Miss Liu caught him and lectured him, "My grandfather and grandmother have said more than once that we don't allow dandies in our family, and we don't allow bullying outside..."
Liu Huan was so annoyed that he dragged Bai Erlang to change positions. Bai Shan and the other two people on the side did not say anything, but looked at the field seriously. After a while, the three of them smiled and looked at the cakes, bent down and accelerated their horses to rush over.
At the beginning of the second lap, I lost a lot of distance behind the people behind me.
On the last lap, she rushed to the finish line in the lead. Manbao and others cheered, and even Mrs. Zheng stood up from her seat in excitement. After taking a distant look, she couldn't help but lead others down and take a closer look.
.
Miss Liu was also attracted and stopped talking about it. She looked at the person who crossed the finish line first and asked, "Who is this? She looks very good-looking. Is it a dancer from the Western Regions or a businessman?"
female?"
Man Bao said proudly: "He is mine."
Miss Liu couldn't help but look at her, "Did you bring it back from the Western Regions?"
Man Bao nodded, "How's it going? Not bad, right?"
When Miss Liu saw that Xi Cake had come to collect the bounty, she nodded and said, "That's good. What else can she do?"
Man Bao said: "I can also dance the sword."
Mrs. Liu's eyes lit up and she couldn't help but said, "When will we let her dance a sword dance for us as a reward?"
"No problem, I'll mention it to her when she's in a good mood."
Miss Liu was filled with envy and asked, "Are there many women like this in the Western Regions?"
Man Bao wasn't sure, "It's quite a bit."
"Can you sell me two?"
Western Cake, who had just received the bounty, felt as if he was struck by lightning when he heard these words, and was stunned for a moment.
Man Bao smiled and said: "That won't work. I promised them not to sell theirs anymore, and they will have to get married in the future."
Miss Liu said: "I will let them get married in the future, the price is not an issue."
Man Bao glanced at Liu Huan and saw that he had no intention of interfering, so he shook his head firmly. Speaking of which, this person gave it to Liu Huan in the first place, but Liu Huan didn't want it so he gave it to her.
Mrs. Liu was very sorry to see Manbao unwilling to let go. She didn't want to force anyone to do anything.
Xibing breathed a sigh of relief, took the money bag and came forward. He knelt respectfully in front of Manbao and said, "Sir, this is the money that this slave has won."
Man Bao smiled and said: "Since you won, just keep it yourself."
Xi Cake responded happily, kowtowed before putting the money bag away, turned around and stood behind Man Bao.
Miss Liu was still feeling regretful? Then she saw two women from the Western Region entering the competition in the next few games. Even if they couldn't get the first place, there would always be one of them who could get the second or third place.
Famous? It doesn’t matter once or twice. Four times in a row, a foreign girl won the ranking? The onlookers couldn’t help but start talking.
"Is this a servant from whose family, or a merchant girl or dancer brought by some caravan? I think they all wear the same clothes."
"That style doesn't look like the clothes from the Western Regions? Are you a servant of someone's family?"
"Who can come up with eight such dancers at once?"
"Isn't it eight? Is it ten? Do you think there are still people queuing up to pick horses?"
"Really? Hey, who is so ignorant? Are you here to cause trouble or to show off?"
The movement here quickly attracted people in the stands on the other side of the stadium. Everyone came over to watch the excitement.
Zhao Liulang also ran over with a group of people cheering. He could tell whose family was making the noise at a glance. So he went straight to Bai Shan and the others. "It's so lively. There are bets being placed above. Everyone is betting on this."
Is it the Western Region woman or who will win the championship? Do you want to place a bet?"
Bai Shan and others shook their heads together.
Zhao Liulang said: "There are several kinds of bets. One of them is? Can they still get the ranking? The odds of getting it are 1 to 1. The odds of not getting it are 3 to 3."
Several people still shook their heads.
Zhao Liulang said: "This is very simple, you just need to let them release the water..."
Man Bao: "Is it the same as when you play polo and match-fix?"
Zhao Liulang: "...We never match-fix!"
Man Bao glanced at him and said: "My girl will not run a fake horse, this is a matter of integrity!"
Zhao Liulang: "...can make money."
Man Bao: "A gentleman loves money in a wise way. Don't tell me that you want me to run a fake horse race, just a word of gambling is not enough. Besides, do you think I am short of money?"
Zhao Liulang choked on the last sentence and couldn't find anything to say for a long time.
Zhao Liulang could only ask, "How are their equestrian skills?"
Man Bao thought for a while and said, "It seems pretty good."
They also wanted to ride horses since they were young. After all, all the Hu people could not ride horses. Occasionally, distinguished guests would let them perform and take them hunting, so they returned.
When it comes to equestrian skills, they are better than Man Bao and others.
Zhao Liulang thought for a while, then took out another twenty taels and gave it to the boy, asking him to bet that they would win.
She felt a little regretful, "I took a big risk with this move. If they win, I will make little money. If they lose, I will lose everything."
Bai Shan glanced at him and said, "You don't have to bet."
Bai Erlang said: "You still owe us money. We agreed to pay it back when we come back from the Western Regions."
Zhao Liulang waved his hand grandly, "Don't worry, I will give it to you after I sell the last box of spices."
Bai Shan couldn't help but ask him, "I heard you sold the spices for a lot of money. Are they so valuable?"
"Then it depends on who they sell it to," Zhao Liulang said with some satisfaction. He glanced at them and said, "I know that you brought back a lot of good things when you came back this time. So many things came into the capital at once, and you want to sell them all.
It’s impossible.”
Man Bao said: "We don't want to do it all in the capital. In a month or two when the weather gets warmer, my family will return to Mianzhou, and then we will take some of them to Yizhou."
Zhao Liulang: "...Yizhou can't eat it, right?"
"Even if you eat it, the price won't be very high," Zhao Liulang was afraid that Zhou Man would say "I can eat it", so he immediately said: "You can't keep so many things in your hands for three or two years before selling them, right?"
Bai Shan glanced at him and asked, "Do you want to help?"
Zhao Liulang then smiled and said, "It's just a classmate. If you ask, I can still help."
He didn't want others to know, so he spoke in a low voice. Now he simply put his arm on Bai Shan's shoulders and whispered to them, "If you don't worry, just give me some and I'll give it to you."
Sell it and just treat me to a drink later."
Bai Shan shook his head, "It doesn't have to be like this. I'll set a price for you and you sell it. The extra money is yours. You can just give us the price we set later."
Zhao Liulang raised his eyebrows, reached out and patted his shoulder and said: "Good brother, I have written down your affection."
Bai Shan shook his head and pulled his hand down, "No, it sounds terrible."
