Chapter 219 The Secret of the Casino
Huang Guangsheng said in the back: "This is the guest room in the past, but since my grandfather passed away and my grandmother married into the city, my second uncle was lazy and could not clean up the house, so he had no relatives willing to come. The room has been abandoned. Next to it is the room where my grandmother lived. I was scolded by my parents in the past and often came to live in anger. It's better to clean it. Boss, just sleep in that room."
Zhang Haotian shook his head, turned around and glanced at Wang Bin and others who were frowning and covering their noses and said, "We won't go anywhere this afternoon, we will help clean up here, and then go to the street to buy some pillows and bedding."
Wang Bin, Wu Xiaolong, Chen Qiang, and Huang Guangsheng were the diligent ones, but they knew that it would be a very uncomfortable thing to live here for a while and not to make the courtyard more decent. When they heard Zhang Haotian's words, they all agreed in unison.
The five of them started together. After a busy afternoon, Lu Ajia's yard really changed. The ground was clean and there was no sign of Zhixiao garbage. Zhang Haotian bought new things like pillows in the supermarket in front. He even bought several bottles of air freshener, and sprayed them all in the room and yard.
Seeing all this, Lu Ajia laughed happily. Who doesn’t want to have a clean environment? It would be a beautiful thing if you don’t have to do things and spend money by yourself.
In the evening, I went to a restaurant on the street to have a meal. Lu Ajia heard that Zhang Haotian was treating him, so he was not very polite. He ordered a large table of good dishes and wine. Naturally, Zhang Haotian would not care about him, but instead kept celebrating his wine.
Seeing that Zhang Haotian looked cool but was kind, Lu Ajia immediately became a lot more intimate with him. After drinking a few glasses of wine with him, he patted his shoulder and said, "Alang, I know you are their leader, but he is quite sensible, unlike ordinary young and dandy boys, I like it. I have no objection to stay here, but be careful, don't cause trouble, otherwise it will be very troublesome."
Zhang Haotian's heart moved and said, "Oh, second uncle, what's the trouble? Can you tell us so that we won't accidentally bump into it."
Huang Guangsheng also quickly said, "Yes, second uncle, you must say carefully. If something happens to me with you, will my grandmother and my mother be angry with you."
Lu Ajia knocked on his head and said, "You kid, you love to cause trouble for me. Listen carefully. Our Jinzi Village used to be the territory of the Wanhong Gang, but a large-scale gang fought a lot a while ago. The people of the Wanhong Gang were defeated. What kind of Sanlian Gang are coming now? They are all fierce and terrifying. If anyone doesn't accept it, they will cut it with a knife. There are already several bosses who have a good relationship with the Wanhong Gang in the past and are not convinced. As a result, two were injured and three were missing. They are very fierce."
Speaking of this, he said again: "But as long as you don't provoke them, there's nothing wrong."
Huang Guangsheng quickly said, "Second uncle, how many people are here in the Sanlian Gang?"
Lu Ajia said: "There are always hundreds. Once this person is more than the time when Wanhong Gang is here, the bosses dare not speak out."
Zhang Haotian immediately said: "How did the police deal with this matter?"
Lu Ajia said: "When the Wanhong Gang and the Sanlian Gang started the film, the police often came. However, as soon as they left, the two gangs started fighting. The police had no choice but to set up a security brigade in the village, but there were only 30 people in it. It was okay to deal with ordinary hooligans, but if you encounter these big gangs in the world, you can only be regarded as a turtle. Besides, the security brigade is called Ruan Ming, nicknamed "Ruan Liangshou", which means that he holds the money from Baidao in one hand and the money from the underworld in the other. As long as you give money, whether it is the Wanhong Gang showing off or the Sanlian Gang showing off his might."
Zhang Haotian nodded, then smiled and said, "Second uncle, your news is very informative. Come and I'll give you a cup. Thank you for your reminder."
Lu Ajia drank with him and smiled proudly, "Of course, you go out and ask, your second uncle was also a little famous in this area back then. Those boys in the village don't give me some shame, and you have to tell me what you have to do. I'll remind you. Otherwise, if you are full of energy, you may cause trouble and be hacked to death for no reason."
As he spoke and drank, it was already nine o'clock in the evening. Zhang Haotian wanted to see the situation in Jinzi Village at night and took everyone out of the restaurant.
