Chapter 168: Police Officer Liu’s arrival

At this time, Huang Peng had already joined the door and said, "Mr. Zhang, you may not be familiar with these things, so I'll introduce them to you."

As he said that, he pointed to the gambling tables and machines and said, "In our casino, we mainly use 'baccarat', 'black and blackjack', 'roulette', and there are also dice to bet on size or points."

Zhang Haotian walked to a round gambling table, stroked a cold machine placed on it, looked at the appearance, and said, "Is this used to deal cards?"

Huang Peng nodded and said, "This is called a dealer. This machine is used to play baccarat."

Zhang Haotian couldn't help but say, "What is baccarat?"

Huang Peng knew that the young boss didn't understand the casino, so he said patiently: "The English name of Baccarat is 'baccara', which is recognized as the most civilized and fairest entertainment project in the world. Some people say that it originated in Sicily, Italy, and there was originally only two dealer and player participating. The dealer gave two cards to the player and himself. Whoever had the two cards combined with the closest total of 9 will win."

Speaking of this, he paused and said, "But in the 1960s, Mr. Ye Han from Macau introduced baccarat from the United States and gave it an oriental name called Baccarat. It is divided into bank, Xian, and three doors. Guests can choose bank, Xian, and any door according to their own ideas, or bet according to their own wishes. Whoever places the biggest bet will have the right to see the cards. We generally use eight decks of cards, and the dealer puts the cards in the delivery box after shuffling the cards. Players choose which party to press before dealing. Note that they can only press the bet at one place. After pressing the bet,

When dealing cards, both sides of the bank will receive at least two cards, but not more than three. The first and third cards are given to the ‘idler’, and the second and fourth cards are given to the ‘ditchmaker’. According to specific rules, if necessary, another card must be given. The side with the closest total points to 9 points wins. The side that beats the banker and wins money: one pays one, one pays one pays one pays one, but a 5% commission is deducted from the winning money, which is commonly known as the draw. If the total points of both sides are the same, the person who beats the ‘draw’ wins, the odds are one pays eight, and the bets on the ‘ditch’ and ‘ditchmaker’ will not lose or win.”

Zhang Haotian knew that Huang Peng was the only one who had attended college among Su Zhigao’s four managers in the past, so Su Zhigao gave him the casino that needed intelligence and knowledge the most. He listened to his explanation and nodded to show that he understood.

Seeing Zhang Haotian nodding, Huang Peng took him to a machine that looked very delicate and said: "Mr. Zhang, this is the famous 'roulette' in gambling, and it is also very addictive. It consists of a roulette, a small ball and a gambling table. The roulette rotates around the axis of rotation and is divided into 38 slender channels. The 36 channels are numbered 1 to 36 respectively, one is red and half is black. The other two green channels are marked 0 and 00 respectively. Players can buy a single number or a combination of numbers on the gambling table. When all players bet, the dealer will release a small ball, and finally stop in that number slot and the number is the final result. The odds of different numbers or combinations of numbers in the press are different."

Zhang Haotian touched the exquisite machine, remembered a question, and said, "These are all machine-controlled, can we cheat?"

Huang Peng nodded immediately and said, "Everything controlled by a machine can be cheated. Whether it is a dealer or a roulette, a program can be obtained for 100,000 or even tens of thousands of yuan. Cards and balls can be controlled by the dealer. However, when Brother Su was alive, he was very opposed to making those things that were left-handed and only letting the casino make money from 'pulling', and of course the profit would be much smaller. Some familiar regular customers liked us very much, so they generally placed a big bet."

Zhang Haotian said "Hmm" and said, "Brother Su is right. I think everyone understands the truth that cheating can be done in the casino, and those real gamblers will know after observing for a while. It is tantamount to fishing when they are done."

Huang Peng nodded again and said, "Most of the people who come here to gambling have certain identities. If they annoy these people and some people do something bad, it will be difficult to continue here. So although we know how to make more money, it has never been useful. However, the small casinos that Uncle Cai opens have more tricks. He has made a lot of money by opening small casinos in various counties and even townships over the years. Mr. Zhang, now Uncle Cai is dead, and Hu Qing admires you very much. If you want to make more money, you can go on this road."

