Zhao Puguang, the crown prince of Daliang Kingdom, suddenly stepped in. What did he want to do? Did he want to stop the gambling? Or did he have other ideas?
Everyone looked puzzled.
Zhao Puguang walked out of the crowd and said with a smile: "I want to participate in the gambling game. I wonder if you can agree?"
"Huh?" Gao Shanshui was stunned: "His Royal Highness also wants to participate?"
"Yes." Zhao Puguang nodded: "Please agree with Mr. Gao."
Gao Shanshui turned to look at Ma Xiaoyao and Xing Yajun: "What do you two think? Do you agree that His Highness the Crown Prince will join the gambling game?"
Ma Xiaoyao shrugged: "Okay, the more people there are and the more fun there is, the more money you win."
Xing Yajun smiled bitterly: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince wants to participate in the gambling game, how dare I object?" You must know that Xing Yajun is making a living on the border of Daliang Kingdom. If he offends the Crown Prince, then he can only choose to run away. If he continues to stay,
In Daliang Kingdom, you will definitely be punished by the prince to death.
"I agree." Gao Shanshui expressed his attitude. He didn't want to offend the crown prince of Daliang for this trivial matter. Daliang's national power was relatively strong, so he should try not to offend him if possible.
Many friends are much better than many enemies these days.
"I'll put up one million taels of silver and bet Gao Lao to win." Zhao Puguang said in a calm tone.
"Ah? What?" Gao Shanshui was stunned: "You don't directly participate in gambling?"
Zhao Puguang shook his head slightly: "Although I like betting on stones, my skills are average. If I bet against you directly, the chance of losing will be very high, so I will simply bet on Gao Lao. This will not only save worry, but also
You can win money and kill two birds with one stone."
"This..." Gao Shanshui hesitated. What Zhao Puguang did was a bit unruly.
"What? Mr. Gao has any objections?" Zhao Puguang asked.
"Hmm...I don't have any objections. I just don't know whether Mr. Ma and Shopkeeper Xing agree..." Gao Shanshui transferred the problem to Ma Xiaoyao and Xing Yajun in one sentence. He was really an old fox.
"Mr. Ma, look at this..." Xing Yajun asked Ma Xiaoyao for his opinion.
Ma Xiaoyao smiled slightly: "Since His Highness the Crown Prince wants to gamble, I certainly can't stop him."
"So, you agreed?" Zhao Puguang's eyes lit up.
Ma Xiaoyao nodded: "I have no reason to refuse."
"Haha... refreshing!" Zhao Puguang grinned: "I just like to deal with people who are refreshing." At this point, Zhao Puguang turned his head and glanced at the crowd around him: "Is there anyone else who wants to participate in the gambling game?"
"I'm participating! I'll bet Gao Lao to win with one hundred thousand taels of silver!"
"I'll bet Gao Lao to win 500,000 taels of silver!"
"I will pay eight hundred thousand taels of silver..."
…
In the blink of an eye, more than twenty powerful people participated in the gambling game, and they all placed their bets on Mr. Gao. After careful calculation, the bet had reached eight million taels of silver.
In other words, if Ma Xiaoyao loses, he will pay eight million taels of silver on the spot. If he wins... then he will be rich.
"This... this is too crazy..." Xing Yajun swallowed hard.
Ma Xiaoyao did not expect that so many people would bet on Gao Shanshui, and things seemed to be a bit out of control.
"Mr. Ma... we..." Xing Yajun looked at Ma Xiaoyao with a pale face, and his words were trembling: "Look..."
"Shopkeeper Xing, you should be able to come up with eight million taels of silver, right?" Ma Xiaoyao asked.
"You can take it out if you get it...but..."
"That's fine."
"Mr. Ma..."
"Keep your heart in your stomach, we won't lose this round."
"..." Xing Yajun opened his mouth to say something, but all his words turned into a sigh. Now, he can only bite the bullet and rush forward. As for the result... it depends on God's will.
.
"Hahaha... How could such an interesting game be without me?" A man wearing a light blue gown walked from a distance. He had slightly dark skin and a thin body, but his eyes were bright.
"The second prince of Daliang Kingdom..."
"Why is he here?"
"As far as I know, the second prince and the prince have never been on good terms..."
"It's really getting more and more lively."
…
There were waves of discussion all around.
The person who came was none other than Zhao Jinliang, the second prince of the Liang Kingdom. As everyone said, he and the prince Zhao Puguang had never been on good terms. As for the reason... I guess everyone can guess it. Yes, just for the throne, the second prince Zhao Jinliang also wanted to be the emperor.
, so a clear hostile relationship formed between him and the prince Zhao Puguang.
The two fought for many years, winning and losing each other.
"Second brother is here." Prince Zhao Puguang greeted him calmly.
"Brother, I heard that you participated in the gambling?"
"That's what happened."
"You bet on Mr. Gao?"
"Yes."
"Then I'll place my bet on this gentleman." Zhao Jinliang pointed at Ma Xiaoyao.
