Chapter 171 Entering the casino alone, the tiger fakes the power of the fox
"Grandma! It's been a tough day today. I met a tough rooster and a house full of tough guys. As expected, I didn't even get a penny, and the mourner even gave me a slap in the face. Bah!"
In an alley in the west of Jiangdu City, Hua Yishang and his companions told about his unfortunate experience today.
"Hey, I said businessmen are all weird, and today I let you encounter it..." Beside Hua Yishang, a man with rotten teeth quickly shook the broken bowl on the ground. p>
"Open! Open!" shouted the scoundrels who placed bets on the dice in the bowl.
"Here you go! Ding! Get the money, get the money!"
"Grandma, I've lost it again!" Hua Yishang scolded and threw the copper coins in her hand to the ground, "Do it again! This time I'll bet half!"
This is the darkest corner in Jiangdu City, not just because of the activities carried out here. The silt in the area and the pickled filth mixed in the silt make this alley smelly, but the people in it are completely unaware of it.
Unconsciously, the fanatical emotions numbed the olfactory stimulation.
Next to this alley is the largest casino in Jiangdu, and the place is even more crowded. The gambling table smoothes the status difference between the rich young masters and the coolies. They gather around the dice and hemp cards, and play with the money that their ancestors robbed or use physical strength to win.
Leave the money gained from health to fate and wait for the moment when you become completely destitute.
When Jiangdu City was first built, it was a military town, and the city's jurisdiction was very strict. Such places were absolutely not allowed to exist. However, as the city was built without war for a long time, and with the development of business, casinos inevitably bloomed everywhere.
The people in this alley are all thugs employed by casinos, collectively called "watchmen." If no one is making trouble, they can take turns to come to this alley to make money and have fun.
"Open! Open!"
Two hits in a row, and the copper coins filled the pockets of the colorful clothes. Just when he was about to forget about today's bad mood——
"Guys, did you have fun?"
He quickly realized where he had heard this voice.
"You!"
He turned his back to his companion and saw the shopkeeper of Fengde Building standing in front of him.
"Guys, please don't bother me." Zhou Shi smiled and said, "I'll pick you up."
The gambling game came to an abrupt end, and Hua Yishang made a gesture and asked her companions to copy the guy.
"Changed your mind?" He sneered, weighing the wooden stick in his hand, "Weren't you upright at noon? Why are you soft now?"
Zhou Shi looked calm and said: "I'm looking for your boss."
"Did you bring any money? Pay the money with one hand and hand it over to the person with the other."
"I don't want anyone from your employer." He smiled, "I'll talk to your employer for a few words and then leave."
Hua Yishang was stunned: "Aren't you here to redeem people?"
"No, my boss hasn't paid off the debt, so how can I leave? Are you willing to cancel it all?"
"What a fool! Brothers, copy the guy!"
Upon hearing this, his companions took off the sticks and chains from the wall and showed them to the desperate shopkeeper with their teeth and claws.
Before he finished speaking, Zhou Shi said slowly: "Wait a minute, I just want money, right here."
He stretched out a fist, and Hua Yishang reached out to take it suspiciously——
Zhou Shi suddenly spread his fingers and slapped Hua Yishang's face with a palm!
"Woo!"
This moment made his vision go dark, and he didn't even notice that he was kneeling on the ground.
Before his knees even touched the ground, Zhou Shi's figure dwindled and he had already arrived at the side of Rotten Ya. Without looking, he punched Rotten Ya in the face, then twisted his body and released his leg again.
A thug fell.
The strength of the incoming attacker caused confusion among the thugs, but they were all professionals, adhering to the tactic of "taking advantage of the number of people to fight randomly, and if they failed, they would fall to the ground and pretend to be dead." They all swarmed towards the unarmed Zhou Shi.
A fat man rushing in front raised a wooden stick as thick as his forearm and struck him high. Unexpectedly, he raised his hand and waved, and the fat man's wooden stick became shorter. Almost at the same time, a force hit his abdomen,
The fat man leaned down in pain and fell into the mud.
Fatty's defeat first frightened the thugs. Their tactics were useless in front of Zhou Shi, who could defeat the enemy with one blow, because they didn't want to take that hit.
