Chapter 282: The Elf Girl Is the God of Gamblers
Skinley is the largest royal-exclusive casino in Scott. It was converted from an earl's manor in the southern suburbs of Scott. Its area is so exaggerated that it even reaches the size of the Scott Royal City.
Skinley is not just a casino. It even has hotels, taverns, restaurants, auction halls, brothels and other entertainment venues, interspersed with various large and small gambling houses with different gaming methods.
It can be said that Skinley is actually a comprehensive entertainment city with casino as its core business, similar to the Garcia Entertainment City on the southern border of the Omo Empire, except that Viscount Garcia's entertainment city is centered around a brothel.
A high-consumption entertainment city that integrates food, clothing, housing and entertainment cannot occupy a small area. Therefore, Skinley cannot be located in the Scott city area where land prices and rents are high. It can only be built in the southern suburbs.
Scott itself is the southernmost human city in the Central Plains, and the southern suburbs of Scott are very close to the elven kingdom of Gibis, which also means that nearly half of Skinley's guests are elves.
Bai Hao thought that Skinley's choice of location was very clever. After all, gambling business was not common in southern Xinjiang, and some towns did not even have a gambling house. Therefore, this was definitely a fresh entertainment activity for the elves.
This is indeed the case. Most of Skinley's income comes from elves from other places. The elves with long lifespans are not short of money. They are happy to use gold coins in human casinos to exchange for temporary pleasure.
The biggest disadvantage of living a long time is that you will gradually lose interest in everything, and the joys and sorrows of winning and losing in the gambling house as well as the nervousness before the lottery draw simulate the ups and downs of life very well. The elves with dull temperaments like this simple and exciting experience very much.
Bai Hao chose to go to Skinley at night when the flow of visitors was the largest. The quiet and dim night was the best background for indulging in lust. The number of guests at Skinley at night was several times more than that during the day.
Bai Hao and Youla drove slowly into this glamorous entertainment city in a luxurious carriage. This was a carriage rented by Bai Hao from the local Church of the Goddess of Life. With Bai Hao's polite smile, Quilandi directly waived the rent for Bai Hao.
Whether it is the gems inlaid on the body or the expensive materials everywhere, this carriage has obviously become Skinley's most eye-catching existence.
Yula was exploring the carriage with excitement on her face, exclaiming from time to time. She had never ridden in such a luxurious carriage before. After all, the Campbell family's carriages have always been simple in appearance and focused on performance.
"Oh my god, Xiaohao, this cushion is actually made of golden cashmere. Just grabbing a few of them would be enough for my meals for a week..."
Bai Hao looked at Youla's shocked expression and said with a smile: "Be brave, this should be enough food for a month, and all three meals a day will be meat enough to fill you up!"
“It’s hard to imagine how much this car is worth!”
"It's not expensive, probably around this amount." Bai Hao raised three slender fingers.
"Three, three thousand gold coins?"
Bai Hao shook his head slightly: "Add two more zeros."
"One, ten, hundred, thousand, ten thousand, hiss!"
Bai Hao looked at the bustling street scene outside the window and said casually: "If you like it, I will buy it for you."
"As a dowry?!" You pulled at the corner of Bai Hao's clothes and said loudly,
"Haha, just be happy."
As the richest viscount in the Omo Empire, especially as he will inherit the huge fortune of the Campbell family in the future, money is just a string of numbers to Bai Hao.
Soon, the carriage stopped in front of the largest building in Skinley. As soon as Bai Hao got off the car, he was shocked by the exterior decoration.
What catches the eye are two thick door pillars, on top of which are reliefs of countless golden dragons entwined, with scarlet gems on the eyes of each dragon.
The door, door frame and even the steps in front of the door are all covered with golden floating gold. This gambling house named Yaojin Building looks magnificent under the illumination of the glowing magic stone. It deserves the name Yaojin.
Looking at such exaggerated exterior decoration, Bai Hao couldn't help but twitch his lips. He had almost no experience of spending money like water in a casino.
"Sister Lili, the money we brought should be enough..."
Xing Lili behind him smiled softly and said, "Don't worry, Xiaohao, the cost here is not as high as you think. Even if you lose a whole night, you won't lose more than ten thousand gold."
"Oh, it's so cheap..."
If the conversation between Bai Hao and Xing Lili was heard by other gamblers, they would probably go crazy immediately. After all, ten thousand gold is already an astronomical figure in the minds of ordinary people.
"Hahaha, my luck is still as good as ever. This guy Quilandi actually dares to look down on me and is so hesitant to lend me some money!"
A young girl dressed in the gorgeous clothes of the southern border elves walked out of the Yaojin Building happily. She was followed by three or four elf nobles who were also dressed in luxurious clothes, and Xifan was among them.
Her long dark brown hair naturally fell to her thighs, and two playful braids went around her long pointed ears and hung down to her chest. Her two unripe breasts were only slightly larger than Kalia's.
She has a fair forehead with bangs, phoenix eyes, willow-shaped eyebrows, a pretty hooked nose, a cherry mouth, and dimples with a light rosy blush.
Her skin is as white as jade lotus and as frosted as ice, with a slender waist and thin legs. She looks like a fairy who has fallen into the mortal world, and her every frown and smile reveals her beauty.
She is a typical elf beauty from the southernmost part of the Walterlan continent. Although she has not yet fully grown, her beauty is still so stunning that it can overshadow the moon and flowers.
Bai Hao looked at the young elf and couldn't help but complain: Old lady? This childish face seemed to be younger than Kalia's age...
But Bai Hao felt relieved after thinking about it. A thousand-year-old elf has not yet reached middle age, and the elf girl in front of him might be his grandmother in terms of age.
When Bai Hao and his group approached, Xi Fan spotted Bai Hao and immediately greeted him nervously: "Good evening, Viscount Campbell. I didn't expect to meet you in Skinley. It's really fate."
"Good evening, I too..."
Before Bai Hao could finish his words, the elf girl who was protected by Xi Fan shouted, "Are you Bai Hao? You don't look that great. I heard that you are very successful in Central Plains recently, but you are still a little bit worse than me in Southern Xinjiang... Uh uh uh."
Xi Fan quickly covered the elf girl's mouth and said apologetically, "Ahem, Viscount Campbell, don't take it to heart. She is my little daughter. She was too excited to leave Southern Xinjiang for the first time, so she talked nonsense. Don't take it to heart."
"It's okay, she's cute."
Upon hearing this, the elf girl angrily pried Xifan's hands apart and shouted, "I'm not cute. I'm much older than you. You should call me sister!"
"How big?"
"15. I'm already fifteen years old this year!"
"That's it? If you add another zero, I might still call you sister. At your age, you are probably just a babbling child among the elves."
"Hmph, do you dare to come with me to Yaojin Building to gamble? I'll show you what a gambling god is!" The elf girl glared at Bai Hao with anger on her face and said angrily.
Bai Hao looked at Youla beside him, then looked at Xifan who looked helpless, and chuckled: "Of course, it's on the way anyway."
Young people who have just arrived here don’t know their place. After making a few small profits, they think they are gambling gods. Let me, Bai Hao, help you quit gambling.
