Chapter 225
"Miss, do you want to continue?" The person in charge felt sorry for the money. Every family had to pay a hundred taels, and tens of thousands of taels were sold out all at once, without any effect, and it was a waste of money.

"Go ahead." Wei Yixue said.

"Miss?" The person in charge wanted to raise his opinion.

"That's it, I'm not afraid of spending money, and it won't cost much." Wei Yixue interrupted him.

"Yes, miss." The person in charge found that his layout was small, and the miss had the idea of ​​a miss.

"By the way, I heard that there is a gambling game outside." Wei Yixue called to stop the person in charge who was about to go out.

"Gambling game? I don't know what Miss is referring to?"

"Of course it's about the Shence Army." Wei Yixue smiled, "I think we can make a bet, and we can earn back the money we spent a few days ago."

Hearing this, the person in charge couldn't help being stunned for a moment. After regaining his senses, he hurriedly said: "Miss, you can't do it. Ten gambles and nine cheats. Those who sit in the dealership are all good people, so they can't be counted on."

He didn't expect that his lady would say such a thing. These people who sit in the dealership are all guaranteed to make money, and it is as difficult as heaven to win money from them.

"Can I still not know?" Wei Yixue smiled, "Go and find out what the odds are for Brother Feng, how about this, no matter how much it is, you go to each house and bet one thousand~~1 taels Bar."

"Ah?" The person in charge widened his eyes, "Miss, there are too many dealers, big and small, no less than a hundred, and it costs a million taels. We in Luoyang can't afford so much money at once."

Although the young lady didn't mention her relationship with Feng Shaoxia, everyone is discerning and has already seen it.

It makes perfect sense for Miss to place a bet in order to support her sweetheart.

It's just that such a large handwriting still made him a little unacceptable.

"So many?" Wei Yixue was a little surprised, "I thought dozens of companies would be enough, but I underestimated the influence of the Shence Army this time. So let's choose the top ten companies to bet on. Stop it, Brother Feng will win."

"Yes, miss." The person in charge secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Although 10 taels is a lot, it is not worth mentioning compared to the one million taels just now, and the semicolon in Luoyang can still afford it.

Wei Yixue believed in Feng Jiang, so the money would naturally win the bet.

Almost all the places to participate in the competition are now out.

Behind the establishment of this kind of gambling game is often a well-known force in Luoyang City. They are well-informed and have a detailed understanding of the strength of the major participants.

Why is it said that the bookmaker basically makes no loss, and they will change the odds with the number of bettors to ensure that they will definitely make money.

There are also some participants who operate secretly, such as originally optimistic that one person can win, but in the end they lose in an upset.

Of course, some dealers may also be targeted.

Generally, they are small dealers, and they can be regarded as black eat black.

The big dealers are powerful and have deep backgrounds, and generally no one will provoke them.

It's not that Wei Yixue lacks this bit of money, but that she earns for nothing.

Besides, doing this by yourself can also create momentum for Brother Feng.

Brother Feng, who is the general's limelight, will not go out, but other aspects are still possible.

For example, betting will always attract some people's attention.

The eyes of the Eldest Princess Mansion must be all over Luoyang City, and no trouble can escape their eyes and ears.

Wei Yixue just wanted Feng Jiang's name to appear more often with the eldest princess.

Although there is a recommendation from the princess, but later on you have to rely on your own strength. Apart from strength, there are other aspects that need ideas.

Wei Yixue knew that Feng Jiang was unlikely to be interviewed by the eldest princess for the time being, but Feng Jiang's reputation and name could still be passed on through certain channels.

Therefore, Wei Yixue will naturally do whatever is beneficial to them.

At the same time, it can also spread the reputation of their Wei's firm.

For example, Wei's Trading Company is optimistic about a young man and bets heavily on several bookmakers.

Of course, 1 taels is considered a lot, and betting like this in several companies will naturally arouse topics about Feng Jiang, Wei's firm, and her relationship with Feng Jiang in the city.

Feng Jiang went out the day before the competition started.

It is naturally impossible for Feng Jiang to make another breakthrough after half a month of retreat.

However, his strength has improved a bit.

It is really insecure in Luoyang, Feng Jiang knows that his strength is nothing in Luoyang.

In addition to keeping a low profile as much as possible and not letting some people notice, that is to improve one's strength as much as possible.

Your own strength is fundamental.

"Flying Dao Sect disciple Feng Jiang, his skills originated from the Dragon Tooth Sect. He is a young genius, and he is probably a master of the highest level..." Feng Jiang looked at some information about himself that Wei Yixue gave him, "Where did he come from? So detailed."

