Lin Yu nodded to him, then closed the window, and after Li Ke got into the car, the car immediately started and slowly left the scene.

He Yunqi, who was still a little frightened, looked at the few big men who fled from the back window, and saw that they were getting farther and farther away, so he breathed a sigh of relief, turned around, looked at Lin Yu with beautiful eyes, and said gratefully: "Thank you so much, thank you for helping me, if I didn't have you, I would be in trouble today." How much does it cost to repair your car, give me the bill when the time comes, and I will definitely take care of it! ”

"Forget it, it doesn't cost much, where are you going?" Lin Yu didn't look at it and asked lightly.

He Yunqi raised her pretty face and kept smiling and looking at Lin Yu, smiling like a flower. I am very grateful for this young man who helped, and I am also a little curious, especially his performance just now, which is really "pie", in fashionable terms, it is really cool. It can be seen that Lin Yu treats himself as if he is nobody, does not look at himself at all, as if he disdains his beauty, and his heart is not angry, and the little woman's temper comes up, and she exhales: "Don't dare to bother you, just put me down at the corner." ”

"Okay, stop around the corner!" Lin Yu said to the driver in front. He didn't want to mess around with a troublesome girl, especially if it was a journalist.

He Yunqi was stunned, originally just saying angry words, thinking about other people seeing him, they were all shocked, and they all changed their methods to please themselves, and even found all kinds of excuses to stay with him for a while. Who knew that Lin Yu was so faceless, he didn't take himself in his eyes at all, and he actually said yes, daring to be grateful and emotional, it was a waste of feelings. Looking at his indifferent face, I really wanted to slap him. Hit him all over the face.

The driver slowly retreated around the corner according to Lin Yu's instructions. and got out of the car and ran over to help He Yunqi open the car door.

He Yunqi got out of the car in a huff. I saw the car "buzz" out and quickly disappear from my sight.

He Yunqi walked home angrily and scolded this cold and arrogant Lin Yu for being bloody, but it seemed that the more he pondered, how could this young man be so familiar? After a while, I remembered that the walls that arrived later just now didn't they say that they were sent by the Huo family? What about this teenager......

……

O Island. It has been under Portuguese administration for a long time and is one of the few undefended cities in the world. Only the police force maintains law and order; In addition, in its own development history, Aodao has formed a special group ——— gangsters. And Fourteen is the largest gang organization on Ao Island. Before the return of Ao Island, the leader of the fourteenth was named Yin Guoju. Known as "Broken Tooth Pony", he is it. Of course, he is just a "red stick" at this time!

Lin Yu stayed on Hong Kong Island for three days before he was ready to go to Ao Island.

Since ancient times, there has been a saying, that is, "It's not a raptor, but it's not a river"! And it doesn't have to be the Raptors who cross the river!

Ao Island is known as one of the world's three major gambling cities (Las Vegas, Ao Island, Monte Carlo), and the gambling industry has been designated by the SAR government as the leading industry of the Australian Island economy. So, get to know Ao Island. It is necessary to understand the gambling industry on the island. And if you want to understand the gambling industry on the island, it is not a day's work. It is an unsolved mystery, whether it is analyzed as a huge industry or studied as a special phenomenon of society.

In 2007, there were 11 casinos on the island, 353 gaming tables, and nearly 10,000 employees (in 2009, three casinos in Singapore were Dream City, Pharaoh Casino, Charles de Gaulle Casino), half of the government revenue of the island came from the gaming industry, and in the 12 months from April 06 to the end of March 07, the SAR government collected as much as 9.1 billion yuan in taxes from the gaming industry alone. The gaming industry and its related industries absorb nearly half of the island's workforce. As the leader of the 11 casinos on the island, the Lisboa Casino is a money printing machine that runs non-stop every second. There are more than 30,000 customers entering and leaving Lisboa Casino every day, and the revenue in the past March was more than 100 million yuan, ranking first among all casinos in the world in terms of the number of customers and income.

Compared with Las Vegas, one of the world's four largest casinos, Ao Island is dominated by gaming tables, accounting for 95% of its turnover, while Las Vegas is dominated by slot machines, accounting for 70% of its turnover; There are a total of 247 casinos in Lacheng, which is more than 20 times that of the casinos on the island, but the gambling tax paid every year is less than eighty percent of the 11 casinos on the island! The reason for this is that the tax rate paid by the gaming industry on the island is almost 6 times that of Lacheng!

