Mrs. Liu caught him and preached, "Grandfather and grandmother have said more than once that our family is not allowed to be a dude, and we are not allowed to bully others..."
Liu Huan was so annoyed that he dragged Bai Erlang and was about to change positions. The three Bai Shan beside him didn't speak, but looked at the field seriously. After a while, the three smiled and watched Xi Bing leaning over and speeding up his horse. At the start of the second lap, he directly left the person behind him for a long time.
At the last lap, she rushed to the finish line first, Man Bao and others cheered, and even Mrs. Zheng stood up excitedly from her seat. After taking a look from a distance, she couldn't help but bring someone down, and took a closer look. .
Miss Liu was also attracted by her eyes, so she stopped talking about it. She looked at the person who crossed the finish line first and asked, "Who is this? She looks so good-looking. Is it a dancer from the Western Regions, or a businessman?" female?"
Man Bao proudly said: "It's mine."
Miss Liu couldn't help looking at her, "Did you bring it back from the Western Regions?"
Man Bao nodded, "How about it, isn't it good?"
Seeing that Xibing had already received the bounty for this game, Miss Liu nodded and said, "That's right, what else would she want?"
Man Bao said: "I can also dance swords."
Miss Liu's eyes lit up, and she couldn't help but said, "When will she give us a set of sword dances for a reward?"
"No problem, I will mention it to her when she is in a good mood."
Miss Liu was very envious, and asked, "Are there many women like this in the Western Regions?"
Man Bao is not sure, "A lot."
"Can you sell me two?"
Xibing, who had just brought up the bounty, was stunned for a moment as if struck by lightning when he heard this.
Man Bao said with a smile: "That's no good, I promised them that they would not sell theirs anymore, and they will marry in the future."
Miss Liu said: "I will let them marry in the future, the price is not a problem."
Man Bao glanced at Liu Huan, and seeing that he had no intention of interfering, he shook his head firmly, saying that this person was given to Liu Huan at the beginning, but Liu Huan gave it to her because he didn't want it.
Seeing that Man Bao was unwilling to let go, Mrs. Liu was quite sorry, and she didn't want to force others to make things difficult for her.
Xibing breathed a sigh of relief, took the money bag and went forward, kneeling respectfully in front of Man Bao, said: "My lord, this is the money won by the servant."
Man Bao smiled and said: "Since you won, you can keep it yourself."
Xibing happily responded, kowtowed and put away the money bag, then turned around and stood behind Manbao.
Miss Liu was still regretting, and then she saw that in the next few games, two women from the Western Regions would enter the arena. Even if they couldn't get the first place, there would always be one of them who could get the second or third place It doesn't matter once or twice, but four times in a row, a foreign woman won the ranking, and the onlookers couldn't help talking.
"Whose servants are these, or merchant girls or dancers brought by some caravan? I think they all wear the same clothes."
"That style doesn't look like the clothes of the Western Regions, is it someone's servant?"
"Who can come up with eight such dancers in one go?"
"It's not eight, it's ten. Do you think there are still people queuing up to pick horses?"
"Really, hey, who is so ignorant, is this here to spoil the scene or show off?"
The commotion here quickly attracted people from the stands on the other side of the arena, and everyone came to watch the excitement.
Zhao Liulang also rushed over with a group of people, and he knew at a glance who was making the noise, so he went straight to Bai Shan and the others, "It's lively, the higher ups are betting, and they're all betting on this game Do you want to place a bet on whether it is the woman from the Western Regions who will win the championship?"
Bai Shan and the others shook their heads together.
Zhao Liulang said: "There are several kinds of bets. One of them is whether they can still get the ranking. The odds of getting it are 1 to 1, and the odds of not getting it are 3."
Several people still shook their heads.
Zhao Liulang said: "This is very simple, you just need to let them put the water..."
Man Bao: "Is it the same as you playing polo and match-fixing?"
Zhao Liulang: "...we never play match-fixing!"
Man Bao glanced at him and said: "My girl will not run a fake horse, this is a matter of integrity!"
Zhao Liulang: "...can make money."
Man Bao: "A gentleman loves money and gets it in a proper way. Don't say you let me run a fake horse, just a word of gambling is enough. Besides, do you think I seem to be short of money?"
Zhao Liulang was choked by the last sentence, and couldn't find anything to say for a long time.
Zhao Liulang could only ask, "How are the two of them equestrian?"
Man Bao thought for a while and said, "It seems to be pretty good."
They also wanted to ride horses since they were young. After all, there are no barbarians who can't know horses. Occasionally, distinguished guests will let them perform and take them hunting, so they go back.
In terms of equestrian skills, they are better than Man Bao.
Zhao Liulang thought about it, then took out another twenty taels to the boy, and asked him to bet that they would win.
She felt a little regretful, "I took a big risk in this move. If they win, I will earn less. If they lose, I will lose everything."
Bai Shan glanced at him and said, "You don't need to gamble."
Bai Erlang said: "You still owe us money, you agreed to pay us back when we come back from the Western Regions."
Zhao Liulang waved his hands angrily, "Don't worry, I'll give it to you when I sell the last box of spices in my hand."
Bai Shan couldn't help asking him, "I heard you sold a lot of spices, are they so expensive?"
"That depends on who you sell it to." Zhao Liulang was a little complacent, and he glanced at them, "I know, you have brought back a lot of good things this time, so many things have been brought into the capital at once, and you want to sell them all. It's impossible."
Man Bao said: "We didn't think we would do all of them in the capital. In a month or two, when the weather gets warmer, my family will go back to Mianzhou, and I will take some of them to Yizhou."
Zhao Liulang: "... Yizhou can't eat it, right?"
"Even if you eat it, the price won't be very high," Zhao Liulang was afraid that Zhou Man would say "you can eat it", and immediately said: "You can't keep so many things in your hands for three or two years before you sell them?"
Bai Shan glanced at him and asked, "Do you want to help?"
Zhao Liulang smiled and said, "Students, I can still help if you ask."
He didn't want others to know, so his voice was very low when he said these words, and now he just put his arm on Bai Shan's shoulder and whispered to them, "If you don't worry, give me some, I'll give it to you Sell it, and buy me a glass of water and wine later."
But Bai Shan shook his head, "It doesn't matter, I'll set a price for you, you sell it, and the extra money is yours, and you can just give us the price we set later."
Zhao Liulang raised his eyebrows, stretched out his hand and patted him on the shoulder and said, "My dear brother, I have written down your feelings."
Bai Shan trembled, and directly pulled his hand away, "Don't, it sounds scary."
