I'm reborn and I'm an international student again?

"Let me go right now!" An anxious Chen Xi pulled hard and actually tore off the strong man's ear. However, even so, his body was still stuck tightly in the container and he couldn't move.

Seeing the sharp blade in the tattooed man's hand getting closer, Chen Xi made a desperate move, wrapped his legs tightly around the sturdy man's waist, and then performed a move called "Dragon Subduing Tail".

Using the inertia of his body falling, he miraculously pushed the strong man's body to one side a little.

The dagger that the tattooed man originally aimed at deviated in direction and stabbed fiercely into the sturdy man's body.

"Ah!" The sturdy man cried out in pain, and in anger he turned into a strong man. He picked up Chen Xi and threw him out like throwing a shot put, and he hit the tattooed man head-on.

The two men fell heavily to the ground, and dust flew everywhere.

After being stabbed by the knife and fighting with all his might before, the strong man was already exhausted and collapsed after standing for not long.

Chen Xi was dizzy from the fall and his head hit the ground. He suddenly felt a commotion all around him and the sound of countless footsteps.

When he regained consciousness, he looked around and found that the tattooed man had disappeared without a trace.

"How are you? Are you hurt?" Alin's concerned voice came to my ears.

"It's okay. Have they caught the person?" Chen Xi touched his aching back.

"Caught one."

"What, you just caught one?"

"It's good to have one. I didn't even see the shadows of the others. Look, including the one on the ground, there are two of them." Alin pointed at the sturdy man lying motionless on the ground.

"This guy can't be dead." Looking at the man with a knife still stuck in his body, Chen Xi frowned.

There was blood all around the strong man. Fortunately, the knife was not pulled out, otherwise he would have lost a lot of blood.

After checking the other person's body and finding that he was still breathing, Chen Xi breathed a sigh of relief.

After a long time, the police car and ambulance arrived slowly.

After the two white police officers got out of the car and asked about the situation, they took out their walkie-talkies to call for reinforcements.

The previous boxes were found to contain a large amount of contraband, which made the police officers excited.

Such a big case is a great achievement!
"Why do you suddenly want to check those boxes?" A Lin pulled Chen Xi aside and asked in a low voice.

"intuition!"

"Blow it!"

Seeing Chen Xi running back to the train with a mouth full of words, A Lin did not ask any more questions.

Chen Xi really didn't know. He just remembered that the Donald Duck tattoo was very familiar, but he couldn't remember where it had appeared before. Combined with the fact that something bad had appeared in the container of the logistics company before, he was subconsciously responsible for what he had done.

"From now on, we will send someone to carefully check every ship's loading." Chen Xi instructed.

Alin didn't say anything.

You know, there are countless boxes loaded at the port every day, and no place can check every one of them.

If we do this, it will greatly affect efficiency.

This is why there are always reports in the news about customs finding contraband.

Think about so many containers and so many different kinds of cargo, it would be difficult to detect some small items hidden in them.

Chen Xi also knew that this was an impossible task, but in this sensitive period, it would be better to be strict.

"Aren't you going to check all the cargo on the ship? I mean, we should find some sniffer dogs." Seeing the police officer trying to leave with the cargo, Chen Xi immediately stopped him.

"How to investigate the case is our business. What you need to do now is to go back and give us a statement." The white police officer was very domineering and did not thank them for the credit they had just received.

"Fuck." Chen Xi couldn't help but swear.

Although the police officer didn't understand, he sensed some unfriendliness in the tone. He glared at Chen Xi and put his hand on the holster.

Seeing this, Chen Xi could only curse in his heart.

More than an hour later, inside the police station.

"Are those people employees of your company?" a fat police officer asked while taking notes.

"How would I know? That shouldn't be the case." Chen Xi spread his hands.

"Isn't this company yours? How come you don't know?"

"There are so many people in the company, and it's impossible for me to know everyone. I have to check the employee list to find out."

"Then why did you suddenly ask to check the box?"

"Because I noticed something was wrong with one of them, and they looked a little panicked."

"What's wrong?"

"He had a tattoo that looked familiar to me."

"What tattoo?"

"Donald Duck!"

"..."

"Cough cough."

Chen Xi's words "Donald Duck" made the two policemen cover their mouths and laugh.

Who would get a tattoo of this?

"Where have you seen this tattoo before?" the police officer asked again after laughing enough.

"I can't remember, but I remember this guy had a Mickey Mouse on his other arm."

The word Mickey Mouse almost made the two policemen laugh to death.

The tattoos of foreigners are generally completely different from those of Asians. They are either lightning or icons like skulls. Some also like to tattoo Chinese characters or dragons.

But they don't know the meaning of the words, and some even tattooed the word "idiot".

As for Asians, they like to tattoo things with Western elements on their bodies.

After chatting with the two police officers for a while, Chen Xi came to a conclusion.

