After listening to Qin Xiaobing's narration, both Li Shun and I fell silent. I was moved by this history and was touched, not just by Qin Xiaobing alone, but by that group of people from that era, my father. I now understand the meaning behind Qin Xiaobing's statement that he is a Golden Triangle Man, all the people here have no nationality.

"Holy shit! I can't believe how awesome you are to be an internationalist soldier and a battalion commander." After a long while, Li Shun began to sigh with emotion.

"Boss Li is too kind. In the past, I was just a warrior, but now, I am just a guide that led people to and from the border of China to provide for their families." Qin Xiaobing said lightly: "To me, past beliefs and ideals are just air. Impulse and arrogance are just games, what I am most concerned about now is how to live a good life today, and how to earn enough money to support my wife and four children."

Qin Xiaobing's words made me exclaim endlessly. A person without faith and ideals, without impulses and lofty sentiments, what kind of person would he be?

"En, Old Qin, no — — Battalion Commander Qin. I better call you Battalion Commander Qin, this will show my respect for my superior." Li Shun said half-truthfully as he patted Qin Xiaobing's shoulders affectionately: "Alright, you can help us guide them to the end this time. When we return from our activities, I will pay you twice the amount. It's also a tribute to an internationalist revolutionary fighter. "

"Boss Li, thank you for your good intentions. However, you should still call me Old Qin. Don't call me Battalion Commander Qin, don't call me chief … Now I'm your guide, and you're my boss. " Qin Xiaobing was obviously very happy, and said: "When I heard this form of address, my heart immediately trembled, and I think back to those bloody years."

"Mm …" Alright, then I'll follow the leader's instructions... Sigh — — look, I spoke wrongly again, "Li Shun hurriedly corrected him." Then let us listen to Old Qin's … Old Qin, how far is it to the border? "

"We'll be there in 20 minutes, we're out of the border, and in 10 minutes we'll reach Mai Zhayang." Qin Xiaobing said.

"We don't have any formalities, is it convenient to leave the country? "Insurance?" Li Shun asked Qin Xiaobing, this is also something that I am concerned about.

"Follow me. Don't worry. No one will investigate us …" The guards are very familiar with me. " Qin Xiaobing said somewhat proudly.

"Why can you enter without formalities?" I asked Qin Xiaobing.

"This is the anti-government controlled State of Kachin. The Burmese government has no control over it. Passports are not used here. Only with a familiar face can they be used." Qin Xiaobing replied: "The border between China and Myanmar is too long, there are countless natural passages, and the people on the border usually head out of the country to go there. They are not well regulated, but to come from Myanmar to our side, investigation is much stricter, mainly on drug trafficking."

After hearing what Qin Xiaobing had to say, I looked at Li Shun in the rearview mirror. Li Shun turned his head and looked out the window expressionlessly.

"Boss Li, where are we going after we leave this country?" Qin Xiaobing asked Li Shun.

"New East!" Li Shun replied.

"Okay, oh... Heh heh, this New East is one of Mai Zhayang's most popular casinos. "Qin Xiaobing laughed and said," I had thought that Boss Li was just trying to get some free goods or some jade stones.

"Play around with some money and get me some jade. Help me ask around, I want to buy some to give to someone else. As for the white goods, I don't want to die, there's no need for that!" Li Shun said seriously.

When I heard it, I felt relieved. So Li Shun was here to gamble and play, not drug trafficking.

Soon we were at the border, and after paying the border guards, we crossed the border without any formalities or hindrances. Residents on both sides of the border watched us lazily, as if they were used to it.

Qin Xiaobing drove past the main gate of the town, passing through a row of white buildings advertising hotels, restaurants, gym, and massage parlors, and headed straight for the center of the city.

What drew my attention was that the advertising messages on both sides of the road were in Chinese. At first glance, Mai Zhayang looked like a border town of China, but when I saw the uniform of the police and the Burmese on the license plate, I realized that it was a foreign country.

"Mai Zhayang has a total of 11 large scale casinos, the New East is one of the biggest there, all of them are Chinese gamblers." Qin Xiaobing introduced the place to us as we walked: "Don't think that the border casinos are dilapidated, unscrupulous, and can cheat. In the New East, there are skilled personnel watching from behind every table, and every corner of the hall also has closed-circuit television aimed at the gamblers."

"The casino owners here often say that if the gamblers feel that the casinos are unprofessional, they won't come back, so many casinos are very professional... Of course, if they discovered any cheating, their methods would be very ruthless … Here, the spear was the law, and power came from the spear … The affairs of the dead often happen! "

From Qin Xiaobing's words, I smelt a hint of blood.

Soon, our car entered a group of villas that were three or four stories high, and neatly dressed attendants came to greet us, bowing their heads as they invited us in. Many of the cars in the villa were decorated with mainland plates. I learned later that besides being a casino, this villa was also a pawnshop, which could be used as a mobile phone, jewelry or car.

