Chapter 271: Gold Coins!
"Let me in, I'm going to bet (Để tôi đi, tôi sẽđặt cược) ......"
One of the revolving doors in the Grand Sands Casino, because it was more convenient to take the VIP channel, Wei Yuyun took He Zilong to the passage. But before the VIP passage goes, there are also several general passages.
And one of the revolving door passages is one of the general passages, and I saw a short man wearing a green hat pushing out for the staff. But it was not forcibly pushed, but half pushed and half sent out.
The man obviously didn't want to leave the casino, and he wanted to go in, but from his words, it was clear that he hadn't come out for days and nights. There was not a penny on him for a long time, and he was still making a lot of noise in the casino. So the staff invited him out!
"What kind of man is this, it's obviously unlucky to come to the casino with a green hat, no wonder you lose money. Also, what kind of bird language is this talking about...... How do you feel a little familiar and a little weird!" He Zilong asked Wei Yuyun with a funny smile, pointing to the man's green hat.
"If I say he's Vietnamese, wouldn't you feel why he's a cuckold now......" Wei Yuyun replied with a shrug of his shoulders.
"It's Vietnamese, no wonder the language is familiar and weird, if it's Vietnamese, then it's not strange to be a cuckold...... However, it is still unlucky. Not every monkey is a monkey brother, and the luck of fakes is always not good, is it?" He Zilong shrugged and grinned.
The meaning of "green hat" in China is that if one of the spouses cheats, the other party is called wearing a "green hat". That's a bad idea!
If a Chinese man lets others know that he has been cuckolded, it will be spread everywhere. It was a great shame, equivalent to killing his father's hatred, and it was not shared with heaven. If you don't fight with people, and then go home and don't finish with your wife, you basically won't calm down.
But in Vietnam, it's definitely different. Walking through the streets and alleys of Vietnam, you will find that the green hat must occupy a prominent position, and in both urban and rural areas, all men wear a green hat.
There is a green hat on his head, which is almost a sign of a Vietnamese man. A Vietnamese man who does not cuckold is not a good Vietnamese man!
People don't feel unlucky at all, after all, the customs are different.
It's like 666 represents 66 Dashun in China, or praise you. But in the Western world, you say 666, and that means the devil. In another place, the same thing means something completely different. This is often seen in countries around the world!
Just like the green hat in Vietnam, it symbolizes that the owner of the hat is a hero who loves the party and the country, and it is said that the darker the hat, the higher the status or wealth of the owner of the hat.
The reason for this is related to the war years in Vietnam, as well as the frequent wars and forest game battles.
Vietnam has always been a country of constant war, and most Vietnamese men at that time had the experience of being soldiers, and fighting wars was indispensable for cuckolds. Men who serve in the army wear green hats and can hide themselves well!
After all, fighting from the forest is the main battlefield of the Vietnamese.
Every Vietnamese person is proud and proud to have been cuckolded, and of course, respecting other people's customs is one thing. But if He Zilong wants to cuckold, he won't want to kill him.

The Vietnamese man made a fuss for a while, perhaps perhaps finally realizing that it was impossible to enter the casino again, or perhaps he knew that he had no money and could not get in. Jing Ran thought for a moment, gritted his teeth and walked to a sofa on the side, where a group of men in suits and leather shoes were there. looked at the Vietnamese man with a smile on his face, as if he had been waiting for him for a long time!
After the Vietnamese man passed, he took out his passport, and then the group of men in suits and leather shoes took pictures of him. After changing hands, he took out tens of thousands of Singapore currency from his suitcase and handed them to the Vietnamese man.
Vietnamese man's eyes lit up when he saw tens of thousands of dollars. Almost drooling, he turned around and rushed into the casino again, this time the casino security guards did not stop him, and sure enough, he gave way when he saw the money.
"If you put your passport and take a photo, you can exchange it for tens of thousands of Singapore dollars, which is equivalent to hundreds of thousands of yuan. There will be no free dinner in this world, those men in suits and leather shoes are lending usury, right......?" He Zilong frowned and asked Wei Yuyun.
"It's not a loan shark, there will be a cap on the interest. In full accordance with the regulations of the bank and the law, the annualized interest rate will not exceed 36%, which is ......legal," Wei Yuyun said.
"Hehe, the annualized rate is 36%, which is completely legal? There is no handling fee, no ...... of cutting interest? Do you think I will believe it? Everyone is reborn, there are so many routine loans in later generations, all of them say that they are legal, and the interest is also about 36%, why are so many more than the law when you calculate it carefully?" He Zilong just sneered.
Wei Yuyun sighed: "Okay, you won." It is true that there is a beheading interest and a handling fee, but one is willing to fight, the other is willing to suffer, and the two are willing. In addition, there will be no physical violence to collect, just detain the passport, and most of them will honestly repay the money......"
Cutting interest refers to the loan shark or underground bank, when lending to the borrower, a part of the money is deducted from the principal, and this part of the money is called cutting interest.
For example, the lender lends 100,000 yuan to the borrower, but directly deducts the interest of 20,000 yuan when paying the borrower and gives the borrower 80,000 yuan, and the borrower gives the borrower the situation that the borrower has issued an IOU of 100,000 yuan, that is, the amount recorded in the IOU is greater than the actual amount borrowed.
That is, you borrow 100,000 yuan, but the actual amount is only 80,000 yuan, but when you repay the money, the interest is still calculated as 100,000 yuan.
In Hong Kong, as well as in many countries in later generations, although the regulations have repeatedly banned it, the packaged "cut off interest" still exists in the market.
Many "cash loans" and online lending platforms only indicate the daily interest rate, and hide information such as overdue fines and handling fees in the collapsed service agreement. Opaque and costly borrowing conditions can easily trap borrowers in debt traps.
Before his rebirth, He Zilong had a friend who borrowed 30,000 yuan through an online loan platform App, with a loan term of three years, to be repaid in 36 installments, and 1,373.94 yuan should be repaid in each installment, of which 5,959 yuan was the service fee deducted by the platform. According to the compound interest formula, the comprehensive annualized interest rate of the platform is far more than 36%!

"Actually, you don't have to pity these Vietnamese men, they are so gambling. The income of working in Singapore is high, so there are many men from nearby countries who come to work here. Chinese men like to save money to go home, send it back on time, and only keep some living expenses. But Vietnamese men rarely send money home, basically they eat up, use up, drink up, gamble up, and the family doesn't say much about them......" Wei Yuyun saw that He Zilong seemed uncomfortable, and quickly explained.
"I know this, I don't have an opinion, don't worry......" He Zilong took a deep breath and didn't say anything more.
Many Vietnamese men are giant babies, and almost all women work and work in Vietnam, and men are more at home. The main reason for this is that there are more women than men, but of course there are other reasons.
