Yu Qian finally returned home, not back to the capital, but back to Nanjing first.

Bai Minghe had been having enough fun on the beach, but he actually taught Sun Yuanjun and others to swim. This was really amazing. But after living by the beach for a long time, he was not as good as home. Yu Qian heard that Bai Minghe had run back to Nanjing, and he also planned to go back to Nanjing first and then to Beijing.

Takaya, who was walking back from Kumamoto Port, met Yu Qian's fleet at the sea, and the two of them were naturally a merged fleet.

"You are not a good friend!" Yu Qian laughed and scolded as soon as he saw Gao Gu.

Gao Gu was also a little embarrassed: "It is hard to refuse this kind of affection, so I have to accept it. But what else can I do, the old man who is about to fall into the country? After I go home, I will naturally report it. If I give it back, my nephews in the family will not treat them badly." Gao Gu explained awkwardly.

Yu Qian waved his hand and signaled the girls of the Japanese nobles to retreat first.

These are all those who defeated Daming, or who were exterminated Daming's family, who understand Chinese language.

Gao Gu did not avoid what they said, and he was pitiful to these people. Yu Qian also understood, so he made a joke and didn't say much.

The two sat down, and Yu Qian said first: "The Japanese people's kindness is because we have a high position and are powerful, but they dare not talk to Bai Minghe like this. Because Bai Minghe does not eat this trick, Bai Minghe dares to put down his face and say no, but we are hindered from the face. I mentioned the words this time, and I don't know if there will be any bad things."

"It's just that the Japanese want their goods to be purchased. The fine products of Arita Shao can still be seen, and the pricing matters are not something we can decide. There are not many people under Baiminghe who are cold-faced. They only recognize money but not people."

Yu Qian mentioned a lot of words, including the porcelain burned by Mino. Japanese paper called Waka Paper.

Yu Qian took out another pen: "This is the pen they made, called the Aoki Pen, which was improved by the Song Dynasty craftsmanship. It can be compared with the first-class pen in the Ming Dynasty. They hope to get the price of fifty pens per stone rice for this pen, and the process is complicated and takes a very long time."

"It's worth it, I guess, this money can be worth one cent and even higher in the Ming Dynasty." Gao Gu commented.

Yu Qian also said: "The people on my boat are more expensive than yours. This is just fox hair. rabbit hair costs about one cent."

At present, Gao Gu used this brush and Japanese paper to write a pair of characters. After writing it, he repeatedly praised: "It has strong ink absorption and smooth writing. It is a top-notch brush. With the white-famous crane's temperament, he will purchase a large amount of money to stimulate the craftsmen of the Ming Dynasty and pursue higher and better paper and pens. If he is compared by the Japanese, the papermakers and pen craftsmen of the Ming Dynasty will probably lose all their faces!"

Takaya's words are correct. The brush was passed down from China to Japan.

The Japanese people's pen making and paper making surpassed China, and the craftsmen of the Ming Dynasty still have a good reputation.

When he arrived at the Nanjing Wharf, Gao Gu said to Qian: "Sir Yu, you are from Hangzhou, you have been accustomed to being by the water since you were a child. I have been used to taking boats these days. There is also a unique scenery overseas."

Yu Qian responded with a smile: "I have become accustomed to life at sea, but I don't know if I will go further."

After getting off the boat, Yu Qian asked the officer on duty at the wharf: "Where is the white-famous crane now?"

"Reply to your words. Lord Bai is now in Xuanwu Lake. This afternoon is the day when Xuanwu Lake is opened." The officer said this and hesitated for a moment, but continued: "Today there is an important guest in Xuanwu Lake, which is Yan Shenggong!"

"This..." Gao Gu was a little surprised. This was invited by Bai Minghe. Or did he come by himself.

In fact, it was the white-famous crane who invited the person.

Bai Minghe also had some thoughts. The reason given was that the Japanese were also a student-minded person, hoping to build a Confucius Temple on the Japanese Island and then set up a school. The money was not a problem, but it needed a highly respected lecturer. This invited Yan Sheng Gong, and there were many pits in this world that could not be avoided.

Even if Hu Yi told Yan Shenggong that this must be some conspiracy of Bai Minghe.

However, Yan Shenggong could not refuse Bai Minghe's request, and even decided to go to the Japanese island to give a lecture for one year. With his age, even if he couldn't support his return to the Ming Dynasty, he would not hesitate to bury the Japanese island. He also believed that it was God's will.

The decisive Yan Shenggong could not persuade anyone, so Hu Yi cursed Bai Minghe and completely lost his former demeanor.

On this day, the Baiming He held a feast for Yanshenggong and announced the official opening of Xuanwu Lake.

Nine piers have been set up around the island, Cuidao, Sakura Island, and Sanshima. Each pier has handwritten books by famous artists, four big characters in heaven and earth. The nine piers and nine gates are named after nine.

The four corner towers of Sakurajima are named after the four virtues of filial piety, loyalty, trustworthiness and fraternity.

The super tall building in the middle is called Tingyue Tower.

The white-named crane and Yan Shenggong were sitting on the highest platform on this building. "Why would the emperor be the bell ringing if you hold the imperial ceremony today?"

"I won't give in!" Yan Shenggong is not the kind of person who studies hard. He can see more clearly than others when he lives to this age. He knows what he is preparing to do on the island without anyone explaining it. He knows what he knows about this place, but it's boring if he says something out.