Most of the above information about myself is true. It can be said that the investigation is very detailed, that is, the strength is not accurate.

"The news from the dealer." Wei Yixue replied.

"Gambling game?" Feng Jiang was stunned for a moment, and then he understood.

Everything can be gambled.

There will always be no shortage of gamblers in this world.

The competition for Shence military official positions can give these bankers too many opportunities to play games.

The more everyone pays attention, the more people will participate, and of course more people will join the game.

These bankers will naturally make a lot of money afterwards.

It's just that their news is too well-informed, right?
"It's public." Wei Yixue smiled, and she knew that Feng Jiang must be a little surprised, "I think they got it from the backer. Brother Feng signed up for Qianhu. The news, after investigation by those forces, most of them will not keep it too secret, so I handed it over to them. This is also a way for the dealer to show his strength, hoping to attract more people to place bets on their side."

Feng Jiang nodded.

What Wei Yixue said made sense.

For big forces like the Tian Clan and the Princess's Mansion, the ones who can make them pay a little attention must at least be the masters above the guerrillas.

They will not spread the news of these people at will.

The news about these people was basically introduced by the big bookmakers.

Most of them are named sects, some deeds rumored in the rivers and lakes, etc., which are very false.

From these disclosures it is difficult to judge their true skills.

Feng Jiang said before that he would compete for the position of guerrilla general, but this time it was Qianhu who signed up. There is still a reason for this.

According to the rules of the competition, after the position is determined, the No.1 of the next level can challenge the last place in the previous levels.

If the challenge is successful, the official positions of the two will be reversed.

For example, Feng Jiang won the No. 1 of Qianhu, then he is eligible to challenge the last guerrilla general.

The losers of the previous level of competition lost the opportunity to challenge the next level.

Feng Jiang felt that this rule should let everyone recognize their own strengths, and not blindly compete for official positions that exceed their own strengths.

For example, some people's strength may be able to compete for the position of guerrilla general, but it is not too safe.

If those who have failed are given the opportunity to challenge the next level, wouldn't that encourage them to compete for the position of guerrilla general?
In the end, maybe a few lucky ones became guerrilla generals.

This is not the situation that the imperial court wants to see. What they need are real masters, masters who have confidence in their own strength.

When the time comes, those who lose will have no regrets.

Because their goal is to rush to the guerrilla generals, I am afraid that they are not willing to let them be thousands of households.

With such a rule, most of the people caught in the middle will choose to fight down, which can also improve the overall strength of the next level.

This is also a good thing for Feng Jiang, at least he will not be as sensational as signing up for a guerrilla general when he signs up for Qianhu.

Feng Jiang has already received the news that there are four or five young people who are about the same age as himself among the candidates for the Thousand Households Competition.

Not to mention whether they have the strength or not, these four or five people can distract everyone's attention.

He definitely wants to win the first place among thousands of households, so that he can challenge the last place of Guerrilla.

Although such a challenge is also attracting attention, Feng Jiang feels that this can attract the eldest princess' attention even more.

As for other disadvantages, Feng Jiang doesn't want to deal with them for the time being, and the advantages should still outweigh the disadvantages.

It is very necessary to show yourself properly. Being low-key does not mean being a little transparent, but leaving a deep impression in some people's minds.

"What about my odds?" Feng Jiang asked.

"There are many ways to bet. For example, bet on the odds of winning a thousand households, and the odds of winning the corresponding official position." Wei Yixue replied, "But Brother Feng, there is only one way to play. That is Bet to win the first place in a thousand households."

"Why? Discriminate against me?" Feng Jiang asked.

Wei Yi gave Feng Jiang a white look and said, "Brother Feng, those bankers are very well-informed, and they must know that you are from the eldest princess's side. And you may be one of the pre-designated thousand households. As long as there is no accident, you should be able to be selected as a thousand households." .So there is no need to place such odds again.”

Feng Jiang thinks about it too.

"Then what are my odds of winning first place?"

"One hundred for one."

"So you don't like me very much." Feng Jiang said in a daze.

"Of course, who told Brother Feng to be only 20 years old? If someone found out how old you were, I'm afraid that a hundred compensations would be too low." Wei Yixue covered her mouth and smiled, "You must know the basics of participating in the battle for thousands of households. They are all in their 30s, and there are many masters among them. I dare not say that they have a ranking in the top ten, but everyone in the top twenty is quite recognized. Brother Feng, you are not among them, but behind. Of course Those bankers must know the inside story, they think that you can be selected as a thousand households by relying on the relationship of the eldest princess, but it is impossible to win the first place."

