When he returned to Hong Kong in the afternoon, he checked the bank statement and found that the account had received 8.1 million Hong Kong dollars, according to the exchange rate in April 2004, the US dollar to the Hong Kong dollar was about 7.7, that is, 1.05 million US dollars. But with the God of Gamblers skill, he will turn over.

Then he packed his luggage, changed out of his casual clothes, changed into a suit and shirt, his pants were straight, and his leather shoes were shiny, and he had a complete makeover. Put a watch on your wrist, stand in front of the mirror, think about it, and put yourself on a pair of flat mirrors, the image is completely different.

Taking the car to the airport, in the waiting room, Shi Hu called home.

It was my adoptive father who answered the phone, and I had a lot to say, but I didn't know where to start. Shi Hu said that he was going to go on a business trip for a while, let him take care of himself, stop playing the six-lottery, and stop arguing with his aunt...... Shi Yuanchao listened to a few words, and suddenly said, "Stinky boy, are you causing trouble again?" ”

Knowing his son Mo Ruo's father, Shi Hu smirked: "It's nothing." It's true. ”

"I can't control you, when I was still studying, your teacher told me that this kid's thinking is too unique, his temperament is wild, he can't guide him well, sooner or later something will happen, and he will tell me to beat me with a stick, but your aunt is always reluctant, and protects you everywhere, I really regret why I didn't have a hard heart at the beginning......"

"Isn't this happening?" Shi Hu was embarrassed.

Shi Yuanchao didn't believe it: "Say, what do you need to do at home?" ”

"Don't do anything. Hey, yes, my sister is not young, it's easy to fall in love at this age, be careful, don't take advantage of the wild boys outside. ”

He said meaningfully: "I know the truth better than you, and your sister will be paired with you in the future." ”

Shi Hu almost cried: "Uncle, I still want to work hard and face life seriously, you suddenly scare me so much, my legs are weak." ”

"Your sister is not your own sister, what are you afraid of?"

"It's the 21st century now, pay attention to free love, and the fat water does not flow to outsiders, that is the ......feudal ideology," Shi Hu had to argue with his adoptive father.

Shi Yuanchao interrupted him: "I don't know what your kid has done, it's none of my business, anyway, it's the same old thing: I don't understand, I don't know, I don't know." ”

Typical of the ideology of the era of political struggle, the sense of crisis is comparable to that of a spy, Shi Hu smiled: "It's going to be fine." Well, there's no shortage of money at home, right? ”

Shi Yuanchao reminded: "Don't give money to the family anymore, it's enough, your aunt always suspects me of secretly gambling." ”

"This money is all for my sister's school fund, and it costs a lot to go to college, so if you don't dress up beautifully, how can you attract other people's children?"

"What kind of chicken and duck gold, a set, isn't it good to talk about the capital of the profit?"

Shi Hu talked to his adoptive father a little, and then said a few words to his aunt. There's nothing to say, and if you talk too much, it will make them worry. On the bright side, he bluntly said that he would go abroad with the boss, and he might go on business for a while, and it would not be easy to contact him in a foreign country.

After chatting for twenty minutes, I finally hung up the phone and it was time to board.

The process went smoothly, he bought a ticket from Hong Kong to Las Vegas, and transferred in San Francisco, the whole journey is expected to take 20 hours. Money is earned, life is short, and it is time to be happy...... Especially when there is not much left of life.

After a long journey, the plane landed in San Francisco, local time was at night, and the number of inbound passengers was so large that the speed of procrastination could not be improved. Shi Hu in line looked around, his gaze swept over the colorful passengers, and he used mind-reading skills on a random target.

He is already proficient in reading cards, but it is much more difficult to read and think. One or two out of ten people may succeed, which is a big improvement compared to the original barely knowing how to use it. He also has a knack for trying to meet face-to-face, which has a higher success rate when others are unsuspecting or tired.

Travelers around are complaining about the slow entry speed, some people have not been able to catch the transfer time, I am afraid that they will have to change the book, and the heart is constantly Falk American ancestors, and the funny thing is that the guy is British...... Shi Hu retracted his gaze, he was bored enough.

He turned his attention to the immigration officer, a Latina lady on his side, who was very patient, some with few questions, others endlessly. Shi Hu was deducing that her pass rate was quite high, but when she was the tenth person, she frowned.

Shi Hu strongly felt that she was going to refuse this person entry.

It was too far away to hear the conversation, but soon, the man was escorted away in frustration and was not allowed to enter. The reason is unknown to others, and some of the surrounding passengers cast regretful glances at him...... But Shi Hu knew the reason: this person had a criminal history and it was recorded.