"Don't fight?" Zhou Shi smiled and avoided the muddy water splashed by the fat man, "Very good, I just have something to do with your boss, I don't want to embarrass you. Who will inform me?"
The thugs thought for a moment, and one of them said: "This man, I will take you there."
"How wonderful this is! I'm done with my work."
Zhou Shi followed him out of the alley, and none of the thugs dared to stop him.
They walked into the casino through the back door, instead of going upstairs, they went underground through a secret passage.
"Our mourning master is here."
and the guard
It's underground again... Zhou Shi sighed secretly as he faced the corridor in front of him. After the battle at the feudal king's tomb, he developed a psychological resistance to the underground.
A space was dug out under the casino, which may be used to store the casino's huge funds.
There are doors on both sides of the corridor, and women's moans and men's screams can be heard from inside the doors.
Well, obviously it’s not just for this purpose...
In just a short while, the boss of Jiangdu Casino, "Sang Men Huan", the boss of Jiangdu Casino, sat in front of Zhou Shi.
"Who is this grandson?" Sangmenhuan asked the thug who brought Zhou Shi here.
"The shopkeeper of Fengde Building, he said he has something to do with you..."
"Mourning my dear brother, I have looked up to you for a long time."
Sangmenhuan is not that big, especially compared to the two thugs standing on his left and right. Although he shaved his head and grew a long beard, he does not look that scary. Compared to the big guys, this one is closer to an ordinary person.
thugs and gangsters.
"Fengde Building?" Sangmen Huan read the word twice, "I remember, your boss is keeping me here. This guy is really good. When he gets on the gambling table, he is like a baby seeing breasts. He is so cool.
, I gambled all day long. I fainted from hunger several times and was carried out by my people, but as soon as I woke up, I came back and continued gambling... Did you bring the money?"
"No, you can buckle him as long as you like." Zhou Shi got tired of answering the same question over and over again, "I want to ask you something."
"You didn't bring him?" The fat on Sangmenhuan's face shook twice, and he showed a mocking expression, "You didn't bring him, what are you doing with me? Come here, give him two sticks and drive him out."
"I belong to the Fifth Master! Do you dare to move?" Zhou Shi shouted.
The word "Fifth Master" exploded in the room, causing the two strong men to stop their movements.
Obviously, including Sangmen Huan, they are all afraid of this name.
"Wait a minute, which fifth master?" Sangmen Huan's face wrinkled.
Zhou Shi sneered: "Which fifth master? Pier Du fifth master!"
This shocked Sangmenhuan. The leader of the Qinglong Gang, Master Du Wu? He is the leader of the entire Jiangdu underworld, the big boss who controls the dock! This kid is actually from the Qinglong Gang... Wait a minute, he is not Feng De
Is he the shopkeeper of Lou? Is there a scam?
"Aren't you the shopkeeper of Fengde Building? What's your relationship with the Qinglong Gang?" Sangmenhuan said with squinted eyes, "I can tell you, Du Wuye's name is not something you can use just because you want. If you dare to pretend to be powerful,
You don’t need to do anything, the Qinglong Gang’s people are enough for you to drink a pot!”
"Oh, Sangmenhuan, you are a local snake in a casino, and you think you have gone to heaven? I, Fengdelou, have always been on good terms with the Qinglong Gang, and we have constant business dealings. The Fifth Master asked us to sell our food to the dock. You said that we and
What’s the relationship with the Qinglong Gang?”
This... Sangmen Huan felt even more hesitant. Hearing what the shopkeeper said about having a nose and eyes, even if it was made up,...
If it was true, wouldn't he be detaining the owner who had direct dealings with Master Wu? He couldn't afford this!
"Don't believe it? Then let's go to the dock right now, and Master Wu and I will confront each other. Can we leave?"
"Uh, no, no, no, why should we alarm the Fifth Master with this matter?" Sangmen Huan softened and said, "I don't want him anymore, you can just take him..."
"I'm not here to redeem people, don't mention this to me again." Zhou Shi said coldly, "I have a few questions to ask you."
"You said."
"My boss has been missing for four months. Has he always been here with you? Who does he associate with?"
