Chapter 213 Gambling Anecdotes Old News of Macao City
Southeast Asia is a land of tigers and wolves, a place where dragons and tigers roar and wind and clouds meet. The main population is Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Indian, Javanese, Madura, Filipino, Thai, and several other major races.
There are thousands of ethnic minorities, and it is a multi-ethnic mixed area. Small forces and big warlords are intertwined. Anti-Chinese, anti-Japanese, pro-Taiwan, and all kinds of ideological and political parties are competing for power and jealousy in front of and behind the scenes because of their interests.
, or bloody killings, using all possible means. This place is related to the shipping lifeline of China's rise. No one believes that the Chinese authorities do not pay attention to this area. Li Huqiu can conclude based on what Dong Zhaofeng said, where the Chinese authorities are
The secret management and arrangement took more than one day. Otherwise, Dong Zhaofeng would not have such detailed information on Nanyang martial artists.
Li Huqiu invited Dong Zhaofeng to go to Yongcheng to treat Zhang Yongbao. The old man agreed without any hesitation, saying that as long as Li Huqiu could help him take leave. This matter was a trivial matter for Li Yuanchao, and Li Huqiu could easily solve it with a phone call.
After making arrangements for Dong Zhaofeng's itinerary, Li Huqiu rushed to the courtyard of Liang Sihan's family without stopping.
Wang Mao went with Yan Yu to prepare for the auction, and Li Huqiu personally went to ask Liang Sihan to take care of all the treasures salvaged from the sunken ship. Among them were three heavy weapons and the rare treasure Suiwai Pearl. Old
After seeing the eleven intact national treasures and the thirty-nine damaged national treasures, Mr. Li was so excited that he burst into tears. He immediately contacted his old friend Ma Sanye. Li Huqiu said that after restoration, all thirty-nine artifacts would be donated to the public for a fee.
The Palace Museum. The reason why it is sold but not dedicated. In Li Huqiu’s words, if the thief does not take advantage of the situation, there is no reason to pay for it even if it is a cabbage price. Liang Sihan and Ma Sanye both said that this is appropriate. Li Huqiu also said this
The restoration work of the national treasure was so huge that the two old gentlemen couldn't bear to worry about it, so they decided to give one to each of them after the restoration. Liang Sihan shook his head, Ma Sanye waved his hand, and the two old gentlemen expressed their determination not to do so. They were already over seventy years old.
As an old man, being able to witness this grand event in the cultural relics world and have the opportunity to personally participate in it during his lifetime is enough to comfort him for the rest of his life, and he cannot hope for anything else.
Liang Sihan then asked Li Huqiu how he planned to place the Suihou Pearl? He also said that it was a national treasure and a special cultural relic that was on the national list but had never been owned. Li Huqiu told him that the assistant to the chairman and deputy general manager of Fude Hall
Miss Xiao Luoyan has already decided on the ownership of this orb, and it will be sent to the warehouse of the Yanjing Ford Hall branch soon. This is the price of a man's freedom.
In Duobao Building, clay porcelain jars and scraps of bronze utensils are piled up in the backyard. They are all scraps of dilapidated cultural relics collected in the past. Although they were worthless long ago, they have been kept by Wang Mao.
So far, I never expected that these things would come in handy. These are the best materials for restoring antiques. Li Huqiu was determined to follow the work, but his busy schedule seemed to add to the chaos. Liang Sihan vaguely pointed out that there are specialties in the art, Huqiu
His skills were overkill for this job. Li Huqiu scratched his head and squatted in front of Ma Sanye without moving. Wang Mao, who came back from outside to help, was not as polite as the old gentleman. You are the master, this is a rough job.
It's not you who did it. Go somewhere to cool down and stay indoors.
During dinner in the evening, Dong Zhaofeng was invited to the house, and Nina showed off her skills in cooking. She studied Shandong cuisine and Huaiyang cuisine. The little foreign woman is very strong and weird, and her little brain is very clever. She also loves cooking.
Youjia, although he only studied for more than half a year, he has already mastered the true inheritance of Gong Baoyi, the master of Shandong cuisine. After eating the first dish of sea cucumber roasted with green onions, Dong Zhaofeng joked that Gong Baoyi, an old boy, could not keep his skills even after he arrived.
