Outside the Youwuwei camp, a group of people set up three or four barbecue grills and were shouting hard.

"The delicious mutton skewers, if not delicious, don't ask for money. There are also oysters that improve strength, and leeks that make men strong. Don't miss it if you pass by!"

The light smoke mixed with the unique aroma of barbecue immediately attracted the attention of many people passing by. As the aroma filled the air, more and more people came here.

After three or four barbecue grills, several guys were busy, but they all had happy smiles on their faces.

A man wearing a brocade robe, with broad shoulders and a round waist, looked at the sea of ​​people around him, and his originally fierce face burst into a smile as bright as a chrysanthemum.

"Brother is my brother. It is indeed a wise decision for me to bring people here to sell barbecue. I am afraid I will get a good harvest today!"

The man in the brocade robe was none other than Zhao Tianhu, and the reason why he came here early this morning was because Luo Zhang asked him to come with something to do.

"Boss, here are ten skewers of mutton..."

"Boss, give me five bunches of potato chips..."

"Boss, give me a grilled eggplant..."

There are many people as popular as Datang Barbeque Shop, and these people have also discovered today's business opportunities.

Not far from the barbecue shop, there was a long table surrounded by people.

Several guys are also busy.

What they sell is not merchandise, but bets.

On their long table were pieces of lambskin, with a personal name written on the lambskin.

There are Changsun Chong, Yuchi Baolin, Chai Lingwu, Qin Huaiyu, Cheng Chumo, Li Huairen, Weibo Yi, Duguhong, Yu Wenyi, Heijia Changzhi, Luo Zhang...

There are fifty names in all.

Under the names of these people, there are some numbers, some say one for one, some say one for two, and the highest one says one for one, fifty.

"If you haven't placed your bets, place your bets now. Guess who will win this year's handicap for Yan Lai Lou. As long as you guess correctly, Yan Lai Lou will pay for it!"

This shouting immediately attracted more people's attention, and they all looked towards the long table.

"Isn't that Wang Er from Yanlailou? I didn't expect him to come here today!"

"This Yan Lai Lou is really smart. He actually came here to start a bet on who can win the championship. He is really good at this business. No matter how he buys it, Yan Lai Lou is a big winner!"

"Yan Lailou has the strength and connections to win this handicap, but ordinary people would never be able to play it."

"No matter what his strength is, whether he is a big winner or not, let's go and buy some first, maybe he will win. If he does, I will treat everyone to a drink!"

"Yes, the Yanlailou family has a great business. Even if they lose, they won't be able to afford the loss. I'll buy some too."

Zhao Tianhu, who was very close to the barbecue shop, naturally heard the shouts of Yan Lailou's guy. He was once a gangster, but he was also a gambler. However, since working with Luo Zhang, he has not gambled again. Today I heard Yanlailou opened the handicap,

Zhao Tianhu suddenly felt itchy and unbearable.

He ordered his men to keep an eye on the stall, while he rubbed his hands and walked towards the long table beside him.

Arriving at the long table, Zhao Tianhu glanced at the pieces of lambskin.

Changsun Chong pays one for one, Yuchi Baolin pays 15% for one... Cheng Chumo pays eight for one, Li Huairen pays three for one, Gao Sheng pays thirty for one... Luo Zhang pays ten for one!

When he saw Luo Zhang's name, Zhao Tianhu's eyes lit up. He paid ten times for every win. If he won a hand, he would pay ten times.

Thinking of this, Zhao Tianhu took out five gold cakes from his purse without hesitation, threw them under Luo Zhang's name and said, "I will buy Luo Zhang five hundred taels of gold!"

As soon as this statement came out, everyone around him was in an uproar. Five hundred taels of gold, which is equivalent to fifty thousand taels of silver, who is so generous.

Everyone looked for the sound and saw Zhao Tianhu with a smile on his face, cupping his hands and saying to everyone: "I agree, I agree, everyone, if you are hungry, go to our Datang BBQ shop to eat some barbecue and wait for the results of the competition. Kill two birds with one stone." ah!"

At this time, Zhao Tianhu did not forget to promote Datang Barbeque Shop. If Luo Zhang knew about this professionalism, he would be greatly praised.

"I know, this is Zhao Tianhu, the owner of the Datang BBQ shop in Dongshi. I also bought grilled leeks from him. Although it cost a tael of silver, I couldn't resist the fact that their food was really good, so I ate the grilled leeks. Xiaocui from Chunxiang Tower is begging for mercy again and again."

