Chapter 490 Pretend to be a pig and eat the tiger

The fiery red sun shed the last ray of sunlight onto the sea, and then sank, and the entire sea was once again shrouded in darkness.

The Aquarius was brightly lit, especially the upper two floors of the entire cabin, which was bustling with people.

 This is how the nightlife begins!

As a jam ship, the top two floors are both jams, but there is also a division of labor. The lower level is an ordinary jam, and the upper level is a VIP jam. The higher you go, the more noble you are.

Qin Tao sighed with emotion in his heart. When he was planning the "Chengcheng" ship on the Eastern Sea, he could only develop downwards. The lower he went, the more noble he became. In fact, this was a big problem. Therefore, the ship was still considered a "blocking ship". Really inappropriate.

 Nowadays, this kind of cruise ship-modified block boat is the most suitable. The higher it goes, the more noble it is.

With such emotion, Qin Tao and Vitalia walked into the sub-floor and looked at the lively scene inside, as if they were visiting Lisboa on land.

 A large group of people gathered in front of each block table.

“Win, I win again!” A middle-aged man with a big belly shouted loudly from one of the tables.

Failed to pick up girls during the day, but was proud of blocking the table at night! The middle-aged man watched with great excitement as the chips came to him. He was extremely excited.

The female companion who accompanied him during the day did not get out of bed at all. At this time, next to the middle-aged man, there were two more gorgeously dressed women, who had obviously just hooked up with each other.

This middle-aged man looked around excitedly, intending to show off his prowess. Then, he saw Qin Tao and his group walking over, and he was immediately stunned.

 Irritated, angry, unwilling, and humiliated, there is a fire burning in the heart of the middle-aged man, getting stronger and stronger.

“Stop! Do you dare to fight with me?”

 The middle-aged man challenged Vitalia: "You, I want you to bet with me!"

The other party stretched out his finger and pointed directly at Vitalia, which was quite rude. The complacency of blocking the field made him forget everything. Here, he seemed to be the God of Gamblers.

The bodyguards around Vitalia were not angry, only funny, and the expressions on their faces were all disdain.

What is this country bumpkin talking about?

 Want to have a bet with Mr. Wei? Does he know who Wei is?

Vitalia was also amused by this idiot: "Are you sure?"

“Yes, I’m sure, I’m going to make you lose everything, I’m going to make you lose all your clothes!” the middle-aged man shouted angrily.

Qin Tao's voice was cold: "You'd better give up this unrealistic plan. You don't have the strength."

"What, I don't have this strength? I'm the luckiest person on the field right now, don't you dare? If you don't dare, then get out of here!" The middle-aged man said, pointing to his legs. between.

"Qin, it's okay. Since he wants to play, we will play with him." Vitalia said with a smile.

On land, no one dares to play with Vitalia anymore, they always lose!

 Since such a person who is not afraid of death appears on the sea, then Vitalia will help him.

So, everyone else at the table withdrew, leaving only Vitalia and the middle-aged man sitting face to face.

 The dealer started to deal the cards, and when he got the first one, the middle-aged man burst out laughing, a King of Spades! He picked out two chips in front of him and threw them into the center of the table.

Vitalia also smiled and turned over her card, it was just an ordinary ten of hearts!

If you were a professional blocker, you would have put your cards on the table at this time and looked at them quietly. However, Vitalia didn't pay attention to the person opposite at all. She would show whatever cards were dealt to her.

Vitalia also smiled and threw the same number of chips on the table.

 The dealer continues to deal the cards.

After getting the second card, the middle-aged man carefully pressed it with the first card, put it in front of his eyes, and slowly rubbed it. After rubbing it away, he felt a burst of joy on his face and turned over the second card. King of diamonds!

 What about the other side?

Vitalia continued to smile and turned over her cards, Jack of Hearts!

The middle-aged man took out a few more chips and threw them on the table: "Miss, it's not too late to admit defeat now. If you lose all your money later, you will really have to take off your clothes."

The middle-aged man said and looked around again, intending to get praise from other people. However, curiously, it was different from the scene just now. No one applauded him, but instead murmured in private. say what.

“It’s only two cards, let’s follow.” Vitalia continued to smile and threw out the same number of chips.

 The dealing of cards continues.

This time, the middle-aged man excitedly got the third club K, and the opponent was an ace of hearts.

“I’ve got a full house now, and your three cards are nothing.” The middle-aged man said, “Are you still following?”

“Follow me, I’ll double it.” Vitalia threw the chips on the table proudly, and a hill suddenly appeared on it.

