Chapter 718

   Jinshi is 100% sure? ! !

  Jiang Liu's eyes flashed with golden light, then he turned to look at the closed door, and asked in a low voice, "Dad, did you teach Liu Juntang to pretend to be sick?"

   "No, he was really ill at that time." But later, after being healed for his father, Jiang Erye smiled very happily.

   "What happened later?" Jiang Liu asked.

   Later? Jiang Erye touched his nose and whispered, "I told him later that since I pretended, I just pretended to the end, which would save a lot of trouble..."

  Jiang Liu nodded his head and suddenly asked, "Which casino is Dad going to bet on?"

   "Five..." Jiang Erye returned to his senses, looked at his daughter's forehead solemnly, and taught, "What bet! What did your uncle say?"

   "My daughter is wrong." Jiang Liu lowered his head and obediently admitted his mistake.

   Jiang Erye coughed and whispered, "There is no absolute winning in gambling. You can play with a few taels of silver, but you can't bet on big ones. If you lose, there is no place to cry."

   "My daughter understands." Jiang Liu raised his head and asked with bright eyes, "How much does Dad plan to bet."

  This... Erye Jiang touched his chin again, "I have to discuss it with your third uncle. Now that our family has no shortage of money, there is no need to take risks."

   The mansion is indeed much better than in previous years. Dad has become an official again, so he does not have to rely on gambling money to supplement his family, but she is very short of money, so she has made the deal.

In the next two days, Jiang Liu went out and checked around, and chose five big casinos, each betting 2,000 taels of silver on Liu Juntang's ability to become a jinshi, and betting 2,000 on the Wufang Caibohang where his father bet. Two silver coins, betting on Liu Juntang to win the champion. After placing the bet, Jiang Liu had no liquidity in his hand, so he raised one thousand taels from his brother's account for the store's capital turnover.

   Jiang Liuzhu's gambling matter, except for Uncle Qiu, no one in the Jiang and Ren houses knows about it. She couldn't hide it from Uncle Qiu, because she had to rely on the secret line in Uncle Qiu's hand to make a bet, and to call the money on her brother's account, she also had to tell Uncle Qiu.

   Uncle Qiu asked earnestly, "The second and third masters only bet 1,000 taels, but the girl is betting 12,000 taels. Did the girl ever think that the money might be lost if you put it in?"

  Jiang Liu nodded, "I thought about it. But even if the 12,000 taels of silver are lost, I can still earn it back within a year."

   Six girls do have this ability, Uncle Qiu said in a low voice, "If the girl is short of money, the old man can turn around for the girl from elsewhere, you don't have to take this risk."

"You always have to prepare for your brother's return to Suzhou, and you need more money than me." Jiang Liu didn't want to tell anyone about his plans. It was very dangerous for my brother to go back to Suzhou, and his father and Uncle Qiu were doing everything they could. To pave the way for his brother, Jiang Liu also wanted to do his part.

   If she wins the bet, she will be able to collect the 30,000 taels offered by Guyuelou; if she loses the bet, she is only short of 30,000 taels... 30,000 taels... only.

  Jiang Liu took a deep breath, jumped off the stool and said, "Today's Spring Festival is over, Gongyuan is about to open, I'll go to the door to take a look."

When the gate of the Gongyuan opened, the people who had been locked for three days rushed out with tired and relieved steps. Jiang Muzheng opened his eyes to find Liao Chuanrui, Jiang Liu looked for Liu Juntang, and the two were nervous because of their different goals. .

  Jiang Mujin looked aimlessly and muttered, "Where's Yang Chaoke, where is Yao Anhong, where is the second brother-in-law, God bless you, we must let them win... I bet twenty taels of silver on them..."

