Chapter 2290 Horse racing mother Lu Lingqi, the strongest female general Zhu Rong

Chapter 2286: Horse racing lady Lu Lingqi, the strongest female general Zhu Rong

The emergence of horse racing and betting is naturally the result of Ying Hao's intentional promotion.

The Central Plains is not a grassland. Except for aristocratic families, ordinary people have no access to horses. Therefore, it is very difficult to build a horse industry chain. It is definitely not something that can be done in the short term. However, Daqin’s finance Obviously not allowed to drag on for too long.

A large reserve of horses is naturally a good thing, which represents the strength of the country's national strength, but too much is not a good thing, but it will burden the country's finances. After all, raising horses also costs money.

Daqin's horse reserves greatly exceeded the military's digestion capacity, and the military could not digest so many horses, so the whole society had to share the pressure, so that the horse industry chain could embark on a virtuous circle.

But for the common people of the Han Dynasty, it is okay to let them raise cattle, sheep, chickens and dogs, but raising horses to save them is blind.

Moreover, with the increasing national power of the Great Qin Dynasty, the increase in productivity is even more visible to the naked eye. Whether the people are farming or engaged in other industries, as long as they work hard, they are not afraid of starving to death. Why take the risk to engage in the emerging horse-related industries?
Ordinary people are not motivated to engage in the horse industry, and the aristocratic families want to get involved, but Ying Hao controls this very tightly, which will definitely let the emerging industry of the horse industry be controlled by the aristocratic family.

But going on like this is not an option. If the common people join in and share the interests of the family, even if Ying Hao does it intentionally, the industry will still be controlled by the family sooner or later.

The prosperity of the world is all for profit; the world is full of hustle and bustle, all for profit. ——From "Historical Records"

In order to stimulate the enthusiasm of the people, Ying Hao launched the sport of horse racing and betting on horses. With huge experience benefits, he lured the people to actively participate in the horse industry chain.

Ying Hao set up four enthronements for Daqin's Marseilles, namely: county, county, state, and country.

Even if it is the lowest-level county-level horse race, if the horse race can be won, it can at least get a bonus of [-] yuan, and the highest-level national-level horse race has a bonus of up to [-] gold.

Money touches people's hearts. Compared with the income from horse racing, the expense of raising horses is nothing to mention. How can this not make people's hearts move?

As for betting on horses, it makes gamblers all over the world crazy. If you are lucky, you can really get rich overnight.

Driven by profit, a large number of people invested in the horse industry, which made Daqin's horse industry chain improve rapidly, and also prevented the aristocratic family from controlling this emerging industry.

After many years of horse policy implementation, Daqin finally perfected the horse industry chain, making the horse industry embark on a virtuous industrial cycle.

Now let alone 100 million horses, even 200 million horses will not become a burden on the country, but will bring huge economic benefits to the country.

Today, the income of the horse industry alone accounts for [-]% of the total national income, and it is still on the rise, and horse racing has become the most popular sport.

In the east of Luoyang City, Yezhaoyu Racecourse is led by Ying Liangyu, the eldest princess of the Great Qin Dynasty, and jointly funded by Mu, Yang, Zhou, Wang, Hao, Bai, Li, and Shen. It is built with her husband Zhao Yun's mount Yezhaoyu lion named.

From the construction of the racecourse, to maintenance, to holding races, race bonuses, and paying taxes, etc., it takes a lot of money, and even Ying Liangyu can't afford it alone.

Although Ying Liangyu's husband's family was rich, she was married after all, and her husband's Zhao family's family background was obviously not strong.

At first, Zhao Yun was very puzzled by his wife's plan to build a racecourse. After all, although he and his wife had high status, they didn't have much wealth.

But when Ying Liangyu said that the racecourse was built to support the horse administration of the lord, Zhao Yun immediately stopped talking, and spent all his family property to preside over his wife's construction of the racecourse.

But even so, it was still not enough to build the racecourse, so Ying Liangyu, La Muyang and other six companies bought shares, so that they could have enough funds to build the racecourse.

With the support of the national policy, the development of Daqin's horse industry is the general trend, and large and small horse farms have been built all over the country.

Not long after Ying Liangyu's racecourse was built, it became famous through several races, attracting racehorses from all over the world to compete, and a large number of local people to watch the races.

After earning money, Ying Liangyu began to expand the scale of Yezhaoyu Racecourse, which has been expanded three times so far.

From the beginning, it could only accommodate [-] spectators at most, and now it can accommodate up to [-] spectators, but it is still a bit crowded.

