Chapter 279: Money Comes Too Easily
Jiang Tao and Liu Renjie are both stepping on the land of Macao for the first time, Jiang Tao always has an unreal feeling in his heart, and even feels that the soles of his feet are floating, and the whole person is in a trance.
After all, Liu Renjie has been engaged in public security work for many years, and he adapts to the environment quickly, and he knows very well in his heart that the top priority at the moment is to find the casino where Conley is going. Jiang Tao's flight was an hour later than Conley's flight, and with the delay in customs clearance, Conley might have started a battle in a casino now.
RMB is common in Macau, Liu Renjie took out a hundred yuan, came to a small supermarket to buy a pack of cigarettes, when the cashier was giving change, Liu Renjie asked very politely: "Miss, which is the biggest casino here?" ”
"Sir, this is the first time you've come, isn't it? We don't call it a casino here, we should call it a casino, do you want to play a game and try your luck? The cashier lady was very talkative and enthusiastic, and raised a face full of white powder and asked.
"yes, I'm here for the first time, I saw the casino, oh! There are several casinos, but which one is the largest and most luxurious? Liu Renjie asked.
"Sir can go to the Lisboa Casino, which has the most complete facilities and the largest in Macau." The cashier said.
After Liu Renjie thanked him, he walked out of the supermarket, and he said to Jiang Tao: "Secretary Jiang, I don't think Kang Li will go to those small casinos, he is very willing to go to Lisboa." ”
Although Jiang Tao is not the second generation of officials and the second generation of rich, he knows that these people like to talk about pomp and circumstance and disdain to go to small places, so he feels that Liu Renjie's analysis is very reasonable.
"Hmmm! Let's go to the Lisboa Casino. Jiang Tao said.
Liu Renjie stretched out his hand to call a taxi, and after the car stopped steadily, Liu Renjie opened the back door for Jiang Tao, and he sat in the passenger seat.
The taxi quickly sent Jiang Tao and them to the door of the Lisboa Casino, and Liu Renjie handed the taxi driver a whole bill of 100 yuan, and said: "Don't look for it, ask for a lottery." ”
The taxi driver was overjoyed and hurriedly said: "The two bosses will definitely kill all sides, and win money to get hand cramps." ”
Jiang Tao laughed when he heard this, stretched out his hand and pointed at Liu Renjie and said, "Hehe! You can do it, and you blame Shinto. ”
"Boss, your money is also money, if you lose, I will feel sorry for you." Liu Renjie pretended to be sad and said.
Walking out of the taxi stand is the gate of the Lisboa Casino, although Jiang Tao is not a feng shui master, nor does he understand feng shui, but when he looked up at the design of this gate, he also felt that the casino is indeed ulterior motives, ingenuity.
The design of the gate of the Lisboa Casino does hide a lot of feng shui mysteries. One of the most sinister is the main entrance! One door is built like a lion's mouth, and the other door is like a tiger's mouth, and gamblers enter the casino from this, as if they fell into the mouth of a lion or tiger, and another reason is that the lion is the king of all beasts, and it has the effect of attracting wealth in feng shui; Tigers are ferocious beasts that serve as treasurers and housekeepers. Therefore, gamblers should not enter the casino through these two gates, otherwise they will 'send sheep into the tiger's mouth'.
At the top of the gate of the Lisboa Casino is the "Bat Hanging Money", which is designed to resemble a bat (i.e. a bat) opening to forage for food. Because the word "bat" is homophonic with the Chinese auspicious word "Fu", it symbolizes the effectiveness of attracting wealth and entering the treasure to attract wealth.
Jiang Tao and Liu Renjie walked into the door of the Lisboa Casino, and saw dozens of gambling tables in the hall, all kinds of gambling methods, each table was full of people, and the huge hall was crowded with people, very lively.
Jiang Tao looked up at the decoration in the hall, and the design of the casino was also thoughtful: the gambling hall was designed to be circular, and when the guests walked one or two laps, it was easy to lose their way; In addition, the ceiling is engraved with a pirate ship motif, and as soon as you step into the casino, it is like being ransacked by pirates. There are many small balls and some big balls on the top floor of Lisboa, and there is a white round enclosure below, which seems to be a white jade plate, so from a distance, it seems to be a 'big bead and a small bead falling jade plate', and the casino is always a big winner as a dealer.
In fact, Jiang Tao didn't pay attention to it, and only from the outside did he see that the appearance of the entire Lisboa casino resembled a birdcage, as if the gamblers who entered were trapped in the cage, which meant that they only entered and did not leave, and every gambler who entered the venue seemed to become a caged bird. And there are many sickle-like sharp weapons around its top, which are slashed in all directions, and gamblers are like caged birds to be slaughtered.
Jiang Tao and Liu Wanmin were like Grandma Liu entering the Grand View Garden at this time, and they didn't know what to do, let alone buy chips to bet. At this time, the waiter of the casino came over and bowed to Jiang Tao politely, "The first time the two gentlemen came, right?" If you'd like to test your luck, head over there and buy chips and place bets at any of the tables in the lobby. ”
Jiang Tao and Liu Renjie followed the waiter's guidance and came to the chip exchange office, Jiang Tao turned his head and asked Liu Renjie, "Renjie, how many chips should we change?" ”
Where does Liu Renjie know how much to change, but he understands a truth, that is, the more the better, after all, the more money in his hand, the more courageous he is, and if he has less money, he may not be able to enter the VIP room, and how can he find Conley if he can't enter the VIP room?
