America 1919

Lival McKee seemed to have guessed what Donnie was about to say and excitedly stated, "I can't say that whatever I want to shake will come out, but I can at least guarantee that the probability is above 90%!"

Donnie showed a satisfied smile and said, "If that's the case, it's great. If you two don't mind, I'd like to invite you to join us at the Surf Hotel, specifically to handle the dice game. Are you interested?"

Lival McKee almost didn't hesitate at all. Before coming, he had researched Donnie and knew that in just over two years, Donnie had grown to where he was now, not to mention the two major battles on Wall Street, as well as the title of the nation's largest bootlegger. All of this proved that Donnie was an existence that he could never reach before.

If he had chosen to stop after winning half a million US dollars at the Surf Hotel before, he naturally would not have wanted to work for someone else, but the situation was completely different now, as both of them were completely bankrupt. Even if they returned to California, they didn't have any life skills, and they were also blacklisted by the major casinos there.

If they wanted to live, they could only go to other states and use the same methods to make a living, but could they take away the money they won in a strange place?

Not all casinos in the United States were called the Surf Hotel!

If he could stay at the Surf Hotel now, then he basically wouldn't have to worry about his livelihood anymore. With Donnie's status, perhaps they could also become big shots!

"Willing, very willing. As long as Mr. Block needs us, we brothers guarantee that no one at the dice table will win money!"

Donnie laughed heartily and said, "Normal is just fine. Only if the gamblers win money will they come more!"

"Understood, cast a long line to catch a big fish!" Lival McKee laughed, "This is an Eastern proverb I learned while studying dice listening!"

Donnie nodded and continued, "There's one more thing. I need you to cooperate with Joshua."

Lival McKee patted his chest, showing his determination, "Boss, just give your order!"

Donnie said, "Since you both are gambling experts, I reckon you must also know some other gambling experts. I hope you can list the people you know, and the Surf Hotel will then send out invitations to them, asking them to serve as gambling consultants for the company!"

After hearing Donnie's words, Lival McKee spoke somewhat awkwardly, "I do know some people, but I don't have much interaction with them. I'm worried..."

At this moment, Joshua Allen laughed and said, "Boss, you might not know that before this, we were like tigers on the mountain, each basically having our own territory, rarely going to others' territories to make a living. So, everyone just knows of each other's existence, but we don't necessarily have relations."

That's when Donnie suddenly realized and nodded, "It's okay, just having a name is enough. It's our job to send out the invitations. Whether they accept or not is their business!"

Donnie had three considerations for doing this!

First, as he had mentioned to Lival McKee, it was true that the Surf Hotel had recently opened and indeed needed more skilled readers to be stationed, which is the same reason you need some experts to stay in a billiard hall you've opened.

Second, even though there were no computers yet, Donnie could find these people based on the names provided, and then have someone discreetly capture these people's images. This way, when these people come to the Surf Hotel, the hotel could better prepare its defenses.

Third...

"Boss, these people are all unyielding, and trying to make them work honestly at our Surf Hotel, I'm afraid most of them won't be willing!"

Joshua Allen reminded Donnie.

Donnie laughed, "If people don't come, we can't just tie them up and bring them. My idea is, if some of them do come, we should treat them highly. And if they don't come..."

At this point, Donnie's expression changed and he said, "I'm preparing to establish a blacklist in the company, to list these real experts onto it. These people will become the most distinguished guests of the Surf Hotel, but they will only have a gambling limit of ten thousand US dollars at the Surf Hotel. Beyond this limit, the Surf Hotel will no longer accept their chips.

In addition, send my decision along with our invitations. If they insist on breaking these rules, then they are enemies of the Surf Hotel!"

This was Donnie's third consideration. Being able to break Lival McKee and Drake Watt's dice listening ability this time was entirely a fluke. If such incidents occurred a few more times, Donnie didn't have a foolproof solution.

So instead of being on guard all the time, it's better to send a clear message in advance. This way, the Surf Hotel could also prevent its losses.

If under the pre-warning, these people still want to break the rules of the Surf Hotel, then they'd be enemies of the Surf Hotel...

Donnie was in the business of running a casino, not a charity!

After listening to Donnie's orders, Joshua Allen and Lival McKee and Drake Watt, who had decided to stay at the Surf Hotel as two happy employees, immediately showed a look of admiration.
