326: C326 To Borrow Money from the Princess

C326 To Borrow Money from the Princess

Hearing Ye Tian's words, the two princesses, Chu Yue and Chu Yu, raised their heads at the same time and looked at Ye Tian.

He never thought that Head of the Royal Ministry of Internal Order would have something important to do in the Gathering Excellence Palace today.

Chu Yue and Chu Yu spoke up at the same time, "What is it?"

Ye Tian swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said, "Lend me some money."

Chu Yue and Chu Yu were so shocked that they nearly fainted. After staring blankly for a while, the two princesses looked at each other before asking again, "How much?"

Ye Tian swallowed his saliva again and said, "40 million silver."

Chu Yue and Chu Yu nearly fainted once again.

Forty million silver wasn't a small sum. Even as a princess, she probably wouldn't be able to afford it in such a short period of time.

After exchanging another glance with Chu Yu, Chu Yue had a puzzled expression. She first opened her mouth and asked, "Borrowing so much money, just what are you planning to do?"

Chu Yu said with the same contemptuous expression, "Head of the Royal Ministry of Internal Order, a monthly salary of thirty silver taels, what are you doing every day? Isn't it enough?"

Ye Tian rolled his eyes and said helplessly: "I'm not spending it myself, I'm investing."

Hearing Ye Tian's words, Chu Yue and Chu Yu said at the same time, "What should we invest in?"

The two of them had previously obtained the benefits of capturing the Level 9 Divine Beast, the Amethyst Phoenix, and each person had split a total of 500,000 gold. This kind of return on investment was not something that could be encountered often.

Therefore, the two sisters still believed in Ye Tian's talent and ability in investing in finance.

Seeing that Chu Yue and Chu Yu were already interested, Ye Tian took the opportunity to say, "Trust me, the investment's rate of return definitely won't be lower than one to four times. You two can pay me forty million taels of silver now. I promise I'll return one hundred and sixty million taels of silver to you two."

Upon hearing this number, the eyes of Chu Yue and Chu Yu widened in shock.

Even a noble princess wouldn't be so foolish as to go against someone.

Chu Yue and Chu Yu looked at each other and nodded. Chu Yue looked at Chu Yu and said, "Take out the money you put together."

Hearing Chu Yue's words, Chu Yu turned her head and looked at Ye Tian again. She said, "Let me tell you, Sister and I have only saved up this little amount of money in all these years. This is our dowry. If you dare to get lost for me, then compensate us ten times the price. "

Ye Tian swallowed his saliva, feeling quite disdainful.

A dowry? That's my dowry, too. In the end, it was still my money.

However, Ye Tian did not dare to say that, he continued to smile and said: "No problem, I promise, if I can't return you 160 million silver with a 1: 4 ratio, I will compensate you according to the amount that is ten times the original amount."

Chu Yu humphed and laughed grudgingly. She stood up and walked to the bedside. She pulled out a large box from under the bed and chanted a spell in silence.

With a "ding", the lid of the box was opened.

Chu Yu first took out a thick pile of Gold Banknotes from inside, and said: "This is the last time, Big Sis and I obtained a total of one million silver taels from the Amethyst Phoenix Auction."

After taking out a pile of Gold Banknotes s, Chu Yu picked up a thick pile of banknotes from the box and placed them on the table.

At this time, Chu Yue took over the banknotes, nodded slightly, and separated more than half of them. Together with the one million taels of Gold Banknotes, they were pushed in front of Ye Tian.

"Thirty million taels of silver, one million taels of Gold Banknotes, totaling forty million taels of silver. Count it all up." Chu Yue said.

Ye Tian chuckled and waved his hand: "No need, no need."

Saying that, Ye Tian wrapped his sleeves around the huge pile of Gold Banknotes and banknotes, turned around and was about to leave.

Chu Yue frowned and said, "You are a third rank official in the imperial court. It is not proper for you to carry the Gold Banknotes and banknotes out like this."

At this point, Chu Yue turned around and looked at Chu Yu. "Give him that big box." We don't have much silver remaining, so we don't need such a big box. "

Chu Yu smiled, picked up the box on the ground and handed it to Ye Tian.

Ye Tian was impressed by First Princess Chu Yue's consideration of the details. After taking the box and putting all the Gold Banknotes and silver bills into the box, Ye Tian took the box and looked at Chu Yue. He said, "Do you still remember the gambling door I told you about before?"

Chu Yue was slightly taken aback, but then she nodded her head. "Yes, why?"

Ye Tian smiled mysteriously and said: "I planned to spend this money on gambling. This time, the Ministry of Tax Administration was probably bleeding. "Or, to put it more bluntly, our royal family is going to earn some money from the Internal Affairs Bureau this time."

After he finished speaking, Ye Tian turned around and walked toward the Gathering Excellence Palace door.

