"Why is Mr. Xiao standing here alone?" Tian Daoming pretended to be concerned and said to Xiao Ping: "If you need to mention anything, our Jockey Club will never snub guests." ”

Xiao Ping didn't believe that Tian Daoming would take care of himself out of kindness, but the so-called "reach out and don't hit the smiling person", since the two sides haven't torn their faces yet, Xiao Ping doesn't want to behave too ungracefully, so he also nodded lightly and said: "Everything is fine, I am very satisfied." ”

"Then why is Mr. Xiao standing here alone?" Tian Daoming suddenly asked, and then suddenly realized: "I know the truth, you are doing this because you don't have any acquaintances here, right?" The dinner was attended by all the biggest names on Hong Kong Island, no wonder you didn't know them! ”

The irony of Tian Daoming's words is already very heavy, he just wants to provoke Xiao Ping, if Xiao Ping does something inappropriate, Tian Daoming's goal will be achieved.

However, Xiao Ping didn't take Tian Daoming's words to heart at all, and just smiled slightly: "Yes, I haven't been in Hong Kong for a long time, and I don't have many acquaintances here." ”

Seeing that Xiao Ping was not fooled, Tian Daoming had a plan in his heart and said: "In this case, let me introduce you to a few friends, they are all members of the Jockey Club and are very good people." ”

Tian Daoming couldn't help but pull Xiao Ping down next to a few men who were talking quietly together, and began to introduce each other to each other. Naturally, those who can join the Jockey Club Club are rich people, and the most disadvantaged one also runs several trading companies at home, and his family's assets are hundreds of millions. So when they listened to Tian Daoming's introduction, they knew that Xiao Ping had just set up a farm in a medium-sized city in the mainland to grow vegetables, and they all couldn't help but show contempt.

One of the young men looked at Xiao Ping with contempt. Then he smiled and said to Tian Daoming: "Mr. Tian, there is a problem with the management of the Jockey Club." How can anyone attend the annual dinner, which will seriously affect the consistent noble image of our club. ”

Look at that oily-haired, self-righteous guy. Xiao Ping couldn't help but snort coldly in his heart: "Hey, it's another pretending to be a forced goods." ”

Tian Daoming wanted such an effect, and immediately smiled a little helplessly: "Mr. Xiao is here to attend the banquet with another Miss Zhang, Miss Zhang is my specially invited guest, the daughter of Vice Governor Zhang of Jiangsu and Zhejiang Province, I will introduce you to you later." ”

Hearing that Tian Daoming invited the daughter of the vice governor, these people all looked solemn and said that they must know this Miss Zhang. These people are just pure businessmen, and the children of high-ranking officials like Zhang Yuxin are still very attractive to them. However, Tian Daoming's words let them know. Xiao Ping actually followed a woman into the banquet, which undoubtedly made everyone despise him even more.

However, there are also some of these businessmen who are more old-fashioned, and they feel that since Xiao Ping can be with the governor's daughter, their relationship must not be ordinary, and it is better not to offend this kind of person.

So an older member changed the topic without a trace, and said to Tian Daoming with a smile: "Mr. Tian, the day after tomorrow is the year-end competition, your white lightning must win, I have placed a heavy bet!" ”

Another person continued: "Mr. Tian's white lightning is the pride of our Hong Kong Island Jockey Club. Of course, I will definitely win this time, and I also spent 500,000 yuan to buy a white lightning to win! ”

Since they are members of the Jockey Club, of course, they all love horse racing and betting on horses. When it came to the race three days later, everyone was excited. They all said that Tian Daoming's white lightning has a huge advantage, and this year's champion is definitely him.

White lightning is the pride of Tian Daoming and has already won him many matches. If only so many people had praised their horses in the past. Tian Daoming will be very happy. But today, his goal was to humiliate Xiao Ping, so he didn't react much to everyone's praise. Instead, he smiled and said to Xiao Ping: "I'm sorry, Mr. Xiao." Everyone is a horse lover, and when it comes to this, I get carried away. I don't think you're interested in this, but it's no wonder it's very difficult to raise a good horse in the mainland! ”

Tian Daoming's words obviously meant that with Xiao Ping's conditions, he was not qualified to play horses at all. Those members were not fools, and they naturally saw that Tian Daoming was deliberately targeting Xiao Ping. Several people all looked at him in surprise, wondering how Lu Dao, a young man who grew vegetables in the mainland, offended Tian Daoming and would let Tian Dashao target him like this.

Xiao Ping ignored Tian Daoming's several provocations, and just wanted to observe him in a low-key manner in order to get more useful information. However, when everyone talked about Marseille three days later, Xiao Ping immediately realized that this was a good time to put pressure on Tian Daoming to make mistakes.

So as soon as Tian Daoming's voice fell, Xiao Ping smiled faintly and said: "It is indeed not very convenient to raise horses in the mainland, but I also have a horse, called the Black Devil, if I can come to run the race, I believe it will not be difficult to win a few championships." ”

Unexpectedly, Xiao Ping, who had always behaved very humble, suddenly became high-profile, and the members of the Jockey Club club were all taken aback - the two were too strong in-for-tat. Tian Daoming's beloved horse is called White Lightning, and Xiao Ping's horse is called Black Devil; White Lightning is a multi-time champion of the Jockey Club, and Xiao Ping said that it is not difficult for the Black Devil to win a few championships. He obviously said this on purpose, obviously calling out Hetian Daoming!

