Li Shiqun didn't believe it: "You are a weird person. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info others are staring at the dice, but you are staring at people. I can't think of any point in looking at these people. Is there anything more noteworthy in a casino than winning or losing money? ”

"It's hard for me to say if it's worth it, but it's going to be a little more interesting." Rong Ziyi smiled and said, "Let me give you an example." Do you see the man on the other side? The one in a dark blue suit. ”

"Well, I see."

"What do you see?"

"What can there be, one ordinary person." Li Shiqun looked at it carefully again and came to the conclusion that it was true that this person was not surprising among many gamblers.

The dice cup opened, and the dealer took Rong Ziyi's chips mercilessly.

"You're only scratching the surface." The corners of Rong Ziyi's mouth twitched slightly, and he continued to put a few chips on the "big": "Do you see his oily face?" He had been wiping his sweat with a handkerchief. His fingers were always working involuntarily. The collar of his shirt was unkempt, and one button was missing from his suit. ”

Li Shiqun was puzzled: "What can this mean?" A lot of people in this casino are just like him. It's too hot in the room, and he's too sloppy. ”

Rong Ziyi shook his head: "Absolutely not." Judging from the material of his clothes, his original family background should be good. But the clothes already don't fit well, and the style is also a style that was popular a few years ago, apparently made a few years ago, and it hasn't been ironed and cleaned for a long time. You can see how skillful he is at shaking the dice, and how expert he is at talking to people, it is not difficult to think of the sad story of a company employee who originally had a great future almost lost his job, lost his family property, and even embezzled public funds to make up for the shortfall since he became a gambling habit. ”

This game is over, and Rong Ziyi's chips are taken away again. He doesn't care about the "big" bet unremittingly.

Li Shiqun laughed: "Mr. Rong, you think too much. Such people abound in this hall. So, put away your sympathy and pity. If you have this time, you might as well care about how much money you have lost now. ”

"Director Li, you are wrong. I don't sympathize with him at all. It's just that by observing people or observing life, there are always some wonderful discoveries, and sometimes even surprises. Extrapolating the trajectory of other people's lives has always made me think that I can judge and laugh at others from the perspective of staying out of the situation. Rong Ziyi raised his eyebrows and smiled slightly sarcastically: "It's still this person, it's easy for us to think about what his tomorrow will be." He will go bankrupt, his wife will be separated, and his family will be ruined. One day, he would commit suicide by hanging himself or poisoning, or even throw himself into a river or starve to death. But it was all self-inflicted, wasn't it? For him, the casino is both the stage of his gaming life and the grave of his self-destruction. ”

"I don't see any meaning in what you're saying." Li Shiqun said unceremoniously.

"Meaning? The meaning is to warn ourselves not to go his way. His greatest fault was greed, and the problem of greed is not unique to him, it is a common human shortcoming, isn't it? He shifted his gaze to Li Shiqun, looked at it obviously, and said, "I'm very happy, I didn't see this problem in Director Li." ”

"Oh? I don't understand, how did you come to this conclusion? Li Shiqun asked with interest.

"It's simple." Rong Ziyi replied with a smile: "You heard that Zhang Xiaolin intends to be the supervisor of the Huashang Gauze Exchange, but he is completely indifferent, doesn't it show this?" ”

Li Shiqun was even more puzzled by the second monk: "Is there a connection between this?" ”

Rong Ziyi did not speak. He looked at the chips in front of him, and was once again held clean by the dealer. The gamblers next to him had already given up gambling, and all of them stared at him in a circle, their expressions were more excited and nervous than him, and some even whispered to remind him not to bet anymore.

Rong Ziyi smiled faintly, put the remaining chips on the "big", clapped his hands and said, "Zhang Xiaolin is doing things for the Japanese, you should know about raising military supplies, right?" ”

"Of course." Li Shiqun's heart is still the thread I pulled.

Rong Ziyi's hands were spread: "The reason why he wants to be this supervisor is probably to prepare for his next step to raise cotton products for the Japanese." But I've heard my second brother say that your company is also buying similar products. That's why I said that Director Li is not greedy and is willing to share the market with others. ”

Li Shiqun suddenly realized: "It turns out that you mean this." He pondered for a while and hesitated: "However, with my relationship with Xiaolin, I am confident that I can control him, and I don't believe that he will dare to grab products from me." ”

Rong Ziyi shrugged: "I'm glad you have this kind of confidence. It's a bit like provocative to say it, and I'm not as optimistic as you. I think that after Zhang Xiaolin sat in the first position of the Green Gang, he recruited troops everywhere, recruited disciples, and expanded his power. Now, as his relationship with the Japanese military department has become closer and closer, I am afraid that you are no longer needed. ”

Li Shiqun's face changed: "I think he shouldn't be able to cross the river and tear down the bridge." He still had a word to say. In the aftermath of the confrontation that has just begun, any remarks made by either side against the other side may be rumor-mongering or slander.

The dealer started, and sure enough, in this game, Rong Ziyi lost again unexpectedly.

"Of course." Rong Ziyi still smiled lightly: "I don't know him as well as you." I'm just analyzing it according to common sense, and Director Li doesn't have to worry about it at all. So, let's go back to the man in the suit across from us. You see, he's already lost, and he's untied his watch and plans to break the boat for the final game of the day. So, at the end of the day, it's all about how much leverage we have, don't we? ”

Out of nowhere, he took out another chip and shook it in front of Li Shiqun: "Fortunately, I haven't been cornered yet." There's one last one here. In fact, I'm always willing to keep a little bit of it, after all, we always need a little bridge money, and we don't want to regret it until we are in a desperate situation. He stood up, glanced around, and continued, "Actually, all of us are gamblers in the truest sense of the word!" Aren't we in a bigger casino? We've been betting non-stop on our lives, our loves, and our careers. We bet on whether the government will fall, whether the war will be won, whether we will live to see the sun tomorrow. I just hope that when the game is over, I can get my chips in my hands and get out of the game decently, instead of being forced to take a desperate gamble. ”
