With Han Gang's past achievements and the fate of his opponents in the past, when he is confident that he wants to bet with others, the world is often suppressed by his momentum, and few people dare to respond casually.

But Wang Yi is Han Gang's pillow person. Knowing that Han Gang is not sure about things, sometimes he will be more bluffing, but after he has a full calculation, he will pretend that he is not sure. I usually play chess at home and catch up with Shuanglu, and I don't use less tricks, so I won't be fooled for a long time.

"The officials are going to deceive people again."

"Then the slave family really gambled with the officials?"

Wang Yi and Yan Suxin said with a smile one by one.

"Do you really want to bet with your husband?" Han Gang laughed, and glanced back at He Ju, who had already sent Qu Li away, and was standing outside the door with his head bowed and his hands down, "He Ju, do you think this Feili Huang can win this game?" ”

He Ju listened to Han Gang's question, and walked two steps into the room.

He Ju and other big bosses and the line are all lifelong contracts, and they are subordinate to SF in terms of name, and the Han family is the big owner of SF Bank, and from the customs of this era, they are basically the servants of the Han family. Although he couldn't enter the inner courtyard, Han Gang's wife and daughter didn't need to avoid him after they came out. So when Han Gang was still outside, he led the daughter of the Han family into the box to settle down.

If it weren't for such an identity, the ladies of large families would have to wear hats to cover their faces, otherwise there would be some problems with their reputations - of course, the housewife who had to pick up the burden of the family could be an exception, and it was only limited to the official eunuchs, and ordinary people did not have so many rules.

"Back to Duanming's words, Feili Huang is actually not bad, if it is a game competition, he should be able to climb to the second level within twelve games. In today's game, if the distance can be halved, the win must be Feili Huang. And if it weren't for the rush as soon as it came up like today, it actually had a great chance of winning. He Ju considered his words and tried not to offend either side, but Wang Yi pouted slightly, still a little unhappy.

Han Gang showed his smug smile in front of Wang Yi, and looked a little frivolous and deliberately smiled: "How about it, is it right for your husband?" ”

Wang Yi turned his head to start the game and ignored him at all.

"But this situation is actually deliberate, and the owner of the horse in Feili Huang did not intend to win in the first place." He Ju suddenly interjected.

At this time, the game was already in the second half. After turning a corner, Fei Li Huang, who was gradually slowing down, and several racing horses catching up behind him were about to squeeze together, scrambling for the inner circle, making the race enter the white-hot stage. There were waves of cheering in the stands, and there were bursts of loud shouts in the box next door.

But Han Gang, Wang Yi, and Yan Suxin all turned back suddenly. "What do you mean by that?" Wang Yi asked.

"Whom do you want to win?" Han Gang has seen a lot of similar tactics in later generations, and when he heard He Ju mention it, he immediately reacted.

He Ju didn't intend to let go of this opportunity to perform in front of Han Gang, "Back to Duanming's words, it's the eighth black wind chasing clouds." No. 13 Feili Huang took the lead and ran with the other horses, as long as the other riders were unprepared, the second half of the race would also not be able to catch the strength. No. 8 Black Wind Chasing Cloud is the easiest team to follow, and it can sprint when it comes to the back. ”

Yan Suxin had a booklet sent in advance, which gave a rough introduction to the race schedule and the information of each participating horse. Printed with movable type. It is rough from paper to printing, and it is far less delicate than engraving. But it's fast and cheap. Although typesetting must be literate, it takes too much time for an engraver to carve out a book, and at the end of the day, it is still a little less typesetter, so the newspapers, advertisements, or scriptures and quotations distributed by monasteries to believers are often printed with movable type.

Yan Suxin unfolded the booklet, turned a few pages, handed it to Wang Yi, and said, "The horse owner of Black Wind Chasing Cloud and Feili Huang is not alone. ”

"It can't be one person in the first place, it's strictly forbidden in the format." "It's like a ball game, two teams can't be the same team. But it doesn't work on the surface, but it can't keep someone from doing things secretly. ”

In terms of the competition system, two horses from the same family were forbidden to participate in the same race from the beginning, in order to prevent this from using escort tactics. But in fact, such violations cannot be forbidden—as long as there are enough benefits!

He Ju lowered his head and replied: "Although Feili Huang and Black Wind Chasing Cloud look different, they are actually still one family. The two horses were bought together from Liangzhou four months ago. He said in a voice so low that only Han Gang and Wang Yi Yan Suxin could hear it, "This is news from Liangzhou in the industry, and it is Gao Taiwei's family." ”

Han Gang snorted, he knew that the Gao Taiwei in He Ju's words was Gao Zunyu.

Since the defeat in the Battle of Vaxia, Gao Zunyu has been thrown into idleness and scattered - fortunately, this war was won, he was not punished, and he still stayed in the capital, but there was nothing to do. Now it seems that he has found fun, but this temper of eagerness for success and profit has not changed.

"Black Wind Chasing Clouds is going to win!" Han Yunniang screamed at the railing of the window.

Han Gang and Wang Yi both turned their heads to look at the arena.