In his circle, he is known as the number one gourmet in Beijing, and he is very familiar with the famous dishes of famous chefs in Beijing. Gong Baoyi's nine-turn large intestine and braised sea cucumber with green onions are known as the best in Shandong cuisine, and this dish of braised green onions cooked by Xiao Nina
The taste of the sea cucumber is comparable to that of Naishi. Naturally, it won Master Dong’s praise. After a while, another large boiled dried shredded dish was served. This dish is famous for its Huaiyang style, which uses shredded tofu as the main ingredient and uses various fresh soups to create the flavor.
The dishes are equally delicious and only 30% of the original flavor is consistent with the texture, which is the essence of Huaiyang cuisine that emphasizes freshness and original taste. Xiaonizi is very particular about learning these two major cuisines. The reason why Li Huqiu is so
The arrangement is because Shandong cuisine is a food culture produced in the Yellow River Basin, and although Huaiyang cuisine is named Huaiyang, most of the ingredients come from the Yangtze River, so it can be called a representative of the food culture of the Yangtze River Basin.
A meal was a lot of fun. Li Huqiu suddenly said: "I'm going to Macao to help a friend in a few days. She has a boat and there is a chef missing on it. Little Nina doesn't really want to You have learned enough to be a chef. Come with me."
Everything was ready for Duobaolou's auction. When the east wind blew fiercely, Li Huqiu had already brought Xiaoyang Pozi and Xiaonan brother to Nanyang again. The Free Society was handed over to Shenyang, Qiu Tian assisted, and the casino had Shuai Wu and Duobao. There was Wang Mao in the building. One day in early September, Li Huqiu, the big shopkeeper who had given up his hands, appeared leisurely at the Aocheng Pier.
He Luosi and Chen Huiqi happily welcomed the three of them onto the Kapok, like little birds. After introducing each other, He Luosi handed a document to Li Huqiu and said: "From today on, the Kapok is yours. This is not what I meant, but He Bin gave you a special gift to thank you for helping our family win back the Linda Princess. You are not allowed to refuse." Li Huqiu thought that He Luosi must have put a lot of thought into this, and couldn't bear to object. He never cared about money, neither what he gave to others nor what others gave to him, so he nodded and accepted it. He Luosi was overjoyed and said with a smile: "Okay, from now on Kapok's surname will be Li. "Li Huqiu said that I don't know how to sail. If I have a boat, I have to hire a captain. Chen Huiqi smiled and said that talking about navigation skills, Brother He Jiu is ranked second among the young ladies in Aocheng, and no one dares to be ranked first. Nina What do you do when she says she is the captain and I cook? Only then did He Luosi realize that the pink and jade-like doll that Li Huqiu had brought was actually a little cook. She considered herself a sex partner, and since she met Nina, she I had a vague feeling that this little foreign woman had an agenda for Li Huqiu, but she didn’t ask out the question because of her face and the principle of non-interference. At this moment, she heard Nina introduce herself to her family, and she hurriedly agreed to show her goodwill and for the sake of happy cooperation in the future. "That's right, what do you want a grown man to do?" Li Huqiu said with a smile: "For you to worship and take care of me, I am mainly responsible for eating, drinking and having fun. Last time you led me to see a dog fight, someone made trouble in the middle, and the result was the most wonderful. Part of it was missed.”
The bustling Macao City in September is the peak season of the year. The dog fighting ring is packed with people, and the atmosphere is so enthusiastic that it seems to overturn the lid. The famous dog Ba Bei, who has won the dog king showdown seven times, appears on the stage. This triggered a heated discussion. Li Huqiu asked He Luosi, "Which dog is Babei's opponent tonight?" He Luosi smiled and said: "Yamamoto Isoroku!"
This was the first time for Nina to watch this kind of game. Although the little girl came from the church, she was not afraid of the bloody cruelty of this game. In the previous back-up game, Li Huqiu and his group were the ones she called the most fun, attracting everyone around them. A lot of attention was paid to her. After Babe appeared on the stage, she became even more excited when she learned that this was He Luosi’s dog. At this moment, she was jumping to her feet and shouting slogans such as Babe must win. But unexpectedly, she unknowingly got into trouble. .
