After a while, Cheng Chuyu finally calmed down.
Looking at the 100,000 taels of silver in his hand, Cheng Chuyu thought to himself that he had to find a way to help his family earn some money in the future.
Retracting his thoughts, Cheng Chuyu took the hundred thousand silver notes and left.
When he arrived at the Duke of E Residence, he handed the money to Yuchi Baolin and asked him to help place a bet.
He also instructed Yuchi Baolin to divide the money into twenty portions and send people to the gambling dens secretly controlled by the various aristocratic families to place bets.
Seeing this hundred thousand silver, Yuchi Baolin was speechless. He had tried everything to gather fifty thousand silver, but he didn't expect Cheng Chuyu to be able to gather so much.
After being surprised for a while, Yuchi Baolin hurriedly took the money and found someone to pass on the matter.
In fact, Cheng Chuyu had thought about betting on his own, but his identity was too sensitive now. It was inevitable that people would be suspicious if he took so much money to bet on himself.
Even if those aristocratic families did not think that he would win, they might secretly do something, such as lowering the ratio of winning and losing.
Dividing the money into multiple portions and letting Yuchi Baolin send people to invest would not attract so much attention.
Even if some aristocratic families were suspicious and found out that it was Yuchi Baolin who placed the bet, they probably wouldn't care too much.
Everyone knew that Yuchi Baolin had a good relationship with Cheng Chuyu, so it was not strange that she would bet on Cheng Chuyu's win to support him.
After that, Cheng Chuyu got Yuchi Baolin to inform the others and let them place their bets according to his method.
...
...
More than a dozen people had gathered more than 300,000 taels of silver. Including Cheng Chuyu's 100,000 taels of silver, they had invested nearly 500,000 taels of silver.
Although this large sum of money was all invested separately, most of the gambling dens were connected. After counting each other, they found that in less than a day, Cheng Chuyu's bet was close to 500,000 taels.
The aristocratic families behind the casinos felt that this was very strange.
As everyone knew, Cheng Chuyu was an out-and-out profligate young master. How could someone think that he could win the championship in the competition?
This was undoubtedly an inconceivable thing.
However, most of the aristocratic families did not care too much. They only thought that some people were lucky. After all, this ratio was indeed tempting.
There were also aristocratic families who went to investigate, but they were relieved after learning that it was Yuchi Baolin and the others who had sent people to place the bet.
No one probed further. After all, this was just a generous income for them.
Could Cheng Chuyu really win?
However, due to the large amount of money, the various aristocratic families still lowered the proportion of Cheng Chuyu.
It went from 500:1 to 50:1.
Even though it had been lowered by quite a bit, the ratio was still much higher than the other young masters of the aristocratic families.
Cheng Chuyu could not help but feel a little regretful when he learned of this news.
However, it was still within his acceptable range.
...
...
The next day.
The Chang 'an Tournament would be held today.
The young masters of the various aristocratic families were all excited. They rubbed their fists and were eager to give it a try.
Regardless of whether he could stand out in the competition and win the beauty, this was a good opportunity to perform.
If he performed well, even if he failed in the end, he might be able to gain Li Shimin's favor and smooth out his career.
At the same time, many of the young masters of the aristocratic families had not forgotten that Cheng Chu Yu had declared that he would defeat them. Each and every one of them wanted to humiliate Cheng Chu Yu to vent their anger.
In addition, due to the fact that the competition was about to begin, all the gambling dens had stopped betting.
According to incomplete calculations, the amount invested in Zhangsun Chong was about four million taels, Du He was nearly three million taels, Li Dejian was about the same as Du He, about three million taels. There were also a few popular candidates, such as Wei Zheng's eldest son Wei Shuyu, Fang Xuanling's eldest son Fang Zangzhi, Gao Shilian's eldest son Gao Shixing, etc., all ranging from one to two million taels.
Even Hou Sailei had bet more than one million taels.
As for Cheng Chuyu, he only bet 550,000 taels.
Other than Cheng Chuyu and the others, most of the rest were lucky and went for the huge difference in ratio.
All the bets added up to nearly thirty million taels.
This did not include the bets outside Chang 'an Fortress. If it was counted, it would be an extremely terrifying number.
From this, it could be seen that there were many rich people.
Cheng Manor.
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for completing the daily check-in. You have received: There were 100 designs for women's underwear, each with a different style!”
Cheng Chuyu had just woken up and washed up when he heard the system notification. He immediately had a strange expression.
He was a man, why was he rewarded with a lingerie design blueprint?
However, he did not care too much about it. It was not the first time the system had rewarded him with some strange things.
After changing into a luxurious outfit, Cheng Chuyu came to the lobby.
Cheng Yaojin, his wife, and his three brothers and sisters-in-law had been waiting for a long time.
The competition this time was extremely important to Cheng Chuyu, so they all decided to cheer him on.
Cheng Yaojin took a deep look at Cheng Chuyu, then waved his hand and said,"Let's go!"
...
Almost at the same time, all the young masters of the aristocratic families set off for the venue of the theory examination, the directorate.
In the palace of Princess Changle in the imperial palace, Li Lizhi, who had been depressed for the past two days, had a beautiful smile on her face.
"I can finally see him again…”
