Chapter 1209: Century Casino
People dispersed with laughter and returned to the dormitory to continue making their beds.

Shen Xing took out a pack of Liqun, gave Wang Yan a cigarette, and lit it up sensibly. Of course, he didn't forget Guo Limin who had been following him, but Guo Limin refused, saying he didn't know how to smoke.

Only then did Shen Xing take one and light it up.

He exhaled a puff of smoke and whispered to Wang Yan: "Brother Yan, although it's not far away, it's still considered going abroad. Don't you want to go out and see the world?"

"I definitely have to go out."

Wang Yan smiled and said, "The Immortal said that my fortune lies in the southwest, so I must go out and see how it is. I also asked others before coming here, and they told me that this place is only lively at night, so I must go out for a walk and broaden my horizons."

"That's what I thought." Shen Xing laughed, "Let's go together. We're unfamiliar with the place, so we can have a companion and avoid getting lost when the time comes. Guo Liming, do you want to go?"

"Ah?" Guo Limin was stunned for a moment, then nodded, "Go ahead."

The main reason was that he didn't go, and he didn't feel safe staying in the dormitory. After all, there was a strong man who was beaten up by Wang Yan, and he was afraid of being bullied. Instead of doing that, it would be better to go out with Wang Yan. With Wang Yan behind him, he felt safe now.

Shen Xing said: "Brother Yan, there is something I am curious about."

"explain."

"Don't hit me."

"Look at you. How many times have I told you this? I'm a good person. I just didn't know better when I was young. You didn't bully me, so why would I bully you? Don't be so hesitant."

Shen Xing looked at the thick gold necklace on Wang Yan's neck and asked carefully, "Is your necklace real?"

"What do you think?"

"I don't understand this. I just saw someone's necklace float up when it got into water...I was just curious, so I asked."

"Then you should be thankful that I'm such a good person. What you said implies that my chain is fake, right?" Wang Yan exhaled a puff of smoke and said with a smile, "If it were really fake, how embarrassed would I be? I'm so angry that you'll have to beat me up."

"Really? How much does it cost?" Shen Xing widened his eyes.

"About 600 grams."

"Oh, the price of gold is more than 200 now, right? Brother Yan, you have more than 100,000 hanging around your neck?"

Wang Yan glanced at Shen Xing. This boy was a bit clever, and his half-truths provided a lot of emotional value to Wang Yan.

He nodded with a smile: "About the same."

"Brother Yan, you are so rich!" Guo Liming said from the bottom of his heart.

Shen Xing came closer and whispered, "Brother Yan, I'm not saying this, but you have to be careful. It's a mess here. What if someone has bad intentions? It would be ok if they just want to rob us, but what if they want to kill us? I heard that the people here have guns! They are all ruthless people who kill without blinking an eye..."

Wang Yan smiled and said, "I know everything."

Seeing Wang Yan like this, Shen Xing thought that Wang Yan didn't care at all, so he didn't say anything more. After all, Wang Yan dealt with him easily and seemed to be very daring. He was afraid that if he said too much, Wang Yan would be unhappy and would have another fight with him, which he couldn't bear.

He then asked, "Brother Yan, why did you want to spend so much money on a necklace? With over 100,000 yuan, why did you come out to work? Wouldn't it be comfortable to open a small shop in your hometown?"

"What you see is comfortable, but what about what you don't see? As for how to buy a necklace..."

Wang Yan shook his head and smiled, "Have you seen Young and Dangerous?"

"Of course I have seen it, Shan Ji and Chen Haonan, they are so handsome."

Wang Yan nodded and continued, "The Shan Ji in there got into trouble and fled to the Japanese. Didn't someone buy him a Rolex? They say that when you travel around, you should wear a watch so that you can help when you encounter difficulties."

"That's what's going on." Shen Xing suddenly realized, "But it's true. Gold is hard currency, much harder than a Rolex, and it's convenient to go anywhere."

"Also, I saw that those big brothers had them, so I bought one too. Isn't this a way to show off my wealth? But I didn't expect that the first thing they would think of was that my chain was fake." Wang Yan shook his head helplessly.

"It's my fault. It's my fault."

"It's nothing. I think it's fake, so it's safe." Wang Yan waved his hand and turned to look at Guo Liming. "What's wrong with you?"

"what?"

"Why do you want to work here?"

"I saw a small advertisement posted on the roadside saying that you can make a lot of money here. There was also a slogan saying that if you come to Sanbianpo and work hard, you will get rich. I want to get rich."

