Chapter 1586 Ticket Collection
Dongfang Jianye said, "As far as I know, the February Group has coveted our Huaxia for a long time. This time, they came aggressively and prepared for a long time; otherwise, they wouldn't have so much liquid capital."
Ye Bufan smiled coldly, "Since they've come, they should leave all their money here. Our Huaxia isn't a place just anyone can come to as they please."
Sima Pingcuo said, "Little Fan is right. Our Huaxia is not for a few Bangbang Country guys to run wild in."
Ye Bufan then asked, "Besides the February Group, who placed the remaining 100 billion in bets?"
Changsun Cangsong said, "The second largest bet, 10 billion, came from Xuanyuan Pavilion, placed by a person named Huo Jian.
The third largest bet was Yang Zixiong, for 2 billion. The rest were miscellaneous amounts of 300 million and 500 million, totaling approximately 200 billion."
"Huo Jian and Yang Zixiong, huh? Interesting. Since they're sending money, we'll take it."
Ye Bufan was slightly surprised by Huo Jian's 10 billion bet, not expecting the people from the Heavenly Palace to be without money.
But that was all; no matter how much was invested, it would all be his money eventually.
Suddenly, an idea struck him, "Oh, right, how many people bet on me to win?"
"This…" Changsun Cangsong looked a bit embarrassed, "Not too many. It's only about a billion or so in total."
"That little?" Ye Bufan chuckled, "Does everyone have so little confidence in me?"
"Not exactly," Dongfang Jianye explained, "Our people here have confidence in you, as do some other aristocratic families.
However, if we were to bet, wouldn't that be like taking money from you? So everyone just keeps that thought to themselves; no one placed a bet.
Those who did bet were simply greedy for the high odds, taking a 'let's see' approach."
"I understand."
Ye Bufan nodded. Those on his opposing side bet on him to lose, while those on his side felt awkward taking his money, leading to the current situation. This was actually for the best.
As they spoke, they arrived at Yanbo Lake. After parking their cars in the temporarily designated parking lot, he walked in, surrounded by a crowd of admirers.
Subsequently, other people who had heard the news arrived one after another, but upon hearing the ticket price of 100,000 per ticket, many were deterred.
After all, this was no small sum; it was countless times more expensive than a superstar's concert.
Before long, people from the February Group arrived.
Park Jae-sang and his entourage approached the entrance, only to be stopped by Dongfang Renjie and a group of bodyguards.
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
“Please stop, everyone. This is for ticketed viewing.”
It turned out that under Dongfang Jianye's arrangement, he was in charge of collecting tickets here.
Park Jae-sang and the others' expressions darkened. They hadn't expected to be charged for their own challenge.
Park Ji-sung was the first to jump out. With the people of Yunxia Mountain as his backing, this fellow was incredibly arrogant.
"Kid, are you blind? You dare to stop anyone? Hurry up and move aside! Don't you know we're here for the challenge?"
Dongfang Renjie, however, was neither angry nor annoyed. He smiled slightly, "Those from Yunxia Mountain can certainly enter, but everyone else must buy a ticket."
Park Ji-sung shouted, "Kid, do you know what you're saying? You dare to sell tickets to just anyone? Aren't you afraid the Grand Elder will slap you to death?"
"How is that possible? I've already said that people from Yunxia Mountain don't need tickets, but miscellaneous people like you must buy tickets."
Dongfang Renjie smiled, unhurriedly, "As for the Grand Elder you mentioned? I'm truly not afraid!
A dignified Heaven Rank Expert is here to participate in a challenge. How could he possibly make a move against a small fry like me? That would be too embarrassing."
His words were skillful, deflecting and countering. Even if the people from Yunxia Mountain wanted to get angry, they couldn't find a reason with everyone watching.
After all, first, he didn't charge you a ticket, placing your status very high and his own very low. How could you possibly make a move?
Moreover, Hong Sihai and his group, being very proud, naturally disdained to bother with such small matters and simply waved their hands and walked in.
This made things awkward. All the people from Yunxia Mountain entered, while the people from the February Group remained outside.
As for trying to sneak in by pretending to be someone else, don't even think about it. After all, the people from Yunxia Mountain, dressed in long robes and exuding a powerful Aura, were like having words written on their faces; they were not something ordinary people could impersonate.
Furthermore, Park Jae-sang and Park Ji-sung were already Dongfang Renjie's key targets, making it impossible for them to sneak in.
Seeing this situation, Park Ji-sung immediately flew into a rage, "Why are you charging us for tickets? Who gave you the authority to collect tickets?"
Dongfang Renjie smiled, "What? This Yanbo Lake was originally the property of our Oriental Family. What's wrong with me collecting tickets? Is there anything wrong?"
Park Jae-sang said impatiently, "Alright, the Grand Elder and the others have already gone in. Don't waste words with him; just buy the tickets."
Park Ji-sung snorted coldly, "Do you really think we're short on your petty cash? Tell me, how much is one ticket?"
Dongfang Renjie held up one finger, "100,000 per person!"
Park Ji-sung was immediately startled, and then (This chapter is not finished, please turn the page) he became furious.
"This shabby place costs 100,000 per person? Why don't you just rob us?"
In his opinion, even if tickets were sold, they should only be 30 or 50 yuan. How could they be so expensive?
Dongfang Renjie's Face still held a smile, "The place isn't important; what you're watching is important. If you come tomorrow, I guarantee you free entry."
"Who would come to your shabby place tomorrow?"
Park Ji-sung was furious. He waved his hand at the bodyguards behind him, "Break in for me! Let's see who dares to stop us."
At his command, several bodyguards behind him immediately charged forward aggressively, but as soon as they got close, they flew backward like straw.
Dongfang Renjie clapped his hands, his expression darkening, "You want to force your way in, do you? You'll need to have the strength for that."
He was now a Heaven Rank Expert, so how could he put these people in his eyes?
"I…"
Park Ji-sung was instantly dumbfounded. Their biggest reliance was originally the people from Yunxia Mountain, but they had already gone in. They couldn't possibly stand at the door and call for help; that would be too humiliating.
Moreover, with the arrogant personalities of Hong Sihai and the others, it was uncertain whether they would even bother to help them.
At this moment, Park Jae-sang said, "Alright, stop making trouble; just buy the tickets."
As he spoke, he also felt a pang of pain. To make a grand show today, he had brought about thirty or forty accompanying personnel. 100,000 per person would add up to three or four million.
Normally, this would be a small sum for the February Group, but now their liquid capital had all gone into the betting pool, and they didn't have much money left.
But there was no other way now. They couldn't fight their way in, so they could only obediently buy tickets and enter.
Park Ji-sung pulled out a bank card and said angrily, "Isn't it just 100,000 a ticket? What's the big deal? Buy the tickets!"
Dongfang Renjie smiled slightly, "I'm sorry, it's 200,000 a ticket now."
Park Ji-sung angrily said, "What? Wasn't it 100,000 just now?"
Dongfang Renjie sneered, "'Just now' was 'just now.' For those of you who tried to force your way in, doubling the price is already very cheap."
"I…"
Park Ji-sung was speechless. If he had known this, he wouldn't have let the bodyguards force their way in.
Park Jae-sang stepped forward and said, "Little brother, don't go too far. We are the February Group from Bangbang Country."
He wanted to scare the other party with his name, to save some Face, and ideally to get in for free. After all, foreign businessmen like himself enjoyed many privileges in Huaxia.
