The things happening in Macau aren't just rumors. If those gweilos really held all the power, Mr. Ho wouldn't be the most well-known person here.
Ultimately, it's because these gweilos don't have the strength they used to. As long as Macau doesn't experience any major unrest and they can save face, these gweilos will turn a blind eye and pretend nothing happened, happily continuing to make their money.
In the casino, Ye Yaozu casually exchanged a million in chips and, with A Ji, began observing the scene.
"A Ji, do you know what the most profitable business in a casino is?" Ye Yaozu said slowly.
A Ji shook his head. He wasn't really clear on what the casino's most profitable business was.
"The most profitable business in a casino is connections," Ye Yaozu said with a smile.
Anyone who comes to this kind of casino is rich and powerful. Making connections with these people is like gaining a new contact, and casinos never lack for people like that.
Of course, the prerequisite is that you have the power to be part of their circle.
"In my opinion, the biggest advantage of a casino is connections, money comes second," Ye Yaozu said with a smile, thinking of the Macau of the future. When it comes to Macau, there's one family that can't be ignored: the Ho family!
The Ho family's influence in Macau is unquestionable. Even after the passing of Gambling King Ho, the family has remained firmly established in Macau, and that's the power of connections.
If the Ho family was only about running casinos, they would have been wiped out long ago.
But the fact that they survived and thrived until later shows a lot. What you see is often deliberately presented to you. Even in the future, the real Ho family is everywhere in Macau's industries.
This is their base, and unless the Ho family is stupid, they wouldn't give it up.
"But getting close to the Ho family isn't easy right now," Ye Yaozu said slowly. He's not qualified yet. The only one in the Hong Xing who can connect with the Ho family is Jiang Tian Sheng.
Even in front of Gambling King Ho, Jiang Tian Sheng is a junior. In the end, Jiang Tian Sheng is just the head of the Hong Xing, in a harsher sense, just the leader of a bunch of thugs, not someone who can be considered important.
Don't think the Ho family's connections are only in Macau. They have a vast network of relationships across Hong Kong, Taiwan, and even the mainland. Otherwise, why would the Ho family still be standing?
"Zu Ge, there will be opportunities in the future," A Ji said after a moment of silence.
Ye Yaozu smiled and said nothing. That's just A Ji's personality, you can't expect him to think too much. It's already good enough that he can say a comforting word.
Just then, a woman accidentally bumped into Ye Yaozu. As she was about to fall, Ye Yaozu quickly caught her by the waist.
Jiang Yun Yun (Supreme Strategy, First-Rate Talent) grabbed Ye Yaozu in panic.
"Miss, are you alright?" Ye Yaozu asked with a smile, looking at the flustered Jiang Yun Yun.
Jiang Yun Yun regained her senses, looked at Ye Yaozu who was holding her, and thought to herself, so handsome!
Looking at the man in front of her, dressed in a well-fitting suit, with tousled hair, a charming and gentle smile, and gold-rimmed glasses, anyone would say, "Handsome young master!"
"I'm fine." Jiang Yun Yun recovered, her face slightly flushed.
Ye Yaozu smiled at the woman in front of him, Jiang Yun Yun, the cousin of Jiang Shan He from the Wan Wan Gang. The Wan Wan Gang is a gang from Taiwan, no weaker than the Three Harmonies Gang.
"Thank you, sir, I'm Jiang Yun Yun, what about you?" Jiang Yun Yun asked Ye Yaozu, her face slightly flushed. This was the first time she had spoken to a stranger.
"Ye Yaozu, here from Hong Kong. Miss, are you from Taiwan?" Ye Yaozu said with a smile.
"How did you know?" Jiang Yun Yun asked Ye Yaozu curiously.
"Your accent." Ye Yaozu smiled.
Hearing Ye Yaozu's words, Jiang Yun Yun felt a bit silly, her face even redder.
Just then, a burly man walked over.
"Yun Yun, are you alright?" A rough voice asked, concerned for Jiang Yun Yun.
"Cousin, I'm fine, it's thanks to Mr. Ye, otherwise I would have been embarrassed." Jiang Yun Yun smiled and introduced Ye Yaozu to Jiang Shan He.
Jiang Shan He looked at Ye Yaozu, his eyes filled with surprise, then looked at A Ji behind Ye Yaozu, subconsciously sensing danger.
While he may appear rough and reckless, Jiang Shan He is a scheming person. In a word, he's bold and cautious, far more complex than he appears.
In the original story, he went to a casino in Alaska and installed a bomb to force the casino's supreme boss, Lei Li, into a gamble with him, and he managed to escape unscathed, which shows how daring he really is.
"Thank you, Mr. Ye," Jiang Shan He said nonchalantly.
"It's nothing, especially with a beautiful lady like Miss Jiang, I couldn't bear to see you fall," Ye Yaozu said with a smile.
Hearing Ye Yaozu's words, Jiang Yun Yun blushed but was also happy.
Then, Ye Yaozu and Jiang Shan He exchanged a few polite words, and Jiang Shan He left with Jiang Yun Yun.
"Cousin, you were going to watch the casino, why did you leave so soon?" Jiang Yun Yun asked Jiang Shan He, confused.
"That Ye guy isn't simple. I'll have people investigate his background," Jiang Shan He said in a deep voice.
Hearing this, Jiang Yun Yun immediately understood what Jiang Shan He meant, but she remained silent. She knew that Jiang Shan He was doing this for her, afraid that Ye Yaozu had ulterior motives in approaching her.
Jiang Yun Yun is definitely not just a pretty face. If she was, Jiang Shan He wouldn't bring her along everywhere.
On Ye Yaozu's side, after going around the casino, he brought A Ji back to the hotel.
"I didn't expect to run into an acquaintance while out for a walk," Ye Yaozu thought to himself. Jiang Shan He, the Wan Wan Gang, this could be a good bridgehead for getting involved in Taiwan.
But for now, there's still a lot to do. We'll talk about it later. No need to rush, there's plenty of time.
