Chapter 695: Why Would I Want to Buy If It Doesn’t Lose MoneyTranslator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Eh? Was this for betting?

Hong Dali looked carefully at the two people who were fighting below and smiled. “I think Three-inch Nail will probably win.”

“Three-inch Nail?” Fang Han looked down too. “Brother Dali, are you sure?”

“Yes,” Hong Dali said, smiling brightly. “There is a saying that says men can’t win against women, the young can’t win against the old, and the tall can’t win against the short.”

“This…” Fang Han did not know whether to laugh or to cry. “There is such a saying?”

Although he had some doubts, he didn’t say more. He immediately tapped a number onto the betting screen: Three-inch Nail win, 200,000.

After the robotic arm retracted, Fang Han smiled and said, “If we win, the winnings are yours, Brother Dali. If we lose, I’ll cover the losses.”

Tang Muxin and Ling Xiaoyi looked at each other. The two secretly entered a number on the betting machine too: Hell Cat win, 100.

This was the difference between the rich and the poor!

After they had placed their bets, Tang Muxin and Ling Xiaoyi grinned and said, “Hehe, let’s see who wins!”

…

At the same time, on the other side of the arena, the young man and the fat man who were at Baiwei Restaurant also entered and sat down. When the robotic arm extended from the seat, the fat man smiled and said, “Who do you think will win?”

“If it were a real fight, the tall one is definitely not a match for the other.” After he spoke, he took a meaningful look at the arena again. Then, he laughed and said, “Of course, if it’s fake, it’d be hard to say.”

After the fat man heard the young man’s opinion, he immediately gave a thumbs up. “Haha, good judgment! The tall man’s nickname is Hell Cat. No one has ever lasted more than three strikes against him. Previously, the Thunder Battle Arena lost a lot of money because of him. He was winning so easily there was no question of who would win a match. So, when such a small short man appeared to be his opponent today, I felt that something was not quite right. Before this, I had secretly asked around. This little man is nicknamed Three-inch Nail. Do not think that he is an insignificant character. His fists are just like nails. He is a top grade fighter. As long as he lands a punch, the result is set. However, it is not necessary to fake the fight. The two had fought privately before, and Hell Cat did not manage to last past thirty strikes.”

“You even know about this?” The young man was surprised. “It seems like you are very well informed, brother!”

“Haha, this is actually not good.” The fat man laughed. “Well-informed means I cannot bet on the fights. This is the unspoken rule here—So, Brother, I’m afraid there is no way even if you wanted to make some pocket money.”

“Hehe, I’ll just watch the fun.” The young man smiled and nodded. “I had no intention of placing a bet.”

“Well, that’s true.” The fat man muttered to himself and suddenly asked, “Right, brother, if you were to face these two people, what is the possibility of you winning?”

The young man’s eyes flashed, and he took another look at the two people in the arena. He said confidently, “Hell Cat is not my match. If it was Three-inch Nail, I have about a 60% chance of winning.”

“Sixty percent chance of winning?” The fat man exclaimed in surprise. “So high? These two people are First Order Planet Warriors. Brother, I know you have some skills. You’re young and already very strong. However, a 60% chance of winning, isn’t that a little too much?”

A First Order Planet Warrior was a formidable person. This young man had such ability?

At this point, the fight had reached a climax. The young man watched for a little while more and suddenly smiled. “Okay, let’s go, the match is over.”

When he said “okay”, the fat man wanted to say “It’s not yet time, let’s watch a little longer”, but he had not said it out. When the young man said “Let’s go”, Three-inch Nail had already rushed forward, fists shooting out like a nail gun. In the blink of an eye, he had hit Hell Cat’s cheek! When the words “the match” were said, Three-inch Nail’s second punch, riding on the momentum of the first punch, had made contact with Hell Cat’s chin, causing spittle to fly. When the young man finally said “is over”, the tall and strong body of Hell Cat hit the ground.

The timing was just right. It was right on the dot, not a second more, not a second less.

The fat man looked at the young man like he had seen a ghost and quickly wiped the cold sweat off his head.

This was too bizarre, right?

This was not an ordinary young man!

…

On the other side.

“God, Three-inch Nail really won?” Fang Han looked stunned as he looked down at the ring. “Brother Dali, it was just as you said, the tall can’t win against the short?” The match had ended and the winner was evident. The robotic betting machine had already transferred the winnings, minus 10% handling fees, back to Fang Han’s bank card. There could be no mistake.

“Ah, it’s just so-so.” Hong Dali grinned and nodded. “My luck seems to be quite good.”

At the side, Tang Muxin and Ling Xiaoyi were dejected. “We lost again. Dali has never lost even once when he gambled on football back on Earth. He doesn’t lose here either. It’s really…”

“This…” Ling Xiaoyi didn’t know what to say either. In the end, she could only say helplessly, “This is life…”

“It’s not like you don’t know how lucky Young Master is,” Li Nianwei said with a smile. “If you bet against Young Master, you’re sure to lose—fortunately, I secretly bet five hundred dollars on Three-inch Nail and won quite a bit.”

“Sister Nianwei, you’re terrible!” The three women immediately dissolved into laughter.

