Chapter 1186: The Venetian
Most of the street names in Xiangjiang are named after famous British figures, while the street names of Aumen are called after Portuguese military officers and dignitaries, or historical figures, and then transliterated in Cantonese.
For example, the "Avenida Admiral Admiral" and "Avenida da de la Admiral" that Han Xuan saw on the map at the moment, etc., are also named after street functions, such as the back street of the hospital, the alley of Crazy Hall, etc.
In addition, he also saw dozens of streets named after animals, such as Chicken Street, Duck Lane, Bird Lane, Dove, Eagle Circle, Mali, Lamb Circle, Pig Lane, Rabbit Lane, Oyster Lane, Python Lane, etc., which can almost open a zoo.
Aimlessly shopping, as time passes, the sun gradually rises, and after going to the Fortress to play, the group came to the A-Ma Pavilion.
Originally, Han Xuan was going to go to St. Joseph's Seminary and the Holy Church, but his grandmother believed in Buddhism, no matter what human affairs the Bodhisattva offered in the temple was in charge of, he always wanted to come to the temple to worship and ask for peace.
A-Ma is located at the southwest tip of the peninsula, facing the sea by the mountains, renovated from last year, just renovated this year, with red as the main color of the building, cornices and corners, with pure oriental colors.
Anya was very interested, took a camera to shoot, and told Han Xuan that he was going to paint a group of oil paintings with oriental themes.
When Guo Muzhou walked out, he received a call from He Gambling King, and the other party asked: "I went to the hotel to look for you just now, and the people in the hotel told me that you went shopping, where are you now?" ”
"Ma Ge here, I'm about to go down the mountain." Guo Muzhou replied to him that because of his regular exercise, he went shopping for a long time, and the old man's spirit was still very good.
“…… And you don't go out to sea to fish, what do you do there?
People go to sea to seek peace, they will go to Ma Pavilion to worship, I am a local, most of my life has never been.
I'm going to go for a ride on a yacht today, do you want to come with me? ”
Looking back on the half-day experience, he almost didn't play or see anything interesting, Guo Muzhou said: "Okay, where can I find you?" ”
"Wait a minute, I'll send a car to pick up ......"
The sun was hanging overhead, it was almost twelve o'clock in the afternoon, the Rolls-Royce team stopped at the dock, Han Xuan didn't pay attention to where he was going just now, and now he didn't know where he was.
Or the white yacht that went to Xiangjiang to pick them up yesterday, He Gambling King didn't bring his children and family members over, except for his secretary and entourage, only the staff on the yacht.
The old man is over 70 years old, and he is still coquettishly wearing floral shorts and a floral shirt, with a pair of sunglasses on the bridge of his nose, and the waiters are all beautiful women in bikinis.
Speaking of this old man, he probably inherited the European romantic cultural tradition, he has a total of four wives on the surface, countless lovers, as many as a dozen children, and many illegitimate children in secret.
Until 1971, Xiangjiang also continued to use some Qing Dynasty laws to allow concubines after marrying a wife, and it was even later in the case of Aomen, which was changed to monogamy more than a decade ago.
Due to the change of the law, only one wife of the rich people in Hong Kong and Macao can be regarded as a legitimate wife, and the others are just "girlfriends", but everyone knows what the truth is.
Most of the polygamy we see now is a legacy of history.
There are too many women and it is difficult to raise, there is only one person in the ordinary family, who is already complaining, without rich financial support, just eating can eat poor, and the wives of He Gambling King are the same as water and fire, and they don't like each other.
After getting on the boat and saying hello, He Gambling Wang smiled and said to Han Xuan: "This kind of sunny weather is the most suitable for going to sea, I brought a bottle of Mouton red wine from 1945, who wants to taste it?"
You came sooner than I expected, so you'd better wait another ten minutes.
This bottle of wine has been hidden since I was young, and I wanted to drink it on the day I turned 80, but today you have a good mouth......"
People think that Romanée Conti's red wine is the most expensive, but in fact it is not like that, among the new red wines, Romanée Conti is indeed the most expensive, but it does not have its name among the ten most precious wines in the world.
This 1945 Mouton-Rothschild wine is one of the most expensive wines, and the last time a bottle of Mouton of the same year was preserved and sold for more than $210,000 at Sotheby's.
Needless to say, it can be seen from the name that in order to celebrate the victory of the anti-fascists, a small number of red wines with "V" at the bottom of the bottle were brewed in small quantities, and there have been a lot of fakes recently.
Han Xuan said with a smile on his face: "Such a good wine, I must taste it, drink one bottle less, and when you celebrate your eightieth birthday, I will give you another bottle of good wine." ”
"Haha! In a few years, I should be able to wait, and at the beginning of the year, the medical doctor said that there was no problem.
Xiao Zhao, go move a few chairs here, the sun is too strong at noon, you'd better wear some sunscreen, otherwise it's easy to get sunburned......"
The drunkard's intention is not to drink, although He Hongshen is old, but his ambition is undiminished, he was supposed to negotiate a business today, but he temporarily put it away, and at this moment he tentatively asked Han Xuan: "The casino in Las Vegas, is the business good?"
Over the years, the Philippines, Malaysia, Thailand and other countries have also opened up their gambling industries one after another, and our business here has declined significantly.
I've heard that you're going to buy Caesars Palace, and you're going to open a casino in Washington State's Indian land, and you're going to invest a lot of money. ”
Add two pieces of ice and enjoy a small glass of red wine while the ice hasn't melted too much.
When Han Xuan heard this, he muttered in his heart, it was a well-known thing that he wanted to buy Caesars Palace, and he had sent someone to discuss it with its largest shareholder some time ago.
As for the casino on the other side of the Indians' own land, it has not yet been decided whether to build it or not, and there is no rumor, and the old man has now received the news, which shows that he is staring at the United States very closely.
Very unceremoniously, he added some wine to himself, shook the cup in his hand, and said to the gambling king: "The same, the Canadian government is preparing to establish a gambling city, and Mexico is also opening up, fortunately, the Americans have money, rely on their support, and the business is okay."
The shareholders of Caesars Palace are asking for too much, and I only buy a small part of the shares, not even five percent.
In March, I was approached by a new casino under construction and wanted me to invest a sum of money in them.
I think it's interesting, it's 35 percent stake for $600 million, and it's called The Venetian, and you'll be able to see it in two years' time. ”
He Gambling King felt more and more at this moment that he was just making a small fuss, and now the value of the entire Lisboa was less than 600 million US dollars, and Han Xuan invested 600 million US dollars, but only got 35% of the shares, which was very hot.
Pointing to the big island in the distance, he said to Han Xuan: "Lisboa is a little old, I plan to learn from Las Vegas and build a new casino on Taipa Island."
…… Han Xuan, are you interested in doing it with me? ”
