Chapter 41 Anti-Japanese Mutual Aid Association (900 votes plus change)
Zhou Ding didn't know what Balshak was thinking, and even if he knew, he wouldn't care too much!
At this moment, he had returned to the warship, looking at the rising prestige value, and Mei's heart was bubbling.
The news of this victory has not yet been reported, and the new prestige is given by the people of Lushun.
More than ninety percent of the people in Lushun who entered the gladiatorial arena today have reached a reputation of respect with Zhou Ding, and two or three percent of them have reached reverence.
There are even a few people whose prestige has reached worship.
The matter of handicap gambling, purely Zhou Ding was handy, he just took out a silver ticket of two million taels and handed it to Andus, and said by the way: "See if there is an opening in the gladiatorial arena, buy me to win, and win some pocket money!" ”
From Zhou Ding's confident attitude, Andos understands; Zhou Ding is confident, and this battle will be won.
Andos came to the handicap and found that the handicap here did not adjust the odds of both sides according to the amount of bets, but fixed one to one, which is equal to how much to lose.
It's a rare opportunity!
Andos was not in a hurry to buy, but was carefully calculating how much to buy.
I bought too much, worried that the other party would not be able to afford it, and the dog jumped over the wall in a hurry. If you buy too little, how can you be worthy of this God-given opportunity?
There are a lot of people who bet on the handicap, except for a few Chinese people who symbolically spent a few taels of silver to buy Zhou Ding, and the rest of the people all bought Moros. These foreigners seem to have picked up a big bargain, and they are very generous one by one.
When the market was about to close, Andos calculated according to the scenario he had just bet on; The total amount of bets placed today is at least more than one million taels. Since the people in the gladiatorial arena have no fear, there are at least more than one million reserve funds.
In this way, the gladiatorial arena has at least two million taels of payout!
However, Zhou Ding's gambling capital is 2 million, if he only bets 2 million, there is nothing to do with me? In that case, wouldn't this opportunity be lost in vain? With such a big piece of fat, you can't just look at it, right?
Perhaps, the reserve fund of the gladiatorial arena should be more, otherwise, they would not dare to let go of the collection, even if they don't have so much money, and the property of the gladiatorial arena can pay off the debt.
If we win this gladiatorial arena, we will become the boss here, and at that time, we won't have to continue playing, right?
The opportunity cannot be lost, and the loss will not come again, so Andus directly placed a huge bet of three million.
Although the handicap was surprised by the huge amount of money, it did not refuse to accept it.
The person in charge understands that since the handicap is opened, there is no reason to refuse to accept gambling money, otherwise, it will damage the reputation of the gladiatorial arena.
It is said that such a large amount of money should be asked to the boss in time, but the game in the field is about to start, and it needs to be closed immediately, and the time is not in a hurry!
The most important thing is: the boss gives clear instructions; The odds remain the same, how much you get!
Andos put the gambling ticket into his briefcase, and left the handicap with his eyebrows fluttering, thinking beautifully; After Zhou Ding wins, what will be the faces of the people in the gladiatorial arena? In order to keep the gladiatorial arena, Tsarist Russia will also pay this compensation if it smashes the pot and sells iron, right?
If the Colosseum can't afford to lose, so much the better! Zhou Ding doesn't have to continue to play, and I don't have to worry about it.
Will Zhou Ding lose?
Andos is not worried about this, he has known Zhou Ding for more than two years, and Andos knows that Zhou Ding has always been a person who plans and then acts!
In order to ensure the weight of this team, in addition to the American agent and a few reporters, the agents of other countries also helped hire a few officials in China. If Tsarist Russia dares to repay its debts, Andos does not mind publicizing this matter to the whole world.
The next thing you can imagine.
When Balshak came to the handicap and met Andos, he said; When the money was not in hand and the compensation was suspended, Andos gave an ultimatum tepidly:
"Before dark today, whether you are begging grandpa or suing grandma, in short, you have to raise money to pay for gambling, otherwise, you will use this gladiatorial arena to pay off your debts."
Bauersak really wanted to kill the head of the handicap, but he also knew that it would not help!
This gambling money cannot be relied upon, otherwise, the whole world will know: the merchants of Tsarist Russia are scoundrels.
