Everyone thought that Liu Changqing must be the winner this time, but they were all wrong!
The person who won the first place this time was a little-known person named Qiu Zining.
Moreover, Qiu Zining still had a small dispute with Ji Moyan who was beside Gu Man.
In line with the fact that all men like female protagonists, the book once wrote: Qiu Zining, a down-and-out scholar, came from a poor family and was the poorest and most down-at-heel among this generation! Both of his parents died when he was young, so he relied on the money left by his parents.
With a little money, he barely finished the book. Finally, the village chief raised a few taels of silver from the villagers and gave it to him, asking him to come to the capital to take the exam.
However, although Qiu Zining came from a humble background, he was very noble and strong. In their village, no one had been able to pass the examination for hundreds of years. At most, being a scholar was already a big deal.
Therefore, the village was extremely happy when a candidate was suddenly elected! And Qiu Zining was treated favorably by the villagers.
However, what does it feel like when a man who is used to being respected by others is ridiculed and laughed at on his first day in the capital?
Having suddenly arrived in the big city, he was full of energy and confidence, thinking that he would definitely get a place in this prosperous big city. However, by chance, he met the most domineering man in the capital.
They looked down on Qiu Zining, who was plainly dressed and looked sour and rustic. They even thought it was a shame to participate in the selection with him!
As a result, Qiu Zining, who was arrogant and arrogant, was hit hard and became drunk every day.
But at this time, our heroine appeared, met Qiu Zining who was hungover on the street, and told him that there is no distinction between high and low!
From then on, Qiu Zining cheered up and won the top spot in one fell swoop!
Gu Man laughed, looked at the waiter, and asked, "Is there a famous brand called Qiu Zining?"
The waiter thought for a while, and finally picked up the fifth-to-last name tag at the end, "This is Qiu Zining!"
"It's just..." The waiter hesitated to speak, and finally said: "This Qiu Zining is unknown, how could the young master vote for him? Could it be that he knows him?"
Gu Man didn't say anything. She turned over the name tag that said 'Qiu Zining' and saw it read: Odds: 1 to 200!
Gu Man said in surprise: "Xiaoer, where can I place my bet?!"
The waiter smiled and pointed the way to Gu Man: "Sir, come this way!"
Ji Moyan, who was next to her, pulled Gu Man and whispered: "Sister, don't you want to place a bet?"
Gu Man also whispered: "Just once, never again! By the way, do you have any money? Come bet with me later, and we will make a fortune together!"
But Ji Moyan shook her head, "I don't, my father told me that I can't gamble! There are only zero times and countless times for gambling! Sister, you don't want to gamble either!"
Gu Man said: "Don't worry, I promise this is the first and last time!"
After saying that, he ignored Ji Moyan's stop and followed the waiter forward.
The entire second floor was full of people who came to place bets, including some of the current winners, and the excitement was as lively as those shopping on the street outside.
The waiter brought Gu Man and Ji Moyan to a place with the most densely populated people.
After finally squeezing in with the waiter, I saw a large, over-long table surrounded by a crowd. Behind each table sat a bookkeeper and a cashier.
Gu Man counted and found that there were twenty people, that is, ten tables.
I just heard a man wearing simple clothes but full of fat next to him said to the bookkeeper: "I want to place a bet on Liu Changqing, two taels!"
A short and thin man next to the fat man laughed and said: "Who doesn't know that Liu Changqing's odds are the smallest! What's the difference between winning and not winning?"
The fat man ignored the thin man's ridicule, but said plausibly: "No matter how small a mosquito is, it's still meat. I bet two taels. If Liu Changqing wins the first prize in the exam, I can get four taels, and I also make a profit of two taels! What I call
Be conservative and you will make money!”
The thin man laughed dryly and stopped talking.
Gu Man thinks what the fat man said makes sense!
The waiter explained the rules of betting to Gu Man and Ji Moyan.
The first is to bet casually. Regardless of whether the person you bet on ends up being the top pick or the second pick, the odds are the same as the one on the board.
Second, you can choose the person you bet on to win the No. 1 pick or No. 3 pick, and the odds will double. However, if the person you selected does not win the No. 1 pick or No. 3 pick, then the money you bet will go to the restaurant owner!
Gu Man smiled, of course it was the second type!
Gu Man took out two 100-tael banknotes that she had packed before going out, thinking: If I had known, I would have taken out more!
Although Gu Guo didn't like Cheng Mo and didn't have much money, Gu Gu's own dowry was quite large.
Gu Man said to the bookkeeper: "Here are two hundred taels, I want Qiu Zining - the number one scholar!"
As soon as he finished speaking, there was an immediate silence around Gu Man. The people behind the table, the waiter and other people around looked at Gu Man in disbelief.
Not long after, a burst of laughter and thunderous sounds suddenly came from the surroundings.
At this time, a person laughed and pointed at Gu Man and said: "Where did this stupid boy come from to vote for that poor scholar Qiu Zining? If he can go to high school, I, Liu Siyang, will pull off his head and play it as a ball for him! The whole thing
Who in the capital doesn’t know that the person who will win the first prize this year will definitely be Liu Changqing, the son of the Liu Shangshu family!”
Others also felt that Gu Man was wasting his money and could not hear any sound.
Two hundred taels!!
Why is this person not a fool?
Gu Man laughed and thought to herself: Why do you want the NPC in your book to compete with me? I'm the one who has watched the finale, okay?
Ji Moyan on the side was also a little worried. After all, it was only two hundred taels of silver. How many precious medicinal materials could it buy?
"Sister, do you want to stop thinking about it? Nine times out of ten you will lose, so stop gambling!"
Gu Man shook his head, determined!
Gu Man said to Ji Moyan: "Yan'er, lend me five taels of silver and I'll give it to you later!"
Ji Moyan was puzzled and obediently took out five taels of silver and handed it to Gu Man, and asked quietly: "What do you want to do, sister?"
Gu Man smiled and said she would know later.
Gu Man wanted to teach Liu Siyang, who was about to take off his head and use it as a ball for her to kick!
Gu Man looked at Liu Siyang and smiled, then placed five taels of silver in front of the bookkeeper's account book and slowly said word by word: "Liu Changqing - Tanhua!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone around him took a deep breath!
Crazy, crazy! This person is crazy!
Who doesn’t know that Liu Changqing will win the top prize!
At this time, the fat man said: "Master, put your money away quickly. This is not the best way to spend money!"
The man named Liu Siyang smiled, shook his head and left, obviously not wanting to argue with Gu Man, a lunatic.
Seeing that Gu Man was not moved at all, the others shook their heads in pity for her, and then dispersed after placing their bets. This chapter has been completed!