A well-dressed Japanese young man came to them and scolded Nina, but was slapped unconscious by Li Huqiu. In their opinion, this was just a minor incident and not worth worrying about at all. So they didn't care at all. The Japanese young man was helped away by his companions and still enjoyed the fierce dog fighting match.
The two fighting dogs in the field were facing each other, baring their teeth and letting out low roars to threaten each other. Both dogs were experienced pit bulls, and Babei was obviously stronger than Yamamoto Isoroku. After looking at each other for a moment, he was the one who took the lead. Unable to bear his temper, he pounced forward and bit Yamamoto Isoroku's neck hard. Yamamoto Isoroku didn't care. He tilted his head and tried to push the babe away, but it didn't. Then it jumped violently. Open, allowing Babei's sharp teeth to open a gash in its flesh. After Babei was shaken off, his fighting spirit rose and he pursued him. Yamamoto Isoroku didn't just dodge, he looked at the right moment and shot a cold arrow, and bit him hard. It hit Babei on the lower part of his neck.
When Nina saw this, she only thought that Babei was about to be defeated and die, and she screamed in fright. While looking at it, He Luosi explained to Nina: "Don't worry, Babei's skin is very thick, and the bones are the hardest among fighting dogs."
, it has encountered this situation many times. Biting the neck of a fighting dog may not necessarily lead to a winner. The most important thing is to see which fighting dog has good physical strength, strength and rich fighting experience."
The speaker had no intention of listening, and Li Huqiu's heart moved. He suddenly remembered that Tulawang injured Zhang Yongbao. That Tulawang was just like Babei now. Even if he had the upper hand in physical strength and strength, he would suffer a little loss for a while.
He was at a disadvantage, but as long as the fight lasts longer, he will defeat his opponent sooner or later. What if Zhang Yongbao was replaced by me? Li Huqiu asked himself, secretly feeling that if he didn't fight this person quickly, he would definitely lose.
The two fighting dogs in the field have been fighting fiercely. Their canine teeth collided, their teeth and lips were bitten, and their blood spattered everywhere on the stage. The two dogs were still biting each other madly regardless of their lives. The crowd was looking at each other in confusion.
When he had finished shouting, the little devil who was stunned by Li Huqiu's slap came back. He came straight to Li Huqiu and the others. Standing two meters apart, he pointed at the tip of Li Huqiu's nose and said loudly: "Chinese people, come out!
"Who do you think that is?" The little devil followed Li Huqiu's finger and tilted his head. With a snap, he was slapped to the ground again. But this time, he did not deliberately slap the acupuncture point on his lower jaw, so he did not fall unconscious.
But two teeth were knocked out. He looked up to see who had beaten him, and saw Li Huqiu sitting there steadily, as if he had never moved. People around him could see clearly that it was Li Huqiu who had slapped him just now.
The slap was just too fast. By the time the kid turned his head, he had finished the slap and returned to his seat. Everyone found it funny when they saw the kid's confused look, and they all felt happy. The kid got angry and cursed several times in his native language.
Sentence. Shang Nan asked Chen Huiqi what nonsense this guy was talking about? Chen Huiqi told him that the little devil was cursing people, calling us all pigs and bastards. As soon as he finished speaking, the humanoid robot Brother Xiao Nan rushed over and sprayed the little devil with his mouth full of feces.
The Japanese man fell to the ground. He wanted to fight again but was stopped by Li Huqiu.
The little devil who was beaten again got up and learned to be smart this time. He bowed first and then said in blunt Chinese: "You Chinese people say that the two countries will not fight without fighting. I am here to deliver the news. I represent the great nation."
The Asano family, a 500-year-old Japanese family, would like to inform you that Mr. Masao Asano would like to ask you to go out for a while!"
Li Huqiu was amused in his heart when he saw his servile look, and laughed and scolded: "You've already finished talking like this, you bastard, you can talk like a human being after being beaten, go back and tell that Asano what a hero, you want to see me
Just come here by yourself, I don't have the time to wait for him."
