Chapter Twenty-Three: The Gamble of a Thousand Pounds

"Speaking of which, this is just your conjecture, or perhaps this story was all made up by you, because there is no evidence to prove it, and Monsieur Sebastian Bach has been dead for more than thirty years, and who can prove that he was influenced by this so-called prince in your mouth?"

As a qualified villain, Marco jumped out at the right time, but what he said this time was actually what all the Caucasian people present thought.

"It is not difficult to prove, in fact, that from the European point of view, Monsieur Carl Philippe is still alive, that he is a man of integrity, and that Mr. Bach must know that he has not been influenced by knowledge from the East!"

Karl Philippe Emmanuel Bach, Bach's most famous son, is still alive and will not die until four years later, in 1788!

"From the perspective of Asia, I will spend a lot of money to go to Qingguo to find traces of this set of books, I don't think it is difficult, in order to thank Miss Jenna for patiently listening to me tell this story, I will definitely send you a set as a souvenir at that time!"

Ye Kai put forward two opinions, although it takes time to verify, but it can also prove to a certain extent that he is not lying.

"What does this prove? Nothing can prove it, we won't be able to go back to Europe anytime soon, and you just need to fool the present, and then even if we understand that we have been deceived by anger, what can we do to you? "Marco jumped out again!

"Why don't we make a bet?" Ye Kai looked at Marko's baldness, and suddenly a ghost idea popped up!

"Good! What bet do you want to make? Although Marco felt that Ye Kai's eyes were a little weird, he didn't take it to heart!

"Didn't you say I lied? Then let's make a bet that if what I'm saying is true, you'll lose me a thousand pounds, and if I lose, then I'll pay everyone around me a thousand pounds each! ”

The current pound is directly linked to gold, and one pound is almost more than seven grams of gold!

A London textile worker, who works more than ten hours a day and never rests for three hundred and sixty-five days a year, can earn less than ten pounds!

Even fifty or sixty years later, in Jane Eyre, a full-time female teacher in a rich family's family can get less than twenty pounds a year, and the current 1,000 pounds is at least equivalent to five or six million yuan before Ye Kai's crossing, and it is likely to be more!

That's a lot of money! The whiteskins present, both French and English, were excited when they heard a thousand pounds, because they felt that it was very likely that they would lose to this yellow man named Zinedin!

"What? Don't dare to bet? You know, if you lose, you'll lose £1,000, but I'm going to lose close to £20,000!

Ladies and gentlemen, don't worry that if I lose you won't get the money, and then I won't be able to get the money, you will go to my father with your weapons, and he will definitely pay! ”

Ye Kai squeezed Marco loudly, and did not forget to make a guarantee with the people around him!

A drop of sweat dripped down Marco's head, and his full net worth was only one or two thousand pounds, but he couldn't help but agree, and these guys around him were attracted by the fact that they didn't have to bear any consequences, and they might be a thousand pounds for nothing, and everyone looked at him with expectant eyes!

If he dares to say that he doesn't gamble, these scumbags will probably dare to send him to the water to feed the crocodiles, and the white people who can come to this place are basically scum who don't mix well in Europe, and they can definitely do this kind of thing!

"Good! I'll bet with you! Marco squeezed a few words out between his teeth!

。。。。

A huge steak is fried, this is also the latest popular food, it was specially brought by Jenna Chick, don't think that Europeans have eaten steak since ancient times, there is no such thing!

Eating steak was actually invented by the Americans, and before the colonization of North America, the acquisition of extremely large numbers of bison, and the great improvement of breeding technology, eating meat was also enjoyed by the wealthy in Europe.

Don't look at the Europeans of the 21st century who don't eat offal and animal hooves, and think that Europeans at this time don't eat them.

They are much more ruthless than us Chinese, a pig will eat nothing except pig feces and pig hair!

At least we Chinese didn't eat offal much before the large-scale use of chili peppers, because it was too fishy!

Frying steak is also a technical job, it must be fried just right, too old or too tender is not suitable, originally Jenna chick brought a chef with her, but Ye Kai found that this chef's understanding of fried steak is far inferior to him, when it comes to making food, Europeans at this time are simply not good!

With two quick flips, a juicy steak is ready, Ye Kai opens a bottle of wine, gets some onion and lemon juice, sprinkles with other essential seasonings, and the fresh red wine juice is baked again!

Two pieces of steak that completely locked the juice and the old woman's suitability, paired with a red wine sauce full of wine aroma, Anna and Jenna, the two 'Nana', ate with a good taste, and were completely conquered by Ye Kai's cooking skills.

I flicked the barbecue charcoal twice, and Anna's favorite roasted oysters were wafting with the fragrance!

'Suck it! Suck! There was a sound of saliva around, and Ye Kai raised his head in surprise to see that there were people swallowing saliva all around, even Peter was among them!

Zhang Gui stood behind Ye Kai, swallowing his saliva, he was not interested in the bread eaten by the white people or something, but this large piece of beef made him feel that he couldn't take his eyes off it at all, seeing that there were fewer and fewer steaks on the iron plate in front of him, Zhang Gui's heart became empty!

What a fucking rice bucket! Ye Kai was also sighing, fourteen white skins ate twenty-three or four catties of steak in one meal, as well as hundreds of oysters, and a lot of other things.

Shaking off his aching arm, Ye Kai let out a long sigh, and a completely tired and paralyzed Caucasian man on the ground was also looking at him flatteringly, in order to steal the teacher and learn the arts, this guy was also very tired!

In fact, this man called Takal cannot be considered white by the standards of today's Europeans!

His father was a major in the British Army in India, and his mother was a Kshatriya near Bengal, and his father had a family in England and abandoned Takar and his mother when he returned home.

Fortunately, although he was an illegitimate child who did not even like his father, he was both Kshatriya and of English descent, so he easily managed to get a job at the Indian Viceroy in Calcutta.

Later, however, during the East India Company's war with the Mysoreans, he was thrown out of the army because of his disadvantage, and now he is a cook, a job that Kshatriya should never touch, but Takar doesn't care, because he thinks he's an Englishman and not an Indian!

Two steaks, two large pieces of bread, two bottles of craft gin, Zhang Gui and Takar were excited at once!

Not only the excitement of the delicious food, but also the excitement of being able to share the food at such a banquet, because they knew that the French officers and British nobles just now had eaten this kind of food!

Zhang Gui took a big bite of the steak, squinted his eyes and let out a satisfied exclamation, "If only there was a bowl of rice!" ”

Ye Kai looked at this seemingly honest Guangnan warrior and smiled, "Next time, I'll let you eat authentic Chinese food!" ”

"Sir! You must not offend that girl, that girl called Jenna, his father is like that! ”

Takar whispered to Ye Kai in curry-flavored English, and by the way, he also gave a thumbs up on his right hand!

"Thank you for the reminder, my brother!" Ye Kai replied with a smile, and Takal was so bad that my brother's face was almost rotten because of this sentence!

But what exactly is the origin of this girl?
