In the southern suburbs of Jinling, there is a high-walled courtyard, a castle-like building.
This place is built against the mountains. The parking lot in front of the door is comparable to a domestic 5A scenic spot parking lot, and it is more than enough to park a thousand private cars.
From the parking lot to the gate, there is a post every five steps and a sentry every ten steps. They are all security personnel wearing red work uniforms.
The security measures are even more exaggerated than those at some military sites.
There are small bridges, flowing water, dancing shadows of trees, and a waterfall hanging on the top of the mountain in the distance. The scenery is unparalleled.
If an uninformed person came here, they would think it was an excellent scenic spot.
However, those with knowledge know that this is the Chitian Casino, the largest underground casino in Jinling and even in the entire South!
Here, you can play mahjong and poker, dice and Pai Gow, dog and cock fights, and underground boxing matches.
It is exactly what Bai Haocun said. There is nothing you can't think of, and there is nothing that is not found here.
This is one of the largest gold-selling caves in Jinling, and even in the entire South!
At this time, inside the high-walled compound, there was an open-air dog fighting ring.
I saw two huge vicious dogs standing at the east and west ends of the dog fighting ring, with iron chains tied around their necks, staring at each other eagerly, grinning and drooling!
One of the dogs was very strong, like a lion, with long brown hair almost dragging on the ground. It was the extremely famous Tibetan Mastiff. It kept making powerful roars that were frightening.
The other dog is a Kangal dog with white short hair. Although it is not small in size, it looks much leaner than the Tibetan Mastiff.
Although this Kangao dog does not look as ferocious as the Tibetan Mastiff, it does not show any timidity when faced with the Mastiff. Instead, it has high fighting spirit and keeps making a sound like a bellows from its throat, which is very scary.
people.
There were hundreds of people surrounding the dog fighting ring at this time.
Each of these people looked well-dressed and glamorous. Many of them were even famous figures in Jinling City and surrounding provinces and cities, and they could be seen in news reports.
During the day, they are excellent entrepreneurs and admirable leaders in the industry. They are well-dressed and polite.
But at night, when I came here, everyone was full of animality and gambling desires.
Everyone knows that the so-called integrity and kindness, the so-called positive energy, are just pretending to be seen by ordinary people.
It's just a tacit understanding.
At this time, the dog fighting match has not officially started yet, and these people have already started betting crazily. The smallest bets are in tens of thousands, and those with big bets start with millions.
On a high platform, there was a young man sitting in a wheelchair, staring at the dog fighting ring below.
A middle-aged man in a suit with neatly combed hair stood beside Xiahou Xiang and said with a smile: "Young Master Xiang, this Tibetan Mastiff looks fierce enough, but it is not a vegetarian. If you want to play with it, I suggest you buy it.
it."
"Come on, I've been playing with dogs since I was five years old. There's obviously something wrong with this Tibetan Mastiff today. Others can't see it, but I can. I'll buy a million Kangal dogs."
After several days of recovery, Xiahou Xiang could not walk yet, but he could almost speak. He sneered when he heard the words, revealing a brand new set of high-grade porcelain teeth.
"Okay." The middle-aged man smiled, stretched out his hand, and a staff member came over immediately.
"Remember, it's like buying a Kangal dog worth 1 million less."
"I understand, Manager Yu."
The staff immediately placed a bet on Xiahou Xiang through a handheld tablet computer and withdrew.
Xia Houxiang turned his head and asked, "Manager Yu, where is Zhuchan? Why haven't you seen her?"
The man whose real name is Yu Jianming smiled and said: "The young lady and sister-in-law should be on the other side of the arena where humans and tigers fight. The highlight is tonight. They are making final preparations."
"Yeah." Xia Houxiang nodded and looked at the dog fighting ring absentmindedly.
Yu Jianming chuckled and said: "Young Master Xiang, with all due respect, you couldn't catch up with my lady before, but now that you're like this, I'm afraid my lady won't even look at you."
Xia Houxiang's face suddenly darkened and he said coldly: "Manager Yu, are you laughing at me?"
In Jinling, there are not many people who dare to be so straightforward in front of Xiahou Xiang, and Yu Jianming is one of them.
As the general manager of Chitian Casino, it is not an exaggeration to say that Yu Jianming is Zhu Yeqing's right-hand man. He is also the second-in-command of Jinling's underground forces. Although the Xiahou family is powerful, Yu Jianming cannot be afraid of them.
"Young Master Xiang misunderstood, I didn't mean to laugh at you."
Yu Jianming smiled and said: "Young Master Xiang should know that my young lady likes strong men the most. Now that you have been beaten like this, it is best not to let my young lady see you first, otherwise it will damage your image in her mind.
"
Xia Houxiang said in embarrassment, "I know! I'm just here to play today and have no intention of meeting your lady."
"Haha, it seems I'm talking too much. Don't mind, Mr. Xiang."
Yu Jianming laughed and turned to ask: "But Mr. Xiang, I heard that the person who beat you also killed your second uncle? Why haven't you taken revenge for this? With all due respect, if you don't take revenge,
The Xiahou family will become a joke among the people of Jinling."
Xia Houxiang said in a cold voice with a solemn face: "Don't worry, that guy will die in an ugly way soon!"
At this moment, a man came towards them: "Master Xiang, Manager Yu."
The two of them turned around and saw that the person coming was Xiao Yuan from the Xiao family.
"It's Young Master Yuan." Yu Jianming showed a polite smile.
Xia Houxiang's expression also softened a lot, he nodded and said: "Xiao Yuan, you are here too."
Xiao Yuan walked over with a sullen face, stared at the dog fighting ring, and said to Yu Jianming: "Manager Yu, buy me a Tibetan Mastiff worth 1 million!"
Yu Jianming smiled and asked the staff to place a bet for Xiao Yuan, and asked casually: "Young Master Yuan, you seem to be in a bad mood today?"
"Yeah, don't mention it!"
Xiao Yuan waved his hand impatiently, and was about to say something, but closed his mouth and said to Yu Jianming: "Manager Yu, if you have something to do, go ahead and do it. Mr. Xiang and I will chat alone for a while."
"Okay, then I'll leave first. If you need anything, I can tell you anytime."
Yu Jianming smiled, nodded, turned and left.
Xia Houxiang knew that Xiao Yuan had something to say and asked, "What's wrong?"
"I saw Qin Changsheng today! The one who hit you!"
Xia Houxiang's eyes widened and he said angrily: "He came to Jinling?"
"That's right!"
Xia Houxiang asked: "Where did you see it?"
"Hospital."
Xiao Yuan shouted back, gritting his teeth and said: "This bitch has ruined my good deeds and brought me huge trouble."
"What trouble?" Xia Houxiang sneered and asked in confusion: "What can trouble you?"
Xiao Yuan took a deep breath and whispered: "I almost killed Bai Zhelin's wife."
Xia Houxiang's expression suddenly changed and he looked at Xiao Yuan in surprise.
Xiao Yuandao: "You have to save me!"
"Are you kidding me? Even if your father and I meet Bai Zhelin, they still have to call each other brothers. At least we can live up to our reputation. How can I save you?"
Xia Houxiang shook his head and said in a deep voice: "You can run away and go abroad to hide. I will ask my father and your father to find a way to calm Bai Zhelin's anger before you come back."
Xiao Yuan said angrily: "Hey, I don't want to hide! I feel embarrassed!"
