Chapter 109: Triggering the Plot Line "The Saint of Gambling"
As a famous gold cave on a par with Las Vegas, more than ninety percent of Aomen's output value is provided by the tertiary industry, and half of this comes from gambling and related industries.
Most people have the impression that Omen should be full of casinos, but that was in the afterlife.
In this day and age, there is only one casino in Omen, and that is the Lisboa.
Lisboa Casino is like a money printing machine, with a monthly profit of hundreds of millions of dollars, and even a monthly income of one billion yuan in peak season.
Every day, tens of thousands of gamblers from all over Asia gather here, dreaming of getting rich overnight, but in the end, there is only one person who gets rich, and that is Boss He of Lisboa.
This World Gambling King Contest is a customer attraction project launched by Boss He.
This trick is very effective, in the past few days, all the hotels and inns in Aomen are full, restaurants and restaurants are full, baths and hair salons sing every night, and even the beggars who ask for food are difficult to have a fat year.
Boss He can easily influence the economic development of the entire Aomen, plus those under him, it can even be said that he is the actual controller of the Aomen.
The Lisboa Casino and the Hotel Lisboa are one, with a gambling hall downstairs and guest rooms upstairs.
The hotel has a shopping mall, restaurants, banks, pawnshops, money changers, jewellery shops, betting centers, laundries and bathrooms, so it is said that if you have money, you can live here forever.
But it's just a wonderful fantasy, and most people spend their days and nights here, only to lose clean and leave in embarrassment.
Along the way, Fei Nan saw countless happy and satisfied gamblers, as well as countless gamblers who sighed for a long time and sighed like ashes.
Each of them can tell you what feng shui theories are involved in the design of this hotel, and each of them has a way to solve it.
They also know that everything here is to find a way to clean the last coin in the pockets of the guests, but they are willing to throw themselves into the net because they are convinced that they are the ones who can win.
Longhair is familiar with this place, after all, this is his old club.
Along the way, there were also familiar waiters and staff who greeted him and called Brother Ren.
The interior and exterior of the casino are resplendent in a gold-plated style, even the lampholders and door handles are gilded.
However, there are no windows inside and outside the casino, and the lighting is completely provided by crystal chandeliers that are not extinguished day and night, so that the casino is day and night.
There is a sign at the main entrance of the casino, which reads "Gambling is not guaranteed to win, light bets can be pleasant, come to play in leisure time, and stay entertaining" in Chinese, English and Portuguese.
But most of the gamblers who enter and leave the casino are in a hurry, ignoring it.
"Brother Ren, are you back?"
A few men gathered at the door to chat saw Long Hair and greeted him with a smile.
Nodding, Longhair asked, "Are they all there in Dafei?"
"Phineas, they're doing something. ”
After a brief chat, Long Fur said goodbye to them and led the two of Fernans into the gambling hall.
Longhair briefly introduced to Fernan, those people are all stackers in the casino, who specialize in attracting gamblers and encouraging gamblers to gamble in the casino.
They will help some powerful gamblers to provide free transportation, free accommodation, and help them find women to attract them to the casino to spend.
Although there is only one casino in Lisboa, there are nearly 10,000 stacking yards in the entire Aomen.
This is a group that should not be overlooked, and their overall income is even higher than that of casinos.
Forty percent of the income of the entire Lisboa is used to pay taxes, forty percent goes into the pocket of the stacking boy, and the remaining twenty percent is the income of Boss He.
These people are basically people from the local gray forces, and each gambling hall in Lisboa has corresponding talkers, and there are a group of stacked yards under the hands of these talkers.
It is precisely because of these profits that Boss He can dominate the entire gambling industry in Aomen.
Their main source of income comes from stacking chips, which is to provide turnover services to gamblers who cannot carry large sums of traps, that is, to sell a special chip called mud chips in their hands to gamblers as bets.
Gamblers place bets with these chips, and if they win, they get back cash chips that can be redeemed.
For this special chip, they will take a commission of three thousandths, that is, three for a thousand dollars, and this is their profit.
Although it doesn't sound like much, there are back-and-forth gambling sessions, and it is common for stackers to earn tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, or even millions of commissions a night.
Gamblers also know this, therefore, when the stacker gives chips, they will give a little more, if the gambler loses, they will also "generously" provide a little river crossing fee, so that they can come again next time.
However, Fernan and Longhair have no intention of buying clay yards from them, they are here to make money, not to make these stackers make money.
To participate in this King of Gamblers competition, you must have a deposit of $1 million as a bet before you can participate.
In the course of the game, the winner is also determined by winning the opponent's $1 million bet.
Longhair's money is all contributed to Fernan, and most of Fenan's money is contributed to the system, and both of them intend to win this million margin from the casino.
The interior of the gambling hall is more luxurious than the outside, and the space is more expansive.
There are many gamblers who smoke, but the special ventilation system keeps the air in the hall in good condition at all times.
All kinds of gamblers gather around the table, shouting, frowning and contemplating, and it is very lively.
The waitresses with the free drinks are all in good shape, and the dealers are all wearing uniform and look very professional.
Serena was still carrying her suitcase, and when she entered the gambling hall, she smiled at Fernan and said, "Honey, I have something to do, so I won't follow you yet!"
Fei Nan probably guessed what she was going to do, so he nodded, "Okay, I'll see you later." ”
Salena found a staff member with a suitcase, spoke a few words to him, and was led upstairs to the VIP room.
Fenan didn't bother with her, but walked with Longhair towards the chip exchange.
The exchange office is secluded and is designed to keep gamblers from finding it so that they can continue to return to the table.
However, Longhair is familiar with this place, and soon finds the exchange office, ready to exchange chips.
In front of the window of the exchange office stood two men, one fat and one thin, one old and one young.
The old man was obscene-looking, with a mustache, and was watching the exchanger in the window count the chips, with an excited face.
The younger one held a white towel and wiped it on his forehead and neck.
"Thank you!"
Holding the chip board, the old man turned around, hugged the young man, and whispered: "Ah Xing! Let me tell you, that Chen Song signed a contract with us, and he didn't give us a deposit, so he clearly wanted to take advantage of us, and it was not certain whether he could get the prize money or not, so we had to plan for ourselves as soon as possible." ”
The young man was embarrassed and said, "Uncle, you know I don't like to gamble." ”
"Stupid!"
The old man said, "Uncle is also in his forties, and he doesn't even have a wife, isn't it because he has no money?" You want to be with Qimeng, but you don't have a building or a car, how can you support her?"
"In the future, if you get married and have a baby, do you need money to buy milk powder? Do you need money to send your children to school? You have to think about the future!"
"Hey, hey!"
The young man was obviously caught in a beautiful fantasy, and he smirked: "It seems to make sense!"
None of them saw it, but a young man behind them was looking at them, smiling and muttering three words: "Zuo Songxing......"