 “It’s really a trench.”

 “This is a sure win.”

Hearing what these people said, the middle-aged man became even more curious. Why are these people taking a fancy to the woman in front of them? Obviously I am the luckiest tonight!

“Hey, it’s still too late for you to leave now.” Qin Tao finally spoke. He couldn’t bear the fact that the guy opposite him lost so miserably.

"Let's go? I'm from Xiamen University!" the middle-aged man said, throwing the same number of chips on the table: "Continue!"

 There are only a few chips left in front of him.

 The dealer continues to deal the cards.

“The fourth K, the fourth K!” The middle-aged man was chanting, and then he went to get the card. When he saw it, his face changed drastically. The card he had was actually just an Ace of Diamonds!

 “Add one million more.” The other person said, showing the card.

Everyone exclaimed in surprise.

 Queen of Hearts!

With this card, there is only one King of Hearts left to get the biggest royal flush!

 What about the one opposite?

 The middle-aged man turned over his Ace of Diamonds, with red eyes: "I don't believe it. The last card must be my King of Hearts! I'm still older than you!"

 After saying that, he pushed out all his chips, which was just enough for the last one million.

 “Alas, I’m still not giving up.” Qin Tao said with emotion: “This is a gambler!”

“Stop, I want to win all the cards on the table!” The middle-aged man said: “The last card must be my King of Hearts, deal the cards, deal the cards!”

 The last card is placed in front of the two people.

This time, Vitalia did not look at the cards, but said to Ivan next to her: "Look at the cards and add five million more!"

five million!

 The middle-aged man’s face turned dark.

At the blocking table, what you play is luck and money. If you don’t have money, even if you win the last card, you won’t be able to continue. You have to follow as much as others offer!

what to do?

 Where to get so much money?

The middle-aged man was extremely entangled in his heart. He looked at the mountains of chips piled on the table, and his eyes slowly showed madness.

 “I’m following!”

 As he spoke, he took off his gold watch and gold necklace and planned to put them on the table.

 “Those of yours are worthless.”

"I still have!"

 The middle-aged man took out his belt.

 “Are you going to take off your clothes?”

"I don't!"

 The blocking staff on the side conducted an on-site identification.

 “These are worth a hundred thousand in total.”

“How is it possible? I bought my belt for two million Hong Kong dollars! How can it be worth one hundred thousand Hong Kong dollars when all of it is added up?”

“I’m sorry, this is a high imitation, it should come from Yiwu.”

What? I went out all the way to the Pearl of the Orient, but ended up buying a high-end domestic imitation?

 “If you don’t have five million, please leave.”

“Yes, yes, I still have it!” The middle-aged man became nervous: “Of course I have it!”

He picked up a briefcase that he had always carried with him and carefully took out a bank card from the mezzanine inside: "The funds in it far exceed five million. I just didn't take it out. Now, I’ve pressed it on!”

 “Sorry, we need to check.”

 Ten minutes later.

"There is indeed five million in this bank card. Now, please sign an agreement to withdraw the money after disembarking, and you must tell us the password in advance."

                                               .

 The middle-aged man signed the name and put his fingerprint on it.

 “Okay, now you can look at the cards.”

　　The middle-aged man's hand reached for his cards with some trembling, but he still didn't look at it, but looked at the opponent.

 “I want to see her cards!”

“Okay, let’s see.” Vitalia said, gently turning over the cards and placing them on the table.

 Everyone looked over.

Vitalia's hand gently picked up the cards and put them on the table gracefully.

 Red, it’s red!

 With the pattern, it must be one from JQK!

Snapped!

 When the cards were placed on the table, everyone’s eyes could see clearly.

At this moment, the surroundings became quiet and no one spoke.

"K of Hearts? This is impossible, impossible. Mine is the King of Hearts. I am very lucky tonight!" The middle-aged man shouted: "Mine, mine!"

 After speaking, he turned over his cards.

At first glance, you knew it was impossible. It was black.

 Two of spades!

“Royal Flush wins!” The croupier said while using a special stick to move the chips towards Vitalia.

"No, no, no, she's cheating, she's cheating!" the middle-aged man shouted. He wanted to climb on the table and **** the chips back. There were already two men in uniforms, desperately trying to get the chips back. He pinned him down on the table.

 “Impossible, impossible, I am the king of blocking tonight!”

 “King Du? Do you know who is on the other side?” asked a person watching the excitement.

 “She’s just a woman selling meat! I can spend as much money as I want!”

 “You are the meat seller, I am the first female queen of Ma Hong Kong, Mr. Wei.”

