Chapter 373: Reveal your hole cards
After several days of in-depth investigation, Lu Jie sent people to basically find out the situation of the casino in the Diamond Mansion.
The casino is located on the 29th and 30th floors of the hotel, which are two full floors. But there is also a difference between the two floors, the twenty-ninth floor is an ordinary casino, whether you play or not, if you want to enter, you have to buy a ticket for a thousand yuan. The 30th floor is the VIP lounge with a bigger stake, and the ticket price is 10,000. The starting bet on the 29th floor is 200, while the starting bet on the 30th floor is 5,000. There is a security guard at the entrance to the 30th floor, and you can't go up without buying a ticket.
Outsiders call it a casino, while insiders call it an "entertainment bar", gambling is not called gambling, it is called "game", and it is also marked at the entrance: it is just a game, not gambling.
The casino has baccarat, blackjack, and Mediterranean poker, and it can indeed be called a miniature version of a Macau casino.
Tickets can be exchanged for chips after entering, and the largest chip is 500,000. The comparison between money and chips is not one-to-one, but one-to-ten, that is, one dollar for ten chips, and the largest 500,000 chips are equivalent to 50,000 dollars.
At the entrance of the entertainment bar, it is clearly written on the billboard that the chips used in the game are called game currency, which cannot be exchanged for money, but can be exchanged for points at a rate of ten to one. That is to say, a ticket of 1,000 yuan can be exchanged for 10,000 chips, and 10,000 chips can be exchanged for 1,000 points. Points can be used for any cash equivalent purchases and purchases at the hotel.
There are two shops not far from the entertainment bar, one sells agarwood, and the other sells Yunhai Huanghuali handicrafts, both of which are high-end products.
There are forty or fifty thousand agarwood, hundreds of thousands and millions of huanghuali, and these are mainly for people who have points in the casino, you can use the points to buy these things, and then the hotel will go to the store to recover the points. At the same time, the store can also provide high-priced recycling business, which is actually cash out in disguise.
The investigators also found that there are "scalpers" who resell points near the entertainment bar, and if the players in the hotel are troublesome to cash out points shopping, they can directly find "scalpers" to exchange cash, but the exchange price is a little lower, generally 10,000 points can be cashed out for about 7,000 yuan.
In addition, it is not only the "Mingzhuang" of the hotel that controls the entertainment bar, but also the "dark village" that uses the platform of the entertainment bar to profit from gambling.
The dark dealer plays a one-to-one cash code. The so-called cash code is equivalent to not only using money to buy chips, but also using chips to directly exchange money back, which is actually real gambling.
Buy chips one-to-one from the hands of the dark dealer and then go to the entertainment bar to play, if the player wins, they will exchange the winning chips for cash, if they lose, they will earn.
Since the chips in the dark village are the same as those in the entertainment bar, in order to avoid confusion and figure out the accurate win or loss of the player, the dark village should send someone into the market to keep an eye on the player's every move, and then wait for the player to finish gambling, you can find the dark village to settle the cash. That is to say, someone is responsible for selling the code, someone is responsible for staring at the code, and the division of labor is very clear.
This kind of dark village does not know that it will think that it is a separate group of people, and it has nothing to do with the hotel, in fact, it is the person arranged by the hotel, using a disguised means to attract more people to "entertainment bar" and play "games".
According to the investigators' observations, winning or losing tens of thousands of dollars in it is trivial, hundreds of thousands and millions of dollars every night, so the entertainment bar in the Diamond Hotel is also known as the "Las Vegas of Ice City".
After Lu Jie truthfully reported the investigation to Xue Fei, Xue Fei decisively ordered a strict investigation. At the same time, he also told him that he must learn the lessons of the entertainment kingdom and remember not to leak the news in advance.
Lu Jie attached great importance to the case that Xue Fei personally supervised, and he began to mobilize manpower when he returned to the bureau. At eight o'clock in the evening, all the 150 police officers who were dispatched arrived, and all of them turned in their mobile phones and stood by in place.
At ten o'clock in the evening, he set off from the district bureau and was personally commanded by Lu Jie.
After departure, all police forces were informed of the specific mission they were carrying out.
When he arrived at the Diamond Hotel, Lu Jie gave an order, and all the police forces went straight to the entertainment bar on the top floor like a tiger.
Seeing this, the staff in the hall on the first floor hurriedly called Jiang Xiaojiang to report the situation, Jiang Xiaojiang just said that he knew, hung up the phone, and did not report to the Dou father and son immediately, but left the hotel as soon as possible.
After reporting to Xue Fei, seeing that there was no police to investigate for a long time, Jiang Xiaojiang thought that Xue Fei would not send someone here, after all, Xue Fei and the Dou father and son have a close relationship, and the Dou father and son have always been generous, who can get along with money? It seems that Qian Yan said that Xue Fei is a real officer, and the director of the public security bureau who does real things is just talking, how can there be so many people who enforce the law impartially in these years?