Don't ask him how he knew, the lady found it.

After the snail crawled for a while, it was his turn. Giving him his passport and visa, the other party looked at him. Shi Hu wondered, does he look in line with Western aesthetics? Three-dimensional facial features and a straight nose? She opened Shi Hu's passport, wow, he was also born in 78, but he didn't know what Chinese sexual prowess......

Shi Hu sweated, as if he knew too much.

"Is it hot?" She smiled.

Shi Hu wiped his sweat: "A little, ma'am." ”

"When was the last time you were in the United States?" She asked.

"About 40 days ago, I came to Los Angeles with friends." Shi Hu's English is okay, and he specially added: "Of course, I prefer Santiago." ”

She smiled: "I like it too, I'm from San Diego." ”

"It's a beautiful city." Shi Hu said...... I thought to myself, I hadn't been there at all.

"I agree. Where are you going this time? She asked again.

"Las Vegas, **, parties and entertainment." Shi Hu smiled.

"Enjoy it and have a great trip." She stamped his passport, and apparently the favor played a role.

Get your passport back, hand in your luggage, go through security, and wait for boarding...... It's a pity that the feeling of reading the immigration officer all the way has disappeared, and I can no longer get that kind of I know what you're thinking, or even know what you're not thinking from other people...... It's a pity, I knew to talk a little more.

San Francisco took off with a connecting flight, a one-hour flight, and finally landed at McCarran Airport.

The time happened to be the most lively point in the casino, and before the plane landed, Shi Hu saw a bright and dazzling pillar of light in the night sky soaring into the sky, which could be seen clearly dozens of kilometers away. Surrounded by night, a metropolis with countless flashing neon lights and signal lights slowly unfolded in front of you.

Taxis drive along Las Vegas' busiest thoroughfare, flanked by hotels of different shapes that dazzle at night, creating a world of colorful signs, billboards, and neon signs.

Exaggerated buildings continue to brush the eyeballs, and the Egyptian pyramids with giant pillars of light at the top; Radiant and radiant, like a European castle in a fairy tale; MGM, which shimmers with a bright green glow and makes people can't take their eyes off it; the Statue of Liberty, the Empire State Building, that is the transplanted New York; Or even an Eiffel Tower, with a strong Parisian atmosphere in the desert; The magnificent Caesar's Palace in Rome...... What a crazy city!

Shi Hu's eyes were firmly attracted by the wonderful and colorful world outside, and his decision seemed to be correct at all, he was the first time to admire the casino at night. Originally, when I was in Macau, I thought there were more casinos, what was the difference? When you are in the middle of it, you know the gap.

However, Macau's gambling business has a vague tendency to surpass Las Vegas, and Shi Hu also believes that as long as the mainland opens up quotas, it will be a matter of minutes to surpass Las Vegas -- only for the gaming and lottery industry. Because Las Vegas is diverse, it is known not only for gambling, but also for its thriving entertainment and tourism industry, Macau is geographically weak, not to mention that Vegas is facing the world.

Looking at the wonderful world outside the window, I think about wanting to wander here, and I look forward to it.

Although he may not live to be seventy or eighty, it is not too bad to have such a wonderful experience in his life. It's better than living a mediocre life, so what's the point of living a hundred years old? Shi Hu is a restless character, he is eager to be wonderful, and he is not willing to be ordinary.

The taxi stopped, and he checked into the Bellagio Hotel, the same casino hotel that was robbed in the movie "Ocean's Eleven", the five-star star shows its luxury to the fullest, the huge artificial lake in front of the hotel erupts every once in a while, and there is a flickering "Paris" opposite.

Shi Hu booked a penthouse suite, although it is not at the presidential level, but it costs more than 1,000 US dollars including tax, and it is nearly 10,000 yuan a night in exchange for RMB. The luxury of this specification was not dared to be tried in the past, but now it is ...... It's still the same sentence: life is short, be happy in time.

Let yourself live a wonderful, comfortable life for eight years, and then die damn it.

Collapsed on the big bed, looked out the window at the colorful world, rolled a long circle and didn't land...... This taste is cool! Then go to the living room and dig through the fridge, pour yourself some whiskey, grab some snacks to eat, and plan what to do next: blackjack, poker.

If these two things play normally, it is not a problem to earn hundreds of thousands of dollars a day, and it is still a beautiful knife.

He sipped his cold whiskey, walked barefoot through the spacious living room, stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, and admired the gushing musical fountains below, the Eiffel Tower across the street, a bustling city in the desert that showed a very different kind of excitement. He felt like he was enjoying the pleasure.
