"Oh~~ Your Royal Highness Princess, I haven't seen you for a while, but you are really getting more and more beautiful."

In front of the entrance to the Colosseum in Canterlot, Duke Poka gave an exaggerated compliment to Shelley, and a pair of small eyes swept around Shelley without any scruples.

In addition to him, quite a few of the nobles who appeared in Shelley's memory were present, and they were not in a hurry to enter, apparently wanting to see her jokes.

It's just a pity that Shelley in front of them is no longer the person they know, so naturally he won't follow their wishes.

This was the first time Shelley had seen this man since he crossed over. Sure enough, whether it was the thoughts left by Shelley before or her own feelings, she was disgusted from the bottom of her heart.

"Oh, I'm really flattered, you really don't need to make such a big show here for me, okay, let's all go inside."

When he said this, he immediately said that everyone was greeting her. This made all the mocking words that Duke Poka was about to say stuck in his throat.

Seeing his distorted appearance, Shelley smiled innocently: "What's the matter?" Could it be that they weren't welcoming me? ”

Everyone really wanted to scold her mother in their hearts, how did she become a greeting to her. But no one dared to refute anything. After all, in addition to these powerful people, there are also many wealthy people at the scene, including those businessmen from the World Chamber of Commerce.

Unlike these powerful people, the people of the Chamber of Commerce are really here to greet her.

When he saw Shelley being stopped by Duke Poka and others, Barbie was about to come forward to relieve the siege, but was stopped by Shelley with his eyes.

"Ahaha, what Her Highness the Princess said is that we are waiting for you here. After all, you're the biggest guest. Then since you're already here, please come in. ”

Polkadot said, pointing to the side. Shelley looked in the direction he was pointing, and there was a small door, and there was a long line at the door.

This is the ordinary entrance to the venue, and at this time, many people have been excluded from entering it one by one.

Those who enter through this normal entrance are ordinary people who are neither powerful nor rich, but have a small amount of money in their families. They all had in their hands the kind of tickets that the Duke of Pokata had given her.

Such a small door is naturally not the entrance that the real rich and powerful will walk, what they want to go through is a double gate that does not need to queue. Obviously, they were going to see Shelley line up with ordinary people.

"What's the matter, Your Highness the Princess? I've given you a ticket, but if you're not happy, you'll have to wait in a longer line. ”

Seeing that Shelley had been staring at the ranks of ordinary people, Poka thought that she was sulking because of the humiliation, so he urged unceremoniously. As soon as these words came out, some people in the crowd laughed. All of them are watching what Shelley is going to do.

Barbie, who has been watching this scene all the time, is also a little anxious. The companion beside her poked her and asked in a low voice, "Hey, did you forget to tell Her Royal Highness the princess yesterday that the admission ticket can only go through the small door?" She wouldn't give the VIP card you gave to her friend, would she? ”

Her companion's words were really something she was worried about, and she had the heart to stand in line with Shelley, but unfortunately the other party didn't let her, so she could only do it in a hurry.

Shelley never spoke, as if she had not heard the ridicule of the people around her, and her eyes were fixed on the ranks of ordinary people, and finally, after seeing the figure of the spring and looking at it, she withdrew her gaze.

"Duke Pokata, did you bring the thirty gold coins?"

The other party came over without a reaction for a while, how could he bring it over, because he had already planned with the salt governor to attack her in a while, anyway, after the end, this woman would be abolished, what gold coins do you need?

"Uh...... Your Royal Highness the Princess, didn't the invitation to you say that we would talk about taxation after watching this game? ”

In the face of Polka's sloppy eyes, Shelley did not break it, but said: "That bothers me, you didn't bring any money, what should I bet on?" ”

This woman still wants to play betting? The Duke of Pokata laughed angrily.

"Her Royal Highness the princess wants to bet whichever you want, I will pay for you, just deduct it from your thirty gold coins."

"Okay, then let's deduct it all, the most is on the last battle between filth and demonic beasts, and I bet on that filth to win."

Before coming, Shelley had already seen all the matches arranged today, and there was a battle between filth and demonic beasts, and it was also the only race melee today.

But strictly speaking, this is a consolation game, the only one where no one bets will lose. Because in this previous game, it was a battle of equal strength, which means that the bettors on the scene must have won and lost, and in order to comfort those spectators who lost money, the organizers often arranged a disparity in strength in the last game.

This is the number of games in which everyone can tell at a glance who is winning and losing, because everyone will buy the side that is clearly going to win. It also leads to very low odds, so you can't win much. It's just to let the people who lost money before win a game in the end, which can also be regarded as having fun. It can be said to be a benefit for the organizers.

