Chapter 143: A slap in the face

"Lu Wei, do you know the location of the wonton shop that Han Laosi mentioned?"

"I know, but I haven't been there." Lu Wei nodded.

"Let's go and find him." Chen Miao thought for a while and ordered, "Anyway, I'm so tired, so go to the wonton shop to have a look?"

"Third brother, what if the fourth brother comes back and misses us?"

"We are not afraid of missing out," Chen Miao said, "Let's go, can we two be foolishly waiting for him here?"

"Oh..." Lu Wei quickly agreed.

"Secretary Chen, are you still going out so late?" The guard asked when he passed by the second door.

"I'm hungry, go out for some midnight snack."

"Do you want to leave a door for you?"

"Yeah, thank you."

When Chen Miao and Lu Wei came out, there were basically no pedestrians on the road. They were empty and black, which made people feel scared.

"Let's go."

There are no rickshaws at this point, so Chen Miao and Lu Wei can only walk on two feet. However, the place Lu Wei mentioned is not very far away strictly.

I made an appointment to leave for twenty minutes.

Finally, I saw a deep alley with a lamp in front of the door, and there was still people walking around at the door. It was so late and it was open to business. It was rare.

When Chen Miao and Lu Wei walked in, they found that there were still guests sitting in groups of three or three, but they could guess at their outfits.

Ordinary people have already rested and slept at home here, and those who still don’t sleep here are apart from gangsters and gangsters, there are only one kind of people, some people’s lackeys.

There are many dance halls and gambling platforms nearby. They danced for one night and gambled for money all night. At this time, they were inevitably hungry. They found someone to give me some errands and bought a bowl of wontons to send them. Many people make a living in the casino and make money for hard errands.

"Customer, what to eat? The restaurant has noodles and wontons. Do you choose the same one and serve some side dishes?" The boss is not very old, has a fat head and big ears, and a greasy face.

Don’t underestimate such a wonton shop. Apart from the good taste and lack of connection or ability, it’s really impossible to open. The business he does is not ordinary people.

"Boss, ask you for someone?"

"Customer, I only do business here and don't sell news." The boss's smile slightly closed.

"Boss, you misunderstood. One of my subordinates said that they came to you to buy me midnight snacks, but I waited for a long time and he didn't come back, so I came over and asked, would you see if you saw him?" Chen Miao explained.

"You are asking this, no problem. As long as I bought wontons from me, I will remember it." The boss's face relaxed.

"He is a little shorter than my subordinate, and he is thinner. He likes to put his hands in his pockets when walking..." Chen Miao roughly described the image of Han Laosi.

"Oh, the guest is talking about Han Laosi, he, my regular visitor here, but I didn't see him tonight." The boss said Han Laosi's name at once.

"He didn't come tonight?"

"Well, I've never left since six o'clock. If he had been here, how could I not know?" said the boss.

"Thank you, boss, then give us two bowls of vegetable, meat wontons." Chen Miao nodded and ordered, Han Laosi had never been here.

Where did this kid go?

Have you forgotten the time when you go to the gambling station to gamble, or have you gone there to play?

"Lu Wei, I ate wontons later. Take me to the gambling table and dance hall that Han Laosi often goes to to find out." Chen Miao said to Lu Wei.

"Yes, third brother." Lu Wei would not ask why. He always did whatever Chen Miao told him to do. In terms of obedience and loyalty, Lu Wei was a few streets ahead of Han Laosi.

"Please use the vegetables, meat and wontons from the two guests."

"Thank you." Chen Miao nodded, and after taking a bite, he praised, "Boss, your wontons are good, no wonder the business is so good."

"This is my ancestral craft. I am the only one who rolls the dough to the stuffing. The guest likes to eat it. I often come here in the future to ensure that the taste remains unchanged." The boss responded with a smile.

"Well, it's good, it's good. I really have to come here often in the future." Chen Miao laughed. After a busy night, his belly was already hungry. Even if Han Laosi didn't say that he would go out to buy him a midnight snack, he would have to find something to put his stomach on his stomach when he went back to sleep.

However, there is nothing delicious at home, so I guess it would be amazing to cook noodles and add an egg.

Chen Miao and Lu Wei finished eating the wontons and paid the money. When they saw that it was open at 11 o'clock, Han Laosi had not appeared yet. They could only ask Lu Wei to take him to the place where Han Laosi might go, looking for it as he had told him.

That night, why did a living person disappear?

Lisheng Gambling Platform.

"Third brother, I have heard from the fourth brother that he came the most times, won more and lost more. This business in western Shanghai is particularly good. I heard that it is Boss Ji's business behind it?" Lu Wei explained. Of course Chen Miao knew, was he the intelligence editor of the Military Control Commission Shanghai District who was a good meal?

He didn't know the background of underground forces such as Shanghai, gambling stalls, romantic places and tobacco shops, but he put some effort into it.

Especially the gambling table, he was on the blacklist of many gambling tables.

"Oh, third brother, why is it you..." I ran into someone and looked up and was about to curse someone. When I looked up, I saw Chen Miao's face and instantly swallowed the swear words that ended up in my mouth, and changed to a sad expression.