When he heard this, the middle-aged man was already pressed on the table, his head was rubbing on the table, and his eyes were looking in the direction where Vitalia and others were drifting away.

 The first female queen?

Had he known she was this kind of woman, how could he ask for a fight with her? Why does such a big man come out to play this kind of game of pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger? Too much, too much!

At this time, his intestines were filled with regret, but it didn't make any sense anymore.

 Wait a minute, bank card, he can’t live without that card!

The middle-aged man wanted to say something, but he was already being carried out by two staff members.

"Please rest assured that as long as you abide by our rules here, you will enjoy VIP treatment here. Only those who do not abide by the rules will be stopped by us. This is also to ensure that everyone can have more fun." Responsible. People came out to speak.

 If you want to play, you must abide by the rules and be willing to accept defeat. Those who default on their money after losing will always be looked down upon.

At this time, Qin Tao and Vitalia had already walked to the top floor. He said to Xu Zhengyang beside him: "Find someone to keep an eye on this guy. He is desperate and may jump into the sea. We can't let him die so easily." Let him face justice."

Xu Zhengyang understood immediately: "Did he just use public funds?"

"I am just guessing." Qin Tao said: "If this is really the case, set him as a model and let everyone know that it is very shameful to do so."

Xu Zhengyang nodded.

The middle-aged man returned to the room and locked the door. Even the female companion he brought was kicked out by him.

 His body began to break out in cold sweat, and his face turned frighteningly white.

what to do? what to do?

The night is getting darker and darker, and the entire Aquarius slowly falls into a deep sleep. The swimming pool on the back deck is also empty.

The middle-aged man came here. He looked at the dark starry sky and the blue sea, gritted his teeth and started to climb over the railing.

He can't swim. If he jumps, he will definitely die. Now, he is sitting on the railing like this and starts to think about life. Should he jump or not?

Jump down and it will be over, but he still doesn’t want to die.

He looked at the sea, unable to make up his mind. Behind him, two black figures were slowly approaching. When they approached him, they suddenly took action and pulled him back.

"Let me go, let me go, let me die, let me die!" The middle-aged man thought he was someone who came to save him, and immediately started howling.

"If you want to die, wait until we get to the shore and we will take out five million before you die!" The voice was cold.

 It’s the crew of the blocked ship!

 No one stopped him from dying, but he must not die before the five million gambling funds were withdrawn.

 If he can't get it out, haha, it will make his life worse than death!

 A week later, the ship began to return. At this time, most of the passengers on the ship were empty-handed, and one-fifth of their money actually flowed into Vitalia's pocket.

Vitalia doesn’t want to win money. She just walks around every night and will play one or two games if someone strongly requests her. However, she is lucky.

On the last day, Vitalia was invited by the captain. I don’t know what they talked about. Anyway, she didn’t face any difficulties. When the ship was blocked and docked, Vitalia asked her men to exchange chips and went ashore happily with the money. .

“Brother Zhengyang, will we meet again?” Yang Qianer asked Xu Zhengyang.

Obviously, Yang Qian'er has developed a great liking for Xu Zhengyang after spending this week together, but Xu Zhengyang still looks so cold.

 “If we are destined to meet again, we will naturally meet again.”

Yang Qian'er's eyes were full of disappointment.

Qin Tao was also helpless. In this week, he created many opportunities for them, and once even let the two of them be alone in the same room.

 However, Xu Zhengyang unlocked the door in a few clicks.

This operation made Yang Qianer disappointed. Does she really have no charm?

Originally, I was prepared, but in the end, I watched the man I liked unlock the door and run away.

 Qin Tao also lamented that the strong-willed melon was not sweet, and he didn’t know what kind of woman Xu Zhengyang liked. In short, he should not worry about it in the future.

There was a noise from behind. The middle-aged man was closely protected by two people as he disembarked from the boat. This man wanted to make a loud noise to attract other people's attention, but no one cared about him.

This guy has become a laughing stock.

"The superiors have already found out this person's identity. As long as he goes back, he will be taken away for investigation immediately." Xu Zhengyang said.

 You are definitely a workaholic. Apart from work, you have nothing else to do?

"Next, we are going to Mingzhou to stay." Vitalia thought of something: "We have inspected the Aquarius star inside and out, and we have already figured out how to design a luxury jamming ship. I have a rough outline, and now I’m going to work with you designers in Mingzhou.”

"Okay." Qin Tao nodded: "Welcome to Mingzhou. There is no problem in safety work. Just take Ivan with you. However, in terms of daily life, you need a good and considerate secretary to take care of you."