The people's obsession with horse racing and betting makes it difficult to sell enough tickets every time a horse race is held at the racecourse. Even if there are [-] seats, it is still not enough, so Qin Liangyu is already preparing for the fourth expansion.

As for the big racecourses like Yezhaoyu Racecourse, there are still eight in Daqin.

As for the current horse race, it was named the "Shenwu Cup" by Ying Liangyu, and she also intends to make the "Shenwu Cup" the biggest horse racing event in Daqin.

On the high platform, Ying Liangyu looked at the racecourse below and the shouting people in the audience, and felt that all the sacrifices were worthwhile.

With the benefits brought by this horse farm, Zhao's family has changed from being frugal to a top-notch wealthy family in one fell swoop, and life is finally relieved.

"His Royal Highness, this is the list for this competition. Except for the top ten horses from Luoyang, the rest of the horses are all from all over the country."

Hearing this, Ying Liangyu frowned slightly after taking a look, and said to herself, "Why is that little girl Lu Lingqi here again?"

Ying Liangyu likes Lu Lingqi very much, and thinks that she has the potential to become the leader of the Women's Army, but she doesn't like her coming to her racecourse, because when she comes to Marseilles, her income will drop by at least [-]%.

This is simply to grab money, but Ying Liangyu has no way to stop it, because Lu Lingqi has won the finals game by game through formal channels.

If Lu Lingqi had let Chitu race at full speed from the beginning, her odds would not have been so high. The outrageous thing is that she let Chitu run behind him, but she could still easily enter the top three every time. Such a way to squeeze into the final will naturally not become the favorite to win the championship. Waiting for the final is to let Chitu go all out for the final, and spend a lot of money to buy high odds to win.

The horses that can reach the final are all fast horses that are one in a million, or even one in a thousand. But even so, it is impossible to run past Chitu at the horse king level. Lu Lingqi has contracted the championship in advance.

Lu Lingqi had already succeeded once before, but now she is going to come again, how could Ying Liangyu suffer.

“来人，去把9号骑手的赔率，从1：7降到1：3。”

Although Ying Liangyu couldn't stop Lu Lingqi from competing, he could artificially adjust her odds to reduce the loss of the racecourse.

At this time, Lu Lingqi was already riding on the field, and was thinking about how to spend the winnings. She had no idea that her odds had been lowered by Ying Liangyu's use of the rules. If she knew, she would definitely call her cheating.

For this race, Lu Lingqi is sure of winning. After all, with the speed of Chitu, she dare not say that she will sweep the world's famous horses. At least none of the horses present are opponents, so she spent a thousand gold to buy herself to win, and most of them Still looking for someone to borrow.

A young lady like Lu Lingqi is naturally not short of money. The reason why she 'borrowed' her father's red rabbit to participate in the competition is mainly to help her father after winning the prize money.

During the Guanzhong War, Lu Bu was ambushed by Li Shimin, and many cavalry under his command were killed and injured.

Although the soldiers who died in the battle had pensions, Lu Bu felt that it was his fault this time, so he paid out of his own pocket to subsidize the families of the soldiers. This also caused the Lu Mansion to fall into financial crisis again, so Lu Lingqi 'borrowed' the horse to compete again and earn bonuses To subsidize the household.

In fact, if Lu Bu wants to make money, there are actually many connections, such as agreeing to Chitu to borrow seeds.

After the interest in the horse racing industry, and after the family realized the benefits of the horse industry, many families with strong capital joined in, and they are not like ordinary horse owners who can only rely on themselves to raise horses and train horses, but they are targeting those who have already become famous famous horse.

The better the famous horse, the better offspring it will give birth to, and most of these famous horses are in the hands of fierce generals.

For a fierce general, a mount is his second life, and it is impossible to buy a famous horse, so a better way for an aristocratic family is to borrow a seed.

Let those famous horses be used as stallions to mate with their own mares, so as to optimize their bloodlines, give birth to excellent young horses, and train them to become racehorses.

Famous horses such as Lu Bu's Chitu, Zhao Yun's Yezhaoyu Lion, Qin Qiong's Hulei Leopard, and Li Cunxiao's Flame Horse are all the best stallions in the eyes of the family. A one-time loan for planting.

Are the aristocratic families all stupid?In order to borrow horses, how much money is spent?
Of course they are not stupid, on the contrary they are very shrewd. The reason why they are willing to pay so much is because they know that they will get a greater reward.

As long as they can succeed in breeding and obtain young horses with famous bloodlines, they will be able to breed more high-quality racehorses and make them money continuously. This is an investment for generations of Fuze.

