Nine dragons fight for the throne, I don't want to sit on this throne

Chapter 666 Don’t want it for nothing

"draw?"

Chu Ning raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and a hint of surprise flashed across his face.

To be honest, he had never thought of this possibility.

After all, all he wanted was to win.

A draw is unacceptable to him.

Just as Chu Ning was stunned, Liu Che's mouth corners slightly raised and a smile appeared on his face.

As expected, I guessed it right.

This kid Chu Ning wants to play dirty tricks.

Looking at his current state, he clearly looks like he is at a loss as his thoughts have been guessed by others.

Liu Che chuckled proudly: "Good, a draw!"

"Why, His Royal Highness the King of Chu doesn't dare to open this plate?"

Chu Ning rolled his eyes, carefully looked up and down at the person in front of him, then narrowed his eyes and said in a deep voice:

"Of course you can have a tie, but the odds are so high, your bet is too low, you need to start with at least 300,000!"

Raise the price?

Liu Che sneered in his heart.

This is not a sign that Chu Ning is guilty, but a way of raising the price to make him back down.

You think you can stump me with just three hundred thousand taels?

Do I look like someone who is short of this little money?

Want to scare me?

Then I will show you my strength and ask you to pay more.

Liu Che suddenly burst into laughter, his laughter shook the heavens, and under everyone's surprised gaze, he slowly said:

"My bet is one million taels!"

"If you agree to open the game in a draw, I'll send you a banknote shortly!"

If you want to play, play big.

The more Chu Ning raises the price, the less confident he is.

Sure enough, when the one million taels of silver were paid, Chu Ning stood there in a daze and didn't speak for a long time.

Looking at Chu Ning's surprised face, Liu Che felt secretly happy.

Everyone said that the King of Chu was very shrewd and loved to cheat people, but in front of him, he was nothing special.

Seeing Chu Ning was hesitant to speak, Liu Che smiled and said, "Your Highness the King of Chu is not afraid, is he? One million taels, one to five, but only five million taels!"

"With the financial resources of His Royal Highness the King of Chu, I believe he should be able to afford the compensation."

Such provocative words made Chu Ning narrow his eyes, and a strange look flashed across his eyes: "Are you sure you want to bet one million taels?"

"Of course!"

Liu Che pointed at the crowd and said, "How dare I lie in front of you all?"

"very good!"

Chu Ning sneered: "I'm going to win this draw!"

"I accept your bet of one million taels of silver!"

"Master Deng, open the market!"

Deng Hongwen, who was standing by, immediately wrote the word "draw" on the table, and then wrote the odds below: 1 to 5!

Liu Che laughed when he saw this: "Very good, my people will come to deliver the silver later."

After saying that, he turned around and left.

When Huo Quji saw Liu Che leave, he looked at Chu Ning and said with a smile: "Your Highness, you played too big this time. If you lose, you will lose a lot."

Although I know Chu Ning is very rich, if Chu Ning really loses such a big bet, his family fortune will be emptied.

Unexpectedly, Chu Ning raised the corner of his mouth slightly and chuckled, "Don't worry, I have my own plans, and I won't lose anything."

"Now that everyone has placed their bets, it's time to let the people outside in. Champion Marquis, please give the order!"

Outside, people brought by Huo Quji were maintaining order. Of course, Huo Quji had to give the order to let people in.

Huo Quji nodded slightly and waved his right hand: "Come here, let the people outside line up and come in one by one."

At the command, the soldiers outside received the order and quickly let the people in.

The first ten people came in and lined up to enter.

Seeing so many people in the yard, the ten people were a little surprised, but they only knew Huo Quji, and they all bowed to him.

"No need to be polite, just place your bets!" Huo Quji pointed at the bet on the table and said calmly.

When everyone came forward to take a look, they found that the odds were exactly as rumored, and they were immediately excited.

"I bet ten thousand taels, Chen Wang wins!" Someone placed the bet first.

"Hey, there's actually a tie here. I've changed my mind. I'll bet 10,000 taels on a tie!"

Someone noticed that there was still a tie and immediately put the banknote on that side.

"Yes, since His Royal Highness the King of Chu dared to agree to the competition, he must be sure of it. I also bet 10,000 taels on a draw!"

"In that case, I bet five thousand taels for a tie and ten thousand taels for Chen Wan to win."

A smart guy bet on a draw but still felt it was not enough, so he bet on Cao Zhi to win.

This action also made the people behind react.

Yeah, with the odds so high, it’s better to bet on both sides.

For a moment, several people behind bet on a draw and Cao Zhi's victory.

This scene made Cao Zhi's mouth curl up slightly, revealing a hint of pride.

The more people come, the bigger the stakes, and the more Chu Ning loses.

After the competition is over, he will severely humiliate Chu Ning and let Shen Wanying know that you have chosen the wrong person!

He, Cao Zhi, is the most suitable person!

While we were getting excited, the second group of people came in.

Chu Ning did not collect the bets placed by everyone on the table, which also allowed the people behind to see where the people in front had placed their bets.

Seeing that many people bet on a tie and Cao Zhi’s victory, the people behind were not fools and they reacted after a little thought.

Soon, these people followed suit and bet on both sides.

But no one bet on Chu Ning to win.

In just a short while, the silver bills piled up at the scene exceeded hundreds of thousands.

This made Deng Hongwen very excited. He had to keep recording the other party's name and the amount of the bet. He not only kept a copy for himself, but also wrote a copy for the other party.

But in this way, the speed is too slow.

Chu Ning couldn't help but raise his eyebrows when he saw this, and shouted, "Ran Ming, select a few more people who can write."

"Yes!"

In order to speed up the process, several more people were added to record the progress, and the speed increased a lot.

In just one hour, the banknotes on the table were piled up like a mountain and there was no more space.

"Someone, come here, move a few more tables and put them behind the three plates!" Chu Ning just didn't want to put the banknotes away.

He just wanted the people behind to see how the people in front placed their bets.

Naturally, his little thoughts could not be hidden from everyone.

Cao Zhi, who had not left, smiled contemptuously: "King of Chu, you are trying to guide others to bet on a draw and for me to win!"

"Why, aren't you afraid that you will lose?"

"lose?"

Chu Ning laughed: "How could this prince lose? From the time I was born till now, this prince doesn't even know how to write the word 'lose'!"

"But you, King Chen, have been reluctant to leave. Do you want to see how I make money?"

Cao Zhi chuckled and shook his head repeatedly: "Just keep talking tough. After five days, I will see how tough you are!"

After finishing speaking, he turned around and left.

At this moment, a man dressed like a servant came in and handed over a few banknotes with a smile:

"Your Highness, Prince Chu, my master asked me to deliver 900,000 silver notes!"

Chu Ning's eyes lit up.

The guy really kept his promise and delivered the banknote.

Don’t refuse the banknote that is delivered to your door!

"let it go!"

Chu Ning said calmly: "What is your master's name? My people need to take note."

"This……"

The man was stumped for a moment.

Fortunately, Huo Quji was still there and immediately took over the conversation: "Just write Lord Liu."

Chu Ning narrowed his eyes, revealing a look of sudden enlightenment, and said with a smile: "Okay, then write Lord Liu!"

After he finished speaking, he stood up and said with a smile: "Everyone, it's getting late, why don't you go back and rest first, and see what happens in five days?"

Seeing Chu Ning ordering everyone to leave, Huo Quji, Princess Changping and others bowed and left.

And those who place bets continue to do so.
