The 10-month season is a carnival for horse fans, starting in September and ending in June and July of the following year (which may be postponed due to weather conditions).

After the start of the gong in Sha Tin, the race in Happy Valley will start at 13:30 p.m. and run 10 races, with half-hour intervals between each race. In just half a day, the amount of regular bets through the Jockey Club may exceed one billion Hong Kong dollars, and if an unpopular horse runs out, the number may be even more staggering.

As early as an hour earlier, nearly 50,000 fans had flocked to the historic racecourse to get a close-up feel for the Queen. In 1975, it was here that the Queen watched the final of the season and placed bets on it herself, and of course, her Royal Highness the Queen, who had a large number of accountants, actuaries, and even equestrian experts who provided free inside information, won the win, and happily awarded three lords and a baron. On the racetrack, any miracle can happen, and even the most cherished title of the British royal family has become a worthless cabbage.

There are 'sports fans' who see horse racing as a purely sporting activity, there are semi-obsessives who want to make a little money, there are gamblers who don't hesitate to risk their whole wealth, there are high-class gentlemen who compete in secret, and there are young boys who are ready to fight desperately to please their lovers.

Cuong is a waiter at a café and a veteran fan who often haunts the race, and he can count every horse he has run on the Heung Kong Race, and every jockey is as familiar as his body hair, even until a celebrity jockey has a lover in the high-end residential area of Central, and what brand of sandwich will appear in his trash can.

Old horse fans jokingly call him 'strong data', and his strength is indeed only in collecting information, and when it comes to buying horses, his eyes are full of tears. I have bought dozens of horses in total, but none of them have won the lottery, and their luck is not as good as that of a blind cat. So since three years ago, he has stopped buying horses, but is often pulled by other fans to help see the style, provide information and opinions, and the most frustrating thing is that many fans who accept his opinions actually win the prize.

"Haha, our data is strong again. Ah Qiang, you're not right, I asked you to come and see the horse two days ago, but you refused. Why did you run over again today? Do you look down on Brother Leopard, or have you been bribed by an old pervert, you won't just help him watch the horse today, right?"

Ah Qiang bought his own horses and forced them to work, but he was a fortune boy who helped people transfer money, so he was still very welcome. Seeing him enter, the person who was rejected yesterday was suddenly a little unhappy. The old pervert is a good friend of Ah Qiang, and in this person's mind, it must be that the old pervert wants to 'monopolize' Ah Qiang today, and suddenly looked at an old horse fan behind Ah Qiang with some annoyance.

"Hey, hey. You're wrong this time. ”

The dozens of seats in this area are all tickets bought by people in the same district, and they are all familiar old faces that cannot be familiar. Ah Qiang's reputation as a fortune boy was too great, and the old horse fan felt that he could not be the target of public criticism, so he hurriedly explained: "Ah Qiang is not here to help me this time. It's to help himself. ”

"Help himself?"

The person who spoke in front of him had mixed with the club in his early years, and after he found a daughter-in-law in middle age, he washed his hands and quit the rivers and lakes, but his voice was still amazingly loud and he spoke fiercely. He looked at Ah Qiang with vertical eyes, and suddenly laughed: "Fuck your mother, you kid won't have itchy hands." I think you better save money, instead of giving this money to the Jockey Club, it is better to invite us to a big meal, if you like your eyes, Brother Leopard, I may accept you as a little brother, in the future, you will find Gao Ligui, and you don't need to borrow one out of ten to mention my name, how about it?"

"Still don't want it, right?"

Although they are all regular customers of the tea restaurant, Ah Qiang is still a little afraid of this 'leopard brother', and lowered his head in fear: "I bought it for Xiao Rong this time, and I will definitely win." I, I, I"

"What am I, what am I?

Brother Leopard's eyes widened: "Who doesn't know that you are a first-class military advisor, and you will be a last-class person to buy a horse yourself." Wait, you kid mean Xiao Rong, Xiao Rong in the tea restaurant?"

"Hmm"

Ah Qiang's face was a little red, and he snorted: "Xiaorong and I are going to get married, we have to go out to rent a house, and we need money when we get married, I must win this time!"

"You bashing the streets, win an ass!"

Brother Leopard grabbed Ah Qiang's collar: "Haven't you already bought it? Don't mess around, haven't you heard of the love scene and the casino is frustrated? Lose to you, Nenzai, when you are a rich man like Li Chaoren? People buy horses for fun, it doesn't matter if you win or lose, you will die if you lose! Listen to Brother Leopard, you must be calm!"

said fiercely, Brother Leopard still cares about this little strong brother, when he knows that this young man has a bad quality in his heart, he is more sentimental than a girl, otherwise why would he lose money?

"Hey, Brother Leopard, you're late, Ah Qiang has already bought it, and he has bought a lot"

"Huh, how much did you buy!" Everyone was stunned, but since they had already bought it, everyone could only bless this little brother.

