For Ye Li, Ma Xiannian and Zheng Guotian are just a small interlude. He doesn't care about such so-called "second generation" figures. His eyes are looking at all kinds of cars, and he is overwhelmed.
He knew that if Li Mengqi hadn't brought him here, he might have been chased away even if he knew the place. At least he wouldn't have been able to get so close to see these cars.
Men all like cars, and Ye Li thinks that he is a man among men, so he naturally likes these cars very much. He knows that with his current financial resources, it is impossible to buy these cars, and even if he is rich,
There are many of these cars and it is impossible to buy them - there are some things in this world that cannot be solved, and this is true for antiques and also for discontinued cars.
"It seems you really like these things."
Li Mengqi had been following Ye Li and didn't speak for a long time. However, after watching Ye Li for more than an hour, he still didn't give up and finally couldn't bear it anymore.
Ye Li was also happy when he heard Li Mengqi say this, and said: "You come here often and have seen a lot, so naturally you are not curious about it. This is my first time here. It's like Liu Laoguo entering the Grand View Garden. I can't see much."
Do you want to take a few glances?"
"That makes sense."
Li Mengqi smiled and continued: "There are so many beauties here, and you don't even look at them, just look at these cars?"
Li Mengqi is telling the truth. How can there be so few women in drag racing places and drag racing places? Although this is just an "illegal" drag racing place, there is no shortage of beauties, and they are all dressed quite coolly. In fact, in many places
Among human skills, racing is equated with beautiful women.
Raising his eyebrows, Ye Li said, "Let's take a look at the car first. Besides, with a beautiful woman like you here, it doesn't matter whether I look at anything else or not."
"Hehe~ Your mouth is so sweet."
Li Mengqi was happy. She found that Ye Li at this time did not look like a so-called white-collar worker at all, but gave people a smooth-talking feeling. But she had to admit that Ye Li at this time made her feel quite good.
, which made her feel quite relaxed, unlike other men who wanted to chase her who were so cautious and worried about leaving a bad impression in front of her.
Is a man like that still a man?
"Ha, women are born with a need for praise. As a man, you should fulfill such a duty."
Ye Li said with a smile.
“So good”
Li Mengqi's words made Ye Li dumbfounded. Why did he act like a child in Li Mengqi's mouth?
Seeing Ye Li pretending to be innocent, Li Mengqi became even more happy. Just when she was about to say something, a loud sound of music suddenly sounded.
Li Mengqi raised her head to take a look, then smiled and said to Ye Li: "The real drama begins tonight."
"Oh, what's the big show?"
Ye Li curiously looked towards the place where the sound came from, and then he discovered that at some point a simple stage had appeared in the southwest direction of the venue, and then a large curtain hung above it.
A drag racing movie was being played, coupled with loud music, the screeching sounds of tires on the ground, the sounds of crashes, rollovers, etc., all of which made everyone present couldn't help but scream.
"So many people gather here for only one purpose, and that is racing. When this screen lights up, it means the racing is about to begin."
Li Mengqi also became excited. In fact, although she likes drag racing, compared to ordinary people, it is just a hobby and not an expert. Therefore, in the drag racing world of Upper East City, she is just a marginal figure. Usually
At that time, Li Mengqi was a serious white-collar worker. In order to relieve the huge pressure, she came here...
"After a while, the entire racing process will be broadcast live on this screen, so everyone around here can see it."
Li Mengqi's words stunned Ye Li. Of course there is such a thing as drag racing, but this is the first time he has heard of such a live broadcast.
"No? Many words are played so big?"
"Yes. This venue tonight is an old venue, so there are electronic cameras and other related equipment at key places on the entire track. Live broadcasting is not a problem. In fact, all the participating cars will
They are also equipped with special cameras.”
Li Mengqi's words made Ye Li even more dumbfounded. It sounded like it was done by a group of professionals. But when you think about it, it's not surprising. Who is not a rich racing driver? In many cases, modifying a car is better than buying one.
New cars cost money, so people without money cannot afford drag racing. With money and current technology, it is not difficult to achieve the purpose of such a live broadcast.
"Okay, then I'm going to see what it's like."
Ye Li had never seen such a live broadcast before, and his heart was filled with excitement after hearing what Li Mengqi said.
"There's a real highlight to this one."