Shen Xing laughed: "That's true, who doesn't want to get rich?"

"No, Brother Xing, I have to get rich." Guo Limin said seriously, "My mother is sick and needs surgery, which will cost a lot of money. My sister is still in school. She studies very well and will definitely be admitted to a key university. I have to support her studies. She will have a bright future and won't have to suffer in the future."

"Who said it won't be tiring?" Shen Xing retorted.

Guo Limin couldn't put it into words, but he insisted: "He must be living a better life than me, that's fine!"

In the original drama, Guo Limin's trajectory was not very good. He worked as a waiter in a casino, was sexually assaulted by a man, and he self-harmed, which led to his becoming a pervert and working as a thug, and he was finally arrested.

In the words of the characters in the play, he was eaten by Sanbianpo.

It is very easy for people to become bad here. If you lose control of your true heart, it only takes a moment to go astray, because there are too many bad things here.

In fact, where they are now is not the real Sanbianpo, but the Pan-Sanbianpo area. Sanbianpo is a geographical location, referring to the core area near the intersection of several major forces.

But obviously, the meaning of Sanbianpo has been extended from geography to a large area surrounding the real Sanbianpo, where there is local separatism and independence.

There are ethnic autonomous regions, warlords, drug lords, various ethnic armed forces of varying sizes, and mercenaries from all over the world. Add to that the so-called government forces, so many armed forces, attacks, annexations, and various alliances, and chaos has arisen here. It is very unsafe.

Wang Yan patted his shoulder and said, "Limin, you can't make a lot of money by working."

"I don't know how to do anything else, as long as I can earn more than I can at home."

Wang Yan smiled, said nothing more, threw away the cigarette butt, turned around and went back to the dormitory.

After making the bed, Wang Yan walked around the construction site and looked at the buildings.

This is not a large construction site, just a tall building and four small buildings. However, it occupies a large area and has a high ceiling. It is conceivable that it will be very impressive after it is completed and renovated.

Shen Xing and Guo Liming also followed him for a stroll. Shen Xing was Shen Jiandong's nephew and knew more about the situation, so he introduced it to the two of them.

"My uncle said that the owner of this Xinhao Hotel is Sang Kang, who is said to be a big man in Mobang, with more than 10,000 armed men under his command, and he is very powerful. He arranged a lot of work for my uncle and paid him generously. This Xinhao Hotel is more like a casino than a hotel. It is like Kamon, with rooms for people to stay in, but it is mainly for gambling.

But it’s not open yet. We are building a casino now, and the first phase is a hotel, mainly for tourists. I heard that business is good.”

Guo Limin said, "That's not right, Brother Xing, we should build the casino first, right?"

“Do you think they don’t know? They didn’t want to open a casino before, they just wanted to run a hotel. Business seems to be bad in the past two years, so they thought of opening a casino…”

Shen Xing gave Guo Liming a brief introduction to the situation here.

In general, this is the Bomo Federation. Since it is a federation, of course there are individuals, divided into Bobang and Mobang, which are two ethnic autonomous regions. They unite to strengthen their strength. But in fact, they are each independent...

Of course Wang Yan was also listening and he understood the situation.

Now, Bomo and Sanbianpo are both in the stage of transformation. Because before, their main business was to grow crops such as poppies and marijuana, refine drugs, and sell them all over the world. There was even a famous ruthless person who developed a world-renowned brand.

Later, they were cracked down on and various regions stepped up their anti-drug efforts.

Of course, banning it is impossible to completely stop it. The more you ban it, the greater the profits, and the more people will take risks. This is the case in China, where people are all gangsters. But obviously, not banning it will not work either.

What really caused the decline of the drug industry here was, on the one hand, crackdowns, and on the other hand, technological upgrades, from the original cultivation to the current artificial synthesis.

Planting requires land, and this place is suitable for planting and easy to plant. Compared with planting food, which requires weeding, irrigation, spraying, etc., planting harmful crops is different. It is almost like sowing seeds and letting them grow wildly, and the return is even higher. The people here are of course happy to do so. And the farmers themselves will absorb some things. If they don't plant, they will have nothing to absorb. They are all controlled people.

All these factors led to our past glory.

Synthesis does not require land for cultivation, only some chemicals are needed, which can be purchased from many places, so the glory here has become a thing of the past.

Some of the big men in the past were killed, while others are still alive. They have to continue to support their armed forces, but the income from drug production is decreasing day by day, so they began to explore other sources of income.