Liu Renjie turned around and asked a waiter beside him: "How much chips do you need to buy in your VIP room?" ”
As soon as the waiter heard it, he knew that these were two sheep, and he didn't understand anything and dared to enter the VIP room, which was because he was slow to die, but he was very polite: "Two gentlemen, the VIP room upstairs needs at least 10 million chips." ”
Liu Renjie then said to Jiang Tao: "Boss, just buy 10 million chips, and if you lose, let's buy it again." ”
The waiter standing next to him listened to Liu Renjie's words, he couldn't help it, he snorted, laughed, he looked around, hurriedly walked into the toilet next to him, and dared to laugh at the guests.
Jiang Tao and Liu Renjie went upstairs with 10 million chips, and there were three VIP rooms upstairs, which were also full of game tables. Jiang Tao saw that most people were playing baccarat, so he motioned for Liu Renjie to look in one room after another, and he found a random table and sat down.
At this time, most of the boot cards on this table have been issued, about forty hands, and the card on the wall shows that this boot card is very complicated, and there is no obvious pattern. At the end of a hand, Zhuang Xian is as big as a tie, Jiang Tao remembered that the master who taught him card skills once said, after the baccarat tie, it is easy to make a pair behind. Jiang Tao picked out two 500,000 chips from the chip tray and threw them in the betting area of the banker pair and the free pair, and then picked out another 1 million chips and threw them in the betting area of the banker.
Other gamblers have also placed bets, some bet on the banker, some bet on the leisure, and some follow the right.
Buy and leave, when the time comes, the dealer begins to deal the cards. Jiang Tao doesn't know anything about the odds of baccarat, he just knows how to bet. But as the saying goes: stupid people have stupid blessings, not to mention that Jiang Tao is not stupid. Maybe God bless the good people, this hand is out of a banker to win the banker to the idle pair. Before Jiang Tao could figure out what was going on, the dealer pushed a lot of chips in front of him, Jiang Tao roughly counted them, there were more than 10 million, and he asked the dealer suspiciously: "Why do you compensate me so much?" I've only made two million. ”
The dealer's face immediately turned green, and the other gamblers also looked at Jiang Tao as if they were aliens, and the dealer explained politely: "This gentleman, you have a banker pair and a free pair, and the odds of the pair are one to eleven, so I accompany you so much." ”
Jiang Tao suddenly realized, and said embarrassedly: "Hehe, the first time I played, I had no experience, and I laughed." ”
The dealer smiled understandingly and motioned for the gamblers to start placing their bets.
Jiang Tao looked up at the schematic diagram of the cards on the wall, and without hesitation, he randomly picked out a chip from the stack and threw it in the betting area of He.
Jiang Tao didn't pay attention, but the dealer and other gamblers saw that Jiang Tao threw out a chip of two million. You must know that the odds of a draw in baccarat are not great, and Jiang Tao's approach is tantamount to sending money to the casino. They all scoffed at Jiang Tao's betting method, the sheep is the sheep, just now it was just a blind cat meeting a dead mouse - it was just a coincidence.
Jiang Tao obviously had an indifferent attitude, he didn't come to win money, so after placing a bet, he didn't look at the cards and the dealer at all, but looked around.
At this time, Liu Renjie quietly walked to Jiang Tao's side and whispered in his ear: "Boss, he is in Hall 3." ”
"Oh! Let's get there. Jiang Tao also ignored the chips on the table, got up from the chair and was about to leave, when the dealer opened his mouth to stop him: "Sir, you have already placed a bet, and you must wait for the cards to open before leaving." ”
Jiang Tao stretched out his hand to get the chips he had bet on the table, "Won't I press it?" ”
The dealer was made laughing and crying by Jiang Tao's actions, so he had to patiently explain: "Sir, you have already placed a bet, and you can't get the chips back." Please wait a few dozen seconds and open the cards immediately. ”
Jiang Tao had no choice but to stand at the table and wait for the dealer to deal the cards.
The dealer drew the playing cards from the boots one by one, first issued the player a three, the dealer a flower card, and then issued the player a four, the dealer is still a flower card, this is the card is the player seven points, the dealer zero, according to the provisions of baccarat, the dealer to make up the card. The gambler who bet on the bank began to shout: "Seven, seven, eight, eight and nine!" Seven, seven, eight, eight, and nine! ”
Liu Renjie didn't know what Jiang Tao bet, but he saw that there seemed to be a lot more chips in the chip plate, so he asked in surprise: "Boss, why do you have so many chips, you didn't just buy it, right?" ”
Jiang Tao turned around and smiled, and said, "I made a blind bet just now and won 12 million." ”
"What!?" Liu Renjie's jaw almost fell to the ground, this is too easy, you can win so much money with one hand, no wonder the gambling phenomenon has been repeatedly banned.
At this time, the dealer had already drawn the last playing card, and Jiang Tao couldn't help but think: Could it be seven?
Who knew that it was such a coincidence, the dealer turned over the playing cards, and the card was a seven, and the banker's seven and the player's seven were a tie. The dealer pushed a bunch of chips to Jiang Tao's year ago, and explained: "Sir, your luck is really good, you bet on the sum of two million, the odds are one to eight, and you should be paid 16 million." ”
Rub, the gamblers at this table looked at Jiang Tao, this sheep's luck is really good, he won 28 million in two hands, and it seems that he is going to bet with him.
Who knew that Jiang Tao pulled the chips on the table into the plate, and let Liu Renjie go to the No. 3 VIP room with the plate.
The people at this gambling table saw that the boots were almost finished, and Jiang Tao's luck was so victorious, they all got up one after another and followed Jiang Tao to the No. 3 VIP room, intending to follow the trend to bet and win some money.
However, the people who followed Jiang Tao into the No. 3 VIP room would not have thought that there would be a wonderful farce staged in front of them later, which would make them regard it as a classic and have a long aftertaste.
