Chapter 943 Forced to fight (seeking a monthly ticket)
For anyone to say this, I'm afraid it would be normal in the eyes of others. After all, there are very few people in the world who can personally spend 50,000 yuan. However, if these words come from Li Qi's mouth, then there is only one result.
, which is to cause public outrage.
Gao Qiu was dumbfounded and said in disbelief: "You---what did you just say?"
"No money!" Li Qi scratched his head and said.
Hong Bajin couldn't stand it anymore and whispered: "If you don't have money, even the gods won't believe it."
Although his voice was low enough, everyone in the hall was stunned by Li Qi's words and was very quiet, so everyone could hear him clearly.
"Nonsense!"
Gao Qiu suddenly slammed the table and said to Li Qi: "Are you embarrassed to say that you have no money?"
Li Qi said blankly: "Captain, why are you so embarrassed? I just told the truth."
"you---."
Gao Qiu was so angry that Li Qi was speechless. He and Li Qi had many business cooperations, and both parties knew each other well. How could he not know how much money Li Qi had?
Zhao Huan stood up again to smooth things over and said, "Li Qi, you don't want to gamble, so you made this excuse."
"It doesn't make sense."
Gao Qiu shouted angrily: "Those brown-haired monkeys are riding on our heads. If no one dares to challenge them, wouldn't it mean that we are telling others that we have no one in the Song Dynasty?"
Sweat! Some people are not so squandering. Li Qi said depressedly: "Everyone, this is really not an excuse. I admit that with the strength of Zuixianju Group, it is not impossible to get these 50,000 yuan. But we Zuixianju
The Ju Group is no better than the Hong family and the Zhou family. They are all family businesses. The money is in their own hands, but we are a joint-stock system. I am not the one who has the final say. We have to hold meetings to discuss, and so much has been misappropriated.
Money cannot be solved overnight, and I will definitely not be able to raise so much money tomorrow night."
Bai Shizhong stood up quickly and said: "Li Qi is right. Although I have never done business, I have heard from my daughter that it is really troublesome for Zuixianju Group to get money."
Gao Qiu said: "Right Minister, please stop talking to your virtuous son-in-law. Our Taiwei Mansion does a lot of business with him. How can I not know how capable he is? As long as he wants to, he will definitely be able to do it."
arrive."
It seems that I am like a cash machine in front of Brother Qiu. Li Qi smiled and said: "Taiwei, if the other party does this, the court will not sit idly by and ignore it. They should send someone to do it."
Zhao Huan coughed lightly and said: "Actually, my father was very angry when he found out about this. In addition, the other party also invited me, so my father sent me to attend, and to accompany foreign guests. This book is also from Honglu Temple.
That’s where the responsibility lies.”
Li Qidao: "Isn't that enough?" He thought to himself, I sent you there just to give you money.
Bai Shizhong said: "But there are two people on the other side."
Li Qi immediately said: "Isn't there another Taiwei?"
This kid reacted so quickly. Gao Qiu looked embarrassed and said: "How can I live well?" In fact, he just couldn't swallow this breath, but he didn't want to show up. After all, it was too high-profile. As an official, he
, gambling with so much money, the impact is really bad, and the court is still fighting corruption and promoting integrity recently. Although Li Qi is also an official, he is different. He is making money every day in Zuixianju Group, and everyone knows that,
So no matter how much money he spends, no one will say anything.
Damn it! You were the one who screamed the most fiercely just now. I bet you were louder than thunder but little raindrops! Li Qi asked in surprise: "Why is that?"
Zhao Huan said: "The Taiwei holds an important position. It would be inappropriate for him to come forward. Therefore, we plan to find a wealthy businessman from the private sector to come forward, so that those foreign envoys can see the strength of our Song Dynasty businessmen."
"What His Highness said makes perfect sense." Li Qi nodded seriously and immediately added, "Fortunately, I also hold an important position."
Shameless!
Everyone rolled their eyes.
Zhao Huan coughed lightly and said: "Li Qi, we have heard a little bit about the ins and outs of this matter. Since it happened because of you, you are naturally responsible. And who among you in Zuixianju knows it? You are also half a businessman.
, and you are also the leader of my businessmen in the Song Dynasty, so it is most suitable for you to take the lead."
"But---."
Gao Qiu said angrily: "If you can't come up with so much money for the time being, Bajin and I will lend it to you." In fact, he could still take out fifty thousand guan casually, but he didn't want to be too showy, so
Only then did he drag Hong Bajin into the water.
Sweating! Isn’t this just trying to get on the shelf? Li Qi frowned and said, “Uncle Bajin can also be on the shelf!”
Hong Bajin said depressedly: "To be honest, I wanted to try it at first, but as you know, all my money has been invested in Jiangnan and Northwest China, and I really can't afford so much money at the moment."
