It took half an hour to go down the river. When we return, we have to go upstream, but since there are markers along the way and there are threads to guide us, the time it takes is not much slower.
Figuring out the location of the dungeon is only the first step. How to rescue the female family members quietly among the many guards requires another step.
The next day. Song Che called on a team of workers to widen the wellhead three times. In order not to arouse suspicion, he built a small wooden house and even dug a ditch outside Cuju City.
In the following days, apart from waiting for news from the dock, there was daily training with Luo Chao. After the qualifiers, the list of top fourteen players was released, all of them from teams from wealthy families in the capital.
The sport of football is originally a game for capitalists. Not surprisingly, the Royal Cuju Team participated.
And even if they don't participate, Song Che will find a way to invite them. Including Song Che's Hongxing Club and Royal Qingyun Club, there are sixteen teams, and the top eight competition has officially begun.
"What are you doing this morning?"
"Look at Luo Chao!"
"What are you doing this afternoon?"
"Look at Luo Chao!!"
"What are you doing tonight?"
"Look at Luo Chao!!!" Luo Chao is famous not only in Luoyang, but also in Tokyo, Beijing, and Nanjing. Many people who love Cuju have traveled hundreds of miles to come and see it.
The reputation is becoming more and more famous, the Cuju City is full, and the seats are packed. The income is also increasing, and the daily net income can reach 30,000 taels of silver!
Doing this kind of thing is much more profitable than selling cloth. Time flies and it’s September. After fierce competition, the top eight teams have been born, namely: Hongxing Society, Qingyun Society, Jiajia, Jingde College, Kangding College, Daci Temple, Bixia Restaurant, and Jingdong Escort Bureau.
Those who can enter the top eight are not weak in strength. Even though Song Che repeatedly restricted the rules of the game, he still couldn't stop the tricks of the masters.
For example, the monks from Daci Temple, a group of monks who did not eat well and chanted sutras, came over and played Cuju with Kung Fu. They volleyed the whole audience with their powerful Vajra Kicks, guarded the goal with golden bells and iron cloth shirts, and knocked down the whole audience with their hard Qigong. It was like gods fighting. Can't even defend against it.
Among the eight teams, the monks from Daci Temple are undoubtedly the strongest, followed by the Royal Family, and then the Jia Family and Hongxing Society.
There were no surprises in the eight-to-four competition, and the top four teams were all taken. Guanya Jidian will be born in two days.
In terms of strength in a single round, there is no doubt that the monk will win the championship, but no matter how boundless the Dharma is, the masters would not dare to compete with the emperor.
Everyone has recognized the Royal team as the champion of this Luoyang Super League. If Hongxingshe wants to stand out in front of the emperor, it must stand out from the semi-finals. Therefore, the two semi-finals arranged by Song Che are-the first game between the royal family and the monk, and the monk will lose.
In the second match between Hongxingshe and Jiajia, Hongxing will win. With the help of the majesty of the royal family, the strongest enemy Daci Temple was dealt with, and then the Jia family was used as a stepping stone to send Hongxing Society to the finals. Its nature is similar to that of Daci Temple.
The principle of "Tian Ji Horse Racing" is the same. The semi-finals are decided by drawing lots. As the organizer and trader, Song Che is a trivial matter.
Now, this is called professionalism! ...On the third day of September, just before dusk. The second semi-final between Hongxingshe and Jiajia is about to begin.
One hundred thousand spectators were seated in Cuju City. Master Jia did not appear, but his three godsons were all seated in the stands, looking confident and determined to win.
Based on Jia's performance in previous games, its winning rate is higher than that of Hongxingshe, and its odds are lower. If you buy to win against Jia, 100 taels will accompany 170 taels; if you buy to win against Hongxingshe, To build a society, one hundred taels can accompany two hundred and ten taels.
Half an hour before closing. Jia Dai brought several servants and carried a whole box of gold to Song Che. He asked in a provocative tone: "Boss Song, you and I are playing against each other today. It happens that we both have openings. If the gold is pressed, If you handicap yourself, then you lose the fun. I brought this box of gold to buy you a loss, no problem, right?" Song Che said calmly: "Master Jia, you need to think carefully. The odds of losing on yourself are higher. Don't lose both the game and the money, then the gain will outweigh the loss." Jia Dai laughed and pointed to the female relatives waiting on the sidelines,
"Just them? Boss Song, I didn't mean to laugh at you. It's okay for these women to show off on the singing stage, but you ask them to play Cuju? Hahaha... What do you win with?" Song Che remained calm and calm. : "Then you really bet on me to lose?" Jia Dai waved his hand and strode away: "Yes, ten thousand taels of gold, bet on me to win, bet on you to lose! Boss Song, don't default on the money then!" Song Che looked at the crowd in front of him. There was a box full of gold, and the corner of his mouth gradually curved into a sneer, as if he hadn't been sent away for more than a month, so it was inconvenient for him to come back.
"Someone come."
"What are your orders, Mr. Song?" the servant came and asked. Song Che pointed at the gold in front of him and ordered: "Find a few people to carry this box of gold to Jia's house outside the city. Listen carefully, you have to bet in five installments: two thousand gold to buy Hong Xingsheng; two thousand gold to buy Hong Xingsheng; , buy the Jia family in Hongxing three to one; two thousand gold, buy the Jia family in Hongxing six to two; two thousand gold, buy the Jia family in Hongxing eight to three; two thousand gold, buy the Jia family in Hongxing ten to zero;"
"I follow Mr. Song's instructions." The servants carried the money box and left. Since the start of the competition, Song Che has already thoroughly studied the Jia family's Dafa, and has asked Hong Xing to save his energy in every game. The purpose is to make the Jia family complacent; Hong Xing will win, and he can win four thousand by betting two thousand gold. Two; if the bet is three to one, the odds are nearly four times, and you can get eight thousand gold; if you bet six to two, the odds are eight times, you can get sixteen thousand gold; if you bet eight to three, the odds are thirteen times, you can get 26,000 gold; if you bet on ten to zero, the odds are 25 times, you can get 50,000 gold; if you bet on five kinds of bets, you will not lose any of them, and let the Jia family have one, two, or three balls. Beware of surprises. As for winning a few goals against them, it all depends on how your own women's army controls the game.
"Dong dong dong!"
"Bang, bang, bang!" Amidst the beating of drums and ringing of gongs, the fateful showdown in the semi-finals is about to begin! Guests from both sides were making final preparations outside the court.
"There is no need to say more. Remember the tactics I gave you, keep an eye on the people you need to protect, and think clearly about what you are doing." On the eve of the stage, Song Che did not give the female family members any blood. We know better than anyone that the faith of those who fight for freedom is as indestructible as the torrent of steel!
"Both sides are invited to come on stage, the game is about to begin!" the referee gave the order, and both sides came on stage and moved closer to the middle. In an instant, the cheers surged like waves. At this moment, a hundred thousand pairs of eyes focused on these twenty-two people. They were like Glitter like a star!
Although they are girls, the tenacity and fierceness in their eyes are not inferior to those of men at all!
"The time has come, kick off!" The correction referee threw the ball into the sky. Their game begins.
