Chapter 171: Losing the Lady and Breaking the Soldiers
Although they are both thoroughbreds, there is a clear difference between a champion horse and a slightly inferior horse. It's not that the muscles and bones are strong, or the body is tall, but the spirit and spirit are obviously a little different.
Ryan was in a relaxed state against the horses in the first two races. The horses of the first two races did not dare to challenge Ryan's horses. However, in the third championship, the horses were obviously a little different, not only were they much calmer before the race, as if they had gone through strong winds and waves, but also their spirits were different. In the silence, the vigorous fighting spirit of these horses can be clearly felt. They are all the pride of the sky, and no one obeys anyone.
And Ryan's state is also noticeably focused and nervous. This is something that has never happened before.
The distance of the third race was 1,200 meters. That's a bit long for a British thoroughbred, which is dominated by explosiveness. But it is very suitable for horses with Arabian or Akhal-Teke bloodlines. Although horses are pure bloodlines, the breeding of British thoroughbred horses is a process of gaining endurance through crossbreeding with Arabian horses on the basis of maintaining explosive power.
Almost every thoroughbred that wins a championship has Arabian horse pedigree. The bigwigs who control the racecourse plan for the long term, and seek more than just winning or losing this race. Because even if all their premeditated plans fail, they won't lose money. What they care more about is to let the champion horse in their hands take advantage of this competition to beat the crowd. Get a good show of face in public.
You know, scarcity is expensive, a champion horse is worth a lot, but a horse that beats many champions is worth even more! Because there's only one horse in the world. If he wins this race, the value of this champion horse will skyrocket by at least ten times! Moreover, there are rich people who are willing to take over! Let's say, a horse was originally worth a million dollars. Then, the value of winning the game will be 10 million dollars!
Anyone is willing to do something that nets nine million dollars! What's more, you can use this to crush the rich people of the same level!
The pre-race formalities are extremely complicated, and since the establishment of the "American Jockeys Club", Americans have begun to improve the procedures that can be flawed in the horse racing process. In this day and age, although cheating in horse racing will still occur. However, it is no longer possible to be blatant, and the effect of these means is no longer so obvious. Relative fairness can be guaranteed.
After the complicated procedure, the rest of his life and Ryan. Like the other jockeys, he was at the starting line. The starting fence was opened at the same time after the cue, and the twelve horses participating in the race started at the same time. Except for Ryan, the other eleven horses can be regarded as the most expensive eleven horses on the planet in this era!
If you follow the way Yu Sheng and Ryan used to work together, this game must be lost. However, the physical fitness for the rest of his life, and the ability to learn sports, are not comparable to those jockeys who weigh less than 100 pounds. He can be regarded as a martial arts master. The control of body movements has reached the level of detail.
Although he has not been trained as a jockey, after a few races, he knows the movements of jockeys and how to work with horses for the rest of his life. Moreover. Ryan was tamed by his own hands for the rest of his life, and they spent several days together in the mountains, and they were very familiar with each other. After mastering the essentials of jockey movements for the rest of his life, Ryan's burden was much less!
In an international level speed race. The key to victory is to rely on horses for seven points and people for three points. At the beginning of the start. Twelve horses go hand in hand. There is not much difference between them. After that, it depends on the skill of the jockey to control the horse, and the horse's ability to maintain or even increase its speed.
Ryan has an extremely high IQ and is also extremely emotional. So, no one has been able to tame it before. Unlike the other eleven well-trained, calm and composed horses. This kind of temper and personality is a double-edged sword, while the temper is easy to be short-tempered, it will also bring unimaginable explosive power to the horse in a short period of time! It's the same as when a person is angry or other emotions erupt, he will have more strength.
Ryan was born since he was born, and except for the rest of his life, he is neither convinced by people nor by horses. At this time, when he saw that the other eleven horses dared to run as fast as him, his heart was furious! However, there is a rest of your life to watch, and you can't attack. I was so unhappy! And the pressure of emotions has pressed out all its potential!