Such as lumberyards, jade, wild animals, and other pornographic businesses, as well as gambling. Many famous people who deserved to be shot have been looking for places to support agents to run casinos in recent years.

As for why we support agents, it’s because they live in the mountains and it’s easy for them to die if they come out…

They only have power and make people fear them when they are in the mountains and surrounded by their own armed forces. If they really come out, they might be shot in the head by an insignificant person one day...

Wang Yan held a cigarette in his mouth, looking at the unfinished building in front of him, and fell into deep thought... "Brother Yan, what are you thinking about?"

"Of course I want to find a way to get rich. I want to know how I can open a hotel and a casino here."

"Don't think about it, Brother Yan."

As they got to know each other better, Guo Limin became bolder and dared to speak out. He said, "It's too unsafe. We'd better work steadily."

"Do you think you can be safe?" Wang Yan turned and looked at him, "I'm going to slap you in the face now, what can you say?"

Being a little scared by Wang Yan's gaze, Guo Limin forced a smile and said, "No, Brother Yan, you are a good person."

"Okay, Brother Yan, stop teasing him. He's timid and can't stand being scared."

Shen Xing laughed and said, "If you really open a casino here, it may be difficult for you to return to China. I heard that you will be subject to investigation."

"Look, you still think I'm a bad guy. Opening a casino is not a crime. Gambling is legal here, and a person with a clear conscience has nothing to fear." Wang Yan waved his hand, "But that's too far-fetched. I'd better just do my job as a steelworker. After all, I need to have some money in my hands so that I can think about how to make it bigger and stronger."

"Brother Yan, you're still short of money." Shen Xing's eyes fell on the big gold chain, "It's so heavy that it's hanging around your neck. It's the weight of real money."

"Unless it's absolutely necessary, this chain cannot be moved. This is the bottom line. With this bottom line, if something really happens, at least I can hold on for a while longer."

"Brother Yan is a man of foresight." Shen Xing flattered him naturally.

"I work for your family, why do you always flatter me?"

"Hey, Brother Yan is scolding me. It's not like you didn't see it. It's just such a small construction site. What's there to be ashamed of? I don't care about how much money someone has. I don't even know my last name. Besides, our family doesn't have any money."

In this way, the three of them strolled around chatting and laughing, and it was evening.

The food was the braised pork mentioned earlier. The old workers even told the newcomers that there was nothing delicious here. But the braised pork was really good, with a salty taste instead of a sweet taste. The meat was stewed until soft and tender, fat but not greasy. When you pick up a piece, you can still see the thick soup. At the same time, a lot of eggs were stewed together, and the smell of meat and eggs was very fragrant.

Although the pure cooking skills were not high, the big pot was used for stewing, the ingredients were sufficient, and there were many people scrambling for food. Wang Yan had a good appetite, so he ate well and ate the most.

I also drank a pound of Erguotou.

Being able to eat and drink is also an important ability, just like being physically strong, it is also a representation of strength...

After dinner, everyone fell asleep around nine o'clock. Wang Yan, Shen Xing, and Guo Limin quietly left the dormitory and climbed over the fence to get out.

They were not the only ones, there were still many people who climbed over the wall together, all of them were dishonest and wanted to see what was going on. They went out in groups of three or five, each traveling together...

The location of Xinhao Hotel is quite good, or perhaps it can be said that Xiaomounong is not a very prosperous big city.

After leaving the construction site and walking for less than three minutes, after asking questions along the way, we arrived at the bustling street market.

It’s lively, really lively.

There are stalls selling all kinds of food, jade, and various first- and second-class protected animals in China, and so on. People speak different languages, including the local Bomo language, many dialects from all over the country, and some foreign faces speaking English.

Wang Yan paid for some sugarcane, and the three of them each got a piece. They walked, chewed, and looked for places to spit out the sugarcane while they watched the fresh food. They spent almost no money, they just strolled around.

It feels pretty good. Being in a foreign country, I can truly feel the different exotic customs.

Yes, it's really charming.

Occasionally, you can see some women walking by dressed very openly, and some even accompany men. This is real style.

Just as the three of them were buying milk tea at a stall, someone called out to them from behind.

"Vasa."

The three turned around when they heard the voice and saw a thin man wearing a floral shirt, casual trousers, and slip-on leather shoes. He was a very well-dressed young man who greeted them with his hands clasped together.

Vasali is a Boro language, which means good luck and good fortune. Here, people greet each other in this way. Whenever they meet someone, they must put their hands together and say Vasali to send good and auspicious blessings...