The streets in Jinzi Village are very lively at night, brightly lit everywhere. There are more than a dozen food stalls on the street, hundreds of seats, and they are basically full of people. Groups of men and women are drinking and playing, laughing and laughing from time to time. Naturally, the workers in various factories have come out. Among the dense heads, it is impossible to tell whether there are people from the Sanlian Gang inside.
Walking through this commercial street, it is the red light district. When you walk along the way, Zhang Haotian is also eye-opening.
It turns out that there is almost no other business on this street. There are shampoo shops with dark red lights on both sides of the street. Outside each shampoo shop, there are women wearing heavy makeup and exposed clothes standing unscrupulously calling passers-by, as if they are selling vegetables in a vegetable market. From time to time, men in groups of three or three are pulled into the shop.
Of course, Zhang Haotian and other men would become the targets of these shampooing girls to attract business. Before they could reach a hundred meters, more than a dozen ladies had already taken the initiative to run up to pull them up. Chen Qiang, Huang Guangsheng and others were eager to try, but when they saw that Zhang Haotian did not express their opinions, they had to refuse.
Although Lu Ajia is not young, he is very familiar with these ladies and waves from time to time, as if the emperor has entered his harem.
After walking for a while, Lu Ajia walked to Zhang Haotian and whispered: "Alang, do you want to go and have fun? It's very cheap. It's eighty fast food and two hundred overnight."
Seeing that Zhang Haotian didn't say anything, he said again: "Do you think it's too low-level? It doesn't matter. There are several big venues here, and the ladies inside have been selected. They all look like flowers and jade, but the price is higher."
Zhang Haotian understood that he wanted to play, and then took the ride to get the money. He laughed in his heart and said, "Aren't you afraid that Guangsheng will be inconvenient?"
Lu Ajia glared and said, "What's the inconvenience? Guangsheng, a bastard, has grown up. He should also let him know the taste of a woman, so that he will not be able to marry a wife in the future and will never dream of what the things a woman looks like."
Listening to Lu Ajia's words, Zhang Haotian, Wang Bin and others burst into laughter, and Chen Qiang even patted Huang Guangsheng and said generously: "Big Mouth, your second uncle is worried that your generation will not be able to find a wife to be an old virgin, so he won't choose a woman to be a broken place."
Huang Guangsheng and his second uncle were embarrassed to face such a scene together, so they touched their heads and couldn't speak.
There is no problem in asking this second uncle to enjoy the taste of the gentle village, but Zhang Haotian wanted to see the full view of the night in Jinzi Village earlier, so he said, "Second uncle, let's go to another street to see it, come over later. In short, you can enjoy whatever you want tonight. I'll treat you, how about it?"
Lu Ajia listened to his words and smiled happily, and pointed his fingers: "Alang, you are so handsome, so proud. This is what the boss looks like. Our Guangsheng follows you. Don't worry, you can't lose him."
Speaking of this, he leaned into Zhang Haotian's ear and whispered: "You are loyal enough, and I am loyal enough. Alang, I know you must have caused trouble somewhere and ran away from me. You can hide for as long as you want. I will never urge you to leave."
Zhang Haotian knew that Lu Ajia had long seen that he was just a mess on the road, so he smiled slightly and said, "Second uncle, Guangsheng follows me on this path, don't you worry about him?"
Lu Ajia's face suddenly showed a hint of gloom, and he shook his head and said, "What's the worry? I was worried when I heard that Guangsheng was working as a moving worker in the company in the past. What's the future? Guangsheng is a kind-hearted child. If I don't have any idea of coaxing girls, maybe I will really not be able to marry a wife for the rest of my life. If I become famous as a young and dandy, it would be much better than being a moving person. But if I want to do it, I will be happy to be the most powerful group of people."
Although Lu Ajia's words were a bit of a bad "child", Huang Guangsheng was excited when he heard this, and he clenched his fists and said, "Second uncle, don't worry, I will definitely not let you down. Brother Wolf will definitely make us the most powerful group."
Huang Guangsheng has always been hesitant about coming to Jinzi Village to deal with the Sanlian Gang. His fighting spirit is worse than that of Wang Bin and Wu Xiaolong. Unexpectedly, Lu Ajia would speak to ignite his ambition. Looking at Chen Qiang's face, he seemed to have realized something. Zhang Haotian was a little grateful to the old man.
After a while, I walked out of this red light district and came to another street. The shops on both sides of this street were very bright. From time to time, you could hear the sound of mahjong shuffling and the music of some gambling consoles.