The little devil bowed and left. Shang Nan asked strangely: "This guy is very weird. Why did he become more polite after being beaten?" A Chinese buddy behind him replied with a Jianye accent: "Little Pao."
Zizi is just like the dog in this scene, and he is more obedient than anything else." Li Huqiu and others couldn't help laughing again after hearing this. Seeing He Luosi frowning and saying nothing, they couldn't help but ask: "
What? Is it troublesome?"
He Luosi shook his head slightly and said: "No one in this land can cause us trouble, but if Masao Asano comes to participate in the Asian Gambling King Competition, it will be very troublesome."
"His gambling skills are very good?"
He Luosi nodded and said: "Yes, Asano Masao is Asano Shinji's uncle, nicknamed 'Heart Eyes', he was very famous in Nanyang in his early years, and his status in the Asian gambling world is even higher than that of He Bin.
Ye Li, the top player in Macao in the past, left in anger after competing for gambling licenses. I heard that he later went to Morocco to open a casino, where he also became a boss and was called one of the four gambling kings in the world. I
I'm worried that he came to participate in the Gambling King Competition." He added: "Ye Li was the partner of He Bin and He Xian back then. He was the first of the Five Heroes of Haojiang back then, and he was also my uncle. Now he lives in seclusion in Jakarta, and his business
His main business is gambling on the high seas, and even though he has been living in seclusion for many years, he is still respected as the world's gambling king!"
Li Huqiu asked curiously: "What happened to the Five Heroes of Haojiang?"
He Luosi stretched out his little hand, clasped it and counted the numbers: "He Bin, He Xian, Ye Zhenlin, Ye Li, and He Qigu, the five of them are collectively known as the Five Heroes of Haojiang. They were the best brothers back then. Ye Li and Qigu are the same age.
The youngest, he and his cousin Ye Zhenlin came from the mainland to meet brother He Bin. Ye Zhenlin and He Bin became friends, but Ye Li fell in love with He Bin's sister, He Qigu. Later, they had their own fate.
, have all become influential figures in Haojiang."
"Why did they get into this situation today?" Li Huqiu still remembered what He Bin said: There is no life-long brother, only a life-long interest. Ye Li ran away, and He Xian and He Bin turned against each other. There must be many reasons for this.
Hidden secrets known to everyone.
"Ye Li became a disciple of Taiwan Youth Gang tycoon Ge Qingzhu. From then on, there began to be differences in political views between the five people. He Xian believed that Macao City is close to the mainland and must have a good relationship with the Communist Party, while He Bin believed that Macao City is close to the mainland and must have a good relationship with the Communist Party.
Jianghu people have their own ways. Ye Zhenlin was originally the eldest among the five. Now he lives in Macao and is nicknamed Lin Bo. He is the most famous big shopkeeper in Macao. Ye Li helped He Bin and others win the battle with Masao Asano.
After the game, he left calmly and went to Jakarta to become the general representative of the Chinese Chamber of Commerce. He was also the world's number one tycoon in the boat gambling industry."
Li Huqiu thought that the five people were sworn sworn brothers and were close relatives. We could share the hardships in the past, but we could not share the blessings. He Luosi introduced the process in a few words. How many secrets were hidden behind the political differences?
This power is so powerful that it can dishearten a generation of underworld godfathers and become a shopkeeper, force a generation of gambling genius Ye Liyuan to leave Indonesia, and make close relatives He Xian and He Bin turn against each other.
This has been the case in the small city of Macao for ten years. How many such games are going on in the entire Nanyang region?
A middle-aged Japanese soldier wearing traditional Japanese clothes, wearing a short sword across his waist and wearing wooden clogs, led three young Japanese soldiers over. He walked straight to Li Huqiu, and a young Japanese soldier behind him took something from his arms.
Pay a handful of money and tell the person who was sitting next to Li Huqiu to buy your seat! When the person saw the money, he immediately became a fool. The little devil watched him get out of the way with contempt, and politely asked the middle-aged devil to take a seat.
.
