Tiger Police

Chapter 130
Looking at the hesitant Hu Pingtao, the supervisor sneered secretly, and he tapped the table lightly with his knuckles: "I won't pursue the details of what's going on. You just take out 2000 yuan and forget about it. "

This is a blatant rip off.

Soe Win is a scoundrel.

Usually scoundrels, hooligans, gangsters and the like like to be aggressive and ruthless, and they all belong to the dreaded type.

If Soe Win had joined a certain gang organization, today’s matter would be another solution—the supervisor would not help Hu Pingtao at all, but would directly throw him to Soe Win’s gang, and it would be settled once and for all.

The point is, Soe Win was only one person.

More importantly, he is not a native of Lada, but a native of southern Myanmar, the kind who came to Lada to work and make money.

Hu Pingtao's "uncle" in Yangon and the supervisor are old acquaintances, otherwise they would not be able to connect with this line and successfully send Hu Pingtao to the casino to work as a croupier.

As long as Soe Win is not dead, the matter will be easily resolved.

What's more, the main cause of yesterday's incident was Soe Win himself.If it wasn't for his envy, jealousy and hatred, he would not have been killed and beaten beyond recognition if he took his helpers halfway to block Hu Pingtao at night.

Casinos are not good places, and they will not buy medical malpractice insurance for you.What's more, Soe Win was injured like this, and wasted a whole night outside. Even if he was sent to the hospital, it was hard to say whether he would survive.

Instead of staying in the casino and becoming troublesome, it is better to find a car now to transport the seriously injured and unconscious Soe Win outside the city, find a secluded place and throw it away, and let him fend for himself.

There are too many similar things, and the military can't control them at all.

By the way, he took a big blow from Hu Pingtao.

……

Faced with the oppression of eating fruit, Hu Pingtao can only accept it honestly.

He returned to gaming table No. 21 with boundless anger and continued with today's work.

Ruan Chengdong won a lot of money again, and when he saw Hu Pingtao coming back, he smiled and threw two chips over while smoking a cigarette.

"Young man, you always bring me good luck." Before Hu Pingtao could say "thank you", Ruan Chengdong smiled and said, "I don't think you are very happy?"

Hu Pingtao nodded hesitantly with chips in his hand.

Ruan Chengdong's eyes revealed the shrewdness of someone who has come before.He lightly tapped the table with his finger, and said with a smile, "Are you interested in making a bet with me?"

Hu Pingtao asked curiously, "What are you betting on?"

"From now until four o'clock this afternoon, if I can win 2 yuan on this table, I will give you a [-] yuan raffle." His voice was full of temptation.

Hu Pingtao was so stimulated that he couldn't help but twitched, and asked nervously, "What if... Mr. Ruan, you didn't win [-] yuan?"

"Then you lose." Ruan Chengdong smiled: "As a bet, you have to treat me to dinner."

"Bring you to dinner?" Hu Pingtao frowned, feeling that the bet was unfair to him: "Mr. Ruan, you probably made a mistake. I'm not as rich as you imagined."

He no longer uses honorifics, and his tone has become quite blunt.

Ruan Chengdong smiled and said, "There is an Annan restaurant on the East Street. Don't worry, the price of the food there is not too expensive for just one meal, so you won't be unable to afford it."

Hu Pingtao's face was full of embarrassment. He hesitated for a long time and struggled fiercely in his mind. Obviously he couldn't resist the 5000 yuan bonus, so he finally nodded slowly.

……

When changing shifts in the evening, Hu Pingtao looked gloomy, left the gaming table without saying a word, went back to the staff locker room to change clothes, and saw Ruan Chengdong and his bodyguards waiting at the gate of Yinchip Casino.

"I thought you wouldn't come." Ruan Chengdong joked with a cigarette in his hand.

Luck cannot always follow someone, and he lost more than 1 today.Whether intentionally or unintentionally, in Ruan Chengdong's view, it is a win.

Hu Pingtao's face turned red, even young people couldn't stand the verbal provocation.He took a deep breath: "I would like to admit defeat, tonight's meal... I invite you."

The group quickly came to the restaurant designated by Ruan Chengdong.

Hu Pingtao made up his mind to order a plate of fried noodles for each person, that's all.

Unexpectedly, Ruan Chengdong just chose a private room, reached for the menu when he sat down, and ordered more than a dozen dishes in one go, making the corners of Hu Pingtao's eyes twitch.

He simply stood up, seeming to control his anger, and said seriously: "Mr. Ruan, I think you must have made a mistake. I said that I am a poor man. You ordered so many dishes, I can't afford this Meal."