Today's last battle is a battle between a little girl about ten years old and an adult demonic beast. Even if this girl is a superpower, she will definitely not be an opponent of Warcraft. The final outcome can be imagined. Perhaps watching the tragic death of a child is also an outlet for these people to vent the evil of people's hearts.

Generally speaking, when there is a huge disparity in strength between the two sides, basically everyone will buy Warcraft to win. As a result, the odds on the girl's side are particularly high, so there will always be some lucky people who buy the losing side.

But even so, they will not bet a lot of money, usually a few copper coins, and those who have money will only have one or two silver coins at most, and those who will pay gold coins are fools. I love eBooks

So when they heard that Shelley was going to bet all thirty gold coins on the girl, the crowd couldn't stop laughing.

"Hahahaha, my poor princess, you're really crazy about money." Duke Pokata smiled without scruples, "Good, good! You go and buy a bet ticket for thirty gold coins for our princess. ”

Duke Poka, who originally just wanted to perfunctory Shelley, actually asked people to buy betting tickets for Shelley.

The salt governor asked in a low voice, "Why did you change your plan?" ”

"Hehe, don't you want to see how stupid she looks when she sees her money go down the drain? Don't worry, the plan remains the same, and when the whole audience is over, there will be time to her. ”

The salt governor said helplessly: "Okay." ”

And Joel, who was standing beside them, didn't dare to say a word since Shelley appeared, and after Shelley made such an outrageous request, he was even more abrupt in his heart.

"Please, don't get into trouble."

However, the next scene had already made his already flustered heart begin to waver.

After Shelley, who got the betting ticket, confirmed that there was no problem, he said to Duke Pokata: "Well, that's the same, Duke Poka doesn't owe me money this month." ”

Duke Pokata's face immediately darkened. What does it mean that Lao Tzu owes you money? Is there anyone who talks like that?

Shelley didn't seem to see the other party's expression, and continued to ask innocently, "But then again, if you win, these thirty gold coins can be exchanged for a lot of money, right?" ”

Duke Pokata forced a smile and said, "Yes, yes, what you said is that a hundred times the odds can bring you a return of three thousand gold coins." Well, of course, in case of winning, poof......"

Shelley squinted, a smile flashing in his eyes: "Speaking of which, it seems that the dealer of the Colosseum in Canterlot is you, right?" If I win, will you be able to get the money out? ”

The other party patted his chest and said confidently: "If you dare to be a banker, you can naturally afford to lose." ”

"Hmph, it's a good talk, there are a lot of people here listening."

As he spoke, Shelley glanced at Barbie. The other party immediately understood and came out to say.

"Her Royal Highness the princess joked, the Duke of Poca's reputation is outside, and he will definitely not do the shameful act of not being able to come up with the money."

"It's just ~~"

The Duke of Pokata was a little strange, how did these people from the World Chamber of Commerce make up the fun. However, he didn't think much about it, but said to Shelley: "Yes, everyone is a witness, you should rest assured now, let's go and line up." ”

"What's in line?" Shelley took out the VIP card and asked innocently, "Do you have to queue up with this?" ”

The scene was silent, and the Duke of Poka looked even more like a ghost: "This ...... It's impossible, you haven't been here before, how can you have a VIP card! It must be fake! ”

"Duke Pokata, you're too ugly to look like this." The corners of Shelley's mouth curled.

As soon as he saw her expression, Joel's scalp immediately went numb. That's right, it's this expression, this woman is really not as simple as it seems.

"Gong ...... Lord Duke, it is indeed a real VIP card. The staff member who was called had an embarrassed look on his face after checking Shelley's card.

Not only Duke Poka, but everyone present had an expression like they had eaten.

According to the regulations, after handing over the holy stone on his body to the staff, Shelley shook the card in his hand and said to everyone: "Since there is no problem, then I will go in first." ”

Barbie and the others pretended to be ready to enter and followed behind Shelley.

"Your Royal Highness, you are too impulsive, these thirty gold coins are going to be wasted."

Barbie looked ahead, but whispered.

"It's not necessarily, stay away from me, these guys are going to do something to me today."

"What? Isn't it dangerous for you to come here? Otherwise, you can come to the SAR to watch the seats, with us, you will be safer, after all, we still have bodyguards. ”

"No, I've found someone good to protect me, and it's not time for you to reveal your relationship with me."

With that, Shelley stopped talking, and quickened his pace to the watchman's seat.
