Rebirth of England
Chapter 10 Unpopular?
In fact, Barron's original idea was to raise more than 2 million pounds of funds from the family, so that he would be sure to use the money to get back more than 35 million pounds of funds through the capital market within six months to save Devon. The Duke of Hill family.
But the reality is that the funds he can currently use are only part of the cash directly held by the family, which accounts for a very small share, only 100,000 pounds.
With this capital, it is indeed difficult to achieve one's goals in the short term - even if it is investing in start-ups and doing venture capital work, take Internet companies such as Google and Facebook, which can be completed a hundred times smoothly from start-up to The exit of venture capital is often not achieved within a year and a half.
In the end, in desperation, Barron had only one choice - to expand the scale of his 100,000 pounds as much as possible through World Cup betting.
In fact, this is not difficult to think of. After all, the World Cup is about to begin. This time in the Asahi World Cup, only England in the British Isles has entered the finals.
As one of the countries that are crazy about football, the recent newspapers have reported a lot about the World Cup. Therefore, as a reborn person, it is very normal to think of using betting to make a fortune.
And the Asahi World Cup itself is very suitable for Barron to choose to place bets. On the one hand, when it came out, this World Cup was still very familiar to Chinese people. Not only was it a World Cup held at home, but the start time was also very familiar to Chinese people. It is said to be very friendly; in addition, because this World Cup is the only one in which the Chinese team has entered the finals, they are more familiar with the results of the game than in other tournaments.
And at the end of the day, when betting on this kind of World Cup, you can usually get higher odds only if you are an underdog. Because of well-known reasons, this World Cup has a lot of upsets. If nothing else, it is enough to just bet on the match between South Korea and South Korea - after all, normal countries often do not use the "home field advantage" so nakedly. Degree.
…
Betting on football matches is very popular in England. After all, William Hill, which is well-known in the sports betting industry, is a British company.
In addition to this company, many other powerful gambling companies also have many betting stations in London, so it is very convenient just for betting.
After arriving in London, Barron came to his apartment.
Barron's apartment in London is also a family property. After all, the Duke of Devonshire family is a long-established British aristocracy. Although the family's overall economic strength is now slightly weaker, their ancestors are still rich. Correspondingly , it is also very normal to have a residence in London.
Of course, in this regard, it is still far inferior to the Duke of Westminster, which is also a ducal family and claims to own half of London.
After returning to London, Barron couldn't help but think of the girl in the hotel room when he first came to this time and space.
At that time, he just felt that the other person looked familiar, but because he had just "came over" at that time and was greatly shocked, he did not delve into it too much.
And when I met the then-Crown Prince of Wales at the family funeral that day, I suddenly realized that the girl with whom I had a one-night stand was actually the future Princess Kaiser!
This discovery surprised Barron. After all, although he had no special knowledge of the British royal family in his previous life, Cather's wedding to the prince caused a sensation at that time. At that time, the Internet was already extremely popular. He has also read many related reports.
If I remember correctly, Cather should have been studying at the University of St. Andrews in Scotland at this time and had already met the prince. How could he appear in a London nightclub and have an affair with his... predecessor while drunk? What about such a "friendship"?
Since he couldn't figure it out, Barron stopped thinking about it. After all, if the development of history is followed, in nine years, the girl will marry into the royal family and become Princess Kaiser.
And this incident itself was an affair with his predecessor. Well, at most, he saw the other person with his own eyes. The most important thing for him now is to think about how to make money next.
The British also have many traditions regarding the death of relatives. Although it is not as exaggerated as the three-year mourning period in ancient China, as children, they generally will not attend parties and entertainment activities for a few months to half a year...
Of course, now, this restriction is getting smaller and smaller, but this time Barron came to London, he was still very low-key. He asked Ramos to help buy recent reports about the World Cup, and he also checked online Some information about this Asahi World Cup.
Tomorrow, May 31st, is the opening of the Asahi World Cup. The opening game of the day will be France, the host of the last World Cup, facing Senegal.
Seeing this schedule, Barron's eyes lit up, because he knew very well that in this game, the host of the last World Cup and the eventual champion, the French team, lost the game!
So Barron immediately checked the odds of this game, which made him happy.
Because of this game, the mainstream odds are 1:1.2 for France to win and 1:15 for Senegal!
In other words, if you buy the French team for 100 pounds to win, you can finally get 120 pounds, and you win... 20 pounds.
But if you buy a Senegal victory for 100 pounds, you can end up with 1,500 pounds!
From this odds, it can also be seen that most people are optimistic about the French team winning. This is not surprising, after all, the French team was the winning team in the last World Cup - although some of the weirdness in the final that they defeated Brazil will still be mentioned many years later, but There is no doubt about the strength of the French team.
Most of the French team participating in the Asahi World Cup this time are players from the last World Cup. Even if it is very likely that Zidane, the soul of the French team, will not be able to play in tomorrow's game, but Senegal? Speaking of this country, I am afraid not many people know that it is located in West Africa. In terms of popularity, it is as good as the French team.
Therefore, this World Cup is really amazing. The opening game was a big upset, which can be regarded as an indication that this World Cup is unusual.
After confirming this matter, Barron became excited.
He now has 100,000 pounds in funds, and he has the urge to bet all 100,000 pounds on Senegal's victory in tomorrow's opening game.
But taking a deep breath, he tried his best to resist the urge.
After all, although he had a deep impression of this game in his previous life, he could even remember that when he was in high school, he and his dormitory buddies climbed over the wall to watch this game...
But after all, although so far, it seems that the time and space he knows is no different from his previous life - but the fact that his predecessor actually had something to do with the later Princess Kaiser made him a little wary. Get up, what if?
So in the end, he decided not to go all-in for this game, but to verify first whether the result of the game would be the same as in his memory.