It was already the last lap, and the red flag used for prompting on the field was also waved, and the drum noise in the stands suddenly increased several times. Among the twelve racehorses, the only dark horse stood out from the melee at this time, and the speed gradually accelerated, like a black whirlwind from the outer circle to catch up, and in a blink of an eye, it entered the first echelon, and Feili Huang, who led the first half, fell behind, getting slower and slower.

"It's been a lot of work!" Han Gang shook his head and sighed.

He Ju said: "In fact, the rider of No. 3 Curly Maoqing is a top veteran, under the name of Pu Wangfu, and the winning side is not small, and now he is also in front." ”

"Pu Wangfu?" Han Gang took the binoculars and looked at it, then turned around, "...... Is it Pu Guogong? ”

"No, it's Ye Guogong."

Han Gang raised his eyebrows, it turned out that the backstage was Zhao Zonghan, the most amuseful Duke of Ye in the clan, and the youngest of the nearly twenty uncles who were still alive today.

Yingzong has many brothers, including Yingzong a total of twenty-eight. In the past few decades, the Pu Wang family and the title have been passed in the hands of Yingzong's brothers. Those who can attack the lord are all brothers, and it will probably take decades to fall to the next generation - the youngest Zhao Zonghan is only seven or eight years older than Shenzong.

Zhao Zonghui, who is now in charge of the Pu Wangfu, is Zhao Ji's uncle, and he is the envoy of the Pu Guogong and the Huaikang Army. If you want to be promoted to the king of the county, it will take a few years of hard work. It will take longer to rise to the heir of King Pu, and it is really difficult to say whether he can inherit the first lord of King Pu in the future.

The knighthood system of the Great Song Dynasty was different from that of the Han and Tang dynasties. Even if the prince is crowned by the descendants, he will not be knighted immediately, he has to rise all the way up from the county duke, the national duke, and the county king, and many times, it takes more than ten or twenty years to rise to the county king, and only after death can he be given another prince knighthood.

Such a system even made Renzong, and there was even a situation where almost no one in the clan had a prince, so that Emperor Renzong had to add the descendants of the ten Taizu, Taizong and Qin Mourning Wang as kings, so as not to be too ugly when entering the Taimiao, but the system of promotion of this knighthood has not changed. It has only been twenty or thirty years, and most of the royal troops in the clan have been reduced. Even out of Yingzong and the Pu Wangfu of today's lineage, there is no prince.

Zhao Zonghui is a rule-abiding person, and he can take over the Pu Palace, not only because of his high ranking, but also because of his conduct. But among today's uncles and uncles and brothers, there are quite a few who are playful and love to be lustful. Not to mention anything else, just the Keju team, Pu Wangfu has raised three teams. These three teams, because of their position, are concentrated in one division, and they have to fight several times in each season for the first two years, fighting for a qualification to the playoffs. Also this year, under the mediation of Zhao Zonghui, two of the Guogongs who raised the Keju team finally moved - otherwise the brotherhood will be gone in two years, and if they can enter the playoffs in the Beijing League, it will represent tens of thousands of incomes - Zhao Zonghan is one of them.

Han Gang laughed: "Isn't it enough to raise a Keju team?" Even the horses got involved? ”

"Horses are promoted from the lower to the higher, and if they are to be at the top of the race, it only takes six races to move up to the first division. And having a first-class horse in your hand is no worse than having a playoff team in your hand right now. He Ju glanced at the eldest daughter of the Han family, and his voice suddenly became even lower than before, "Those who can play are stallions that have not been castrated. If you get two more first places, you won't be able to run in the future, and it's okay to run three or five thousand times a year, who can not be tempted? ”

Han Gang shook his head, this selling point was still what he told Feng Congyi, and there was no need to relay it.

The horse racing league is just emerging, and it is far from the time to form an industry. That is to say, the horse racing will always blow up the concept of the stallion economy by going around. The champion horse is not worth twenty or thirty times at a time, but it is not worth it, and Longxi is not so exaggerated. But there are many rich and noble families in the capital, and everyone squeezes into it, so naturally the price rises, which is similar to the common situation in later generations. But it's also because there is an example of the Keju League in the front, otherwise it wouldn't be so easy to get hooked.

"Ye Guogong is still for the sake of face." Wang Yi doesn't like to mention money for everything, and she doesn't like what He Ju said.

He Juzi didn't dare to argue with the master's mother, and lowered his head silently.

But Han Gang said: "What he said is right, it is indeed for the sake of face." But the three daughters of Ye Guogong's family are also old, and the dowry is not easy to handle. It's not convenient to borrow between brothers, which family doesn't have a daughter to be in the boudoir, what should I do if I worry about the dowry. You can't lose the face of King Pu's mansion. He laughed, also face.

The clan is not qualified to fight the idea of power, and for the status to the level of Zhao Zonghan, money and face are very important.

As they spoke, they only heard a roar like a landslide, accompanied by the drums and trumpets that decided the outcome of the game, and tens of thousands of people came out in unison. Han Gang looked at the past, and it was actually a gray horse with a dull color strutting after the finish line, and Black Wind Chasing Cloud and Curly Qing, who were competing for the top spot before, did not know when, they actually fell behind.

"The black horse and the blue horse collided." Jin Niang turned around and said softly.

"The world is unpredictable!" Han Gang laughed.
