After playing poker for more than ten minutes, Morgan sneered in his heart when he heard the other party's footsteps coming towards him. He finally couldn't help it anymore, but the next second, Morgan's brows jumped involuntarily.

"squeak!"

Deliberately pressing the chair and pulling the heavy sofa chair to make a harsh sound, Li Zicheng, with a smile on his face, put his coat on the back of the chair and sat down.

Provocation! Provocation without mercy!

The harsh sound of the wooden chair scraping against the marble floor made Morgan frown. His eyes that were originally looking at the cards were raised slightly. When he was about to relax his brows, he saw this Chinese man sitting in front of him.

The brows were knitted again, and even though the total of the two knittings lasted less than half a second, they still caught Li Zicheng's eyes.

"mock up!"

Sitting in front of Morgan, noticing his frown, Li Zicheng sneered in his heart, wanting to engage in psychological warfare with himself?

You know nothing about me! But I know you very well! After your death, the whole world has been studying you for more than a hundred years, and hundreds of biographies have been published. You are a celebrity! A celebrity!

If you want to ignore me, then I will ignore you!

Realizing that the other party was aware of his intentions and deliberately stimulating himself in this way, Morgan immediately raised his brows and sat there and continued to play his cards.

"There's still time!"

Despite this, Morgan's eyes couldn't help but glance at the person and chair opposite him. Without his invitation, no one would dare to sit in front of him like this!

Realizing the emotional fluctuations in his heart, Morgan took a few slow breaths and soon continued to be immersed in poker.

Seeing Morgan's silence, Li Zicheng's heart sank. He couldn't hold back his own disregard. Was he waiting for him to take the initiative to speak? Once he spoke, he knew that he would have all the initiative.

It's me who is begging him, not...

He's playing poker!

During the economic crisis in the United States five years ago, maybe he was playing poker in this room, then locked the door of a certain room and locked a dozen major financiers in New York for a day and a night, forcing them to cough up 50 million U.S. dollars.

bailout.

"Twenty million dollars? Not enough! Then he went back to playing poker!"

Recalling a documentary about Morgan, his grandson triumphantly described how he locked up those financiers in 1907, deprived them of food and drink, and spent a day and night forcing out 50 million U.S. dollars.

Li Zicheng rejoiced in his heart that he was "wise!"

Fortunately! Fortunately, I had already prepared it.

My butt sank into this chair. I had to admit that this chair was very comfortable, far more comfortable than the so-called "ergonomic chair" in later generations. After sitting for a few minutes, Li Zicheng, who had already made up his mind to spend time with Morgan, moved his hands towards

After a while, he took out a novel from his coat pocket and started reading it.

He looked at each word, seemingly carefully, but in fact Li Zicheng knew that he felt a chill on his back. Would he anger Morgan by doing this? Would he kill himself?

wrong!

Didn’t I come here just to rip him off? Since I wanted to rip him off, why did I think so much about it? After finally calming down completely, Li Zicheng immersed himself in this novel with hundreds of pages.

middle.

When Li Zicheng was immersed in the novel, Morgan saw from the corner of his eye that he was actually reading the novel leisurely, and almost threw away the cards. He... what was he here to do!

For the first time, Morgan felt a sense of frustration in his heart. The method he was most proud of was easily resolved by this young man!

Be calm, be calm!

After repeating this to himself several times, Morgan continued playing his cards.

Da da da……

The hour hand moves forward little by little, one second, one minute, one hour, until the night is driven away by the sun. There are two people by the window in the smoking room of the Morgan Library, one old and one young. One is reading a book, and the other is

During the four hours of playing cards, no one took the initiative to say even a single word, and no one showed any too many emotions.

quiet!

The smoking room was so quiet that only the breathing of the two people could be heard.

urgent!

The two people seemed calm, but in fact they were waiting for each other to say the first word.

But no one spoke, and both of them understood that they were waiting for the other person to break the silence first. Finally, the sun shone into the smoking room through the colored window, and the sun shone on the faces and bodies of the old and the young.

.

