Chapter 45: The Lightning Rod
Seeing Su Xiji coming over with a disgraced face, Lu Yan consciously lowered his head.
Su Xiji said angrily: "You still think I'm ashamed!"
Lu Yan comforted Su Xiji with a smile and said, "It's okay, it's okay, there's nothing to be ashamed of." ”
"No shame, why don't you pretend you don't know me?
Do you think these people have eye problems and I'm dressed like a bartender?
I'm a hugo boss custom suit. ”
Lu Yan took a sip of red wine and said, "It has nothing to do with what you wear, what matters is your skin color."
The country is full of discrimination, whites discriminate against blacks, blacks discriminate against yellows, and yellows can only keep their heads down. ”
When Su Xiji heard this, his heart was a little balanced, but after all, the business was not done, and Su Xiji's heart was empty.
After a while, Lu Yan said: "Mr. Su, we can't come in vain, let's bet and play." ”
"You're crazy, these chips are the company's public money. Su Xiji.
"Who said to use these, I mean let's go and exchange our personal belongings for some chips, it's still early anyway. ”
Su Xiji shook his head and said, "You go play, I'm not in the mood." ”
When Lu Yan heard this, he went alone.
After a while, Su Xiji asked Lu Yan: "Do you know who the middle-aged man next to Amber is?
Lu Yan smiled and said, "What do you want? That gentleman is the manager of this horse farm.
The Schmidt family has a family tradition of raising horses, and Amber is here today to stand on the platform for her family's peerless horse. ”
"What a peerless good horse, aren't they all brutes?"
"You're wrong, that beast of the Amber family is more expensive than you and me combined.
So in this first game, I'm going to put my chips on Raiden. ”
"Raiden? do you mean Amber's horse, and you have such a cool name?"
Lu Yan smiled and said: "Thunderbolt is more or less a superstar in horse racing, of course it has to be a cool name." ”
When Su Xiji heard the words superstar, he seemed to remember something.
Lu Yan stood up to watch the first game, and Su Xiji thoughtfully took out his iPad.
"Since Raiden is a star horse, can it be found in the system?"
Su Xiji didn't say a word, and entered the thunderbolt.
Unexpectedly, the information about this horse was included in the system.
It seems that no matter what star it is, as long as it is a little famous, it will appear in this star-making system.
Su Xiji finished reading the details of the thunder and lightning and confirmed what Lu Yan said.
Raiden is indeed a good horse, but the evaluation in the system is only A-.
There is also a horse called a lightning rod, which is given a rating of S by the system.
"Lightning rod? Isn't that the name given to the lightning?"
"I've seen this system, and the system must be really good when it says it's good!"
Su Xiji turned off the iPad and came to Lu Xiang's side, who had just handed over his chips to the dealer.
At this time, Su Xiji took out the chips he had exchanged for public funds and bet on the lightning rod.
Hearing Su Xiji's words, Lu Yan almost didn't squirt out the wine.
"Mr. Su, what are you doing? This is ......?"
Lu Yan was so angry that he couldn't even speak.
Who knows, Su Xiji waved his hand, made a gesture that didn't need to be said again, and said to Lu Yan: "Believe me, this is the only chance we can turn over." ”
Lu Yan was still trying his best to persuade him, after all, Su Xiji donated the turnover of the last two quarters with a wave of his hand.
At this time, everyone in the box heard that someone had bet 250,000 US dollars on the lightning rod, and they all set their eyes on Su Xiji.
Su Xiji and Lu Yan instantly became the focus of the entire box, but they were not the focus of praise.
Everyone looked at Su Xiji as if they were mentally retarded, and everyone felt that his 250,000 had been lost.
Amber and Maximo, the owner of the racecourse, also walked towards Su Xiji with wine glasses.
"Who are you, sir?" Amber asked with a smile.
"Su Xiji, dear young lady. Su Xiji also replied calmly that Lu Yan had translated the dialogue for him.
"Su Xiangsheng, do you know what kind of horse the lightning rod is?"
Su Xiji shook his head and said, "I don't know." ”
"Then I don't understand, why do you still put the treasure on it?"
"It's just an eye. Su Xiji opened his eyes and said nonsense.
But Amber said mercilessly: "Since this is the case, this eye will make you break the bank." ”
At this time, the owner of the racecourse, Maximo, said: "Mr. Su, you may not know that the horse you value is called a lightning rod, which is a lame horse. ”
Hearing this, the corners of Su Xiji's mouth twitched a little.
But he still endured it and didn't lose his temper, anyway, the money was already pressed, and there was no room for regret.
Maximo went on to explain: "The horse was bred by a stubborn cowboy in Texas who was convinced that the horse could race.
I was harassed by his phone calls for a month, and I couldn't help it, so I put the horse in the race. ”
At this time, Amber said proudly: "Our family's Thunderbolt, in two years, sixteen games, none of them lost, do you think Raiden will lose under that lame horse?"
Su Xiji still hasn't recovered from the loss of $250,000, and he has mixed feelings in his heart.
Although I have regretted it like my grandson, I can't show it.
"Miss Amber, isn't gambling just about fighting for this 1 percent probability?
Amber smiled disdainfully and said, "This time, the probability that the lightning rod can win is probably not even one percent." ”
After saying that, Amber also took out 250,000 chips and pressed them on Raiden.
Amber's behavior is not gambling, because in the case of a steady win of thunder, the person who bets on thunder and lightning will not get much of a prize.
The reason why she did this was to make her own heart and soul baby more majestic, and by the way, she mocked Su Xiji's stupidity.
Lu Yan still couldn't understand the motive of Su Xiji's behavior for a long time, and he didn't say a word, just let Su Xiji fall into endless contemplation.
Ambo and Maximo sneered softly at Su Xiji for a while, and then returned to their original positions.
This race is actually an exhibition race arranged by the racecourse for Raiden.
The real protagonist is only Raiden, so there is no point in gambling in such a game.
Except for recreational players like Lu Nan who have placed bets, most people just come to watch the thunder and lightning.
The only people who really put big chips are Amber and Su Xiji.
But everyone knows that Su Xiji's chips are already in Amber's pocket.
At first, when Amber mistook Su Xiji for a bartender, everyone just felt that Su Xiji was very ashamed.
But now, everyone thinks that Su Xiji is completely mentally retarded, including Lu Yan.
