The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 2305: Chapter 2305

”Ladies and gentlemen, the fourth and fifth decks each have a gambling hall. The gambling hall on the fourth deck is for guests from decks one, two, and three. The fifth deck’s gambling hall is smaller but exclusively open for guests from the sixth deck.”

”If any of you want to experience the bustling fourth deck gambling hall, you can use your tickets to pass through. If you’re looking for a better environment, stronger opponents, and higher stakes, you can head to the fifth deck gambling hall.”

Listening to the maiden’s introduction, Carson Flores laughed, ”Looks like buying a more expensive ticket indeed offers different services.”

Selric Roth explained with a smile, ”While gambling halls are places for gambling, they’re also places to make friends. Guests seated in the sixth deck cabins are usually either rich or noble, and engaging with each other in the gambling halls is the easiest way to become acquainted.”

”From gambling halls, one can then delve deeper into dining, entertainment, and leisure. It’s normal to make friends and discuss business during this process. So many guests wouldn’t miss this chance to expand their network, after all, having more friends means having more paths.”

Carson Flores agreed, ”Indeed, social circles are important. If you are within this circle, you can access resources and information that those outside the circle can never reach. With these resources or information, integrating them allows one to easily gain tremendous profits.”

Selric Roth chuckled, ”Not just for businessmen like us, even powerful cultivators abound here, and they too need exchanges of information, resource integration, and friends...”

What Selric Roth mentioned was something Carson Flores was very familiar with; isn’t this just a high-class club in the mortal realm?

Club members are either rich or noble, all members pay a substantial membership fee, and members organize various activities, exchange information, integrate resources, and earn more profits together.

This is the ”circle” Carson Flores referred to earlier. If you are part of this circle, you can use your resources for exchanges and swap for what you need.

If you are not in this circle, even if you have enough capital, you might not find the right opportunity. It’s like people often say, ”carrying a pig’s head and can’t find the temple gate.”

This journey is long, everyone will stay on the ship for quite a while, allowing plenty of time for acquaintances to deepen into friendships, and perhaps by the end of the journey, the profits gained far exceed the million spirit stones for the ticket.

This might be why the ticket price for premium cabins is so high yet in short supply.

Everyone entered the gambling hall, which was not very large, with various gambling setups. The hall was already filled with guests, both men and women, young and old, sitting around different tables, gambling and conversing in low tones.

Carson Flores glanced around and his gaze became rather intrigued.

He saw several Taoists mingling among the crowd, clearly members of the visiting delegation.

In a low voice, Carson Flores asked, ”Can Taoists gamble?”

Selric Roth glanced over and replied quietly, ”The rules for Taoists aren’t as strict as those for monks. Fiction emphasizes acting freely, and there’s no specific Taoist code that prohibits gambling. As for the Dragon Mountain Sect, they are called Taoists more because they practice Daoist techniques. They can even marry and have children. Apart from some regulations they need to follow, they’re not much different from regular cultivators...”

Carson Flores instinctively thought of Floating Cloud from Dragon Mountain Sect, and Sergio Wilkins, who went to Dragon Cloud Mountain with him. He wondered how he was doing now?

Should he inquire from the Dragon Mountain Sect Taoists?

Were any Taoists from Dragon Cloud Mountain here among the Dragon Mountain Sect delegates?

”Flores, which one do you want to try?”

Carson Flores, lost in thought, naturally glanced toward the Taoists’ direction: ”I see they’re playing dice, guessing the numbers. That seems simple; I’ll start with that...”

Selric Roth laughed, ”You’ll need to exchange for chips first. Here, the minimum bet is ten thousand spirit stones, and the maximum is a billion spirit stones. If you want something larger, you can apply for a premium room service.”

Carson Flores laughed heartily, ”Then I’ll exchange ten million spirit stones to play; if I lose, I’ll keep going.”