"I wonder how much my second brother plans to bet?" Zhao Pugu asked with a smile on his face.
"Three million taels of silver." Zhao Jinliang said in astonishment: "My little brother brought so much silver today."
"Second brother, you have to think clearly. Once you lose, the three million taels of silver you bet will be gone..." Zhao Puguang seemed to remind him kindly: "You'd better think about it carefully, otherwise
Just bet on Mr. Gao..."
"Brother, stop talking." Zhao Jinliang waved his hand: "I have made up my mind and I will never change it."
"Okay, since you insist on doing this, I won't say more." Zhao Puguang shrugged helplessly: "It's just that you will lose money later, so don't be too sad."
"Stop talking and cut the stone quickly." Zhao Jinliang said impatiently: "Cut the stone and everything will become clear to you."
Zhao Puguang waved to the two guys standing next to him: "Don't be stupid, cut the stone open quickly, be careful with your movements, don't hurt the things inside."
The two men who received the order immediately took the knives and started cutting the stone.
"Kacha kacha..."
"Kachacha..."
"Pfft!"
The stone selected by Gao Shanshui was cut open first, and a dazzling green light flashed out from inside the stone.
"There's something! It's a piece of jade of excellent quality!" The man shouted loudly: "It's big, of good quality, and worth at least five hundred thousand taels of silver."
"Hahaha..." Prince Zhao Puguang looked up to the sky and laughed: "Old Gao is indeed a senior in the stone gambling world. He can cut out jade worth hundreds of thousands of taels of silver from any stone he chooses. It's amazing, it's amazing."
"Yes, Mr. Gao is definitely the Beidou of the stone gambling world!"
"Lao Gao must have won this bet."
"Today's trip is really worthwhile."
"It's true that I bet on Mr. Gao. I easily earned one hundred thousand taels of silver. Although it's not much, it's enough to squander for a while."
…
Many powerful people have spoken out to praise the mountains and rivers.
Gao Shanshui himself is also smiling. He has been very confident in himself from the beginning. He has been playing stone gambling for more than 300 years. His experience is so rich. How can it be compared to a fledgling boy? If not for helping
If his grandson or granddaughter regains his face, he will not gamble with Ma Xiaoyao.
"You are too happy too soon." The second prince Zhao Jinliang curled his lips: "The stone Mr. Ma selected has not been cut yet. How do you know it is Gao Laoying? Do you have clairvoyance? Or do you have clairvoyance?
The ability to predict the future?"
"Second brother, I know you are not convinced by the loss, but the facts are before your eyes." Prince Zhao Puguang sarcastically said: "The stone Mr. Ma picked out is just ordinary. I don't think anything good can be cut out of it...
…”
"Crack!"
The stone selected by Ma Xiaoyao was finally cut open, and a dazzling white light appeared from inside the stone.
"Good guy! It's a luminous pearl!" The man who cut the stone exclaimed loudly: "This is the first time I have seen such a big luminous pearl!"
Night Pearl?
Everyone looked around, and sure enough... there was a luminous pearl the size of an adult's fist in the cut stone. It was dazzling, crystal clear, and beautiful...
"Hahaha..." This time it was the second prince Zhao Jinliang's turn to laugh out loud, as brightly as he wanted: "Okay, okay!!! Mr. Ma, you are such a strange person! Pick out a stone at random.
You can cut out such beautiful luminous pearls! It’s amazing, it’s amazing!!!”
"It's actually a luminous pearl?" Prince Zhao Puguang's face turned ugly. Such a big luminous pearl is very valuable.
Gao Shanshui and the five brothers and sisters of the Gao family were also stunned. What they thought was a sure bet turned out to be... about to lose...
Anyone who is not a fool can see that the luminous pearl is worth much more than the green jade.
There was another person at the scene who was very happy. He was Xing Yajun. When he was cutting the stone just now, his nervous heart almost jumped out of his chest. This was a huge gamble of eight million taels of silver. Once he lost, he would go bankrupt and lose all his money.
Return... Especially when he saw a piece of jade worth hundreds of thousands of taels of silver cut out of the opponent's stone, Xing Yajun became even more nervous... Knowing that Ye Mingzhu appeared, Xing Yajun's anxious heart slowly let go, and he jumped three times.
Feet high, waved his arms fiercely, haha... I won, this bet was won!!!!
Eight million taels of silver!
And that piece of jade worth hundreds of thousands of taels of silver...
I have developed, I have completely developed!!!
"I want this luminous pearl!" A rough shout came from the crowd of onlookers: "I bid one million taels of silver!"
What a guy! You can get one million taels of silver with just one mouthful. What a great courage! Someone recognized that the person bidding was a certain prince of Dakang.
"I bid 1.5 million taels of silver." Another prince from another country called out the price.
"I'll pay you two million taels of silver!"
"Three million taels of silver!"
"Four million taels of silver!"
"Five million taels of silver!"
…
"Twenty million taels of silver!"
In the blink of an eye, Ye Mingzhu was sold to a sky-high price of 20 million taels of silver, and the price is still soaring rapidly.