The unique birdcage-like building of the Lisboa Casino has not only become a major landscape of the island, attracting thousands of domestic and foreign tourists every day, but also like a window to interpret the island, attracting some Chinese and foreign people who are interested in the island. A Lisboa casino has 3,000 staff members alone! The 26 VIP rooms bring together high rollers from all over the world, and if you let the salarymen with a monthly income of only about 1,000 yuan go in and take a look, the big gamblers' "generosity" will definitely make your heart skip a beat!

The Lisboa Casino has a secret money counting room, where it is said that 40 employees are dedicated to counting money. Every day, the operating income of the company's 11 casinos is escorted here by time period, and they count them one by one. Most of the cash sent is 1,000 yuan in Hong Kong dollars or Australian dollars, and 40 employees work an average of 16 hours a day to count the day's income, when the high is high, hundreds of millions of yuan a day, and as little as 40 or 50 million yuan.

The security measures here are so tight that outsiders have no way of knowing about it, even the vast majority of the casino's employees, let alone being qualified to set foot here. Only the commissioners of the Government Gaming Inspectorate, together with the many different angles of the house's surveillance probes, were closely monitoring every move in the house. Casino money is easy to come by, because of the "generosity" of gamblers. So far, the reporter has only seen a face value of 50 yuan, 100 yuan, 1000 yuan a "chip", a senior staff member of the casino revealed to the reporter that the face value of the largest chip in the casino is 2 million yuan! Some high-rollers bet on ten or eight at a time, and a win or loss is tens of millions of yuan!

Casino Ao Island generally gambles with "chips". The so-called "chips" are a special small plastic round cards, which are marked with the amount of money, the smallest chip has a face value of 50 yuan, and the largest has a face value of 2 million yuan. When a gambler enters the casino, he must first go to the counter dedicated to exchanging "chips" to buy "chips", and then go to the table where you want to go to place a bet. It is okay to bet directly with cash, but it is inconvenient to exceed 10,000 yuan. Therefore, most of the people who bet with cash in the casino are retail investors and small households, and the big gamblers who throw 100,000 or 100,000 gold are definitely betting with "chips", and the face value of a "chip" they hold is at least 10,000 yuan.

Casino "chips" are like money. Therefore, many casino regulars do not exchange "chips" for cash when they win, so as not to have to exchange "chips" next time they come to the casino, which is troublesome. In fact, it is not all for this reason, many shops on the island can use "chips" to consume, especially some restaurants and bars around the casino, absolutely recognize "chips". It is said that when gamblers patronize these restaurants and bars, as long as they throw a few "chips" on the table, the guys will immediately put on a bright smile and treat each other with courtesy. Maybe in the mind of the shopkeeper, all the people who play gambling are full of money.

In the 12 months from April last year to the end of March this year, the SAR government collected as much as 9.1 billion yuan in taxes from the gaming industry alone, of which the tax collected from the Hutchison casino casino is 1/3 of the gaming tax on the island, which is the bulk of the gaming tax on the island.

The gaming industry and its related industries absorb nearly half of the labor force employment on the island, providing important conditions for the government to implement low tax and tax exemption policies, attract foreign investment, and develop export processing industries. More than 80% of the tourists come to Macao in the name of gambling, and the gaming industry directly maintains the employment of nearly 10,000 people, and bears most of the passenger traffic of Deng, Hong Kong and Macao water transportation, as well as part of the expenditure of public works and social charity and cultural undertakings.

The Grand Hotel Lisboa, completed in 1970, is most notable for its casino. There are nearly 20 types of lucky games operated by the Lisboa Casino. The running dog, pull-back ball, and carriage types in the betting industry are often in the red. In other words, Lisboa Hotel is a pillar industry of the Ao Island Administrative Region Government and one of the main tax sources of the Ao Island Administrative Region.

Lisboa Casino, also known as Lisboa Hotel, was built in the 70s, and just after the construction of the Lisboa Hotel became the landmark of Ao Island, and after development, it gradually became the largest casino under Ao Island Gaming Co., Ltd.

Lisboa Hotel is located in the heart of Ao Island, facing the beautiful Hao River, just 15 minutes' drive from Ao Island International Airport and 5 minutes' drive to and from Hong Kong Macau Ferry Terminal. Known as the "symbol" of Ao Island, the hotel is the "Little City" of Ao Island with its traditional and courteous hospitality, with constant updates and modern equipment. The Hotel Lisboa has 3,000 guest rooms and luxury guest suites, ranging from ordinary rooms to presidential suites, all luxuriously furnished and equipped with modern amenities, most of which have a panoramic view of the South China Sea and the island. Whether it's for a break, a stretch or a business trip, the hotel is the ideal choice.

The hotel's noble restaurant, "Jiali Restaurant", offers Portuguese and European famous dishes. Open 24 hours a day, the "Sleepless Sky Cafe" serves specialties from all over the world.
