After the rectification of the famine, the Qinglou gambling house was allowed to open again, and the usury that was used underground was basically all seized and sent to Shuanghe Town for labor reform, and its business was naturally taken over by the Northern Bank. Yi Feng did not directly intervene in the business of the Qinglou, and it was still run by those people themselves, and Huai Huang was just collecting taxes. But for the gambling house, Yi Feng also intervened.

Yi Feng didn't go to the dice shop or anything, he went directly to the lottery, and it was an exclusive monopoly operation, any gambling house and private individuals dared to operate the lottery, all of them were strictly investigated. The lottery is very profitable, and it doesn't cost anything, there is official support, and the business is quite smooth. At present, several lottery tickets are developed to bet simply, but the jackpot is attractive, the lowest is only two pennies a lottery, and the highest is likely to win five million yuan, which is five thousand yuan, and the mansion is enough to buy several buildings. Even the first prize has 1 million Wen, and the fifth prize of 20 Wen is easier to win. In short, anyone can try their luck by buying a few bets and investing in small prizes but high bets.

This polo match, naturally, is also open to bet on betting.

Huaihuang's polo league this time, a total of 36 polo team leagues, are the representative teams of the eighteen field battalions of the Wuzhou Army, and the representative teams of the eighteen military towns of the town army, the eighteen battalion teams and the eighteen town teams, becoming two camps, the competition system is basically Yi Feng takes the NBA system, first the preseason warm-up game, and then the regular season, playoffs and finals. This is a very complex and huge event arrangement, and to engage in such a league is to cultivate the fierce martial arts style of Huaihuang, and secondly, it can also add entertainment to the people. Of course, the guò polo tournament also strengthens the training of riding. The other is to make money. Yi Feng did not hide this, he needed money, and Huai Huang needed money. As long as you can make money. Naturally, he won't let it go. Polo is a popular and popular sport, and a huge and high-scale polo league is held to entertain the public and increase revenue. Tong guò ball game tickets, ball game betting and ball game sponsorship, etc., Yi Feng intends to make him an industrial chain. Huaihuang is a lively and prosperous commercial city, a trading city, and has great potential for consumption.

The polo league is just the beginning. In Yi Feng's plan, when it comes to autumn, an annual martial arts tournament will be held. This competition is actually a sports meeting. There will be more than one event. In addition to polo, there are various sports such as kemari, equestrian, archery, running, javelin, and car racing. Yi Feng believes that as long as it is done well, it can not only enhance the martial style of nostalgia. It can also be made into a money-making industry.

For example, this league is a test of the waters. Today's game was the first game of the league's regular season, and all 100,000 tickets were sold out, although most of them were group tickets, but the money was still paid for by the units. In addition, the intensity of this competition also makes the betting on this game very large, and you will definitely make a lot of money in the end. In addition, Yifeng has also introduced a sponsorship system, and many sponsors have been introduced throughout the league. Each industry selects a brand as a sponsor, and each team also brings in a sponsor. Just collect sponsorship fees. The league has now collected a lot of money. And as long as this first competition is successful and the advertising effect is very good, the sponsorship advertising fee will definitely be higher in the future.

The two teams in the opening tournament are sponsored by the top money-making industries in Huaihuang today, the salt factory in Salt Lake City and the winery in Seven Star Castle, each sponsoring a team. In front of 100,000 spectators, the players wore the brand jerseys of these sponsors and ran back and forth, which was very obvious, and the representatives of the two sponsors sitting in the audience were very satisfied with this effect.

The two teams on the field were from the most elite cavalry battalions, which could be said to be the strongest in the polo team, and everyone was fascinated by it. It is foreseeable that if nothing else, the final finals will definitely be contested among the teams of the three cavalry battalions. The officers of the cavalry battalion were very proud, and the officers of the other battalions who were watching the battle were thinking about the questionnaire that Yi Feng had sent earlier. According to Yi Shuai's plan, after the polo league, there will be a handball league, that is, everyone does not play on horseback, in fact, Yi Feng is preparing to imitate rugby completely, except for changing to handball. It's about fierce competition to make the event look better.

The soldiers of the infantry battalion and chariot battalion certainly have no natural advantage in playing polo as the cavalry battalion, but if a handball league is held, the infantry will definitely have an advantage over the cavalry. Now the officers of these infantry battalions and car battalions saw that the polo league was so popular, and they couldn't help but wonder how to make this handball league as much as possible. Hosting a league is not just lively, there are many lucrative benefits ahead. Although all kinds of sponsorship fees and advertising fees will eventually fall into the hands of the Shuai Fu, they will definitely be able to get a part of the hard work below.

Officers with archers and crossbowmen think about how they can play to their strengths and make an archery tournament. can think about it, and I also feel that the archery game will definitely not be able to surpass this polo game, and I can't help but feel a little depressed.

