Confessions of a Salesman

Chapter 1170 Frontier Town
Brother Kui said sincerely: "It's okay, it's fine to stay and make some money, besides, I can keep an eye on him! I've thought about this matter carefully, and it's true that I was too impulsive to do things, otherwise, I wouldn't let him Eat to death!"

I grunted and said, "Just think about it yourself! No one can force you to do anything, and neither can I! With me, you and Xiao Hei are the same, there is no difference!"

Brother Kui hummed and said: "I know! In fact, it's nothing to think about it! If you have money, you don't have to do anything, and you can spy on them. It's my wish! Don't think too much about it. Go back and put what you should Just do what you do!"

I nodded and said, "Don't worry, you won't be here for long!"

When Xiao Hei and I were leaving, he took out a steel ball from nowhere, tapped it lightly, and hit a light bulb in the chandelier in the hall. The light was still on, and then he said: "If you let me I know, whoever treats Brother Kui badly, the steel ball will be in his eyes next time!" After speaking, he walked out thinking he was very chic.

I looked at He Tian with some embarrassment, and He Tian said it was fine.

After walking out of the hotel, I rolled my eyes at Xiao Hei and said, "What kind of stunt is this? You can't scare anyone? The light bulbs are still on!"

Xiao Hei cut it and said, "Don't you know how thin the light bulb is?"

I groaned, and then I realized, yes, it’s not difficult to explode a light bulb, but it’s difficult to keep it unextinguished. This is still a unique skill, so I hurriedly caught up with Xiao Hei and said, “Teach me! "

Xiao Hei looked at me with disdain and said, "You? Have your fingers split? You can't learn it!"

We went back to Zhang Hailong's hotel, Xiao Hei was looking for him all over the hotel, but how could he be found, he had already run away, and we could still wait for Xiao Hei to catch him, so we started eating and drinking in the hotel, It wasn't until Zhuzi called me that I realized that Zhuzi was still busy outside, so I hurriedly called him back to the hotel.

Zhuzhu nervously entered the gate of the hotel, looked around furtively, and found us. Seeing that we were eating and drinking, he suddenly became angry and complained to the two of us. Said: "I was worried outside, but you two are eating and drinking here! It's too heartless!"

I pulled out the chair, let him sit down, and said with a smile: "Xiaohei hasn't eaten all night, so I'll eat with him and forget about you. Hurry up and eat some, if you don't have enough, order some more! I can't eat enough at their hotel!"

Zhuzi said angrily: "It would be nice if he didn't smash up his hotel!"

The little blackboard said with a straight face: "You think I don't want to! It's just that I have suffered a loss just now, so I don't dare!"

Zhuzi hummed, looked at me while eating, and asked, "How is it? The matter is resolved? How much did you pay?"

I sighed and said: "If the money is not paid, it means that someone is on the tower!"

Only then did Zhuzi see that Brother Kui hadn't come back, so he hurriedly asked, "I've already said, Brother Kui's matter is more serious, are you still inside? You can give me news! There will always be a solution, so don't worry too much!"

Then, seeing us drinking and chatting without worrying at all, he asked, "Why did Brother Kui come to the tower? You won't let him confess? You can't confess this crime. If you admit the nature, you will It’s changed! It’s not easy to fish out this person!”

I smiled and said, "The man has been fished out, but his personal freedom cannot be restored!"

Zhu Zi let out a cry, "Are you under house arrest? Or are you going to send him to a labor camp?"

Xiao Hei smiled and said: "Don't tease him, he was pushed to He Tian's side, but don't worry, the food is probably better than ours now!"

Then, I told Zhuzi about the matter, and Zhuzi said, "It seems that there is nothing wrong with it. Weihua and He Tian disagree. It will happen sooner or later. I just didn't think so soon. The contradiction between the two is divided, we really have a chance to defeat Wei Hua!"

I curled my lips and said, "It's more than a chance! I think the chances of winning are great! Wei Hua must have driven He Tian into a corner, and He Tian is going to resist! Now it seems that He Tian deliberately acted for us You see, to lure us into a trick, or Wei Hua's escape route has been arranged, and he can leave at any time, He Tian and the others are useless!"