When the car stopped and was about to get off, Qin Xiaobing took out something wrapped in black cloth from beneath his seat. He handed it over to Li Shun and said, "Boss Li, this place is not like the mainland.

Li Shun took it and opened it. I saw that it was a pitch black, shiny 54 handgun and several tens of bullets.

Li Shun weighed the gun in his hand and then handed it over to me: "Take it!"

I pressed the gun into my pocket and suddenly thought of a question. "Would it be a problem to bring the gun into the casino?"

Qin Xiaobing shook his head: "It's fine, there's no security in a gambling den, just swagger around and do it. Hehe, since they are opening a casino, they are not afraid of people robbing a casino, inside and outside the casino there are uniformed security guards with guns."

I looked around, and sure enough, there were a few black-clad men in sunglasses lurking in the surrounding woods.

Before we got off the car, Li Shun told me: "I have a mission for you. You must pay attention to all the stages and procedures of the casino, starting from the moment you enter the door. Every detail must be noted. "

I did not know what Li Shun meant by that, so I nodded.

We got out of the car and entered a casino with no security gate. There were eight tables arranged in two rows in a 300-square-meter hall.

If I hadn't seen the sign in Burmese when I crossed the road, I would have thought that I would still be in Yunnan, because not only were the gamblers Chinese here, even the common language was Mandarin and the gambling money was settled in yuan.

The hall was filled with "Bacarone", with all the gamblers sitting in a circle. At each table stood five young female dealer. Every time the cards opened, they would call out in unison, "Zhuang, Xian, Zhuang, Xian." It was the same posture as the casino Trademark Miss I had seen in the movies.

After Li Shun came in, he went straight to the counter. Qin Xiaobing and I stood at the vacant spot and looked around.

At this time, Qin Xiaobing said to me: "Little brother, look at the gambling atmosphere of this casino, if you can't come here sometimes, you can ask them to help you bet, that way you won't have to leave the country, it would be much safer."

He reminded me that almost seventy percent of the people on the scene were wearing headphones and were talking to real gamblers in the country over the phone to help them make their bets. A calculator, a pen, and a form paper were placed at hand. The former was used to calculate the amount of money won or lost, while the latter was used to record the amount of money bet and the result of the opening.

I found that, compared to ordinary gamblers, the horsemen of these generations bet more, often in the tens of thousands.

"Who are the people who are betting on their behalf?" "He's so generous even when making a move!" I asked Qin Xiaobing.

"Most of them are government officials and state-owned Executive. These people are all very generous and are big clients of casinos." Qin Xiaobing said.

"Are they not afraid of being cheated by gambling through the internet?" I asked.

Qin Xiaobing pointed to the camera on the wall and said, "No, guests can clearly see the entire gamble table through the online videos.

"Is the casino safe? Will we be safe if we win the money? " I asked.

"Of course. Every casino has a security guard who is responsible for escorting the guests out of the country. No matter how much you win, it's not a problem." Qin Xiaobing said, "A casino's reputation is very good. Of course, you can't be discovered that there's some trickery to play with, or else, that's another matter. Whether you can keep your head or not is a question … The family had been in business for many years, and it was owned by Macao people, and next door by Hong Kong people. In this line of work, credibility is very important, so that we can have customers who can return. There was once a Taiwanese who set up a place in Taipei who got paid by some experts and then sneaked back to Taipei. "

"Are there any tricks to opening a casino?" I sized up the several dealer ladies who were dealing their cards.

Qin Xiaobing's expression changed as he looked around, and said to me: "Little brother, you are not allowed to talk about this here … "Alright, you guys go ahead and play. I'll be going out first. If there's anything else, give me a call."

Saying that, Qin Xiaobing handed me a name card: China Mobile's number!

Mai Zhayang used China Mobile's communication device, the electricity was supplied by Teng Chong, and there were also a few professional Chinese banks on the streets.

As I walked around, Li Shun had disappeared. Who knows which room he went to to gamble in.

After walking around for a while, I found a small card in front of a large table. A female dealer came out of the VIP lounge at the side of the hall, a slip of paper in his hand.

"Who are those people in the VIP lounge?" Can I go in and make a bet? " I asked the dealer, who was checking the numbers on the water sheet.

The female dealer looked up at me and smiled. "Not bad. A hundred thousand people can enter the VIP lounge and bet ten thousand. "Sir, please come in. The boss who came with you just now has entered. He's in private room 2."

I couldn't help but be surprised. So it turns out that my every action is controlled by someone else. Even this female dealer knows who I came with.

I smiled and said, "With such high bets, is there anyone who wants to play?"

"Why is there no one here? We have a lot of customers in our ten or so VIP booths, and we can also exchange chips on behalf of customers. Give me a bank card or a cheque, and we'll all settle the transaction in RMB. I'm just going out to help the owner who came with you to exchange the 500 thousand in chips. " The dealer handed the list to the casino staff at the counter.
