Chapter 207 The Finals

Today is the last day of the Hanshan Heroes Tournament, where the overall champion will be determined.

Li Yajing stepped onto the stage and said loudly, "Hello everyone, after more than ten days of competition, all of you heroes have fought one after another, and today we have finally ushered in the most exciting moment."

"Now, please welcome Dao Dachui!"

As soon as Li Yajing finished speaking, cheers erupted in the stadium.

Go, Hammer!

"Big Hammer Bro, you have to work hard! I've bet 10 taels of silver on you winning!"

Dao Dachui strode over, carrying his hammer.

Dao Meichan is now a celebrity in Hanshan; almost everyone in Hanshan knows him. Over the past ten days, Dao Meichan has relied on his great hammer to defeat one expert after another, finally making it to the finals.

"I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I'm doomed to lose today! To the brothers who bet on me to win, I'm really sorry. I don't want to lose either, but if I win, I'll lose my life. Besides, my opponent is Lord Wang's wife, and I dare not hurt her!" Dao Meishan apologized to his supporters repeatedly in his heart.

"Next up, please welcome Mulan!" Li Yajing said, pointing to the entrance.

Go Mulan!

"Mulan is awesome!"

"Mulan is definitely the champion!"

Zhang Jiao also made it to the finals. Unlike Dao Meichan, she had a very easy run. Her opponents were either suffering from diarrhea and their legs were weak, or they were dazed and completely out of sorts when they entered the game. Zhang Jiao thought she had made it to the finals based on her own strength. Little did she know that all her opponents had been rigged.

Zhang Jiao glanced at Wang Wenzhou in the VIP section and thought, "Husband, don't worry, your Zhang Jiao baby will definitely not let you down. The championship is mine."

Wang Wenzhou sat with Liu Rushi on one side and Sheng Lan on the other.

Wang Wenzhou waved to Zhang Jiao and shouted, "Go, Jiao Jiao!"

Zhang Jiao smiled slightly and looked at her husband with deep affection.

Game start.

Zhang Jiao charged at Dao Meichan like a tiger.

Dao Mei's hammer seemed to be under a spell; no matter how he struck, it couldn't hit Zhang Jiao.

The audience members who had bet on the knife-wielding demon to win were so angry that they started cursing.

"Knife Demon, dust off the grass! Don't hold back the water!"

"Dao Mei, are you even a man? You can't even beat a woman?"

"Knife Demon, you'd better not pee standing up anymore!"

Dao Meishan smiled bitterly to himself. Go ahead and curse me; I've already lost all sense of shame. No matter how much you curse, I'm still going to lose.

"Damn it!" Qu Jiaxin cursed, "What's going on? Why is Dao Dachui acting like a sick cat?"

Sitting next to him, Zhao Zhengxi laughed and said, "Serves you right! I told you to bet on Mulan to win, but you wouldn't listen and insisted on betting on Dao Dachui. Don't you think about it? Mulan is Wang Qingtian's concubine. The people of Hanshan have received so many favors from Wang Qingtian. Who would dare to hurt Mulan?"

"Slap! Slap! Slap!" Qu Jiaxin slapped his thighs hard a few times, regretting, "Brother Zhao, why didn't you say that sooner!"

Zhao Zhengxi said with a smile, "I told you, but you wouldn't listen! Ever since the finals started, I've bet on Mulan to win every time she participates, and I've already won over five hundred taels of silver. I told you to bet with me, but you wouldn't listen. Can you blame me for that?"

"Sigh..." Qu Jiaxin was filled with regret. He should have listened to his good brother's advice.

On the arena, the match continued. Hua Mulan displayed formidable power, while Dao Dachui could only parry.

Go Mulan!

"Mulan is awesome!"

The audience shouted themselves hoarse.

Zhang Jiao has really gained a lot of fans these past few days of competition. She's beautiful and skilled; how could any man not like her? If everyone didn't know that Zhang Jiao was Wang Qingtian's wife, there would definitely be many men pursuing her.