"One hand of ten bets, Ah Qiang bought two thousand hands"

"20,000 bets, is it a split investment or a buy periphery? You kid is looking for a loan shark!" Brother Leopard's face changed, if it was okay to invest in a sub-investment, if he bought a periphery, it would basically be inseparable from usury. The Jockey Club is limited to ordinary horse fans, a bet to buy up to 1,000 hands, that is, 10,000 bets, a buy 2,000 hands, if not split betting, then it must be on the periphery. Is this kid looking for death? Where did a street boy who made a tea restaurant get 200,000 yuan, he must have found a loan shark.

Brother Leopard said it hardly, but in fact, he couldn't afford to provoke loan sharks at all, and people wouldn't give him face, so his face changed at that time.

"No, I just used my and Xiao Rong's savings, and I have 150,000 yuan. I found a newly established underground peripheral company, because this company has just opened, not only has inside information to recommend, but also if it meets their conditions, it can also have part of the credit, so I bought 2,000 lots. ”

"On credit, the newly opened peripheral company? You bastard, see if I won't kill you this time!"

Everyone shook their heads again and again, as Cuong said. This company is not reliable at all, and it also recommends inside information? I am afraid that it will directly cheat money, and the periphery of this kind of company will dare to buy it? I really won't die if I don't die.

"Don't talk about it, think about it, you will lose money, how can you help Ah Qiang, it's not easy for the little couple to have today, but you can't see them ruined all these years, Ah Qiang didn't help everyone make less money, let's always talk about conscience." ”

The old pervert shook his head again and again and sighed, hating that iron could not become steel. Everyone also complained and discussed how much money to help Cuong tide over the difficulties, only Cuong lowered his head and was silent, like a little girl who had made a mistake.

"Help must be helped, but death must also be understood. Ah Qiang, tell Brother Leopard, which horse did you buy? 'Hurricane' or 'King of Kings'? Position or Single T? If these two horses are popular, maybe you still have hope. Why don't you speak, fuck me, you can't buy that new 'belt stallion', do you?

"Brother Leopard. I really bought Black Wind to win"

"Ahh

Dozens of neighbors were silent, and Brother Leopard's eyes were so bright that they were almost bleeding. But no one expected that the first to break out was actually the old pervert! The old man scolded Ah Qiang with snot and tears, and gave him two blows on the head from time to time: "You bastard, toss like this." No wonder you refused to tell you along the way, you bought the stallion? You are looking for death! That horse is not gelding, and it is said that he has not undergone much training, he is a rich man from China. It was brought by Li Chao's son-in-law, and the Jockey Club passed the competition with his eyes closed. Who are you? You are a strong data, you haven't analyzed that this is a game made by the rich people. It's impossible to run out of the grades, you play? Can you afford to play? These big rich people can play to death to a poor person like us every minute, and I'm mad at you!"

"The odds are very high, the single win is 1 to 100, the position is also 1 to 20, even the big mouth Ma Jing has introduced this horse, did you kid have this idea after reading the Ma Jing? and the temptation of high odds?"

Brother Leopard raised the 'Xiangjiang Horse News' in his hand and squinted at Ah Qiang.

"yes"

"It's you who are paralyzed!" Brother Leopard finally couldn't help but erupt, and kicked Ah Qiang's ass fiercely: "You are still strong in information, Ma Jing is obviously a rich man, you can't see it when you give people whiskers and horses? High odds? If it is a big favorite to win, will it give you such high odds, you can see it and you can't touch it, it is a death to buy a horse for this odds!

Ah Qiang's eyes were a little moist, a little moved, and a little aggrieved, did everyone not believe themselves like this? Listen to me, Black Wind."

"Don't sell your black wind, everyone's money is not blowing in the wind, are you crazy alone, we still have to go crazy with you? Okay, let's not talk about it, the horse race is in the gate, my 'king of kings' can be sponsored by a company called Shuanghui in the mainland, first-class British thoroughbreds, top trainers and chefs, last season ran the sixth overall, there is no reason why I can't run today. Boy, learn hard, if you want to buy a horse, you have to buy this kind of big favorite, although the odds are a little low, but it is easy to make money!"

Looking at the horses slowly entering the gate, the eyes of Brother Leopard and the neighbors gradually became warm, and their spirits were all condensed on these horses, but no one came to criticize Ah Qiang anymore.

"What about the black wind, why is there no black wind?"

Cuong was trying to find it, but he only saw nine horses entering the gate, and did not see the black wind that he had pinned all his hopes on.

"You're out of luck."

Brother Leopard, they also saw that there was a problem, it was originally ten horses entering the gate, but now only nine are in place, according to the horse position and pre-race information, the black wind that Ah Qiang put his life on did not arrive.

Leakage of horses happens almost every season, or the jockey has a temporary problem, or there is a problem with the race, or there is a temporary diarrhea, but it is not necessarily a bad thing, in this case, the club will return the bet of the fan to buy the horse, and will get some compensation. The big upset horse bought by Ah Qiang was not favored by everyone, if Black Wind really missed the race. It's a big thing in misfortune.