"Ah? There's more?"
"Of course, you have to know that these people who are racing are just a bunch of playthings. Since there is racing, there is also gambling on cars."
When Ye Li heard this, his eyes lit up and he said, "It's like betting on horses?"
Looking around, Ye Li found that someone was clearing an intersection.
"That's right. It's just like betting on horse racing. Everyone here can place bets today. If you are lucky, you can win a lot of money."
Li Mengqi excitedly introduced that racing is already quite exciting, and gambling is even more exciting. The two things combined can definitely make people's adrenal glands secrete rapidly.
"Well...it's a pity that I didn't bring any money."
Ye Li was quite regretful. He had no idea that such a good thing would happen tonight. Although he had thousands of dollars with him, even if he went all-in, he wouldn't win much.
Pouting her lips, Li Mengqi said: "This is just for fun, can you really win the bet?"
Even if you are betting on horses and running on a flat and straight grass track, many accidents will happen, leading to unexpected results, not to mention drag racing, especially drag racing on mountain roads. Accidents
What's more, the chance of winning the bet under such circumstances is really very small.
"Hey, I've always had good luck."
Ye Li said with a smile, but Li Mengqi was right, it was just for excitement and not really to make a fortune, just participate.
Soon, twelve heads appeared on the big curtain, followed by their numbers. Ye Li knew at a glance that this must be the time to start placing bets.
Sure enough, as soon as Li Mengqi saw the twelve heads appearing on the curtain, she said: "Let's go and place bets, and then watch drag racing."
"OK……"
After Ye Li responded, the foot he just stepped out suddenly seemed to be nailed by a nail and could no longer move.
Li Mengqi walked a few steps and found that Ye Li had not followed, so she stopped and looked at Ye Li, only to find that Ye Li was staring blankly at the curtain, motionless.
Shaking her head, Li Mengqi walked back to Ye Li, patted his shoulder and said, "Let's go, what are you looking at? There are no pretty girls up there."
Ye Li smiled and said, "Okay, let's go, but before we place our bets, can we take a look at these people?"
Li Mengqi was stunned for a moment. She didn't know why Ye Li made such a request. Although the drag racing players are different every time, they are all in the same circle after all. Everyone knows their skills, so they naturally don't know how to place bets.
Go and study how these people are doing today...
But when he heard Ye Li say this, he seemed to want to study it carefully.
"Okay, actually we can go to the stage now and we will introduce them later."
"Okay, let's go."
When Ye Li heard this, he immediately pulled Li Mengqi and walked towards the stage together. Although Li Mengqi was confused, she still followed Ye Li towards the stage.
Because the curtain was not small and could be seen from other places, and preparations for placing bets had already begun, there were not many people in front of the stage. Ye Li and Li Mengqi quickly arrived at the place closest to the stage.
After a while, twelve people took turns to go on stage, and a host held a microphone and introduced them loudly. When the first one came up, spotlights shone on them, making them as bright as snow.
Ye Li was originally worried that he could not see clearly under the lights at night, but now he felt relieved.
"Well, this is pretty good. I should be able to rank at the top tonight."
"This one is okay, but it should be able to function normally."
"I'm really not optimistic about this."
…
Li Mengqi noticed that Ye Li was mumbling to himself, but because the surroundings were so noisy, she couldn't hear clearly what Ye Li was talking about. She just noticed that Ye Li stared at others when they came up.
It was like seeing a peerless beauty.
"What on earth is he doing? Isn't he thinking about asking for an autograph later? There are a lot of words."
Li Mengqi, who couldn't guess what Ye Li was thinking, couldn't help but think so in a wicked way.
Because we had to prepare for the racing for a while, the introduction ended very simply. After the introduction, the twelve people left the stage to prepare.
"How about it?"
"Let's go and place your bets. I'll get some small money to buy you a drink tonight."
Ye Li said with a smile.
After looking Ye Li up and down, Li Mengqi said in disbelief: "Are you really planning to win money?"
"Of course, otherwise I won't bet."
In fact, Ye Li planned to play for fun when he first started, but he suddenly thought that he could actually win money, so he naturally had the idea to play seriously.
"Then...how much do you plan to bet?"
"I still have about seven thousand dollars on me. If you have some money, lend me some and I'll play with a big one."
