As soon as she boarded the boat, Ye Shuang realized that she had missed a big deal.
Zhuo Yuanhang's annual cruise ship event is famous all over the country, not to mention service staff and chefs. The hotel's internal training is enough to fill these positions. Captains and sailors are also hired for a long time. After all, cruise ships usually have Open it up for other uses.
But in addition to these people, Zhuo Yuanhang will also hire security personnel during the grand event... In any case, a boatload of rich and famous people gather together, and the security level can be as high as possible. Of course, the more reliable the security, the better.
I don't know if it's the level of Chaohai City itself or Zhuo Yuanhang can't find a way out. In short, from Ye Shuang's point of view, the security guards on the ship are of the same quality as the hotel security guards. There are cameras in public places and near the deck, and the patrol team of security guards is very neat. But it is more similar to a guard of honor. According to Ye Shuang's evaluation, the muscle density should not be high, and the muscles of the limbs are not well developed, obviously there is no explosive power... It is enough to deal with some small disputes and general disturbances, but just in case, this level can be taken casually A master can solve it.
"Mr. Zhuo, if there is an important feast next time, I can provide some good security intermediaries. Some have rich personal experience, and there are also teams. After all, there are so many important people, it is too rough to use hotel security as a supplement." Ye Shuang couldn't hold back. A text message complained.
Then the complaint was received by the assistant's mobile phone, and then the assistant passed it on to Zhuo Yuanhang. Zhuo Yuanhang took a look at the phone from afar, and Ye Shuang waved at him gracefully and freely.
Zhuo Yuanhang: "..."
Lu Shaoyue chuckled lightly: "Miss Ye and Young Master Zhuo also have contacts?"
"I've been in contact with you a few times." Ye Shuang maintained a ladylike demeanor, glanced at the boarding port, noticed that Han Chu and Ebner had also boarded the ship, smiled at them calmly, and then looked away: "Official The banquet just started tonight, I plan to go back to my room to pack my luggage, where is Mr. Lu?"
Lu Shaoyue pulled out his arm sensiblely: "Then I'll go back to the room to get some rest first, Miss Ye is in the first-class section A?"
Ye Shuang nodded with a smile, and Lu Shaoyue said with a smile: "Then I'll come to pick up Ms. Ye to the dinner party at night... Is 8:30 convenient?"
Since it is an invitation banquet, all board and lodging expenses during this period on the cruise ship are of course free of charge. The restaurant is a hotel buffet style. During the opening hours of the meal, there are various delicious meals and drinks on display for guests to take. It is also open 24 hours during non-meal hours, but you have to order and wait for what you want to eat.
The first-class cabin is on the top floor. In addition to the function halls and general cabins that star hotels have, the lower floors also have casinos, bars, swimming pools, gyms, spas, hospitals, opera houses, even cinemas and basketball courts, etc... Simple To use an analogy, the cruise ship can be regarded as a small society, where any functional building you can think of in the city is here, even including short-term interest training.
This cruise ship is not entirely a product of Zhuo Yuanhang's show-off of wealth and extravagant entertainment. Except for the annual banquet, the cruise ship will be used as a foreign tourist route at other times. Of course, the cost is higher than ordinary tourist routes. The consumption is basically concentrated on the cruise ship, so it is actually very profitable after calculation.
Zhuo Yuanhang holds such a banquet on the cruise ship every year. After all, it also means to build a reputation for his cruise ship. The higher the additional honors and the class of guests, the higher the standard of fees for tourists... The Four Seas Group is a tourist line After all, the time is not too long, especially for cruise travel. If you want to attract high-end customers who are willing to pay, they are commonly known as fat sheep. In addition to relying on time and experience to get a little praise, using high-end banquet news is the fastest way.
Ye Shuang didn't bring much luggage, anyway, the cruise ship didn't need much luggage, a few sets of clothes would be enough. The only things she brought besides clothes were wallets, mobile phones, computers... Even girls are so trouble-free, it is conceivable that Han Chu and Ebner will only save trouble.
