Chapter 265 A little green on the head

After returning from the Great Ocean Road, everyone was tired.

I had a phone call with my mother. The domestic business is going well. We have quite a few franchised graphic stores. The business is developing very fast and we have started to open branches throughout the province.

Many small business owners are attracted by this because they do not need to pay a large amount of equipment fees at one time.

However, some people are unwilling to do so because leasing equipment requires collateral. After all, doing business is risky, so conservative people are keeping a wait-and-see attitude.

Port of Melbourne.

This is a modern port.

At present, the cargo handled is close to 9000 million tons, including about 200 million containers.

But this is just one of the ports in Mo Village.

Chen Xi and A Lin were standing at the port, organizing people to load goods.

“The scenery abroad is still better!”

"Wulin isn't bad either."

"It has been completely changed beyond recognition due to development. It used to be an ancient city, but now..."

The person in charge of transportation sent by Zhang Wu was a slightly overweight middle-aged man.

Since the volume of goods being transported was large and it was the first transaction between the two parties, he was particularly cautious.

After nearly a month of long sailing, the person in charge looked very tired. When he arrived at Mo Village, he just let out a long breath, as if he was tired of boarding the ship again.

Considering that he had been traveling a long way, Chen Xi took the initiative to invite him to attend the opening ceremony of the auto parts city.

This would not only allow the other party to witness the prosperity of the business here with their own eyes, but would also allow him to bring back some positive information to Zhang Wu, indicating the possibility of continued cooperation here.

Such an arrangement would be beneficial to both parties and would further solidify their cooperative relationship.

"Ha, you are about the same age as Mr. Zhang's daughter. I didn't expect that you have started a big business. This is not what people of your age should have." The middle-aged man is called Wu Shouren, and he is an old employee of Zhang Wu's company.

This was also Wu Shouren's first time in Mo Village. He seemed a little curious about the people and things here. Because the young man in front of him was a relative of the boss, he was also particularly enthusiastic.

"Why don't you have any big car factories in Australia? Or some factories producing auto parts? It takes too long to transport them here." Wu Shouren didn't know much about the situation in Australia. He only knew that there were no car factories. Although he had heard of the only domestic car company here, he felt that it was not very famous.

"The cost of automobile manufacturing in Australia is relatively high. High labor costs and the limited size of the local market are the main reasons for the high cost. Toyota, Mitsubishi, Ford and others wanted to build factories here before, but they withdrew in the end." Chen Xi explained with a smile. This place is different from China. Although the car penetration rate is very high, the population is too small and it cannot be compared with the market in China at all.

"Australians like to protect the environment! If you build a factory like this, who knows, those environmentalists will come to hold a parade." A Lin added sarcastically.

It’s fine that Australia had environmentalists before, but it also has a lot of weird organizations, such as the Vegetarian Association and the Gay Organization, which all like to hold parades in front of official buildings.

"Haha, things in foreign countries are really weird. I saw a parade of shrews when I went to Australia before. It was about opposing sexual harassment..." Wu Shouren laughed and developed a strong interest in this unfamiliar land of Australia.

Zhang Wu's company had close trade relations with the United States, and Wu Shouren went there very frequently.

"This name is so weird." Alin also covered his mouth and laughed.

"Who said it wasn't? I don't know who came up with it. I thought it was a group of shrews going on parade." Wu Shouren is not young anymore, but he is no less knowledgeable than young people when talking about this.

"Speaking of which, do you have room to store so many goods? I heard that your auto parts city is tens of thousands of square meters. You are not exaggerating! I have never seen such a scale in China."

"That's different. The situation in China is different from here. I'll take you there to see it with your own eyes."

The three of them chatted while finding a place to eat.

“Can you do anything else besides cars?”

At the dinner table, Chen Xi asked. He didn't know much about the specific situation of Zhang Wu's company. He had only heard some things from his family before.

"Of course. We do whatever can make money. We are the largest one in Ford..." Wu Shouren began to introduce Zhang Wu's company. Chen Xi knew some of the manufacturers he introduced. One of them was a boss from Xinlu. The factory was located in a city in Su Province, specializing in making locks and other parts for Volkswagen.

Zhang Wu is not only involved in the automobile industry, but also actively expands into other business areas. The Zhijiang area has many factories and a variety of goods, which provides rich resources and markets for his business.

In addition, due to the high cost of foreign labor, many companies choose to find partners in China, which also brings huge business opportunities to Zhang Wu's business. As a result, his business is extremely prosperous and has achieved great success.

"How is Zhang Yin?"

"She is... different from you. Girls... just eat, drink and travel every day..."

Facing Chen Xi's question, Wu Shouren spoke hesitantly, trying his best to beautify his boss's daughter. In his impression, the boss's daughter was an average student who usually only knew how to play and looked a little confused.

"She studied architectural design."

"Hmm... this... seems to be the case."

As soon as Chen Xi heard what Wu Shouren said, he knew that his cousin didn't study well.

No wonder my cousin often changes countries to stay in. It turns out she goes around eating, drinking and having fun.

My cousin is a good student, but her family doesn't run a business, so she has to work outside, which makes her quite tired.

"I heard that casinos are legal in Australia. Take me there to have some fun."

"Don't even mention casinos. All clubs are legal. I'll definitely take you to have some fun tonight."

A Lin liked Wu Shouren as the big brother and immediately agreed by patting his thigh.

It was their first meeting, and Chen Xi didn't want to spoil the other person's fun, so he naturally agreed to go together.

On the first floor of Crown, Chen Xi sat there watching two people playing cards. It was obvious that this was not the first time that Wu Shouren and A Lin came to such a place, and it could be seen that they were very familiar with gambling.