With twelve horses marching head to head, not much difference, Ryan actually sped up!
Marseille in this era is also broadcast, but not a TV series, but a broadcast! The announcer on the radio was supposed to say to the crowd on the radio before the game, when he was reading the roster: "Oh, Ryan? Where did this horse come from? How come I've never heard of it? Is he a champion? Could it be that the little golden man of the Oscars was awarded to this horse? ”
And the people before the radio also had little hope for Ryan to win the championship. At this time, I heard the narrator shout in a crazy voice, "Oh, mygod! Here's what's going on! This horse can still speed up at this time! Could it be that this horse has a top speed that is even faster than the other champion horses? ”
"Remember, this horse's name is Ryan! Could he really be a Ryan (lion)? ”
In the crazy shouts of the commentator, Ryan's speed up forcibly pulled half the distance of the other eleven horses! And the running rhythm of the other eleven horses was actually disrupted by Ryan! In nature, horses, like other animals, are determined by the strength of their bodies and their running speed, who is the king of horses and who has the right to mate!
Ryan's strength made other horses who regarded themselves as the king of horses and rarely met opponents also became angry! The jockeys couldn't control the scene at all!
However, the biggest drawback of thoroughbreds is that they don't have stamina after a breakout. When the speed reaches a certain level, it is difficult to compare to the sky! Even if you barely speed up, you will not be able to follow. When the speed of the twelve horses is disrupted, the difference in blood is revealed. Some horses were exhausted and slowed down after barely gaining speed, while others were able to keep up with Ryan's speed.
The distance of 1,200 meters is fleeting for these champions! After Ryan established his advantage, it was already impossible for the rest of the horses to get it back!
In the end, Ryan had a half-body advantage. Race over the finish line. Win the championship in an upset! The money that was bet on Ryan for the rest of his life suddenly multiplied several times and became an astronomical amount! After all, the rest of his life will be captured in the first two places, and all of them will be staked. After doubling this money, it is almost enough to buy a few more farms or ranches for the rest of your life!
The bigwigs behind the racetrack naturally did not expect that the competition would be the result. The fruit that originally belonged to them was completely lost, and not only did they take a lot of money for the rest of their lives, but Ryan's worth also soared to millions of dollars!
A few bigwigs were extremely unhappy. However, Yu Sheng is a public figure of national concern. If you miss the bill, the Las Vegas brand will be smashed in the future, and no one wants to come again!
But just when the bigwigs were worried, information came from his subordinates. Tell a few bigwigs that Qing Xiaoyi, the wife of the rest of her life, is now playing coin machines in a casino in Las Vegas!
Several bigwigs lit up in their hearts, they did the gambling industry. If you lose money here, won't it be over if you win it back over there! Presumably, the rich man Yu has made so much money, and he will not feel sorry for his wife to spend a few extra dollars!
So, several bigwigs commanded at the same time. Be sure to serve Mrs. Yu well, so that Mrs. Yu can play happily and happily in the casino! Fight for every penny left for Mrs. Yu!
Qing Xiaoyi knew that Yu Sheng was busy making money in the past two days, and she also knew that Yu Sheng had recently raised supplies for the country. If you spend a little too much money, and if you don't make a little more, I'm afraid that the capital chain at hand will be broken. After all. Her move to open more than 50 Qingyu Chinese restaurants in the early stage was wise and decisive, but the money was still a bit fierce. Although it will bring income every day now, I am afraid that the donation of tens of thousands of tons of materials for the rest of my life will break my muscles and bones.
Therefore, I don't bother with the rest of my life, I finish dealing with the things at hand by myself, and when I am idle and bored, I come to go shopping. After walking around, I came to a gambling house. Qing Xiaoyi has been taught strictly since she was a child, so naturally she has never been exposed to these things. Looking at it, I think it's quite interesting. It seems that for her, this is a good place to make money!
The first toy Qing Xiaoyi chose was a coin machine. This kind of machine has been around for a long time. Known for binge-eating coins, the odds of winning the jackpot are slim. Moreover, the randomness is so strong that it is impossible to count at all! Unless later generations of computers appeared in this era in advance.
