Chapter 1: Mr. Ji
With the intense incandescent lights on the table, the brand-new playing cards flipped over in that clean and beautiful hand, I stood next to me in a cheongsam, and sighed that the priceless watch and the extravagant cufflinks were not a woman's hand, but a man's hand.
And it is a man with a delicate life and a mysterious background.
The bodyguards and hall masters who accompanied him all called him Mr. Ji, and the people in the field were also respectful to him, no matter how vicious they were to us, they were extremely polite in front of him. He is not very old, less than forty, but his aura is very gloomy. Of course I won't know his name, a woman of our status, it is a great honor to be able to come in and deal cards and wait to see his true face, how dare you explore others, not to mention that he is not an ordinary person, the pomp is huge, just to play two cards, waiting for his car from the mouth of the gambling village alley to the opposite side of the long street.
Fa Ge, who watched the scene, kept saying that I was lucky, I was able to stand next to this master for so long in the middle of the night, I looked at him very puzzled, he raised his chin after sensing my gaze, "Do you know who he is." ”
I shook my head.
He laughed, sneering at my loneliness, he stomped his foot hard, and put a cigarette to his ear, "I will know later, there is nothing he can't do in this part of South China." ”
South China is surrounded by the sea economy developed, is a dense triangle province, there are two large ports, 80 percent of the import and export goods are transferred and circulated here, to make a lot of money in South China, there must be extremely clever means, but want to be famous in the rivers and lakes, but it is not so simple, to be proficient in conspiracy and deceit, know how to judge the situation, one is not afraid of death, two is ruthless enough to others.
Such a changing soil has bred many underground forces, and it has also made a group of strong-headed dragons who are not afraid of death rise.
I've been in the casino for a few years, I don't have a godfather, but I'm still living well, because I have a backer, he's my man.
He is clearly the manager of this field, and secretly does a lot of unspeakable business, I know all this, but I never ignore it, the companion is like a tiger, and the little tiger is also a tiger.
I am now working in this top casino in the troubled times of South China, my identity is a licensing lady, and I am also a kind of lady, but the nature is more extreme, we often rub shoulders with the uncle on the road, play is frightened, do not serve the common people.
The women in this line can swallow the essence of a man by putting on lipstick, and they can drink out of the BMW mansion when they uncork the bottle. If you hear that the bearer in which circle is out of the basket and is plotted by another group of people, the fuse must be the licensing lady of our field, and only the women of our field have the capital to play so beautifully in the men's rivers and lakes.
I have seen all the upper-class people in this field of South China, who are in their forties on average, have an extraordinary desire for power and beauty, and pay attention to pomp and circumstance.
I heard that Mr. Ji has a very eccentric personality, he is not very low-key, he likes to make friends with officials and businessmen, and even the largest official and political dignitary in the province has been his guest and friend, and he has a lot of friendship. His delicate skills and bottomless city government are the key to today's status in southern China.
Mr. Ji doesn't talk much, his eyes are not greedy, he never stares at the dealer, and he doesn't move his hands and feet, but his cold face is cold and murderous, so even if he is a gentleman, no one dares to serve in the private room, only I dare. No matter how difficult it is to deal with the master, I am not afraid, it depends on the owner to beat the dog, and the backstage of the South China Tianzihao Casino is not a vegetarian.
The chubby man opposite Mr. Ji, who does silk and shipbuilding business, all call him Boss Meng, he is a frequent visitor in the casino, he likes to use his hands and feet the most, whether it is to treat the cards in his hand or the lady who deals the cards, we all dislike him, he has a bad breath, and he likes to talk in the face, we often hold our breath, hide from afar before we dare to breathe. In the shipbuilding industry, he belongs to the handle, the gross profit of this industry is second only to real estate, relying on the government behind him, the scenery is prominent, he has such a huge and generous resources, and he is naturally stammered.