There is only one possibility as to why these people are so slow in handling the case.

That is to have meat for every meal.

If the restaurant is closed down, how will we eat in the future?

The foreigners are not stupid either, they are now fully aware of the ancient Eastern practices.

As for the two people who were arrested, Chen Xi was too lazy to care about how the police would investigate.

After going to the hospital for a check-up, he found that there was nothing wrong with his body. He looked at the time and it was already twelve o'clock in the evening.

When Chen Xi thought about driving more than half an hour to get home, he sent a text message to Jin Nana and Saori.

After saying goodbye to Alin, Chen Xi went to Crown to open a hotel. Just after taking a shower and preparing to lie down, the doorbell of the room rang.

After opening the door, Ma Yueling walked straight in, which did not surprise him.

As soon as he entered Crown's territory, facial recognition transmitted his data immediately. In addition, he used a black card to book a room, so Ma Yueling was naturally aware that he was coming.

"Sister Ling, it's so late, what's the matter? I'm not used to being alone with a man and a woman in a room." Chen Xi tightened his bathrobe.

"What's there to be uncomfortable with?" Ma Yueling chuckled and looked him up and down.

"Lawrence talked to me about it, and he thinks you have a lot of ideas about the gambling industry. You said you've never gambled before, so how come you're so good at this?" Ma Yueling found a chair to sit down, crossed her legs and looked at the other person.

"You don't need to gamble to understand this. Analysts in casinos are mathematicians and psychologists. Their job is to design the rules of the game and ways to make money from customers. As long as you understand a little bit about human nature, you can figure it out." Chen Xi lied.

"You gave him so many ideas, why don't you give me some? How can we increase Crown's revenue?" Ma Yueling blinked.

"What's the matter, Sister Ling? Is the relationship between you and Parker tense now?" Chen Xi smiled.

Ma Yueling didn't say anything, just nodded.

The top management of Crown is in a mess now, and many difficult things happen every day. The conflict between the casino and the government is getting more and more intense, and it is nothing more than the issue of paying taxes.

Now that casino revenue has decreased, taxes will naturally decrease year by year.

But in the eyes of the authorities, this became an excuse for deliberately not paying taxes.

So if we want to resolve this contradiction, we must solve the income problem.

"The Tu'ao Casino is different from the Macao District. Most of the customers here are local white people, which is similar to the one in Da Piaoliang. When local white people go to the casino, young people like to play Black Jack and Texas Hold'em. The elderly like to play slot machines. In the Macao District, there are very few slot machines in the casino. Even old men and women are unwilling to play. But in Tu'ao, it is completely the opposite.

In the Macao area, there are many pickpockets and money changers, which are not seen in places like Australia where the management is strict. Without money changers, customers will place fewer bets. What I mean is that we should offer more big prizes and new ways to play to attract customers, and don't focus all our attention on the casino.

You can see from the city map of Melbourne that Crown is located in the center. If guests want to play here, they have to drive a long way from all over Melbourne to get here. So how much money can you make playing slot machines? Maybe it's not even enough for gas.

Why not cooperate with the lottery center and place some slot machines there. But for this kind of thing, you still need to have in-depth communication with the authorities..."

Chen Xi proposed a solution.

Foreigners are a little different from Asians, and there are rarely news reports of foreigners becoming addicted to gambling on a large scale.

They go to casinos just to relax, but only a small number of them become addicted and end up losing everything.

Besides, slot machines are something that can be played with a few Australian dollars each time, so it is unlikely to drain people's pockets. According to my memory from my previous life, the Australian government has not objected, so it should still be feasible.

The various money-making projects in the Australian region are not suitable for Australia, so we can only make plans according to local rules.

Chen Xilai has been in Australia for a long time and he discovered a problem.

That is computer games, which are very fascinating in China, but not so addictive to foreigners here. He has never seen anyone not letting their children play games.

Even Internet cafes are open to minors, but places like KTVs require adults to enter.

There are many factors that contribute to this situation.

The first is cultural differences.

In Western culture, personal freedom, independence and self-control are regarded as important values. This cultural background may make Westerners more inclined to remain rational and self-disciplined when facing games or gambling.

In contrast, Asian culture may place more emphasis on collectivism and family values, which may sometimes lead to individuals lacking sufficient self-control when facing temptation, making them more susceptible to addiction. But this does not mean that all Asians are prone to addiction, it is just a cultural tendency.

Let’s look at it from the perspective of social support and education.

Western countries generally attach great importance to family education, and parents usually teach their children how to rationally face the temptations in life, including games and gambling. This kind of education helps to cultivate children's self-control ability and sense of responsibility.

In Western society, there is a relatively complete social support system, such as psychological counseling, rehabilitation centers, etc. These institutions provide timely help and support to those who may be addicted.

