Chapter 1 Have you decided to gamble?

New York, Port District, Seven Axes Bar.

A Chinese young man was carefully wiping the wine glass.

"Hi, Zhu, you can rest now. By this time, there will be no guests coming, so you can go back."

The Chinese young man Zhu Yu put the cup on its place, then came to the counter, hesitated for a moment, and said:

"John, I won't be here tomorrow..."

"Have you decided?" John, the white boss, was not surprised at all. "Now that you have decided, let's do it. Young man, I'm optimistic about you!"

"Thank you, John." Zhu Yu sincerely thanked the other party. If it hadn't been for the other party, he would have fed the fish by now.

"No, no, no, I am investing." John said with a smile, "You are a young man, I believe you will definitely succeed in the future!"

As he said that, he took out a wad of money from the counter and handed it to Zhu Yu:

"Zhu, take it! Betting on containers requires eyesight. Over the past month or so, you have shown extraordinary eyesight and memory with me.

However, eyesight alone is not enough, you also need enough money to support it. I don’t want you to go out for the first time and not even get a container..."

Zhu Yu looked at John. To be honest, although he had saved some money this month, it was still not enough.

"Take it, don't look at me like that. I'm afraid that little rich woman Joanna will find someone to fix me if she sees it..."

John was joking, so Zhu Yu simply took the money.

"Then this money is a loan from me. When I have the money, I will pay it back to you double!"

"No, no, no," John shook his finger and said with a smile, "No need. This is my investment - by the way, as long as you get something good, just take it to me and ship it!"

"Definitely!" Zhu Yu said gratefully again.

He knows that John has very strong connections and shipping channels, and this matter is indeed beneficial to both parties.

Of course, John's kindness towards himself was also sincere.

"Okay, you don't have to accompany me, old man. Go find Joanna and enjoy life when you have time. Young people, act like a young man. If I were as old as you, I would have run away long ago..."

John joked and walked out of the counter, preparing to close the door.

Zhu Yu smiled and did not answer.

Joanna's father is a large cargo yard owner in the port, with a family fortune exceeding tens of millions, so Joanna is considered a wealthy woman.

Joanna went to the bar to have fun half a month ago, and then she fell in love with Zhu Yu.

But how could Zhu Yu accept Joanna?

He is a man who has not avenged his grievances and even dare not reveal his identity. Now it is really a luxury to fall in love!

It's not that Joanna is not beautiful, on the contrary, Joanna is very beautiful!

The reason why Zhu Yu won Joanna's favor was largely because the hero saved the beauty - Joanna didn't know why, but she came over to drink and drank too much!

As a result, someone came over to tease her, and then Zhu Yu took care of her - with John's permission.

Opening a bar here, John would never allow anyone to make trouble in the bar, flirt with women, fight, etc. John's strong connections and the double-barreled shotgun under the counter also ensured the authority of his words.

After leaving the bar, he came to the staff dormitory provided by John, which was a row of converted containers. Zhu Yu turned on the gas stove, made himself something to eat, then closed the container door and began to count his savings.

A month ago, Zhu Yu was "picked up" by John, who helped him heal his injuries and took him in to work in the bar.

This month, in addition to room and board, John gave Zhu Yu a remuneration of two thousand dollars.

Zhu Yu usually received a tip of 350 US dollars, but now he spent some of it, leaving only 2100 US dollars.

Zhu Yu counted the wad of money that John gave him just now and found that it was one thousand US dollars. With 3,100 US dollars, it shouldn't be a problem to get a container.

Looking at the pile of money in hand, Zhu Yu smiled bitterly.

A month and a half ago, I would never have imagined that I would come to the United States to inherit my uncle's inheritance, and end up like this!

Almost the same as Kuroto!

Zhu Yu's uncle came to the United States in the 1980s and married a local rich woman, but he had no children.

At the beginning of this century, Zhu Yu's uncle returned to China to visit relatives and made it clear that all his billions of family property would be given to Zhu Yu.

At that time, Zhu Yu's parents, brother, and even Zhu Yu himself thought that his uncle was joking.

However, just a month and a half ago, someone called Zhu Yu and said that according to Uncle Zhu Yu's will, Zhu Yu was asked to go to the United States to inherit the inheritance.

The other party faxed Uncle Zhu Yu's will, so it doesn't look like it's a fake.

Zhu Yu's father asked Zhu Yu to come over to see if he would inherit the inheritance or not. At least he could bring Uncle Zhu Yu's ashes back.

The fallen leaves return to their roots, which is also one of Uncle Zhu Yu's last wishes.

Zhu Yu graduated from university and later worked in a foreign company for two years. He had no problem speaking in English, so he completed the procedures and got here.

As a result, the negotiation went well at the beginning, but the lawyer insisted that Zhu Yu hand over his jade pendant - this jade pendant was passed down from the Zhu family's ancestors.

The pattern is the yin and yang fish shape of the Tai Chi diagram, and the two pendants can be combined into one - Zhu Yu's father got the white pendant, and Zhu Yu's uncle got the black pendant.

Zhu Yu was cautious and asked the other party to also bring out the black pendant.

As a result, the opponent revealed his secret and started to hunt Zhu Yu.

Fortunately, Zhu Yu was well prepared and escaped, but was also injured.

Although Zhu Yu had his passport and other items with him, all his packages and other items were left in the hotel where the negotiations were held, and he had no money on him.

If John hadn't "picked" him up, he would really be feeding the fish now.

Although Zhu Yu stayed here for a month with peace of mind, he still gained nothing - he gained the Sky Eye!

Take out the white fish pendant from your neck. This jade pendant looks ordinary in color, but who would have known that after being stained with Zhu Yu's blood, this thing would actually make Zhu Yu open his eyes!

Looking at the edge of the container, Zhu Yu actually saw the outside of the container!

A truck drove by slowly. The driver of the truck looked normal. Who would have known that his hand had reached into his crotch?

Zhu Yu looked away, feeling a little dizzy.

Opening the celestial eye is equivalent to clairvoyance and requires a certain amount of mental power.

The way to train your mental strength and keep your clairvoyance open longer is to wear the black pendant.

This is one of the reasons why Zhu Yu must stay!

We must find out what happened to the uncle and get the black pendant back!

In the bar, Zhu Yu came into contact with all kinds of people.

Apart from sailors and container drivers, the largest group is container treasure hunters!

At the New York port, there are a large number of containers that are unclaimed every day, or that are auctioned because the futures owners cannot pay the rent.

Zhu Yu heard many legends about getting rich overnight from these people.

I also heard that some seemingly inconspicuous things hidden in the container can be worth a lot of money.

What he didn't expect was that the owner of the bar, John, turned out to be an expert in this field - many treasure hunters would hand over the items to John for processing after getting them -

Of course, John doesn't like ordinary things either.

Seeing Zhu Yu's interest, John took Zhu Yu with him when he was collecting things. This opened Zhu Yu's eyes and at the same time he also learned a lot about appraising the value of second-hand goods.

This gave him the idea of ​​betting on a few containers to accumulate initial capital.

If you are in the country, is it okay to gamble on stones?

Forget it, just stay here honestly!

Tomorrow, I’m going to bet on the container!
