401. Please help me, Mr. Little Red!
Please help me, Mr. Red!
"Please help me, Mr. Xiaohong!"
Jo Twilight struck the pose of Nobita in Doraemon.
"It should be convenient for you to make money, right?"
Su Hong glanced up and down at Qiao Dui.
"Just go out and find someone to borrow some money, and people will agree."
He still remembers Qiao Dui's [Dating Handbook] that kind of anti-natural social ability.
"Then what's the matter, Xiaohong, if someone else's family doesn't have so much money, or if it's life-saving money, then wouldn't I be harmful."
Qiao Duan said to Su Hong seriously.
"Indeed."
Su Hong wondered why this person was suddenly so serious.
"That's it, I'll take you to the casino later, most of the people over there are rich people, as for how much you can earn, it depends on your creation."
"Are rich people all bad people?"
Qiao Du asked again.
"Didn't you come to the old city before, the rich people here either made war money, or they made a fortune by speculation after the war, if you want to say that you are making money in business, then there may be, but you will definitely not squander it in the casino."
Su Hong explained, handing a newspaper on the table to Qiao Dui.
Qiao Twilight picked it up and saw that the text translated by the Chosen One game was writing a case.
Probably a worker at the wharf because the ship was overloaded, the goods were too heavy, and he was exhausted for a while, causing the goods to fall into the canal, he himself was injured and couldn't stand up, and then the owner of these goods wanted to sue the workers and ask him to compensate tens of thousands of yuan, and the wages of the workers were only a few hundred yuan a month, where could they afford to pay for it, and the union also ruled that the accident was mainly because the ship was overloaded, and the owner of the goods also had to bear some responsibility, but the owner of the goods found the Black Axe Gang to press step by step, and finally, Forced to commit suicide by throwing his family into the river, even the body that was fished up was sold by the owner of the goods.
Such cases are everywhere in the old city, the war ended briefly four years ago, although the external enemy is still there, but at least now, the internal warlords have temporarily reached an agreement, external resistance, the two countries have been in a stalemate since last year, the old city as a prosperous city in the rear, naturally less war, more peaceful.
"Now the people in power in the old city are rebels, these people have been resisting the oppression of the warlords before, and have won the support of many people, but I didn't expect that after the rebels entered the old city, they gradually degenerated, and began to collude with the local rich squires to collect money, which is no different from when the warlords were divided."
Su Hong explained on the side.
"At that time, the rebels relied on a tragedy that happened in the old city hotel, the city was chaotic, and the defense was empty, and in the first period, it did ban casinos, tobacco houses, and green buildings, but it didn't take long for these places to be re-established in the name of teahouses, hospitals, and painting boats."
"No wonder!"
Qiao Du said that he was in a teahouse when he came, and he was playing mahjong, and it turned out that this teahouse was synonymous with casinos.
"When are we going to paint the boat?"
He was eager to try.
"What are you going to do there?"
Su Hong frowned.
"Social Observation."
Qiao Du was right.
"Forget it, let's go to the casino, there are a lot of people and a lot of money, I can't make a few million more."
Su Hong thought about it for a while, and chose the former between spending a little more effort and Qiao Du provoking some more moths.
"Xiaohong, you are such a good person, even if I die in the future, I will think of saying a few more good words to you in front of Lord Hades."
Qiao Twilight is grateful to Dade.
made Su Hong feel that this might be Qiao Duan's original purpose.
In the evening, the two left the Old City Hotel, recruited a rickshaw, and came to the south of the city.
Qiao Du took a good look at the buildings here.
The architectural style here is generally dominated by buildings, with ten-storey buildings concentrated in the east of the city, that is, the area of the Old City Hotel, and the south of the city are all three- and four-story buildings, but relatively new, apparently, rebuilt after the war.
"Here!"
The rickshaw driver shouted.
Qiao Du and Su Hong got out of the car and saw the building in front of them.
"Heming Teahouse."
The door of the three-story building, which looks like a hotel, hangs the sign of "Heming Teahouse", at this time it is late, but the building is brightly lit, and there is a faint noise, and there are two men wearing black windbreakers and hats standing at the gate, checking whether the passers are carrying weapons.
"Let's go."
Su Hong led Qiao Du forward, and the two gatekeepers quickly stopped them.
After checking it, I didn't find any problems.
The two were able to walk in.
"This casino is manned by Inhumans, who are responsible for protecting guests, dealing with troublemakers, and checking to see if anyone is using supernatural abilities."
Su Hong whispered to Qiao Dui, and at the same time gestured to several corners of the hall with her eyes, and inside stood a man in a black suit, staring vigilantly around.
"Then you still dare to make money here?"
Qiao Du asked rhetorically.
"As long as it's not discovered, it's not a good idea."
Su Hong pointed forward, and Qiao Du saw that the hall was full of gambling tables.
All kinds of ways to play are readily available, Qiao Du can't name it, in contrast, the teahouse when he came this afternoon can indeed only be said to be a mahjong parlor.
At the entrance, there is a place to exchange chips, and a little farther away is the self-service meal that Qiao Dui has in mind, as long as you exchange chips, you can enjoy free food, which is also a kind of casino promotion.
Su Hong took out a wad of banknotes and exchanged 200,000 chips at the front desk.
"Two hundred thousand, so much money."
Qiao Du just read the newspaper and learned that the monthly salary of Cao Gong is only a few hundred yuan, and the income of those ordinary people is estimated to be about the same, 200,000 yuan is equivalent to the money they have earned in more than ten years.
"Give you 100,000, you can use it leisurely, I'll go over there first."
Su Hong handed half of the chips to Qiao Dui, and went to the side where she was playing.
Under the influence of the [Law of Conservation of Character], Su Hong won money very simply, on the way, a stranger in a black suit approached, wanting to find evidence of Su Hong's thousands, but he stayed for a while, watching Su Hong win two more games, but he got nothing.
Su Hong doesn't win all the time, he occasionally loses some inconsequential small games, and never wins the biggest, at first glance, he is just a gambler with good luck, but after a few rounds, his original 100,000 chips quickly became 300,000.
"Not coming, not coming."
Su Hong accepted it when she saw it, picked up the chips and prepared to transfer to another table.
It's called sustainability.
You can't just stare at a sheep.
If you make too much money on one table, you probably won't have to make it next time.
At this time, Su Hong found that the other side of the casino became noisy, and she didn't know what was going on.
He leaned closer.