Li Huqiu turned a blind eye and was still paying attention to the contest between the two fighting dogs in the field. Yamamoto Isoroku's tenacity and wisdom exceeded He Luosi's expectations, and at this moment he was still on par with Babei. Both dogs were
The skin was already broken and bleeding, and the yellow fur had long been dyed red. He kept making indomitable roars, as if two proud warriors met in a narrow road and fought to the death. Li Huqiu's blood was boiling and he was full of praise. He praised Babei.
He was powerful and praised Yamamoto Isoroku for his bravery and strategy. The middle-aged Japanese beside him suddenly said: "My dear, Masao Asano, a junior in my family died not long ago. His departure is a huge loss to the Asano family.
loss, but at the same time I am also sincerely proud of him. He is a proud man who can die but is unwilling to lose. He defended the glory of the Asano family with his life. As his elder, I was also defeated by others, but
I'm really ashamed to think about how shameless I am to live to this day, and now my brother has asked me to come back to avenge him, and I heard that the person who defeated him is a novice at the casino?"
Li Huqiu's eyes did not leave the dog fighting ring, and he responded in a long voice: "Shinji Asano committed suicide? Why bother? Yes, I am the novice, but I am not prepared to accept any challenge before the Asian Gambling King Competition.
, if you want revenge, besides the gambling table, you can also choose to use force to solve it, I am always waiting for you."
Asano Masao frowned, and Li Huqiu's dismissive tone made him very angry. He said in a deep voice: "Don't you know how to respect your opponents?"
Li Huqiu pointed at the two fighting dogs in the dog fighting ring and said: "It's called Yamamoto Isoroku, but in fact it has no blood relationship with you Japanese. It only got this name because of its cunning and bravery.
Even for a dog, I respect it for having such martyrdom. But for you, even if Asano Shinji committed seppuku in front of me, I would not bother to give him a word of praise, because in my eyes, your fight in the field is nothing.
Even worse than a dog, today's Japan is like the Manchu Qing government in the past. Although it is rich, its backbone has been broken. The garrison on Okinawa proves that you are not worthy of dignity!"
"Bagagaru!" A young man next to Asano Masao shouted in a low voice.
Li Huqiu glanced at him contemptuously and said: "Lian Jia Zi? Not convinced? My brother is also a Lian Jia Zi. You two might as well have a showdown later. If you win, I will immediately apologize and go to Asano."
Commit seppuku before Shinji’s grave!”
When the young man heard this, he was immediately eager to try. Asano Masao's face sank and he said solemnly: "Ono-kun, please don't make mistakes. Mr. Li's brother is already the ultimate figure in martial arts. Even the master of Karate Master Headquarters may not dare to say that."
Complete victory!" Then he said to Li Huqiu: "I once thought that I was the only one in the world who understood the ability of observing the situation with the mind's eye. I didn't expect that you and I are still comrades. Your spiritual will is very strong and admirable. We will meet soon.
Goodbye, farewell!" He stood up and left, followed by those who came with him.
He Luosi didn't understand Asano Masao's last sentence and asked Li Huqiu what he meant. Li Huqiu said: "This man is not a martial artist but has practiced a secret method to improve his mental will. His so-called mind's eye is the same as ours."
The martial arts master's power is similar. He observes things through his sixth sense. He observes every detail of everything at the gambling table. He has such ability and still loses to Ye Li. In the gambling world
There are also experts above us!"
The winner has been decided in the dog fighting ring. Isoroku Yamamoto died on the spot, but Babei only lived for a while longer. He was carried down by the staff when he was leaving. Not long after, someone sent a message and told He Luosiba.
Ba Bei died in the background. An earthen jar is hard to break away from the well, and a general is inevitably killed in battle. In the end, there is no winner except the one who suppressed Ba Bei to win. If you think about it carefully, those people may not be the winners.
, there will be no real winner in the end. What He Bin loses is the love of brothers, and what Ye Li loses is the fact that it is difficult to leave the hometown and reunite with relatives. Who can ask? I will never lose in my life and have no regrets.
He's family members ran to several people and reported to He Luosi: "Miss Jiu, the master went to the yacht club and is now waiting there for Mr. Li to drive away."
