Porcelain to Porcelain

In the following time, Lu Qiu satisfies the needs of the gamblers very well.

Whoever is running out of cigarettes, Lu Qiu will add more immediately.Whoever's teacup was half drunk, Lu Qiu immediately filled it up.Who was sweating on the tip of his forehead and nose, Lu Qiu warmed up a towel and handed it over to wipe off the sweat.

Before twelve o'clock, the game was over, and it ended earlier.

After staying in the room for a long time, from the conversation of the gamblers and the information disclosed by Xiao Ding, Lu Qiu probably figured out the tricks of the blocking square on the second floor.

Brother Jiang is the head of the family. Because he was seriously ill when he was young, he became lazy after recovering from illness. He didn't go to work and played cards at home to pass the time.Brother Jiang is the deputy bureau of this police district. In his area, no police station dares to catch gambling no matter how much Jiang Ge plays at home.

After coming and going, gamblers who are addicted to gambling love to play cards with Brother Jiang.

Gamblers who lose all their money in poker or are inconvenient will temporarily borrow money from Jiang Ge.According to the rules of the casino, gamblers can only get [-] for borrowing [-], but they have to pay back [-] when they pay it back, and the missing [-] is water money.

Because we all know each other well, this kind of temporary loan will not be returned for more than a week.

For more than one week, the debt shall be calculated at an interest rate of 20.00% to [-]% of the loan amount.The interest rate is extremely high, and no one can bear it after a long time.

Almost all the gamblers who borrowed money from Brother Jiang here did not repay the money. If they did not repay, the business run by that gambler would face frequent inspections and could not operate normally, making life extremely uncomfortable.At the same time, in the circle, losing face and credibility, everyone cast aside.

Jiang Ge realized that this was a way to make a fortune, so he worked hard to manage it.

First of all, Jiang Ge didn't gamble by himself, so he just sat on the side and released water money, that is, borrowed nine thousand and paid back ten thousand.The interest rate will be higher if the debt period exceeds the specified time.

In addition to making money by releasing water money, Jiang Ge also improved the services of the casino.All kinds of high-end fruit snacks and cigarettes are available in unlimited quantities, giving people a bold and comfortable environment.Of course, expensive cigarettes can only be consumed by gamblers on the spot and cannot be taken home.Ding Xiaoqiang is Jiang Ge's trusted younger brother, who is specially hired to do odd jobs and run errands.

Because Jiang Ge's safety is guaranteed here, and there will be no scammers who set up tricks, more and more gamblers introduce their friends here.As the business expanded, three tables were opened for gamblers at most.Ding Xiaoqiang and Brother Jiang couldn't take care of the three-table gambling table, so they needed to find someone else.This person must be cautious, hard-working and smart. Ding Xiaoqiang met Lu Qiu on the street. Lu Qiu happened to be out of work, so he thought he could bring him here to give Jiang Ge palms.

People who are neatly dressed and have a good appearance will always give people a good impression. Brother Jiang agreed to try it out after looking at it.

There is no salary in the field here, and no salary does not mean no income.

Gamblers usually get red money when they win money, except for the gamblers who participate in gambling, everyone in the room has it.The amount of red money depends on the amount won by the gambler.As a general practice, if you win, you will usually get fifty or one hundred more points for the spectators around you. If you win more, you will be generous with two or three hundreds of dollars.

There is no ten-yuan and 20-yuan bills on the poker table, and the spectators will bring them on their bodies, and they will take the initiative to cut them open for everyone to share equally.

Every time red money is distributed, there will be at least ten yuan per person.The one with the most red money tonight was issued by Xiao Ding on behalf of Wang’s boss, two 50 yuan per person.Xiaoding, Brother Jiang, two spectators and Luqiu, there were five people in total, and they lost five hundred.The two spectators were small gamblers, and they stayed by the side to watch and wait for the bonus before it was their turn to sit at the table.

In the casino, just like in society, it is also based on wealth and status.

Ding Xiaoqiang quietly told Lu Qiu that the most red money he encountered was [-] at a time. At that time, there were seven people waiting for the red money, and each of them got [-].Lu Qiu was speechless, the money came so easily.

One night, Lu Qiuku's pockets were full.At the beginning, Lu Qiu secretly counted, but later he became numb and stopped counting. If he had red money, he would put it in his pocket, and then gave the gamblers a compliment from Ding.In this touting atmosphere, the gamblers became more and more enthusiastic.

