"The general idea has been completed," Zhou Yan sighed softly, "The decline of martial arts, the main plot focuses on the period from Boxing to the Anti-Japanese War."
"Oh," Master Ba's eyes lit up, "Where is the core of creativity?"
"Why did martial arts decline?" Zhou Yan smiled slightly, "The core purpose of practicing martial arts is self-denial. If you can't guard yourself, how can you guard your kung fu?"
"That's true..."
At noon, Zhou Yan and Qin Ruoshu had a feast of Cantonese cuisine at Master Ba's house.
However, when the two left in the afternoon, they ran into some trouble and were spotted by paparazzi, a "specialty" of Hong Kong.
As soon as the car got out, Zhou Yan felt that there was a car following him from behind, and the person in the passenger seat behind kept taking pictures.
Zhou Yan didn't know that he was being targeted by the paparazzi, so he drove directly to the dock, boarded the ship and left...
"The paparazzi in Xiangjiang are really annoying." After leaving Xiangjiang, Qin Ruoshu was still full of resentment. "And the ordinary people here in Xiangjiang don't know where they get their confidence. They look down on mainlanders..."
"There's no point in getting angry with a group of strangers..."
After leaving Xiangjiang, we headed straight to Haojiang.
Although Haojiang is known as the gambling city, the local residents are much kinder than those in Xiangjiang.
After landing, in addition to the freshness, the two of them felt a faint sense of peace that they had never experienced in Hong Kong.
After standing on the side of the road for a short while, Frank's team responsible for covering the Golden Scissors had already delivered the car to the two of them.
"Zhou Da, the hotel has been booked. The Grand Lisboa Hotel, the lotus-shaped one opposite..."
What a familiar name!
Although Zhou Yan once traveled around the world in the mission world, Hong Kong and Macao were blind spots.
Fortunately, Haojiang is not a big place, and the golden lotus shape of the Grand Lisboa Hotel is really easy to distinguish.
After checking into the hotel, the two of them walked around the entire city in the car, and then went to experience the most famous tea restaurant in the area.
In the evening, back at the hotel, Qin Ruoshu watched TV dramas, while Zhou Yan contacted the Dongxin salvage ship floating in the South China Sea via satellite phone.
The location of the sunken ship given by Zhou Yan is accurate. Among the items that can be salvaged, the most common ones are daily porcelain: bowls and plates...
"Mr. Zhou, did you do this on purpose? Why do you always get good things when you go to sea in person?"
On the salvage ship, the only one who dared to openly confront Boss Zhou was the foreign girl Hannah.
"Do you think it's easy to locate the coordinates of the sunken ship?" Zhou Yan replied rudely, "What's more, there are still good things in the porcelain you salvaged..."
"Where?"
"Those white Guanyin statues behind you," Zhou Yan smiled helplessly, "those are Dehua white porcelain..."
"You know, I left Professor Chen on the ship..."
"Okay, there is plenty of space on the ship anyway. Keep everything you salvaged. I will identify it for you later..."
"That's pretty much it," the foreign girl's face softened a lot, "Oh, by the way, I forgot to tell you, those divers picked up a dead old clam..."
As she said that, the foreign girl looked at the camera with a smile: "I'll keep it for you. When you and Qin have a child, it can be used as a bathtub..."
"I accept your good words..."
The next morning, when Zhou Yan was taking Qin Ruoshu to eat, he accidentally discovered that there seemed to be a report about himself on the newspaper rack at the front desk of the hotel. He went over to take a look...
"The second generation of mainland rich people invested in Ba Ye's new film, which is suspected to pave the way for his girlfriend!"
Zhou Yan and Qin Ruoshu both wore large sunglasses and were more careful when going out. Therefore, in the photos taken, it was basically impossible to distinguish their facial contours.
"What are you looking at?"
Qin Ruoshu was a little curious, so she went over to take a look, and then pouted: "Why are these paparazzi in Xiangjiang talking nonsense?"
"Daughter-in-law, there is no need to get angry with these people..." Zhou Yan put the entertainment periodicals back on the newspaper rack, "Today we are going to experience the local characteristics..."
Haojiang's characteristic entertainment project is naturally gambling, commonly known as gambling.
As soon as he entered the gate of the entertainment city, Qin Ruoshu was attracted by the rows of slot machines with different shapes and colorful colors.
"Boy, these are the free chips from our entertainment city..."
The pie falling from the sky made Qin Ruoshu confused. He turned around and hugged Zhou Yan's arm: "Brother, this..."
"The free ones are the most expensive!" Zhou Yan smiled slightly, "Just wait a moment and you'll know what's going on..."
For Zhou Yan, who has an abnormal memory, playing cards is the most cost-effective way.
When Zhou Yan pulled Qin Ruoshu to a gambling table, the last gambling game had just ended. The croupier put away the old playing cards and opened four new decks of playing cards.
"Handsome beauties, over here..."
The middle-aged dealer was slightly happy to see the young man holding the free chips.
The gambling game begins and the dealer deals the cards.
The opening card was a K of Hearts, and the second card was a Q of Hearts. There was no need to turn over the cards, and Zhou Yan lost the intention to continue playing: We are also new customers after all, why don’t we give you a little taste?
In the second game, Zhou Yan still failed to get good cards.
In the third game, Zhou Yan's luck finally came: he opened with a jack...
Seeing Zhou Yan push the chips out, Qin Ruoshu was a little surprised: "Brother, like this..."
"Licensing!"
The second one is ten...
The chips in front of Zhou Yan doubled several times.
In the next half hour, Zhou Yan deliberately controlled the winning and losing, going back and forth to turn the chips in his hand into hundreds of thousands.
Then, Zhou Yan was invited to the high-end venue to play stud. Qin Ruoshu watched for a while, and his head quickly grew bigger...
"Brother, I'm going to play outside..."
"Be careful!" Zhou Yan took a large handful of chips from the table and stuffed them into the eldest lady's hand.
Zhou Yan has no love for gambling, but he couldn't resist a group of money-splitting boys who took the initiative to stuff money into Zhou Yan's hands. In just five games, tens of millions of dollars in chips had already been gathered in front of Zhou Yan...
In the hall outside, Qin Ruoshu had already lost all the chips in her hand, and around her, many tourists who were playing "games" with free chips had begun to pay out of their own pockets.
At this time, Miss Qin realized that free chips were not so easy to get.
After winning a large amount of money, there were no casino thugs blocking the door, but instead there were staff who took the initiative to help exchange the chips.
The two of them had another amount of funds in their small treasury.
After playing outside for more than a month, Qin Ruoshu almost forgot that she would soon be a senior.
Finally, I couldn't bear the call from Qin's father and Qin's mother. It arrived...
Seeing that time was no longer enough for the two of them to drive the speedboat back to Dongyang, they had no choice but to leave the Feiyu in Haojiang, take a flight back to Xinhai, and then return to Dongyang.
School was about to start, and after returning home, the two of them discovered that there were still many things waiting to be dealt with.
On the National Day of 2009, the house for which the two parents paid a deposit was officially sold; the location of Xinghan Group's new semiconductor factory still needs Zhou Yan's personal approval; autumn is about to enter, and the autumn clothes of Jinxiu Weaving Room
, haven’t started designing yet…
"The head is big!"
Of course, the real "trouble" is yet to come: it is rare to go to school in the same city, and Miss Qin hopes to enjoy the trip to school with Zhou Yan...
