"Zhao Chen, aren't you going to place a bet on yourself?"
Not long after Li Chengqian left, Old Li Tou changed out of his armor and walked over.
Spring hunting is actually just for young people to have a try.
Elderly people of the previous generation would not participate in such activities.
Most of them just came with the emperor and gave themselves two days off.
So as soon as the young man left, the camp seemed particularly quiet.
"I'm afraid that when the time comes that you, Mr. Li, won't have enough money to compensate me, you will think of defaulting on the debt." Zhao Chen glanced at Mr. Li, not giving him any face.
At that time, Lao Li was told that his head had been scratched.
What does it mean to default on your debt?
When did he default on his debt?
"As long as you dare to place a bet, I will compensate you if you win." Old Li Tou couldn't bear this anger.
If he doesn't clear his name, he won't be able to be the emperor in the future.
"Forget it, you don't have that much money." Zhao Chen waved his hand casually, not taking our old Li Tou seriously at all.
Old Li Tou immediately became unhappy.
What is your identity?
That was the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, a saint.
The entire Tang Dynasty has to listen to him, and all the wealth belongs to him.
He has no money?
Why doesn't he have money?
"Boy, don't provoke me. If you don't place a bet today, I will kick you to death." Old Li Tou couldn't stand Zhao Chen's contempt for him, so he yelled out at that time.
"Your Majesty, it won't happen, it won't happen..." Wei Zheng quickly advised.
The so-called fire at the city gate would affect the fish in the pond, but Wei Zheng didn't want to be affected.
The ministers who were talking around heard the emperor's angry voice and quickly gathered around.
"What's wrong? Why is Your Majesty so angry?"
"It seems that Zhao Chen said that if he places a bet, His Majesty won't have that much money to pay."
"What, Your Majesty has no money to compensate?"
"Since the establishment of the Salt Bureau, I heard that His Majesty has hundreds of thousands of dollars in his private treasury, and the Ministry of Revenue is very envious of it."
"Your Majesty has no money to pay, how much does Zhao Chen want to bet?"
The officials discussed in low voices.
"Boy Zhao, this world belongs to me. The money you bet..."
"Well, I will bet Wangyou Bookstore and all the assets in the bookstore, which is about 500,000 guan, with your majesty." Before Old Li finished speaking, he heard that Zhao Chen was going to bet 500,000 guan.
Note.
Old Li Tou was stunned at that time.
Five hundred thousand dollars!
He knew that Zhao Chen had made a lot of money this year.
But I never expected that a Wangyou Bookstore would have so much money.
Be obedient.
He is a majestic emperor, and his private treasury is not as rich as Zhao Chen's one property.
How can this be said in the past?
"This, five hundred thousand dollars -" an official exclaimed at that time.
Five hundred thousand guan, this is going to eat up the emperor's private treasury entirely!
Too greedy.
That's too much!
"Wangyou Bookstore has opened branches all over the country. The printing and papermaking are top-notch. It's normal to make money. But I didn't expect that it would be so profitable."
"It seems that I really can't afford to pay half a million yuan."
"Even if it's a loss of two, as long as Zhao Chen sits here and does nothing and bets on himself to be in last place, wouldn't he just win five hundred thousand yuan in vain?"
"Good guy, this is a sure-fire deal."
Everyone was talking, and Old Li Tou felt that he had made some mistakes.
As everyone said, Zhao Chen bet on himself to be in last place, and then waited here for the end of the spring hunt.
Then he must be the last one.
Didn’t he lose five hundred thousand yuan in vain?
This is absolutely not okay.
"Zhao..."
"Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will never cheat. With these five hundred thousand guan, I will bet on myself to be the first in the Spring Hunting. How about that?"
"Haru Shou's score is first? Pfft——" At that time, some officials couldn't help laughing.
Seeing Zhao Chen glaring at him, he quickly turned his head to the side, covering his mouth and laughing.
"Zhao Chen, are you crazy?" Wei Zheng touched Zhao Chen's forehead kindly.
He felt that Zhao Chen must have been mad at him and the emperor just now.
Otherwise, why would you say such a thing?
Bet on yourself being the best in spring hunting?
Why don't you just go to heaven?
"Is what Zhao Chen just said true? Is Chun Shou the best?"
"Let's not mention that Zhao Chen himself has no skills at all. The one who came to participate in the Spring Hunting is not a top-notch one."
"If Li Ruoshuang doesn't participate, then Luo Tong will definitely have the best results, followed by people like Cheng Chumo and Qin Huaiyu."
"The prince's skills are also very good. The top five are probably them."
"Zhao Chen? How can he compete with these people? And he said he wants to take first place?"
The officials absolutely did not believe that Zhao Chen could take the first place in the spring hunting competition.
After all, this strength is right in front of you.
Anyone who listened felt that Zhao Chen was bragging.
Old Li Tou was also shocked by Zhao Chen's words.
Betting on his first place in spring hunting is so arrogant. As an emperor, he would not dare to say such a thing normally.
What's wrong, Zhao Chen, are you really going to heaven?
But the old Li Tou today is no longer the old Li Tou!
After being tempered by Zhao Chen countless times, Old Li Tou has become very mature.
"Boy Zhao, I think you should think about it again. After all, it's not easy for you to save so much money."
"Just bet less and bet more consistently." Old Li Tou seemed to be trying to persuade Zhao Chen.
In fact, it was stimulating Zhao Chen.
After being told this by himself, based on his understanding of Zhao Chen, this boy must be full of resentment.
But I didn't dare to really bet on my own.
What a pity these five hundred thousand dollars are.
Thinking about it, Old Li Tou felt that he was still too benevolent and righteous.
If these five hundred thousand guan fell into his own hands, his private treasury would have nearly one million guan.
Can't you just use it however you want?
As for Zhao Chen getting the first place in Spring Hunting, this is absolutely impossible.
What does Lao Litou think? Why doesn't Zhao Chen understand?
What he is worried about now is that if Old Li Tou loses, he will most likely default on his debt.
After all, if you pay one thousand yuan, you will have to pay a full compensation of 500,000 yuan...
Zhao Chen felt that if Lao Li didn't come up with the money, he would definitely choose to kill someone and silence him.
"Old Wei, my lords, today you will bear witness. I, Zhao Chen, will bet 500,000 yuan on myself and bet on my first place in the Spring Hunting."
"Use the entire Wangyou Bookstore as collateral." Zhao Chen's words rang in everyone's ears.
Everyone's expressions changed immediately.
This kid is really crazy.
He actually dared to bet the five hundred thousand yuan.
Old Wei Tou looked at Old Li Tou for help.
He really didn't expect that Zhao Chen would really have such courage.
Five hundred thousand guan, if Zhao Chen wins, won't the entire Tang Dynasty have to pay to Zhao Chen?
Old Li opened his mouth.
He only wanted to make fun of Zhao Chen before, but then he thought that Zhao Chen actually took it so seriously.
Well, five hundred thousand dollars, wouldn't it mean that all the bones in his head would be torn apart?
"That Zhao Chen—"
"No need to persuade, it's only 500,000 yuan, I can't afford to lose." Zhao Chen waved his hand and was immediately blocked by Lao Li.
Old Li Tou felt very uncomfortable.
Five hundred thousand dollars, you can afford to lose, but I can't afford to pay it back!
