After meeting the emperor, Bai Su was busy for the next few days. Not only did he have to contact colleagues in Chang'an City, but he also had to deal with various forces. After the start of work, all kinds of important information reports and request letters were continuously sent to Bai Su, which needed to be reviewed and approved by Bai Su.

When Bai Su was busy, Li Rui was not idle either. He took a group of playmates to ride horses through Chang'an every day, causing trouble everywhere, ostentatiously, and it is said that he even spent ten thousand gold, and set up a set up with the famous casino in Chang'an. Gambled.

Princess Yingchuan is a rich man, and he brought his own dowry of 300 million guan. Everyone in Chang'an City knew it, and even the envoys of various ministries around Daqing attached great importance to it.

Of course, if you pay attention to it, you don’t have to believe it. After all, 300 million copper coins are not a small amount-calculated based on the military pay of the Daqing Dynasty. If you don’t count the greed and exploitation among them, the 300 million can be used sparingly, which is enough for a 50 army. Years of military pay!

Given the current situation in Daqing, the state treasury might not be able to come up with this sum of cash. How could the emperor of Daqing let her be a princess to amass such a huge fortune?

But if you say you don't believe it at all, that's impossible. After all, Princess Yingchuan has been quite scary in spending money since she returned from the Eastern Expedition last year, which has caused many royal families and children from aristocratic families to follow her.

For example, in the gamble with Qianjintai this time, Princess Yingchuan threw [-] gold at first, and then Qianjintai also followed Wanjin. Princess Yingchuan was furious and dumped another [-] gold.

Of course, Qianjintai did not bury his reputation, and then came over with a bet of ten thousand gold.

4 taels of gold, that is, a game of about 40 guan, is at the feet of the emperor, the well-informed Chang'an people, and it is the first time I heard of it, and the first time I saw it!

In just two or three days, word of the gambling game spread to Chang'an, and even some gamblers in the surrounding counties got the news.

Princess Yingchuan and Chang'an Qianjintai bet against each other, betting on horse racing, betting on Jujube, and betting on football!

Everyone knows horse racing. Juju is to play ball on horseback. It is the favorite sport of the children of aristocratic families. As for football... not many people know about it, but according to the news from Qianjintai, it is to let people play football with their feet , seems to be a strange new gameplay that was only available last year.

Just as the whole of Chang'an was shaken by this gamble, even more unbelievable news came out again!

——Bai Wuhui, a giant merchant in Donglai, in the name of Kyushu Bank, followed up 30 guan in this gambling game! ! !

What was even more shocking was that Xiao Hongfei, governor of Liaoxi County, also threw in 20 guns.

Xiao Hongfei made a lot of war dividends with Chuning last year, and he didn't spend as much money on infrastructure as Chuning did. In addition, he and Chuning made a lot of money in iron mines this year, so he spent 20 guan Playing, you can afford to bite your teeth.

As a result, Princess Yingchuan and Qianjintai couldn't sit still anymore, and each bet another [-] yuan to come in.

So far, the total amount of gambling has reached 110 million, which can be called a gamble that is hard to find in the world!

However, within a few days, an even more unbelievable turn of events happened—Yuan Xin, the fifth son of the Xiangguo Mansion, threw 30 guan and joined the game!

Immediately afterwards, General Wei Chuyan, who was stationed in Zhangye, even sent someone to send a letter—he had no money, but he was confident that his soldiers were good at equestrian skills, so he owed it first, and waited for the people he sent to win, and then sent him a letter. Cash out your bet.

This kind of gambling is all about money, straightforwardness, and heroism. Naturally, no one is willing to let someone like Wei Chuyan participate. Fortunately, there is a place in this world called Kyushu Bank. I don’t know what agreement they reached with Wei Chuyan. Wan Guan bets on him.

After Wei Chuyan, Liu Yunji, who was far away in Bingzhou, sent someone to send 3 taels of gold.

In this way, the total amount of gambling was as high as 190 million. Just when everyone was amazed, many aristocratic children of the royal family in Chang'an City who were about to make a move also paid out one after another. After all, such a gamble is rare in the world. Maybe there will never be another chance.

What's more, the Liaodong Commercial Daily also joined in, exaggerating and touting each gambler's strength, making many children of aristocratic families realize that this gamble is also an opportunity to show their martial arts and strength. If you can become famous all over the world immediately, whether you go out as a general or enter the court as an official, the famous people will always have more advantages than others.