Leaving behind Chu Yue and Chu Yu, the pair of beautiful princesses, standing there in a daze, unable to understand what Ye Tian meant.

Coming out from the Gathering Excellence Palace, Ye Tian specially instructed Hong Sheng and then ran over to the Ministry of Tax Administration.

When the carriage reached a distance of about two or three hundred meters from the Ministry of Tax Administration gate, it was unable to take another step forward.

Ye Tian got off the carriage and let Hong Sheng go to a quiet place to wait. He squeezed through the crowd alone.

In front of the Ministry of Tax Administration betting desk, there was still a sea of people, following one another.

Ye Tian squeezed himself closer to the betting station after a long time and looked at a young man beside him.

That young man was dressed in luxurious clothing. It was obvious that he was not a rich man, but a noble. He must be the son of a high official, or perhaps from a wealthy family.

Ye Tian stretched out his hand and patted the young man's shoulder. He said, "Hey, I said, this brother here, do you know how much silver we have bet?"

The young man turned around and glanced at Ye Tian. Seeing that Ye Tian was also dressed in brocade and was definitely not a poor commoner, he said: "You're asking the right person, my cousin's brother-in-law's nephew is also working in Ministry of Tax Administration."

The young man looked around and covered his mouth with his hand. He lowered his voice and continued, "I heard that as of last night, the total bet between us had reached 260 million silver taels."

Ye Tian nodded and laughed, pretending to be sincere and asked for advice, then asked: "Brother Ren, do you know how much Tian Gong and Oca have been bet?"

The young man thought for a moment, then continued to place his hands over his mouth and softly said: "Those who bet on Tiangong Empire were around sixty million silver, while those bet on People of Oca were a whole two hundred million silver."

Ye Tian nodded as he had a rough estimate of the situation.

Looking at the young man, Ye Tian asked again: "Then which side did you bet on?"

The young man looked left and right, then laughed, and said: "I won't hide it from you, I often play gambling, but this time, even though the People of Oca's quota has reached two hundred million, I still have to bet my Tiangong Empire to win."

Hearing the young man's words, Ye Tian gave a big thumbs up and said: "Brother, you have a good eye."

The young man waved his hand, feigned modesty, and said, "As the saying goes, wealth comes from risk. If we bet on People of Oca to win, the payout rate would be 0.2, or 10,000 taels of silver. Even if we bet correctly, it would only be 2000 taels of silver. The odds of Tiangong Empire winning were 3.23, placing a bet of ten thousand silver. If he won the bet, he would have a profit of thirty-two thousand three hundred silver. Why not bet higher? "

Ye Tian nodded with a smile and shared the same thought.

After pausing for a moment, Ye Tian asked again: "According to the current trend, which direction would the People of Oca's bet speed up?"

The young man said: "Naturally, it's the People of Oca."

As he spoke till here, the young man paused, and then continued: "This is already the sixth day of the competition, although our Imperial Household Department is extraordinary and we managed to recover a few points, but in the last day of the competition tomorrow, I think that the People of Oca will definitely send out more powerful warriors and mages.

Hearing the young man's words, Ye Tian asked with interest: "Brother Ren, then you still dare to bet Tiangong Empire?"

The young man glanced at Ye Tian, chuckled, and said: "Truth be told, my bet is on our Head of the Royal Ministry of Internal Order. Let's see if he can turn the tide on the last day and turn the tide."

After saying that, Ye Tian was moved. He patted the young man's shoulder and said: "Don't worry, I will definitely beat People of Oca to the point of running away, and win the final victory."2

With that, Ye Tian turned around and squeezed his way out of the crowd.

The youngster was left stunned on the spot, unable to react for a long time.

After squeezed out of the crowd with much difficulty, Ye Tian found Hong Sheng, sat on the carriage, and headed back towards Jade Lake West Garden.

Sitting in the carriage, Ye Tian started to carefully calculate. According to the current trend, People of Oca's payout was 0.2, while Tiangong Empire's payout was 3.23. According to this payout, ten thousand silvers would earn him thirty-two thousand and three hundred silvers. This was already slightly more than the 1: 4 profit, and could easily fulfill the promise he had made to Chu Yue and Chu Yu.

Moreover, according to the information he had just received from the young man, the difference in Oca and Tian Gong's bet was still increasing. This also meant that there was still room for betting on Tiangong Empire and Tian Gong to increase.

This world did not have an immediate accounting system. The settlement on the day of Ministry of Tax Administration was calculated using yesterday's payout rate. Under normal circumstances, since the two sides' winning and losing trends would not change greatly in a short period of time, the difference of one day's time would not affect the bet of the two sides' losses too much.

Even if there were some mistakes, they were minor ones that did not concern the overall situation.

The Ministry of Tax Administration betting division would close its bet before the final match. Therefore, no one dared to bet on whether the final match would have a huge reversal in the outcome of the match.

However, Ye Tian was taking advantage of this opening.
