Chapter 166 Selling panties also has to bet
The Club is one of the most prestigious clubhouses in Hong Kong. The Club's membership is highly respected and members are required to be recommended by a Selecting Member, with a total of 200 Selecting Members and a limited number of members recommended each year. In addition to owning a racing horse, members can also enjoy horseback riding in the comfort of the Beas River Country Clubhouse. These include political and business leaders such as former Hong Kong Chief Executive Tsang Yinquan, Cheung Kong Asset tycoon Lee Ka-shing, HKMA Chairman Joseph Yam, Sun Hung Kai Chairman Kwok Ping-sheung, CITIC Pacific Chairman Wing Chi-kin, and other prominent members of the Club, including Justice Li Kung-nang, President of the Legislative Council, university presidents and doctors. The Club currently has more than 24,000 members, of which 200 are selected members with the right to nominate candidates to join the Club.
According to the rules of the Jockey Club, Luo Jinjia is not qualified to be a member, although his family background is also quite rich, but for some senior VIP members of the Jockey Club, the Luo family is just a small shrimp, and he can't see it at all.
The reason why Luo Jinjia is a member is completely thanks to Huo Zhenrong's introduction, although Huo Zhenrong is not the core disciple of the Huo family, but after all, he retains the blood of the Huo family, so he gave Luo Jinjia a peripheral card.
Compared with the real gold card, there is a world of difference, for example, some places are not allowed by people with peripheral cards, this is the division of a circle.
A person with a peripheral card can also bring someone in, but only to one person.
Luo Jinjia drove Tang Yu to the Jockey Club, and after the two got out of the car, Luo Jinjia introduced some of the Club's rules to Tang Yu, such as where you can't go in and where you can enter.
Tang Yu is not from Hong Kong after all, Hong Kong's Gongzi circle is very xenophobic, especially the Gongzi from the mainland, always with some kind of hostility, or feel that after returning to the mainland, Hong Kong's economy is not as prosperous as under the previous British rule.
"Crazy, don't worry, I heard what you meant, I won't make trouble, I've always kept to myself." Tang Yu said with a smile.
Luo Jinjia smiled, keep to yourself? If your old man keeps to himself, I'm afraid that this world will be too peaceful long ago.
Now Luo Jinjia still doesn't know that Tang Yu has humiliated another worshipping Miao Zhan, otherwise he is afraid that he will be shocked.
"Let's go over there." Tang Yu saw a few sons riding horses not far away.
Luo Jinjia and Tang Yu went over.
"Golden Armor."
"Golden Armor."
Some sons immediately greeted Luo Jinjia, most of these people were at the same level as Luo Jinjia, and they all came in with peripheral cards.
Luo Jinjia introduced Tang Yu to everyone, naturally using a pseudonym. When everyone heard that it was Brother Gongzi from the mainland, they couldn't help but let out a strange smile.
"Xia Hua, I heard that there is also a Jockey Club in your capital, which is very luxuriously decorated, and many people gamble money in it, is there such a thing?" A young man with a somewhat pale face asked with a smile.
"The Jockey Club in the capital? I haven't been to this one. Tang Yu said.
"Haven't been?"
Brother Yigan glanced at each other, it seems that this Mr. Xia Hua is not a prominent person, he has never even been to the Jockey Club in the capital, I heard that the people who go to the Jockey Club in the capital are rich people, and the gambling money is carried with sacks.
"Idle and bored, let's bet a few handfuls." A son-in-law brother proposed, looking at Tang Yu with a very enthusiastic look, although I don't know what Luo Jinjia will take a mainland son-in-law brother, but it is estimated that this guy is also a rich man, just let him spit out some money.
"Jin Jia, do you want to come?"
"Me? You can play whatever you want. Luo Jinjia said indifferently, "But I have to say it in front, Xia Hua is very rich, and he is not interested in one or two million, at least five million." ”
The crowd gasped.
And then his eyes lit up, this is the nouveau riche, the mainland nouveau riche.
I'm here to send money, so there's no reason not to knock a lump sum.
Although five million is a lot of money, it is also a drop in the bucket for the son of a rich family.
It is to bully the nouveau riche who don't know how to read the horse.
I guess this nouveau riche hasn't even ridden a horse.
"I'll arrange it." The pale boy said enthusiastically.
A few minutes later, six horses appeared on the racetrack, which was a small racecourse, not the kind of horse racing club where tens of thousands of people bet on horses, but the rules were pretty much the same.
"This is the information of these horses, Xia Hua, take a look." A son-in-law felt that Tang Yu should not be "bullied" so much, so he handed the information to Tang Yu.
I'll show you, you can't understand it either.
"I don't need to look at it, I can just look at it with my eyes." Tang Yu said with a smile.
"Jin Jia, what do you think has potential?" Tang Yu asked Luo Jinjia.
Luo Jinjia looked at the horses, all of them looked so strong and vigorous, they all seemed to come out in one appearance.
"The reddish-brown one, number three." Luo Jinjia pointed to horse No. 3 and said.
"Number 3? Jin Jia, you haven't read the information, this horse is in a very bad mental state, you look at it, listless, you can see that Lu Dao is not full at a glance. ”
"No. 5, No. 5, I look good."
Five's horse was majestic and had its head held high.
"Mr. Xia Hua, which horse are you betting on?"
"Number three." Tang Yu said with a smile.
"What's the bet?"
Nouveau riche just don't have vision.
As long as people who know a little bit about horses know that this horse is in a very bad spirit, and when it comes out, it doesn't bark, and it looks like a bird that wants to die.
But that's fine, someone else sends money up, I'm sorry not to.
The more Tang Yu bets, the more they win.
"Just 10 million. A little bit of a word. Tang Yu said that he has money now, and 10 million is a drop in the bucket, and saying it seems as simple as drinking boiling water.
Everyone gasped, and sure enough, they were nouveau riche, and their eyes were shining.
"Ten million, follow."
"I'll add five million more."
A few sons said enthusiastically.
"Really buy number three?" Luo Jinjia looked at the information of the horses given by the Jockey Club and knew that No. 3 Ludao was sick, and he just had diarrhea yesterday and had a bad stomach, so his spirit was very bad.
"Fifteen million will you follow?" A son-in-law brother was afraid that Tang Yu would regret buying another horse, so he urged.
"Follow, I'll add you 10 million." Tang Yu's typical nouveau riche said, "I have nothing but money." ”
Brother Gongzi was excited, 20 million, this Xia Hua is very rich.
They didn't despise Tang Yu now, but they felt that it was too kind.
Tang Yu is now a cash cow, as long as he shakes it, money will fall.
Horse No. 3 will definitely not be able to run the first place, he bought this horse with 20 million, isn't that a gift of money?
Even if you sell underwear, you have to bet on it.
