The place where Old George brought Cheng Hao and others was a large entertainment venue.
This entertainment venue is divided into several floors, with a variety of entertainment options, from cinemas to casinos, from bars to billiard rooms.
There is also a huge area in the basement of the building where boxing matches can be held.
There are many matches going to be held here today. Of course, the most anticipated one is the one where newcomer Bart challenges Mad Bull.
Cheng Hao was also looking forward to this game, but at the same time he felt a little sympathetic towards Crazy Bull.
It's bad enough for a well-known boxer to lose after being challenged by a newcomer, but he also has to lose face on the stage.
Cheng Hao even wanted to remind Fengniu not to stuff things into his pants.
But this is impossible. First, he probably won't have the chance to talk to Mad Bull. Second... if he really said this to Mad Bull, Mad Bull might beat him up before he even faces Bart!
Cheng Hao didn't want to be beaten by a mad bull.
Old George didn't know what Cheng Hao was thinking. He was very familiar with this place and quickly took Cheng Hao and others to a small box in the basement.
The private rooms are located next to the stadium. They are elevated and require stairs to access. Below is where the drinks and food are sold. From such a private room, you can see the competition on the ring in the middle of the stadium, which is a great view.
But it's not very popular here, people still want to be closer to the boxers.
The noise here is very loud, and Old George speaks in a roar: "Damn it, those people took away all the electronic toys! Children can't play outside, they have to stay here!"
This place is actually not bad. Cheng Hao doesn't want Danny to see anything too dark, but when he thinks about how Danny has lived in a slum community since he was a child, gone hungry and lived in abandoned buildings, he feels that there is no need to be too strict.
As long as he protects Danny and doesn't let him get hurt, that's all that's fine.
"Those guys are going backwards and only know how to expand the casino!" Old George was still complaining. While complaining, he called the waiter and asked for some food.
The waiter brought the food quickly, a large plate of French fries, grilled pork tenderloin, tortillas, fried chicken wings, cookies and ice cream, and he also ordered milk and wine.
The box fee, food fee, and a certain percentage of taxes and tips, all added up to more than one hundred dollars.
Cheng Hao didn't care about these small amounts of money before, but he has been very poor recently, so after seeing Old George paying, he secretly sighed that Old George was really a rich man.
Lin Yuxun clenched the bag in his hand.
This time when he went out, Lin Yuxun took all their money with him.
They are not at home, and if you leave the money at home, it might be stolen. It is more convenient to carry it with you, and you can buy some things you want.
They had almost a thousand dollars, which he had always thought was a lot, but now, old George spent a hundred dollars with just a casual move.
Lin Yuxun felt a little ashamed.
Danny and Claude were completely unaware of this. They were currently sharing the food on the table, eating with great joy.
The taste of these foods was very ordinary, and the milk was not even fresh milk, but milk powder. However, they had never had the chance to eat such snacks before.
Danny took a sip of milk and a bite of biscuit, his eyes narrowed with joy. As for Claude, he only picked out the meat.
Seeing how he ate, Old George cursed, then ordered two more roasted turkey legs, giving one to him and one to Cheng Hao. "You two eat the turkey legs, and give the snacks to the kids!"
"Thank you, Old George." Cheng Hao said.
"Thank you, old George." Claude imitated Cheng Hao.
After they settled down, Old George left, saying he was going to visit some old friends.
After Old George left, Lin Yu asked Cheng Hao, "Cheng Hao, I saw someone betting here... Do you really think Bart will win?"
"I think Bart will win... It's a good idea to bet. How much do you plan to bet?" Cheng Hao asked Lin Yuxun.
"Five yuan." Lin Yuxun said. He planned to take out five yuan from the money he had won before and bet on Bart.
Winning is the best, but losing is not something you can't afford.
Cheng Hao said, "Five yuan is too little! Take out five hundred yuan and I'll help you place the bet."
"Five hundred yuan?" Lin Yuxun gasped. Their entire fortune was only one thousand yuan!
"It's okay. I didn't spend it all, did I?" Cheng Hao said, "And if it's 500 yuan, I can earn it back in a month."
Cheng Hao is now absolutely certain that this game is the one Bart wrote about in his autobiography.
In this case, Bart will definitely win.
Of course, there might be accidents, so he wouldn't put all his money into betting, just 500 yuan would be enough.
"Okay." Lin Yuxun gave Cheng Hao five hundred yuan.
He believed in Cheng Hao's vision.
Cheng Hao asked Lin Yuxun to stay in the box while he went out to find the betting point.
The betting method here is different from that of Old George.
As soon as Cheng Hao went over, he saw that several betting points had been set up for this game.
If Crazy Bull wins within three minutes, the odds are 1.2 to 1. That means if you bet ten yuan, and Crazy Bull wins within three minutes, the casino will give the bettor twelve yuan, including the principal and interest.
