a hefty price. Since you are indeed interested, I won’t hide it anymore. Actually, the fourth floor of our establishment isn’t a rest area like the rumors suggest. It’s actually an underground auction house that deals in extremely rare items. That female elf is one of the most precious items we auction. So far, no one has been willing to pay a high price for her. There’s an auction tonight. If you are interested, you can attend and see for yourselves. If the price is right, we are willing to sell. If you have something exceptionally valuable, you could also put it up for auction."
Ah Dai was overjoyed inside and eagerly responded, "Great, we’ll attend the auction tonight. I wonder how much that elf will sell for."
Jin Bo gave a mysterious smile, "The starting price is not very high, just ten thousand."
Yan Li murmured, "Ten thousand? That’s indeed not very high. Much cheaper than the girls here."
Jin Bo chuckled, "It’s ten thousand, but in diamond coins."
Yan Shi exclaimed, "What? Ten thousand diamond coins? You might as well rob us. That’s a million Gold Coins! That’s enough to maintain an army of ten thousand for over a year!"
Jin Bo helplessly said, "It’s the rarity that makes it valuable! There’s nothing we can do about that. It’s the price set by our superiors. Initially, we had three elves, including one male, but the other two have already been auctioned off for seventy thousand and eighty thousand diamond coins, respectively. These elves are not only pricey, but they are also fiercely powerful, even though they are restrained. It’s not easy to subdue them. Actually, the girls here are better, cheaper, and in abundant supply. They probably feel no worse than an elf in bed."
Yan Shi let out a cold snort, "Enough talk, we just want that experience. We will attend the auction tonight, and you will notify us when it’s time."
Jin Bo nodded obsequiously, "Alright, alright. Would you like to go to the Noble Hall for a while now?"
Ah Dai, aware that their chips were less than two million—likely not enough to redeem the elf—said, "Let’s go gamble for a bit in the casino. Later, when it’s time, you can come and call us."
