Chapter 150: Betting
Ring ~
Just as Xia Ping was preparing for the quarterfinals in the afternoon, his father, Xia Chuanliu, suddenly called.
"h.e.l.lo, Dad. "What's the matter?" Xia Ping took out his phone and answered the call.
Xia Chuanliu shouted, "Son, congratulations on entering the top eight." I'm fine; I just want to ask you something. "Do you have a chance to win this time?"
"Of course there's a chance." "But why are you asking about this?" Xia Ping asked curiously.
Xia Chuanliu chuckled. "Son, you might not know, but this year's Tianshui City High School Combat Compet.i.tion has caught the eye of the betting company. Because of its popularity, almost the entire city paid attention to it.
"Thus, the gambling company started betting on who would win the champions.h.i.+p. The one with the lowest odds was Qin Muyang. The odds were 1:0.5, and the highest was you, son, at 1:10.
When he heard this, Xia Ping blinked and said, "Could it be that Dad wants to take a gamble?"
"Of course."
Xia Chuanliu said excitedly, "If you win, the odds will be one to ten. "Although your father is poor, he has acc.u.mulated two to three hundred thousand in savings after twenty years."
"If we win this time, we'll get three million federal coins." How can we have such a good opportunity to make money now? After that, your mother and I will travel around the world. "We can do whatever we want."
He was smug.
"But you're the family of a partic.i.p.ant. "Isn't gambling like this against the rules?" Xia Ping said.
Xia Chuanliu shook his head. "Don't worry, as long as you win, it's not against the rules."
"Alright, let's bet then. "I have the confidence to win." Xia Ping said confidently.
Xia Chuanliu immediately said, "I knew you were good. I'll believe you this time." After saying that, he hung up the phone excitedly. He probably wanted to bet.
"A lottery company?!"
Xia Ping's eyes flashed, and with a beep, he immediately switched on his phone. He projected a virtual image and immediately searched for the website of Tianshui City's betting company. Sure enough, there was a gambling compet.i.tion in Tianshui City's High School Compet.i.tion. It was also very popular, and many people left comments on this webpage, as if they were all competing to see who would win.
He took a look at the odds. As expected, he had the highest odds. No one was optimistic about him winning the champions.h.i.+p. Even if he defeated Liu Liang, the odds did not change at all.
"Oh right, Tianshui City's betting company is a legitimate company that has been recognized by the federal government. It's said that it's extremely powerful and has a market value of tens of billions of Federation coins."
Xia Ping's eyes flickered. "If that's the case, it wouldn't be strange for the people of this company to know that Qin Muyang has advanced to the martial artist realm."
If that was the case, it was no wonder the odds did not change at all. After all, it was simply impossible for a Martial Apprentice to defeat a Martial Artist.
It was understandable that his odds of winning were 1 to 10.
"Interesting."
Xia Ping clenched his fists. "This is a great opportunity to make a fortune. If I throw in 40 million Federation coins and win, won't I be compensated with 400 million Federation coins? "How many books will I have to sell to earn that money back?"
"I guess I'll have to bet."
To be honest, he was also tempted. No one would despise themselves for having too much money, especially when they had a chance to earn hundreds of millions of Federation coins easily. It would be a fool to give up.
Moreover, Tianshui City's gambling company was a legitimate company and would definitely not go back on its word. There was no need to worry that the other party would not be able to compensate them after gambling.
Of course, if the bet was too high, the betting company would probably reject it as well. 40 million federal coins just happened to be an average amount. Even if they had to pay compensation, the other party would be able to afford it.
Thinking of this, Xia Ping immediately logged on to this website and quickly registered. He then tied up his ident.i.ty card and bank card and signed a contract with the federal government.
Ding!
He immediately bet 40 million federal coins to win the compet.i.tion.
After doing all of this, Xia Ping immediately let out a breath of relief. He clenched his fists. It seemed like even if he didn't win the champions.h.i.+p this time, it would be impossible for him to let these 40 million federal coins go to waste.
Moreover, once they won the champions.h.i.+p of this tournament, they would be able to obtain great benefits. How many people would be able to earn 400 million federal coins in their lifetime?
At this time, in the headquarters of Tianshui City's betting company, an employee immediately received this huge bet.
"Boss, someone bet 40 million federal coins on Xia Ping's victory." An employee cried out in alarm. "Is he crazy? He clearly knows that the chance of that kid winning is zero. "He's just wasting his money."
As an internal employee, he naturally knew of Qin Muyang's true strength. There was no doubt that he would win this compet.i.tion.
"Haha, how stupid."
The old CEO of the betting company said proudly, "This is simply giving us money." He got 40 million Federation coins for nothing. How can there be such a simple business that can earn money? "This is gambling."
"Boss, I think it's better to be careful." "Since the other party dared to throw down 40 million Federation Coins, he probably has a powerful background and might know some inside information," another vice president said cautiously. He was a cautious person.
"Insider my a.s.s." "Who else can get more insider information than us?"
The old head of the betting company said disdainfully, "I believe all of you should know that Qin Muyang is a martial artist realm expert." This is already a strength that surpa.s.ses all the other compet.i.tors. "How could he lose?"
"If this Qin Muyang is a commoner, I might be worried that he would cheat, accept bribes, and pretend to lose to other contestants."
"But he, Qin Muyang, is a member of the Qin Clan, and his a.s.sets are worth over ten billion yuan." Do you think that he would think highly of such a small sum of money? "For the sake of his reputation, is it worth it to risk the entire Qin Clan's reputation?"
He a.n.a.lyzed them one by one, confidently.
"Boss, we know the ident.i.ty of the person who placed the bet." It's Xia Ping. He placed the bet himself. The employee continued to investigate and found out the ident.i.ty of the person who placed the bet.
"It's actually Xia Ping? I heard that that kid is a commoner. Dad is just a city enforcement officer. "How can he take out 40 million federal coins?" The vice president was dumbfounded and in disbelief.
"Haha, it's Xia Ping."
The old CEO of the company laughed. "What a fool. Who cares where he got so much money from? Anyway, this kid is giving us money. "How can we not accept it?"
"This kid probably saw that our company thought that his chances of winning were slim and that the odds were very high." "He was indignant and threw 40 million federal coins over."
"Young people are indeed young people. Our Tianshui City betting company has been in operation for over a century. Every year, we make a huge profit. "How can we not have half a brush?"
"In order to obtain an accurate payout, we even checked the contestants' use of toilet paper every time they went to the toilet." "This kid still wants to turn the world upside down?"
"If he wants to give us money, we'll fulfill his wish."
The others nodded as well. None of them thought that the young man would be able to achieve victory. Most likely, Xia Ping was so confident because he thought that Qin Muyang, who was in the same cultivation realm as him, was no match for him. That was why he was so indignant, thinking that he would be able to obtain a huge advantage.
Under normal circ.u.mstances, this was indeed the case. However, Qin Muyang was already a martial artist realm expert. This was a completely different matter.
