Chapter 70 The Gambling Ship Business
"You'll find out later."
Liu Qingzhong said with a slight smile, and then said to himself, "Today, it is to open your eyes." β
With that, the car stopped at a small pier in the harbor, where a speedboat was waiting.
I followed him with great vigilance, and in the speedboat I followed all the way to a big ship.
Judging by the appearance and the people on board, I have already surmised that this is a gambling ship!
The house was full of guests, and all kinds of brightly dressed people were gambling for money.
"Gambling boats?"
I couldn't help but ask, "What did you bring me to this place for?" β
"It's just an eye-opener."
Liu Qingzhong said and smiled, "If you are interested, you can go down and have fun." β
Hearing this, I immediately shook my head.
I'm not interested in gambling money.
It didn't take long for me to follow Liu Qingzhong to the upper floor, where a bearded man wearing sunglasses and smoking a cigar came to greet me.
"Secretary Liu, long time no see!"
"What about Mr. Tao? Who is this kid? β
He said as he took off his glasses and stared at me.
"This is my new acquisition, I can believe it."
Liu Qingzhong said, pushing me out and introducing, "Shen Fan, you have a bit of antique skills." β
With that, the bearded man led the two of us into a roomβa room dedicated to gambling.
I watched Liu Qingzhong play one game after another at the gaming table.
The handles are all wins, and the bearded man seems to be deliberately losing money.
"How about it, do you want to play two?"
Liu Qingzhong said that he invited me again, but I still refused.
"What the hell am I doing here?"
"If it's okay, I'd like to go back."
I said coldly, got up and was about to leave.
"Secretary Liu, it seems that your little brother doesn't like this way very much."
The bearded man said, taking out the check, "It's 32 million in total, all washed." β
That's when I realized that they were "trading"!
The bearded man deliberately loses money, in fact, he is paying.
"Let's take a look at the goods."
With that, I followed me back to the bottom of the cabin.
It's full of "big babies"!
I took out one casually and found it by the Cultural Relics Management Office...... Ranging from three to five years.
"Shen Fan, it's up to you, these things, introduce them to him."
I've been brought here, and I nodded slightly, looking at one by one.
In less than half an hour, I identified the entire shipload of about 60 "big treasures" with almost the same.
In order to make it easier for the bearded man to understand, I also did not say the number, but only told him the "year".
"This one is...... If it is found, it should be ten years in prison, which is the most valuable here. β
After reading the last one, I spoke.
"Hahahaha, this guy is very interesting!"
The bearded man smiled with a cigar in his mouth, "Secretary Liu, where did you find it?" I'd like to get one too! β
"This kind of genius is hard to come by."
Liu Qingzhong smiled and patted me on the shoulder, "It's all done, you can send it out with confidence, right?" β
Seeing this, I have fully understood that this so-called gambling ship is actually a smuggling ship.
Gambling is just an additional "entertainment", and the real purpose is to smuggle these national treasures.
"Where is the boat going?"
As soon as I opened my mouth, I realized that this was not what I should have asked.
"What, you're interested?"
In an instant, I felt the killing intent in the bearded man's eyes.
"I'm just curious."
"If these things are found, plus the gambling ...... upstairs"
I said slowly, "You'll have to choose how many bullets you want to eat." β
"Hahaha, you kid, I look pleasing to the eye, make an exception to tell you."
The bearded man was stunned for a moment, and then laughed, "These ships are sent abroad. β
Overseas smuggling is still a national treasure.
I held back any anger in my heart and acted calmly.
"I see, these days, there are still foreign countries accepting these things from us?"
"Then we have to increase the price several times, right?"
I smiled and pointed to one casually, "Just this one, can't you give 30 million to foreigners?" β
"Thirty million is the appraisal fee."
The bearded man looked at Liu Qingzhong as he spoke, "Secretary Liu, this kid is the first time, right?" β
"Just brought it in, just to show him the world."
Liu Qingzhong nodded slightly, "Since it's done, let's leave now." β
Saying this, I followed Liu Qingzhong off the boat and got into the dinghy.
However, on the way back, Liu Qingzhong personally drove the dinghy, which was very slow.
"How does it feel?"
After Liu Qingzhong slowed down again, he asked me what I thought.
"I don't feel anything."
I said coldly, "I'm not interested in gambling money. β
"I mean, how does it feel to be able to get more than 30 million at hand?"
Liu Qingzhong reiterated, "Of the 30 million, 10 million are yours." β
"Thank you."
I was silent after I said those two words.
"Actually, I know that the matter of the Cultural Relics Management Office in the morning should be directed and acted by you."
When I heard this, I instantly felt a chill in my back.
But I didn't make any excuses, I bet he was playing psychological tactics this time!
"If you don't believe me, you can throw me off the ship now."
"Or, you could have thrown me off the boat just now."
I said coldly, "Why not? β
"I know you too."
Liu Qingzhong said slowly, "Actually, you don't want to do these things, and I can understand if you deliberately report it." β
"Not really."
I shook my head and said, at this moment I understood that he was lying to me, "Believe it or not, it's up to you." β
"I've found the person you contacted Seventh Uncle."
"Are you going to continue to deny it?"
Liu Qingzhong said and stopped the boat completely and stared at me.
"I also want to know who I have arranged for Uncle Seventh here."
I opened my mouth calmly, also staring at Liu Qingzhong's eyes.
At this time, as long as I show my feet, Liu Qingzhong will definitely throw me into the water immediately.
"Lu Yunchuan is not your person?"
Liu Qingzhong slowly spoke, "He reported to the seventh uncle, didn't you mean it?" β
"Lu Yunchuan?"
I smiled, "He didn't want to work for me, so he ran to Uncle Seven......"
"Remember your calligraphy?"
"I used Lu Yunchuan as a blackmail to exchange it for the seventh uncle."
Hearing my words, Liu Qingzhong breathed a sigh of relief.
"That's what I said, but no one can prove it."
I looked at him, as if he wanted to continue to deceive me, "I can also think that you told Uncle Seventh to get things back." β
"Then there's no point, save yourself all these boring processes."
I shrugged my shoulders and smiled slightly, "Do you want to push me down, or do I jump myself?" β
I firmly believe that a person who sees such a resolute determination to die, Liu Qingzhong will believe it.
"Hahaha."
"It's okay, I was joking with you just now, don't take it seriously."
Liu Qingzhong smiled and patted me on the shoulder.
At this time, I also breathed a sigh of relief in my heart.
"About the same, I told Tao Ronghua too."
He added, "Pretty much like you, I believe both of you." β
"Secretary Liu, you have to be careful of Tao Ronghua."
