Chapter 38 No money in pocket

Huang Laoxie circled the car, and then directly took off the license plate of the military vehicle. When the four guards saw Huang Laoxie taking off the license plate, they also imitated Huang Laoxie and removed the license plate of their own military vehicle.

Picked it off.

Huang Laoxie looked at the four uniformed guards and said, "Take off all your clothes and change into casual clothes."

These guards will carry a set of casual clothes with them in the car so that they can adapt to various occasions when performing tasks.

Underground casinos have a long history in Songshan. It can be said that wherever there are people, there will be gambling and pornography. This is determined by the dark side of human nature. Since the top brass of China have a deep taboo against gambling,

Therefore, even the most powerful people in China will not openly open casinos.

Everyone knows that casinos are huge profits, but everyone also knows that without a deep background and superb skills, it is impossible to even think about it. These high-ranking officials of the Huaxia Kingdom have mastered various political and class struggle methods.

In Songshan, martial arts and gambling have always been closely linked. Even in the early days of the founding of the Huaxia Kingdom, there was still a phenomenon of gambling on life - two enemies signed a life and death certificate to fight, and the dead party was not allowed to pass the law

means to solve the problem.

The folk customs in the martial arts land are mostly strong and simple, so basically not many locals participate in gambling. As a tourist city, Songshan attracts tourists from all over the country and even the world, not only the famous Shaolin Temple, but also Songshan Mountain.

underground casino.

This semi-open and semi-underground industry brings huge passenger flow and tens of thousands of jobs to Songshan every year. Coupled with high taxes, the Songshan Municipal Government has adopted a default attitude. On the one hand, it strengthens public security management,

On the other hand, we will severely crack down on small underground casinos that have no background and are fraudulent.

Therefore, these underground casinos in Songshan are large and formal in terms of scale and management.

The casino is basically not open during the day and only opens at night. Huang Laoxie looked at the smiling receptionist at the door and couldn't help but snorted heavily.

"You guys, go play and don't stop me from winning money."

"Yes, Chief!" Several people immediately dispersed around Huang Laoxie, seemingly just a few unrelated people.

"Wait a minute, which one of you brought money?" Huang Laoxie touched his pocket and remembered that he had thrown the tens of thousands of dollars into the drugstore, and now he was penniless.

Of course the four guards didn't know this. How could they bring so much money when they went out to perform a mission? They could only bring a few hundred yuan at most, but how could they bring enough for this old man to gamble?

"Fuck!" Huang Laoxie swore in dissatisfaction and took off a jade pendant from his neck: "Go to the mortgage office over there and give me a million! Tell them not to break it. I will

I will still take it back, and the interest will still be calculated."

One of the guards took the jade pendant and walked quickly to the material mortgage office not far away.

Every underground casino will have such a material mortgage office. Because the local government severely cracks down on loan sharking, those who are addicted to gambling can only mortgage their valuable belongings.

All items will be retained for fifteen days. After fifteen days, the right to handle the items belongs to the casino. If the mortgaged items are taken away within the specified time, the management fee for the items and the gambling fee must be paid in accordance with the regulations of the casino.

Interest. Usually, after a watch worth 100,000 yuan is mortgaged, the money in the hands of gamblers will not exceed 20,000 yuan.

The material mortgage department is completely comparable to a bank.

Like the bank, the windows of the mortgage office are all made of bulletproof glass. Moreover, the security doors are double anti-theft and can even withstand small bombs. More than a dozen surveillance cameras monitor the mortgage office 24 hours a day without any blind spots.

The other warehouse is filled with large and medium-sized safes, used to store the mortgaged items of red-eyed gamblers.

Basically half of these mortgaged things will eventually be pocketed by the casino because they have exceeded the deadline. Let’s take a watch worth 100,000 yuan as an example. The money in the hands of the gambler is only more than 20,000 yuan, so this watch

If the casino resells it, it can earn at least 50,000 to 60,000 yuan, so this business has always been regarded as a top priority by major casinos.

Quite a few of these things are stolen or robbed. The only troublesome part for the casino is to communicate with the local public security department to prevent these things from being returned as stolen goods.

Therefore, major casinos contribute a sum of money to the local public security departments every year, and these departments turn a blind eye.

In the mortgage office, several people who looked like masters were chatting. Because the mortgage items were all kinds of things, these masters also had specializations in their crafts. Some were proficient in watch mechanics, and some had considerable research on gold and jade.

Seeing a young man in simple clothes walking over, a master in his fifties wearing glasses asked: "Young man, are you going to mortgage something or come back to ask for something?"

"Pledge something." The guard said expressionlessly.

"Oh? Then what do you want to mortgage?" the master asked calmly, but his eyes glanced at the other master sitting next to him.

The accent of this young man is that of a local. Locals rarely participate in gambling. Moreover, this young man has clear eyes and a calm demeanor. He does not have the aggressive attitude of a gambler or a thief.

How could he come to the casino to mortgage his things for no reason with that kind of shaky look in his eyes?

"I want to pledge a piece of jade." As he said that, the guard handed over Huang Laoxie's jade pendant.

The master wearing glasses suddenly felt a chill in his heart.

He is the master who appraises gold and jade. According to the unwritten rules of the casino, if a piece of jade is overdue and no one comes back to redeem it, then the master can get a huge bonus. However, the premise is that you can't make mistakes during the appraisal.

Not long ago, the master made a mistake. An ordinary piece of jade was mistaken for Hetian jade. Not only did he pay for it, but his reputation also suddenly dropped a lot.

Therefore, the young man in front of him who does not look like a gambler at all makes people even more suspicious of his motives.

"Young man, are you here to play by yourself? You are young, so I advise you not to mortgage these things. Small bets will make you happy, but big bets will harm your health!"

Naturally, the guard didn't know these twists and turns. Hearing the master's words, he just shook his head expressionlessly and said, "It's not me who wants to play, it's us... our relatives who want to play."

"Oh? Which one is your relative?"

Seeing the impatient look on the guard's face, the master quickly explained: "Young man, I don't mean to ask for details. This is the rule of the casino. In case we receive stolen goods but cannot eat them, we just carry them around."

The guard nodded, pointed to the dirty old man not far away who was standing on tiptoe to watch people placing bets and said, "That is a relative of our family."

The master felt relieved when he saw Huang Laoxie's appearance. Generally, enthusiastic gamblers who intended to mortgage things were unkempt and somewhat wretched-looking people. However, the master couldn't help but despise the jade in the guard's hand.

It's strange. Searching for real books on the site turns up nothing. Does this thing need to be given as a gift now?