So Ye Shuang hadn't sat in the room for a long time, and the two of them knocked on the door together to pay a visit.
"Hey! Did you know that there is actually a fried chicken set menu on this cruise ship." Ebner came in with a bucket of chicken wings, as soon as he stepped into the living room of Ye Shuang's suite, he went straight to the refrigerator to find a few bottles of Coke He came out and shook it proudly: "Coke with fried chicken, it's so cool, isn't it!"
"...you drink it yourself." Ye Shuang didn't bother to remind this guy that he just shook the coke can just now, and instead of seeing Ebner planning to open the tab, he turned his head and asked Han Chu: "What's the matter?"
Accompanied by the sudden screams and the sound of jet foam, Han Chu also nodded calmly: "It's not a big deal, just confirm tonight's itinerary... You should be Lu Shaoyue's girlfriend?! I know Lu Shaoyue in Jinghu City Shaoyue is not a simple character, and there should be many people communicating with him, but I hope that the rhythm of your schedule is controlled by you and not by him...or at least you must ensure that you cannot be taken away by his rhythm."
Ye Shuang nodded to express her understanding and acceptance. Since she had discussed that she would be responsible for cooperating with Ebner to contact other people, if she couldn't show up when needed, it would indeed greatly affect the expected results.
In other words, freedom of movement must be guaranteed.
Needless to say, Lu Shaoyue's status, there are several areas in the Celestial Dynasty that are the most difficult to infiltrate. International cities such as Beijing and Shanghai are one of them. Because of the developed economy here, the status of membership in the celebrity circle It is also intricate, and it is not easy to gain the right to speak in this kind of circle in the short term... Powerful people emerge one after another, and it is difficult for a company or person without a foundation to gain a foothold.
The other one is of course Jinghu City. This kind of place mainly pays attention to the background. In other words, it is to accumulate status based on time and experience. If you do not have enough qualifications, no matter how rich you are and how famous you are in other places, it will be difficult for you to be recognized by the locals. It is even as difficult to break into the circle of Jinghu City as it is to break into the circle of Beijing... If Ye Shuang hadn't directly attacked Lu Shaoyue and gained approval first, even if she had the best ability, she would not be able to let her go. The plutocrats club there admits itself.
Therefore, because of this, Beijing, Shanghai, Shenhai, Jinghu... the leaders in the circle of these four cities basically have a certain weight in the whole country, and it is not easy to meet each other in normal areas, and it is rare to have the opportunity of a cruise ship event, Lu It is conceivable how many people will covet and approach Shaoyue.
If Ye Shuang really wanted to be the other party's female companion throughout the whole process, she basically wouldn't have to think about doing other things during the four days and three nights. Meal invitations, regular visits, and "chance encounters" on deck were enough to fill the entire itinerary.
"Lu Shaoyue and I will only appear together at large banquets." Ye Shuang explained: "He will not deliberately invite me in private time. After all, we are friends. If he stays with me the whole time, the signal will be released. It’s too obvious, and everyone will definitely misunderstand it by then.”
Han Chu raised his eyelids to look at Ye Shuang, picked up a piece of chocolate from the table, slowly peeled off the wrapper with his slender fingers, then slowly stuffed it into his mouth and chewed carefully, squinting his eyes meaningfully: "... Misunderstand?!"
"Otherwise?!" Ye Shuang asked back.
Han Chu made a "tsk" sound, and said lightly, "Anyway, it's good not to affect the work." After speaking, he took out a pair of simple earrings and a bracelet: "Tony modified it, mainly for intercom communication... the earrings are Receive, the rose on the bracelet is the message, I have already checked the frequency with Zhuo Yuanhang, and it will not be filtered by the shielding device here."
Just as Ye Shuang put on the earrings, the intercom in the room rang. After answering the call, it was Zhuo Yuanhang's assistant who had obviously contacted Han Chu and Ebner's shared apartment first, but no one answered. Only then did I find Ye Shuang's side.
After hearing the news from the assistant, Ye Shuang hung up the phone: "Brother Han, Assistant Zhuo Yuanhang said that there is a person playing golf at the golf course."