Although he was responsible for the preparation of this gladiatorial arena, the shares in his hands were only thirty percent, and the rest of the shares were all in the hands of the military, and his boss was only nominal and did not have the ownership of the gladiatorial arena.
This matter must be properly resolved, otherwise, he will not only lose face, but also risk losing his life.
Balshak had no choice, so he borrowed 800,000 taels of silver from the underground bank of Tsarist Russia with the shares of the gladiatorial arena and all the properties of Tsarist Russia as collateral, and finally, before dark, collected enough 3 million taels to send away the smiling Andus.
However, just sending Andus away is not the end, the funds on the books of the gladiatorial arena are less than 10,000 taels, how to operate in the future?
There was no good way to think about it, after all, the amount of losses today was too large, and in desperation, he could only turn his mind to tomorrow's gladiatorial match.
Tomorrow, Zhou Ding is likely to continue to bet, even if he doesn't bet, he must guide him to play, as long as Zhou Ding is defeated, the loss of today will come back!
……
Zhou Ding didn't know what happened in the gladiatorial arena, at this moment, he was chatting with a man in his thirties, who was Brother Fang who led people to cheer for Zhou Ding in the gladiatorial arena.
Not long after Zhou Ding came back, this Brother Fang came to the boat and said that he wanted to see Mr. Zhou.
The reason why Zhou Ding invited him to get on the boat and spoke with him so enthusiastically was because Brother Fang and Zhou Ding's prestige had already reached worship!
People who worship Zhou Ding are Zhou Ding's help, and such people must be courteous and strive for income.
Brother Fang's full name is Fang Youde, a native of Fushun, he has read poetry and books since he was a child, and when he was a teenager, he helped a broken monk, the monk took pity on him and was kind at heart, and saw that Fang Youde was weak and sick, and passed him a set of Shaolin long boxing.
Fang Youde's talent is acceptable, and he is willing to endure hardships in practice, but the reason why his achievements are not high is because his family background is very ordinary.
The family can provide him with education, and he has already tightened his belt.
Fang Youde didn't have the money to buy the medicinal materials used in practice, and he couldn't even provide for his body's needs in terms of food, and he lacked the guidance of a famous teacher.
However, Fang Youde's talent and fame are among the best in Fushun.
Four years ago, after the Japanese soldiers occupied Fushun, they wantonly killed the local Han people, and the only three dark warriors in Fushun City formed an anti-Japanese force, called the Anti-Japanese Mutual Aid Association.
Fang Youde's martial arts are not weak, and he is full of poetry and books, and the Anti-Japanese Mutual Aid Association lacks a master who can write and calculate, and several leaders sent him a signal to win over.
At that time, Fang Youde was just twenty-six years old, which was the age of surging enthusiasm, and he was very indignant at the actions of the Japanese, and he did not hesitate to join the Anti-Japanese Mutual Aid Association.
Soon after joining, because Fang Youde was brilliant and resourceful, he was respected as a military advisor by his master and sat in the fourth position of the Anti-Japanese Mutual Aid Association.
This year, the Russian soldiers occupied Lushun, and built a gladiatorial arena, and hung out the couplet of 'Boxing Dahua Nanquan, pushing and kicking Yanhuang North Leg'.
As Zhou Ding guessed, the warriors of the Anti-Japanese Mutual Aid Association could not bear the ridicule of the couplet, and went forward to challenge the gladiatorial arena of Tsarist Russia.
Just as Zhou Ding guessed, the gladiators in the gladiatorial arena did not pay attention to the rules at all, and many warriors folded in the gladiatorial arena one after another, and even the three leaders who reached the dark strength could not withstand the wheel battle of the Russian gladiators, and died tragically in the gladiatorial arena one after another.
In just a few days, most of the warriors of the Anti-Japanese Mutual Aid Association lost most of them, and when the storm was shaky, Fang Youde saw the news of 'Zhou Ding' from the newspaper.
Fang Youde secretly rejoiced that if it weren't for Zhou Ding's high-profile declaration of war, the backbone of the Anti-Japanese Mutual Aid Association would have been lost, and at that time, this force would inevitably fall apart......