Vitalia looked at Yang Qian'er: "Qian'er, you haven't been to the mainland yet, right? I'll take you to see it."

 “Okay, okay.” Yang Qianer nodded, then looked at Xu Zhengyang, hum, even if you are an iceberg, I will melt you!

This fate has come again, and nothing can stop it.

Xu Zhengyang didn’t say anything.

 When I returned to Mingzhou, it was already September.

 When the task of designing a 100,000-ton blockage ship was assigned to the first design office of Mingzhou Group, everyone became excited. This was an unprecedented ship type, and they could show off their skills again!

Qin Tao attended the three-day meeting and introduced all the feelings of boarding the Aquarius. Next, he met with Vitalia and the others.

 The shipyard is still busy, and the latest big event is that the first 039B foreign trade submarine built for the Pyramid Country is almost completed!

Unlike other open-air slipways or docks, submarines are built in closed workshops. Moreover, the submarine has not yet been outfitted. When it is built in sections, all the equipment has already been installed in place. After welding, , you can get into the water directly!

At the foreign defense exhibition, Mingzhou Group made a big splash and received a lot of orders. In terms of warships, Lao Ba ordered foreign trade frigates, and the Pyramid State was interested in submarines.

Of course, the Pyramid State moved very slowly. It was not until they visited the Third Design Bureau and met those old-fashioned designers that they finally made up their minds and paid a deposit of US$100 million.

With the long-staple cotton exchange agreement, the deposit was collected. Later, some follow-up funds were provided one after another, and the construction of the first foreign trade submarine was officially started.

 Although it took a long time when the order was originally ordered, when the construction officially started, the speed was quite fast.

On the one hand, it is because some old submarine workers joined, and on the other hand, it is also because the Mingzhou Group is well prepared.

The person in charge of the submarine project is Yang Youwei. He was originally responsible for submarine construction in other shipyards. Later, he was hired by the Mingzhou Group to supervise the construction of this submarine. At the same time, designers such as Kvasa also often They would come over to give guidance, and with the help of other veterans, even though it was their first time building a submarine, their progress was quite rapid.

When Qin Tao came to the inside of the closed factory, he saw that the workers had already begun to do the final finishing work: pasting the sound-absorbing tiles.

 In order to reduce its own noise, modern submarines must have silencer tiles. If the adhesion technology is not up to standard, they will fall off after sailing.

 Now, the workers are very serious.

Kvasa stood outside to guide. When he saw Qin Tao coming in, he immediately waved to him excitedly: "Qin, this submarine is finally going to be launched. It is very advanced. I think it is the strongest conventional submarine in this era. The overall performance of the submarine is 1.5 times that of Type 636!"

  It has an AIP system that can lurk underwater for more than 20 days, and it uses a tall pump-jet propeller at the back. It can be said that the most advanced technology in the submarine field is used for this submarine!

"That's right, our domestic submarine project can be completely stopped. After the submarine has been tested and has no defects, the navy will definitely purchase such submarines in large quantities." Yang Youwei also sighed with emotion.

When Yang Youwei first started working, he produced 033 submarines in the submarine factory. Later, he was responsible for the construction of 035 submarines. He was well aware of various data and defects of submarines.

What now?

 The submarine in front of me has absolutely no flaws!

 So, the navy will definitely like this kind of submarine.

"Then you have to have money." Qin Tao said: "We will not take on other projects before the Navy pays off its current debt. The Navy is covetous of our new submarines, so let them be covetous. !”

  What Qin Tao said was very grand.

"Yes, this is a very advanced submarine. We are very satisfied with it. Mr. Mamish is bringing people from the Pyramid Kingdom to attend the launching ceremony of this submarine!" The Pyramid Kingdom stayed at the Mingzhou Shipyard to supervise the entire Aboutrika emerged from the submarine during the construction process. After seeing Qin Tao, he said to him very excitedly.

“Mr. Qin, can you also attend our submarine launching ceremony?”

"Of course." Qin Tao nodded: "Not just me, I think many officials from our navy will also come to attend this ceremony. This submarine is a witness to the friendship between us."

The Navy is definitely coming, and the Navy will also send some people to follow the submarine to participate in sea trials to test the actual performance of the submarine. After all, this is another big step!

 The Pyramid State has a very good relationship with the East. It has purchased many warships from the East in the past. Every time, naval officers attended the ceremony, and this time was of course no exception.

After Qin Tao finished speaking, he looked at the rear of the submarine.

 “Before going into the water, find a piece of cloth to wrap your back.”
