Chapter 280: Shen Yan's Odds
"Captain, do you really plan to personally lead six hundred soldiers to compete with Shen Yan?" In the Jinling infantry army camp, a flattering look appeared on the face of a guard, looking at Lai Junji with a gloomy face, and asked with a chuckle. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Hmph, I was embarrassed in the barracks on the outskirts of Beijing that day, so I vowed to take revenge in person, and completely trampled Shen Yan under his feet, so that he would never be able to turn over." Hearing the compliments of the personal guard, a cold look appeared on Lai Junji's gloomy face, and a strong anger appeared in his eyes.
"Shen Yan's dirt bun dared to provoke the captain, the day after tomorrow, the captain will definitely be able to easily defeat Shen Yan, and he will be resentful of the day." Hearing Lai Junji's resentful words, the guard's face became even more complimentary.
"Is there any reply from Wu Zhenyue?" Lai Junji didn't seem to want to tell his personal guard about this embarrassing thing, a touch of coldness appeared in his eyes, and he changed the topic and asked.
"Back to the captain, Wu Zhenyue agreed to open the market, and the odds of the captain are one to five, and Shen Yan's odds are five to one, purely from the odds, Shen Yan is obviously not the opponent of the captain. Moreover, according to the feedback I got from Wu Zhenyue, there were no more than ten people who bought Shen Yan to win, and the rest were all to buy school captains to win. The guard knew the meaning behind Lai Junji's words, so he replied without thinking.
"Hmph, Shen Yan is just a dirt bun, even if he gets the emperor's respect and trust, he still can't change the identity of the dumpling." Hearing the guard's reply, the corners of Lai Junji's mouth couldn't help but appear with a confident smile.
Of course, although he lost to Shen Yan in personal martial arts, however, this actual combat drill is not a personal challenge, but an emphasis on army combat, and Lai Junji does not believe that Shen Yan of Tubaozi knows what art of war. When the time comes, if you want to defeat Shen Yan, it is not a matter of being able to catch it.
Thinking of this, Lai Junji's eyes couldn't help but show a proud smile.
"Lord Shen, Wu Zhenyue asks to see you." In the dead of night, Wu Zhenyue wore a big felt hat, pressed most of his face, and quietly came to the back door of Wangjiang Tower, where he saw Shen Yanzheng sitting alone in the backyard, gently shaking the wine glass in his hand, and looking up at the moon in the sky that was not very bright.
"The martial arts gang leader is here, raise a glass to invite Mingyue, and the three of them will be shadowed, come, come and have two drinks with me." Hearing Wu Zhenyue's voice, Shen Yan turned his head slightly and glanced at Wu Zhenyue, gently beckoned, a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and said slowly.
"I'm just a rough person, but I don't have such a high literary talent and elegance as Lord Shen." Although Wu Zhenyue said this in his mouth, he still walked to Shen Yan with a brisk step and sat down, poured himself a glass of wine, drank it all, and glanced at Shen Yan with a strange look in his eyes, and said softly.
"When I returned to Wangjianglou in the evening, I wondered whether the martial arts leader would come to Wangjianglou in the middle of the night, so I prepared some thin wine, and waited for a while, thinking that tonight I could only drink sullen wine against the bright moon in the sky, fortunately, the martial arts leader is also a person with a heart, and my waiting was not in vain." Seeing Wu Zhenyue's expression, Shen Yan did not reveal it, a hearty smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he said slowly.
"Thank you Lord Shen for your trust in Zaixia, without Lord Shen, Zai Xia may still be just a lonely soul walking in the dark, Lord Shen can be said to be a bright light in the next." Hearing Shen Yan's words, Wu Zhenyue's eyes showed a touch of gratitude, and he glanced at Shen Yan.