At the end of the game, the two gamblers always took [-] from Brother Jiang, and Brother Jiang could earn [-] in water money.

The winner today is not Boss Wang, but the other two.After the game is over, Jiang Ge proposes to treat everyone to supper.

"Don't eat, I have to go home and sleep, and I will drive someone to Wuxi early tomorrow morning." Boss Wang was very unlucky and lost the most money. Ten thousand.

Brother Jiang didn't bother to keep him either: "That's okay, if you send someone away, go back to Shanghai if you have nothing to do."

"Definitely, next time I will play with Lao Song and the others." Boss Wang reported the name of a gambler.Gamblers also like to pick people when they gamble, they have a similar temper, they have a cool personality and good gambling skills.

"Okay, call me one day, and I'll come to ask Lao Song and the others." Of course Jiang Ge will try his best to meet the requirements of the guests.

After Boss Wang left, the other two gamblers were also in a hurry to go home, and the remaining one thought that there were too few people and not lively enough to arouse his interest in eating supper, so he also drove back home.The two spectators are small roles in the circle, they seldom go to the table and spend more time waiting for red money.Brother Jiang yawned, and the two of them got to know each other and left.

"Xiao Ding, you and Xiao Lu close this place for a while and then go back." Brother Jiang drew two hundred-yuan bills from the coffee table and gave them to Ding Xiaoqiang. "After cleaning up, you can go and relax."

There are additional benefits.

"Understood, Brother Jiang." Ding Xiaoqiang took the money and urged Brother Jiang to go upstairs: "Brother Jiang, go to bed, and Qiusheng and I will close the door when we leave."

"Well, I will trouble you two." Brother Jiang shifted his gaze to Lu Qiu: "Xiao Lu, work hard, everyone will know after a long time, I will not let my brother suffer."

Lu Qiu smiled: "Thank you Jiang Ge for taking care of me."

After Brother Jiang left, Ding Xiaoqiang and Lu Qiu opened all the windows on the second floor to ventilate, wiped the tables and chairs, mopped the floor, collected the garbage and carried them downstairs.The whole cleaning work takes about half an hour.

"Come on, let's take a bath." Ding Xiaoqiang closed the courtyard door, and dragged Lu Qiu to the Golden Bay Building.

There is a high-end bathroom on the seventh floor of Golden Bay. There are many bathroom services, such as Thai gentle massage, Hawaiian style massage, just look at it.However, Ding Xiaoqiang didn't arrange these special services, and took Lu Qiu to take a bath in a regular manner, which made Lu Qiu feel better about him.

Soaking in the big pool, Ding Xiaoqiang asked Lu Qiu: "Qiusheng, are you satisfied with the job introduced by brother?" Ding Xiaoqiang's words implied complacency. "Qiu Sheng, if you only pass cigarettes and pour tea all night, you can earn two or three hundred dollars a day. Where can Shang Hai do that?"

"That's it, Brother Ding, you are the only one who can introduce me because you are trusted by Brother Jiang." Lu Qiu's face was sincere, but he had thoughts in his heart.Brother Jiang relied on his elder brother's power to make money, and it was impossible for Xiao Ding to follow behind him for a lifetime. Maybe something would happen one day.

"Qiu Sheng, people who can enter Brother Jiang's circle are a little bit capable, and it will be good for you to know more." Ding Xiaoqiang spoke earnestly, with the attitude of a life mentor.

"Well, I can see that they are all capable people." Lu Qiu didn't think any of the gamblers were outstanding, but felt that their speech was rude and they had a strong sense of nouveau riche.

"That's Mr. Li who won the most money today. Do you know what he does?" Ding Xiaoqiang was very excited about the conversation.

"What does Lee always do?"

"He is a matchmaker. This guy is very lucky. Some time ago, the price of matchmaker carbon suddenly increased. He happened to bet on a large amount of matchmaker before he could sell it. This increase made him more than 50 yuan."

"Awesome!" The corners of Lu Qiu's mouth curled up. He was an out-and-out nouveau riche, and he was still the type who didn't use his brain to smash pies in the sky.

"And that Boss Wang, guess what he does for a living?"

"Foreman?" Boss Wang said before leaving that he would send someone to Wuxi tomorrow.Lu Qiu guessed that he had hired a construction site in Wuxi and sent the craftsmen to work tomorrow.

"Haha, it's not the foreman, it's the group leader." Ding Xiaoqiang laughed loudly.

