Chapter 16
"Xu SIR, what are you doing?"
Wu Feng frowned and walked over wrapped in a bathrobe: "Our place here is very legitimate!"
He had full confidence when he said this!
In fact, at this time, the Dafuhao Sauna was truly a rare, legitimate entertainment venue.
It was because of Wu Feng; he didn't want the sauna to become a den of filth, as he certainly wouldn't be comfortable living there.
If a guest took a fancy to a certain technician, they could register at the front desk and go out to have fun.
In any case, there was one rule: no messing around inside the sauna!
Plus Guanzaisen's big-mouthed promotion, announcing to everyone that the sauna staff went for medical checkups every half month. With the medical reports as proof, the Dafuhao Sauna had become a breath of fresh air on Shanghai Street.
Who knew, the sauna's business didn't decline; instead, it became even more popular.
They lost some lechers, but gained quite a few serious guests.
For example, police officers from the Mong Kok Police Station often came to the sauna for entertainment after work.
It wasn't that there weren't more legitimate places, like lounge bars, but those were places for so-called stylish people; how could ordinary Hong Kong police have that kind of quality and financial resources?
When they went out for entertainment, they also liked the liveliness, but didn't want to get involved with those unsafe things.
Plus, the football atmosphere in the sauna was intense, and Wu Feng intentionally revealed some match information he had analyzed, so quite a few off-duty police officers came here to play and relax.
Wu Feng doing this was also intentionally building connections!
After all, as a nightclub security boss, one had to deal with the police; one couldn't have the society come forward for everything, right?
And look, the effect was showing!
The leading officer was an Inspector from the Mong Kok Police Station, surnamed Xu, about forty years old.
They certainly hadn't had any interaction before; it was only since the World Cup started that Inspector Xu had actually become a regular at the Dafuhao Sauna, and they had slowly built a relationship.
They weren't very close, but saying hello was no problem.
"Routine official business, Feng Zai, don't make things difficult for me!"
Inspector Xu said in a low voice while signaling his subordinates to get to work: "The police station received a report saying that there is an illegal gambling den here in the sauna, so we certainly have to come and take a look!"
"Which bastard has such low class!"
Wu Feng didn't avoid Inspector Xu and cursed in a low voice: "Who would do such a thing in their own venue?"
Inspector Xu was also quite speechless; he often came here to play, so he naturally knew there was no problem with the sauna.
Hong Yi was just a small society; how could they have the strength to open an underground gambling book?
"Everyone, don't be nervous, it's just a routine inspection by the police station!"
Seeing that many guests were a bit panicked, Wu Feng hurriedly shouted: "The sauna is a legitimate entertainment venue; there are no violations. Everyone surely knows this, it's no problem!"
These words indeed calmed down the guests present.
In fact, among the guests soaking in the pools, there were quite a few off-duty police officers from the Mong Kok Police Station, and they all looked normal and weren't panicked in the slightest.
Among the police officers Inspector Xu brought for the inspection, there were also quite a few regulars of the sauna!
Seeing their somewhat playful expressions, one knew they didn't harbor any malice.
In fact, that was indeed the case; several of the inspecting police officers were even standing by the pools, chatting in low voices with their colleagues who were soaking, the atmosphere quite relaxed and natural.
It was as if this inspection was just a routine formality.
"Feng Zai, I saw you holding forth just now; were you analyzing the matches again?"
Inspector Xu wasn't angry at the slackness of his subordinates; instead, he asked in a low voice.
"It's just the same old stuff, anyway, I believe in it myself!"
Wu Feng chuckled and beckoned: "Xu SIR, let's just sit and wait for the inspection results!"
He invited Inspector Xu to sit on a lounge chair nearby, called for the shop girl to bring soda and snacks, and watched the police officers Inspector Xu brought check slowly.
At the same time, he kept answering Inspector Xu's questions.
That's right, Inspector Xu was a casual fan, and the kind who especially liked to play.
The reason he became a regular at the sauna was that he was very interested in the football salon here, and at the same time, he highly approved of Wu Feng's analysis of the matches.
The result was that he won money, and he won quite a bit, all of which was clean, legitimate money.
Not just him, but quite a few Mong Kok police officers also earned some money, more or less, because they approved of Wu Feng's analysis.
Because of this, they were not only regulars at the sauna, but their relationship with Wu Feng was also quite good!
Didn't you see that even at a time like this, Inspector Xu didn't forget to ask Wu Feng about his views on the upcoming matches?
With interests involved, Wu Feng could be said to be a god of wealth in the eyes of Inspector Xu and many police officers; how could they have a bad attitude and deliberately target him?
In fact, the information he revealed when he first walked in was already a violation according to police station regulations.
Wu Feng repeated his analysis again, then said with a smile: "Still, be careful and diversify your investments!"
"Although I don't favor the host country's team to go all the way, I still have to guard against it!"
"Feng Zai, you're right!"
Inspector Xu nodded repeatedly: "If one could accurately guess such things, wouldn't they make a fortune?"
"I don't dare to hope for a fortune!"
Wu Feng said bluntly: "But making a small fortune is no problem!"
While they were talking, the inspection had already ended, and there was certainly no problem.
And look, even Guanzaisen didn't come downstairs to make a fuss.
The police officers who followed him greeted Wu Feng enthusiastically one by one, and said they would definitely come to the sauna for entertainment after work; they still wanted to hear more information about the matches.
Damn, the gambling craze in Hong Kong is just too intense!
Wu Feng muttered in his heart, sending off the team of inspecting police, but his mood wasn't beautiful.
Before leaving, Inspector Xu still whispered some information to him: "A guest suffered a loss in a venue you manage, and that's why they reported it to the police station!"
"That guy himself doesn't amount to much, but his father is still somewhat famous!"
"The police station sent me to bring people for an inspection to avoid trouble!"
"The target of the inspection isn't just the Dafuhao Sauna, but also other venues you manage!"
"If you have connections, find that guy who reported it as soon as possible and resolve it privately; otherwise, if he keeps reporting, the venues you manage won't need to open for a while!"
This was the benefit of interest binding; otherwise, how could Inspector Xu have revealed this to him?
If he or the society investigated privately, they would eventually be able to find out, but the time and energy spent wouldn't be so simple.
"Damn it!"
Watching Inspector Xu and his team leave and head toward another venue he managed, Wu Feng's face looked very bad. It was a classic case of sitting at home and having disaster fall from the sky.
He had been so low-key, yet someone still took the initiative to provoke him; then don't blame him for being impolite.
