Chapter 3: Brilliant Nightclub
Shanghai is an international metropolis that has not lost its name as the Pearl of the Orient because of the occupation by the Chinese army. When the invasion of the Chinese army was in full swing, it was still a prosperous place. The rickshaw that ran all the way came to the most prosperous street in the concession, "Sir, this is the most prosperous place in the concession, there are eating, drinking, playing and living, this is looking for your money" The coachman counted out a large handful of change and handed it over. "Okay, it's all yours" Zhao Zhi waved his hand and left with his arms dangling, not because he was kind-hearted, but because he was too lazy to pretend to be those crumpled changes.
Shanghainese, Zhao Zhi didn't understand, and it took a lot of comparison with the rickshaw driver just now. Zhao Zhi, whose ancestral home is in the southern city of Yanjing, was brought to the United States by his aunt since he was a child, and the Chinese language is also a Beijing film learned from his aunt, and after joining the mercenaries, he also fights everywhere in the south and the north, and the accent is a little weird, but many national languages, Zhao Zhi is very proficient.
Since he couldn't understand Shanghainese, Zhao Zhi targeted some places where foreigners often frequented. Zhao Zhi stood under the neon sign of a bar and counted to 2000, and a foreigner with a figure very close to Zhao Zhi walked out of the bar. "It's you" Zhao Zhi showed a strange smile on his face and followed behind the foreigner. Seeing that no one was paying attention around, Zhao Zhi leaned over with a few arrows, first slashed at the back of the foreigner's neck with a blade, put his hands together, and dragged the foreigner's sliding body into a small black alley.
Ten minutes later, when Zhao Zhi walked out of the small black alley, he was already wearing a suit. With the black silk clothes in his hand, he wiped the leather shoes on his feet by the street lamp, looked at them with satisfaction, and threw away the black silk shirt. "Damn, I didn't expect it to be quite suitable" Zhao Zhi straightened the tie around his neck, touched the stack of banknotes he had just gotten in his pocket, and walked confidently towards the casino that he had been optimistic about.
The four-storey glorious nightclub is a gold cave that can be counted in this area, eating, drinking, playing and living in a one-stop service, the first floor is a restaurant, north and south dishes and even foreigners' Western food, as long as you can tell, this chef will make it for you. On the second floor is the dance hall, where beauties from all over the world gather, both black and blonde. The third floor is the destination of Zhao Zhi's trip - Brilliant Casino, from the mahjong and dice that Chinese love, to the poker of Western play, as long as you dare to gamble, even human life can be gambled here. The fourth floor is the hotel, full of British royal style hotel decoration looks very magnificent, in the second and third floors tired of the guests can directly open the room on the fourth floor to stay, no need to go out of the glory.
took out a banknote and stuffed it to the doorman, Zhao Zhi took out a cigar from his pocket and put it in his mouth, and the doorman hurriedly came over with a lighter. Holding the cigar between his fingers, Zhao Zhi spewed out a puff of smoke from his mouth and walked into the glory with a smile. Along the stairs, Zhao Zhijing went up to the casino on the third floor, wow, there are so many people. Looking at the crowd in the casino, Zhao Zhi couldn't help but admire, this place is about to catch up with Las Vegas in the previous life.
Waving his hand to call a reception, Zhao Zhi threw out a stack of banknotes into the tray, and motioned for the receptionist to help him change chips. Damn, Zhao Zhi secretly smiled in his heart, looking at the few red chips in his hand, which were the smallest chips in the casino. The chips here are exchanged according to the US dollar, Zhao Zhi gave fiat currency, and when converted into US dollars, he can only get less than 10 US dollars in chips. No wonder the hostess looked at Zhao Zhi with such a strange look just now, I think he had never seen a guest who was charged as an uncle with less than $10.
With chips in hand, Zhao Zhi sat down in front of a dice table, which was one of Zhao Zhi's favorite gambling techniques in his previous life. Zhao Zhi worked as a bodyguard for a Las Vegas casino tycoon for three years in his previous life, often dealing with the dealers in the casino, and learning a few tricks from them when he was bored, and over time Zhao Zhi also became a gambling master. Although the most exposed to Western gambling methods, Zhao Zhi is best at dice, because he can listen to dice.
There are not many people in front of the dice table, only two or three kittens, and Zhao Zhi needs to accumulate gambling money here. pressed three small handfuls in a row, each time it was a chip, and Zhao Zhi lost three in a row. On the fourth, Zhao Zhi pressed the remaining 5 chips on the three five-leopards, and the leopards on this table were 30 to 1. The sieve cup was opened, and sure enough, it was three fives, and the person who was still laughing at Zhao Zhi's bet just now couldn't laugh. A black chip with a face value of 100 and 5 yellow chips with a face value of 10 yuan were pushed to Zhao Zhi's hand by the dealer.
"Sir, your luck is so good" With the words, a perfume smell wafted into Zhao Zhi's nose, and a beautiful woman wearing a sleeveless cheongsam stood beside Zhao Zhi, with a hibiscus jade face, willow leaf thin eyebrows, and no trace of flawlessness could be found on her white pretty face. The large filigree satin cheongsam tightly wrapped her plump and slender **, and the slit on the side is extremely high, revealing her bright thighs. There is an inexplicable desire in those watery phoenix eyes, luxurious headdresses, earrings, necklaces, bracelets, rings, all of which show her noble status in this era.
At the moment of seeing Zhao Zhi for the first time, Xie Xiuyunfang's heart was secretly shocked, this person seemed to reveal a temperament that did not belong to this era, he had read tens of millions of people, and had never seen his kind of temperament, although he did not have the handsome jade face of a small white face, but he made a kind of rough lines, it can be said that it was a pure man's face, especially the eyes like a cold star were extremely deep, making people unable to see through what he was thinking, with his tall and strong male tiger body, there was an irresistible masculine momentum.
glanced at Xie Xiuyun, who was looking at him with both eyes discharged, "Nothing to do, be diligent, or steal" Zhao Zhi muttered in his heart, took a $10 chip and threw it to the dealer, "This is a reward for you" Grabbing the remaining chips, Zhao Zhi changed the table and changed to a table for playing 21 points.
A tall man in a black suit walked up to Xie Xiuyun and leaned down, "Miss Xie, is there anything wrong with that kid?" Xie Xiuyun shook his head, "No, I haven't seen it yet, but there must be something wrong with him." His method of betting is simply a casino veteran, lose first and then win, and it is a big win" The black suit was stunned, Xie Xiuyun was a gambling master who was invited back from Macau by the boss for a lot of money, and even she didn't see the depth of that person, which was a little difficult to do.
Thinking of this, the black suit gestured, "Miss Xie, do you want me to give him away" "No, don't want to give him first, I don't see this person easily, you didn't see his eyes just now." The person whose eyes stabbed like a knife hurt, and that person had calluses on the tiger's mouth and index finger on both hands, and it seemed that he was a master who could shoot left and right" Xie Xiuyun looked at Zhao Zhi's back, and his eyes became more and more profound.
"You ,,,,, like this" Xie Xiuyun whispered in the black suit's ear for a while, then waved his hand to let the black suit leave. Xie Xiuyun kept looking at Zhao Zhi, and Zhao Zhi also felt that someone was watching him, so he didn't look back, and sat on the edge of the gambling table pretending not to know anything. "This gentleman, you are the 10,000th guest of our casino, and this is a gift from our casino" A very pleasant-looking waitress handed Zhao Zhi a tray covered with a red cloth.
