Chapter Twenty-Six: What Eats Is Black (I)
After Zhou Yu finished speaking, the thoughts in his heart were of course only a rough idea, he was not a person of this era, he could not fully understand the specific situation of this era, and he only had a prototype in his heart now.
He told Ip Man what he thought without reservation, and he also planned to see if Ip Man had any good suggestions.
Ip Man frowned when he listened to Zhou Yu's words, Zhou Yu meant that he needed Ip Man to help him, find twenty innocent people, no family and only sons, willing to serve the country, and teach this part of the people Wing Chun, when Zhou Yu will be of great use.
Zhou Yu didn't say that he was of any use, and said that he urgently needed these people.
It was January 1930, and it was not far from September 18, 31, so he asked to find these people as soon as possible and start teaching.
Ip Man was a little hesitant, because it was not difficult to find twenty people, but it was difficult to find twenty only sons who were innocent and had no family to worry about, and who could still serve the country and the people.
And he doesn't have the idea of teaching his disciples now, Zhou Qingquan, who is very familiar with him in the movie, asked him to teach his son, but he didn't agree.
So these two things seem easy, but they are not so easy to do, if he didn't look at Zhou Yu's enthusiasm, worrying about the country and the people, he would feel that Zhou Yu was deliberately embarrassing him.
"Brother Ye, I know you have difficulties, but you can teach these twenty people at ease, you only need to find your free time to come, and I will give them a gag order, and they will never be allowed to spread the word that you taught them."
Zhou Yu knew what Ip Man was worried about, he should be afraid that his martial arts would be learned by these people, and if he followed him to do bad things, it would ruin his reputation as Ip Man.
So he hurriedly explained, after all, Wing Chun is not a profound stunt, there are still many ways to learn this martial art on the rivers and lakes, as long as he doesn't pass on his Ip Man name, then it's fine.
"Brother Yu, you call me brother, I originally agreed to this matter, you don't have to worry, I will definitely support you, as long as you say that you will do what you say for the country and the people, then I am winning glory for the country, and I am afraid of any false reputation."
Listening to Zhou Yu's words, Ye Man also untied the dead knot on his brows, and his heart was also open, but he turned his head and asked some practical questions.
"It's just that these people must need money to sustain themselves, are you prepared?"
"Also, how do you arrange these people's families, have you made arrangements?"
"Since you said that the war is about to break out, then have you thought about the origin of your weapons, and you will definitely have to fight with the Japanese Kou when the time comes, but unfortunately I have a family and a family and only one son, otherwise I will definitely join the army!"
Ip Man is also passionate when he says, he is now young and vigorous, in the prime of life, and he is the most energetic and positive spirit, but he now has a family, a wife, and children, and he can't join the army as soon as his head is hot, and he has to consider a lot of life problems.
Zhou Yu listened to Ye Man's question, and he also thought about it in his heart, for the secular world, everything can be exchanged for money, so as long as there is enough wealth to open the way, everything can be done.
"Brother Ye, don't worry, I already have arrangements in my heart, you just need to help me find these twenty people, by the way, Brother Ye, where is the biggest gambling house here?"
Zhou Yu said that he already had an arrangement, and it was definitely not enough to rely on more than a hundred silver dollars on his body, but he could still use his mana now.
Although he can't use mana to deal with ordinary people, it is a piece of cake to use mana to sense the size of the gambling game.
As long as he is given some time, then it is not difficult for a hundred silver dollars to become a thousand, or ten thousand.
If he had 10,000 oceans, then everything would be easy to do, and what he wanted to create was a squad of twenty people, a special forces force like a wolf warrior.
Just like Yamamoto's special squad in Bright Sword, you can carry out a decapitation operation, and you can easily take down an enemy headquarters.
Besides, the knowledge of special forces in his mind now is countless times stronger than that of the anti-Japanese period, with him as the captain and Ip Man as the martial arts instructor, he still doesn't believe that this is not as good as the special team like Yamamoto?
If this can't compare to Yamamoto's kind of troops, then he might as well buy a piece of tofu and kill him.
Ye Man was a little puzzled when he asked about the location of the gambling house, but he didn't ask much, he usually went to entertainment when he had time, after all, there were no mobile phones and computers during the Republic of China, so places such as teahouses, gambling houses, and Qinglou could pass the time.
"Brother Yu, don't miss the business, the name of our largest gambling house is Caiyuandi, in West Street... I'm going to help you find someone, it's morning, and you go to the east of the city in the evening... I'll bring someone over to you. ”
Ye Man saw that he wanted to leave, so he could only tell him, he didn't want Zhou Yu to be greedy and misguided.
As soon as Zhou Yu heard this, he almost fell to the ground when he walked on the stairs, and Ip Man thought he was going to play.
When passing by the living room, he saw Zhang Yongcheng looking at him with a puzzled face, he could only nod awkwardly, as soon as he came, he tied someone else's husband to the chariot, which was indeed a little unauthentic.