"Ma Liu, the third brother comes here to play for a few games. Wouldn't you not welcome me?"

"Welcome, welcome, how can we not welcome..." Ma Liu was about to cry. What the casinos fear most is not those with clever gambling skills. No matter how clever gambling skills are, there are flaws. Only those with good gambling luck are given by God, and there is no solution!

Chen Miao is such an unexpectedly good person with good luck in gambling.

He doesn't easily do anything to sweep the market. After all, those who open the gambling table are also seeking money. If you cut off your wealth, you will form a great hatred of life and death.

Therefore, even if he comes to the gambling platform to play for a few games, he will be able to do whatever he wants and stop when he sees it.

"I just bought a house and spent 8,000 oceans to renovate it. It's inevitable that I have to go up ten thousand oceans..."

"Brother Third, please spare me." Ma Liu was so scared that he knelt down directly.

Although the gambling platform makes money, it would be great to earn hundreds or thousands of oceans a day. It would also be considered as manual labor and filial piety to all kinds of gods. It would be good if it was half of it in your pocket.

"Ma Liu, the third brother won't cheat you, and he will bring you two thousand oceans to the next day. From now on, he will be filial to 500 oceans every month. Third brother guarantees that no one will come to harass you in the future?" Chen Miao said.

Ma Liu was shocked, "Third Brother, are you serious?"

"Do you think I'll joke with you?"

"It's said on the road that you have entered No. 76, you are the one who is... "

"Traitor, do you need me to tell you?" Chen Miao smiled, "That's right, I'm doing things on the 76th now. Since you know everything, you should know the weight of my words. If others know that the person behind you is me, you will have less trouble. At least it will be fine to pay half of the money for the 76th every month."

"But Captain Wu's commission is also quite a bit?"

"Wu Yunfu's side doesn't need to give it to you next month. If he asks, he will say you are my person and you have my shares behind your gambling table, and he will naturally understand." Chen Miao said.

"That's good. The third brother is willing to cover Ma Liu, so Ma Liu is naturally willing." Ma Liu was overjoyed. Wu Yunfu was too greedy. Not only did he have to take a commission, but he also wanted shares. He called the No. 76 membership and paid him your money. If he didn't pay the money on the gambling platform like him, he would not be able to survive in West Shanghai.

He said that he was backing Ji Yunqing on the betting table, so he was just borrowing his name and he had to pay for it. But now Ji Yunqing himself is bored, so why should he use to cover them?

Ma Liu was also having a headache. Who should I ask for money to pay? Wu Yunfu didn't dare to force him too much for Ji Yunqing's sake. What would happen to Lao Ji's death?

As long as Wu Yunfu gets involved, he will sooner or later swallow this gambling table. Such a person is not only insatiable, but also cruel and shameless.

"Ma Liu, how many people can trust a small gambling platform like you?" Chen Miao asked. As soon as Old Ji died, he was really scattered. He was probably busy expanding his territory and conquering the city. Lin Shiqun and Wu Yunfu were probably taking action long ago.

Chen Miao felt that if he didn't get into this, he would be a little sorry for the skin of the "76" that he finally put on.

Although the money of these people was not from the right way, it was given to Lin Shiqun and Wu Yunfu, which was of no use except to increase their personal wealth, allowing them to spend money, live a life of drunkenness, and die of despair.

If this money falls into his hands, it will be of great use.

He may not be able to compete with Wu Yunfu alone, but he can win over Tang Keming, Four Yewen and even Ling Zhijiang, so he will have the strength to compete with Wu Yunfu.

If you use money to make money, there will be a lot of room for operation.

"That's a lot, but there are fewer people who can trust it." Ma Liu was also a smart person and immediately understood what Chen Miao meant.

"Let me find some time and make an appointment, and I will invite them to dinner. Let's discuss that Mr. Ji has left and we can live a life in the future." Chen Miao said.

"Okay, everything is up to the third brother's arrangement, but Ma Liu will still be the one who makes this meal." Ma Liu hurriedly agreed.

"Well, I've made arrangements and I'll go to the 76th to find me." Chen Miao said, "I'll ask you if Han Laosi came to your place tonight?"

"Han Laosi, I didn't see it, but I can ask you for helping you, Brother San, as long as he has come, my friend here will definitely see it." Ma Liudao.

“Hard work.”

To be honest, Chen Miao is really not interested in gambling, but his luck in gambling is particularly good, which is something that makes him puzzled.

There is no way to explain something like luck. Although he is a staunch atheist, he really can't find a reasonable explanation for this matter.

Ma Liu came back soon, and the news brought to Chen Miao was that Han Laosi did not come to the Lisheng gambling platform today.

This is strange. Even if Han Laosi didn't get in touch with the adjustment, he wouldn't have been there for so long and there was no news. Could it be that something unexpected happened?

On No. 76, no one should have the courage to attack Han Laosi, and it is hard to say about the people outside, especially the Military Control Commission. If they failed to kill themselves last time, they might not have plans. If they can't attack themselves, it is not impossible to attack the people around them.
