214 Gamble big
After signing a gambling contract with Huwei, Bi Lan went directly to the palace.
As soon as he heard Bi Lan's intention, Liu Hong smiled directly, "Bi Lan, it's no problem for me to lend you the sweat and blood horse." But the Huns grew up on horseback almost from an early age. Do you think you can win them over by riding a sweaty horse? ”
"Ah, Your Majesty! The slave didn't think much about it at the time, but listened to Liu Shangshu's proposal and felt reasonable, so she agreed. But according to His Majesty's words, is that Liu Shangshu playing the slave maid? ”
"Liu Biao, it's impossible to trick you. However, he took sweat and blood horses too seriously. If two riders are equal, the one who rides a sweaty horse will be a little cheaper. But a little riding skill like yours, not to mention riding a sweaty horse, even riding a flying horse, may not necessarily win others. ”
"Your Majesty, what can I do! It doesn't matter if the slave and maid lose, but this will lose the face of our big man, and lose your face, Your Majesty! ”
"So, you're still up to me!" Looking at Bi Lan's scoundrel look, Liu Hong smiled.
"The slave knows Your Majesty, you have a lot of ideas. With a little trick, the slave can win those Huns. ”
"This is also a bet between you and the Huns, otherwise, I won't care." Then, Liu Hong said: "Horses, you go to the imperial horse supervisor to pick them yourself." But if you want to make sure you can win, you have to go find Xu Xiang, this kid must have a way. ”
"Yes, yes, thank you, Your Majesty, for your advice." Saying that, Bi Lan trotted all the way to pick up a horse to find Xu Xiang.
"Nima's, should I also make a gamble this time and make a good profit?" As he spoke, Liu Hong remembered the scene of Jincheng about to collapse when the Persian prince duel with Goguryeo Jincheng. "Forget it, although the people don't like eunuchs. But they must have disliked the Huns even more. If you use this to set up a gambling game, you will be guaranteed to win more people when you buy Bi Lan. So this gamble can't make any money at all. ”
Liu Hong pondered here whether he was going to set up another gamble. At this time, Bi Lan was also pondering indiscriminately, "Xu Xiang, didn't you help Your Majesty open a security company, what's the use of looking for him in this gambling game?" ”
However, Bi Lan also knew that since Liu Hong said that he wanted him to find Xu Xiang, there must be a reason to find Xu Xiang. Although he couldn't figure out what it was for, it didn't stop him from looking for someone.
As soon as Bi Lan found Xu Xiang and said, Xu Xiang knew that Bi Lan wanted to drug the Huns. However, this matter is very important, and he has to confirm that it is Liu Hong's order. Otherwise, if Bi Lan pretended to pass on the holy decree, he would also be planted in it.
However, Liu Hong also thought of this problem, asked Jia Xu to run over, and said hello again. At this time, Xu Xiang put his heart in his stomach. However, after Xu Xiang confirmed this matter, his mind became lively. He thought that last time Liu Hong held a gambling game, he won a lot of money. Therefore, he also wanted to take advantage of this incident to make a gamble.
Xu Xiang, this guy, is now completely in the eyes of money. After he sent Bi Lan back, he began to prepare for the gambling game. I didn't think about it at all, if this gamble could really make money, why didn't Liu Hong do it.
But it's too late to talk about it now. Now Xu Xiang has already spread people to publicize.
Now there are newspapers and storytellers, and they get word out or something, and that's pretty fast. It didn't take long for the entire capital to spread the news that Bi Lan and the Huns bet on horse racing.
"Brother, do you know, that big eunuch Bi Lan is going to bet on horse racing with the Huns."
"Of course I know, I also bought a silver coin Bi Lan to win."
"Ah brother, that Bi Lan is a eunuch."
"What's wrong with the eunuch, as long as he can fight for our big man, the eunuch will also support him."
"Yes, my brother is right, I'll also go buy Bi Lanyi silver coins!"
Liu Hong has just been destroyed, the three foreign tribes of Xianbei, Goguryeo and Karasuma. Now the national pride of the Han Dynasty is very high. And after two years of recuperation, although the people in the capital are not too rich, they are basically able to eat and wear without worrying. There are even many people who have some pocket money left over in addition to eating and drinking. So now, Xu Xiang's gamble can be regarded as a complete fire. But unfortunately, almost all of the people who came came bought Bi Lan to win.
"I said, this time it's a big loss." As soon as Xu Xiang saw the record of the gambling bet, his head was big. "Tamad, why didn't I think that if I could make money, how could Your Majesty let it go!"
But it's too late to say anything now, who let him be blinded by lard. In fact, he can not use laxatives now, so he can definitely win money. But he didn't dare to do that. Because if Liu Hong knew that he was not obedient in order to win money, Liu Hong would definitely not be able to spare him. So Xu Xiang is uncomfortable here now, obviously there is a way to make money, but he can only lose money right away. And it was he who took the initiative to help and let him lose money himself.
