Chapter One Hundred and Thirty: Gambling (Part 7)
"Betting, what are you betting?" Hearing Jiang Hai's words, the man temporarily shut up and asked with some hesitation.
"Just bet on the New York Husbandry Exhibition in April this year, whose cattle can become the king? If your company wins, I personally lose to you one million US dollars. If my cattle wins, I'm sorry, you lose to me one million US dollars. If you don't have the money to pay, then you kneel down and kowtow three times to me." Looking at the person in front of him, Jiang Hai smiled disdainfully.
"One million US dollars?" Hearing these words, many of the onlookers next to them took a breath.
Well, they didn't think about it. They were so big. Many of the onlookers nearby were ordinary farmers. Although these people were not poor peasants in the United States, they were only middle-class people. After the tax deductions they had to pay every year, they could have a good amount of 40,000 or 50,000 US dollars left. Even if they earn 50,000 US dollars a year, one million would have to be earned back in twenty years. Since the United States began to control the exchange rate of the US dollar, there has never been any inflation problem.
It is very likely that the value of a million US dollars now is almost the same as that of ten years later or twenty years later.
In other words, this is purely profitable money. Thinking of this, these people looked at the people from Carlett Company here.
In their opinion, this million US dollars is almost purely profitable by Carlett. You should know that they have been the bidding king of New York's Zusan Exhibition for three consecutive sessions, which is almost like giving away money.
Obviously they did not think that Jiang Hai could raise the second-hand dealer, Carlett.
But this Carlett employee didn't think so. This person's personality is very cautious. He is now moved by the million-dollar sacrificing money, and secondly, he is worried about what to do if he loses.
He will definitely not be able to get a million US dollars, and the company will definitely not be able to pay the other party a million US dollars because of itself.
But if he wants to kneel down and kowtow, he will not be willing to do anything.
In the democratic country of the United States, although the thing that everyone admires the most is money, if they are not forced to give up their self-esteem and kneel down and kowtow, they will not be willing to do anything.
So now he is still struggling. Looking at Jiang Hai's gaze, hesitated and hesitated.
"Hi, Paul, why are you hesitating? This guy gives you free money. Is there any reason not to accept it?"
"That's right, you're too brave. If a young man doesn't want to bet with you, I'll bet with you!"
"One million, what life do you have to make to make it back? What else can I hesitate about?" Seeing that he was hesitating here, there were some people in the crowd who were familiar with him. At this time, they were already shouting loudly. When they heard these people's words, the man named Paul hesitantly licked his lips, and his eyes became firm in an instant.
"Okay, I'll bet with you!" Paul here shouted loudly at Jiang Hai in front of him.
Hearing his words, Jiang Hai shrugged, he just bet, he was not for the one million dollars, but for the sake of his anger.
This guy dares to be arrogant in front of him, and if he doesn't step on him, who else!
After this person agreed, a troublemaker brought the lawyer here over on the spot.
After all, this exhibition is for one thing, and for the other hand, it is for sales. Since it is for sales, a contract must be signed.
When signing the contract, the lawyer must be present. Now Jiang Hai’s bet with this guy named Paul naturally requires a lawyer to sign the agreement before it will take effect. After the lawyer came to ask the opinions of both parties, he did not say much and directly drafted an agreement. Here, it cannot be said that it is a bet, it can only be said to be an agreement.
Then Jiang Hai and the man signed their respective agreements. The two agreed that at the New York Herder Saving Exhibition in April this year, if the cattle from Carlett won the bid, Jiang Hai would give Paul Kaye one million dollars to take effect on the spot.
If the cow from Jiang Hai Manor wins the bidding king, then Paul Kaye will give Jiang Hai a million US dollars, which will take effect on the spot.
There were three copies of the agreement, and Jiang Hai and Kaye each held one, and the lawyer kept one. After all, Jiang Hai and Senti Clive had no idea of continuing to look at it. After all, according to Paul Kaye's words, 80% of the merchants here belonged to their company. Jiang Hai did not want to be pointed at by others here, and he could not buy anything.
Instead of doing this, it would be better to leave directly, so Jiang Hai left here without hesitation.
After the two walked out of the exhibition hall, Jiang Hai originally wanted to go home directly, but after looking at the time, it was only 2:00 in the afternoon, and it was still early. Now when they are back, I don’t know if Robbins and the others have come back.