Excuse, this excuse is too bad. Li Qi just wanted to say, "I'll just lend it to you." But Gao Qiu didn't give him this chance, and said impatiently, "Li Qi, don't shirk it. This is how it's settled."
Come on." He knew that Li Qi had created the poker, and Hong Bajin was no match for Li Qi, so he believed in Li Qi more.
MD. Since you have discussed it a long time ago, why did you use a consultative tone to tell me just now? Couldn't you just go straight to the imperial edict? What a waste of everyone's time. After all, Li Qi knew that it was
I couldn't change it anymore, so I had no choice but to nod and agree, saying: "That---well, I'll give it a try."
After the matter was settled, Gao Qiu and others left.
After Gao Qiu and others left, Zhao Huan took advantage of Li Qi to send him out and pulled him aside and said, "Li Qi, are you sure you can win?"
Li Qi smiled bitterly and said: "If I had been sure, I would have agreed right away. I would also like to make so much money, but this kind of gambling relies on luck."
Zhao Huan frowned and said, "It would be so embarrassing if we lost."
Li Qi sighed: "Who said it wasn't the case? That's why I didn't want to go just now. This is obviously the other party taking advantage."
Zhao Huan nodded and said, "I'm not afraid to tell you that I know nothing about this aspect. I'm afraid it will hold you back."
There is some truth in what he said, given his character. Not only would he be beaten to death, but I would also have to be distracted to take care of him. Li Qi secretly frowned and said: "But your highness, you are performing your duties. You must
You have to be there."
Zhao Huan shook his head helplessly and said, "Yes! So --- Li Qi, this time it all depends on you."
Li Qi made a sound and said incomprehensibly: "No, Your Highness, how can I help you with this matter? Now I'm just trying to catch up."
Zhao Huan patted him on the shoulder and said, "You can do it. I have full confidence in you. Okay, I'll take my leave now." After he said that, he hurried away.
"Hey, Your Highness, I ---" Li Qi was about to say that he was really not sure, but Zhao Huan ran away faster than anyone else and disappeared in a flash. Li Qi was so angry that he rolled his eyes and said: "Boss, this is crazy
He is really a leader! He is so damn responsible. It seems that this trip will be a disaster!"
...
On the evening of the second day, I saw a lot of traffic and lights on the Jinshui River. The lights were bright. It seemed that the Hong family was fully prepared. The business of the food street and bar also ushered in a peak period. Naturally, these guests came here.
I hope to know the latest news about this gambling game as soon as possible.
Since Hongwan Gambling House opened, many wealthy businessmen have come on board to gamble heavily, but no one has ever spent ten thousand dollars. And the minimum amount involved in this gambling game will reach two hundred thousand dollars. How can it not cause enough sensation?
The reputation of Byzantium has been completely established in the capital. Now when the people in the capital talk about the feast, Byzantium all secretly smacks their tongues. This is too domineering, too rich, and a real rich man!
Because there were so many people, and the prince was involved, the imperial court specially sent many guards to guard the gambling boat. Except for invited guests, no one was allowed to approach the gambling boat, and even the river was blocked.
Deadly.
At this point, in order to help Hongwan Casino attract more customers, Li Qi suggested to Hong Bajin that he set up some kind of live broadcast and build a big screen in the casino to broadcast the situation inside the casino.
Hong Bajin also accepted Li Qi's suggestion. At this time, in the center of the casino hall, there was a huge multi-oval wooden board with many iron hooks on it. There was also a pile of wooden playing cards on the side of the wooden board.
About a foot away, four other people were waiting with special forks.
As soon as this big screen came out, it really attracted a lot of customers.
After a while, a long motorcade came over. The motorcade stopped directly in the open space in front of the gambling house. Zhao Huan, dressed in a purple brocade robe, was seen walking out of a carriage at the front, with guardians standing beside him.
Geng Nanzhong and Li Gang were very impressive. Coming out of the next few carriages were a group of blond and brown-haired foreigners, all of them tall and mighty. When they saw so many people coming to watch, they had a hint of pride in their mouths.
The envoys from various countries also got off the carriage one after another. However, they were short of money and only came to watch the battle.
The people who were watching all saluted Zhao Huan.
But this is just the beginning. Next, Cai Sui, Gao Qiu, Li Bangyan, Tong Guan, Bai Shizhong and other heavyweight guests will all show up. The momentum is very huge, and it will definitely be a bloody storm later.
The audience can already feel their blood boiling.
However, after a long time, there is still a protagonist who has not arrived. This person is Li Qi, which makes the audience standing outside on a snowy day look through the eyes.
After a while, Li Qi arrived late. He had just played with his son and almost forgot about the time. Fortunately, Mrs. Bai came to remind him. Compared with the other guests, Li Qi was low-key enough.