In addition, there are several options such as 1.5 to 1 for a Crazy Bull to win within three to six minutes, 2 to 1 for a Crazy Bull to win within six to nine minutes.
This boxing match is not formal and is not round-based. It ends when someone falls down. And now... the most people have bet on who can win in the three minutes of the mad bull fight.
However, with the highest odds of 10 to 1 on "Bart to win", basically no one bets on it.
Cheng Hao bet 500 yuan without hesitation, betting that Bart would win.
"You want to bet on Bart to win? Are you crazy?"
"That Bart is just an arrogant little guy!"
"Five hundred dollars isn't a lot, but kid, won't your daddy beat you for throwing money away like that?"
…
At the betting place, someone laughed at Cheng Hao.
Cheng Hao didn't say anything, but he felt that the people here were really rich.
Here, five hundred dollars is not a lot...
But it is true that the people here basically bet a few hundred, and there are even some who bet a thousand or two thousand. Compared with the people here, the customers in Old George's bar are all paupers.
Cheng Hao didn't say much to them. He placed his bet and left. After walking for a while, he turned back and looked at the place where he placed the bet.
The casino is really amazing and will never suffer a loss. They have provided so many betting options that the dealer will not lose in the end no matter what happens.
When Cheng Hao came back from placing his bet, he saw Old George.
Old George saw him and shouted, "Where have you been? Get ready! Your game is about to begin!"
"Right away!" Cheng Hao handed the betting receipt to Lin Yuxun, then grabbed the turkey leg and ate the rest.
Old George looked at him dissatisfiedly. "You know we're going to be weighed in later? You'll be competing against people of similar weight to you! God, you're crazy, eating at a time like this!"
Cheng Hao silently swallowed the last bite of meat.
He told Claude not to go out, and asked Lin Yuxun to keep an eye on Danny, and then left with Old George.
Old George sent Cheng Hao to where the boxers were and said, "You stay here! I believe you can handle things, so I'm leaving first. Goodbye!"
After saying that, Old George just left.
Cheng Hao knew that he was worried about Claude and the others, so he waved his hand and said, "Goodbye! Old George!"
But the boxers who were with Cheng Hao were surprised by Old George's behavior: "Hey, man, is that your agent?"
Cheng Hao said: "Yes, that's my agent."
"He actually left you here and left..." The man looked at Cheng Hao with sympathy.
"I can handle it myself." Cheng Hao smiled, but in reality, he didn't need to handle anything. Soon, a black man with a notebook and a pen came over. As soon as he arrived, he said to Cheng Hao, "It's you, the only yellow man. Did Old George bring you here? He asked me to keep an eye on you! Come here quickly!"
"Thank you!" Cheng Hao thanked him and walked over obediently.
Then he was taken to be weighed.
"One hundred and forty pounds!" said the person on the scale, and then Cheng Hao was assigned an opponent. Not only that, he would soon be on stage to compete.
These little guys will finish the game before Bart and Mad Bull.
Cheng Hao began to warm up, observing the people around him and his opponent.
There were not many boxers this time, only about a dozen in total, and his opponent was a black man about 1.7 meters tall.
The black man looked very strong, but Cheng Hao didn't feel scared at all.
Claude is not tall, only about 1.7 meters, but he weighs 200 pounds.
After seeing the 200-pound Claude, Cheng Hao felt that this man of the same height but only about 140 pounds was a little underwhelming.
You know, his previous opponents in Old George's bar were basically all over 150 pounds, and there were quite a few who weighed 170 or 180 pounds.
He was indeed beaten badly by Carpenter in his fight with Carpenter, but Carpenter weighed over 200 pounds!
Cheng Hao just focused on adjusting his own state.
His opponent didn't speak to him either and was also adjusting his state.
While Cheng Hao was making preparations, on the other side, Old George already knew who his opponent was. His friend asked a waiter to run over and tell him.
After receiving the news, Old George nodded and said nothing more.
Lin Yuxun asked, "Cheng Hao is going to compete. Can I place a bet? I want to bet on him to win."
Old George glanced at Lin Yuxun and said, "Don't even think about it. The casino won't even open a game for such a small-time player."
Lin Yuxun had no choice but to give up, but he felt a little uneasy.
Old George said, "Cheng Hao will be fine. Drink some milk."
Lin Yuxun took a sip of milk.
Old George said again: "Eat something more!"
"Thank you." Lin Yuxun thanked him and took a French fry and dipped it in ketchup.
He wasn't very hungry, so he didn't eat much of the food on the table.
Cheng Hao will definitely want to eat after the fight, so let’s save these foods for Cheng Hao.
Old George stopped talking and looked towards the ring with anticipation on his face.
However, the first to appear was not Cheng Hao, but another pair of boxers.
Seeing this, Old George began to explain to Claude. Claude responded with "hmm", and it was unclear whether he understood it or not.
Finally, Cheng Hao appeared.