Xu Xiang, this guy, used to be a gentleman, but now, he is the best among the gentlemen, and even the leader of the capital. For a person like him, it's nothing to lose money, but he can't afford to lose this face.
"Nima's, how do you solve this problem? Otherwise, I would have lost face. Xu Xiang pondered, and suddenly thought, "The Han people won when they bought Bi Lan, because they are also Han people, cheering for their compatriots, and they don't care about winning or losing." However, those foreigners will not be the same as the Han people, they will definitely be able to distinguish the situation. ”
Although Xu Xiang is a gentleman, in another time and space, he is also a person who has been the third prince. So as soon as he saw the essence of the matter, he saw the essence of the matter clearly. In order to be able to turn the book, he directly set up a point at the door of the post house to receive bets from foreigners.
Sure enough, judging from this point betting, these foreigners really won by buying the Huns. But now I buy them, and they're basically foreign minions. If he wants to keep Ben with this, it is basically impossible.
"Made, what should I do? With only the bets of the little soldiers, I still can't keep the book. ”
Xu Xiang also knew that if he wanted to win a lot of money, he could only let those leaders bet. But now it seems that those leaders have no intention of betting. He wants to win, it's a luxury.
"These foreign leaders should not dare to bet for fear of offending Your Majesty. If you want them to bet, you have to dispel their concerns or give them an excuse. Thinking of this, Xu Xiang made up his mind, "Nima's, don't you want an interface, and the master will give you the whole excuse!" ”
Thinking of this, Xu Xiang went to Bi Lan and asked Bi Lan to help him make a game. Bi Lan also pointed to the need for Xu Xiang's help, and Xu Xiang's request was a wordless agreement.
Early the next morning, Bi Lan was ready to act. This guy can also do things, in order to make the movement bigger, he directly took the gong and drum team and went out with a bang. Not only that, but he also pulled a banner from the boss, which read, "In the past, Huo Hu rode the wolf Juxu, and now Bi Gong and the horse step on the Huns." ”
The tradition of the Chinese people being lively was there in the Han Dynasty. So Bi Lan made such a fuss, and soon followed a large group of people watching the excitement.
It's still early, and all the foreigners are in the inn. Therefore, as soon as this bustling procession of gongs and drums came to the betting place next to the post house, it immediately alarmed the people inside. Bi Lan is making such a fuss, and the other people are better. But Huwei couldn't sit still at all.
Huwei himself is extremely hostile to the Han people, and now the banner that Bi Lan has played has poked at his sore spot again. Of course, he couldn't sit idly by and just come out with someone. And seeing Huwei and them coming out, Bi Lan made even more trouble.
Huwei came over, ripped off the banner in one hand, and asked Bi Lan, "What do you mean by this?!" ”
"What's the point, we heard that there is a betting spot here, and we have opened a betting game with your horse race. Our family was happy to hear about this and came over to bet. ”
"I ask you what this banner you mean?!"
"If you are a barbarian, you just have no knowledge." Bi Lan pretended to shake his head, and then said: "What I said above is that back then, our hussar general Huo Qu was sick and once sealed the wolf Juxu. And now, our family and I are also about to win the horse race against you Huns. ”
Hearing this, Hu Wei was about to be blown up. He said loudly, "You haven't won yet!" ”
"Go, go, don't delay our betting! Our family is confident, so as to show everyone that it is right to believe in our family. As he spoke, he took out a newly issued silver ticket from the bank and said, "Let's vote a thousand gold coins and win." ”
After handing over the silver ticket, Bi Lan began to fire the map cannon to attack, "You barbarians, they are all small families, and you shouldn't have any family background. Now that there is such a great opportunity, why don't you hurry up and pay for our family to win, and by the way, make a little fortune, what are you waiting for?! ”
At this moment, it can make those foreign leaders who follow and watch the excitement angry. Especially the prince of Kangju, a few days ago, he was kind, Bi Lan didn't even accept it at all, and now he is insulting them, which is really unbearable. So Prince Kangju also took out the silver ticket he had just exchanged from the bank, went to the betting point, and bought a thousand gold coins to win.
Someone took the lead, and the leaders of those foreign tribes thought that the Xiongnu would win. Therefore, they paid money one after another to buy the Huns to win.
Seeing this result, Xu Xiang, who was hiding to the side, could be regarded as relieved. At this moment, it is not certain whether you can win or not, but you should be able to do it if you keep your book.
At this time, Bi Lan looked at Huwei again. "Why, you Huns don't buy some, if you don't have enough money, say a few nice words, and we will lend it to you."
"Of course we Huns gambled, not only to gamble, but also to gamble." As he spoke, Huwei took out a large handful of silver tickets in his arms, and said, "I will buy 10,000 gold coins, and our Huns will win!" (To be continued.) )q
