Volume 1: The Chosen Boy Chapter 91: Big Ratio Bet Payouts
Time passed little by little, and everyone who came to participate in the banquet also left one after another, but Zhou Yan and Hu Rong were still sitting at the wine table, and the two were talking and laughing, relaxed and funny.
Li Nian'er sat alone at another wine table, drinking by herself, looking so lonely. Obviously, at this moment, the conversation between Zhou Yan and Hu Rong has entered the realm of selflessness, and he even forgot his friend Li Nian'er who he brought.
Sima Chengwu and several city lords also came to say goodbye one after another, and Zhou Yan and Hu Rong also returned the salute one by one, but the two had no intention of leaving, only to see the two of them constantly picking up the wine and drinking it all, and the two laughed and laughed, and went straight to the sky.
Seeing this, Nangong Jinglong allowed the two to continue to stay in the city lord's mansion, and then sent someone to stay in the banquet hall to fully guarantee the supply of drinks for the two.
Ye Nantian also walked towards Zhou Yan with the three brothers Ye Yuan, Ye Wu, and Ye Long.
"Childe, aren't you going back to the post house today?"
Hearing this, Zhou Yan turned around and looked back.
"Oh, it turned out to be Grandpa and Ye Yuan, Ye Wu, Ye Long, you came just in time, just now Brother Hu Rong and I have become brothers, in the future, we will be blessed and enjoy hardships together!"
Immediately, Zhou Yan smiled heartily and continued, "Big brother, this is the current patriarch of my Ye clan, and also my grandfather, Ye Nantian, the three behind are my Ye clan's peers, Ye Yuan, Ye Wu, Ye Long!"
"In Xia Hurong, Night Studios, a second-rate martial arts family, the Hu family. Hu Rong has seen Patriarch Ye and three brothers, since Hu has already married Brother Ye as brothers, then he should also be honored as Patriarch Ye Grandpa!"
Ye Nantian couldn't hide his excitement, but this Hu Rong's martial arts strength was not weak, and it was also the cultivation of the late stage of martial arts, this Yan'er could worship Hu Rong as a brother, and it was also the glory of his Ye family, simply put, the Ye family and the Hu family had become allies at this moment.
"Hahaha, how dare you, how dare you, you are a strong man in the late stage of martial arts, or call me Patriarch Ye!" Saying that, Ye Nantian picked up the wine on the table and saluted Hu Rong. The two of them drank it all!
"Grandpa Ye said with a smile, since you are Brother Ye's elder, that is my Hu Rong's elder, this elder, I Hu Rong can still distinguish clearly, since I choose to worship Brother Ye as a brother, it is only natural to respect you Grandpa Ye, Grandpa Ye should not postpone it any longer!"
"Hahaha, since that's the case, then Ye Mou is not shirking, the two of you are swearing today, and we are inconvenient to disturb you, so we will leave and go to the post house to rest!" Ye Nantian said.
After Ye Nantian and his party left, Zhou Yan stretched his waist, he was completely tired all night, and Hu Rong on the side was also in spirit, and the two chatted for a whole night, and the two also communicated in many ways about things like Xiuzhen!
In the blink of an eye, the sky is already bright, the red sun is rising, the sun is shining, and the earth is covered in silver!
Hu Rong was told by Zhou Yan this night, and felt that cultivating the truth was a very novel thing, and Hu Rong had also decided to follow Zhou Yan from now on, regardless of whether Zhou Yan was a disciple of the Xiuzhen sect or not, he felt that making this decision was definitely a correct choice!
How many years later, let Hu Rong recall how correct the decision he made today!
Zhou Yan looked at Hu Rong, precisely because there would be one more friend like Hu Rong in the future. Since he has also married Hu Rong, as for some things, there are some things that cannot be changed, Zhou Yan no longer thinks about it, Zhou Yan himself is not an indecisive person, and then told Hu Rong the true identity of his family, Hu Rong was shocked when he heard this.
It turned out that the virtuous brother was the disciple of the first-class martial arts family of the Zhou clan in Qingshan City who escaped from the clutches five years ago, "Zhou Yan"!
"Big brother, that's right, I'm Zhou Yan of the Zhou clan! Why, big brother also knows about our family?"
"How can you not know this, the Zhou clan is a famous martial arts family of my Huang Yan Country, hoeing the strong and helping the weak on weekdays, eliminating the violent forces to help the weak forces, eradicating the rape, helping the weak, and being respected by the people of the entire Huang Yan Country. ”
"And in order to protect my Huang Yan Kingdom from being bullied by other countries, the patriarch of Zhou Tian even put on armor and went to the front line to resist foreign invasion, but he didn't expect that when he finally returned, he was poisoned to death by traitors!"
