Chapter 126 Bet on life?

"The next problem we need to solve is that the time we have is not enough for us to open a factory!" Lin Hao said.

"What do I need to do?" Henry thought for a moment and said, "If it's about time, I still have a 500-year deposit here."

Lin Hao didn't expect that Henry actually had a reserve fund, but Henry didn't explain anything to Lin Hao, so Lin Hao just watched him enter the room, take out a time storage device, and then hand it to Lin Hao.

However, Lin Hao did not take the time storage device, but said:

"Don't worry Henry, you don't need to worry about the money problem. I have found a solution. You can use the time you have on your hands to raise the initial capital for opening the factory!"

"Then what kind of factory should we open?" Henry asked puzzledly.

"Electric car!" Lin Hao said.

Henry was even more confused and didn't understand what this electric car was!
Afterwards, Lin Hao explained the principle of the electric bicycle to Henry. Henry was amazed at this fantastic idea and became more confident in Lin Hao.

In fact, when Lin Hao was watching this movie, he had a question: why don’t these people ride bicycles or electric cars? You know, this kind of transportation is not complicated to manufacture.

After finally coming to this world, Lin Hao discovered that this world had no concept of bicycles, and didn't even understand electric cars. They all knew how to generate electricity, but they couldn't do these two simple things.

Lin Hao felt a little strange. The technology tree of this world was surprisingly crooked, but it was able to modify human genes and display the survival time of living organisms.

But they have no concept of two-wheeled transportation, and they seem a bit weird!
In particular, when you see the protagonist's mother taking the bus, it takes her 2 hours to go home from work by taking the increased fare bus, and it also takes her 2 hours to walk back. This train of thought is amazing.

At a human running speed of about 10 kilometers per hour, the distance between Rachel's workplace and her home would not exceed 25 kilometers, and would most likely be less than 20 kilometers.

In other words, if you ride a bicycle, it will take about 1 hour and 20 minutes, and if you ride an electric scooter, it may only take more than 2 minutes. Compared with the -hour bus ride, it is simply amazing!

So, thinking of this great idea to make a fortune, Lin Hao said goodbye to Henry and called a car to go to the 1st time zone.

Lin Hao passed many levels and spent 1 year and 30 weeks to arrive at the 1st time zone, New Greenwich. This is also where the subsequent story takes place after the protagonist leaves the slums!
Lin Hao sat in the car, looking at the high-rise buildings, clean and tidy roads, and beautiful environment with green trees outside the car. He felt like he had returned to the super city in the real world.

Especially this morning, Lin Hao was still watching a group of people in the slums, scrambling for survival, and now he was in a super city, watching a group of people chatting in a cafe with a beautiful environment.

This made Lin Hao always feel that time and space were confused.

If we must make a detailed comparison, the 12th time zone is equivalent to a chaotic slum in Africa, the 4th time zone where we are located is equivalent to an emerging prefecture-level city in China, and the 1st time zone is equivalent to the prosperous capital.

Before they knew it, the car had arrived at the hotel. After getting out of the car, Lin Hao, like Will, checked into a suite that cost him two months to stay in for one night.

After checking in, it was already noon. Lin Hao ordered a hotel package at the restaurant downstairs in the hotel, which took 2 months!

To be honest, even if Lin Hao has 311 years of time on his arms, he has to say that it is really expensive!
While the pretty waitress was collecting the meal fee, Lin Hao pointed to the opposite side of the hotel and asked:

“Is that a casino?”

"Yes, sir!" said the waiter respectfully.

Lin Hao pointed in the direction of the casino and said to the waiter:
"Okay, please help me get a suitable outfit!"

Then, Lin Hao stretched out his hand again and said with a smile: "Here's a week's tip for you!"

Upon hearing this, the waiter smiled from the bottom of his heart and said:

"Okay sir, after you finish your meal, you can go back to your suite and try on your clothes!"

After receiving the tip, the waiter immediately contacted several clothing brands and asked them to bring the clothes to the hotel.

After the waiter left, Lin Hao looked around, but did not see the heroine, which made him quite disappointed.

But this is normal. He and Will came at different times. However, Lin Hao knew that the heroine's father, Philip Weiss, often went to the casino to play, so he just had to wait.

