Chapter 293 First Voyage

There is no technical difficulty for gambling boats in the high seas. It only requires you to have the courage to pull your teeth from the tiger's mouth, and the ability to resist the open and secret arrows that come with it.

Jing Jian took all idle mail ships in Hong Kong and Macao in one go, and signed a three-year agreement, which temporarily caused a market vacuum. Even if competitors appear, mail ships are transferred from other regions, and the renovation preparations will take at least half a year. The construction cycle of new ships is longer, so during this period, Jing Jian once again monopolized this exclusive business.

The Palace and another Sea Pearl are sister ships, with a displacement of more than 30,000 tons, and the amusement facilities on the ship are complete and can accommodate more than 700 passengers. These two ships are also the most suitable for converting them into gambling ships among all the mail ships, and are also shorter and newer ships.

Due to the tight time, the Palace of the Sea is preparing for tomorrow's maiden voyage after a simple decoration. The decoration of the Pearl of the Sea will be much more luxurious. In the future, these two ships will take turns to sea. As for the other ships, they will stay at the dock in the future and will not be used.

Because it was the first flight, the number of passengers was reduced, and the last one was only more than 500 people. There are two types of tickets for gambling ships. One is to purchase a 200,000 clay code and automatically get a ticket. And this time, the first flight discount costs only 180,000 Hong Kong dollars to buy a 200,000 clay code. The future of going overseas will also have discounts, but it will become 190,000 yuan to buy 200,000 yuan; the other is 2,888 sets of tickets, which are free of food and accommodation for two days when going to sea. Of course, VIP customers who accumulate more than 1 million clay codes in the future will have a series of discounts such as bringing people, picking up and dropping off.

Although you are as careful as possible, Jing Jian’s gambling boats have natural shortcomings. The reason why gamblers, especially high-ranking customers, come to you to play is first of all, which is about strength, secondly, safety, and must not be suspected of cheating. All of this is about the reputation of the casino.

Is Jing Jian’s gambling ship credible? To put it bluntly, it is similar to those underground gambling files in Hong Kong. The reputation needs time to build a little bit. Therefore, in Jing Jian’s estimate, at the beginning, it will only attract some tourists who are curious about freshness and curiosity, and there will not be many high-caps at all, so it is basically operating at a bleak loss. It may take half a year or a year before it will slowly turn losses into profits.

But unexpectedly, in just a few days, before going out to sea, the gambling money exchanged for mud codes on Jin Fu's account had accumulated to nearly 20 million yuan. Although most of the time would be taken away by the winning customers after getting off the ship, the number left was astonishing enough.

It is no exaggeration to say that if there are no monsters who are extremely smooth among the gamblers on board, this first voyage alone will make Jing Jian a big profit, which is completely different from the original pessimistic estimate.

However, if you can not lose money or make money, Jing Jian certainly welcomes you with both hands. He will not be full and will think about the reasons behind it.

...

On the weekend, the maiden voyage of the Palace of the Sea officially started. Liu Kai, in the afternoon, had a rare suit and bow tie and began to stand on the gambling boat to welcome guests. As guests boarded the boat, many media came uninvited. Although they knew that the boat was gambling on the high seas, there was no large amount of cash on the boat, and there were only some "entertainment tools" on the boat. No one was gambling now. Even if someone reported it, the Hong Kong police had no evidence to ask the gambling boat to stop activities. Once they arrived at the high seas, even if they were in a state of excitement, Hong Kong laws would never interfere.

Jing Jian was wearing a casual suit, watching the guests without paying attention at a corner of the ship's side. Guo Wenzhen was wearing a white dress and long skirt, with high heels and pearl necklace, but he was holding Jing Jian's arm, and was thrilling like a little girl.

"Wow! It's Awen, Awenye!", "Look, look, that's Brother Hua!", "Arong is the most beautiful, I like him the most!"...

What made Guo Wenzhen scream were Hong Kong stars. At this time, those Hong Kong and Taiwan stars were not worth a lot of money and had very little extra money, just 50,000 or 100,000, and these stars could become guests. Jing Jian was already preparing to make big money, so there was no need to save money in this regard, so today's star lineup could barely be considered a star-studded star.

Guo Wenzhen became more and more excited, and saw that Jing Jian was indifferent: "Brother Xiao Jian, why? You don't know them? They are all very famous. I will introduce them to you. Did you invite them? Can you take a photo with them later? It's better to have an autograph."

"It's okay to have a photo and autograph." Seeing that the star-chasing clan around him became more and more free, Jing Jian couldn't help but joke, "Just don't hold me, I'm afraid of being embarrassed, why did he find a... a scammer? Hahaha!"

Guo Wenzhen was so angry that he stepped on Jing Jian's feet with his high heels. Seeing that Jing Jian was hiding quickly, he hugged him tighter. He felt a sense of softness coming from his arms. After a while of laughter, Guo Wenzhen happily leaned on Jing Jian's shoulder. When he was with Jing Jian, Guo Wenzhen was already more and more relaxed.

Jing Jian didn't tell the Guo brothers and sisters these days. However, Guo Wenzhen still learned the news and Miss Guo was very angry, so... she became Jing Jian's female companion today.

Finally at six o'clock, Jing Jian raised his wrist and looked at his watch, and ordered Adelun behind him: "Hound the horn and drive the boat!"

...

In the banquet hall of the mail boat, more than 500 guests gathered together. There were tables of precious dishes, but the guests were absent-minded and listened to the host of the host on the stage.

Since no guests with enough weight were invited, Liu Kai directly delivered a speech: "...Now welcome to Jin Fu's Liu Sheng's speech!"

Amid the applause, Liu Kai nodded to Jing Jian, walked to the stage, took out the manuscript that he had discussed with Jing Jian, and began his speech: "Gentlemen, ladies, welcome to the palace on the sea. In fact, today's first voyage is to hope that you can have a good time. Originally, the baccarat station in the Diamond Hall was limited to 500,000 yuan, but I think it would be 800,000 yuan to get a good reputation..."

The stage was stunned, especially those Haoke who were preparing to try their skills.

The so-called limit of red is the bet amount that the gambling game is capped. Jing Jian had also encountered limit of red in Macau before. The casino's explanation of limit of red generally says: limit of red is used to restrain the emotions of gamblers, avoid gamblers losing control of their emotions, losing too much, losing money, etc. In the real situation, if there is no limit of red, the casino cannot make enough profits. It is a very simple truth, because no matter how much money the casino is, it is not as much as the total amount of money that all gamblers add up!