The odds for Three-inch Nail were 1:1.2. Fang Han placed a bet for 200,000, so the winnings totaled 440,000. After deducting 44,000 for the handling fee and the 200,000 that was Fang Han’s principal amount, that left 196,000 Galaxy Dollars. It was not a small amount.

“Brother Dali, this is the 196,000 Galaxy Dollars that you won.” After transferring the money to Hong Dali, Fang Han smiled and asked, “How are you going to use it?”

“Eh? Two hundred thousand?” Hong Dali had no qualms about accepting the money. The important thing was that the System did not sound any alerts, so he should squander it as soon as possible. “Let’s go out and squander!”

“Squan… squander?!” Fang Han almost died of shock. “Two hundred thousand, you are going to squander it all?”

“Yeah, money that is not spent is just numbers. It only becomes money when you spend it,” Hong Dali said matter-of-factly. “So, spending money is my specialty. I want to be the number one prodigal in the universe! Wahaha!”

“O… okay…” Fang Han finally understood why Hong Dali previously chose only the prettiest and not the most expensive item. He was a super prodigal through and through!

Since the fight was over, everyone made their way out of the arena.

When they were heading out, Hong Dali asked, “By the way, Big Brother Fang Han, anyone can register to compete in this Thunder Battle Arena?”

“It’s basically the same.” Fang Han nodded and said, “But the minimum requirement is that the fighter must be a First Order Planet Warrior. After all, without this minimum requirement, it’s too easy to die in a fight here.”

“Oh…” Hong Dali nodded, and then smiled as he said to Xiaoyi, “Sister Xiaoyi, ask Brother Levis to come here for some fun when he is free. He will definitely love it.”

“Okay.” Ling Xiaoyi quickly agreed.

“Brother Levis?” Fang Han was surprised. “Brother Dali, you have a friend who is a First Order Planet Warrior? I’ve not met him?”

“Ah, he…” Hong Dali thought about it and said, “He should be a First Order Planet Warrior, but he has been hiding in the gym since he got here.”

“You still have someone like that? Amazing!” Fang Han exclaimed in admiration, “First Order Planet Warrior, I only have a few of those.”

When they were out of the Thunder Battle Arena, Hong Dali looked around and said, “Say, the area around here is really good!”

“There is definitely a lot of people around the Thunder Battle Arena.” Fang Han smiled and said, “Why, what plans does Brother Dali have?”

“Well, I have an idea.” So, Hong Dali led everyone and started looking for a shop.

Based on Hong Dali’s attitude, Tang Muxin knew what he was planning. She didn’t expect that a thoughtless person like Hong Dali would want to advance himself. She secretly smiled and said, “Sister Xiaoyi, it looks like Dali is planning to buy property again. If Uncle Hong knows about it, he will be very happy, hehe.”

“It looks like it. I just don’t know what kind of property Young Master is planning to buy this time.” Ling Xiaoyi grinned. “Miss Xinxin, how much do you think Young Master can earn this time?”

“It’s Dali’s idea, how would I know?” Tang Muxin said with a smile, “Anyway, it should not be too bad.”

As they were talking, Hong Dali walked into a deserted small alley…

“This…” Tang Muxin was a bit uncertain this time. “There’s barely anyone around here, don’t tell me Dali wants to buy property here?”

“It… it seems like it.” Ling Xiaoyi also broke out in cold sweat. “It’s too remote here…”

“Brother Dali.” Fang Han was also curious. “What are you doing here?”

Hong Dali did not say anything and just walked forward. Soon, Hong Dali saw a small shop that he was very satisfied with. “Hahaha, I found it. This is it!”

The small shop was closed, and there was a small note on the door: “Shop for take over, contact number: 6454799132563.”

Tang Muxin was sweating profusely by now. “Dali, wait. I know that you want to buy a property, but are you sure you want to buy one in such a remote place? This place does not seem very good…”

“Eh? Who said that I want to buy a property?” Hong Dali said curiously, “I am planning to take over a store…”

“Take over this one?” Tang Muxin’s mouth gaped. “What is the point of taking over this store? If you say that you want to buy the property here and wait for the price to appreciate, there may be some gain, but taking over a store means the property does not belong to us!”

“Of course I want to take over and not buy?” Hong Dali said curiously, “Do you not see that on this whole street, there is only one property for take over? It does not say for sale…”

“This…” Tang Muxin cried, “You can’t possibly just waste money away like that?!”

“It must be done!” Hong Dali said matter-of-factly, “This is how squandering is done!”

“I’m ignoring you!” Tang Muxin turned away angrily. “Sister Xiaoyi, in the next one month, don’t tell me anything about Hong Dali’s transactions or business outside. I’m afraid I might get so mad at him I’d die!”

“O… okay…” Ling Xiaoyi sweated anxiously. “I got it…”

This time, Fang Han was really shocked. “Brother Dali, that, if you open a shop here, you might, possibly, most likely, maybe, lose money…”

“I want to lose money.” Hong Dali admitted very shamelessly. “Why would I want to buy it if it does not lose money?”

Fang Han covered his face with his palm. “…”

It works like that?!