Shen Xing asked uncertainly: "Talking to us?"

"Yes, yes. The three bosses." The young man nodded enthusiastically and switched to Chinese with a strange accent, "Are the three bosses Chinese?"

"Yes." Shen Xing nodded.

"Oh, the boss from Huaxia is the most generous. Judging from the appearance of the three bosses, have you just come to our Xiaomolong?" The man stepped aside and pointed at a building behind him that looked very luxurious from the outside, "Would you like to go to our Century Casino to play a few games? Our Century Casino is the best and cleanest casino in Xiaomolong.

Many Chinese bosses come here to play, and many bosses who have just come here for tourism or business trips come to play a few games with us to experience it. I know that China doesn't have these. How about it, three bosses? Do you want to go and have a look? It's a small game, it won't cost much. "

"Thank you, we..." Shen Xing was about to refuse.

Wang Yan nodded and said, "Okay, you must get a commission, right? It just so happens that we haven't paid for the milk tea yet, so you can do it for me. If I win, you will definitely get a share of the benefits."

"no problem."

This man didn't hesitate at all, and didn't look at Shen Xing and Guo Limin, he just came for Wang Yan. Because Wang Yan was so flashy, he definitely wouldn't object to these things, and might even like them.

So he went to pay the money without hesitation, and impatiently urged the stall owner to hurry up and not keep the Huaxia boss waiting for too long. He also handed Wang Yan a cigarette attentively.

It’s Huazi.

Wang Yan sniffed it, confirmed that there was no problem, then lit it up and started smoking.

This is described in the play, the smoke will be soaked in poisonous water, and if you are not prepared, you will be tricked...

This person is a stacker, the name comes from Kamon, which is the name of people who work as gambling intermediaries. They are mainly responsible for exchanging chips for customers to make profits and introducing gamblers to take out loans to gain more benefits. They are outside and pull people in to bet. Only when others fall into the abyss can they make a lot of money...

After a while, the milk tea was ready. The three of them each had a cup, slurping it and followed the man to Century Casino.

There were uniformed guards at the door of the gambling house with black guns on their waists. As soon as they entered, a waiter came up to them, greeted them respectfully, and together with the stacker from before, led the three people to exchange chips.

The three of them looked around the environment curiously. It was large, high-ceilinged, and decorated in golden colors, but it was also very noisy. The people who were immersed in it were excited and shouting. There were beautiful croupiers dealing cards on the spot, and beautiful waitresses patrolling the venue. Some of them served drinks to people, and some leaned on a gambler, allowing the gambler to touch and take advantage of them...

"Brother Yan, are you really kidding?" Shen Xing advised when changing chips. He was afraid that Wang Yan would go astray.

"I've seen people play in movies before, like God of Gamblers, it's so powerful and awesome. Now that I'm here, I have to see it for myself. You two shouldn't play, it's easy to get into trouble, just watch me and have fun. Don't get stuck in it and then blame me for dragging you down."

The stacker said: "The boss is loyal and a good man."

"I know, you don't need to praise me. Give me a thousand chips and let me try first."

As he spoke, Wang Yan took out a rolled-up stack of red banknotes from his pocket, about several thousand yuan, and counted out ten of them.

The stacker was a little disappointed, but he still diligently helped Wang Yan change the chips, and directly took his own commission to settle the previous one.

He did not lose heart and walked towards the center of the field with Wang Yan: "Boss, have you played this before?"

"No, please introduce yourself."

Then, the stacker dutifully took Wang Yan and the other two for a stroll around the venue, introducing the rules of the game to each place they arrived at.

There are many ways to play, but generally speaking, the ways to play in relatively regular casinos around the world are similar, including Baccarat, Dice, Blackjack, Roulette, Texas Hold'em, etc.

In addition, there are a lot of game machines, the coin-operated ones, which used to be everywhere in China, but were later swept away.

The stacker asked tentatively, "Boss, that's all, what do you want to play?"

"Let's play dice. I didn't remember all the things you said. Dice are fun. Just bet on the size and the points. It's simple and convenient."

"This way, boss." The stacker led the way happily.

Wang Yan sipped his milk tea and strolled after him.

"Brother Xing..." Guo Liming looked at Shen Xing.

"Let's take a look." Shen Xing was somewhat helpless. "If he wants to play, can we stop him? Now that we are here, let's follow and take a look."

So the two of them followed...

　I would like to express my daily gratitude to the good brothers who vote monthly, recommend and read quietly for their strong support!
