Chapter 0383 – Provocation (II)

“It’s fine, old brother Zhuang. If you don’t take it, you’re not treating me as a friend! Ask them, any friend who comes to this gambling ship, I am offering 50,000 chips, but if you lose it all, then you’ll have to spend your own money to buy it again.”

Zheng Hua’s hand still stopped in mid-air, and did not shrink back, a you do not continue I will not move posture, he said the words are also half-true, only some of the VIP he thought, will be presented chips, after all, although their family has shares in this gambling ship, but these chips, but to his own pocket.

“Brother Zheng, good intentions are appreciated, but this gambling money, it’s better to use your own. By the way, how do I exchange chips here?”

Zhuang Rui smiled, his relationship with Zheng Hua was not close enough to this point. Although he didn’t rely on the power of his grandfather’s family, Zhuang Rui also didn’t want someone to take himself to task in the future, after all, taking someone else’s hand is soft, in case this Zheng Hua if he asks something of himself in the future, then to help or not to help ah?

“Oh, old brother you and Ouyang old brother is really a temperament ah!”

Zheng Hua saw Zhuang Rui insisted not to accept, so he put back the chips in his hand, last time Ouyang Jun came, he also preferred to pay his own money, but also did not accept his chips, Zheng Hua understands in his heart, the higher the status of the person, the more will not be free to accept these small favors from others.

So Zheng Hua didn’t care, brought Zhuang Rui to the chip exchange office, said: “Here you can use cash to exchange chips, you can also use the cashier’s check of the Swiss bank, by the way, the mainland in Hong Kong if there is a banking institution’s check, it can also be used.”

“Bank of China’s checks are also allowed?”

Zhuang Rui is studying finance, naturally knows that the cashier’s check of the Swiss bank, refers to the bank note issued by the Swiss bank that promises to pay unconditionally, and can be used as cash internationally, he just didn’t think that the check of the Bank of China can also be used, if that’s the case, the 30,000 Hong Kong dollars (coins) that he specially prepared yesterday can’t be used.

“Of course you can ……”

“Well then, exchange fifty thousand dollars in chips for me! Well, make it two ten thousand, four five thousand, and all the rest are just one thousand.”

After getting Zheng Hua’s affirmative reply, Zhuang Rui took out his checkbook and wrote a check with a face value of 50,000 yuan and submitted it to the exchange office. Zhuang Rui had just seen that the chips Zheng Hua handed to him had several colors, and guessed that it might be the same as the movie staged, with different denomination and different colors!

Sure enough, things are the same as he thought, the staff inside after checking the check, from the window to launch a thin stack of chips of different sizes.

Zhuang Rui took in his hand to look over, the bottom of the two 10,000 chips, both thickness and size, than the above 5,000 1,000 chips are a little larger, and the outside is also plated with a layer of transparent hard plastic, the production is very delicate.

Zheng Hua saw Zhuang Rui in the side of the flip-flopping in the hands of the chips, out of the mouth said: “Zhuang old brother, these chips can be specially made, there are anti-counterfeiting mark, the casino does not ask you the origin of the chips. The casino doesn’t ask where your chips came from. You can exchange them for cash.”

“Grabbed chips are also allowed?” Zhuang Rui recalled the movie he had seen before and couldn’t help but ask.

“Of course they can, but they have to be able to snatch them, and also, they have to be bold enough to exchange them if they’ve snatched them!”

Zheng Hua smiled at his words, not to mention, the armed forces on this gambling ship can almost be compared to a small battleship, except for the lack of heavy artillery, the rest of the light weapons are everything, howitzers are quite a few, there is no such thing as that pirate arm that dares to come and rob.

Like casinos and other places, the armed forces are very strong, Macau casinos opened so many years, every day from the circulation of funds are hundreds of millions of dollars, also did not see anyone dare to go to the robbery, like the former Hong Kong’s Zhang Ziqiang Yip Huan, holding an AK dared to shoot at the street and the police, can be described as a tough guy, right! Go to Macau is also honestly pay money for chips, simply do not dare to be crazy.

Of course, there are some small gambling stalls will often spread the news of being robbed, but that are some of the local punks organization, even if you can grab the chips, to give or not to exchange it, for people like Zheng Hua, those small gambling stalls every day to be robbed is a good thing, save the source of the diversion of the well!

“Xuan Bing, I’ll give you half. Let’s go for a spin.”

Zhuang Rui divided half of the chips in his hand and handed it over to Qin Xuan Bing’s hand, turning back to Zheng Hua, “Brother Zheng, I won’t bother you, Xuan Bing she knows the rules.”

“Okay, then you let go and play, call me if something happens.”

Zheng Hua nodded, he has done enough today, and Zhuang Rui also led the love, and then accompanied by the next appears to be a bit of a loss of identity, no matter how to say, Zheng Hua is also the crown prince of Zheng’s jewelry!

Walking in the hustle and bustle of the hall, Zhuang Rui heart a little happy, it feels like back to the country in general, ears hear basically are Mandarin, see now the rich people in the country more and more.

