Chapter 1417: A Man's Paradise, A Women's Bank
Macau is a special administrative region of China and one of the four major gambling cities in the world. It is known as a man's paradise and a woman's bank.
Gamblers who come here from all over the world every year can be said to be busy, whether in Hong Kong films or movies. It is full of the smell of money and the bloody wind of all kinds of rivers and lakes.
But in fact, this is a very developed tourist city, and the security of any developed tourist city cannot be too bad. Because law and order is the biggest nemesis of tourism.
A place with very bad public security, except for adventurers and tourists who do not know the height of the sky, it is difficult to become an extremely developed tourist city.
Macao is a world-famous tourist city, and with the economic development of the mainland in recent years, the number of tourists from the mainland has increased dramatically every year.
Therefore, all kinds of battles for turf, carrying watermelon knives on the street, or either sinking into the sea or chopping hands and feet.
It only exists in the movie, and the real Macau is very harmonious and safe, and it is also very prosperous and lively. It is a true city that never sleeps, the capital of desire and depravity.
It is difficult for people who come here to control their desires, and even those who don't usually gamble can't help but try their luck.
At the same time, the streets and alleys are full of gambling, and there is no scene of various mahjong parlors opening a street next to the storefront.
Since gambling requires a license, the small stalls that deceive people on the streets and alleys have basically been banned. Along the street are a variety of local food shops, coffee shops, and clothing stores. A wide variety of jewelry stores and luxury stores.
In addition to seeing various buildings from the collision of Chinese and Western cultures, you can enjoy the unique style of Macau. It's much more prosperous than you might expect from big cities like New York.
It's a real place to spend money, and of course you can still see some gamblers being thrown out of the casino. Because it's a city that can easily be degraded.
Yang Dongxu has been to Macau twice in his life, once when he was very young and needed to shoot MVs, and the other time because he was curious to pass by here.
Haven't really toured here once.
This time I wanted to play in Macau on a whim, one of the reasons why I won Hedong Garden before, as the original owner of Hedong Garden of the He family, Ms. He, made him quite the gambling king here in Macau.
The other is ...... Lee Fu-jin is pregnant.
Among the several women who have intersections with Yang Dongxu, except for those who suddenly jumped out of the night, only Chen Xin is not pregnant.
Chen Hong wanted to have a child before, but after that, he didn't know what to figure out and didn't mention the child again, and now he goes to Hollywood to take charge of Haina's branch.
In the past two years, there have been fewer and fewer things to manage, more to supervise, and then the rest of the time to travel. Like Ran Feifei, the world runs around, and sometimes the two of them run around together.
I don't know if this idea of not wanting children was infected by his aunt Ran Feifei.
In addition to her, among the remaining three women, Bai Qian, Li Fuzhen and Chen Xin, only Chen Xin is not pregnant, and Chen Xin is also the eldest of all the women in Yang Dongxu.
Although these years have been properly maintained, the years have not forgived people. In any case, crow's feet can no longer be concealed, and Chen Xin is very repulsed by the operation and injection of some hyaluronic acid on his face, and insists on the idea of natural old areas.
So even though Chen Xin looks much younger than his real age as a whole, Yang Dongxu can feel the burden of age in his heart.
So now that he has a period of free time, he decided to take Chen Xin around for a while, and it just so happened that he also wanted to come to Macau to have a look.
Compared with the city of Xiangjiang, Macau is an area he has never set foot in, or he has never wanted to get involved in the gambling industry.
In the past, most of the methods used to learn those gambling techniques with Old Man Xuan were still influenced by watching too many Hong Kong movies in his previous life. I feel like those flying cards or something are cool gambling thieves.
Now as I grow older, my personality is becoming more and more mature, and the thoughts and experiences of this life gradually cover everything in my previous life. For such a child-like personality, it has converged a lot.
So he knows how to make money in the gambling industry, but he doesn't have much interest. At the same time, this industry is also much more complex and deep than other industries.
Macau is indeed a tourist city now, but the gaming industry is the backbone of the city's economy. On the surface, ordinary people can indeed live in harmony, but the conflict of interests in the secret may be more exciting and cruel than the movie.
He is already profitable enough to do other businesses, and he is not afraid of anyone playing moths, so there is no need to wade into this troubled water to get his shoes wet.
Sunglasses, a sun hat, big pants, flip-flops, this is Yang Dongxu's current dress.
Chen Xin took off the serious professional clothes she usually wears, a floral dress, a small bag on her arm, a big sun hat and sunglasses.
The two of them are like an ordinary couple, strolling down the bustling street.
Ice cream, cold drinks, a small box of fruit, the two of them walked around and never heard of it. Didn't go to any brand stores and jewelry stores.