When Han Chu saw Ebner, Ebner had just finished eating a chicken wing and was sucking the oil on his index finger. Seeing this, he shrugged his shoulders: "It seems that it's time for me to exercise?"
"I hope your golf skills are good enough." Han Chu nodded calmly, seeking truth from facts: "The one who goes to the golf course should be the second-largest shareholder. He usually doesn't lie to people. If you don't have common interests, it will be difficult for you to get along with him." He spoke."
Ebner went to the bathroom and came out after rinsing his hands. While drying the water stains on his hands, he squinted his gray eyes: "I don't need to talk to him, I just need to watch... and take it easy, remember that I am a professional , you should have more confidence in me."
"I don't think professionals should go to the golf course with chicken wing buckets to sow hatred." Ye Shuang added.
"..." Ebner looked at the paper bucket he picked up in his hand with some reluctance, and finally put it down after a fierce ideological struggle, and sighed: "Well, I think you are right."
Ebner was the first to leave Ye Shuang's room. Ye Shuang walked over unceremoniously, took away the chicken wing bucket that Ebner had left on the low cabinet by the door, and then took a wing root from it and took a bite... Excellent Flour and spices, chicken wings are not low-grade cold storage stocks that have been frozen for several years, and the frying oil is also fresh... The service quality of Zhuo Yuanhang's business is really good.
It seems that she doesn't have to worry about rations for these four days and three nights.
After eating a wing root in two or three bites, Ye Shuang went on to get another one, and asked at the same time, "Brother Han, is there anything else?"
"Not for the time being." Han Chu got up, nodded and left.
Everyone else in the room left, Ye Shuang began to concentrate on filling her stomach. The bucket of chicken wings was quickly disposed of. Ye Shuang cleaned up the garbage and called room service to clean up the carpet stained by Ebner with Coke. Before the cleaning staff came to the door, the intercom rang again. She was still doing her duty Assistant, the gossip about the itinerary reported this time is about Zhuo Feiyang... He accompanied the guests he invited to the casino on the cruise ship.
Ye Shuang notified Han Chu of the news after changing hands, using the walkie-talkie produced by Tony: "People from Xihua have gone to the casino, and Zhuo Feiyang will accompany them."
"Ebner is already at the golf course, so I can't get through it now." Han Chu said: "The casino on the cruise ship doesn't matter. They definitely won't just go there once or twice. There will be a chance next time. And Zhuo Feiyang can't suffer here."
"That's right, the dealer is his brother's employee, and the waiter is also his brother's employee. Anyone who wants to cheat has to look at the place. If Zhuo Feiyang really wants to take revenge, it is not impossible to collude with the dealer to cheat..." Ye Shuang gloat.
Han Chu was silent for a moment: "... If you don't tell me, I forgot, I heard that 'Mr. Ye' once rescued the second son of the Zhuo family in a casino, otherwise it would have almost caused a catastrophe."
"Cough!" Ye Shuang just remembered this episode. The advantage of losing the vest is that someone will cover him, but the disadvantage is that he will be caught if he tries to do something with the "trumpet" in the future, so he said seriously: "That's called being brave to save a mistake." youth."
There seemed to be a slight smile in Han Chu's voice because of this righteousness: "It's a pity that 'Mr. Ye' is not here now. Zhuo Yuanhang is our customer after all, so I would trouble you to check on his brother's situation."
Ye Shuang, who had dropped her vest, obediently went out to kill the casino, talking on the phone with Han Chu on the walkie-talkie while walking: "This casino is under the name of Zhuo Yuanhang, even if you think about it with your hair, it doesn't matter whether Zhuo Feiyang wins or loses. The difference between pockets and right pockets... Brother Han, what do you think the people in Xihua are thinking?" Even their brains are flooded as soon as they go out to sea? !