Zhu Zi asked, "Then which possibility do you think is greater?"

I thought for a while and said, "Who can say for sure? Let's just be careful! Eat quickly, after eating, we will leave for the next stop tomorrow!"

Zhuzi questioned: "Just let Zhang Hailong go like this?"

Xiao Hei patted the table and said: "When the work is over, even if he runs to the ends of the earth, I must be able to catch him!"

Early the next morning, with the help of friends from Zhuzi, we found a Honda SUV and headed towards Linfang. The whole journey was 450 kilometers. The two of them took turns driving and tried to reach the destination before noon.

This place is less than 30 kilometers away from the border of Myanmar, which can be regarded as a small county town from the outside.

When we got to the place, we could see many people wearing minority costumes walking on the street with their backpacks on their backs. This place is much richer than I imagined. Although there are no KFC or McDonald’s chain stores, there are also large supermarkets. It is also a large hotel, there are all kinds of cars on the road, tourists are everywhere, and the market is also very lively.

I asked Zhuzi curiously: "Are there any famous tourist attractions in this place? Why are there so many tourists?"

Zhuzi explained: "The small frontier towns are all here for trade!"

I wondered: "What kind of trade can be done here?"

Zhuzi smiled and said: "Don't look at the small place, there are so many things! Here, tea, tobacco leaves, and Cordyceps, the main thing is that there are rough stones here! There are many people who come to gamble with stones! This town is out of stock. The famous origin of rough stones!"

I looked at the people carrying baskets on the side of the road. Except for the vegetables and meat in the baskets, many of them had a stone on them. I guess it was the rough stone they were talking about?
Zhuzi parked the car on the side of the road, and a local-looking person shook hands with Zhuzi who got off the car. Zhuzi briefly introduced Xiaohei and me, and then took us to a store on the street.

The house is a three-story old building, and the first floor is a restaurant that operates Yunnan Guoqiao Rice Noodles. As soon as we entered, we were attracted by the tangy aroma.

The friend of Zhuzi took us to the second floor, and then he said to us: "You better not eat the rice noodles downstairs. There are poppy shells in it. Although the amount is very small, it will also harm people's health." cause harm!"

The store on the first floor is not big, but when you go up to the second floor, you will see a large open-air platform. Walking through the platform, you will find the room. The room is large and decorated in a simple way, but it is clean and tidy.

After letting each of us choose a room, his friend went to work on his own.

With the three of us left, I asked curiously: "What does your friend do?"

Zhuzi replied: "I don't know. It seems that there is nothing to do. They are the local aborigines. Before, I helped him with a case. Later, he consulted me when he had legal matters. He came and went and became friends. , he doesn’t talk much, but he is very honest, don’t worry, this place is very safe!”

I asked Xiaohei again: "Is there any news about Zhang Xiao and the others?"

Xiao Hei hummed and said, "They have left the country and are going to determine the source of the kidney, and let us know if there is any news!"

I nodded and said, "Okay! Zhuzi, have we completed the formalities? Can we go out at any time?"

Zhu Zi nodded and said, "It's done! I've also contacted my friends from the embassy over there. If you want to go out, you can go anytime!"

At night, I saw people coming and going on the street outside the window, so I asked curiously: "Why are there so many people outside this night? Do you buy stones at night?"

Zhuzi replied: "No, a place about 20 kilometers away from here is a casino, which belongs to the border area between Myanmar and China. Many tourists like to gamble there!"

I was surprised and said, "Whose territory does it belong to? In China, except for Macau, it is probably illegal to open casinos, right?"

Zhuzi explained: "To be correct, it belongs to the border of Myanmar, but there is no need for a border defense certificate, so there are more people going there! Many of them are transferred here from Macau! There is no upper limit on the amount of gambling here, as long as you want The dealer accepts all bets, and there are all kinds of bets, you can bet on anything!"

My curiosity came up again, Zhu Zi saw it and said: "Then let's go and have a look!"