There was a girl sitting in Boss Meng's arms, she was snuggling on his shoulder and smiling like silk, it seemed that the card was very good, the man lowered his head and kissed her cheek, making her throw chips into the gambling pool, the woman did not do it immediately, but looked at Mr. Ji with her cheeks, "If you lose again, Mr. Ji is afraid that he will be unhappy, I don't dare to offend." ”
Mr. Ji looked focused and did not speak, his index finger slowly moved away from the number of cards in his hand, revealing the tip of the iceberg, I didn't fully see it clearly, so he blocked it again, he raised his eyes and stared at Boss Meng, the smile on the corner of his lips became bigger and bigger, "It seems that I am going to lose again." ”
Boss Meng smiled a little proudly treacherous, "Victory or defeat is a common thing in soldiers, there is no difference between life and death on the gambling table and the battlefield, they are all cut down, those who are cut die unexpectedly, and those who are cut off are promoted to knights, Mr. Ji is an old fritter in the rivers and lakes, and he can't afford to lose this money." ”
Mr. Ji doesn't care about winning or losing, he has come here many times, every time I am responsible for dealing cards, he has not won much in memory, no matter who he plays with is almost always losing, but he also likes to gamble very much, it is said that anyone who has gambled with him, and then mentioned him is as secretive as talking about the tiger color change, as if what a terrible thing happened after walking out of the casino, but I saw that Mr. Ji's cards are good, never care, and his face will not be red and white because of anger, so that the opponent looks disappointed.
He simply threw the cards in his hand into the pool, "Brighten the bottom." ”
After he said this, he leaned back in the back of the chair, stretched out his hand to the back, and the bodyguard standing next to him immediately handed him a cigarette, bowed down and lit it for him, he took the cigarette butt and took a hard puff, looking at the opposite side through a cloud of scattered white mist.
Boss Meng pinched the card and shook it in the air with a smile, "Mr. Ji is really destined for the ace of hearts tonight, and it is not your opponent to be anyone, but fortunately, Boss Meng has a better one." ”
As she spoke, she flipped the upside-down card from the table, and it was an ace of spades.
Boss Meng immediately laughed, there were very fine wrinkles on his forehead and eyes, he looked treacherous, and when he opened his mouth, he opened his mouth in a weird tone of yin and yang, "Mr. Ji, thank you for your concession." ”
Mr. Ji smiled without saying a word, raised his hand very gentlemanly, signaled to continue, I walked over and threw a chip into the pool in front of Boss Meng, I received all the cards in my hand, rinsed neatly and twisted out an even semicircle on the table, "Is this one for Texas Hold'em?" ”
Mr. Ji said, "I can do it all." ”
I was about to deal the cards, when a man in black suddenly walked in outside the private room, he was holding a walkie-talkie in his hand, his lips had not yet had time to close, it seemed that he had just ended a call, he walked up to Mr. Ji and said something in his ear, Mr. Ji frowned, he thought for a moment and said to Boss Meng in a slightly apologetic tone, "Something happened temporarily, I'm afraid I have to go first." ”
Boss Meng's luck is just right, he is naturally a little dissatisfied with Mr. Ji's exit halfway, this is the rule of the real connoisseur's gambling table, the losing side is not qualified to end the battle, even if he wants to leave, he has to open his mouth four games in advance, even if his luck improves, what he says cannot be changed.
However, no matter how dissatisfied Boss Meng was, he didn't express anything directly, but his face was not good and silent.
Mr. Ji stood up, his subordinates pulled the chair away for him, and he glanced at the high stacks of chips in the gambling pool, "It's because I don't pay attention to the rules, I will find an opportunity to pay back to Boss Meng what I owe today." ”
He finished fastening the two buttons of his black shirt against his collarbone, and walked around the corner of the table past me, and when he was halfway there, he suddenly stopped, and turned to look at me, I was about to send him out, and I was unprepared for his sudden projected gaze, and I stood there stunned, a little dazed.
It was the first time I had been so close to him, and our faces seemed to collide at any moment with a forward movement, and I could even see the longest stubble of his beard. Mr. Ji is not very good-looking, but the outline is surprisingly tough, and the most outstanding part of his facial features is the bridge of his nose, which is tall and straight, illuminated by white light, and is almost transparent.
I didn't quite understand what he suddenly stopped moving, I quietly took a half step back, keeping a distance from him, he had a half-cigarette on his thin lips, looking flirtatious, he looked at me as if he was reminiscing, about half a minute later, he suddenly laughed, pointed at me and said with a smile, "Feng Jin, right." ”
