Steven smiled so widely that his face hurt, but he still could not control himself and kept grinning from ear to ear.
To be honest, even at the peak of his wealth, he did not have $200,000.
He was a grown man who could not save money and did not have the habit of saving money.
He was actually prepared to lose that $20,000.
He felt that he was too greedy betting on Xiao Qi to place in the top three, since it was Xiao Qi's first competition.
He always had such a rash personality, which was the reason why he finally divorced his ex-wife.
They were both too impulsive. Although they loved each other, they could not spend their days together.
But now, Xiao Qi was first place! Hahahaha......
Steven could not stop smiling.
Xiao Shengzhou was also very surprised. He did not bet on horses. His family education was quite strict and did not allow him to gamble on such things. He was willing to let Ji Gu co to participate in the competition to give Ji Gu a chance and also give Xiao Qi a chance.
Ji Gu was a racehorse and should go on the racetrack once.
And Xiao Qi had been training very hard. He had seen it with his own eyes.
There was also Steven's daily urging.
Xiao Shengzhou agreed to let Xiao Qi bring Ji Gu to participate in the competition, but did not expect that they would actually win the championship. Was the championship so easy to obtain?
So inexplicable spectators in the stands who had bought No. 4 were excited and crazy. The odds were 10 tis, there were 5 tis odds for betting No. 4 to place in the top three. It was crazy profit.
Of course, most people lost money.
Liu Shaowei and Li Maomao were equally surprised and silent.
Liu Shaowei felt that this world was too strange. It was hard to persuade Su Xiaoxiao to just participate in the competition, nothing too impressive, there were rarely any celebrity jockeys in equestrian events, the focus was usually on the horses. But she actually won first place now? Really first place?
Li Maomao was also very silent. She liked watching horse racing and felt that such competitive events were still very elegant. And she had also persuaded herself earlier that the girl was just a perforr, she was the audience, perforrs had to try their best to please the audience even at the cost of their lives, so it was nothing. But that girl actually won the championship?
The sponsor of this horse racing event rewarded the first place with $100,000.
Ji Gu's value imdiately rose after the competition ended, and people ca to contact Xiao Shengzhou as soon as the competition was over.
The value of stallions was very high. They could be used as stud horses to breed many offspring, while mares were not so good. Mares could only get pregnant by themselves, and it was hard to say whether they could recover to their pre-pregnant condition after giving birth.
So generally there were only stallions on the racetrack.
After such a competition, professionals analyzed that this horse Ji Gu did not even use its full strength to easily win the championship. The girl jockey did not even whip it. In the end, it easily exerted strength to the first place and opened up a large distance from the second place horse.
So despite being a small competition, Ji Gu's value was instantly appraised at around $5 million.
The competition ended in the morning, and there were brand activities in the afternoon. Xiao Qi changed into a second set of red and white riding gear to participate in the activities, mainly to receive prize money and take pictures.
The first place prize was $100,000, about 700,000 RMB. Plus she bet on herself to place in the top three, 800,000 RMB instantly turned into 4 million RMB.
It suddenly felt like her hands were shaking at having so much money all of a sudden.
In the afternoon, her red rider gear made an appearance. The brand side knew she was a first year university student, so they gave her a backpack gift. The quality looked really good, very durable. With Xiao Qi’s strength, she tugged it and there was no unraveling or breaking.
There was a professional photographer there to take pictures of her. Li Maomao was actually right. Generally in such competitions, it was the horses that beca famous, while the riders were not so famous. At least there were very few equestrian riders who beca celebrities, because the height of riders in equestrian events could not be too tall, they were petite. Training racehorses was also very hard work. Those who could win championships also usually had average looks, at least rarely stood out in terms of appearance.
But Xiao Qi greatly exceeded expectations of the industry. This 17-year-old Hua Country girl was an authentic Hua Country person. She almost single-handedly filled the gap in the Hua Country equestrian circle. Otherwise they would not have previously let an overseas Hua person represent the Hua Country rider. There were simply too few excellent equestrian riders that could be found dostically in Hua Country.
Not only did Xiao Qi win the championship, her looks were also very good. She was very young. Wearing a red top riding outfit and white pants and boots, her skin was very fair. She looked very young, but had an aura about her. She did not smile much, a very serious little girl, with a kind of lofty and noble feeling about her. This kind of temperant was very rare.
In fact, Xiao Qi was simply not good at participating in this kind of activity, nor was she used to this kind of attention under flashing lights. She could only put on a serious face, listen more, watch more, speak less. At the sa ti she was also a bit excited by the feeling of suddenly getting rich.
She was a bit lightheaded inside, 4 million plus, if in her hotown Gumula Village, it would probably be money she couldn’t spend her whole life.
Feeling sowhat smug inside, she could only appear more and more serious on the surface, pursing her little mouth looking very unfriendly. This girl in the red riding outfit appeared on a page of the Capital City Evening News.
Riding a horse, very majestic.
After leaving the racetrack and returning to the hotel, Xiao Qi seed to only show her excitent then.
Steven had been grinning since the end of the competition, never closing his mouth once. His emotions were written all over his face as he madly video called all his old friends, sotis asking Xiao Qi to make an appearance in the video.
Xiao Shengzhou was also in a pretty good mood.
Steven beca more arrogant, acting as if he had more money than he could spend. He said he wanted to treat everyone to a al to properly celebrate after the competition, at the most expensive and delicious restaurant.
Xiao Qi was also smiling, more relaxed now in front of the chairman and coach. After showering when they got back to the hotel and changing into her own T-shirt and jeans, her half-dry hair was tied up in little tufts that looked especially perky.
That night was very relaxed, and they did not have to worry about eating bad food either.
The group intended to go to Gui Street to eat crayfish.
Sitting in the car there, the Capital City gave a magnificent feeling along the way, and also felt prosperous, especially when passing the city gates. There was also a strange sense of pride.
Xiao Qi, now worth over 4 million RMB, had an idea. She wanted to buy an apartnt in the Capital City.
One towering high-rise building after another flashed by outside the window... Xiao Qi watched longingly, if she could really buy property in the Capital City, that would be aweso!
The driver spoke with a Capital City accent and proudly recounted being a native of old Capital City, “In my day, we got up in the morning to the sound of the national flag raising. My ho was around this area. Later it got demolished, at first I thought the relocation place was far, but now it’s not that far, outside the Third Ring Road. Don’t look down on the Third Ring Road, even one square ter of my place there costs 100,000 RMB now, hehe.”
Gazing out the window with the heart of a rich lady, listening to the driver speak, Xiao Qi humbly calculated the math in her mind. 100,000 RMB per square ter, 40 square ters would be 4 million RMB. She thought to herself... The driver said his relocated ho had over 70 square ters, so he was now a wealthy man worth over 7 million RMB driving them in this beat-up taxi.
Xiao Qi’s ambitious ideas deflated a bit...
