Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty had the way to sit on the mountains and rivers, and the monarch was upright and the ministers were virtuous. The people were at peace.
There was a Sage King of the Three Qi named Han Xin. He destroyed the State of Chu and brought peace to the country.
On this day, when he had nothing to do and was strolling along the street, he saw a divination shed on the south side of the road.
The night was silent. The next morning, Su Chen and Old Master sat by the sea, listening to crosstalk and drinking tea.
After the old man took the serum yesterday, he was in great spirits. The old man even followed the crosstalk on the radio and sang the lyrics of the Taiping song, Han Xin's fortune-telling!
Although it was early in the morning, the servants in the manor were all packing their luggage and gifts that Su Chen had prepared for them. They were ready to go home for the New Year!
Only the two butlers and the Bio-Human bodyguards remained.
"It's the 29th of December. It's almost the new year!”Su Chen lit a cigar, took a puff, and spat it out.
"It's time to settle the New Year's goods!" The old man nodded in agreement.
"Let my mom, grandma, and aunt go out and buy it later! They like shopping anyway." Su Chen smiled.
After chatting for a while, Su Chen and the old man returned to the house and ate breakfast together.
"Mom, you guys can go buy New Year's goods later. Let's go and take a look at the horse racing." Su Chen suggested to her mother at the dining table.
"Alright, we're going out shopping too!”His mother nodded.
"Speaking of which, I've been in Xiangjiang for more than four months, but I really haven't gone to watch the horse racing. This was a major feature of the Xiang River!”Su Chen pointed at the television, which was replaying yesterday's horse betting scene.
"Isn't this just gambling?" First uncle looked at the rules of horse racing and said to Su Chen.
"How can this be called gambling? This is called risky buying.”Su Chen explained simply.
After breakfast, the woman brought the butler and bodyguards to shop for New Year's goods.
Su Chen and the others walked straight to the gambling track.
Due to the current weather in Xiang River, horse racing usually started at 10 am. It even started at night during the hottest summer.
Many of the racing horses here were raised by the rich or members of clubs. Firstly, having a strong horse could not only show off one's identity and strength, but also, if one won the horse race, they could get a lot of commission.
This included Li Jiacheng, who had a few of his own horses here.
They arrived at the casino. After everyone stored their mobile phones, they were all stunned. Then, he walked inside.
Although it was almost the end of the year, the place was still bustling with activity. Su Chen took a quick glance and saw that the entire horse betting arena could seat about 15,000 people. At this time, other than the seats in the front row, the other seats were basically full.
"Aiyo! No wonder I heard magpies chirping early in the morning. I knew something good would happen today! So it was Su Longtou who came to watch the horse race!”Su Chen had just walked to the front row, but before he could find a seat, the manager of the casino came over. He was all smiles.
"Su Longtou, I'm the manager of this gambling racecar. My surname is Lin!”The two of them shook hands and Manager Lin introduced himself.
"Hello, Manager Lin! I'm just bored and brought my family along. Let's take a look at the characteristics of Xiangjiang River, horse racing!”Su Chen introduced his family to Manager Lin. Under Manager Lin's lead, they walked toward the best viewing platform.
"Su Longtou also likes horse racing?" Manager Lin asked Su Chen after they sat down.
"I don't understand horses! I'm just here to watch the show!" Su Chen waved his hand.
Just as Su Chen and the others were chatting, the first match began!
There were a total of eight horses. The riders on the horses wore helmets and protective gear, and their bodies were abnormally thin! At this moment, all eight of them were half-squatting on the horses. Because this way, it could minimize the impact on the horse racing. It could bring out the maximum speed of a horse race.
"Hey!" Following a series of horse roars.
The match officially began!
"Number five is going to win the race!" Su Chen said to Manager Lin as he looked at the eight horses on the field.
"How did Su Longtou know that Number Five was going to win? One had to know that Number Five's current situation was not optimistic. He was only ranked fourth!”Manager Lin asked Su Chen.
"Among these eight horses, only number five is a pure-blooded ferghana horse! It hasn't exerted its strength yet!" Su Chen shook his head.
Although he didn't know much about horses, he could be considered a hedonistic son in his previous life. Relying on the hundreds of millions of demolition funds from his family, he was able to attract cats and play with dogs! Besides, he had a friend who ran a horse farm in Inner Mongolia, so Su Chen knew a little about the quality of horses. However, he was not proficient in it.
"Hahaha! Su Longtou still said that he didn't understand horses. Indeed, number five was a ferghana horse. Its name was Andre. Today was its last race!”Manager Lin said regretfully.
"Hmm?" Su Chen looked at Manager Lin in confusion.
" Andre is the Eagle Kingdom's Duke Brute's horse race. However, due to the financial crisis in Xiang River, Duke Brute has already sold all the properties in Xiang River and is preparing to return to the Eagle Kingdom tomorrow. Andre, because the price is too high and he did not show off his strength before, he has not had a good record. As a result, no one cared about it until now. Therefore, Duke Brute decided to bring Andrew back to the Eagle Kingdom!”Manager Lin explained.
"How much?"
"Eight hundred thousand dollars!"
"That's indeed expensive!" Su Chen shook his head. 800,000 US dollars, which added up to about 10 million Hong Kong dollars.
Originally, Su Chen had planned to buy it, but now it seemed that he should forget about it. If he liked riding horses, he could just buy some good-looking horses and ride them in the manor!
As expected, Andre, who was originally ranked fourth, sped up on the last lap. After only half a lap, he surpassed the first place by one body!
As Andre broke through the finish line!
Countless cheers and curses immediately erupted from the arena. The cheers were naturally from those who had won. There was no need to say anything more about the curses!
"Are you interested in playing?" Su Chen asked the old man, his father, and his uncle.
"Forget it, forget it. This risk is too great! Just watch the show!" The old man shook his head.
After watching the horse racing for the entire morning and feeling the atmosphere here, Su Chen and the other three walked towards the manor.