Ruan Chengdong looked at him appreciatively: "Young man, honesty is a virtue. Ha ha, don't mind, I'm actually just talking casually, today I invite you to dinner, not you invite me."

Hu Pingtao opened his mouth wide, his face was full of surprise, and asked eagerly: "...but...you...didn't you say...the bet..."

"That was a joke I made with you." Ruan Chengdong handed the menu to the waiter, leaned back on the sofa, and laughed loudly: "You are from my hometown, and this reason alone is enough for me to invite you Dinner is over."

Hu Pingtao showed gratitude, but his heart was full of vigilance.

Always wanted to find an opportunity to get close to Ruan Chengdong, but never thought that he would take the initiative to send it to your door?
Could it be that he has revealed some kind of flaw?

Or was there a change of plan and unexpected support from the Siamese and Burmese?
Although it is a coordinated plan of the three countries, the Burmese people... no matter how efficient they are or how they treat drugs, they are always so ambiguous that it is impossible to guess.

To put it simply, in one sentence—the high-level officials in Myanmar hate drugs, but for the local rulers of the Myanmar army, drugs are a real cash cow.

Ruan Chengdong took the initiative to invite himself to dinner. Could it be an assist from the Siamese?
Hu Pingtao was puzzled, but the waiter had already started serving the dishes.

Annan cuisine looks very refreshing, and the method is more delicate.The taste is hot and sour, so pay attention to the original taste of the dishes when cooking.

The shop's signature dish is the spring rolls, served steamed or fried by the waiter.Steaming is a traditional method: mash rice into rice milk, pour a spoon on the pot below which is filled with boiling water, turn the rice milk away with a special small wooden pusher, supplemented by high-temperature steam, and the rice milk will steam in just a few seconds When cooked, it becomes a translucent pancake-like solid.

The method of making Nannan rice noodles is very similar to this, and the roll noodles are actually thicker and more resilient spring roll wrappers.

Hu Pingtao poured some fish sauce into his plate, and added some salt. He stirred it with chopsticks, stuffed the tip of the chopsticks into his mouth, and sucked it quickly. Good spring rolls, dipped in fish sauce and ate with relish.

The spring rolls are wrapped with chopped shiitake mushrooms, shredded chicken, shredded cucumber, fungus, lettuce, and the unique salty smell of fish sauce. Mixed together, it spreads a special sweetness on the tip of the tongue. .

Hu Pingtao’s actions were very rude, of course, he might be hungry. Before the first spring roll was eaten, he couldn’t wait to pick up the second one. At the same time, he stretched out his left hand to pick up the fried spring rolls from another plate. into your own plate.

The fried spring roll skin was drier and thinner.The deep-fried spring rolls in this shop have been improved. They are filled with beef, mixed with shredded red and white radish, plus a little chopped lard residue and pricked pork skin. They are tender and crispy, but they are different from those wrapped in The spring roll skin on the outside complements the inside and outside with a full taste.

Looking at Hu Pingtao who was swallowing food, Ruan Chengdong smiled slightly.

In a sense, spring rolls are Annan's national dish.Over the years, more and more people have accepted and liked it.However, for a mere dish, no matter how it is cooked or how it is eaten, different places are particular about it.

Ruan Chengdong has been observing Hu Pingtao.

Apart from having a dispute with the middle-aged croupier at the casino that day, and accidentally saying the phrase "Diaba", he also saw more things from this young man.

The must-have condiment for Annan cuisine is fish sauce.Many people cannot accept fish sauce, and many people love fish sauce to the extreme.There is a saying that goes well: Annam cuisine without fish sauce has no soul.

The same applies to Indian dishes and curries.

Fish sauce itself has a salty taste, and a certain proportion of salt must be added in the production process.The normal way to eat Annan spring rolls is to dip them in fish sauce first, and then choose whether to add other condiments.

But Hu Pingtao did the opposite, putting the step of adding salt first.

Ruan Chengdong is from Liran Township, Weixian County, Hai Duong Province.

Only a true Liran would do this.

The previous swearing words "di baa", coupled with the current way of eating spring rolls, are enough for Ruan Chengdong to confirm that Hu Pingtao is from his hometown, and he is the kind with a close relationship.

The waiter brought out a plate of sugarcane prawns.

Hu Pingtao didn't seem to notice, he just munched on the spring rolls.

With a smile on his face, Ruan Chengdong raised his finger to the shrimp on the plate: "Have some of this, the local dish."

Hu Pingtao shook his head without thinking, his mouth was full of food, and he mumbled, "This is not tasty...it stinks."