Like Zhao Yun's Yezhao Jade Lion, when there is no war, it can mate with up to 155 mares a year, becoming the most popular stallion in Daqin and the most breeding stallion, earning tens of thousands of gold for the Zhao family income.

Of course, once Yezhaoyu's bloodline has flowed out and is no longer unique, the cost of borrowing species for mating will naturally decrease.

The Yezhao Jade Lion is not the stallion that breeds the most. It is said that Duke Wei Cao Cao's mount Huang Feidian mates with more than 260 mares a year at most. This also shows how short of money Cao Cao is short of.

But this kind of good thing, which is almost the same as giving money, also has some generals who are unwilling, not because they are stupid, but because they are also aware of the value of their horse-loving bloodlines, so naturally they don't want their horse-loving bloodlines to flow out.

For example, Lu Bu, even though the Lu family was so poor that it was almost impossible to get rid of it, he did not agree to let the Chitu borrow the seed, but it was not like Chitu's blood flowed out.

"Chitu, you must perform well in the meeting. After you win, I will let you eat carrots to your heart's content."

Lu Lingqi stroked Chitu's neck, and murmured softly next to his ear, while the psychic Chitu let out a long howl, his eyes were full of invincibility, as if he was extremely disdainful of his opponent on the racetrack.

"Okay, the racehorse No. 13 is now on the field: Meshiro McQueen, this horse has a lot of background, it is the offspring of His Majesty's mount Xuelong, and its rider is the famous female God of Wealth, Miss Ye Qingmei ..."

Mebai McQueen was not called this name at first, but she changed it after Ying Hao gave it to Ye Qingmei.

In addition, Ye Qingmei also named Xue Longju's other heirs: Golden Boat, Cao Shangfei, Mi Yu and so on.

Naturally, Ying Hao had no objection to this, since it was just the name of the horse after all.

Seeing Ye Qingmei riding a white horse on the field, Lu Lingqi's eyes faintly ignited with flames. This woman is her strong opponent, whether it is horse racing or otherwise.

Ye Qingmei didn't care about Lu Lingqi's hostility, but greeted her with a smile, but Lu Lingqi arrogantly turned her head back.

Soon, the race started. Chitu and Mejiro McQueen rushed out almost at the same time, and the speed was getting faster and faster, leaving all the other horses behind, and the distance was getting wider and wider.

The audience in the auditorium were stunned. They couldn't believe how fast No. 9 horse raced, but felt that this scene was vaguely familiar.

Soon some viewers realized that this was the 'Red Fire Flying Dragon' who won the championship twice by changing his name and retaining his strength.

Familiar looks, familiar routines, after a year and a half, the nightmare in the hearts of horse gamblers has come back again.

The gamblers who felt deceived shouted: "Liar, liar..."

Lu Lingqi was not affected at all, and continued to ride the horse and whip, and finally shook off Mebaro McQueen in the second half, and won the championship of the "Shenwu Cup".

In the auditorium, Zhu Rong, who bought the No. [-] horse race winner, was completely stunned.

Cuiyu had prepared for a long time to bet on the horse this time, and after many analyzes she came to the conclusion that buying No. 4 was the safest, so she spent tens of thousands of dollars to buy No. 9 to win, but she never expected that No. [-] would upset and win the championship.

"It shouldn't be. My analysis was wrong. Not only did No. 2 fail to win the championship, it even failed to win No. [-]." Zhu Rong muttered to herself. At this moment, she suddenly remembered that when she placed the bet, an old gambler advice given to her.

Son, listen to my uncle's advice, the water in horse betting is very deep, you can't grasp it.

At this moment, Zhu Rong only felt that the old gambler was right.

"My lord, what should we do now? The money you bet on the horses was used to sell arms to Qin." Xian Shen asked with a mournful face.

Zhu Rong resisted the grievance in his heart, and said with a cold snort, "Hmph, but as far as ten thousand gold is concerned, I can earn it back in minutes."

"How to earn?"

After hearing this, Zhu Rong began to ponder, and then his eyes fell on Xian Shen, and he began to look up and down, making Xian Shen uncomfortable.

"Young master, what do you want to do?"

"Shen'er, let me wrong you first."

--------

"Come and take a look, don't miss it when you pass by..."

The streets of Luoyang.

Zhu Rong was standing on the ring with a gong, and behind him was a big banner with the four characters of "Contest and Marriage Recruitment".

Xian Shen sits on a chair with nothing to love. She is the object Zhu Rong uses to recruit relatives through martial arts competitions, and martial arts competitions are Zhu Rong's way to make money.
