h.e.l.lo, h.e.l.lo, this gentleman with the crow mask. Just as the man in the suit handed brother Jue the money, the man in the White opera mask who had spoken to the organizer earlier walked over and said to him,one hundred thousand dollars is not a small amount, right? You borrowed the maximum amount without even thinking, is this really a good idea?

Ha Feng bujue laughed when he heard that.Is this a question of good or bad?

The other party was stunned by his question and didnt know how to respond.

Seeing this, brother Jue chuckled and continued,Although I dont know what the next game will be like, one thing is for sure The chips are equivalent to the life in the game.

His a.n.a.logy instantly enlightened many people around him.

Since the organizer is kind enough to provide us with this kind of interest-free loan Feng bujue paused for two seconds before adding,then why should I be afraid and restrain myself?

He was right The amount of money they borrowed this time would directly determine the freedom that the players would get in the game later on. Naturally, they could borrow as much as they could.

Well The man in the opera mask thought for a few seconds and said,Humph You said that because you chose to accept the hosts protection after you failed, right? So, you dont care about the extra 100000 Yuan.

No, I chose to get off the s.h.i.+p. When Feng bujue said that, the man in the suit had already prepared the cash. Brother Jue accepted the plastic bag filled with US dollars as he said,if you choose accept protection, its like youre betting the rest of your life on this. In comparison If we choose to leave the s.h.i.+p, we still have at least a months time to think of another way.

After saying that, he took the money bag and walked to a sofa by the wall of the main hall.

Of course All of this is just my personal understanding. Before Feng bujue left, he purposely left a sentence for the man in the opera mask.You can try to borrow the minimum amount of money in a bet that might affect the rest of your life. Perhaps that will be the right choice.

His tone was full of sarcasm, and even if the other party couldnt see his face, they could feel the strong power of ridicule

Tsk The opera masked man was a little upset, but he knew that the guy in the crow mask was actually helping him, so he didnt say anything more. He just walked up, picked up a disembark if you fail contract, filled in a hundred thousand dollars, and signed his name.

To make a long story short

In less than 15 minutes, all the guests in the main hall had filled in their contracts.

Due to Feng bujues previous performance, more than sixty percent of the people managed to borrow one hundred thousand USD, which was the maximum amount they could borrow.

However, there were still many people who chose a more moderate amount of money. Most of them borrowed 70000 and 80000, but the least was no less than 50000.

After all, everyone had their own thoughts. Be it unreasonable stubbornness or rational a.n.a.lysis, not everyone would agree with brother Jues opinion just because of a few words.

And other than the monetary reward, when it came to the choice of what to do after failure, there were even fewer people who agreed with Feng bujue.

It was obvious that the desperate guests today were more inclined to the luck and hope offered by the organizer than to spend another month to think of a solution .

This was normal, because If there was a way, they would have thought of it long ago.

Another ten minutes pa.s.sed.

After confirming that all the magnetic cards and contracts had been retrieved, the men in suits and sungla.s.ses pushed the cart out of the main hall.

About two minutes later, the host appeared by the railing on the second floor again.

This time, he didnt even say h.e.l.lo and went straight to the point.Since everyone has completed the loan, then Lets get to the point.

Feng bujue could feel that the host could not wait any longer.

And brother Jue himself Was also antic.i.p.ating what was about to happen.

Other than those who have been disqualified before boarding the s.h.i.+p At this moment, there are a total of 237 guests in this main hall. The host paused for a second and then began to explain,the first game Ive prepared for you is to guess numbers.

Guessing numbers, also known as Bulls and Cows, was an ancient pa.s.sword-cracking game.

It is usually suitable for two or more people to play together.

For example, in a two-person game, one party would set a number while the other party would guess.

The person who set the numbers had to think of a four-digit number in the decimal system that had no repeated numbers (that is, four-digit, ten-digit, no repeated numbers), and could not let the person who guessed it know. After that, the person who was guessing could start guessing the numbers.

For every number that the person who guessed, the person who made the call would have to give a few a and A few B responses according to the number that the other party guessed. The number in front of A represented the number of numbers in the correct position, and the number in front of B represented the number of numbers in the correct position but in the wrong position.

For example, if the correct answer was 2358, and the person who guessed 2485, the situation would be 1A2B; The first two had been matched, so it was marked as 1a. The five and eight had been matched, but not in the right position, so they were marked as 2b.

By the same logic, if the correct answer set by the person who counted was 1234 and the person who guessed 4321, the result would be 0A4B. All the numbers were correct, but the positions were all wrong.

And so on

After a round of guessing, the person could continue to guess based on the A and B situation obtained from the previous guess until the correct answer (i.e. 4A0B) was guessed.

It was not a particularly complicated game, but it involved memory, reasoning, calculation, luck, and many other factors. It was not that simple to play.

Therefore, when the host said the words guess the number, the people below also began to make their own calculations in their hearts.

Their reactions were naturally within the organizers expectations

The host didnt pause for too long and continued,Of course, it cant be an ordinary number guessing game, because its too easy Whether its the standard rule (four-digit, ten-digit, no repeated numbers) or the mastermore rule (four-digit, six-digit, with repeated numbers), as long as you master the correct solution, you can definitely guess it after about seven times. If youre lucky, you can guess it within five times He paused.So I slightly increased the difficulty and changed it to , six-digit, ten-digit, with repeated numbers .