"It seems to be right." Feng Jiang nodded.

Those bankers advertised that they were extremely powerful, but gamblers didn't buy it.

Too young, who dares to vote for himself?
Let alone winning the first place.

Wei Yixue giggled and said, "Of course, those of you in your early twenties are almost at the same odds."

The more so, the less people dare to bet.

No matter how you look at it, it is a game that must be lost.

The emergence of such high odds is basically a gimmick made by the dealer to attract everyone's attention.

If someone really wants to bet on Bobo's luck, he will never return.

"I wanted to bet Brother Feng 1 taels, but then I bet 1000 taels." Wei Yixue said.

"Why don't you go all-in, don't you believe me?" Feng Jiang said a little dissatisfied.

"Brother Feng, 1 taels is 100 million taels. Besides, I bought ten companies, 1000 million taels. Just thinking about it makes my heart flutter." Wei Yixue patted her towering chest and said.

Feng Jiang's eyes were a little straightened, and he realized that something was wrong, so he hurriedly looked away.

A trace of shame flashed in Wei Yixue's eyes, but there was also a hint of joy.

She pretended not to notice Feng Jiang's gaze, and then said: "That really offended these bankers to death."

It was only then that Feng Jiang realized that behind these dealers were powerful forces in Luoyang City, and they would definitely settle accounts after the fall if they made such a big commotion.

If Wei's Commercial Bank wants to gain a firm foothold in Luoyang, it has to establish a good relationship with these forces.

This has offended so many people, not to mention being unable to gain a firm foothold, but also being troubled by them, I am afraid that he will be kicked out of Luoyang City directly.

Wei Yixue made such a bet, the family will accompany 10 taels, although they are in pain, but they are still within their rice bowl, so it must not be so unreasonable.

"It's not bad, you can earn 100 million taels at once." Feng Jiang said with a smile.

"Who told me to have the most accurate information?" Wei Yixue said a little proudly, "I am the only one who can earn this money."

Thinking of this, Wei Yixue felt very happy.

"There are nearly 32 people competing for [-] quotas for thousands of households. The competition is fierce." Feng Jiang sighed.

"That's for them, what does it have to do with Brother Feng?" Wei Yixue pouted.

My brother Feng is the one who wants to be a guerrilla general, and Wei Yixue doesn't pay attention to Qianhu at all.

"We'll go and have a look tomorrow," Feng Jiang said.

"What's so interesting about the competition among hundreds of households?" Wei Yixue asked a little puzzled.

On the first day, hundreds of households competed for each other, and the number of hundreds of households increased to several thousand.

But even if there are so many people, the final 64 people will be determined within one day.

"Look at how the preliminary screening is carried out. I think the first round of thousands of households will be the same as that of hundreds of households." Feng Jiang said.

Wei Yixue thought about it and thought it was right.

There are too many people participating in Qianhu and Baihu, so the selection methods must be similar.

The number of guerrilla generals is much smaller, only a few hundred people.

As for joining the army, there are only half of them, four places, and only sixteen people participated in the competition.

"Then I will order them to prepare and take a seat at the front tomorrow." After Wei Yixue finished speaking, she called the servants and asked them to prepare.

The next day, Feng Jiang got up early in the morning, earlier than usual.

He is very clear, if not earlier, how can there be any front position?

There is a time for the city gate to open, no matter how early you have to wait for the city gate to open.

When they came, the gate of the city hadn't been opened yet, and the sky was not very bright yet, and many people had already gathered at the gate of the city.

This is Luoyang, but it's not easy for Feng Jiang to get out over the wall.

When the city gate opened, everyone rushed out.

Feng Jiang felt that his party was still at the forefront, but when they arrived at the ring area that had been built outside the city, they were a little dumbfounded.

It was already full of people.

The servants arranged by Wei Yixue went to occupy the seats first, there was no chance at all.

That servant ran out of the city ahead of them, and could only come back disheartened in the end.

"I'm really convinced." Feng Jiang was speechless after hearing the news he brought back.

Many people had been waiting here last night and never returned to the city.

Feng Jiang noticed just now that there were not so many people in front of them at the gate of the city.

Didn't the extra people just wait here all night?

It's crazy enough.

Of course, many of these people are engaged in small business, such as selling some food, taking advantage of the crowds to occupy a good position, maybe they can earn the usual ten days and half a month's money in a few days.