As soon as the three of them came in, they went straight to the point and started playing the Chinese people's favorite game of house. Chen Xi, who was about to take out his gold card to enter the VIP lounge, rolled his eyes when he saw Alin waving the platinum card in his hand at the guard.

Good guy, no wonder I always felt that he had no money. I used to think he only went to clubs, but I didn't expect that he was also a frequent visitor to such places. The VIP room was as lively as ever, with a lot of people here, and several tables were full of people.

"Ha, this is much more interesting than the casino in Australia. There you can only hear Mandarin and Cantonese, but here you can hear all kinds of bird sounds." Wu Shouren played cards with a smile.

The dealer was a foreigner and didn't understand what Wu Shouren was laughing at. He just thought Wu Shouren was making fun of him, and his face was as stern as a poker card when he dealt the cards.

Chen Xi was watching the two people playing cards from the side. A Lin didn't seem to win much at the bet, and his expression was always calm whether he was losing or winning money.

As a worker, Wu Shouren would naturally feel sad when he lost money, but he was lucky today and overall he won money.

"You've been watching all night and haven't played a few hands. Don't you think it's boring?" Alin blinked at Chen Xi. It was the first time he saw someone who came to the casino without playing. You know, such people are rare. Even those who don't usually gamble will not be able to resist playing a few hands when they come here.

"No! It's quite interesting to watch you guys play. I put myself in your shoes."

"You are really awesome."

For this answer, Alin could only express admiration.

"Chen Xi, you didn't even call me when you came here." At this time, someone patted Chen Xi's shoulder. When he turned around, he saw that it was Lao Wang.

Lao Wang has a lot of chips in his hand, basically more than one thousand yuan, which adds up to tens of thousands.

"Why, did you win money? Looks like you're lucky."

"It's not bad, not as much as others, but some people have won a lot of money recently."

"He will have to spit it out when the time comes, unless he never plays again in his life."

Chen Xi shrugged. He didn't care about what Lao Wang said. The money in Casino is unlimited. Just because you are lucky today doesn't mean you can win next time.

If everyone could win money in a casino, no one would open a business.

"Hey, is he your friend? You're lucky! I'd better follow you." Lao Wang sat down and joined the battle between the two people next to him.

Wu Shouren had good luck to begin with, and with the instigation of Lao Wang, the stakes became higher and higher, and soon the three of them won a total of 100,000 Australian dollars. When the people around saw these three powerful warriors, they all gathered around them, wanting to win money together.

Chen Xi wasn't playing anyway, so naturally he had to give up his seat to other players. He went straight to the restroom to flush the toilet.

In the men's restroom of the VIP lounge, Chen Xi was washing his hands after flushing the toilet. He vaguely heard a gasp and immediately understood what was going on.

There are actually people doing this in the toilet of a casino, it's really fun.

Soon, a loud and deliberately masked singing voice sounded, and the people in the toilet cubicle were done.

"You called me here just to give me money and do this?" a female voice sounded.

"Tsk, it's just such a small amount of money. I will probably lose it all in half an hour." A man's voice came out, sounding a little out of breath.

"You're such a bastard, I told you to stop gambling. In order to make money for you, I was treated like a beast and even filmed, wuuuu~" the woman said with a sob.

"Okay, Rongrong, stop crying. Just work harder."

"Fang Lin is such a pervert. He even made me watch his ex-girlfriend's videos. I usually watch them with his friends. My videos must have been watched by others."

"Hold on a little longer and make more money."

"Who do you think I am? I might as well work as a prostitute in a club! At least I won't be photographed. He usually beats and scolds me, and I can't stand it anymore. That day he even made me do it with him on the lighthouse..."

"Stop chirping. I'm going to go out and play. You go home and go to bed early."

"You just hang out here every day now, and you're not good at that anymore."

"What are you talking about! I was injured before and haven't recovered yet. I think you have fallen in love with that man."

"You're sick. If I liked him, would I come and give you money?"

After he finished speaking, the toilet door began to shake, and it was obvious that the person inside was about to come out. However, the person who opened the door seemed to be grabbed by another person. Seeing this, Chen Xi immediately flew away.

Oh shit, Huang Rong?
With such a variety of tricks, is Fang Lin being cuckolded?

Forget it, it’s a matter of mutual consent, so don’t worry too much about it.

Still making money? According to Fang Lin's speed of changing girlfriends, Huang Rong might not be his girlfriend next month.

There are actually people who let their women accompany other men to earn money for gambling. This is really eye-opening. I seem to have seen this plot in Hong Kong movies.

When Chen Xi left, the toilet door was opened.

A man limped out, and after checking that there was no one else in the toilet, he coughed behind him. Then Huang Rong walked out of the toilet box and casually threw a used umbrella into the trash can.

This man was Bobby, whose leg was broken by Chen Xi before.

Ever since his leg was broken, he no longer did his previous pimping business and stayed in Crown every day. When he lost all his money, he would ask his ex-girlfriend Huang Rong for money.

Now all the women around him have left him, except Huang Rong, because she doesn't know what Bobby did before.

Although they broke up a long time ago, they have been in contact. Since they couldn't be boyfriend and girlfriend, they just became friends with benefits. Bobby was having a hard time recently, so he found her.

At this time, in an office upstairs in Crown, a very beautiful woman was leaning on the boss chair, and a foreigner was standing next to her, reporting his work to her with sweat on his forehead.

The woman's face showed no emotion, making it difficult to get a glimpse of her inner thoughts.

The Crown executive standing nearby looked nervous, not daring to breathe, and appeared extremely respectful.

The atmosphere in the whole room was solemn and quiet, with only the occasional sound of a woman tapping on the table adding a bit of tension.
