"Hey! You know? Wu Laowu is putting usury money there! He also said that he can use his usury money to bet on the result of the test at noon today!"
"Tch, I've known it for a long time! But is this Wu Laowu crazy about money? He goes out nine times and returns thirteen times! The damn money he won is not enough for interest. Who is so stupid as to do this losing business?
?”
"Hey! Your news is out of date! Those who come to him to borrow cash are indeed always out of luck! But for those who don't want cash and just place bets, he will just draw the money!"
"Hmm? Just take a commission? Is he so kind? How much?"
"Not much, not much! Only one-tenth!"
"One-tenth? The odds are two-tenths, and he takes one-tenth? Isn't this half the price? He's too dark-hearted!"
"Nonsense, if he wasn't evil, he wouldn't be Wu Laowu! But don't think about it, this is basically a borrowed chicken and egg job! You don't spend a penny and you can get a share of money for free. Who wouldn't rush to borrow it?
If he hadn't agreed that each person could borrow fifty copper coins, I would have had to lend him a hundred and eighty copper coins. This change of hands would be equivalent to getting a thousand copper coins for nothing!"
"Humph, you have to win first. If you lose, how about a few thousand coppers? You won't get any of them, and you'll have to bear a lot of debt!"
"Losing? How is that possible? Brother, I secretly went to see it. Among the hundred people we selected this time, every one of them is a good man! If they are put on the battlefield, they will all be beaten ten by one.
It’s not like you haven’t seen those people under Xiao Hou, they are all like bean sprouts, why don’t you give them rapeseed oil?!”
Conversations like this are almost everywhere in the military camp!
Ever since Wu Laowu opened up the possibility of gambling on credit, his gambling stall immediately became a hot topic of discussion, attracting even more attention than the actual competition that was about to begin.
However, although many people in the camp did come to try it out and signed IOUs on the spot, most people still had a wait-and-see attitude towards it.
If you win, you only win a tenth of it; if you lose, you have to pay it all!
With such a huge risk, most people, except those who are outright gamblers, are still wary of it.
After all, Xiao Han's reputation lies there!
In addition, the news that he spent a lot of money and bet on his side to win has gradually spread, which undoubtedly made many people murmur in their hearts, fearing that they would lose everything.
"He actually opened a credit account first?"
Just when there was already a commotion outside, Xiao Han, who also heard the news in the military camp, was startled at first, and then burst into laughter!
He was originally considering whether to ask someone to lend loan money so that he could win back more of his five thousand guan.
But he didn't expect that Wu Laowu would be so sensible and lend the debt first, which would save him trouble!
Well, when the bet is over, let Wu Laowu work for him for fifty years to pay off his debts, instead of working for a lifetime...
"How many people borrow money to make bets? Can they collect enough money to compensate us?" Thinking of this, Xiao Han asked again.
Hearing this, Xiaodong scratched his head and said uncertainly: "I heard from them that there are bettors, but not so much. As for compensating you, I shouldn't have to think about it."
Yes, 60,000 yuan! For those Kuhaha in the military camp, this is definitely a number that they dare not even think about. Such a big number, let alone them, even Wu Laowu only
Dare to have a hard time while dreaming.
"In this case..." Xiao Han also knew that his question was a bit out of touch with reality. After rubbing his nose in embarrassment, he decisively told Xiaodong and Lengzi: "Then let's help ourselves. Go and put this
In this competition, the news spread that we only got ten people, so I don’t believe they won’t fall for it!”
"ah?"
"Ah what! I spent five thousand guan this time. I can't just make 1,800 guan and forget about it, right?"
"oh……"
So, as Xiaodong and Lengzi hurriedly retreated, the military camp soon fell into an uproar again! Wu Laowu's gambling stall was also once again surrounded by crazy gamblers.
To the northwest of the army camp, there is a wasteland with a wide view. Because it is close to the camp, it was naturally selected as the location for this competition.
Before lunch time was over, the wasteland was already surrounded by soldiers waiting to watch the excitement.
And the generals under Liu Hongji brought people over early and measured the place one by one, fearing that Xiao Han and the others would do something here.
Don't look at these people who usually laugh and laugh, but look careless.
But in fact, the truly heartless people have died eight hundred times on the battlefield! If they can survive the intrigues on the battlefield and become generals of one side, none of these people are stupid!
Even though they have a hundredfold confidence in their soldiers, they still don't lack any caution.
"Look carefully! Xiao Hou used to be known as the Divine Marquis! Legend has it that his Xiao Family Manor was full of clever tricks! Don't be careless!"
On the edge of the wasteland, on a temporary high platform, Chu Yongfeng, the left forward general who was commanding this time, was loudly giving orders to his men.
After hearing Chu Yongfeng's order, the deputy general beside him smiled and cupped his hands and said: "Haha, don't worry, General Chu! These people are all carefully selected by us! Which one of them is not killed in a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood?"
How could something go wrong?”
Chu Yongfeng heard this, but he did not relax. He still frowned and said: "A lion fights a rabbit with all his strength! What's more, the opponent is the Marquis of Sanyuan County? By the way, have you prepared all the kerosene?"
"Everything is ready!" The deputy general handed over his hand again and replied with a proud face: "They must have never imagined that not only can they play with fire, but we can too! Hey, let's see how they win now!"
"Well, then follow the plan! Let someone check the equipment again to make sure there are no mistakes!"
"Here!"
Time passes minute by minute.
Seeing hundreds of big men casting a net, they completely explored the wasteland twice, but as their opponents, Xiao Han and others still didn't see even a single figure.
The many soldiers who were watching finally couldn't bear their thoughts, pointed at the wasteland, and started talking among themselves!
"Huh? Why haven't the people from the firearms camp come yet? Is it possible that they are afraid and don't dare to come?"
"How dare you brag that there are only ten people to fight? I think they are heifers sitting on the bellows. They are bragging!"
"Hey! It's a good idea if you don't come. We'll go directly to Wu Laowu to collect the money later! It's his grandma's. When I went to get a credit card, he only got 50 guan on credit. If this is 5,000 guan on credit..."
