Tokyo Racecourse in Fuchu-ku, Tokyo, an island country

"The owner...... Isn't such a thing as horse racing too extravagant......" Bai Suzhen grabbed a large handful of horse tickets in her hand and muttered quietly. Although the ability of a beautiful police inspector to make money cannot be compared with Jiang Yelin, when it comes to spending money, I am afraid the gap is even greater.

This is in the VIP box of the Tokyo Racecourse in Fuchu District, Tokyo, according to Jiang Yelin's point of view, since Ye Gongzi from the Maple Leaf Country is a second-generation gentleman, there is no reason to only make money and not spend money, the legal system of the island country is still quite good, and the form of gambling officially allowed by the state, in addition to the pachinko houses all over the streets, there is only a racecourse.

The Tokyo Racecourse, which can accommodate 200,000 yuan, was built in 1933, and another racecourse is located in Kyoto, and the Central Association has a total of 10 racecourses in the country, with Tokyo and Kyoto two racecourses holding the most large-scale events every year.

"Ye San, I didn't expect you to be also temperamental, hahaha, today is the Emperor's Cup Autumn Grand Prix horse race, I won't tell you, I got some news from my friend, the first race, the No. 7 horse has the potential to be in the top three......"

The owner of the box, Kogoro, the shopkeeper of Cocoonyama Ryusendo, smiled and offered his courtesy to Eye-lin, the long box of the Cocoonyama family at the Tokyo Racecourse for almost 30 years, and it is also the main place for Kogoro to greet guests and friends over the years, and the rest is a golf course.

"Kogoro-kun, what about horse racing, I don't know very much, but I think to make money, you have to bet on the underdog, today's horse and pre-race predictions, you said that the No. 7 horse is the favorite with the lowest odds, bet 100 yen if you win, and only pay 120 yen...... Isn't that a waste of time! ”

Jiang Yelin said haha, he really didn't study much about horse racing, and Bai Suzhen, the main force around him, was even more of a layman, but it was much easier to simply treat the 18 racing horses that were raced in each race as a lottery ticket to choose one of 18.

"Ye Gongzi, in fact, you don't know, horse racing, the probability of opening an upset in the first game is relatively small, because the organizers need to warm up the game to mobilize the feelings of the bettors, the first game wins, and the courage and enthusiasm to bet will increase, if the first game is lost, many people may feel that today's luck is not good, so they will not continue to bet hard......"

Kogoro has been immersed in antiques for only 20 years, but this guy has at least 30 years of experience in betting on horses, when he was kicked out of the house by the Cocoon Mountain family and was not allowed to call Cocoon Mountain, he was known as a horse gambling horse in the violent group, and even hosted the peripheral horse betting for the group, the so-called peripheral horse betting, which is equivalent to an underground private village, with amazing profits, of course, the risk is also great.

After returning to the Cocoon Mountain family to take over the mantle of the shopkeeper of the Cocoon Mountain Longquan Hall, Kogoro really whitewashed himself as an antique giant, and the underground private village naturally did not do it, but betting on horse racing has become his biggest pastime and hobby in addition to antiques.

"Hey, boss, you're too black-hearted, aren't you? The odds of this No. 18 horse are 1:20, isn't that equivalent to throwing money into the water?! Bai Suzhen saw that Jiang Yelin actually selected the unpopular No. 18 horse on the horse ticket, and couldn't help but shout anxiously.

"Number 18? Ye Gongzi, with all due respect, you also saw this horse when it appeared on the show just now, from the size and color of the coat to the mental state, it doesn't look like the master who can enter the top three, and you will put 500,000 yen on it? That's a bit of a hanging! ”

Kogoro said while his own hands were not slow, from the hand of Takagi Dairo standing behind him, took the betting slip, and dotted a circle on it It was very happy, unlike ordinary gamblers, Cocoon Mountain Kogoro is familiar with the horse scriptures, and he does have a study of horse racing, and when he bets, he paints that betting ticket, which is also one of his pleasures.

Tokyo Racecourse is free for children under 15 years old, and the rest of the adults have to buy tickets, but fortunately, it is only 200 yen, the price of half a bowl of noodles, and most ordinary people come to bet on horses, often the smallest unit of a bet of 100 yen, you must know that the smallest unit of yen banknotes is 1000, and 500 to 1 are coins, so betting 100 yen is just a matter of throwing a steel hammer into the automatic betting machine.

"I can't bear to let the child trap the wolf, Kogoro-kun, do you think this No. 12 will run first? That's 5 times the odds, if it's 1 million, it's a gain of 5 million...... "Jiang Yelin is not only like a layman in horse racing, but also an out-and-out layman.

"Well, No. 12 is a little more reliable than No. 18 horse, but 1 million seems to be a bit big in the first game, Ye Gongzi might as well invest 500,000 to see the luck and luck first?" Kogoro's heart moved slightly when he said this, he got a tip from his informant last night, horse No. 12 is the one that might cause an upset today, but he can't be sure if it's the top five or the top three......