Just wandering around the small shops and some stalls on the street, the ten or twenty things felt very beautiful and bought directly, and the bits and pieces were not big, so even if they bought a lot, the handbag was only half full and was carried by Yang Dongxu in his hand.
"What do you think of this pendant?" Chen Xin's toothpick was inserted into Yang Dongxu's mouth, and he picked up a heart-shaped pendant hanging on the shelf in front of him with his fingers.
The pendant is tied with a red rope, and the heart shape is also the company's sense of transparency, but at first glance it is not a jade, it is estimated that it is a plastic.
However, the overall design is very atmospheric, especially the heart shape is very three-dimensional, a bit like a small peach, and it is not very big and looks very cute.
"It's good. Yang Dongxu took the fruit box in Chen Xin's hand, Chen Xin took out a tissue and wiped his hands, then picked up the pendant and shook it in front of him, the more he looked at it, the more he liked it.
"How much is this?" Yang Dongxu loosened a piece of cantaloupe in his mouth, and at the same time gave Chen Xin a piece to ask the boss.
The boss has a somewhat dark skin, and the stall is not fixed, carrying a flat pole and a wooden box with a wooden shelf on which all kinds of trinkets are blown.
It's a bit of a feeling like the older generation of small vendors walking the streets, of course, the dress must not be the style of the older generation, and the stall owner is dressed very decently.
This street is a folk street, so the shops look relatively old, so most of the items sold here are handicrafts.
There are also teahouses, as well as pawnshops, which have gradually disappeared in the mainland, and of course, some antiques are naturally indispensable, and there are stalls and shops.
“35。 The stall owner spoke Mandarin full of Austrian flavors.
"It's a little more expensive, can it be less. Yang Dongxu asked.
"It can't be less, this is bloodstone, bloodstone, you know, the best in jade is rare. The stall owner shook his head, his mouth flickering.
He kept looking at Chen Xin next to him, it wasn't that Chen Xin was beautiful, he wanted to look at it twice.
This look is obviously hinting to Yang Dongxu, such a beautiful girlfriend standing beside him, why are you so stingy as a man. How else do you pick up a girl?
Yang Dongxu obviously understood the stall owner's eyes, but he obviously didn't want to be the wrongdoer.
Besides, he and Chen Xin are both old husbands and wives, and they are not stunned, how can they be excited to pay money with a look from the old side of the stall.
"10 yuan, if you want us, we will buy it, and if you don't sell it, forget it. These little things we bought earlier are all at this price. Before Yang Dongxu could speak, Chen Xin spoke directly.
This price cut is even more than half of the meeting.
The stall owner glared instantly, and at this time, he also pondered the pair in front of him, obviously not a young couple in love, and it is estimated that it is not necessarily a husband and wife.
At this time, it is natural to change the routine, "No, no, this is bloodstone, look at this heart, it symbolizes your love, your girlfriend is so beautiful, you have to buy it to express your love for the beautiful girl, right?"
"That's 12 Okay, 2 more than the one I bought before, any more we'll really go, and I don't think you're the only one, there's also one over there. Yang Dongxu looked at the stall not far away.
They also sell these little bits and pieces and pendants or something.
"Okay, okay, I've sold it to you, it's really a loss. When the stall owner saw that Yang Dongxu and the two of them really wanted to go to the side, Rima agreed to come down.
Then Ran Feifei took out the money from her small bag, which was obviously a husband and wife. Otherwise, how can it be that a woman pays for a male and female couple shopping, and it is all men who pay.
The stall owner sighed that he had made less money, and when he reached out to receive the money, he was very neat. The plastic pendant that costs 2 yuan sells for 12, and this profit is already very satisfying for him.
"Is the cost price of this thing five yuan?" Chen Xin curiously fiddled with the heart-shaped pendant in his hand, and then tied it to his bag.
The bag is the kind that is good for more than 200,000 people, but how to look harmonious when the pendant is tied to it.
"Five cents, five cents is about the same, this is still the factory price, the cost price is lower. Then add the red rope, as well as transportation and customs clearance, the cost to the first-hand merchant here will not exceed 1 yuan.
Wholesale to such a hawker, five to two pieces is about the same, no more. Yang Dongxu said casually.
Now Hainan is also a national small commodity distribution center, Yu Feihong is the biggest boss in it, and he has a rough estimate of the price of these small things.
"So cheap?" Chen Xin looked a little surprised.
"What do you think? I saw that the silk scarves sold in the store over there were all under the assembly line, a wholesale of up to one yuan, and you could take it for 20 when you bought it, which was considered a small profit and quick turnover. ”
Chen Xin held Yang Dongxu's arm and smirked without speaking, pouting and asking for fruit to eat.
It doesn't matter if you're deceived or not, it doesn't matter if the price of the things you buy is high, what the two of them like is the atmosphere of shopping and the fun of bargaining.