On the tenth day of September, the registration for this shocking gamble officially ended. The total amount of gambling was as high as 320 million, and the rules of the game were officially announced.

All gamblers can send a team for every 30 guan.For example, Kyushu Bank, Princess Yingchuan, Qianjintai, Yuan Xin, the fifth son of the Xiangguo Mansion, and General Liu Yunji can all send three teams: Marseille, Polo, and Football; those with less than [-], such as Xiao Hongfei, governor of Liaoxi County, For example, the great general Wei Chuyan can choose the advantageous events from these three competition events, and the same is true for other aristocratic families.

Of course, in order to prevent the gamblers from putting water on their own roads, it is clearly stipulated that all gamblers can only sign up for one team for the same competition.After this team goes through the three major events of preliminaries, eliminations, and finals, the first, second, and third rankings will be selected.

Each project will have a final ranking. According to the final ranking, the No.1 bonus for each project is 60 guan coins, No. 2 is 30 guan coins, and No. 3 is 300 guan coins. The total bonus is 20 million guan. The remaining [-] guan will be used for the construction of the competition venue, the unified arrangement of the competition personnel and entertainment.

The high first prize has aroused great attention from the people of Chang'an, and all the gamblers are even more ambitious—the second prize is enough, and the first prize is doubled. In this world, there is nothing better than this Did you make money?

The emperor, who was deep in the palace, was also very concerned about this unparalleled gamble. Eunuch An opened the latest business newspaper, and after reading the rules and schedule of the game, he saw that the emperor was stunned and fell down on the ground without dignity.

"Old Man An, come and help me, my legs are weak."

The dignified emperor, the treasury's in-and-out accounts are at least tens of millions of dollars every year. Logically speaking, he is also a person who has seen big scenes-but he has never seen it. Except for various expenses every year, he himself The national treasury can still save a huge cash of 300 million guan!

Yes!Cash! 300 million guan!All of them were replaced with gold ingots, nearly [-] catties, and they were piled up in the warehouse assigned by Mr. Yuan Wu!It is said that the pile is like a hill, as long as he gives an order to seize this warehouse and fill it into the national treasury, the problem of the frontier army's salary next year will be solved immediately!

Thinking of this, the emperor couldn't help swallowing his saliva, and with the support of Eunuch An, he moved tremblingly to sit on the Hu bed, and exclaimed: "Unexpectedly, my royal family of the Li family also produced a woman named Tao Zhu who can make money." .”

Eunuch An saw the excited expression of the emperor, and smiled and said: "Master Yingchuan said when she came back last year that she could make 300 million yuan for His Majesty, and this old slave thought she was just joking, but how could she know that it is really true now?" One made money."

After Princess Yingchuan returned to the imperial capital last year, she said it in front of the emperor no less than a dozen times, and it was precisely because of this that the emperor allowed her to swagger in Chang'an City with a dowry of 300 million.

Of course, at that time, no one believed that Princess Yingchuan really had the ability to earn 300 million yuan, they just thought she was fooling around.

"Although she has let me see the money, she hasn't earned it for me yet!" Dijun read the business newspaper twice, and said, "It's just that the bonus is too generous. According to me, For the first prize of Lao Shizi, two or three million yuan is enough...Huh? No...This...Old man An, come and help me do the calculations, is this a mistake? What did they do? Did you spend all your money again?!"

The emperor dragged Eunuch An to calculate the accounts repeatedly, and the two of them became more and more angry. On the way, a guard came to report that the eminent monk had entered the palace and was waiting for His Majesty to listen to the scriptures...

In a rage, the emperor sent the blind guard away, and asked Eunuch An to bring Li Rui into the palace.

"Li Qingci, is this the 300 million you swore to me?"

If you don't know that the money is fine, let him know, see, and then be divided up by others, Dijun feels that his dragon heart seems to be cut into small pieces by life.

Li Rui picked up the Liaodong Business Daily thrown in front of him by the emperor, glanced at it, and quickly comforted him: "Uncle Huang only saw that the money was rewarded, but there is a university question in it about who the reward is for."

"Oh?" Dijun raised his eyebrows: "Don't you plan to give all these awards to yourself?"