As soon as he said that, many people downstairs started to have a headache

The interesting thing was It wasnt the people who were bad at mathematics that were having a headache, but the people who were good at mathematics.

Just as the host had said, the standard rule of guessing numbers and the mastermore rule both had their own solutions. Even for someone who did not know the solution, as long as they had enough reasoning and a little luck, they could easily guess the answer within ten tries. (Feng bujue was in this situation, he could complete it within eight tries.)

As for ordinary people, even those with poor reasoning ability They would be able to guess it within 20 tries.

However, if you increase the number to six digits and add the premise of repeatable, then The difficulty of the guessing game will increase exponentially

Alright, I dont want to waste any more of your time

When the host said this, a large group of men in suits and sungla.s.ses came in from all the entrances of the main hall on the first floor. This time, more than a hundred people came in, and each of them was pus.h.i.+ng a small cart.

This kind of cart was different from the previous one that contained the mountain of cash. The length and width of the top was only about 100*50 centimeters, so it couldnt hold too many things. However, the height of this cart was quite high, about 1.2 meters.

What everyone is looking at right now is the table for your showdown. While the host was explaining, the men in suits had already pushed the carts to various parts of the main hall, secured them, and set them up.Your duel will be conducted under the witness of the staff. They will be responsible for recording and verifying the results of your duels, as well as supervising any cheating behavior.

Hold on! At this time, a slightly plump woman wearing a racc.o.o.n mask on the first floor said to the host loudly,what if you dont know the rule of guessing numbers? Isnt that very unfair?

Ha The host laughed.Ha ha Hahahaha His laughter was filled with contempt.

Whats wrong? Is it strange that you dont know how to play this game? The woman was a little angry and asked loudly.

Hehe Im sorry, I think youve misunderstood. The host laughed and said,Im not laughing at the first half of your sentence, but the second half He shook his head.Fairness? Fair Fair! Hahahahahahahahahahahahaha

He used three different tones to repeat the two words, and then he laughed again.

At this moment, many people in the venue also laughed. Some sneered, some laughed, and some laughed bitterly

In the laughter, the womans body trembled slightly. In the end She lowered her head in sadness and no longer said anything.

Although the host didnt answer her question directly, the answer had been conveyed to everyone here.

Okay, okay Ill continue. After laughing for a while, the host finally stopped and said,I have indeed considered that some guests might not understand the rules of the guess numbers game, so He raised his arm and gestured to the men in suits.On every table, in addition to the necessary paper and pen for the game, I have printed two detailed rules of guess numbers with pictures and text. Regardless of whether you know the rules or not, you can pick it up and take a look to confirm it again.

At this point, the host paused for a few seconds, then continued,I wont explain the details one by one, but there are a few more important rules that I think its better for me to tell you in person He cleared his throat and continued,uh huh First, everyone has to play a number guessing game with at least four different opponents. Of course, those who had exhausted their chips and could not fight were exceptions.

Secondly, in the duel, the amount of money that the party who makes a bet can call each time can not be less than 1% of the total amount of money that they hold at the beginning of the duel. If one party makes a bet again when they have no more chips in the round they make a bet, they will be considered to have lost. However, if the other party called for a round and he could not follow up because he did not have enough money, he could still use all the money he had to complete the round with the other party.

Thirdly, in order to avoid situations where someone deliberately avoids a duel, all players must accept the first two challenges from others, no matter who the opponent is. Only those who had already gone through two duels could refuse the challenges of others.

Fourth, at the end of the game, at midnight Other than the sixty-four people who have the most chips, the others, whether they are penniless or have tens of thousands of chips left Or even hundreds of thousands of chips, will be regarded as losers.

After he said these four conditions, two particularly tall men in suits and sungla.s.ses carried an expensive-looking sofa chair and came behind him.

The host turned his head and glanced back, then nodded. Then, the two big men put down the sofa chairs.

Well Thats all for now. You can read the rest of the details.

The host said and sat down leisurely.

He leaned his back against the chair, placed his hands on the armrests, and crossed his legs in an elegant and coquettish posture.

Not long after, the two men in suits and sungla.s.ses beside him brought a small round table that looked like it was made of diamonds from somewhere (if it was really made of diamonds, it might be more expensive than the eight prizes today). On the table were a few plates of melon fruit snacks and truffles (thats right, he didnt come in randomly, he used the best truffles to eat with a few other snacks) chicken feet.

Looking at his behavior, it was as if he was using a textbook method to perform what was called sitting and watching a good show.

Young master, this is the red wine sweet flour sauce with wasabi that you wanted After the host sat down, one of the two men in suits and sungla.s.ses went to get a drink that didnt look good. He placed it on the tray and handed it to the host.The head chef said that this is a 1982 Lafite, G.o.dfathers exquisite sauce, and j.a.pan

Wheres the umbrella? The host didnt let the other party finish his sentence and interrupted him with a somewhat inexplicable question.

Eh? The burly man was stunned for a moment.Umbrella Umbrella? It seemed that he didnt understand the meaning of the young master question.

Didnt I already tell you? The host shrugged.After its done, put it in a wine gla.s.s, put it under a small umbrella, and then bring it up.

Your Your subordinate understands! In the face of this nonsensical request, the burly man actually replied very seriously,Ill go and throw it away now and let them do it again!

Sigh Forget it, forget it. The host stopped the burly man, took the exotic drink, and held it in his hand Then, in a sad tone, he said,regret is sometimes a kind of beauty~