Zhang Haotian was silent for a while, without answering, but then said, "Brother Huang, let's talk about this in the future. You should tell me other ways of playing."

Huang Peng agreed and began to explain the various ways of playing dragons, tigers, blackjacks and dices very carefully. These gambling rules are not complicated, and Zhang Haotian is very smart again. After listening to them, he basically understood.

Huang Peng took him forward again, but soon he arrived outside a row of red doors and pushed open one of them.

Zhang Haotian walked in and saw that it was decorated in a simple and tidy manner. There was only a gambling table in the middle, but there was no card issuer.

Huang Peng said: "Mr. Zhang, this is our VIP room, which is specially provided to gamblers who want to play cards alone, and provide dealers with cards. However, every time the casino has to draw a certain commission, so no matter who loses or wins, we will make sure to make a profit."

Seeing Zhang Haotian nodding, Huang Peng took him out again, and then talked about the other two secret roads leading outside. One of them did not lead outside, but entered a secret room from a wine cabinet, which could accommodate dozens of people, and was equipped with food, drinking, water, and even a TV at any time. Even if you stayed in it for a week, there would be no problem.

After looking at the entire casino and hearing some introductions from Huang Peng, Zhang Haotian and him still went out of the tea hall door, and then told him about the idea of ​​transforming the tea hall into a comprehensive storefront of Di Bar and Bar.

After hearing Zhang Haotian's words, Huang Peng agreed repeatedly, saying that the income of the tea hall was too poor and there was no need to do anything else, so that the door leading to the casino could be made more hidden. If something really happened, it would be much safer to start the secret door and let the gamblers get outside.

While discussing with Huang Peng how to transform the tea hall, his cell phone rang. As soon as he heard it connected, Wei Fugui's voice came: "Mr. Zhang, there is a man named Liu Jingguo here with me. He said he is your acquaintance and wants to meet you. What do you think?"

Hearing the three words "Liu Jingguo", Zhang Haotian was stunned. After learning that he was refused entry into the Sanlian Gang by Shang Yulin, Liu Jingguo asked him to stop acting. Later, he just asked him to pay back the 20,000 yuan undercover fee and never contacted him again. He didn't expect that he would be here directly today, and he probably wouldn't just come to get the 20,000 yuan.

Speculating about Liu Jingguo's purpose, Zhang Haotian said, "Fugui, take this person to my office immediately."

Wei Fugui agreed on the phone. Zhang Haotian put down the phone and told Huang Peng that he had something to go to the office. So he got up and walked through the tea hall, took the elevator to the fourth floor, followed the corridor to the outside of the office. After opening the door, he called Xia Ling'er and asked her to immediately get 20,000 yuan to deliver it to Ye Tiantang. Then he sat on the office chair inside and waited for Liu Jingguo.

After only a few minutes, he heard footsteps coming from outside. Soon, Wei Fugui brought a man in. The man was wearing a gray jacket, about fifty years old, with a thin and firm face, bright eyes, and a very military temperament. It was Liu Jingguo, who was in charge of the Sanlian Gang project.

Seeing Liu Jingguo, Zhang Haotian stood up and smiled at him. When Wei Fugui went out, he closed the door and sat on the sofa with Liu Jingguo, and then said, "Police Liu is here, I am so glorious."

Liu Jingguo stared at Zhang Haotian sitting next to him for a long time, then nodded slowly and said, "Zhang Haotian, it's not been a year yet, and you look much more mature again. The rapid change is really beyond my expectations."

Zhang Haotian smiled again and pointed and said, "I didn't leave any grass at that time, but now I have a hairy hair. Of course, this change is huge."

A smile flashed across Liu Jingguo's mouth and said, "Zhang Haotian, should I call you Mr. Zhang now, or should I call you Big Brother with my brother in City C."

