C4149 A Huge Gamble!
"We are all very curious," Huang Jianren said with a smile.
"I think you want to see me make a fool of myself," Dongfang Qingyu said.
"Why are you being so modest, God? Everyone knows that your strength and vision are the best in the entire Yan Huang. The person you choose will definitely not be wrong." Huang Jianren's tone was sincere, making it hard for others to tell what he was thinking.
"It's just a rumor. The media always wants to exaggerate things. They dare to say that a small goal is a small goal. Listen to it, but don't take it seriously. If you take it seriously, then you will lose," Dongfang Qingyu said lightly.
"If it's just the media's bragging, I naturally don't believe it. But if the experts I know say so, then it must be true. After all, an expert might lie, but ten experts can't lie," Huang Jianren said.
"What do you want to know?" Dongfang Qingyu asked.
"There are only three people left. Who do you think will be the final champion?" Huang Jianren asked.
"I am also looking forward to this result. Qingyu, why don't you say it? Who knows, it might become a good story," Duan Jiuyi interrupted with a smile.
With this, Dongfang Qingyu could not help but speak.
"How about this? We can't let the great god say that for nothing. We will give you a prize in Chaoge City. A fist-sized Soil of Breath. As long as you guess it correctly, the Soil of Breath will be given to you," Huang Jianren said generously.
The people present were slightly moved. They were not professional players and did not know much about the tools of the peasants. However, they had heard of the Soil of Breath. It was a noble existence in the soil, an existence at the top of the pyramid. A fist-sized Soil of Breath was worth more than a hundred million, and it was incomparably expensive.
Ordinary peasants were not worthy of having Soil of Breath, because they could not afford it. The thing that Huang Jianren casually took out was the Soil of Breath. It could be seen that Chaoge City had a deep foundation. Although it had just been established, its foundation could not be underestimated.
Dongfang Qingyu shook his head.
"Why? Don't you dare?" Huang Jianren seemed to be trying to provoke him, but in reality, he was mocking him.
"I am not interested in small fights. You give me the Soil of Breath, and I give you the Nine-Colored Earth, which is the same as the Soil of Breath. In addition, I will add another billion RMB. If I guess wrongly, these are all yours," Dongfang Qingyu said.
The people present sucked in a breath of cold air. They had all heard that Dongfang Qingyu had a domineering personality and did not like to suffer losses. From the moment he walked into the venue, he had been calm and steady. Everyone thought that the rumors were false, but who knew that the moment he opened his mouth, everyone knew how true the rumors were. The value of the Nine-Colored Earth was almost equal to the Soil of Breath. It showed that Dongfang Qingyu's foundation was not beneath Chaoge City at all. The bet of one billion was like a flying immortal, piercing straight into Huang Jianren's heart.
What was the concept of a big picture? For businessmen, money was the concept. If he opened his mouth and said that he had 10 billion RMB, other than showing his great confidence in Dongfang Qingyu, he also revealed his financial ability. 10 billion was just an ordinary amount. Everyone present was a big shot, but it would be difficult for them to casually take out 10 billion. Some of them were even less than 10 billion.
"Since you have such a great interest, I will give up my life to accompany you. Chaoge City will also add 10 billion RMB." Huang Jianren thought for a moment and clenched his teeth.
It was difficult to get off the tiger. This was the description of his current mood. He could refuse, but could he refuse? This was the first meeting since Chaoge City was established. The purpose was to announce the influence of Chaoge City. If he refused, it would have a huge impact on Chaoge City and would have a bad impact on the future development. Therefore, he could only accept the challenge.
In the end, he didn't understand Dongfang Qingyu enough. He just wanted to see Dongfang Qingyu make a fool of herself, but he didn't expect Dongfang Qingyu to use such a method to counterattack. If Dongfang Qingyu had guessed wrongly, he didn't need to publicize it. Everyone present would spread the news, which would be a huge blow to Dongfang Qingyu's reputation. If Dongfang Qingyu was lucky and guessed correctly, it didn't matter. The Soil of Breath was very precious, but to Chaoge City, it was just a material. The key was that the material would make Dongfang Qingyu listen to her orders. This would give people an impression that Dongfang Qingyu was doing things according to Chaoge City's wishes. Invisibly, Dongfang Qingyu's status would be lower.
Dongfang Qingyu saw through Huang Jianren's evil intentions and threw out a billion yuan, instantly reversing the situation. On the contrary, it made Huang Jianren feel bitter and unable to say anything. There was no more food left in Chaoge City.
The construction of Chaoge City had exceeded its budget again and again. He now had a pile of debts. Currently, Chaoge City only had around three hundred million in liquid assets. A billion yuan was really a difficult problem for him. This was the reason why he had promised so much.
"It's settled then. Everyone, please bear witness," Dongfang Qingyu said.
"I believe that the two of you will not go back on your word," Duan Jiu said with a smile. He looked at Dongfang Qingyu with a different kind of meaning.
"City Lord Huang, if you feel that the stake is too small, you can add more. I have no objections," Dongfang Qingyu looked at Huang Jianren.
"Everyone here has a status. Small gambling is good. This is the best. Otherwise, if the media finds out, who knows what they will say," Huang Jianren said with a smile. Everyone could see the awkwardness in his smile.