"I also bought oysters from them. I just ate one of those oysters and my level improved by one level."

"You are all behind on the news. The Datang BBQ restaurant is not only open in the East City, there is also a Datang BBQ restaurant in the West City. Looking at it, it won't be long before the Datang BBQ restaurant will be opened everywhere. Chang'an City."

The crowd's discussion did not affect those who came to the building behind the long table.

When they heard that Zhao Tianhu was going to defeat Luo Zhang by five hundred taels of gold, they were so excited. You must know that Luo Zhang was not very strong among the people competing in the competition this time. He could only be regarded as above average. In this way Yan Lailou's strength is naturally not favored by Yan Lailou, so his odds are set at 10 to 10, and those who are strong and are favored to win the championship, such as Changsun Chong, Yuchi Baolin, Duguhong and others, naturally have odds It's very low. After all, they are very strong. If the odds are high, whoever wins the championship will have to pay a lot of money.

Zhao Tianhu bought Luo Zhang five hundred taels of gold. In the eyes of the Yanlailou people, it was just a gift to Yanlailou. It was strange that they were not happy about such a good thing.

Zhao Tianhu was given a receipt with a special seal from Yan Lailou. The receipt said that Zhao Tianhu bet five hundred gold, Luo Zhang, and pay ten for one.

The people from Yanlailou couldn't wait to collect the five hundred taels of gold. It seemed that these gold cakes were already theirs.

"Is this person's head broken? He actually tried to suppress Luo Zhang, so Luo Zhang obviously can't win the crown!"

"You don't know something right now. As far as I know, the real owner of Datang Barbeque Shop is this Luo Zhang. Isn't it natural for people to suppress their own owners?"

"Even if Zhao Tianhu wants to flatter his employer, he won't spend fifty thousand taels!"

"Isn't it okay for Datang BBQ Restaurant to be as willful as it is rich?"

Zhao Tianhu had no time to deal with these people. He happily returned to his barbecue shop with the receipt issued to him by Yan Lailou. Others may not know Luo Zhang's strength, but he knew it clearly. Don't use common sense to guess, otherwise you will suffer a big loss. He once suffered the loss of Luo Zhang pretending to be a pig and eating the tiger, so he has great confidence in Luo Zhang. He does not believe that Luo Zhang will lose.

In other words, if Luo Zhang wins, he will get rich. If he loses ten, five hundred taels of gold can instantly become five thousand taels of gold. How could he not do such a good thing and pressure Luo Zhang to win? ?

The competition ground in the Youwu Guard Camp was already full at this time. The east, west, north and west sides were all filled with people. Only the south side was empty, but there were already flags fluttering, and there were groups of guards wearing golden armor. As well as guards wearing capes and carrying long knives at their waists, they surrounded him.

The south side is reserved for the royal family. The royal family is naturally a group of people headed by Li Shimin. With Li Shimin's status, it is naturally impossible to sit with everyone. This is not only as simple as reflecting status, but more importantly, this has It is helpful to protect him and the royal family members. Who knows if there are killers from other countries lurking here.

You know, there are quite a few people who assassinate Li Shimin every year. The Jinwu Guards, City Defense Department, and Secret Intelligence Department are worried about this and have arrested countless people, but those foreign killers still persist in trying to kill Li Shimin. .

Today is indeed a good opportunity, so Jin Wuwei and the Secret Intelligence Department dare not slack off at all, for fear that if Li Shimin makes any mistake, they will die without mercy.

The empty space in the middle of the surrounding high platform is the competition ground for today's martial arts test. Here, fifty young heroes from Chang'an City will compete here to win the honor of being the first in the martial arts test.

At this time, the members taking part in the martial arts examination were also ready, waiting for the arrival of His Majesty and the royal family.

Luo Zhang's mind was not on the martial arts exam at this time, but he was frowning and thinking about the hatred value that had flooded the screen the moment before. The hatred value that flooded the screen at that moment was so weird that it made him feel a little uneasy, but this He felt uneasy but didn't know where it came from, which puzzled him.

The objects of suspicion are naturally those whose hatred value swells the screen.

"Made, what kind of medicine are you selling in your gourd? Don't let me catch you, otherwise I will make you look good!" Luo Zhang glanced at the surrounding high platform and said to himself.

Changsun Chong was riding on the horse, glanced at Luo Zhang, and sneered.

Chai Lingwu also glanced at Luo Zhang, with an intriguing light in his eyes.

As for Cheng Chumo's look at Luo Zhang, it was a little complicated.
