Datang romantic little landlord

"You..." Zhang Liang was so angry that he couldn't speak, how could there be such a shameless person?

Cheng Yaojin ignored him, strode straight to the front of Wude Hall, raised his voice and shouted at the officials and nobles standing on the steps in front of the hall.

"My lords, do you want to take a gamble in today's fight? Do you want to bet as I sit in the bank?"

People in the Tang Dynasty like to gamble, and this group of noble officials is no exception.Cheng Yaojin's words immediately aroused everyone's interest, and they asked questions one after another.

"Lu Guogong, how do you gamble? Please tell me clearly."

"Wahhahaha, it's simple. Just bet on the result of today's horseshoe. The Changping County man wins, one loses two; the Huxian man wins, one loses three; Fa, this can also be a gamble. If the Huxian man is true, you will pay one for one. If the method is not feasible, you will pay two for one. How much you bet, I will take it today. Who is interested in it? "

"Can we continue to fight in today's place?"

Cheng Yaojin laughed loudly: "Yes, why not? The man from Hu County will definitely play anyway. If Duke Changping refuses to play, then Duke Changping will admit defeat on his own."

When everyone heard the words, they couldn't help but looked at Zhang Liang, wanting to see how he would express his opinion.

Zhang Liang was so pissed off by Cheng Yaojin's words, seeing this situation, he could only grit his teeth and say, "As long as the Huxian man dares to play, I will naturally accompany him to the end!"

"Wahhahaha, look, isn't this the way to go? Today's fight will definitely continue, how about it? Who wants to gamble with me?"

Cheng Yaojin's words aroused everyone's interest, but someone asked: "Mr. Lu, we know at the Changping County Duke's mansion that his fake sons are all good wrestlers, but we don't know that Huxian Nan is here. Who is the beater?"

"My three sons, the eldest son of Zheng Guogong, the second son of Liang Guogong, the two sons of E Guogong, the eldest son of Qiao Guogong, the eldest son of Langya County Duke, and Huxian Nan himself." Cheng Yaojin said Li Wangyou's team list, but everyone shook their heads when they heard it.

A group of dandies from the Duke of the State, going to compete with those dummies in Zhang Liang's house?Isn't this purely funny?

Zhang Liang's dummies are considered well-known among the batters in Chang'an City, and many nobles present have watched their games.

And that group of dandies, compared to other honorable children, is not bad, but it is not enough for Zhang Liang, a group of fakes.

In the words of later generations, it is equivalent to a professional player playing against an amateur player. Is there any need to talk about the result of this game?

If a group of NBA players played against amateurs, would anyone believe that amateurs could win?The answer is naturally no. If you ask a hundred people, they will all choose NBA players to win.

At this time, all the officials and nobles thought so, and there was something wrong with the way they looked at Lu Guogong.

Is this old guy out of his mind?How could such a bet be opened?Changping County Duke wins one and loses two, so I am afraid that Duke Lu's mansion will bleed a lot today.

"Lu Guogong, are you kidding? Then I will bet 1000 taels of gold, betting that Changping County Duke will win."

"Don't worry, when will I stop talking? If you bet, you don't lose. As long as you dare to bet, I will accept it." Cheng Yaojin replied carelessly.

"Lu Guogong, if this is the case, then I will also bet 1000 taels of gold on Changping County's victory."

"I pressed 500 taels of gold..."

"I bet 2000 taels of gold..."

340 No windfall, no wealth

The old hooligan gambled there, and even because there were so many people who made bets with him, Cheng Yaojin specially recruited a servant from the palace to record it with a pen and inkstone.

Almost all the officials and nobles are betting on the victory of Changping County Duke, only a few people are betting on Li Wangyou and the dudes.

Li Wangyou couldn't help itching his teeth with hatred, he knew why the old rascal wanted to take them all to the barracks of the Zuo Jinwu Guard and lock them up for three days.

Feelings are about worrying about the leak of news, which will affect his bet at the beginning of the day?

Nima, this old scumbag is really too much!