"When, when, when..."

The clock rang, it chimed eleven times!

It was already eleven o'clock at noon the next day!

Holding the novel in his left hand, Li Zicheng rubbed his throat with his right hand. To be precise, Li Zicheng, who had not had a drop of water for more than 20 hours, felt that his stomach was beating, so he bent down, took out a sandwich from his coat pocket, and tore it into pieces.

Open the newspaper and take a sip.

"damn it!"

Listening to the sound of the paper being torn apart and smelling the aroma of the sandwich, Morgan was enveloped in a strong sense of frustration for the first time. He found that everything about him had been easily resolved by this young man. Even though he had invited him to come.

, had a special meal, but this time Morgan, who had not had any water for eight hours, also discovered a fact that he had ignored in the past.

The sandwich tastes so good!

The same emotion came from Li Zicheng's heart. This was prepared for a protracted war! He took three sandwiches from the dining car. If he continued like this, Morgan would fall first, not himself. Thinking of Morgan

, Li Zicheng glanced at him and saw that there was a coffee cup on his left hand side. There seemed to be a cup of coffee in the cup!

Morgan, who was still playing poker, suddenly noticed that a hand reached out to his left. Before he could react, Morgan saw this person actually taking away his cup of coffee, drinking coffee and eating a sandwich, and even

Still reading novels!

My coffee!

Morgan, who has not drank coffee since a few years ago, will really regret it now. Why! Why didn’t he drink this cup of coffee!

Wanting to stand up, Morgan realized that this was a competition, and if he lost...

A few more hours passed and the sky became completely dark.

"Gulu..."

His stomach growled again, but at this moment, the air was still filled with the faint aroma of the sandwich, which still stimulated his empty stomach from time to time. Because his stomach was making hungry noises, the stomach wall was also a little painful.

Morgan remembered that he had heard someone say that if there is nothing in the stomach for a long time, it will cause the stomach walls to rub against each other, eventually causing gastric ulcers.

"One bite, even if it's just a bite to eat!"

Enduring the hunger in his stomach, Morgan glanced at Li Zicheng opposite him. When he saw him for the first time, he almost vomited blood. He was actually holding a novel in one hand and coffee in the other, looking so leisurely and contented.

His appearance cannot be faked by himself.

He drank a cup of coffee and ate a sandwich. Maybe... Morgan understood that if he continued to confront each other like this, he would be the first one to fail, not him. Who knows if he continued to hold on, whether he would... But...

...But I must never take the initiative to show weakness.

When Morgan was deep in thought, Li Zicheng, who seemed to be drinking coffee and reading a novel, noticed from the corner of his eye that Morgan's hands that had been playing cards had stopped, and he didn't even realize that he was paying attention to him.

.

"This old cunning guy can't hold on anymore, but... he will never take the initiative to show weakness! He is Morgan!"

He drank the coffee in the cup in one gulp, and when he put the coffee cup back on the table, Li Zicheng, who was still reading the novel, said something casually.

“The coffee is good!”

"Thanks!"

A word came out of his mouth, and Morgan, realizing that he had lost his advantage in an instant, was so angry that he almost didn't want to slap himself in the mouth!

Tie!

After holding on for more than ten hours, it turned out to be a tie!

Morgan, who had always insisted on not regretting for more than three seconds, quickly returned to normal and put down the playing cards in his hand.

"Mr. Li, I think we can have dinner and talk at the same time, what do you think?"

Of course Li Zicheng, who was already hungry, would not refuse this request.

At the dining table, while Li Zicheng was enjoying a sumptuous dinner, Morgan, who had taken a few bites of food, suddenly spoke.

"I have a job!"

"Um?"

He raised his head and looked at Morgan in surprise.

"One million dollars in annual salary! Not including dividends!"

The shock on the young man's face made Morgan finally regain his balance. He still couldn't see through himself. The young man in front of him was the only opponent who made him feel frustrated. If he could work for him, there might be nothing more wonderful than this.

Something happened!

"If you accept..."

What? Morgan wants to hire himself?
To be continued...