"Why did you come to the hotel to sleep today? Did you have a conflict with Saori?" Putting aside business matters, Ma Yueling was curious about his personal affairs.

There was no other way, Chen Xi could only tell him exactly what happened tonight.

"I don't know either. Australia is in chaos right now. You should be more careful." Ma Yueling's expression did not change after hearing this.

Chen Xi knew that with the other party's ability, she must know something, but she was unwilling to say it, so Chen Xi didn't dare to ask.

"After graduation, Saori will go back to China with you?" After chatting for a while, Ma Yueling suddenly stood up and prepared to leave. Before leaving, she suddenly turned around and looked at Chen Xi seriously.

"Uh, I don't know. She said that she wanted me to go to Sakura Country to meet her parents this year." Chen Xi answered subconsciously.

"What about Jin Nana? And that Xia Lian." Ma Yueling chuckled.

"Forehead……"

"Got it, go to bed early."

Seeing that the man couldn't answer, Ma Yueling turned and walked out of the room.

"Oh, do you treat me as your own brother? You are so concerned about my private life." After the door was closed, Chen Xi muttered to himself in the air.

When I picked up my phone, I saw a bunch of text messages from Jin Nana and Saori.

These two women haven't slept yet, and the little Korean guy actually treats him as his boyfriend.

Tsk tsk tsk!
I replied to two messages to reassure the two women.

He touched his back and it still hurt a little.

Damn, that idiot was so ruthless.

Where have I seen that Donald Duck tattoo before? Why can’t I remember it?
Chen Xi, lying on the bed, fell asleep while thinking.

The next day, Chen Xi woke up and looked at the time. He had classes today, so he drove to school quickly.

"Classmate, do you want me to write your paper for you..." As soon as we arrived at the parking lot, the man with glasses appeared again.

He had obviously forgotten about Chen Xi and started introducing him as if they were meeting for the first time.

"No, no, you're not afraid of being caught. Be careful about being reported." Chen Xi kindly reminded the other party.

"Wealth and honor are achieved through risk, so there's nothing to be afraid of." The man with glasses was obviously not the kind of honest man who studied hard. He didn't care about Chen Xi's warning at all.

"How much can you earn every month? You work so hard! You'll be deported if you get caught."

"It's a lot. This is considered a high income in any country." The man with glasses looked proud.

"For ghostwriting, the payment is made through bank transfer. If someone reports it and the police investigate, you're done for." Having done ghostwriting before, Chen Xi was very clear about the payment process.

These people usually set up several accounts, and after the contact person receives the money, they will distribute the funds to the writers once the paper results are out.

"There are many ways to pay, you can pay however you want, except cash, of course."

"Oh? Then tell me what other payment methods are there besides bank transfer?" Chen Xi became interested when he heard it.

"Why are you asking so many questions? You're not doing ghostwriting." The man with glasses looked around and his expression became a little alert.

"I need to know the payment method before I can write for you."

"That makes sense. There are many payment methods, such as bank transfer, gift cards, virtual currency, etc...."

"Gift cards? What the hell is that?"

"It's an Apple recharge card. Only your home has internet access, and you don't even know this." The man with glasses rolled his eyes and looked at Chen Xi as if he were an alien.

There are many Apple gift cards in supermarkets in Australia, which are the money recharged in the mall.

This type of recharge card will have promotions during major discount days such as Christmas, and you can often buy high-value recharge points at a low price.

The cost of ghostwriting is generally not consistent with the amount of the recharge card. For example, the cost of ghostwriting is 1,300 Australian dollars.

The customer had three recharge cards with a balance of 500 yuan each, so when he paid, he had to pay 1,500 yuan. The other party didn't give him change for the remaining 200 yuan, which meant he could make more money.

The customers bought the cards at a discount anyway, so they naturally wouldn't care about these things.

"How do you trade virtual currency? Is it Bitcoin?" Chen Xi asked tentatively.

"Bitcoin? That crappy thing isn't worth much, why would I need it?" The man with glasses shook his head.

"So what is the virtual currency you are talking about?"

"I'll tell you in secret, don't tell anyone else. Currently, I'm the only one who supports this payment method...the currency I'm talking about is the Overseas Returnee Coin!" The man with glasses covered his mouth with his hand and said quietly.

Overseas returnee currency?
Chen Xi was shocked.

Then he smiled, pointed at himself and asked, "Do you know who I am?"

"You? How would I know who you are?"

The answer from the man with glasses left him speechless.

Damn, you are using Haigui currency to trade, but you still don’t know who the vice president of the association is?

"Are you from the Overseas Chinese Association?" Chen Xi asked again.

"No."

"So how can you trade with Turtle Coins?"

"It's none of your business. You ask too many questions. If you ask again, you will have to pay!" The man with glasses felt more and more that there was something wrong with the young man in front of him.

However, the next second, a green hundred-dollar bill appeared in front of him. (End of this chapter)