The carriage, even with Ma Qiao and Qin Hui, looked very shabby. In fact, he didn't want to, but he was in a hurry.
"The economic envoy (Master Li) is here."
When the audience saw Li Qi, they were very excited.
Wow! There are so many people! Li Qi just got off the carriage and saw people standing on both sides of the casino. He was startled and secretly regretted it. It's a pity, it's a pity. In this situation, if there is an extended Lincoln,
It would be so perfect. I could imitate Brother Gao Jin and get a band to accompany him. How impressive it would be. Alas! I didn’t even remember to wear the jersey. What a mistake. However, the most damning thing is
This guy Hong Bajin didn't even prepare for the red carpet. Damn, he's so stingy.
It doesn’t matter if you don’t have a shirt, but you can imitate the momentum. It doesn’t matter if you don’t have music. Can you hum by yourself? With a confident smile on his face, Li Qi hummed the tune of the God of Gamblers’ appearance with his nose. He raised his hand and waved to everyone, He was very coquettish, his steps were very slow, and he whispered: "Xiao Qin, walk slower, walk slower."
Qin Hui didn't understand why, but the master slowed down, so naturally he had to slow down as he followed. It could be said that he was staring at Li Qi's footsteps. He thought to himself, this is too slow. When will he be able to get on the boat? ah!
But Li Qi didn't care at all. He wasn't going to bed anyway, so why was he in such a hurry? He accepted the cheers from the audience calmly and whispered: "Xiao Qin, look at how the master is dressed today, and is his hair messy? "
Qin Hui was stunned for a moment, looked at it subconsciously, and thought to himself, it's very ordinary! But he said: "Very---very good."
"The economy will win..."
The voices of the audience gradually became uniform, and the shouts were so exciting!
Li Qi heard that his vanity was greatly satisfied. He had a good time with his gambling addiction and satisfied his childhood fantasy. Although there were some regrets, regrets are perfect. He thought to himself, they shouted so neatly, Uncle Bajin didn’t ask me to cheer him up specifically. He was so polite.
"Economic Envoy, you must win today! You must bring glory to us merchants of the Song Dynasty."
"Yes! Those country bumpkins are so bullying, isn't it just 50,000 yuan? For Master Li, it's just a drop in the bucket. I really don't know how high the sky is."
"Yes, yes, economic officer, you can't lose. Our whole family is counting on you. I placed a heavy bet on you to win."
"I also bought you to win."
"Master Li, you must not listen to them. They are trying to harm you. You can't win against anyone, right? This is not the way to be a minister."
"Stop talking nonsense, did you buy Prince Win?"
"So what?"
"What's going on? I'll cut you off like a bird."
"Brother Ma, you must protect Master Li and don't let him be harmed by traitors."
.......
Damn it! What's going on? The tone has changed so quickly. You bought the prince to win, which has nothing to do with me! Although my money is borrowed, it is not money, isn't it? It is really unreasonable, you lose everything, what? Look in your eyes, even if you buy the prince, you won’t buy me, I deserve it! Li Qi listened to them and the more they said, the more outrageous they became. They even showed the way of being a minister, and most of the people cheering for him were not because of his personal charm, but because of his personal charm. Because they had placed a heavy bet on him to win, the contrast from the beginning was too great and hurt his self-esteem. As a result, the smile on his face gradually became stiff with the cold weather.
How embarrassing.
Suddenly, a clear voice sounded not far to the left, "Can the economic envoy please bring me with you?"
The voice was not loud, but because it sounded better, Li Qi's keen hearing still heard it clearly. He turned around and saw a handsome young man standing not far away. It was not Zhao Jingyan. He immediately waved his hand and ordered the guards to let Zhao Jingyan in. .The guards received the order and immediately let Zhao Jingyan in.
"Thank you, thank you very much."
Zhao Jingyan came to Li Qi's side, cupped her hands and smiled.
Li Qi whispered: "I didn't expect you to be interested in this?"
Zhao Jingyan smiled softly, unknowingly revealing a row of white teeth that could compete with Bai Xue, and said: "I don't have much interest in gambling, but you also know that I am a poor and vulgar person, and I have never I’ve seen so much money, so I wanted to come and see the world.”
Sweat! It turns out that there is a person in this world who is better at pretending to be poor than me. There is really a mountain higher than the other. Li Qi secretly sighed and said: "Then you will be disappointed, because there is no gambling here with copper coins.
It’s a bargaining chip.”
Zhao Jingyan smiled and said: "That's okay, as long as you and my brother, the prince, don't disappoint people."
Li Qi smiled bitterly and said: "Don't put pressure on me. To be honest, I can't bear it anymore. Please."
"please."
