14 Talk directly according to the rules
But how can you make money?
So from 1846, Macau Governor Jose Gregorio Pegado simply issued a governor's order to open a casino.
This is equivalent to forcing Liangshan to force him to go to Liangshan.
Afterwards, after Joao Ferreirado Amaral took over as the governor in 1847, he directly legalized gambling methods such as "fan stall", "senior surname", and "white pigeon ticket".
In addition, the Portuguese government of Macau also introduced the so-called "franchise system", which means that the government granted the winning bidder the authority to monopolize the operation through public bidding. This system was originally only targeted daily necessities such as pork and beef, but was used in gambling in 1850. Since then, the gambling industry has grown step by step in Macau.
In other words, what the Portuguese are worried about now is not gambling.
Because they survive on this thing.
They are only worried about one thing.
After Mani, who had a pair of pants with Han Huaiyi, entered Macau, they had to drink the northwest wind.
This is why they resist.
The problem is, if you resist, you will first drink the northwest wind. If you don’t resist, there will be some talks.
Or would it be that Portugal sent troops to defeat Wakanda, but it would be OK if it wasn't a dream?
So in March 1949, Australian Governor Covena had to send a signal, hoping to have a direct interview with Han Huaiyi.
That's right, he was also anxious. It was you who messed with me, so why did I pretend to talk to the big hooligan Mani?
As a result, Han Huaiyi said: "Okay, I'll go tomorrow."
He didn't even cover up, and the British couldn't stand it anymore, but Covena became happy because everyone knew that as long as Ergouzi was willing to negotiate, there would be a chance. If he refused to negotiate, he really wanted to mess with you, so everyone should run away quickly.
The straight-line distance between Macau and Hong Kong is only 62 kilometers.
The armed fishing administration boat that Han Huaiyi was riding set off in the morning and arrived in Macau in two hours.
Before he arrived, the security of the Wa Concession had already set up controls in Macau in advance, and the Qing Gang under Du Yuesheng's command had also controlled the entire corners of Macau.
Although Covena would never target Han Huaiyi, he was also very worried about what someone would do to Han Huaiyi.
So he not only acquiesced to this behavior, but even sent police officers to cooperate with the other party.
For a moment, the entire island could not be poured in, unless you bombard it with missiles and aircraft, which obviously would not happen.
Covena is 57 years old this year, and he is equivalent to half a Macau native because he grew up in Macau since he was a teenager.
At that time, the Portuguese had some changes in their mentality towards Chinese, but there was still a kind of discrimination against Chinese.
Then today, when the yellow-skinned Han Huaiyi arrived, they had to show a modest attitude.
After all, all discrimination comes from the look of strength.
Or the kind of self-conceived look down.
But these confidences naturally do not exist in front of Han Huaiyi. It would be better if Han Huaiyi didn't look down on them.
The gray-haired Covena looked at the moment when Han Huaiyi stepped onto Macau territory like his master, and thought to himself that this was a historic moment.
Then he walked up and reached out his hand: "His Excellency Charlie, I have long admired your reputation and welcome you to Macau."
"The weather is really good today. I came across the sea and felt that everything would go smoothly. Then I saw the sincere smile of the Governor. This is such a wonderful moment." Han Huaiyi said in a vague manner.
Before he knew it, Ergouzi was already 66 years old, and he inevitably showed some old age.
For example, the loose skin on his neck, the color of his hair, but his eyes are still sharp and his steps are still firm.
Many people suspect that he can live to at least over ninety years old.
In this way, the world will have to be under his influence for almost thirty years. This is really news that frustrates many people.
Covena looked at his mental state and was a little envious.
Then he heard Han Huaiyi say, "Let's talk about it first, and then ask the Governor to take me to visit Macau, or how about I go back in shame?"
This... OK.
Covena looked around and pointed to a warehouse next to the dock: "Where to go to take a seat?"
"Just have a wooden box, it's fine." Han Huaiyi said that today he was not wearing a suit, jeans, big-toe boots, and sunglasses. This is a classic outfit in the top ambitions of the new Roman films, and it is very casual and chic in the Wakanda style.
Covena was well-dressed, but he had to follow him.
The members quickly opened the warehouse and cleaned up the place.
Then he cleverly brought food and coffee from the boat.
Then the two sat opposite each other, and the others sat on the side, and the sunlight poured into it from the gaps between the doors and windows of the warehouse and the huge ventilation fan blades on the wall.
The cut smoke columns move into strange shapes and mix with the cigar smoke in their mouths, making them look bizarre.
"This is very similar to the gang meeting scene in our movie. Speaking of which, this is stolen by the Portuguese, and I am also a Taoist figure. Now I am talking about a side business, so let's follow the rules of the world."
After Han Huaiyi said that, he took a sip of coffee and asked, "The Governor obviously agreed to our entry into Macau, but he was worried about our other ideas. After all, we snatched a large piece of meat from the British people, but I guaranteed here with my credibility that I don't have this idea about Macau, I just want to make friends with you."
After his superficial position, he said: "The lion's sweet words are only for the lioness. In fact, he has no credibility for other existences unless he can show true sincerity."
"So." Han Huaiyi said: "We want to develop Macau's gambling industry and prosper Macau at the same time. All this depends on your management and cooperation. In order to show sincerity, we will determine the investment amount and profit distribution model with you, and recommend that the supervision team jointly form the two parties participate in the specific review. After these agreements, we will first deliver a considerable amount of margin to your government, and then perform the operation."
"It's your time. Your Excellency." Han Huaiyi put out the cigar and looked at the other party quietly.
Covena thought for a while and said, "We must increase investment in infrastructure and public welfare construction in Macau."
"This is included in the distribution of interests. It can be talked about."
"We must link tourism and gambling industries."
"This is a matter of course, but the functional expressions are somewhat overlapping." Han Huaiyi was a little embarrassed, but he continued, "The annual income must be set, and it must be guaranteed even if it cannot be done."
"Obviously, you have done a lot of work. I like people like you, except for the last one we have agreed."
"Yes, but, Your Excellency Charlie, please forgive me for my disrespect. I, as the Governor, must ensure our interests, so I must have a baseline."
"Actually, it's equivalent to guaranteed, right?"
"Yes."
"Let's do this, the margin of 5 million US dollars is in the account, and the baseline is 500,000 US dollars. If we post it below this, we will deduct it from 5 million miles, and if we are above this, it is our own."
"That is to say, sign every ten years?" the other party asked cunningly.