Zhou Yan's eyes were a little moist, Hu Rong saw this, hurriedly stopped, put one hand on Zhou Yan's arm, and comforted, "Brother Xian, these thieves who assassinated your family, if you let the eldest brother know and find out the clues, you will definitely find an explanation for the virtuous brother, this revenge will not be avenged by the non-gentleman, not to mention that this is the revenge of the exterminating clan, brother Xian, you are this revenge, I will help the eldest brother, in my lifetime, the eldest brother will definitely find out the real culprit for the virtuous brother!"
"Big brother, in fact, I have already found out a clue, but now is not the time to start!"
"Brother Xian, why is this, why did you find out the murderer and not avenge the family, can't you deal with the realm of Brother Xian's martial arts?"
"It's not, in fact, I always feel that there are people behind the scenes, so I don't want to be in such a hurry to startle the snake!" Zhou Yan said.
"I see, it's still the virtuous brother who thinks thoughtfully, then the virtuous brother needs the eldest brother to help, and the eldest brother will definitely help you mercilessly!"
"Thank you, big brother!" Zhou Yan arched his hand.
"Brother Xian doesn't need to be polite, you and I are brothers, you are like this to me, isn't it outside!"
Hahaha, the two laughed one after another, and drank another bowl of wine.
"Brother Xian, the night has passed like this, and then Brother Xian is going to prepare to return to Nanyue City?"
"Oh, by the way, big brother, just a few days later, it will be the Tiangu Summit held by Tiangu Peak in Nanyue City, I wonder if my eldest brother is interested in going with my brother to participate?"
"Tiangu Summit?"
"What kind of meeting is this?" asked Hu Rong.
"This Tiangu Summit is a gathering place for people in the Jianghu Martial Arts organized by the Tiangu Sect established on the top of the Tiangu Peak, mainly a place for martial artists from all walks of life to learn martial arts and a place for all kinds of dark private transactions. ”
In addition, Tiangu Peak will also hold the Tiangu Auction (which includes the auction of weapons of unknown origin: weapons, ordinary exercises, grade exercises, elixirs, golden sore medicines, and some strange things. )
"Oh, this Tiangu Summit is actually like this, then I'll go with Brother Xian to take a look!" Hu Rong was also very curious about what this Tiangu Summit was, so he decided not to return to the family for the time being, so he went to Tiangu Peak with Zhou Yan to participate in the Tiangu Summit that was about to be held.
Zhou Yan smiled, and then the two chatted a few more words, and then left the Nangong Mansion.
Yanxing City, the largest business in Huang Yanguo, outside the branch of Yantong Firm, at this time, the door of the store was already full of people who came to cash in the gambling money of the martial arts competition.
"What the hell is going on with this big competition, how did you all inquire privately, this information is all wrong, the one who should win is not winning, and the one who shouldn't win wins, you tell me, who is this Hu Rong, and who is this Ye Ling?"
"Feng Steward, these two are the disciples of a second-rate martial arts family, and the family has not entered the first-class ranks, so they have not been carefully investigated, but the three first-class martial arts families in Yanxing City are as the martial arts world said, Shi Qianjun, Liu Chenfei, and Feng Kui The three sons have indeed entered the late stage of martial arts, and the three of them are also one of the popular candidates to win the championship this year, but who knows, how could it become like this, not only did the three not only not one win, but they killed a Hu Rong and a Ye Ling halfway!"
"Okay, let's not talk about how much money can be made in this big competition, let's talk about the loss ratio of these two people, how much are they, have you calculated the result?
Returning to the wind housekeeper, according to Dabi's previous record, a total of two people bet on Ye Ling and seven people bet on Hu Rong.
The first bettor, Stone, bet on Ye Ling to enter the top ten, bet 50 taels of silver, and paid 800 times the silver taels, which is 40,000 taels of silver. Bet 5 taels of silver to enter the top three, and pay 1,000 times the silver taels, which is 5,000 taels of silver, and a total of 45,000 taels of silver will be paid to Stone.
The second bettor, Li Er, bet on Ye Ling to enter the top 20, bet 20 taels of silver, and pay 100 times the silver taels, which is 2,000 taels of silver.
The seven people who bet on Hu Rong, after all the payouts are calculated, total: 70,000 taels of silver.
After Feng Qiming heard this, his eyes instantly darkened, he shook his body, and almost fainted to the ground.
You talk about it, you talk about it, just the silver won by the person who bet on Ye Ling and Hu Rong to win, we have already lost a lot of money. How should I explain this to the boss of the business!" Feng Qiming, the big steward said angrily.