Zhang Haotian did not answer directly, but said, "By the way, Officer Liu, I have already asked someone to send the 20,000 yuan undercover fee you gave me. Please wait a moment. This time I didn't join the Sanlian Gang and let you down your expectations for me. I'm really embarrassed."

Liu Jingguo looked at him and said, "Do you think I came for the 20,000 yuan?"

Of course, Zhang Haotian knew it was not, but he deliberately said: "Didn't you say that your case handling funds are very tight. I am not lucky enough to get the 20,000 yuan. Let's give it to other capable informants."

Liu Jingguo sighed slightly, then shook his head and said, "Zhang Haotian, when I first met you, I felt that you were a person that was difficult to control, but I never expected that I would be completely out of control with you from the beginning. I knew you were released from prison and needed money in urgent need of money. I didn't want you to return the 20,000 yuan immediately. When I almost forgot about you, you quickly emerged from City C. You did a good job in Yixingtang."

Zhang Haotian stared at him and said, "Police Liu, are you trying to investigate me?"

Liu Jingguo shook his head and said, "I am only responsible for the Sanlian Gang. What you do in City C is not within my authority. I will meet you today, just discuss something."

Zhang Haotian immediately laughed and said, "Officer Liu, don't you still want me to be an undercover agent, right?"

Liu Jingguo said seriously: "Zhang Haotian, I'm here this time to remind you."

Zhang Haotian said: "Oh, what are you reminding me?"

Liu Jingguodao: "In the future, I want to remind you of what kind of path you should take in the future."

Zhang Haotian smiled faintly and said, "I am at a loss for this matter. Officer Liu, please give me some advice."

Liu Jingguo said without hesitation: "I hope you can leave here and leave the people around you now. With your ability, you will not worry about not being able to find serious things elsewhere."

Zhang Haotian said: "Leave here? Why should I leave?"

Liu Jingguo looked at his eyes and said, "Because if you stay in this place and in this position, your path will become more and more distorted, and in the end you will truly go to the path of no return. I arranged it to come here. I don't want to have a wrong plan but raise a poisonous dragon for the society, which will eventually bring you a catastrophe."

Zhang Haotian did not avoid his sharp eyes, but smiled and said, "Officer Liu, do you think I will become a poisonous dragon?"

Liu Jingguo nodded and said, "It's only been eight months since you were released from prison, but you have become the most famous brother in City C. Zhang Jiacai and Dafei's death, don't tell me that it has nothing to do with you."

Speaking of this, he paused and said, "Zhang Haotian, if I remember correctly, you are only twenty-two years old this year. Other men have just finished college at your age, but you have become a hero in the world. A man like you, who is so young, will never be content with the status quo. You will become more and more terrifying, more and more vicious and experienced, and will be more and more harmful to society. By that time, I think I will regret that you have been here and come into contact with people from the underworld. Even if you retire, you will not be at ease."

Zhang Haotian stood up at this time, walked around the room for a while, and suddenly turned around and stared at Liu Jingguodao: "Officer Liu, I really want to ask you something?"

Liu Jingguo nodded and said, "Okay, you said."

Zhang Haotian said in a deep voice: "How are you doing in the case of the Sanlian Gang? Or are you starting to attack them?"

When Liu Jingguo heard this, his expression suddenly became depressed and shook his head and said, "The Sanlian Gang is very cunning. He is doing regular business on the outside. It is difficult for us to grasp the evidence of their crimes. In addition, someone inside the police has been corrupted by them. At present, these people can only be spared."

Hearing this, Zhang Haotian suddenly raised his head and laughed loudly.

When Liu Jingguo saw him laughing wildly, he immediately shouted in anger: "Zhang Haotian, do you think you are very proud?"