Just when Jiang Xiaojiang had basically given up, the police came and made him very happy, which made him really feel the happy feeling of revenge.
Jiang Xiaojiang didn't call Dou Xiaolong, it didn't mean that no one else called.
After Dou Xiaolong learned the news, he immediately called Jiang Xiaojiang, but he couldn't get through when he turned off his phone, which made Dou Xiaolong feel that the problem was very serious. Immediately Dou Xiaolong called Dou Yunlong again and asked him to understand the situation.
Before Dou Yunlong was transferred to the head of the plainclothes reconnaissance detachment, he had been working in Pingcheng District, and he was mainly responsible for public security management, so he had many subordinates in the Pingcheng District Bureau, and some of them had always maintained a good relationship.
Dou Yunlong called them to learn about the situation, and many of them couldn't get through, and those who could get through said that they only knew that the bureau had an operation tonight, but they didn't know what specific tasks they were performing.
Dou Yunlong called Xue Fei again and asked if the city bureau had any action tonight? Xue Fei asked three questions, and asked Dou Yunlong what's wrong, is something wrong? Dou Yunlong said that someone went to the Diamond Mansion Hotel. Xue Fei said that it might be a routine inspection, and as long as the hotel operates legally, there will be no problems. Dou Yunlong didn't say anything when he heard it.
Because of the serious gambling situation, the Pingcheng District Bureau sealed the Diamond Mansion and required it to suspend business for rectification until it was qualified.
The day after the investigation, Xue Fei called Lu Tao and asked him if he was interested in reporting on the seizure of the hotel for gambling? As soon as Lu Tao heard that it was a diamond hotel, he was very excited, and immediately said that if he was allowed to get first-hand information, he would definitely give a big page.
So Xue Fei asked Lu Tao to go to the Pingcheng District Bureau to find Lu Jie, and Lu Jie provided Lu Tao with a large number of photos of the scene last night and a list of various gambling equipment.
After Lu Tao returned to the newspaper, he wrote a special topic: The only super five-star hotel in our city was investigated for drug involvement, and the hotel is an industry of Longcheng Group.
The entertainment bar has been there since the birth of the hotel, and it has never been investigated and punished because Dou Yunlong worked in the Pingcheng District Bureau. Even if Dou Yunlong later went to work in the city bureau, no one went to check. Suddenly dispatched so many people to check gambling and sealed the hotel, Dou's father and son were surprised and puzzled.
If the hotel closes for one day, the loss will be very large, and the so-called suspension of business for rectification until it is qualified, in fact, it is an indefinite suspension of business for rectification, but if it is said lightly, it can resume business at any time, and there is a lot of flexibility in the middle. He is not qualified, it is all based on one sentence.
Dou's father and son have no friendship with Lu Jie, but Dou Yunlong knows that Lu Jie can be the leader of the Pingcheng District Bureau, including becoming a member of the Party Committee of the Municipal Bureau, all of which are supported by Xue Fei, so if this matter is to be solved, he has to find Xue Fei.
"Director Xue, don't dislike the shabby here, there's no way, the diamond giants have been sealed, so Director Xue can only deign to come here." Dou Xiaolong stood beside Xue Fei and said while pouring wine.
"Mr. Dou is too good at talking, this is a five-star hotel, if it is condescending to come here to eat, then I am really willing to come every day." Xue Fei quipped.
"If the Xue Bureau is willing to come every day, we can invite it every day." Dou Yunlong continued.
"If I come every day, I guess the Commission for Discipline Inspection will talk to me." Xue Fei smiled and waved his hand, indicating that he didn't dare to come every day.
After raising his glass and taking a sip, Dou Xiaolong looked at Xue Fei and asked, "Director Xue should have heard about the matter of the diamond giant, right?" ”
Xue Fei took a bite of food and said: "Yunlong called me on the night of the investigation, I thought it was a routine inspection, but later I learned that it was seized, and I was quite surprised at the time." Thanks to you, I have been to the diamond giants a lot of times, but in the places where I witnessed, I didn't find any illegal acts, why was it seized? After experiencing the entertainment kingdom, I believe that Longcheng Group will definitely not easily do illegal and criminal things. I called the Pingcheng District Bureau to find out that it was involved in gambling, to be honest, I was a little disappointed to hear the news. ”
Xue Fei showed disappointment on his face, and Dou Xiaolong and Dou Yunlong glanced at each other.