"Go, Jiaojiao!" Wang Wenzhou, with one arm around Liu Rushi and the other holding Sheng Lan, cheered loudly for his baby.

Liu Rushi said irritably, "You fatso, you acted so well!"

"Hehe!" Wang Wenzhou chuckled. He could fool anyone, but he couldn't fool Liu Rushi.

Sheng Lan glanced at Liu Rushi, then shook her head with a wry smile. These days, the master had taken Liu Rushi everywhere he went. Judging from Liu Rushi's demeanor, she had accepted the master. It seemed the master would soon take her as a concubine, and Sheng Lan's position in the master's heart would be snatched away by Liu Rushi.

"How much money did that fatso swindle this time?" Liu Rushi asked.

Wang Wenzhou's large hand slipped inside the opening in Liu Rushi's clothes, and he said with a smile, "Rushi, Rushi, keep your voice down. I'm not cheating you out of money. It's gambling, there are wins and losses."

"Go ahead and try to fool the ghosts!" Liu Rushi said irritably.

"Hehe!" Wang Wenzhou said with a smile, "It's not much, probably only a little over 200 million taels of silver."

"Ah..." Not only was Liu Rushi's mouth agape in surprise, but Sheng Lan was also equally astonished.

Wang Wenzhou explained, “There is no business in the world that is more profitable than gambling. Most people like to get something for nothing, and gambling is the easiest way to get something for nothing. Of course, it depends on luck. Although gamblers lose more than they win in casinos, there are always one or two lucky ones who can win a lot of money. With such role models, gamblers will flock to it like moths to a flame.”

"Give me one million taels of silver," Liu Rushi suddenly said.

"Huh?" Wang Wenzhou was surprised. "Ru Ru, what's wrong with you? You're asking for a million taels of silver right off the bat?"

"What? You can't bear to part with it?" Liu Rushi asked irritably.

"If you want money, how could I not give it to you? Don't worry, I'll give you a silver note tomorrow." Wang Wenzhou dared not offend Liu Rushi, for if he did, she would not allow him to touch her, kiss her, or even sleep with her.

Sheng Lan suddenly felt a pang of jealousy. The master was too good to Miss Liu. She asked for one million taels of silver without even asking, and the master gave it to her directly.

"Thank you!" Liu Rushi smiled slightly and kissed Wang Wenzhou's big mouth with her small lips.

"Don't you want to know what I'm going to do with a million taels of silver?" Liu Rushi asked softly.

Wang Wenzhou proudly said, "Isn't the purpose of a man earning money to spend on the woman he loves? Here's the money, buy whatever you want."

Wang Wenzhou noticed out of the corner of his eye that Sheng Lan's face looked very unpleasant.

I was such an idiot! I'll never let both of my aunties be around at the same time again. If I flatter one of them, the other one will definitely be unhappy.

Wang Wenzhou kissed Sheng Lan and said, "Lazy Lan, I'll also give you one million taels. Buy whatever you want."

"I don't want to!" Sheng Lan said, her eyes filled with tears.

"Lazy Lan, it's normal for a husband to give his wife money, why don't you do it?" Wang Wenzhou was heartbroken. I'm such an idiot!

After much persuasion, Wang Wenzhou finally managed to make Sheng Lan laugh.

"Sigh..." Liu Rushi sighed softly. This rascal, what a sentimental scoundrel!

Liu Rushi said calmly, "I am an orphan, raised by my adoptive mother. Now, there are bandits in the Northwest and rebels in Liaodong, and people are living in misery. Many people are selling their children. I want to send people to buy some children and raise them."

Wang Wenzhou flattered her: "My Ruru is truly a kind and good girl who has the world in her heart, cares for the country and its people."

"Hmph!" Sheng Lan snorted and said, "I will also send people to adopt orphans."

Wang Wenzhou wanted to slap himself across the face. "I was so stupid! I'd rather die than let these two old ladies meet again!"