At this moment, Zhang Haotian suddenly stopped his smile and said loudly: "Yes, I am very proud, because I solved Yixingtang in the Thirteenth Hall of the Sanlian Gang, and did not let them do evil in City C, and did not hurt an innocent citizen. For a long time, City C would calm down. But what about you, until you set up a special task force, I think it has spent a lot of money on the country, and there are some undercover sacrifices. But the result is that what you told me is that 'can only let these people go to justice', Officer Liu, I want to ask you, when will you want these people to be "going out"?"

This speech made Liu Jingguo speechless for a while and didn't say anything for a long time.

Zhang Haotian did not stop, but said: "Also, I am now working in this night paradise, paying a lot of taxes for the country every month, and many of the employees are laid-off workers and migrant workers. Each of them can rely on their own and not burden the country."

Liu Jingguo immediately sneered and said, "Ye Tiantang is responsible for prostitution, you are still talking about it."

A cold light suddenly shot out in Zhang Haotian's eyes, staring at his face and said, "Officer Liu, you are lucky. You wear a police uniform and can receive a fixed salary every month. However, you have not experienced real poverty and don't know that humans can do anything to survive. I can tell you that half of the prostitutes you mentioned have to endure humiliation and sell their bodies because of life, while the other half, perhaps because they are lewd, perhaps because they want to pursue a better material life, but they did not steal or rob, they all had to laugh, they also risked their venereal disease, and they also had to pay various taxes. But some of you took the tax they paid and squandered them in the name of public expenses, and even had to collect some black money."

Speaking of this, he said: "I can tell you very responsibly that among the people who come to Yetian, public officials who take the money of ordinary people account for a large part, and they are more generous and generous than the bosses who do business. That is because the money of the businessmen is their own blood and sweat, and they will still think about it when spending it. Those public officials only need to set up a different name to issue an invoice, and let the leader or sign a name and reimburse it."

Liu Jingguo said a little embarrassedly: "Zhang Haotian, don't talk about public officials. Those corrupt elements are just a small group and cannot represent everything."

Zhang Haotian smiled and said, "Is it a small or a large one? I won't argue with you, because you know better than me. However, what I want to say is that there are people in the White Dao doing things in the underworld. Is there no one in the Underworld that can perform the duties of the White Dao?"

Liu Jingguo glared at him and said, "Zhang Haotian, who do you think you are and the savior?"

Zhang Haotian shook his head and said, "No, of course I am not a savior, but I just want to do what I want to do and stick to my minimum principles. As for whether it is white or black, I am too lazy to think too much."

Liu Jingguo was silent for a long time, suddenly sighed a long time, then stood up and said, "Since you have made up your mind, I don't want to say more. If you go too far, one day, the sword of law will slash at your head."

Zhang Haotian looked at Liu Jingguo and saw that there were some silver wires on his hair. He could come here to persuade him, which means that he is still a good policeman and has no malice towards him. He said, "Officer Liu, don't worry, no matter what path you and I go, some goals may not be consistent. I promise you that if the Sanlian Gang continues to do evil again and I have the strength, I will definitely eradicate this cancer. It is also considered to be grateful for your trust and love for me."

Liu Jingguo felt Zhang Haotian’s sincere tone and nodded slowly and said, “Zhang Haotian, I can’t stop you from walking on this path. And judging from your current situation, he is indeed not a disobedient person. I will give you an idiom.”

Speaking of this, he suddenly emphasized and said, "'There is also a way to steal."

Zhang Haotian smiled slightly and said, "I will remember these four words and hope I can do it."

Liu Jingguo nodded again and said, "That's good, you can grasp these four words yourself. I really don't want to see you in prison again."

After saying this, he did not shake hands with Zhang Haotian and was about to walk outside, but was stopped by Zhang Haotian and said with a smile: "Officer Liu, wait a moment. The 20,000 yuan I owe you is being sent by someone. You won't be generous to reward me."

Liu Jingguo almost forgot about this matter, so he had to sit down again, remain silent for a while, then focused his eyes on Zhang Haotian's handsome and righteous face and said, "Zhang Haotian, no matter what, you and I have finally gotten destined to you, and I don't want to see you completely sink. I will give you a few advice. Do you want to listen to it or not?"