Li Wangyou strode up to Cheng Yaojin's side, Zheng Zhengling leaned into his ear, and whispered in a low voice: "Uncle Cheng, the meeting will be split in half, otherwise my nephew will yell."

Cheng Yaojin glared angrily, Li Wangyou showed no sign of weakness... In front of Jin Jin, the threat of the old hooligan was not easy to deal with!

"Fuck off, brat, at most you will get [-]%, and His Majesty will take half of it." Cheng Yaojin said in a low voice.

"It's a deal." Li Wangyou stepped back contentedly, and watched with a smile as the servant kept recording the bet amount of the officials and nobles.

He is not greedy for [-]% for [-]%, and there is a lot of gold for [-]%. It seems that he is going to make a small profit today.

He made a rough calculation just now, and now the gold that is pressing on Zhang Liang is already about 2 taels, and hundreds of officials are constantly placing bets.

Sure enough, the ancients never deceived me, horses don’t get fat without night grass, and people don’t get rich without windfalls.

The most shameless one is Li Er, who actually kept silent and colluded with the old hooligan to scam money together.

No wonder Cheng Yaojin was able to bring so many broken weapons, swaggeringly made the polo field in front of Wude Hall into such a shape.

I have worked so hard to "invent" the horseshoe, and I have to practice with the dudes, and I have to play in the game to get [-]%.And Li Er didn't do anything, but actually wanted to take half of the gold, it's really shameless, I despise him!

It didn't take long for all the officials and nobles present to make a bet with Cheng Yaojin.

According to the final statistics, the amount of gold held by Duke Changping was as high as 5 taels, especially those from aristocratic families, who had placed a heavy bet.

5 taels of gold, equivalent to 30 copper coins, is indeed a huge sum of money.And if Cheng Yaojin loses, he needs to pay 10 taels of gold.

Li Wangyou thought innocently, I'm afraid the old hooligan really lost, and the Duke Lu's mansion would have to be his trousers, right?It might even be said that Nanuoda's Duke's Mansion has to be used to pay off the debt, tsk tsk, it's really enjoyable to think about it.

After a while, do you want to release water when you are guarding the goal, so as to find some excitement for the old hooligan?But forget it, the 5 taels of gold, including 1 taels of his own.

More than 6 copper coins are really not a small amount.

But Li Wangyou forgot, with his extremely bad horsemanship and batting skills, what difference does it make if water is released or not?

In front of the Wude Hall, the servant shouted loudly: "The saint is here!"

Everyone bowed and saluted, and Li Er appeared with the empress Changsun, Concubine Yang and other harem concubines who were pregnant with Liujia.

After Li Er's nonsense, he took a meaningful look at Li Wangyou, and was about to announce the start of the fight.

Zhang Liang suddenly stepped out and bowed to Li Er: "Your Majesty, I don't know why the fighting field has become like this today? Why did Duke Lu dump so many broken weapons in the field?"

He was still unwilling to compete with Li Wangyou on such a polo field. Even if he could win on such a field, he had to be careful, and there was no guarantee that some horses would be injured.

The horse's weight of nearly one ton, coupled with the running speed of tens of kilometers, brought a huge impact.

If the broken weapons in the field were stunned by the horses, they would be more powerful than a human being slashed with a knife, and the horses would definitely be injured.

Duke Changping's thirty fine horses were all collected by him through hard work, and they are extremely rare treasures on weekdays.

It would be too distressing if a few horses were crippled because of today's beating.That's why he came out and asked this question.

Li Er was very calm, just nodded slightly to Cheng Yaojin, motioning for him to explain.

The old hooligan stood up carelessly: "Today is a man from Huxian County. If you want to offer the method of protecting horseshoes to His Majesty, you will naturally have to strictly test it. When cavalry is on the battlefield, can you ask the enemy to clean up the battlefield before charging?" ? The old man’s layout is simulating the battlefield environment, can Mr. Zhang have a problem?”

Zhang Liang was speechless by Cheng Yaojin's words, so he could only bow his hands, expressing his approval.