Zhang Haotian said, "Second uncle, where do you usually gamble money?"
Lu Ajia said: "In the past, I usually played mahjong or long cards, but now it's not interesting. Alang, I'll take you to a place, it's fun and exciting."
While talking, he took Zhang Haotian and others to the other end of the street.
Just as he was about to come to an end, he asked Zhang Haotian and others to follow him through an alley, then to an outside of a courtyard gate, and knocked on the iron gate.
With his knock on the door, a small hole was opened first, revealing a person's eyes, and then a small door was opened, revealing a young man wearing a black shirt and a buzz cut.
The young man did not let the few people go in immediately, but looked at Zhang Haotian and the other two for a while before saying, "Old Lu, who are these?"
Lu Ajia quickly pointed at Huang Guangsheng and said, "This is my nephew and grandson. He brought a few friends to my place to play. There is nothing to do at night, so I will let them come over and see it."
The young man didn't say anything, and suddenly whistled. After a while, three young men dressed in young and dandy suddenly came out of the door.
The man who opened the door said, "Old Lu, you know the rules, tell them."
Lu Ajia hurriedly said to Zhang Haotian and others: "There is a regulation here that you cannot bring weapons when you enter, especially strangers from outside. You must search before you can enter."
Zhang Haotian and others came out and didn't take the guy, so they raised their hands and asked the people to search.
The three men came out to check carefully for a while, then nodded to the buzz-headed man who opened the door. The buzz-headed man waved his hand and said, "Come in."
Lu Ajia agreed and walked in with Zhang Haotian and the other two.
When I entered the yard, I saw that the yard was not big, only three rooms, and it was quiet and I couldn’t see any “fun” places.
While in a daze, Lu Ajia asked them to follow him into a room in the middle. Two young men stood in the room. When they saw Lu Ajia, they nodded to him, then pushed a cabinet forward, and the cabinet was moved to one side, revealing a staircase, and there was a shiny light coming out below.
Lu Ajia said, "Come with me." He took the lead in walking down the stairs, and Zhang Haotian and others followed closely.
Just halfway down the stairs, Zhang Haotian could see the scene inside clearly.
Here, it turned out to be an underground casino with an area of at least six or seven hundred square meters, with gambling tools such as "Baccarat", "Black and Blackjack" everywhere. There are also dice-shaking gambling sizes or playing Paijiu. At least hundreds of people were holding their bets inside, and there were a lot of scenes.
Zhang Haotian looked at it and saw that the opening of the gate here was in the direction where they came through the alley. It seemed that it was an underground shopping mall, but the main entrance was closed and the entrance was opened. Unfamiliar people would never know that there was a big casino here.
Lu Ajia whispered: "This underground casino has only been open for a short time, but there are many types of gambling, and you can get whatever you want, so everyone likes to come here to play."
When Zhang Haotian heard Lu Ajia say this, he suddenly moved his heart. He really found out that he could not find anything and did not take any effort. If such a large casino dared to open here, it was probably the Sanlian Gang who was run by himself, and the Sanlian Gang's headquarters in Jinzi Village was naturally located here.
At this time, he remembered what Jie Jiafa, the uncle of the Wanhong Gang, said to him that the person who attacked Jinzi Village was a fragrant master of the Sanlian Gang, named Xiang Yun, nicknamed Hei Wuchang, and was a cruel and ruthless person who killed people without blinking. I don’t know if this person stayed here to preside over the affairs, and now he is in this casino.
He immediately asked Lu Ajia, "Second uncle, do you know who the person in charge of this casino is? Have you ever seen him?"
Lu Ajia immediately shook his head and said, "No, the person in charge here has never appeared before, I don't know who it is."
Zhang Haotian nodded, looked at the situation in the casino, and said, "What do you usually play?"
Lu Ajia said: "I am old and my mind is not smart. The things here are too complicated. I only play simple things."
When Huang Guangsheng saw such a big casino, he looked eager to try and said, "What's the simple thing? Second uncle, teach me."
Lu Ajia knocked on his head, "Stupid, of course the easiest thing is Mark Six. You won't even know this."
Huang Guangsheng said: "Isn't Mark Six from Hong Kong? You have to win six numbers and one special number to win the grand prize. It's not interesting."