I still asked with some concern: "Isn't it unsafe?"

Zhuzi smiled and said, "Don't worry, it's a military zone, it's very safe and fair, the main thing is that if you win money, even if it's hundreds of millions, you can be guaranteed to take it away! A casino's reputation is more important than anything else! Throughout the year, many millionaires are born there!"

Xiao Hei said disdainfully: "Then there must be countless unlucky bastards coming out of there, right?"

Zhuzi said with a smile: "If you win, you lose. That's for sure. Ten bets and nine cheats are the same truth for thousands of years!"

I nodded my head and said, "There is a saying in Cantonese that if you gamble, you never lose. The casino is not afraid of you winning money, but afraid of you not betting. As long as you are willing to gamble, the money will be taken out of your bag sooner or later!"

That being said, curiosity killed the cat, so we went anyway.

Zhuzi’s friend drove a three-wheeled motorcycle and took us through a rough road to this casino. In fact, this is not as simple as a casino, it is a town. When we arrived at the gate of the town, we had already seen it Many Burmese soldiers with live ammunition stood outside the town.

All vehicles must be parked outside the town, everyone must get out of the vehicle and searched, and all offensive weapons will be confiscated.

Entering the town, there are more people inside than we saw during the day. There is a small sun in the middle of the town, which illuminates the whole town like daytime.

There are happy songs in an unknown language in the town, and girls with gorgeous makeup and heavy makeup everywhere on the street, they keep pulling the tourists passing by to the small house behind them.

Zhuzi’s friend told us that most of the girls here are from Myanmar. There is a gang behind each girl, with strict system management, the price is very cheap, and the service is also in place. If we are interested, we can try.

All three of us laughed without saying a word.

The buildings here are very simple, and they all look like temporary structures. There is only one building, Gothic style, old, like a church.

Zhuzi's friend said that there used to be a church there, but after the military control, it was transformed into a casino.

Before entering the casino, we must confirm that each of us must have at least 1000 RMB with us before we are allowed to enter.This is a guarantee for the casino. Even if you don't go in to gamble, at least you have spending power. After penniless people go in, it will definitely affect the guests inside and increase the threat of public security.

In addition, the casino only accepts RMB and US dollars, two currencies. After entering, you can directly exchange chips, which are the same as money, and you can spend them directly inside.

There was a lot of people in the casino, some people were full of red, some were depressed, some were elated, some were downcast, and there would be screams and angry curses from time to time.

We have the mentality of watching the excitement, and we have no interest in gambling at all.

There are various games in the casino, large gaming machines, poker tables, and even mahjong tables.

Zhuzi’s friend pointed it out to us, and the lobby inside said, “That’s the VIP lobby, and you can only enter with a chip of more than 10 yuan!”

I asked curiously, "What's inside?"

Zhuzi’s friend said longingly: “I heard that it’s for gambling on black market boxing matches and cockfights. There are also private gambling games. Anyone can be the banker, and there is no upper limit.”

I smiled and said, "Have you never been in?"

He shook his head and said: "No, there is too much money, I like to gamble myself, I'm afraid I can't help but want to gamble a few times, and I will lose it all!"

Zhuzi was more curious than me, so he said hastily: "Let's not gamble, we just go in and have a look, can we return the money if we don't gamble?"

Friend Zhuzi hesitated for a moment and said, "Should it be possible? I haven't heard of it, who was hacked!"

Zhu Zi looked at me longingly, and I really wanted to go in and see it, so I said, "We don't have that much cash!"

Zhuzi pointed to the ATM machine next to him and said, "See, you can withdraw cash there! Besides, when I was exchanging chips at the counter just now, I saw that you can swipe your card, and you can also pay by WeChat. Keep up with the times!"

I took out my card and said, "It's okay, I will be responsible for my own profits and losses after entering!"

Holding 10 chips in my hand, I was really a little scared. Although I have experienced bigger gambling games than this, I was put on the shelf. I did it voluntarily. I have confidence in my self-control. Yes, but once the gambler's heart is hooked, who can say it well?