"I'm sad and innocent for something like this." Dou Xiaolong sighed and said: "This entertainment bar is not actually operated by a hotel, we have contracted out the top two floors, and it is the contractor's entertainment." At the beginning of the opening, I sent people from the company to see it, and it was a place of entertainment and leisure, and there were no illegal and criminal problems. Director Xue has carried out many inspections of entertainment venues since he took office, but the entertainment bar has never been investigated and punished, which shows that it is no problem. Who knows when it will turn bad and become a casino in disguise. Of course, I am not shirking responsibility by saying this, although the local government has contracted out, it is also obliged to supervise them, and this responsibility hotel cannot shirk. ”
"Oh, so that's the case, I just said that Mr. Dou learned the previous lesson, can't he open any casino. In this case, I believe that the hotel should be able to reopen soon after the renovation. Xue Fei didn't even believe in Dou Xiaolong's words, but he obviously didn't need to fight with Dou Xiaolong, it had already been seized anyway, and the result was that what he wanted was enough.
"Xue Ju should know that the length and length of the rectification time are very knowledgeable. It's a year and a half, and it's a week and a half a month. If you want to open as soon as possible, I'm afraid you have to take care of the Xue Bureau. Dou Xiaolong said the core purpose of inviting Xue Fei to this meal.
Xue Fei smiled and did not pick up.
After eating, when I came out of the private room, I saw Ma Jiayao coming over.
Ma Jiayao said hello to Dou Xiaolong and Dou Yunlong, and then said as if she had met Xue Fei by chance: "I happened to be looking for you to have something, so I met you." Are you done with it? ”
Dou Xiaolong and Dou Yunlong both said that they were fine, and then said goodbye to Xue Fei and left.
Xue Fei and Ma Jiayao tacitly glanced at each other, and the two of them immediately left the hotel.
After getting into the car, Xue Fei asked, "What good things did you send me this time?" ”
Ma Jiayao said with a smile: "You can guess, but I bet you can't guess." ”
Xue Fei guessed a few things one after another, and Ma Jiayao shook his head.
"You can just take it out, I can't guess." Xue Fei said he would admit defeat.
"I really can't get this thing out, so you can only see it yourself. Get out of the car. After Ma Jiayao finished speaking, she pushed the car door and went down.
What do you have to get out of?
Coming to the back of the car, Ma Jiayao opened the rear compartment, Xue Fei saw that there was a golden box like a toolbox inside, after Ma Jiayao opened the box, it emitted a golden light, which looked particularly dazzling and dazzling against the backdrop of the night.
It was a deck of mahjong tiles, and Xue Fei picked up one at random and found that it was very weighty, especially pressing.
"This is a mahjong tile made of pure gold, and even this mahjong box is pure gold. The hotel was closed because of gambling, but Dou's father and son gave you a pair of pure gold mahjong cards to bribe, which is really interesting. Ma Jiayao said with a smile.
Xue Fei closed the box and said, "I'll put this thing here for you first, I don't have a place to put it now, I'll ask you when I find a suitable place to put it." ”
Dou's father and son thought that Xue Fei had received something and that the hotel would resume business soon. As a result, more than ten days have passed, and there is no news at all, and the Dou family and his son are a little puzzled, could it be that Xue Fei is too light?
The two of them thought about it, except for being polite, they couldn't think of a reason for Xue Fei not to do anything, so they discussed to see what to send again, if they continued to suspend business like this, the loss would be too great.
Seeing that the two of them were worried about gift-giving, Liao Chuan gave them the idea: "If you want me to say, whatever you give, as long as it's valuable." But if you want to solve the problem, the key depends on who will deliver it. ”
The Dou father and son glanced at each other after listening to Liao Chuan's words, but they didn't understand what it meant.
"Ma Jiayao is not the most suitable candidate?" Dou Xiaolong asked.
"Of course she is, but so is the other person." Liao Chuan said mysteriously.
"Don't sell it, hurry up." Dou Yunlong said anxiously.
"This person is Luan Long." As soon as Liao Chuan's words came out, the Dou father and son were stunned.
Wouldn't letting Luan Long send it was equivalent to directly talking to Xue Fei about drugs?
Liao Chuan saw the doubts of the two of them, and explained: "Anyway, sooner or later, we are going to show our hole cards with Xue Fei, since there is such an opportunity, I think we should seize it." And through Luan Long, you can avoid all the bad results caused by face-to-face hole cards. I believe that after the hole cards are revealed, the relationship between us and Xue Fei will become closer, and if there is something in the Longcheng Group in the future, can he not help? I'm afraid he'll have to rush to help, too. In addition, we don't have to tear down the Luanlong bridge, in addition to selling drugs through him in the future, we can also let him share part of Ma Jiayao's role, why not do it. ”
Dou Xiaolong and Dou Yunlong pondered carefully, what Liao Chuan said made sense, the two of them laughed, and Liao Chuan also laughed.