As soon as he walked out of Ip Man's door, he went to the address that Ip Man said on West Street, and the most important thing now is to make money, otherwise all actions after that can only be empty talk, without the power of money, it will be like a castle in the air that will be blown away.
When he arrived at the door of the gambling hall, he only looked at the façade work of this source of money, which really lived up to the name of Foshan's first place to play.
The door number of this source of wealth is hung high, and there are colored lights, the gate is often opened during the day, and there is an endless stream of people coming in and out, and there are two big men standing in front of the door, five big and three thick, with a tiger's back and a bear's waist, wearing burlap clothes, and a body of tendons and flesh are exposed.
This pomp and circumstance is not an ordinary place, and it dares to open during the day, which has something to do with the above.
[It just so happens that the weapon thing is just right.] ]
As soon as Zhou Yu saw the form of this casino, he knew in his heart that this weapon could also be solved at the same time.
When he walked to the door, the two big men didn't stop him, and when he looked at his dress, he knew that he was not an ordinary person, and of course they wouldn't be bored with themselves.
As soon as you enter the casino, it is full of people, shouting, insulting, cheering, and the whole noise is a place where the noise occurs.
"Hey, okay, I'm in! I'm in!! ”
"Big, big, big!"
"Damn, I lost again, come again, this time I'm small, and I won't believe it!"
"Buy and leave, it's open!"
Some people cheer for winning the lottery, and some people are distressed about losing money, but after the dealer buys and leaves, whether it is a loss or a win, the person will hurry to press it again.
Because the winner will definitely want to win more, and the familiar person will want to win back, but the person who is deeply involved in this will never know, and the winner will always be the casino.
Zhou Yu looked at these people who had lost their souls and only knew how to follow the money, he shook his head, this is also a matter of being willing to fight and suffer, and he has no intention of saving these people.
Instead, he's here to win the casino's money, and let him be the winning party today.
He followed and squeezed into the crowd, released some mana, carefully "checked" the size of the dice on the plate, and then he silently took out ten silver dollars and quietly placed them on top of the big ones.
"Buy it and leave, it's open!!"
The dealer didn't know what was going to happen next, but he still opened the bowl with a happy face.
"Hey, 3, 4, 5, big!"
"Hit! I'm in! ”
Immediately, the people who bought the big ones were cheering, and the person standing next to Zhou Yu was flushed, and he raised his arms happily and shouted, holding Zhou Yu's arm and shaking.
"Brother, did you hear me, I was hit!"
"Uh-huh, you're in, you're in."
Zhou Yu silently collected the extra ten silver dollars, he had no choice but to deal with a few perfunctory words by this person.
The other half buys the small one, which is like a mourning exam, one by one, like a dead parent, languishing, watching the people who win money here show off, it is even more salt on the wound.
A penniless man who had already lost, his eyes were already red, and his fists were clenched tightly.
"I can win, I can win, as long as I have a little capital, I will win!!"
He muttered to himself, almost crazy, he was already in a quagmire and couldn't extricate himself, and then what he had to do was to go to the casino people to borrow money, borrow usury, and soon sell his son and daughter, and his family would be ruined.
"Ugh."
Zhou Yu could feel the man's behavior, but unfortunately he could only sigh, such practices in casinos were already commonplace, and they were commonplace, even if he saved one, there were still thousands of them.
He is not a god, nor an immortal, he can't take into account the feelings of so many people, and gambling is like this, unless he wakes up, others will never be able to redeem him.
So later, he could only leave a helpless sigh.
"Buy and leave!"
The banker's shouting began again, although it seems that they won more money in the last game, but they lost more money, so they will only make money and never lose money.
As soon as everyone heard this shout, they all bent down to bet, this shout was like a command, these people were like robots receiving orders, and they only knew how to press the money on their bodies.
After Zhou Yu finished induction, he still took out ten silver dollars and pressed them on the big one, his induction would not be wrong, because the number of points on each side of the dice would definitely be uneven.
There is only one big bump in a point, and so on in other points, as long as the dealer does not cheat, it will certainly not go wrong, of course, if the dealer does not cheat, it is not the dealer.
However, Zhou Yu has mana, and the dealer is good that he is not cheating, if he really cheats, it will definitely be interesting at that time, and then he will not be the only one who will win.
"Hey, 4, 5, 6!"
As soon as the dealer opened, it was big this time, but this time there were more people who pressed big, so this time the dealer lost a lot, but this is just to give gamblers some sweetness to taste, everything is under the operation of the dealer.
If you really want to win, or really win a lot of money, then the two strong men in front of the door, and the martial artists in the casino, are not decorations, and Foshan has never lacked thugs.
"You're really lucky, I wish the big guy to win countless more, buy it and leave!"
The dealer is a middle-aged man with small eyes, pointed cheeks, and a mustache, and he is not a good person at first glance.
As soon as they heard this, the crowd bent down again.