"Group leader?" Lu Qiu was surprised, now there is a group leader?The group heads in the previous life appeared after the Hengdian Film and Television City was built.

"Qiusheng, do you understand what the meaning of group leader is?" Ding Xiaoqiang said.

The group leader is the person who walks between the crew and the extras. The filming crew usually finds the group leader to arrange the extras in advance. The group leader holds the right to choose, and thus has the privilege of exploiting the group performers.

"I don't understand." As a media person, Lu Qiu would be ridiculous if he didn't know.

Ding Xiaoqiang helped Lu Qiu popularize science.There is no Hengdian in this world, but there is a film and television shooting base in Wuxi.Boss Wang, no, Wang Quntou was originally a group performer at the filming base. Because he knew many people and was able to help the crew find all kinds of extras, he gradually became a big boss.If you exploit more, you will become a boss.

"Qiusheng, you look good, build a good relationship with Boss Wang, maybe he will help you to make a movie." Ding Xiaoqiang joked.

Lu Qiu smiled and didn't respond, Wang Baoqiang seemed to be the only group performer in his previous life.

After gossip about Boss Wang, Ding Xiaoqiang told the embarrassing stories of several other well-known gamblers in the circle.

After taking a bath, Ding Xiaoqiang dragged Lu Qiu to eat supper.After eating supper and returning to the rented house, it was already past two o'clock in the morning.

Lu Qiu opened the door and entered the room, while Lu Chunhua was still sitting at the dining table cutting threads.

"Sister, why are you still awake?"

"I can't sleep until you come back." Lu Chunhua sniffed. "Qiu Sheng, why are you drinking again?"

"Sister, drinking is a normal entertainment. I didn't drink too much, so I drank a couple of taels with Xiao Ding."

"Xiao Ding is the friend who introduced you to work?"

"Well, his name is Ding Xiaoqiang.

"So, how is your work? Do you want it?"

The work was too different, Lu Qiu was afraid to scare Lu Chunhua, so he didn't tell the truth.

"I can go to work tomorrow, oh, most of the working hours are at night."

There were not as many people who gambled at Jiang Ge during the day than at night.

Lu Chunhua looked happy: "What about the salary? Did you say how much?"

Lu Qiu pressed his pocket: "Guaranteed to have one thousand a month."

"One thousand is enough!" Lu Chunhua let out a long sigh of relief, and lifted the stone that was pressing on her heart away.

"Sister, I will pay you [-] living expenses every month in the future, and you should cut the threads less, it will be bad for your eyes."

"It's okay, my eyes are fine." Lu Chunhua put down the scissors and took his trousers back to the room, leaving the living room for his brother to rest.

After Lu Chunhua closed the bedroom door, Lu Qiu sat on the bed, took out the red money in his trouser pocket and counted it, the total was 340.

It is not possible to receive so much red money every day, sometimes it is not a coincidence, there is no game in a day, sometimes the gamblers bet small, or the gamblers are particularly stingy, and the red money given to the spectators will be very little.However, Ding Xiaoqiang calculated that on average, there would be more than 100 per day, and three thousand per month would not be enough.

Jiang Ge's place is not a long-term place, Lu Qiu only intends to make a temporary transition to relieve the urgent need.Under Brother Jiang, no matter how good he is, he can't usurp Brother Jiang's position. Moreover, if something happens to Brother Jiang's backer, his servants will play along, and he may be implicated and sent to the classroom.

A side door is always a side, not the right way.Lu Qiu plans to hang out with Jiang Ge first, while looking for a suitable job.If a suitable job cannot be found, Lu Qiu is not worried, he can take the road of creating novels.

The ancient cultures of the two worlds are roughly the same, including the four great classics and Liaozhai.There are differences in modern culture. Xiaoxin novels and fantasy novels are the current mainstream, and none of the classic martial arts novels from previous lives are missing.

Lu Qiu plans to write a few novels in his spare time, and first send them to the publishing house to explore the way. If the physical publication fails, he will publish it online.

At present, novels on online novel sites are published for free. With the increase of Internet users, the influence of online novels will expand. Sooner or later, online book sites will charge for reading.

With eight years of writing by a media person and countless classics in his memory, Lu Qiu felt that it would be no problem for him to become a master of online novels.Thinking of this, Lu Qiu also relaxed and fell asleep.

Lu Qiu hadn't dreamed of being a writer for two days before he was dragged to Wuxi Film and Television City by Boss Wang who came back in a hurry.