"Haha, it looks like God is helping you, Ah Qiang. I'll just say, a horse that hasn't been castrated is going to have a problem, and it's better not to show up. ”

Brother Leopard hugged Ah Qiang's neck and said with a smile: "Don't worry, Brother Leopard is covering you, if the peripheral company dares not to refund your money, Brother Leopard will take Brother Qi to overturn him!"

"The Black Wind will come, I'm sure it's coming. It's the champion horse of today!"

"You're a stubborn boy, what's that?"

The arena became more lively, and the fans let out a neat cry, and one by one they couldn't help but stand up, stretching their necks and looking at the entrance A: "It's a dark horse, it can't be the absent black wind, right? What did I see, there was a female knight on horseback, and she was still a beauty!"

Fifteen or sixteen minutes before the official start of the race, the arena opened the A channel for this dark horse to make an exception. A black racehorse galloped into the arena with a red cloud floating on the horse's back, but it was a beautiful woman dressed in a red power suit and stepping on high red leather boots. The cameras in the arena are always pampered by beautiful women. Her image soon appeared on the big screen, and her white pink neck and a few locks of hair fluttering in the wind immediately absorbed the gazes of countless people with different surnames.

Black Wind, really Black Wind! It's just that no one thought that it was such a beautiful woman who harnessed Black Wind. Many people are secretly regretting that they knew that the jockey of Black Wind was so charming, even if they knew that they couldn't run out. It's time to place a few bets. The thoughts of NC fans are always incomprehensible to normal people, and it is estimated that Liu Wu can't think of making a stunning debut of himself, so he has thousands of fans

"The first student, Mr. Li, Mr. Huo, Mr. He, are you going to the private room or?"

The head of the VIP room, who claims to be the most charismatic female manager in the Xiangjiang horse industry, has become a little stammering. Just a few minutes before the catkins rode into the arena in a dazzling manner, countless big names came to this members-only VIP lounge at the same time. Oh my God, these people are all in Asia, they are all stomping down and shaking the world, although they all have Jockey Club membership, but they are all given by the Jockey Club to beggars for nothing, a considerable number of these big people don't know how to bet on horses at all, they have never been to the VIP room, what's wrong with today, it's actually a group visit?

The beautiful manager who is over thirty years old but still maintains a girlish appearance and Yunying is not married, referred to as 'hate to marry', subconsciously straightened her collar, and her heart jumped like a deer, Li Chaoren They are old men are good, but there are still many middle-aged elites and rich people, can I say that I am attractive

She was clearly overthinking.

"Hehe, Manager Xiangxiang doesn't need to greet us, we just accompany the groom to watch Marseille, just in the hall. ”

The eyes of a group of people turned to Zhou Yi, and even a few old men squeezed their eyes at Manager Xiangxiang kindly, the number one beauty in the Xiangjiang horse world is really not covered, except for Li Chaoren, a good man who is super dedicated, there are several rich old men who are moved.

However, this is a continuation of Zhou Yi's wedding, everyone is still a guest, and the crown is like a cloud, but no one has done anything out of line.

"Oh, okay, okay"

His eyes swept over Zhou Yi lightly, and then looked at the field along his line of sight, and finally fixed on the red slender figure, Guo Xiangxiang suddenly remembered the legend that was regarded as a joke by many people, but he didn't expect this joke to really become a reality?

This is the rich man from Huaxia, the Li family's Chenglong fast son-in-law? This woman is so happy, Guo Xiangxiang is jealous of another woman for the first time

The VIP room began to be busy, milk tea and coffee were delivered to the table, and dozens of horse consultants were smiling and introducing the major favorites of the day, various betting methods and corresponding odds for these rare big names. This is a great opportunity, these big people are playing casually, and just mentioning achievements can make them wake up from their dreams with a smile.

The result was a big surprise, many rich people made heavy bets, and then looked at the young Mr. Zhou with a smile, they all bought Heifeng, almost the same poison win.

"Black Wind wins, two million bets; in addition to the position of Black Wind, Flash, King of Kings 500,000 notes; There is also a single T, Black Wind, Flash, King of Kings, three million notes; Triple Color, Black Wind first, Flash two, King of Kings third, also two million bets"

Zhou Yi picked up the coffee and took a sip gently, and added: "Will the horse stand it." ”

"Mr. Zhou, please wait a moment" Guan He nervously calculated the odds, and finally breathed a sigh of relief: "No problem." Mr. Zhou, are you sure you want to publicize it?" "The Jockey Club is confidential for horse fans, for the sake of safety and face, whether rich or not, most of the fans will not choose to publicize, otherwise the types and amounts of bets they bet on will appear on the six-sided electronic screen in the arena." However, there are exceptions, such as Gao Jin, the gambling god of the year, who announced the information that he was ready to buy the six consecutive lottery from the beginning, which pushed the atmosphere of the game to a climax.

Guan He is just very strange, from Sha Tin to Happy Valley, this young Mr. Zhou seems to have changed as a person, how could he suddenly become so high-profile?
