Chapter 936: Fighting Over First Place: Brother Guang’s Ploy

For 10 million Chinese yuan, that was about all the wealth a big boss in Longmen City could have. After all, such a sum was considered huge in 1999; someone affluent with more than a million in savings was called a millionaire. This was how millionaires came by.
Unlike the modern days, one was on the pedestal if one could own a million Chinese yuan back then. Yet for Yun Jian, she came up and candidly said that she wanted to bet 10 million—and added that… it was in US dollars? Converted to Chinese yuan, that would be 60 million!
Good gracious, 60 million was close to 100 million! If the asset of 100 million Chinese yuan was set in the time setting of 1999, the person possessing that would be topping the chart of the riches in the whole of Longmen City and even Zhe Province!
Ge Xuan’s two friends nearly fell on the ground from shock when they heard what Yun Jian said. Both of them were initially planning to bet a few hundred yuan on Ge Xuan but compared to the latter’s younger sister who was betting 60 million… Both of them quietly stuffed the money back in their pockets.
“Girl, this is…” The employee at the betting station had never encountered someone who betted 60 million yuan in one go before and was dumbstruck by Yun Jian’s action. He only managed to stutter after a while.
“You can register it,” Yun Jian urged without caring for the person’s reaction.
The employee’s hands were shaking but he accepted Yun Jian’s card anyway and kindly reminded in passing, “Girl, do you really want to bet on that red Ferrari? The person the Ferrari’s racing against is a high-level member of Falcon Hall. People call him Brother Guang. That’s one famous guy. He’s never lost since he came to the racetracks… You…”
“That’s the one,” Yun Jian said without waiting for the employee to finish.
“Alright.” Of course the employee listened to Yun Jian and went through the procedure for her with trembling hands.
After making the bet, Yun Jian took the betting ticket and went to the bleachers.
“Ge Xuan’s sis, let me get you a bottle of juice. A vendor just came with his cart over there!” One of Ge Xuan’s friends went to her in an attempt to fawn over her.
“No thanks.” Yun Jian smiled at him and went to the raised platform.
From the bleachers, the large screens could be seen showing the winding circuit of Yuanbao Mountain clearly. The red Ferrari that Ge Xuan drove was already stopped side by side to the Audi sports car Brother Guang drove on the standby track right now.
“It’s starting. It’s about to start!” Both Ge Xuan’s bros squealed excitedly as they wrapped their arms around each other.
Yun Jian sat on the bleachers with her arms crossed in front of her chest, watching the Ferrari sports car and Audi sports car stay on the same line—until the referee pointed the starter pistol to the sky and shot it while he waved the small red flag he held.
Then both sports cars shot out like the wind.
They kept at the same speed for only a moment before the red Ferrari sports car led a huge gap in advance of the Audi sports car during the start. Both cars vanished before everyone’s eyes swiftly as they reappeared on the big screens not an instant later.
About dozens of sharp turns later, the Audi sports car was about to catch up. It was evident that Ge Xuan’s techniques had room for improvement but the Ferrari sports car’s speed allowed him to lead.
There was a turn in Yuanbao Mountain that avoided the large screens the spectators were watching. Brother Guang who was currently driving the Audi sports car glared at the red Ferrari sports car that he had been tailing closely but was unable to cut. He suddenly wore an evil smirk. He was struck with a solution.
Hah, fighting for the first place with him? Die!