“Zhuang Rui, what are you going to bet on?”

Qin Xuan Bing saw Zhuang Rui with a silly smile on his face, all the time he was walking along with the flow of people and didn’t lean towards those gambling tables, he couldn’t help but ask strangely.

“Just anything! I won’t anyway.”

Zhuang Rui grew up in addition to the street corner to see those with a broken bowl to bet on stones, but also really did not come into contact with the word gambling. Liu Chuan’s parents and Ouyang Wan although the son of the tube are relatively loose, but for gambling, is to catch very strict, Zhuang Rui memory of the only time on the buttocks by the mother to beat, is to play poker won ten dollars to take home to show off that time.

So Zhuang Rui although the aura in the eyes can see through objects, but he also just go to distinguish jade antiques, never thought to use this ability to gamble to make money, even if the hand is now short of money, and came to the casino, he also just want to play with luck, and did not use the meaning of the ability.

“Xuan Bing. That side is lively, let’s go there to play.”

Zhuang Rui suddenly saw that in front there was a long table with two ends exactly the same, the center part was empty, inside stood three people, then around those three people in a circle, placed more than a dozen swivel chairs, beside the swivel chairs was even more surrounded by people, very lively.

Qin Xuan Bing took a look and said, “That is baccarat, you will also play?”

“Baccarat?” Zhuang Rui repeated a sentence, then said with certainty: “Will not play.”

Zhuang Rui’s words said Qin Xuan Bing cried and laughed, won’t play what you put together, but see Zhuang Rui has squeezed through, she can only follow behind.

Zhuang Rui squeezed to the front of the table to observe up, he found the table above fourteen numbers, each number corresponds to a person, but from twelve directly jumped to the fourteenth, turned back and asked Qin Xuanbing a sentence to know, dare to say that this foreigners are superstitious, that thirteen is not auspicious, so the fourteenth player into the fifteenth seat.

In front of each swivel chair there is a betting area, respectively, three betting area, written in Chinese above the banker, the player or draw.

Zhuang Rui looked at the side for a while, coupled with Qin Xuanbing’s explanation, slowly understand the game of baccarat, this baccarat generally use eight decks of cards, each deck of 52 cards, excluding the big and small king.

After the dealer shuffled the cards in the distribution box, the player in the distribution of cards before choosing which side of the betting area pressure, can only be in one place pressure bets, pressure after the bets began to send the cards, the banker and the idle two sides will receive at least two cards, but will not be more than three cards.

According to the rules of baccarat, the party whose point total is closest to nine wins, and the Player wins: one for one, and the Banker wins, also one for one. However, a five percent commission is deducted from the winnings, commonly known as the draw. If the total number of points is the same for both sides, then the tie-breaker wins, and the odds are one to eight.

The algorithm of the card point is: the flower card (J, Q, K) and ten point card are counted as 0 point, the ace card is counted as 1 point, and the card point of each hand is equal to the single digit of the sum of the card point of each card, that is to say, if you have got a 9 and an 8, the final point will be 7 points after adding 9 and 8.

“Xuan Bing, let me play.”

Zhuang Rui looked at a moment later, a little eager to try, just beside him a person chips lost finished leaving, Zhuang Rui hastily sat up, picked up the hands of the chips to the table to look up.

This watch others play, and their own play, the feeling is really different, Zhuang Rui just watched from the side, still know how to bet, but now to his own, holding the chips do not know where to put.

“Betting away from the hand, friends want to buy seize the time to place a bet, will soon be dealt ah!”

Standing in the center of the lottery officer yelled up, Zhuang Rui heart a little anxious, took a piece of chips, did not look at the denomination, directly into the betting area on the word “and”.

“Zhuang Rui, how do you buy ‘and’ ah? The odds are very low, huh? You also bought ten thousand?”

Qin Xuan Bing saw Zhuang Rui’s action, quite a bit of groundless, this is also too amateur right! Although it is said that the odds of pressing “and” are very high, if the pressure is successful, 10,000 will become 80,000, but that kind of chance is very low.

Qin Xuan Bing looked at the innocent Zhuang Rui, helplessly said: “Well! Maybe we’ll be able to buy a hit!”

“Xuan Bing, do you think he’s Han Bo? What do you think he is? There aren’t many chips, so be careful of having to change them after you lose.” Zhuang Rui had wanted to ask if he could re-bet, when the voice called Niu Hong’s gloating voice suddenly came from his ears.

From Zhuang Rui they entered to the gambling hall, Niu Hong paid attention to, just Zhuang Rui has not been on the table to bet, Niu Hong did not find the opportunity to taunt Zhuang Rui, and now see Zhuang Rui pressed ten thousand yuan to the draw, almost to his big teeth have laughed off.

“Zhuang Rui, it can still be changed, it’s okay for you to change your pressure.” Qin Xuan Bing pulled Zhuang Rui’s sleeve.

Niu Hong was really like a fly on the wall, fanning the flames on the side, “Yeah! It’s not too late to change it now, but it won’t work later.”
