Chapter 909: The Prince of the Duke's Mansion vs. the Black Lotus Daughter 51
A bunch of friends surrounded Yun Ye and joked with him. Yun Ye was very thick-skinned and very proud, "You know nothing! You are all old bachelors. When you get married, you will know how good your wife is."
Chu Feiyi yelled, "You are the old bachelor! I am handsome and elegant, and I don't know how many girls want to have fun with me! I have never seen anything like this before, Prince Yun has really changed his personality, and I don't know who skipped the flower viewing banquet and dragged me out to get drunk and stay out all night!"
Yun Ye punched Chu Feiyi. "What's the point of talking about the old things? I don't know who was cut off from money by his own father and had to go to school obediently. He even begged me to lend money to redeem him. If the old marquis knew about it..."
Chu Feiyi became obedient instantly. Yun Ye used this trivial matter to threaten him every now and then, and it would never end!
"Are you interesting? I've already paid you back. If you bring it up again, I'll end our relationship!"
Yun Ye looked at him with disdain, "If you want to break up, then break up. Don't come to me and cry if you lose the horse race. I'll let you go if you can't afford to lose!"
Ten horses are already ready at the starting line. Each one is very strong. They snort and mark their steps on the spot, waiting for the trainer's order to rush to the finish line.
Yun Ye naturally occupied the highest and best viewing platform, with special servants serving him and holding lottery tickets for the young master to choose. As long as he paid the money, the lottery tickets would be delivered to him.
There is a ticket purchasing point in the southeast, northwest, and northeast of the racecourse. As long as you spend one or two taels of silver and buy your favorite horse, you can enter. The starting amount is one or two taels and there is no upper limit. The racecourse is crowded and very lively.
Yun Ye waved his hand and bought a thousand taels, "It's Ji Feng, he won last time, let's bet on him again this time!"
The servant of the horse farm handed over a golden lottery ticket with Ji Feng's name engraved on it and his image embossed on it, which was very exquisite.
Ji Yunhuan was wrapped in a cloak, with a broad-shouldered and narrow-sleeved Hu suit underneath, which was just right for riding. She stared at the horses on the field with shining eyes and said with a smile, "I want to bet on the white one, it's the best looking!"
The servant was very respectful, "How much do you want to bet, Madam?"
Ji Yunhuan hesitated and said, "One hundred taels, the odds are quite high. What if I win?"
Yun Ye smiled and patted Ji Yunhuan's head, saying helplessly: "I really admire you. I don't need your money, so why are you still so stingy? Bet one thousand taels, and pay from this prince's account. If you win, it's yours, and if you lose, it's mine. Are you satisfied?"
Ji Yunhuan muttered quietly, "One hundred taels is a lot! I didn't even make a hundred taels a year before. Oh, I just think Shuanglu looks good, but it shouldn't be in the top three, right? Betting a thousand is a big loss!"
"That one thousand taels is not a big deal. Just as long as you like it, when we're done, I'll have them bring Shuanglu over for you to ride on."
Ji Yunhuan held the golden lottery ticket and smiled, "Great! This one is made of pure gold, it looks really nice!"
Chu Feiyi also bet on Ji Feng and generously paid three thousand taels. He didn't believe that he would lose money if he followed Yun Ye in betting.
Yun Ye was really trapped in this. He had seen this kind of trick of pretending to be gentle and pitiful many times. This little concubine's daughter didn't seem to have much ability, but Yun Ye was ignorant and fell for it. He spoiled her like a spoiled child.
At the end of the game, a huge flag was raised at the racecourse. The flag representing Gale was only in second place. The one in first place was a dark horse, and it was its first time to enter the racecourse.
Ji Feng is very popular, many people bet on it, and the odds are not high. Unless you come in first, the one thousand taels will be a pure loss.
Shuanglu did well, coming in third place and actually making a small profit of a few hundred taels.
Ji Yunhuan was very happy, holding the white silver and smiling, "I have money today, please go to the Zhenxiu Restaurant, order whatever you want!"
Yun Ye pinched the tip of Ji Yunhuan's nose and smiled dotingly, "Okay, okay, then I will definitely eat more, you little money-grubber."
There was a wailing sound in the stands. Most of them had followed Yun Ye in betting and lost all their money.
Chu Feiyi lost three thousand taels, and he started to scold Yun Ye, "There must be something fishy going on! Everyone knows that you own this horse farm, and whoever you want to win will win. You would do anything to please your wife!"
"I'm going to be starving this month. Three thousand taels! I trusted you so much. You're setting a trap for me to fall into!"
Yun Ye's academic knowledge was average, but his martial arts skills were quite strong. He immediately pressed Chu Feiyi against the fence and twisted his hands behind his back, causing Chu Feiyi to scream in pain.
Yun Ye mercifully let go of his hand, "What are you yelling about? You have no evidence. Don't talk nonsense! I only get a portion of the profits from Jinghua Horse Farm. Since I joined Jinghua Horse Farm, everyone in the capital knows that Jinghua Horse Farm is the most open and transparent, and has a good reputation."
"The odds are clearly written. I lost a thousand taels of silver. It was real money. The accounts were also calculated very clearly. This prince hates shady dealings the most. Gambling is all about excitement. It's boring if there's shady dealings."
Chu Feiyi rubbed his wrist and wailed, "I don't care. I have no money anyway. Can you lend me some more for emergencies? You can't let me go without meat for a month, right?"
Yun Ye was speechless, "You've found someone new so soon? I spent a fortune to redeem Yan Shuangfei, and I thought you loved her very much."
Chu Feiyi muttered, "I bought the house on Feiniao Street. You can't keep renting a house if you follow me, right? I was short of money to begin with, so I was thinking of making a comeback from you. Now I've lost everything. I don't care, you have to lend me money!"
"If I don't bring some gold and silver jewelry from Jinguang Pavilion, Fei'er will be unhappy. After all, I am a nobleman from a marquisate, how can I lose face in front of a woman!"
Yun Ye generously lent Chu Feiyi one thousand taels. The Ningyuan Marquis's Mansion was very wealthy, and the Marquis's wife would also support her young son, so there was no need to worry that Chu Feiyi would not have the money to repay.
Chu Feiyi wanted to place another bet to make up for his losses, but Yun Ye said one word and the entire racecourse did not allow Chu Feiyi to place any bets. Chu Feiyi could only worry. When he saw that the horse he chose came in first place, he scratched his head and felt very upset.
Yun Ye took Ji Yunhuan to play a few more times, with some wins and some losses. Ji Yunhuan saw through the trick and lost interest in betting.
"If you calculate carefully, no matter who wins or loses, the dealer will make money. You are the dealer, so why should we waste money? In the long run, gamblers will lose."
"This horse farm is a really good business with huge returns. The most profitable thing is horse betting. Money comes to you as soon as you start a game. You can make money here and get information. They say that the prince is a playboy, but I think you are the real smart guy."
Yun Ye laughed loudly, "Huan'er still understands me! No matter how I explain to my father, he doesn't believe that I am doing a serious job, and doesn't believe that I can make money! He only knows how to fight, and other than that, he will teach me a lesson!"
"In the early days, I really liked gambling. I would stay at the gambling table for days and nights. It was so exciting! Later, I figured out that the dealer made the most money, so why didn't I become the dealer myself?"
"Jinghua Horse Farm set up a trap to cheat me out of my money. Am I the kind of person who would suffer a loss? I might as well wipe them out. Now that Jinghua Horse Farm has a new owner, I can also get a piece of the pie. That would be fun."