"Does Kogoro-kun also think that No. 12 is reliable? That's the 12th! Jiang Yelin happily blacked out the circle of No. 12 on the betting ticket, and in the betting amount column, he chose the number of bets of 500,000 yen, in the racecourse, it is equivalent to more than 20,000 soft sister coins A bet, the face of the beautiful police inspector next to him was white and nervous.

"Which is the best third horse?" Jiang Yelin was a little embarrassed, and Bai Suzhen stabbed him here and lowered his voice and said, "I have invested 1 million, and I still choose!" If you have to choose, then choose the number 7, which is the favorite! ”

At this time, Kogoro showed his betting ticket, the main bet on a triple single, the order is No. 7, No. 2 and No. 12, the amount of bets is not small, just 1 million yen, but the odds of the triple single can be much higher than a single win, No. 2 is 3 times the odds, plus 1.2 times the number 7 favorite.

Kogoro's professional triple single betting actual odds are 1.2 * 3 * 5 = 18 times, bet 1 million yen, if the top three are really 7, 2 and 12 such an order, then Kogoro can get back 18 million yen, remove 1 million costs, net 17 million yen.

For every 100 yen of the island's Central Horse Racing revenue, the government takes a 25 yen cut, of which 10 yen is to be turned over to the national treasury, and the remaining 15 yen is owned by the Central Racecourse, which pays for the horse race prize money and the running expenses of the racecourse, and at the end of the year, if there is a surplus, half of it must be paid to the national treasury.

"Okay, since No. 7 is a big favorite, then choose No. 7 once, Susu, this time we are borrowing the light of the cocoon mountain shopkeeper, in order to express gratitude, another 1 million yen bet, and the cocoon mountain shopkeeper's bet is exactly the same!" With a stroke of his pen, Jiang Yelin checked the third horse on his horse ticket, and then checked the options on the third consecutive horse.

At this moment, Bai Suzhen and Kogoro were dumbfounded, "Nani? Ye Gongzi, didn't you choose these three horses to win, but actually wanted a triple single? The probability of this being able to run out is too low! Kogoro couldn't help but scream.

Jiang Yelin's own betting list, the order is 12-18-7, if it is a single choice to win, as long as it is not the odds of only 1.2 times the 7th wins, whether it is 12 or 18 wins, Jiang Yelin will make a lot of money, at this time he actually learned from Kogoro's appearance, plus a triple single, this time the odds from the highest 20 times, soared to 120 times.

120 times means that the 99% probability of his 1 million yen on this triple order has been lost, perhaps in order to buy an insurance, Jiang Yelin finally gritted his teeth and placed 10 million yen on the 7th single win!

Now the people in the entire VIP box are speechless, I have seen a loser's son, I have never seen a loser like Ye Gongzi, 10 million yen! If you win, you will get back 12 million! Kogoro was a little dumbfounded, and the four Takagi brothers standing behind him were even more gasping and grinning at each other, completely stunned.

"What's wrong?" Jiang Yelin asked Kogoro in surprise, he is now equal to a total of 13 million yen bets, of which 10 million bets on No. 7 to win, No. 18 and No. 12 to win 500,000 each, 1 million bets on 12-18-7 triple single, 1 million with Kogoro's No. 7-2 and No. 12.

"Ye Gongzi is really heroic! In this case, the contemptible person can't be too far behind, and if the 7th wins, I will add 1 million yen! Xiao Goro scratched his head, his face was a little swollen, Jiang Yelin bet 13 million yen in the first game, and the dignified cocoon mountain shopkeeper only invested 2 million yen, the gap is too big, or rather, the courage is really lost.

"Wait, Su Su, I'll make another bet for you to win on the 12th, which is also a 1 million bet, lest you complain about the boss and know to squander it for yourself!" Jiang Yelin smiled and filled out another betting slip, which allowed Bai Suzhen to take it and place a bet together, and here Xiao Wulang handed over the two betting slips in his hand to Takagi Dalang, and this thing followed Bai Suzhen upside down.

In fact, the odds of horse racing are constantly changing with the betting process, in other words, the favourites are related to the horse's historical record, presence, and rider level before the race, but it is still the bet amount that really determines the odds of each horse on the field.

As the favorite, the odds of the No. 7 horse have dropped from the odds of 1.35 at the beginning to the odds of 1.20, which means that the No. 7 horse is optimistic about the bet amount on this horse, and the odds of the unpopular No. 18 horse have risen from 18 times to 20 times at the beginning, becoming the most unpopular horse on the spot, which also shows that the bet on this horse has the least betting funds.

With the sound of a gunshot, 18 racing horses rumbled out of the starting line, and the atmosphere of the audience suddenly became tense
