Qilu?Sumi?

When a place name and a person name were put together, another person appeared in my mind, Li Jianlu, the gambling king of Qilu.

Thinking of this, I immediately asked:

"Are you going to meet Li Jianlu?"

Qi Lan nodded.

"You have business dealings?"

I asked tentatively.

At this time, Qi Lan suddenly looked at me, but she did not answer me.

I know that this is the ethics of being a workplace person. Ｍ.

Even if it is not a commercial secret, it is impossible to easily tell others about the work content.

I took out a cigarette and lit it, smoked quietly, waiting for the waiter to serve the food.

For a moment, the atmosphere was a little awkward.

Qi Lan suddenly looked up and looked at me and said:

"Actually nothing is wrong, it's just that Li Jianlu has a lot of money to be whitewashed. So he asked me and Ma Murong..."

Whitening?

Two days ago, I just heard about Qin Sihai and I getting a money laundering with the underground money house, and today Qi Lan talked to me about the money laundering.

“How to wash?”

I asked.

"Li Jianlu chose two methods this time. The first is in our casino. The second is the auction house..."

Casinos and auctions? Can this launder money?

I looked at it in surprise, Qi Lan smiled and explained:

"Actually, it's not as complicated as you think, and it's not difficult to operate. Li Jianlu's money is all illegal black money. He doesn't want to get it outside, but also wants to use it in the mainland. He wants to find some backpackers, each of them brings money to pass. He brings the funds to the casino and transfers it to a fixed account. Li Jianlu goes to Haojiang and opens a VIP room to start gambling. Take Honglan as an example. He can place bets at the same time as the cash in his hand and stops. As for the point where the dealer pumps water, it's just a matter of whitewashing. This fee is much lower than the average money laundering. Finally, the funds can be used openly when they return to China. If someone checks the source of the funds, it's good to win in Haojiang. At most, they will pay some taxes and fees, which is very low..."

(Bar: 1. There are many backpackers. In some villages in Guangdong, people in villages are all used as backpackers. 2. The personal income tax of about two thousand years is so low that it can be ignored. This is also one of the most common methods used in many money laundering at the beginning.)

"But Ms. Cen told me that we only provide VIP rooms for this kind of thing, and he will do nothing else. Ms. Cen's eyes are long-term. She cannot push our casino to the edge of the law because of Li Jianlu..."

I heard it a little curious and asked again:

"What about the auction?"

"The auction was carried out by Ma Murong and his family. The Ma family is both a ban and an underground bank in Haojiang. It is not difficult to operate. For example, let Li Jianlu produce several artworks, antiques, calligraphy and paintings, etc., even fakes. This is responsible for publicity, making the outside world mistakenly think that these things are worthless. Finally, using Li Jianlu's black gold to buy these things. At that time, Li Jianlu's funds will become the income from selling artworks. However, this method has a higher commission. I don't know what he and Ma Murong talked about..."

Qi Lan's words made me open a new door again.

I always thought that the money they earned from building a casino could be used openly. I didn’t expect that there were so many statements here.

Qi Lan's phoenix eyes stayed on my face again.

"Xiao Liu Master, you should also pay attention to this kind of thing. Now it seems that no one cares about it. But when your funds are getting more and more and more complete, you will sooner or later be targeted by the officials. So, you must also prepare for the future..."

I nodded.

The waiter served the dishes, and we both ate and chatted.

Qi Lan seemed to be very interested and talked to me about his experiences in Haojiang.

The boss who lost money, the gambler who wanted to jump off the building, the gambler who smuggled by swimming, etc.

It took a while before she put down her chopsticks and wiped her mouth elegantly with a napkin.

Looking at me, I suddenly asked a question she had asked me:

"Xiao Liu Master, do you like me?"

My hand holding the chopsticks couldn't help but stop.

Do you like it? If you like it, what's the use of it?

She is now Miss Cen's right-hand man, and I am still a cheater who is wandering around the world and is determined to take revenge.

Two different worlds are destined to have no result.

Seeing that I didn't answer, Qi Lan suddenly laughed.

What's different from before is that when she asked me such questions, she smiled sadly when I refused to answer them.

And now, she smiles calmly and confidently.

"Xiao Liu Master, let's meet again. Can I give me a gift?"

"What gift?"

If I could do Qi Lan's request, I think I would not refuse.

Qi Lan was silent, she looked at me foolishly. After a while, she said slowly:

"After arriving in Haojiang, I figured out a lot of things. I think both men and women should have their own careers, not be affiliated with anyone, and regard others as their own support. I don't think I will get married again in my life. But, I want a child..."

ah?

I was stunned.

child?

In my limited cognition, the word child seems to have nothing to do with me forever.

If it is necessary to say that it is related, the child may be like Xiaoduo.

I never thought that one day I would be a father.

I'm afraid, and I can't take this responsibility.

Seeing that I didn't say anything, Qi Lan was still as calm as water and said leisurely:

"Xiao Liu Master, don't rush to answer me, it's not this time. When you suddenly figure it out one day, it's not too late to answer me!"

As she said that, she took out a room card from her bag and pushed it in front of me.

"I'm going to see Donghengtai in a while. I'll go back to the hotel at about ten o'clock. Go and find me, okay?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Qi Lan cleaned up and said:

"I have bought the order. I will deal with the private matter first and wait for you!"

As soon as she finished speaking, she turned around and left gracefully.

Holding the room card, he looked at Qi Lan's slim figure.

For a moment, I was caught in a conflict.
Chapter completed!