Only then did a few people feel that Xiao Ping might not be as unbearable as Tian Daoming said, and they couldn't help but re-observe him. Of course, Xiao Ping didn't take these people's curious eyes to heart, but deliberately looked at Tian Daoming and sighed: "My horse is a real fast horse, but unfortunately I am not qualified to participate in the competition, but it makes those horses who are only worthy of pulling carts out of the limelight." This is the so-called 'there is no tiger in the mountains, the monkey is called the king'! ”

As soon as Xiao Ping's words came out, Tian Daoming could no longer pretend to be deaf and dumb. The slap in the face has reached this level, and if he doesn't react, then he will have no prestige in the Jockey Club in the future. For Tien Daoming, who is interested in running for the next Jockey Club chairmanship, such a blow will undoubtedly be fatal.

So Tian Daoming immediately said: "Mr. Xiao also has horses?" As a member of the Jockey Club Council, I can get you a wild card to participate in the year-end Marseille in three days' time. ”

Speaking of this, Tian Daoming paused for a moment, and then added with a sneer: "But the people who participated in this race are all good horses who have won the championship this year, and my white lightning will also participate, but I don't know if Mr. Lu Daoxiao has the courage to participate." If you finish in the last place, it will be very embarrassing! ”

Tian Daoming has a sinister personality and rarely says such ruthless words. However, Xiao Ping's arrogant attitude really annoyed Tian Daoming, so his words also carried a bit of anger.

This is also what Xiao Ping wants to see, and immediately smiled lightly: "This is not to worry about Mr. Lao Tian, as long as my black devil can participate, it is the champion!" ”

Seeing that Xiao Ping was still so hard-mouthed, Tian Daoming was also secretly happy in his heart, feeling that this was the best opportunity to fight his rival. He laughed coldly and deliberately said loudly: "Okay, I'll have someone send the wild card to Mr. Xiao tomorrow." However, simple horse racing is a bit boring, is Mr. Siu interested in betting with me? ”

"Sample, buddy is trying to trouble you, and he actually sent it to the door himself, I'm so sorry to miss such a good opportunity!" Xiao Ping was secretly happy in his heart, but on the surface, he pretended to be contemplative, and after a few seconds, he nodded heavily and said, "Okay, bet on it!" ”

Seeing that Xiao Ping agreed to make a bet with himself, Tian Daoming was also overjoyed, and couldn't help but secretly think: "I don't know the thickness of the earth turtle, I have to play you to death this time!" ”

With Tian Daoming's gloomy character, of course, he did not reveal the ecstasy in his heart, but announced loudly as usual: "Everyone, this Mr. Xiao and I will make a bet at the annual horse race in three days. Between my white lightning bolt and Mr. Shaw's black devil, there will be a separate bet on the market, and bets will be openly accepted! ”

After Tian Daoming deliberately said loudly that he wanted to bet with Xiao Ping, the conversation between the two has attracted the attention of many guests. Now that Tian Daoming has officially announced, all the guests looked at Xiao Ping in surprise, and many of them were sympathetic, as if Xiao Ping had lost.

It's no wonder that everyone looks at Xiao Ping like this, everyone knows how fast the white lightning is, Xiao Ping, a little-known horse owner, actually wants to bet with him, and openly accepts bets, which is simply asking for his own death.

In fact, even Zhang Yuxin thinks so. At that time, Zhang Yuxin was talking to a potential big customer, and after hearing Tian Daoming's words, he didn't even have time to say hello to the other party, so he hurriedly trotted to Xiao Ping's side.

Seeing that everyone was looking this way, Zhang Yuxin hurriedly lowered her voice and whispered: "You are crazy, why do you want to bet with him?" Do you know the meaning of gambling? ”

Xiao Ping replied honestly: "I don't understand!" ”

After listening to Xiao Ping's words, Zhang Yuxin really wanted to screw him hard. However, she couldn't do such a thing in public, so she just glanced at Xiao Ping fiercely and said: "The meaning of betting is that you and he both accept betting, and whoever loses will be compensated to the other party in the same proportion." If you accept less bets than the other party, you will have to pay out of pocket to make up for the loss, in case there are more bettors, you will immediately go bankrupt? ”

After listening to Zhang Yuxin's explanation, Xiao Ping suddenly realized, and whispered to her: "So that's the case, no wonder these guys look at me weirdly, dare they treat me as an idiot." ”

Zhang Yuxin glanced at Xiao Ping and said, "Aren't you?" ”

"Hey, hey." Xiao Ping winked at Zhang Yuxin: "When the time comes, you will know who is an idiot." ”

When Xiao Ping and Zhang Yuxin talked, they spoke the local dialect of Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces. Although Tian Daoming next to him couldn't understand what they were saying, he also guessed that Zhang Yuxin must be persuading Xiao Ping not to gamble with him, so he decided to immediately add another fire to the already tense atmosphere.