Han Chu didn't seem to take it seriously, and said with the sound of keyboard tapping and the sea breeze in the background: "Cultivating habits is also a way, let him adapt to the atmosphere of the casino first, then set up a game, wait for the other party to get into the game and finally close the net... This kind of thing is not good. It is necessary for Zhuo Feiyang to indulge in winning or losing immediately, but before he indulges, he can get used to it. What's more, there are also bets in casinos that don't require dealers, and there is a possibility of manipulation."
"It's possible to develop a habit, but they probably wouldn't dare to bet against each other. If it's okay in the casino outside, Zhuo Yuanhang is watching here. If Zhuo Feiyang loses a large sum of money suddenly, it will definitely alarm Zhuo Yuanhang." Right in front of her eyes, Ye Shuang said hastily: "Okay, I'll go and look over here, and Brother Han will talk later."
Han Chu: "..." What are we talking about? Is this really a phone chat room? !
Han Chu sent an email to Zhuo Yuanhang to introduce Ye Shuang's female body information before, so it's not surprising that Zhuo Yuanhang knew her, but Zhuo Feiyang had never met Shuangmei at all.
All along, there was only Brother Shuang who appeared in front of Zhuo Feiyang, so after the gender switch, even if Ye Shuang was standing less than half a meter away from Zhuo Feiyang, the other party still didn't know who Ye Shuang was.
"Buy it, please leave." The croupier smiled very officially, even if the person in front of him was the second young master of the owner's family, he didn't treat him the slightest differently.
The person from the Xihua Group is still the man with glasses, but he doesn't take Zhuo Feiyang to play cards now, maybe because he had too deep and painful memories at the poker table before, this time the man with glasses takes Zhuo Feiyang's "knowledge" It's dice.
Players basically don’t make a lot of money with this gamble, and the ones who make money are the dealers, and there’s no way to raise the bets with the aggressive Farah, but the advantage lies in the speed, and the gamble that is completely based on luck can also make some people have greater expectations. Expectation, tension is more serious than playing cards... Tension is due to the unknown, the unknown leads to anticipation, anticipation leads to concentration, concentration leads to addiction...
After Ye Shuang listened intently to the sound of the dice rolling in the dice cup, he could probably determine the number of points. If there is no accident, it is a "small", but Zhuo Feiyang is a scumbag who is unswerving and piles up the word "big" on his chips grid.
It's fine if you don't have talent, but if you don't even have luck, you'll be disgusted wherever you throw it.
Ye Shuang shook his head and sighed, Zhuo Feiyang looked over in doubt.
"One three one one!"
The croupier opened the cup, but Zhuo Feiyang was attracted to him in an instant. When he saw a "small", his eyes widened in disbelief: "Why is it so small again?!"
The man with glasses smiled and comforted him: "Probably bad luck, but there are already so many small ones, so next time it should be big."
Card counting and tricksters can't do anything with dice, so the man in glasses is very cautious and rational, and keeps up with a few chips for fun, but Zhuo Feiyang seems to have healed his scar and forgot the pain, and he feels a little sinking, probably because he is not reconciled. Want to turn the tables and be attracted in.
"The so-called 'small' is opened a lot, so the probability of 'big' next time is relatively high... This kind of saying is only for laymen." Ye Shuang couldn't bear to look at it, and successfully attracted the attention of Zhuo Feiyang and the man with glasses Afterwards, with a faint smile, the elegant lady template opened: "The odds of big and small are the same. Every time you open a cup, it is equivalent to winding up and restarting, so no matter how many cups you opened before, this result will not affect the next one. " He paused, and the corners of his lips slightly raised an angle to look at the two of them: "Betting the hope of success on the accumulation of previous failures is just a self-deceiving idea that only losers have."
Dice can be said to be the first skill Ye Shuang practiced after coming into contact with gambling equipment. Compared with card skills that require calculation and luck, Ye Shuang has much more confidence on the dice table, because it is a thing that relies entirely on technology .
The number and spacing of the dice before they are placed in the dice cup, the weight and size of the dice itself, the friction and impact force between the dice and the dice cup, the angle, speed and force of shaking the cup... as long as calculations and skills are required For things, Ye Shuang is absolutely confident that there will be no mistakes.