After returning to the room and trying on several sets of clothes, I spent one year to buy two sets of clothes. I looked at the time, 1·0310·00·0·06·36. I have to say, according to the consumption here, it won’t take long for all the money to be spent. Fortunately, I have an ATM.

When night came, Lin Hao arrived at the entrance of the casino. When he wanted to go in, he encountered the same problem as Will. It was not that this member was not allowed to enter.

However, Lin Hao knew that as long as he paid the money, no, according to them, he should donate one year's time, he could go in and play.

Therefore, after being stopped by the black lobby receptionist, Lin Hao directly stretched out his hand and said:

"I know the rules!"

The lobby receptionist looked at Lin Hao in surprise, and confirmed that this was the first time for this man to play here. Then he picked up the time storage device, took out one year of time, took Lin Hao into the casino, and introduced various ways to play!

Lin Hao glanced at the second floor and asked:

“Are people playing poker upstairs?”

"Yes, sir!" The black man said politely, and then reminded Lin Hao:

"However, there is no upper limit on the stakes here. Do you need me to help you set up a game?"

"Of course!" Lin Hao said indifferently.

Originally Lin Hao was planning to play in the hall, but then he discovered that the heroine's father Philip was playing stud poker at the card table. According to the plot, the heroine Sylvia would also come over.

At this time, the black man in the lobby had already communicated and came back to say to Lin Hao:
"Okay, Mr. Lin! You can play with them now. Have a good time tonight!"

Lin Hao nodded without saying anything, but walked forward and sat down. Just as this round of cards was over, the four people at the table glanced at Lin Hao.

Lin Hao also understood from the dealer's explanation that they were playing Texas Hold'em 7-card poker, and the minimum bet was 10 years, with no upper limit.

There are currently five people at the table, including Lin Hao, four guests, and the other one is the dealer. The dealer took out a new deck of cards and began to shuffle the cards in a dizzying manner.

The cards were dealt. In the first round, Lin Hao was very lucky. His cards were very good. When the betting was in the middle round, the others simply folded their cards. The 240 years of accumulated time on the timer on the gambling table all belonged to Lin Hao.

So, after Lin Hao had a total of 490 years in his hand, he calmed down a lot, and the dealer took out a new deck of cards, shuffled them and continued to deal the cards.

Philip looked at Lin Hao and was very interested in him. He saw a kind of vigor, confidence and calm temperament in Lin Hao. That temperament was very special and felt very contradictory. He had never seen it in anyone else.

So, Philip stared at Lin Hao for a long time before asking:
"This gentleman looks unfamiliar. May I ask you~!"

"My name is Lin Hao!" He looked directly into Philip's eyes! Lin Hao had traveled through four worlds, and his mental age was about seventy or eighty years old. He did not show any strangeness to Philip's attention, as if he was born to be superior.

"Philip Weiss!" After introducing himself, he continued, "I can see that you must be from a prominent family!"

"But it's not!" Lin Hao shook his head and denied it directly.

Of course he would not pretend to be a noble, as that would be too easy to be exposed, so it was better to tell the truth to avoid being exposed in the future. So he said:
"My family used to be wealthy, but now they have fallen into poverty!"

When Philip heard that Lin Hao said his family had fallen into poverty, he did not look down on Lin Hao. Instead, he asked curiously, "Mr. Lin, don't you have a bodyguard?"

Lin Hao looked at the people around him confidently and asked:
"Is it needed here?"

Philip did not comment on Lin Hao's words. He looked at the cards in his hand and found that they were a pair of kings. He felt that he could continue to bet, so he said:
"50 years!"

The other two looked at their cards and chose to call. When it was Lin Hao's turn, he didn't even bother to look at the cards and just called 50 years.

240 years have passed since the bet began. The dealer continued to deal the cards. Philip received average cards, but he had a pair of Ks as a base, so he chose to continue betting for 100 years.

Philip's next player called the bet without hesitation, and the other player folded directly. There were three players left on the field, and it was Lin Hao's turn to bet.

But at this time Philip suddenly said:

"I think in the future, when you celebrate your 85th birthday 25 times like me, and only an accident can take your life away, you will understand how to cherish the present moment!"

Lin Hao shook his head and said: "I think that only when you are strong yourself can you be truly strong!"