Ruan Chengdong was startled for a moment, then leaned back and laughed "haha".

This is a typical Liran answer.

An Nanguo has a long coastline, rich in seafood, and a huge amount of fish and shrimp caught.But Liran is a mountainous area, far from the sea.In addition, the terrain of Annan Country is special, and there are no roads in many places, especially Liran, where there is only a narrow mountain road in and out, so there is no trade in goods.

Many years ago, when Ruan Chengdong was serving in the Annan Defense Force, Liran was a poor place.People in Liran are no strangers to fish and shrimp. Most of them eat salted fish and dried shrimp, and rarely taste fresh fish.

In recent years, Annan has ceased war with his powerful northern neighbor, and the two sides have reached an agreement based on their social systems to coexist peacefully.On this basis, Annan made every effort to promote the domestic tourism market, and the sugarcane shrimp became more and more famous among tourists.

In fact, in the eyes of locals in Annan, sugarcane shrimp is a typical dish for the poor.When people who used to go fishing in the sea come back, they can sell whole big fish and fresh prawns for a good price.However, there will always be some dead small fish and shrimps left at the bottom of the cabin, which can only be disposed of at the lowest price, so the small traders have used their brains to buy back these unwanted leftovers and remove the hard fish bones , Shrimp shells, mash the shrimp meat and fish to make a paste, wrap it on a bamboo branch, make it into the shape of a shrimp, and fry it in high heat.

This way of eating was quite new at that time. Various condiments were sprinkled on the surface to cover up the smell of rotten fish and shrimp, and it smelled very fragrant.

There are sugarcane shrimp vendors everywhere in Annan, and Ruan Chengdong is very familiar with them.In order to attract tourists and to make the products look better, the bamboo sticks inserted into the shrimp meat paste were replaced with sugarcane branches. Coupled with the vigorous publicity of the Annan government, this poor dish became a national dish. The cliché has something to do with the period of French rule. With some bread crumbs sprinkled on the surface and served with salad dressing, it becomes a proper Western food.

If it is not from Annan, nor from Liran, it is impossible to say the comment "stinky".

The waiter brought a plate of roasted chicken with lemongrass grass, Hu Pingtao couldn't help but his eyes lit up, he reached out to grab the chicken leg without thinking, but suddenly found that Ruan Chengdong and the two bodyguards were silent, staring at him in silence, suddenly felt very uncomfortable Sorry, I quickly retracted my hand, with a smirk on my face, slowly wiped it with a napkin, and couldn't help but stuffed my right index finger into my mouth, and licked the sauce that was stuck there.

Ruan Chengdong smiled and said, "Eat it! We are all our own people, so don't be so restrained."

As he spoke, he pushed the plate of grilled chicken towards Hu Pingtao, and gave him an encouraging look by the way.

Hu Pingtao swallowed his saliva, a little eager to try, and at the same time showed a hesitant expression on his face.

"Mr. Ruan, what do you need from me?" This is a perfectly normal thought.As long as you are not a fool, you can see the solicitation of the other party.

Before and after contact, the meal will not be in vain.

Ruan Chengdong's smile is very gentle, but also full of emotion and nostalgia: "I am from Annan, and I haven't been back for many years. It is also a kind of fate to meet you here."

Hu Pingtao's expression looked very simple and honest, and he said honestly: "I came to Myanmar the year before last. I was in Yangon before, and I came here through the introduction of relatives. I just want to make some money and go home to ask for a wife to live well. "

This is the representative thinking of many Annan farmers.

Ruan Chengdong has been watching him: "Is there anyone you like?"

Hu Pingtao hesitated for a moment, then nodded: "Yes."

Ruan Chengdong shook his head secretly, couldn't help a trace of ridicule in his heart, sighed, and asked, "She knows you come here to work?"

"I know." Hu Pingtao's dark skin was greasy, and he was very excited when he mentioned this: "I am working hard to save money, and I will be able to get married when I go back after working hard for a few years."

Ruan Chengdong thought of the woman who kept saying she wanted to go back many years ago.If he hadn't found out that she was sleeping with another man when he came home from vacation, he would not have chosen to defect and follow Wu Qingcheng to the self-standing mountain on the border.

How many women who are waiting for you at home can endure loneliness?
"Who else is in your family?" Ruan Chengdong's eyes became more gentle.

"Only my father and sister." Hu Pingtao replied according to the previous plan, he seemed a little embarrassed: "I have to send money to my family every month. If I put it on my body, I might spend it at any time." Lost."