"City Lord Huang, if you think it's appropriate, then it's settled. I am a very easy-going person and never force others to do things." Dongfang Qingyu had a kind of understanding of people and became serious. "I think that the four books and five scriptures of the Summoner are better than my father's wealth. I think that he can win the final championship."
"Oh? Why?" Huang Jianren asked. Everyone present looked at Dongfang Qingyu, wanting to know the reason.
"The reason is secondary, the important thing is the result," Dongfang Qingyu said.
"This is a little... confusing," Huang Jianren said with a smile, "I believe everyone wants to know the reason."
"One billion RMB is all real money and silver, it can't be fooled," Dongfang Qingyu said lightly.
"... Let's wait and see the result." Huang Jianren was choked by the words, and everyone revealed a disappointed look, but they did not dare to say anything.
The first match was that the Summoner Proficient in Four Books and Five Scriptures was inferior to his father, who was rich. After a fierce battle, the Summoner Proficient in Four Books And Five Scriptures was inferior to his father, and he won by narrowly escaping death. Out of the ten Hell's Three-Headed Dogs he summoned, nine died, and only one survived, with one leg broken.
The umbrella could not cover the big head. It was not a joke. The umbrella could not cover the big head was not defeated by strength, but by tactics. He had thought of capturing the thief and the king at the beginning, and wanted to kill the proficient in Four Books and Five Scriptures who was inferior to his father as quickly as possible. Unexpectedly, the proficient in Four Books And Five Scriptures who was inferior to his father had already seen through his thoughts. He used his anxious mindset to set up a series of traps. In the end, the umbrella could not cover the big head's health was worn out, and he was defeated.
The audience looked at Dongfang Qingyu with a slight change in their eyes. From doubt to admiration. No matter what the final result was, at least, the proficient in Four Books and Five Scripture who was inferior to his father won a match, proving that Dongfang Qingyu still had a good eye.
In the second match, the umbrella could not cover the big head against Breeze. Perhaps because of the first match, the umbrella could not cover the large head. Breeze did not perform well in this match. However, his opponent was an Old Player with rich combat experience. Breeze took advantage of the umbrella not covering the big head and attacked relentlessly. He thought that there would be a fierce battle, but it ended in less than ten minutes. The umbrella could not cover the big head was defeated.
Both of them were defeated, and the umbrella could not cover the big head was completely eliminated, losing the chance to compete for the championship. The champion would be between the expert in four books and five scriptures and his father, who was rich, and Breeze.
People in the arena looked at Dongfang Qingyu from time to time. Whether it was luck or strength, the expert in four books and five scriptures was not as good as his father, who was rich. Even if he did not win the championship in the end, Dongfang Qingyu would not lose too badly. It could be said that at this point, Dongfang Qingyu might lose money, but her reputation would not suffer too much loss.
Dongfang Qingyu tilted her head and whispered to Ye Feifei as if it had nothing to do with the battle. One billion seemed to have no pressure on him.
"You shouldn't have made a bet with Huang Jianren." If there was anyone who was the most nervous at the scene, it was undoubtedly Ye Feifei. As the saying goes, concern makes one confused. She did not care about Dongfang Qingyu losing money. One billion was a lot, but the Qingyu Bar could be taken out. She cared about Dongfang Qingyu's reputation. Dongfang Qingyu's reputation was invincible. If she failed to see someone, there would be a lot of hostile forces who would use this as an article. Three people became a tiger. In today's society, there were many rumors and slanderous things that could destroy people.
"Don't you trust me?" Dongfang Qingyu was unhappy.
"I heard from the grapevine that Huang Jianren and the Treasure Gathering Bowl are working together to control the competition. Although no one can provide evidence, there must be a reason for this rumor," Ye Feifei said.
"Do you mean that Huang Jianren dares to control the competition in front of everyone and make me lose?" Dongfang Qingyu asked.
"I can't be sure, but this is a competition held in Chaoge City. Huang Jianren has a lot of influence," Ye Feifei said.
"If I lose, will Feifei raise me?" Dongfang Qingyu asked.
"It's already at this time, and you're still joking." Ye Feifei was so anxious that she couldn't sit still. At this time, the competition for the champion had already begun. Being proficient in the four books and five scriptures was not as good as having money. He had hidden his strength by summoning three bone dragons. However, Breeze had also hidden his strength and killed one bone dragon in an instant. The remaining two bone dragons were unable to stop him effectively. Being proficient in the four books and the five scriptures was not as good as having the money. He retreated again and again, and the situation was extremely bad.
"Don't worry, am I that stupid? When I came, I was prepared. I just didn't expect that the one who jumped into the pit was Huang Jianren." Dongfang Qingyu smiled and showed Ye Feifei a video.
"Ah!" Ye Feifei was so shocked that her beautiful eyes widened in disbelief. She looked at Dongfang Qingyu for a while, then looked at the video. Her expression was cute.
"I sent the video to Duan Jiuyin. What will Huang Jianren do?" Dongfang Qingyu asked with a smile. Ye Feifei suddenly raised her head and realized that Duan Jiuyin and Huang Jianren were no longer at the venue. She did not even know when they left.