The man with glasses frowned and coughed, turning his head away as if he was suppressing the urge to choke on himself and the other party.
But Zhuo Feiyang was a little embarrassed and embarrassed, and the good impression he had on Ye Shuang's appearance was also suppressed: "This lady is pretty."
"I also played beautifully." Ye Shuang blinked his right eye, and when Zhuo Feiyang was stunned by her blink, he turned his head and stretched out his hand to ask the croupier for the dice cup: ".i?"
It hasn't been long since the cruise ship left the coast, and the first banquet hasn't even started yet. There are almost no guests hanging around in most of the facilities now. Even the casino has only a dozen or so people scattered and wandering in front of each gaming table. Such a dice Naturally, not many people paid attention to Taiwan.
Anyway, it will not affect the normal operation of the casino, and the identities of the guests on board this time are not simple, so the croupier naturally raised his arm politely and made a gesture of please feel free.
Ye Shuang picked up the dice cup by himself and weighed it. After evaluating the inner volume of the cup and the possible friction caused by the material, he picked up a dice and weighed it in the same way.
Before Zhuo Feiyang and the man with glasses realized what Ye Shuang wanted to do, they saw that the latter had already thrown the dice back on the stage, and then the dice cup in his hand did not make any movements, as if he was just randomly sweeping the table in parallel. Several dice on the table have already been rolled into the cup.
Immediately, the sound of the dice hitting regularly came from the dice cup.
With this move alone, the man with glasses has already raised his vigilance in an instant.
Zhuo Feiyang only thought that rolling the dice was very handsome, but he didn't see the trick.
Noticing the focused gaze of the man with glasses, Ye Shuang smiled, and then the regular crashing sound suddenly became chaotic and frequent like a storm.
The man with glasses panicked for a moment, and before he had time to adjust... In fact, he was not at that level after adjusting... The dice cup was suddenly dropped on the dice table, and the crisp impact just now disappeared, leaving only the standing still. A dice cup on the table.
"What time?" Ye Shuang asked.
"Uh, what?!" Zhuo Feiyang was a little dumbfounded, shouldn't he be asking about size? !
The man with glasses gritted his teeth: "I'm betting big?" The lack of confidence and guilt were evident in his voice.
Ye Shuang smiled, and put her hands on the dice cup to deliberately tease the two of them: "I said it was three sixes, do you believe it?"
"..." I'll be damned if I believe you!
Although it was a secret stabbing relationship between face and heart, Zhuo Feiyang and the man with glasses were in sync at this moment, and they both cast contemptuous glances at Ye Shuang.
The man with glasses naturally doesn't believe that someone can get the points he wants in such an irregular and high-frequency rolling of the dice. Although there is a certain skill in this, the skill must be operated at a certain level. alien.
And Zhuo Feiyang thought of the casino knowledge that Brother Shuang once taught him. With certain skills and professional calculations, he could achieve the results he wanted, but the results of calculations were calculated by probabilities. No one could guarantee the accuracy every time. Skills It needs a long-term relationship, and there is also a certain possibility of failure, and the unoperable part must also be considered... As a fan of Brother Shuang, Zhuo Feiyang firmly believes that it is impossible for the other party to subvert this cognition.
And then... there is no more.
In the uncovered dice cup, three sixes were quietly lying on the table as if silently laughing at the two of them, and even the croupier next to him almost stared out of his eyes in shock.
Who said there are no masters among the people? ! It's the first time I've seen the God of Gamblers when I grow up so big!
"There is a sky beyond the sky, and there are people beyond people." Ye Shuang clapped his hands slowly, looked at Zhuo Feiyang and said slowly and meaningfully: "Any kind of gambling is not based on luck alone, you can't control the game, why do you gamble with others? "
Zhuo Feiyang was in a daze for a moment, and suddenly felt that this line was very familiar, just like the line he heard from another population...
"Excuse me, sir...?" Zhuo Feiyang unknowingly became serious and asked cautiously.
"It's the first time we meet. My surname is Ye, Ye Shuang."
