Reborn South Africa as a police officer

Chapter 8

In fact, like the Indian police, in the eyes of the British, the Chinese police also have many problems, such as alcoholism, extortion, and gambling.

Gambling is commonplace for Chinese Americans. Mahjong, leaf cards, dice throwing, and even simple odd-even guessing can make Chinese people play countless tricks. Sometimes I have to admire some people. Knowing how to play is also a talent, but unfortunately, Many Chinese are unwilling to use their talents on the right path.

As early as in the Huayongying era, gambling together became a chronic disease of Chinese soldiers. The British officers tried their best to get rid of the problem of Chinese gambling together. They even used corporal punishment and confinement. It is ironic that the Chinese soldiers were happy with the punishment of confinement, because the prison cells of the British were clean and tidy, with two meals a day, and the people in it could rest comfortably for a whole day without hard training and Executing missions is almost like a reward for soldiers who make mistakes.

The so-called big gambling hurts the body and small gambling. In the past, Roque would play two games when he was free, but the winning or losing was limited to one shilling. Whether he lost a shilling or won a shilling, he would stop immediately .

Others don't have this self-control ability. Some Chinese policemen are bad at gambling, and their salaries are lost before they are warmed up. It is common for them to roll up their sleeves and start working when they are in a hurry. Luo Yi is one of them. Leader, this guy used to be a gangster from Tianjin Wei. He is proficient in all kinds of tricks, and usually Luo Yi sits at the dealership to open the market.

The noise came from Luo Yi's room. When Rock opened the door, a choking smell of feet mixed with the smell of tobacco burst out. It felt like being in a garbage dump in August. The sour taste is simply disgusting.

Suppressing the discomfort, Rock went in and separated the few people who were tugging at each other. The reason was simple. Luo Yi probably had bad luck today, but he was discovered when he was leaving, so he lost to the anxious Chinese policemen. Quit immediately, if Luo Ke hadn't come in time, then Luo Yi would definitely be beaten today.

"There are repeated orders from the supervisor, and it is absolutely forbidden to gather crowds to gamble. You are really not afraid of death." As a corporal of the former Huayong Camp, Rock still has a bit of prestige among the Chinese police, otherwise it would be impossible to separate the gamblers who are in a rage.

"As long as we don't tell, the supervisor won't know." Luo Yi smiled playfully, with Luo Ke around, today Luo Yi was considered to have escaped a catastrophe.

"Where's your partner? Can you guarantee that he won't report you?" Rock doesn't believe in people's hearts, he only believes that there is no impenetrable wall in the world. They are all gamblers. There is no bottom line. If you lose in a hurry, you will chop people with a knife Not rare.

"I gave him a shilling and asked him to go out to play. If he makes a small report, he won't be able to earn this money in the future." Luo Yi has a way, and the way is quite practical. This is also a talent, but it's a pity. There is no way to use talent on the right way.

"How much did you win today?" Rock stopped talking, and pointed straight to the core.

"Damn, you won over a pound from us—"

"He won a fart, he paid a thousand dollars, we thought it was wrong, and today we finally caught the thief."

"Exchange the money back, as well as the ones who cheated us before, and return all of them."

The policeman who lost the money was filled with righteous indignation, this time Luo Yi was doomed, according to the rules of the road, if he was arrested in public, his hands would be chopped off.

"Don't look for the old debt, pay back the money this time, and then come to my house, I will find a way for you to change the money." Rock doesn't turn over the old debt, and this kind of debt can't be settled, anyone wins or loses No count.

It's a blessing to have this result. Luo Yi didn't talk nonsense at the moment, and took out his pockets cleanly. Although the policemen who lost money were unwilling, they also accepted Luo Ke's mediation. If you don’t accept it, there’s nothing you can do. If the matter is brought up to the British, everyone can’t please. The British don’t care about who is right and who is wrong. As long as they participate in gambling, there is something wrong.

Back in his dormitory, Rock found a stack of bowls, each of them had a bowl of beer first, and then confessed his heart.

"What kind of skill is winning your own people's money? Rats carry guns in their nests, and they are all their own people's money. Once you tear your face, who will help you out if you have trouble in the future? My brothers are unreliable, so why not?" Can you rely on those foreigners?" In another environment, Roque would never care about the life and death of these rotten gamblers, but no matter what happens now, the entire Cape Town is estimated to be more than 30 Chinese like them. Unless it is a last resort, Roque does not want to give up any One: "Where are we? Cape Town, the largest port in southern Africa, there are countless merchant ships traveling north and south every day. Those merchant ships have to rest for a few days when they come to Cape Town. Don't you want to have some fun? Those sailors are rich, if you don't cheat those sailors, but look at those three melons and two dates in your brother's pocket, I will be ashamed for you."

The so-called relying on the mountains to eat the mountains depends on the water to drink the water. When people are in Cape Town, they should take the idea of ​​those passing sailors. Buying and reselling, the money is easy to come by, and it is naturally easy to spend. Besides, the sailors cannot stay in Cape Town for too long, and there is nothing to reason about being tricked. Rock and the others are the police themselves.

This, this is simply the right time, place and people.

"Tricking foreigners!" Luo stared like copper bells, never expecting that this is how Luo Ke makes money.

"Foreigners are not easy to cheat."

"Can foreigners cheat?"

"Maybe something will happen."

Others were also chattering, obviously a bit afraid to attack. These days, foreigners are overlords in front of the Chinese. Chinese policemen dare not resist the Indian police. Let them go to the real foreigners. The span between this is really too big

"Foreigners are human too, so why can't we be fooled? Don't forget that we are from Cape Town now, and we also work for foreigners. Don't worry about anything else. Luo Yi, I just want to ask you one thing. How is your technology?" Rock didn't This kind of concern, for other people, cheating foreigners is causing disaster, but for Roque, being able to make money from foreigners is an honor, no matter how he earns the money, black money doesn't matter.

In fact, it is not black hearted. How can it be black hearted in the civilized world. The British were still strong in the Qing Dynasty. The jungle society pays attention to the fact that if the fist is big, it is justified. To put it bluntly, flies do not bite. Eggs sewn together, the game can only trap those greedy gamblers. If you don't gamble or be greedy, Rock and the others can't use guns to force people to gamble.

"Master Luo, I'm not bragging about skills. As long as those foreigners dare to end, if I, Luo Yi, don't win their underwear back, I won't take your surname Luo." Your surname Luo has nothing to do with me.