The person who had been mumbling for a long time finally came out, Jiang Mujin's eyes lit up, and then he raised his heart, pulling Jiang Liu's sleeve and asking, "Sixth sister, do you see that there is no joy on Yang Chaoke's face? It's over, it's over. …”

   Jiang Liu, who was praying to the gods and Buddhas in the sky, couldn't hear the word "finished" the most, and quickly said, "The liberal arts examinations are three days in a row. These exams are very tiring, and it is normal to be unhappy."

   "Yes, yes!" Jiang Mujin's eyes regained their brilliance, "Where's Yao Anhong, where is the second brother-in-law..."

  Jiang Muzheng didn't even bother to correct her sister's address to Liao Chuanrui. She held the handkerchief tightly to find her fiance's figure, her eyes were full of tears, and she didn't see him come out. Jiang Muzheng's heart became a ball.

  Jiang Liu, who was squeezed in the middle, noticed the second sister's nervousness and comforted, "Brother Liao doesn't like to crowd with people. Last year, Qiu Wei came out last. Let's wait."

   "Yes." Jiang Muzheng held the little hand of Sixth Sister and told herself to hold on.

   After a large number of people poured out, Jiang Liu's eyes lit up when the crowd gradually dwindled, and then Jiang Muzheng cheered in a low voice, "Come out!"

   After finding Liao Chuanrui, Jiang Mujin said with a smile, "Second brother-in-law is really enthusiastic. He helped the elder brother carry the burdens in the autumn, and this time he is supporting Liu Juntang."

  Although he knew that Liu Juntang was pretending, but seeing him walk out by Liao Chuanrui and Zhao Xianghe, Jiang Liu was still a little clueless: This is too similar...

After leaving the Gongyuan, the servants of the Liu family immediately greeted him. Liao Chuanrui let go of Liu Juntang's arm and said with a smile, "Brother Liu, Brother Zhao, Xiaosheng is one step ahead."

  Liu Juntang nodded and said weakly, "Brother Lao Liao."

   Zhao Xianghe also said, "Let's meet again when the list is released."

   Liao Chuanrui complied, and went to greet Jiang Erye first, and then quickly walked towards his fiancee's carriage.

   In order not to disturb the second sister talking to Liao Chuanrui, Jiang Liu pulled the fifth sister to jump off the carriage and avoid it far away. Jiang Liu, like most of the people still outside the Gongyuan, stared at Liu Juntang, who was supported by Zhao Xianghe.

  Jiang Mujin said in surprise, "Why does Liu Juntang look better than the third day?"

   No matter how bad it is, how can he participate in the palace exam? Jiang Liu's heart was clear, and he grinned extremely happily.

   After the gate of Gongyuan was closed and everyone dispersed, Jiang Liu asked the second and fifth sisters to go back to the mansion first. She went to Huaxiangrong in the West City, called Jiang Bai and asked, "How is it?"

Jiang Bai immediately said, "The stewards of the six major casinos have been staying at the gate of the Gongyuan. When they saw Liu Gongzi being helped out, each of them was more happy than the other; the Liu Xi girl of the Yijiang Houxi House only sent a servant. I didn't personally go to the gate of Gongyuan; Lai Xin, the lieutenant of Princess Leyang's mansion, followed Liu Gongzi's carriage to Fenghua Building."

  The casinos made use of poor information. In the past three days, they used various channels to spread the news that Liu Juntang could become the champion, fooling the people who did not know that Liu Juntang was "seriously ill" to place bets. Now seeing Liu Juntang's ill appearance, the casino thought they had won, and of course they were happy.

   It is uncertain who will win and who will lose. Let's wait and see, Jiang Liu clenched his small fist and waited for the ranking.

   Ten days later, when the list was released, there were a lot of people outside the Gongyuan, and the Jiang family also sent people to check the news.

Jiang Muzheng cried with joy when he learned that Liao Chuanrui was ranked eighth; Yang Chaoke, who was betting on him, was ranked third, and Jiang Mujin jumped three feet; He opened his mouth, revealing his twenty-eight teeth.