On the four corners of the building, many dignitaries sit on the upper two floors, ordinary wealthy businessmen sit on the middle two floors, and ordinary people are on the lower ones.

The direction around the island is full of flat glass that is one foot square, and this luxury alone is far beyond the imagination of ordinary people. In many ordinary tea shops and restaurants around the island, many ordinary people are holding one or a few pieces of paper in their hands, staring nervously at the bushes, and you can see the gaps on the runway around the island.

After a bell, a musket sounded from the north of the island.

Eighteen horses rushed out under the knight's control. Someone from the corner tower stood up and screamed.

Just then, Yu Qian and Takaya's ship had already arrived at the pier on the northeast side of Sakura Island. They heard gunshots and cheers from thousands of people, and even looked at the horses flying on the runway inside the island.

"The first scene, 9814." The copper speaker, which was made by the white crane on the island, was hard-working and primitively generated electricity by the human legs and could barely get up and amplify the sound.

"What's the 9814th?" Yu Qian asked immediately after getting off the boat.

"This is a game of the horse farm. It is a race meeting every ten days, with nine games each time. If you guess the first four players in each game, you can get a reward of 100 ci. If you guess the first three, you can get a fifty times, and if you guess the first three, you can guess the first one twenty times. According to the foot strength of each horse and the riding skills of the knight, there are odds corrections. If you win the first four players in two consecutive games, the odds are 300 times, and if you win the first four players in three games, the odds are 700 times..."

A calculation table that made Yu Qian's scalp numb.

Bai Minghe played a variety of betting on horse racing. The top four of the most powerful games won all the best, and they earned 100 taels of silver per cent. This is the odds of 100,000 times, and there are also set tickets, large and small tickets, consecutive tickets, passes, whole tickets, and compound tickets. Buy one bet to win multiple prizes.

"Go to meet Bai Minghe!" Yu Qian did not comment on this matter, because he could no longer count it in his head.

Entering Tingyue Tower, there is a manned elevator. People with status like Yu Qian will definitely not walk the stairs. A very refined small compartment made of stainless steel and surrounded by glass. Yu Qian and Gao Gu stood here. The manned elevator pulled by eight mules sent them to the thirteenth floor.

The top level still needs manpower to go up.

When he arrived at the thirteenth floor, Yu Qian saw dozens of military generals led by Xu Chengzong, as well as officials from the six ministries, and dozens of people were constantly calculating what was happening with abacus.

"Duke?" Yu Qian was purely curious.

"Ah, Lord Yu." Xu Chengzong just raised his head, then looked downstairs with a monocular lens. He was still asking: "Have you calculated it, how can you make the most profitable shots in the next three games?"

Xiao Yu pushed the abacus on his hand and sighed: "You can't count as Bai Minghe, so you should do it based on your feelings. You can also make a single shot in the next three games, and then a small amount of money to the top three consecutive games. In addition, you can invest 100 taels in each of the top four, and then a few taels of silver to the two unpopular horses. It is estimated that the profit may be the highest."

Soon, the ticket was written and someone took it out, and then the betting order was also given into the house with the seal.

Xu Chengzong then said to Qian: "Master Yu, Lao Xiao and his men have almost half a day. The gameplay of Baiminghe can definitely kill people. Except for your luck that you can really win nine games in a row, the chance is one in a million. But horses can be studied. There is still a chance to win in one game. Choose the first four, which is one in ten thousand."

"I really don't know how Bai Minghe calculated the gambling method. It will take several months for me to calculate hundreds of people in my hands. But in fact, I have verified his algorithm. No matter how skillful you are, you can't count him."

Xiao Yu was not scolding Bai Minghe, but was lamenting the cleverness of Bai Minghe's complex set of ticket-making bets.

Moreover, everyone has a betting limit, which determines the limit of your possible betting based on your identity and the degree of tax payment. The betting limit for ordinary people is to bet ten cents a single bet, the limit for compound tickets, package tickets, etc. is one tael of silver.

Bai Minghe didn't want to see someone go bankrupt in the horse farm when gambling.

The eighteen horses came from Gedusi. After they won, they won not get silver, but points. What can this point be done? Bai Minghe did not explain in detail, but only said that he could get some very special qualifications for selection. But no one knew what qualifications they had.

In the middle of the island, the building on Cuidao was full of female guests, and they were still very busy.

The Xuanwu Lake opened on September 9th and Double Ninth Festival. On the Double Ninth Festival in Daming, you can go out to enjoy the scenery, climb high and look into the distance, enjoy chrysanthemums, put dogwood everywhere, eat Double Ninth Cake, and drink chrysanthemum wine. The Xuanwu Lake opened on the Wuming Festival, and the five-day festival, it can be said that people from several provinces in the south of the Yangtze River came to hear the news.

Wan Xueer was sitting in a small compartment, holding a small monocular telescope and looking at the track. A delicate abacus at hand was also calculating how to bet the most cost-effective and profitable.

Someone knocked on the door, and the white fox went to open it, but Sun Yuanjun came here, and Wan Xueer quickly stood up to greet him.

In terms of identity, Sun Yuanjun is the princess. If you want to see her, you should have sent Wan Xueer over, not come here in person.