"This evening, Lai Junji sent someone to find Zaixia, hoping to open a handicap in the next place, betting on who will win and who will lose between Lord Shen and him in the actual combat drill the day after tomorrow, and Lai Junji will buy 1,000 taels and bet on himself to win. As of three o'clock in the unitary hour, there were almost 300 people involved in the gambling of the handicap, of which more than ninety percent of the people who gambled on Lai Junji to win, and less than five people bought Lord Shen to win. ”
"Oh, it seems that the vast majority of people in Jinling think that Lai Junji has won me." Hearing Wu Zhenyue say about opening the handicap gambling, a helpless smile appeared in Shen Yan's eyes, it seems that there will be this or that handicap anywhere.
"I was full of confidence in Lord Shen, so I bought three thousand taels of silver to bet on Lord Shen to win." Hearing Shen Yan's words, Wu Zhenyue seemed to want to confess his trust in Shen Yan, and hurriedly said.
"Thank you Martial Gang Master for your trust in me. I don't know what the odds are for me and Lai Junji? Shen Yan was very curious about what his odds were, but he couldn't show a look of eagerness to know, so he pretended to be clear and asked.
"Lai Junji's odds are one to five, and Lord Shen's odds are five to one." Hearing Shen Yan's inquiry, Wu Zhenyue didn't think deeply about it, and hurriedly said.
"Oh, my odds are so high, if I win, the martial arts leader will be the big winner." When Shen Yan heard Wu Zhenyue say that his odds were as high as one to five, he couldn't help but have a complicated look in his eyes, he didn't expect his winning chance to be so small.
"Then is the bookmaker of this handicap Lai Junji?" Shen Yan suddenly thought of another very critical question, if you don't know who the dealer is, isn't it a bit bad to participate in it.
"He Qingfeng." Hearing Shen Yan's inquiry, a complicated look appeared in Wu Zhenyue's eyes.
"Oh, it's him. Then in order to prevent the Martial Gang Master from losing the three thousand taels, I have to work harder, otherwise I won't be able to trust the Martial Gang Master. When Shen Yan heard that the dealer was He Qingfeng, a strange look appeared in his eyes, and a rough plan flashed in his mind.
"I am full of confidence in Lord Shen." Hearing Shen Yan's joking words, Wu Zhenyue drank another glass of wine, a complicated look appeared in his eyes, and then he said with a firm look in his eyes.
"Since the martial arts gang leader has so much confidence in me, I can't help but spend some money to buy myself to win, so let's do it, I'm short of money now, and I can't draw too many silver taels at once, so I can buy five thousand taels and bet on myself to win." I don't know if I can take credit or mortgage in kind? Shen Yan is full of confidence in his winning side, this handicap is clearly to give himself silver, if he doesn't want it, wouldn't it be too stupid, but he doesn't have so much silver on hand at all.
"Credit is not good, mortgage in kind, there is no such precedent before, and it is estimated that it will be difficult to work, unless the mortgaged items are much higher than the gambling funds." Hearing Shen Yan's words, a touch of surprise appeared in Wu Zhenyue's eyes, he thought that Shen Yan would be able to reap a lot of benefits as an official, but he didn't expect that he couldn't even take out five thousand taels.
"If Lord Shen believes too much, I will help Lord Shen pay the five thousand taels of silver first."
"What's so embarrassing about that." When Shen Yan heard Wu Zhenyue's words, he showed an embarrassed look on his face, and glanced at Wu Zhenyue with a hint of joy in his eyes.
"Martial Gang Leader, rest assured, I will definitely take out 20% of the silver I won back afterwards as the Martial Gang Leader's sponsorship and trust in me."
"Lord Shen said this, it was too outward. Besides, the income promised to Lord Shen Mountain Gang has not been given yet. Hearing Shen Yan's generous words, a flash of gratitude appeared in Wu Zhenyue's eyes.
"I like the quick words of the martial arts gang master, I will scatter those trustworthy people tomorrow to buy me to win, so that He Qingfeng can take this opportunity to swallow a good sum of money."
