Desperate Hacker

Chapter 364 Egg Breaking
Old Tang entertained Chen Qingfeng in Singapore for a day, and then the four of them set off together to Xiangjiang.

Speaking of which, this is not the first time Chen Qingfeng has come to Xiangjiang.

In the past, his biggest wish was to travel with his parents.

At that time, he imagined that one day, because of his excellent work, he would be able to earn a lot of money, so that his parents would have no worries about food and clothing, and he would take them to travel all over the country.

However, it was not until he reached middle age that Chen Qingfeng realized that this was just a pie drawn by the capitalists for office workers.

Many things seem easy, but are actually very difficult.

How can a programmer easily take a vacation?
Even if there is, are you prepared to be scammed by domestic travel agencies?

What's more, my parents' health is not good either.

When Chen Qingfeng was a child, he traveled with his parents, although it was just from a nearby city to another city. But the joy of that trip remained fresh in Chen Qingfeng’s memory until he became an adult.

And now I don't feel that way anymore.

After the plane landed, Zhao Changan found a car and took the four people to the legendary Wangbei Tower.

This is a high-end hotel in Xiangjiang, the Four Seasons Hotel.

After the four people completed the check-in procedures, Old Tang and Chen Qingfeng went to the tea room downstairs to drink tea together.

Zhao Changan and Luo Chenghui went up first and put their luggage in the room.

Originally, the hotel staff could take care of these things.

But the problem is that the four of them have just arrived, and they are so conspicuous in Wangbei Tower.

According to Old Tang, it’s not too much to be careful when going out.

So some things are simply left to others to handle.

Old Tang is the oldest among the four people. Chen Qingfeng watched Old Tang skillfully perform the tea ceremony.

Then he asked curiously:
"Do we have to stay here when we come to Xiangjiang?"

"Mr. Chen! The level of people here is different from that in Singapore. The people there are all determined to run away. They are all people who will never go back, or have no intention of going back at all! But the people here are different. , this place is called Wangbei Tower, which means that most of the guests staying here still have their hearts in the north. In fact, they are just hiding here for a while, and once they are sure that everything is safe, they will re-enter!"

……

Old Tang was talking, and then he called the waiter who was serving the guests.

Then he gave the other party some tips.

"Help me find out something! Is there a party or something here tonight?"

"This one……"

"We want to come here to meet more friends and stay for a while..."

What Old Tang said means that the other party is likely to receive tips frequently in the future.

So the hotel staff lowered his voice and whispered:

"Over there in the lounge on the third floor, some guests will go there in the evening to play Landlords, crack eggs and so on! If you are interested, you can go and sit there!"

"Fighting landlords? Beating eggs?"

Chen Qingfeng smiled immediately when he heard the names of these two poker games.

In the early years, those elites who returned from studying abroad liked to play Texas Hold'em poker.

This is what Liu Suote told Chen Qingfeng.

Especially in the financial field, some elites who have returned from overseas regard Texas Hold'em Poker as the main place for socializing.

Of course, some people think that golf is the real social thing.

But in fact, those are more suitable for entrepreneurs than for people with sensitive identities.

Playing poker is different. Everyone sits together, plays cards, and does business while talking and laughing.

After all, it didn’t say above that you can’t even play poker. But some domestic elites prefer some local games to Texas Hold'em.

For example, leveling up, fighting landlords, beating eggs, etc.

In recent years, as some financial giants from southern provinces have come to the forefront, Huai'an egg-breaking game from their hometown has become the most popular game in the entire circle.

As the saying goes, if you don’t beat the eggs before eating, you haven’t eaten. If you don’t whisk the eggs after a meal, it’s like eating in vain. If you don't crack the eggs well, you don't eat them well. If nothing happens, give it a slap and the worries will disappear.

……

Chen Qingfeng had never played it before, so Old Tang taught Chen Qingfeng some basic rules of egg-cracking.

Chen Qingfeng knew that Old Tang would not act without aim, so he earnestly learned from Old Tang while drinking tea.

"Mr. Chen! I'll go with you tonight. We don't know anyone here, but if we play cards together, as long as we can touch a few hands, we will have a good relationship. By then, we may be able to find out something about Zhou Zhihua's affairs. !”

……

play cards?

Chen Qingfeng really couldn't understand Old Tang's methods.

However, considering that Old Tang had been an all-powerful man in Sichuan, Chen Qingfeng naturally had no contact with such high-level people, so he could only listen to Old Tang's arrangements.

In the evening, several people had a Cantonese meal together. After they were full, Old Tang and Chen Qingfeng went to the lounge on the third floor.

When I opened the door and walked in, I realized that the place was really busy.

The people staying in the hotel are actually a circle.

But this circle is a little special.

Old Tang and Chen Qingfeng stood at the door and glanced around. The lounge was very large, with a row of red wine areas in the corner and a cigar area on the terrace outside.

A man in a suit was sitting on the terrace and puffing away.

And inside, how many card tables are there?

Some people stood aside and watched others playing cards, while others grabbed a hand of cards and fiddled with the chips in their hands.

This was the first time Chen Qingfeng saw this situation, but Old Tang winked at Chen Qingfeng and motioned for Chen Qingfeng to follow him.

Then, Chen Qingfeng followed Old Tang and wandered around aimlessly.

There was a bartender nearby, and Old Tang asked the bartender to make him a cocktail.

Chen Qingfeng asked for a glass of lemonade.

After a while, Zhao Changan and Luo Chenghui also came down together.

The four people sitting at the bar soon attracted the attention of many people.

There are new faces here in Wangbei Tower every day, but those who appear for the first time are always particularly eye-catching.

It's not that there are no women here, but they are basically just foils.

There is a beautiful woman with a hot body and delicate skin sitting beside her playing cards with her male companion.

There were also some people holding wine glasses and chatting quietly.

I don’t know if I know the people here or not. In short, although there are many people, the room is very quiet.

At this moment, Old Tang bumped into Chen Qingfeng and suddenly saw a new table of guests coming to the table next to him.

"Friends! Are you enough? My friend is here for the first time today and wants to play cards with others and kill some time!"

Old Tang walked over and said hello to several people.

Two of those people knew each other, and the other one said with a Central Plains accent:
"We are destined to meet each other, and we are friends if we are destined to meet each other. Let's sit down and play together!"