But! It's different for Qing Xiaoyi, a talented demon! Her brain seems to have been born to process all kinds of information. She only needs four or five hours a day to deal with all kinds of trivial matters in more than 50 Chinese restaurants in the United States. In contrast, in Shanghai back then, processing more than 100,000 words of intelligence materials every hour could really be regarded as a hobby.
When Qing Xiaoyi was drinking Coke and playing with coin machines boringly, she found that these coin machines seemed to be regular! Although because of the difference between machines, the wear and tear of the parts of each machine is different, and the law of winning the lottery of each machine is also different, but there is indeed a rule! Although it is difficult to calculate, it is not a problem for Qing Xiaoyi. She is a genius second only to the autistic person in the movie "Rain Man".
After drinking Coke for two hours and sending away seven or eight men who accosted him, Qing Xiaoyi could basically calculate the timing of winning the lottery with a certain machine. Some are after hundreds of coins, some are after thousands of coins, and some will alternate......
In front of a machine that she thought would hit the jackpot if she invested a few more coins, a white man yelled: "Fake! It's impossible for these broken machines to hit the jackpot! A bunch of black-hearted pigs! After scolding, he left angrily. Qing Xiaoyi quickly took over the machine. Then, very calmly, he put one dollar after another into this machine.
It's just that five coins were thrown. Then I heard a sound of ding-dong sound in the machine. Then, the coins in the machine erupted like a flash flood. Qing Xiaoyi had to ask the waiter for a bag of coins.
In the following hour, Qing Xiaoyi once again found a prey among dozens of machines. After the sale, he exchanged twelve dollars for a sack of coins. The American men around looked at an oriental beauty, and the coin insert that caused them to lose a lot of coins was not good, and they all heckled and cheered loudly!
At this time, the waiter next to the coin machine had already received orders from the boss. After helping Qing Xiaoyi convert all the coins into banknotes, he invited Qing Xiaoyi into the VIP room. There are no coin machines, there are spinning wheels and poker.
Americans seem to have a soft spot for poker, and in later generations, the annual Texas Hold'em tournament will attract the world's elite to participate in it. It's just that, here and now, people are not playing seven-card Texas Hold'em, but five-card stud!
Qing Xiaoyi naturally has never played this kind of game. After watching two games, Qing Xiaoyi went down by himself and lost more than $2,000. Then, there was a smile on the delicate little face. These five-card studs are easier for her to deal with than a coin machine!
The reason why the game of playing cards has become the hobby of many human elites in later generations is not because it has thousands of opportunities. It's because in the game, a person's computing ability and memory can be completely tested.
When two people play against each other, the competition is how many cards they remember and the order in which they remembers in the process of shuffling. And, based on memory, calculate your next card and your opponent's hole cards. On this basis, there will be the application of various psychological techniques. Otherwise, the so-called skill is just a farce for the opponent.
For most trained masters, it is remarkable to be able to memorize seven or eight cards in the process of shuffling the cards. But for someone like Qing Xiaoyi, who is almost unforgettable, it is not a problem to remember a dozen cards in an instant! If you're lucky, you'll be able to memorize nearly half of the more than 50 cards!
Therefore, this kind of game is not fair to Qing Xiaoyi's opponents. The unknown is known to the known, and the one who loses is called a miserable. Even if Qing Xiaoyi is not lucky, it is useless. Because she knows very well how lucky she and the other party are, she will try to bet as little as possible when her luck is bad. And once you judge that you are lucky, you will quietly increase your chips. Even a desperate bet, a stud.
"Oh, beauty, my cards may be a straight flush!"
"I want stud!"
"Okay, I'll follow!" Flip the card, but Qing Xiaoyi's card is a flush!
……
"Oh, beauty, I can tell you that my hole card is the ace of hearts!"
"How is it possible, your hole card is obviously a 5 of hearts!"
“…… oh! mygod! Are you a gambling god? (To be continued.) )