"Of course it's impossible." Li Rui said: "However, Qingci can first reveal the most certain thing to Uncle Huang."

"which one?"

"Football game." Li Rui explained: "This new game was introduced from Donglai last year. Although it is deeply loved by people, there are relatively few players in Chang'an City. Most of the people who apply for this event just send some people to participate Make up."

"Huh? Then Bai Wuhui was born in Donglai, so he has a huge advantage!" Dijun nodded, then frowned and said, "But even if we give her all the three football prizes, it's only 100 million..."

Dijun took it for granted that he had a share of the money Bai Su earned, but this share was too little to satisfy his growing appetite.

"Uncle Huang, the total is only 300 million coins, and we will get 100 million directly..." Li Rui said helplessly, "I can't just make money this year, right? Who will come to play next year?"

The emperor thought about it, but he still felt it was a pity: "If you had let me know that the bonus is so generous, I can also pay and send someone..."

"Uncle Huang, you have meddled in this..." Li Rui couldn't laugh or cry: "In this world, who dares to beat you? You have taken away all the prize money, and next year there will still be no one to play with..."

After finally persuading the emperor, Li Rui came to see Bai Su in the heaven and earth after leaving the palace, and no matter what Bai Su was busy with, he told the story of the emperor's good fortune like pouring beans from a bamboo tube.

Bai Suyou could tell her, and after listening, he said calmly: "As long as the emperor doesn't send troops to grab the money by force, let him do the rest."

"That's all I can think of." Li Rui took a long breath and said, "Wu Hui, you said that the fifth son of Yuan Xiangguo's mansion... Yuan Xin's intrusion, what does it mean?"

"As far as the current situation is concerned, he still doesn't see clearly the reason for his visit." Bai Su pondered, "What we announced to the public is that the five sons of the Yuan Mansion are responsible for securing the gold storage warehouse, you are responsible for sealing and locking the box, and I am in charge of sending people to guard."

Because of the huge amount, Li Rui, Yuan Xin, and Bai Su were responsible for keeping all the gold after it was collected for safety reasons.After the three of them discussed, in order to avoid some troubles, their actual arrangement was exactly the opposite of the arrangement announced to the outside world.

In fact, after the three people counted and checked the gold together, Li Rui was responsible for locking it and setting a private storage location, Yuan Xin was responsible for affixing notes and keeping the keys, and Bai Su was responsible for sending people to guard it.

Li Rui directly set the storage location in the basement of the heaven and earth——the basement of the heaven and earth. A layer of stones was buried under it, and a layer of cement was filled with a thickness of three feet. don't go.More importantly, in order to protect Bai Su, Chuning directly asked Chen Longjian to bring the Special Warfare Division over.With the special operations department and the solid wall of the heaven and earth to lean on, if it weren't for the strong attack of thousands of people, basically no one would be able to take so much gold from the sky and the earth.

"Yuan Xin not only paid 30 yuan himself, but he was willing to take the blame on himself even though he didn't know where the gold was hidden. If we really ran away with the gold, then all the participants this time must first of all Trouble him with Yuan Xin..." Li Ruidao: "So, what is his purpose?"

"Perhaps, he is very sure that even if he does not use abnormal means, he can still benefit from it?" Bai Su said, "For example, taking all the awards of Qianma and Qiju. After all, these two projects are the most important for you Chang'an nobles. Good game."

"It's also possible." Li Rui pondered: "But it's not necessarily true. After all, Wei Chuyan, Liu Yunji, and Xiao Shijun are participating in the competition this time. They have a lot of soldiers under their command, and they can always pick out some powerful ones. Hands come."

Bai Su nodded, agreeing with Li Rui's statement.Bai Su knew very well that it was precisely because of the existence of such a powerful project that these aristocratic children would actively participate in it; and the reason why Xiao Hongfei, Wei Chuyan, and Liu Yunji joined in was not only because Xiao Hongfei played the leading role in the frontier army. In addition, it is also because they have a natural advantage in horse racing.

It is precisely because each has its own advantages and strengths that it can accommodate the existence of the football project, but it is not guaranteed that someone has worked hard in this project and directly defeated the Donglai team, allowing Bai Su to withdraw from the football project. out.

While Bai Su and Li Rui were analyzing Yuan Xin, Yuan Xin was also talking about this shocking gamble, talking about Bai Su and Li Rui.
