Chapter 130 Horse Racing (1)

Li Mu pretended to be stupid and said, "I don't know what uncle wants to repay you?"

"Good!" Cheng Yaojin smiled and said, "Mr. Xu Mao, your adopted son is not like you, he is much more enjoyable than you." After that, he looked at Li Mu again and said, "That winery..."

"No!" Li Mu vetoed before Cheng Yaojin finished speaking. Li Ji immediately showed a look of relief. Cheng Yaojin became angry and said, "You ask me what I want, but I won't give it to me after I say it? I can't make fun of me, don't forget that I have helped you!"

Li Mu said: "Your kid keeps in mind the help of my uncle, but a gentleman will fulfill his words. I said that the wine business is a cooperation between me and Siwen. I would rather not do it, no one can interfere. Even the Supreme Emperor, I refused. Apart from the business of wine, what else my uncle wants, the boy will promise."

Cheng Yaojin had no choice but to say, "I don't care, but I know how much money your winery earns a year, more than 100,000 yuan a year. If you don't let me participate, then you can think of a deal with similar profits for me."

Li Ji heard this and said, "Old man, I remember that day Li Mu took the initiative to say that he could cooperate with you in other businesses. You said that he wanted to taste his ability before talking about it. Why, now you have tasted it?"

"What do you have to do with you? This is a matter between me and Li Mu. Don't just point fingers at everything because you are his foster father. I think you are not suitable to be his foster father. I am the only one who is suitable for you. Li Mu, kowtow three times and I will be your foster father. I don't want him anymore!"

"The old man has some rules!"

"Mr. Xu Mao, did you know me Cheng Yaojin on the first day? When did I have any rules!"

Li Mu was so amused and cried, and quickly advised: "Uncle is joking, how can you recognize the adoptive father casually? Thanks to my uncle's favor, the boy has other ideas. There is really no suitable person in this business except for uncle. If the uncle is willing, the boy will tell you this idea. Uncle, you can do it yourself, and you don't want any of the kids."

"There are such good things?" Cheng Yaojin looked at Li Mu for a moment, his eyes turned, and said, "No! You are a treacherous boy, you are like a ghost. There must be something wrong with saying this. If you don't occupy the share, you can do it like Xu Maogong. If you come up with ideas, you can manage it. I will contribute 55% of the money, and I will account for 45%. As long as you can guarantee a profit of 100,000 yuan a year, you can do whatever you want!"

Li Mu smiled bitterly and said, "Uncle, you have a kind heart. I will give you the idea and you can do it yourself. Why bother me?"

"I can't believe you. Besides, I don't understand your ideas. If I mess up, who will give me money? You have to do it. I want people to give them to others, land, and capital, you have to participate and make money!"

Li Ji couldn't bear to listen and said, "You old man still want to be shameless? Do I owe you my adopted son? I can't give you ideas for nothing. I have to bring him with me. What's your intention!"

"What do you know? I am helping him! With me here, whoever wants to touch him must think twice? Do you want to rely on your adopted father, the cowardly adopted father, and Tang Jian's stepfather? This time something happened, I didn't see you two come forward!"

"That's because there's no need!"

"Fuck, it's just a coward!"

Li Mu was so angry that he quickly said, "Two, stop arguing, I agree. Can we take a rest and talk about the important things?"

"explain!"

Li Mu asked the maid to remove the remaining soup and put the pen on the table. Li Mu picked up the pen, drew a circle on the paper, and then drew a staircase around him. Soon, a simple horse farm diagram came out.

Cheng Yaojin couldn't understand it, so he looked at Li Ji, but Li Ji had never seen it before, and asked, "What is this?"

"This is called a horse farm!"

"Rattlefield?" Cheng Yaojin frowned and said, "Why should we build a city around the Racefield?"

"This is not a city, this is a stand." Li Mu said: "My idea is called 'horse racing'."

"Horse racing?" Cheng Yaojin frowned and said, "What's the rare thing about horse racing? There are often horse racing in the army, so can you make money?"

"Uncle, don't worry, listen carefully to my nephew." Li Mu explained: "Of course, the horse racing in the army cannot make money. But the horse racing I mentioned can make money."

"First of all, we need a piece of land to build a horse farm like this. Then we issue an announcement to select the best horse in Chang'an City, with the first prize of 500 stags, the second prize of 300 stags, and the third prize of 100 stags..."

"This is almost a thousand guan! Why did I spend so much money to hold such a competition!"

Li Ji said impatiently: "You old man, if you don't want to do it, don't bother me. If you give you ideas and always interrupt them, it's annoying!"

Cheng Yaojin opened his mouth to refute, looked at Li Mu, swallowed it back, and said, "Continue."

Li Mu continued: "The so-called reward must be a brave man. With nearly a thousand coin of bounty, there will inevitably be many people who sign up. Please think about it, there are only a few people with horses, and what is the identity of people with good horses?"

Li Ji thought for a while and said, "Aristocratic families, noble children."

"By the way! They are the nobles." Li Mu said: "Why do you pay so much bounty just to attract them? If you pay less and dozens of stakes, they won't take them seriously, but 500 stakes are different. They already have horses at home, but they just participate in a competition. If you win, you can get 500 stakes, why not?"

"It's extreme, it's extreme!" Cheng Yaojin nodded and said, "Even if I hear this news, I can't help but want to participate. But I haven't understood where the money comes from? I can't lose money by myself, right?"

"Someone paid the money." Li Mu narrowed his eyes and said, "Can we start a bet?"

"Start a bet? What to bet?"

"Betting on the ranking!" Li Mu took out all the horse racing rules he knew in his previous life and said, "We can set a betting point and divide it into different ways of playing. As long as the calculation is done properly, we will definitely make a profit without losing money."

Li Ji said cautiously: "When it comes to gambling, there are wins and losses. How can you make a steady profit without losing?"

"This has to be calculated." Li Mu picked up the pen and wrote on the paper. Although his words were unsatisfactory, fortunately, Li Ji and Cheng Yaojin were both generals and did not pick him up on his fault: "We can set different ways of playing so that the participants can place bets. For example, he can guess the foal that runs first in the end, or guess which foal he is optimistic about finally runs to. He can also bets and guess which foal that won the last three foals. If the order is correct, the bonus will be more."

"Bonus of different multiples corresponds to different multiples, depending on the difficulty level. This is like guessing the top scorer in the imperial examination. Before the imperial examination, students had their own talents and seemed to be able to win, but after the results were released, some of them won and some of them won. In the end, no one could figure out who could win. As long as they operate, they would definitely make a profit without losing."