The Colosseum not only sells tickets, but also sells lottery tickets at this time, and is responsible for betting. The market has been opened long before the game, but even if the game starts, you can continue to place bets. Many arena staff were doing the final work in the audience with pencils and notebooks.

Yi Feng asked Li Jing, "Senior Brother Yao, who does he think will win the final victory in this game?" ”

"I think the blue team is better coordinated and should win in the end."

Yi Feng said with a smile: "I thought that the red team would win, although they didn't play as tacitly as the blue team at the beginning, but their will to play was more tenacious." You see their scrambles, every time they do their best. Although he was temporarily behind by one goal, he did not have the slightest drop in morale, but fought more fiercely. And I think there is a weak link in the blue team's coordination, and once one of the links is caught and targeted by the red team, I am afraid that the blue team's coordination will be disrupted. On the side of the red team, the personal strength of the Qin team leader is obviously stronger than the Guo team leader. If Senior Brother Yao doesn't believe it, is he willing to gamble with someone? ”

Li Jing didn't expect that Yi Feng would not only open a bet by himself, but also have to make a bet with him, so he couldn't help but smile. "What is Yi Shuai going to bet on? Let's talk about it first, I don't have any money, and now I still owe Yi Shuai a huge debt of 500,000 yuan. ”

"A certain horse has an oolong foal, so he bet on it. If the medicine brother wins, the BMW will belong to the medicine brother. But if a certain wins, well, I think it is better to ask Senior Brother Yao to train cavalry for a certain person, and also help a certain training and guide the infantry and chariot soldiers by the way, and train the coordination and cooperation of the next step, vehicle, and horse, what do you think? ”

Li Jing couldn't help but smile dumbly when he saw Yi Feng making such a request, "No matter how you look at it, it's a bit of a loss?" ”

"In this way, even if a certain wins, I will give the oolong horse to Senior Brother Medicine at that time, and in addition, how about giving Senior Brother Medicine another 100,000 yuan for hard work?" Yi Feng said with a smile. Yi Feng asked Li Jing to help him train cavalry, although it had only been a few days, he had been sending people to pay attention to the movements over there. The report that returned showed that although Li Jing's method of training cavalry was nothing special, Shan Xiongxin, Qin Qiong, and Zhang Jin said that the three cavalry battalion commanders were not dissatisfied, but they were very serious about training according to Li Jing's requirements. From this point alone, Yi Feng felt that Li Jing was indeed capable. The three cavalry generals were not good at it, and Li Jing must have used some method to subdue the three of them. Since this is a capable one, how could Yi Feng let it go so lightly.

"Good!" If you win, you can get a thousand-mile horse, and if you lose, you can not only get a thousand-mile horse, but also get 100,000 yuan, winning or losing is a good thing to make sure you don't lose money, and Li Jing has no reason not to agree. Yi Feng wanted to borrow him to train Huaihuang soldiers and horses, although Li Jing knew it but was willing. Li Jing thinks that he is familiar with military books and war strategies, but after all, he has never led soldiers, and he can only be regarded as talking on paper. Now there is an opportunity to train a large army in person, which is also a rare opportunity for Li Jing to experience. Li Jing, who has begun to train the Huaihuang cavalry, also has a lot of understanding of the Huaihuang army, the Huaihuang army's frame is very large, and the field army and the town army are as many as more than 100,000, but what can really be fought is the field army, and the town army is at most a shelf, and it can barely be regarded as a reserve. Even if it is a field army, it is estimated that it can fight only 10,000 or 20,000, and the rest are some new soldiers. However, because the Huaihuang army has won several battles and has not been defeated, the morale of the army is very high. And the ordnance of Huaihuang is also very good. But the equipment of the Huaihuang army has not yet been completed, take the three cavalry battalions he trained nearly 10,000 cavalry, so many cavalry, war horses are sufficient, 10,000 cavalry each have two horses, and there are almost 30,000 war horses in the pasture. However, the ordnance and armor of the more than 10,000 cavalry were not complete, and some of the old cavalry were neatly equipped, but many of the newly expanded cavalry were only equipped with military robes, cavalry knives, cuirasses, riding bows, and crossbows. As for the further tacit cooperation, it is even worse, a large number of Hu warriors can't even speak Chinese, and can only maintain a team composed of various tribes of the Hu nationality. In this way, the command and orders of the various cavalry battalions and companies could not be smooth, in short, under the repeated victories of the Huaihuang Army, many deficiencies of the Huaihuang Army were well covered. It's just that ordinary people don't see it, but Li Jing sees it very clearly. It is true that this has always been a winning army, but it is not a real elite division, and it is still far from that step.

Yi Fengken trusted him so much, not only was he willing to spend a lot of money to let him help train cavalry, but he was also willing to spend another 100,000 yuan to ask him to help guide other Huaihuang troops, Li Jing was not surprised, and he was also very willing. With the money given by Yi Feng, and then using Yi Feng's army to practice, he felt that this was a very profitable deal. (To be continued......)