Zhang Haotian listened next to him, but he understood in his heart that the Mark Six Lottery Lu was not gambling in the usual sense, but an underground Mark Six Lottery. This kind of underground Mark Six Lottery only bets on the special codes issued by the current Mark Six Lottery in Hong Kong. The gambler returned cash at a rate of 40. The huge temptation of forty times often made the gambler obsessed with the mysterious special code and crazy gambling like he was brainwashed. The money of the gambler continued to flow into the banker's pocket. The casinos in C City where he was in, the big and small casinos in charge of Hu Qing had this thing, and it was also the main source of wealth for the casinos.
Sure enough, I heard Lu Ajia say, "The thing like that in Hong Kong is not exciting. We can just buy a number like this. Last week, a merchant from other places came to buy No. 7, which cost 100,000 yuan. He won. He got 4 million and left without even entering the goods. Tsk, that luck is really good. Maybe I will win this issue."
Listening to Lu Ajia's envious tone, Zhang Haotian could only shake his head secretly. When chatting with Hu Qing, he had already known the mystery of the underground Mark Six lottery.
Underground Mark Six Lottery absolutely requires dealers to operate, so every once in a while, lottery players will hear news that someone has won the jackpot and made a fortune, but it is possible that someone has won the prize, but that probability is very low. Therefore, many of them are rumors made by dealers, and some even secretly hire people familiar with local people to be a matchmaker, saying that they have won a lot of money, but they will lose all of them soon. Outsiders will sigh that if they win so much money, they will definitely not bet anymore, but they do not know that this is simply a trick of dealers and employees joining together to deceive people.
The most ridiculous thing is the legend of "Aerial Baby". Among the underground lottery players, there is a saying that the Hong Kong lottery is a lottery prize and it is decided, and the production unit of "Aerial Baby" is related to the Hong Kong lottery company, so the "special code" hidden in the film is full of "mysteries". Therefore, "Aerial Baby" has become a wealth book in the minds of many lottery players. Repeated speculations on its sentences and plots will even make people come out.
There is schizophrenia. For example, if a child is taking a bath in "Aerial Baby", he still says "wash it with soap". Coders will think that soap is called "foreign soap" among the older generation, which means buying "sheep". This sheep is dealing with a certain number, so they will spend a lot of money to bet, and in the end they will get nothing, but they do not think that the legend is fake, and they blame themselves for not guessing the hints of it.
He also works in a casino, so of course he would not tell these inside stories. When he saw Lu Ajia heading towards a counter on the right, he knew that he was going to bet, so he followed him.
When I arrived at the counter, I saw a girl wearing a uniform, fair-skinned and pretty face inside receiving bets. Lu Ajia lay on the counter and stretched out four fingers and said, "Azhen, buy me another 400 yuan and six, I don't believe it won't come out."
Azhen should be from Jinzi Village. When she saw Lu Ajia, she agreed, but did not immediately make an order. Instead, she said with some concern: "Uncle Ajia, you already owe several thousand yuan to the casino, and you still have to place a bet."
Lu Ajia immediately said: "Go, of course, as long as I get a bet once, I will pay back all the money. I had a good dream last night. This time I will definitely win, I will definitely win."
When Azhen heard him say this, she didn't say much, but asked him to sign a note, press a handprint, and give it to him.
Seeing that Lu Ajia bought it, Huang Guangsheng and Chen Qiang also bought it for 200 yuan each to play. Wang Bin and Wu Xiaolong were not interested in it.
Seeing Lu Ajia put the number plate in his arms with confidence, Zhang Haotian smiled and patted his shoulder and said, "Second uncle, you owe several thousand yuan. Have you ever received it from the casino?"
Lu Ajia shook his head and pointed to the many gamblers in the casino and said, "Don't talk about me, as long as I am from the village, I owe more money to the casino, and I have tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of dollars. No one is here to urge for money. This boss is really good."
When Zhang Haotian heard it, he just sneered. Lu Ajia and others were too naive. The casino was too open for a while and what needed was popularity. Of course, the more people came to gamble, the better. As the saying goes, "I don't worry about big-bellied customers when opening a store." With the strength and means of the Sanlian Gang, are you still afraid that who will owe the debt and not pay it back? Now that the debt is not raising the debt, it is to make Lu Ajia and others fall deeper and deeper. Once the money is owed too much, you can only borrow usury and then hope to pay it back by gambling. So it often goes on and cannot extricate yourself, and even to the point where you lose all your money and your family is destroyed.