At this time, Philip's daughter, Sylvia Weiss, the heroine of this drama, came down from upstairs. She happened to hear Lin Hao's theory. She felt that what he said was very interesting and couldn't help but look at Lin Hao.

After all, I've experienced three worlds. I've played and slept, so I'm naturally immune to beautiful women.

But it was the first time for Lin Hao to see a big foreign horse, no, this should be a small foreign horse, only 1.6 meters tall! It felt very good!
Sylvia took off her shawl, revealing her seductive figure, but Lin Hao had already retracted his gaze at this time, and then put his hand on the machine, followed for 100 years, and then continued:

"If you simply rely on external forces, what would you do if they fail to work one day?"

Philip glanced at his daughter, then said confidently:
"I won't let that happen at all!"

"How about we play a game!" Lin Hao suggested.

Philip heard this and said with great interest:

"you say!"

"We won't even look at the next card, how about just betting blindly!"

"Very interesting suggestion!" After saying that, Philip looked at another person: "Samaran, what do you think?"

The gambler named Samaran looked at the straight that had been formed and said calmly: "It's exciting, I like it!"

After all three agreed, the dealer began to deal hidden cards to them, and none of them turned over the cards after receiving them.

Sylvia looked at Lin Hao and felt that the proposed bet was indeed exciting, and then began to become interested in Lin Hao.

After seeing Samaran agree, Philip said to Lin Hao with a smile:
"The so-called external force is actually a kind of one's own strength, such as the gap between the rich and the poor in the time zone!"

He knew that after Lin Hao followed suit, there were about 330 years left, so he asked curiously:
“How many years can you spare!”

Lin Hao checked the time and said, "330 years!"

Philip directly entered 330 years into the time storage machine, then looked at Lin Hao with a smile.

He wanted to see if Lin Hao had the courage to call the bet. You know, if Lin Hao called the bet, he wouldn't have much time left.

Samaran raised his eyebrows slightly, then looked at Lin Hao and said:

"Wow! This game is really interesting. I'm following it for 330 years!"

As he spoke, he input 330 years into the time storage machine.

Without saying a word, Lin Hao also entered 330 years on the machine, then rolled up his sleeves and placed his left arm on the table. The time on Lin Hao's arm showed a string of zeros, with only the last 0 seconds counting down.

Samaran looked at Lin Hao in surprise, then gave him a thumbs up in admiration.

At this moment, Philip and Sylvia looked at Lin Hao in surprise. They didn't expect that he would really follow, and there were only 30 seconds left on his arm.

Philip was stunned and said:

"I admire your courage to go all in!"

Then he threw out the hidden card, which turned out to be three of a kind K. Lin Hao breathed a sigh of relief after seeing the cards. He looked to the other side and saw that Samaran also threw out the hidden card, which turned out to be a straight.

Lin Hao, on the other hand, was calm and composed. He turned over the hidden cards on the table, and they were all of the same color.

So Lin Hao's card is the biggest and Philip's card is the smallest, so the winner and loser are obvious at a glance. Samaran, who thought he had won, also sighed. There was nothing he could do about it. It was because he was one step behind!

Lin Hao looked at Philip leisurely and saw that he was looking at the countdown on his arm. He then looked at Sylvia, who was also looking at him in surprise, and was nervously checking Lin Hao's face and arms.

Both father and daughter looked at Lin Hao, trying to see nervousness and fear on his face, but Lin Hao's expression was unusually calm, without any negative emotion at all.

However, Lin Hao had already seen through their expressions and felt amused. Lin Hao was certainly not afraid of the countdown returning to zero, because there were still decades of time in his system, so he dared to try extreme operations!

In fact, the cards in Lin Hao's hand were very bad before, and they were actually scattered cards. His hand at that time had four cards of the same suit, and he could also reorganize two pairs of cards.

If there happen to be a few cards in the space, you can directly change them to all the same color, or you can change one card to form a full house.

Yes, Lin Hao was ready to cheat again.

But who knew that the last hidden card could actually form a pure suit, so there was no need to change the cards anymore. It can only be said that Lin Hao's luck was too good.

Before the last second arrived, Lin Hao placed his hand on the time storage machine, and the four people's bets on 1960 were all imported into the time watch on Lin Hao's arm.