So the idea of going to see the school that was originally extinguished started to ignite again.
"Anyway, it's okay now. Let's go and see the nearby schools." After a glance at Xianti Clive, Jiang Hai said to her. When she heard Jiang Hai's words, Xianti, who was originally worried about whether Jiang Hai would lose, couldn't help but be stunned.
"It seems that you are not very concerned about your bet this time. Okay, let's go." Shaking his head gently, Sinty Clive smiled at Jiang Hai, and then the two of them stepped onto the car parked at the entrance of the exhibition and headed towards Cambridge.
Cambridge is a city. Although it is broadly divided into Boston, it is a completely different city from Boston, from the perspective of its region and city reports, and is opposite to Boston across the Charles River.
However, although this city is not large, with only about 100,000 people in the population, it is quite famous in the United States and even the whole world, because there are two universities and two super universities here, one of which is the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Speaking of this name, everyone may be a bit Monkey, Massachusetts, and some people call it Massachusetts, and the Polytechnic Institute of this state is the legendary MIT, the most powerful existence in science and engineering.
Another university is Harvard University, a giant in the education industry. If another school produces an American president, it would be a wish that everyone in the world would know, but this university has produced eight American presidents, among which the current president O'Barma came from this university, and the Nobel Prize won, there are hundreds of thousands and millions here.
Well-known alumni, such as Bill Gates and Roosevelt, have studied here. Of course, everyone knows that Bill Gates is not a good student, but who makes them famous?
In the short time, the two of them came to this famous institution. But to be honest, when they walked into this institution, Jiang Hai did not feel anything different. It was also because he really had no love for learning, or because it was winter and there were snow everywhere. Of course, it was also because it was a holiday, and there were really not many students in the school. So what he had seen in novels before, such as the academic atmosphere that hits his face, the ethereal school that shocks the soul, and the touching cultural literacy, etc., there was no such thing as...
Jiang Hai just took a quick walk around and saw some landmark buildings. He took a photo with them on his mobile phone and posted it on his Moments. Recently, he has almost no QQ, but more of it is on WeChat. He has few friends in his WeChat, haha, there are only a few junior and high school classmates who are almost unconnected. Together, there are only a dozen people, and they look really lonely.
"Huh, we should leave too." After taking the last photo, Jiang Hai couldn't help but take a look at the time. Although he didn't like to visit the school, since he had been shopping, he had to take a look at the places he should go. So before he knew it, although he was just visiting the main campus, it took him nearly two hours. There was no way. Harvard is indeed not small. The entire campus is 4,882 acres, and the main campus alone has 224 acres. On the main campus, they visited for nearly an hour. They only looked at the other places, and the sky was already a little dark. After looking at the time on the phone, it was already 4:30 in the afternoon. Jiang Hai exhaled a breath of heat and said to Xiandy Clay.
He had received a call from Robbins to come just now, and they had already returned. As for the task Jiang Hai gave them, there was no problem. Moreover, they were very lucky today. Not only did they catch the lobsters that Jiang Hai wanted, but they also caught a lot of shrimps, crabs and other things, which also gave Jiang Hai's fishermen a preliminary understanding of Jiang Hai's fishing ground.
When natural resources outside were extremely scarce, Jiang Hai was really a paradise.
However, Jiang Hai is not the only one who wants to enter heaven.
Robbins also told Jiang Hai that when they were patrolling today, they saw a fishing boat from afar, but when the fishing boat saw Robbins and the others, they quickly fled. However, they also reminded Jiang Hai that it seemed that someone had already set his sights on his fishing ground and patrolled with a boat. Although it was OK, it took too long after all, and it was easy for others to take advantage of loopholes.
After answering the phone, Jiang Hai was already considering buying a plane. Helicopters and small agricultural aircraft were also worth buying this thing even for patrols.
Of course, even if you want to buy it, you have to talk about it tomorrow, and he still has customers today.
"Well, okay." Hearing Jiang Hai's words, Xianti Clive, who had just helped Jiang Hai's photo, also said with a smile, and then walked outside the school behind Jiang Hai. But just as the two walked out of the school gate, a somewhat reckless figure rushed over from the street in the distance. Jiang Hai's reaction was very fast and he flashed open immediately. However, after dodging, he remembered that Xianti Clive was still by his side, so he immediately pulled her, but it was still a little late. Although he pulled her body over, the man still bumped into her shoulder. (To be continued.)
